Haileybury has formally organized a branch of the League of Nations Socieâ€" ty. Canon F. H. Hincks is the president of the Haileybury branch and Mr. Geo. T. Smith is the secretaryâ€"treasurer. The aims, objects and purposes of, the society were noted in a recent issue of ‘The Advance briefly and roughly, the purposes of the League of Nations Soâ€" ciety are to continue propaganda against war and in support of the work of the League of Nations and similar bodies whose purpose is to uphold arbiâ€" tration in preference to war and eduâ€" cate the nations to fairplay, justice ana friendship. It is to be hoped that the idea catches on in Germany and that that country has a great number of active branches. Germany needs such societies much more than Canada who has always followed the ways of peace so long as this could be done and righteâ€" ousness maintained at the same time. HAILEYBURY HAS BRANCH LEAGUE OF NATIONS soCIETY However, everyone will wish the Haileybury branch of the League of Nations Society every success and proâ€" gress. There is no doubt that the new branch has excellent officers. The executive will consist of Mayor W. Charbonneau, Geo. T. Hamilton, J. . Leishman, R. A. McConnell, and Capt. Clarke, of the Salvation Army. The new branch.is starting out with a memâ€" bership of 33, and it is expected that this number will be largely increased in the near future though there is no imâ€" mediate intention, it is understood, to start any campaign for membership. 30.000°° PRIZE MONEY for PICTURES Kellogg‘s ALLâ€" By neglecting constipation, body isons get in their deadly work. eadaches, listlessness, cloudy complexions, which are the first signs, soon are followed by factors that wreck health, ruin ambitions and steal beauty.

Practically every matter before the executive was one in which the genâ€" eral public is widely interested whether the public realizes this or not. It may be said here that the resort owners and outfitters who form thel Ontario Tourist Trade Association can not do anything to help themselvesl without giving material service to this North Land. Accordingly, they should. have the hearty support of the people in general in any moves that they may make. | One of the questions before the executive of the Tourist Trade Assoâ€" ciation last week was the matter of the destruction of the deer of the country by wolves. From the reports given out in regard to the meeting it would appear that the association feels like Jack Miner that the country has to choose between the deer and the wolves, and that the preservation of the deer naturally should be the one consideration. The recommendations of the resort owners and outfitters will be submitâ€" ted to the Department of Lands and Forests shortly. In regard to the hunting of wolves it was decided to ask the Government to allow nonâ€"reâ€" sident hunters to hunt wolves in Onâ€" tarieo with a special license issued at the discretion of the department, all such hunters to be accompanied by a duly licensed guide. It will be suggested to the departâ€" ment that the present license fees for moose and deer, as paid by nonâ€" residents, be changed. The association would have the dee> and small game license set at $25 with the combined moose and deer license to remain at $41 as at present. In view of the everâ€"increasing tourist traffic and the necessity of preserving the beauty of our lakes and streams the Department of Lands and Forests will be asked to consider the preservaâ€" tion of the timber along the lakes ana streams for purposes of water conâ€" trol and for the protection and propaâ€" gation of fish. The executive will recommend that the trees be conservd a certain numâ€" to ensure this. Other dealt with included the establishment of a fish hatchery in the district of Nipissing, the prohibition of the sale of gill and seine nets except to a holder of a fishâ€" ing license as prescribed by the deâ€" partment; the taking of steps by the government to control the slaughter of gcame by lumber operators.

In a case tried in a Northern Ontario court the same evil was referred to. The judge said some | of the witnesses had admitted they were Regrettable Amount of Perjury in Evidence Recently there has appeared to be a growing tendency to disregard the truth when a lie seems more conveniâ€" ent. There have always been liars, but to many it appears now that this habit of lying has found its way much more frequently than before into courts of law. The matter is ably and interâ€" estingly dealt with in an editorial in The North Bay Nugget last week a> follows:â€" "not scrupulous about the truth," and. he was especially severe with one man who acknowledged he only told the truth whenever it pleased him. It was "rather shocking to hear a man taix that way in the witness box," adeclared his lordship. This habit of lying oneâ€" self out of an awkward situation apâ€" pears to be getting increasingly comâ€" mon, and it is a very serious thing for the country and for the individuals concerned. Such a dishonorable expediâ€" ent proclaims the coward. Under all cireumstances the truth should be told, but particularly so under oath. How has it come about that people have got lax in this respect? Why should it be necessary for justices to draw public attention to the prevalence of this morâ€" al failure? The conscience does not deteriorate all of a sudden, and that is why it is so important for young people to watch themselves and guard against any tendency to prevarication. The habit of lyingâ€"and there is none which is more damaging to the characterâ€"is so easy to fall into. Often the truth is hard to tell; it is so much more conâ€" venient to cover up a fault or, in some cases, to spare the feelings of others by sayving which we know to be false."

In view of the Silver Medal Novice Boxing Tournament to be hed at " imâ€" mins shortly and for which a large number of entrants are now in, training and in view of a recent question by Mr. A. Laprairie as to whether or not there would be interest in plan to have a number of boy from the schools take regular boxing lessons, the following reference to boxing for school pupiis should be of special local interest. The item is from The Toronto Star and and reads as followsâ€" "If some people condemn boxing for boys, there are others who are of the contrary opinion, and who endorse the proposal of the Hon. Forbes Godfrey that boxing should be a part of the physical instructor in the local public schools. The opinion of many princiâ€" pals and teachers that such an instrucâ€" tion would have a tendency to cause boys to fight amongst themselves and consequently be of harm to their habâ€" its and standards of boyhood, are deâ€" nied.

"I never saw a boy yet who had not been benâ€" efitted by boxing. There is nothing in boxing to cause rowdyism," he declarâ€" ed. "D. R.

WALKED ELEVEN HUNDRED MILES TO GET EMPLOYMENT Some years ago three men waiked about two thousand miles to reacnhn Timmins and secure employment here. They came from Nova Scotia and were not so fortunate as the young fellow referred to below who was able to reach his destination and secure practically immediate work, while the men who came to Timmins had a difficult time even after they reached here, though eventually they secured employment and, as might be expected from men of such courage and resource, did well. The latest story of a long walk to work is told by The Northern News, of Kirkland Lake, as follows:â€" "The exploit of a young Nova Scotia= who arrived in town last week is worthy of note. Hearing from his brother that there was work here, he started out on foot to reach the "land of promâ€" ise" with $13 in his pocket. Twentyâ€" seven days were required to cover the 1,800 miles or more, 1,100 of which were covered on foot. The whole distance from Guysboro County, Nova Scotia, to Montreal was traversed in this manner, as were also several stretches between Montreal and Kirkland Lake, including the 33 miles from Englehart on. Two pairs of shoes were completely worn out on the journey and, needless to say, the stake of $13 did not last long. On arriâ€" val in Kirkland Lake, it was found that the brother who had written to him itc come, had returned to the East. Howâ€" ever, a job has already been secured and, having exhibited such a spirit of determination, this young man should do well in a country offering such great opportunities."
