Viceâ€"presidentâ€"Jack Walker, Treasurerâ€"Gego. N. Ross. District Trustseâ€"V. Woodbury. Directorsâ€"Gea. Lake, A. T. H. Tayâ€" lor and Reg. Smith. The secretary for the ensuing term will be elected by the directors. For Monday evening‘s session Presiâ€" dent W. Rinn cccupied the chair and sarried the proceedings with his usual efficiency. A special feature of the meeting was the community singing, and an extra special feature of the singing was the revised and â€" modernized version of "Clementine," which was sung with particularly deep feeling in spois by some of the Kiwanis. This song, to the ol favourite tune of "Clementing," was worded as follows:â€"â€" â€"Clementineâ€" Telephoned ths blooming market Every morning just at nine. Bought a big block of Noranada ‘Cause she thought it was a mine. â€"GCNHROrUuUSâ€" Oh, your money! oh, your money! Oh, your money, Clementine! It is lost and gone forever! Awful sorry Clementine. â€"Repeat Chorusâ€" Got a message from her broker That more margin was in line. She got turned down by her banker Lost her shirt in the decline. â€"â€"CRoOorusâ€" Now she‘s broke and lost her money Matrimony I decline. When she was rich I sure did love her Dreadful sorry, Clementine. Thought she‘d try another whirl. Took a chance on Sherrittâ€"Gordon. Now she IS a sorry girl. .~â€"â€"Chorusâ€"â€" Another specially pleasing part of the evening‘s programme was the piano music provided by Mr. Geo. Jenkins whose pleasing pianoforte solos deâ€" lighted all and won the highest apâ€" nroval. + â€"Chorusâ€" Ssome one said they‘d reached the botâ€" Still another enjovable item on the list for the evening was the impromptu address by W. H. Wilson, more familiâ€" arly known as "Sceotty." In the course of his remarks it developed that hs held the outstanding and unique disâ€" tinction of having attended every meetâ€" ing of the Kiwanis Club from the time ne joined 54 years ago up to the present timeé. GCONVIGTION ANNULLED BY DIVISIONAL GOUR! H. E. Harcourt, Who Was Found Guilty Last June is Acquitted by Finding of Higher Court at Toronto This Week. Despatches this week from say that the First Divisional Court aAt Osgoode Hall on Monday quashed the conviction of Harry E. Harcourt who was found guilty on June 26 last on a charge of unlawfully making, circulatâ€" ing, publishing or concurring in false statements relative to Jackson Manion Mines, of which he was managing dirâ€" ector. It was charged he knew these documents to be false in material parâ€" ticulars with a view of inducing persons to become shareholders or with intent to defraud shareholders or creditors. Justice Mddleton, who writes the judgâ€" ment for the court, says the whole course of proceedings was to fix guilt upon the accused on the theory that he must have known the information received from the mine manager was unreliable. Justice Middleton points out that "a man may honestly misrepresentâ€"that is to say, he may state as true someâ€" thing he believes to be true. If he has given a warranty or entered into a civil contract founded on the assertion of the fact in question, he may be liable in a civil action to be defeated, but that would not be sufficient for the present purpose. Here you must be satisfied that that which is alleged to have been misrepresented was known to the deâ€" fendants to be false, and in acting upon that knowledge and with deliberate inâ€" tent to deceive and defraud he did that which is alleged to have constituted the criminal offence for which he is now on his trial." "His crime is his guilty knowledge and nothing else," continued His Lordâ€" ship. "He is charged with personal dishonesty and you must be able to affirm that y evidence before convicting him." He finds "Harcourt was not A criminal because he accepted and beâ€" lieved the information given him by Thompson (the mine manager)."

BLACK AND WHITE PIERROTS TO GIVE ANOTHER CONCERT Those who enjoyed the previous conâ€". cert given by the Black and White: Pierrots will no doubt be anxious to secure tickets for the new show by these talented artists. The new conâ€" cert will feature, "Cinderella." This is on the lines of the pantomine as proâ€" duced in the bigger towns of the Old Country, making due allowance for such scenic effects as cannot be obâ€" tained here. There have been several new additions to the cast of the Black and White Pierrots and it is hoped to produce a show that will be fully equal to, if not better than the last. It would be well for all who enjoy a firstâ€"class entertainment to watch for the ticketâ€" sellers for the Black and White Pierâ€" rots.
