The picture was suggested by Hugh Wiley‘s ‘‘Staurday Evening Post" story, **The Spoils of War,""‘ and was directed by Edward Sutherland, unâ€" der the editorial supervision of Garâ€" nett Weston. _ The supporting cast includes Chester Conkin, Richard Arâ€" len, Louise Lorrain and Gertrude Asâ€" ter. Probably no funnier seenes have ever been filmed than the war seâ€" quences of this picture. (The story is a trueâ€"toâ€"life comedy, rather than a burlesque on the war, and was made technically correct under the constant eye of military officials who saw serâ€" vice overseas, at the front. ‘‘Behind the Front‘‘ is a Paraâ€" mount comedy of the A.E.F. featurâ€" ing Wallace Beery and Raymond Hatâ€" ton as a pair of buddies who go to France to ‘‘kan the kaiser,‘‘ but end up behind the front, and Mary Brian, a Red Cross worker, about whom the romance centers. In the words of Hollywood‘s most brilliant comedy eritics, ‘‘Behind the Front‘‘ to be shown at the Maple Leaf theatre, Schumacher, on Friday and Saturday of this week, Feb. 4th and 5th, starts from the first flicker with a chuckle, works into a big, continuâ€" eus laugh, and ends with a grand ‘‘wow.‘‘ Room 4â€"E.

The sympathy of all their friends here will be extended to Mr. M. Greer and family in their loss through the death of his father. â€"_The late John Greer was one of the bestâ€"known and most highlyâ€"reâ€" spected of the farmers of the Charâ€" teris, Que. district, where he had spent practically all of his long and useful life. It was just three months and eight days previous to the death of the late John Greer that his wife passed to rest. (The funeral of the late John Greer took place at Charteris, Que., on Janâ€" uary 2lst, and was very largely atâ€" tended, relatives and friends coming from a wide area. The profusion of beautiful floral tributes told of the estecem in which the late Mr. Greer was held and the sympathy felt for the family in their loss. + Further particulars were received this week regarding the death of Mr. John Greer, father of Mr. M. Greer, formerly Chief of Police of Timmins. The late John Greer was ninetyâ€"one years of age at the time of his death. He had been ill only five days before he went to Ottawa to the hospital there, where he contracted qpneumonia, passing away five days afterwards. He died at 3.30 p.m. on January 19th just a few hours after Mr. M. Greer reached his ‘bedside. Mr. M. Greer was notified of his father‘s serious condition and left here on the 18th.

The production of lead in Canada has grown from $3,828,000.00 in 1921 to $23,002,000.00 in 1925. Ontario‘s production of lead in 1925 was only $675,225.00.
