One despatch from Ottawa says that a picture of men and women and children working in their own homes on cheap clothing in the province of was painted on Thursday of last week to the pxtrliamentary comâ€" mittee investigzating mass buying. The disclosures were made by J. G. Glassco, an investigating auditor. In some of the disclosures there has been a fairly general tendency to ask for suspension of opinion until all the facts are known. In this particular case it would seem that the auditor‘s stateâ€" mont gives all the information availâ€" able and that information is not flatâ€" tering to anybody. "This is almost unbelievable," said Chairman H. H. Stevens, when the auditor told of clothing contractors in Mnotreal trucking cloth and thread into the country, there to be sewed into clothing at starvation rates. Whole families would work, receiving 60 cents a dozen for sewing men‘s! pants and, in addition, buying thel thread from contractor, who re-l ceived it free from the manufacturer. The auditor told of visiting one farm house 25 or 30 miles from Montreal where four families worked together cn clothing. In the daytime, the woâ€" men worked the machines, sewing the, pieces together, putting in the pockets. and attaching buttons. At night, the men pressed the finished garments. The joint output for the four famâ€" ilies was from 2 1â€"2 to 3 dozen paints daily for which they received, without ccnsidering cost of thread, from $1.40 to $1.80. Each family would reecive less than 50 cents for the long day‘s da Almost Unbelievable" Is Comment of Chairman Stevens on Conditions Said 1to Exist in Quebec Province in Making of Clotl\ing LARDER LAKE NOW TO HAVE NEW DOCK TO COST $3,000 reâ€" The parliamentary committe WI he parliamentary committee apâ€" nted to investigate mass buying 1 alleged unethical conditions in ustry in Canada is continuing its sions at Ottawa, and disclosures being made from day to day, some these being very startling.

For instance, there is the one about the year in which there | was a fall of snow every single month, including June, July and August. But the strangest and the best weather story yet about the North is a true one. It proves again that truth is stranger than fiction. And much more interestâ€" ing after all. That‘s why The Advance specializes in ‘truth as news, so far as may be possible. The story about the North‘s weather, however, is to the effect that ice was cut a few days ago on the Montreal river. The date of the iceâ€"cutting was June 15th. The story connected with this iceâ€"cutting goes about as follows: Mrs. Ada Wilson, of Kirkland Lake, recently opened a confectionery store and restaurant in Matachewan townâ€" site. She has her cafe and store in a building owned by Councillor Alex Fraser, of Kirkland Lake, and though‘ that cuts some ice, it does not solve the problem. Mrs. Wilson found the ice problem a serious one in the cafe business and mentioned the fact to a couple of prospectors who visited the store. She pointed out that ice was most expensive in Matachewan, when it could be secured, and sometimes it was impossible to get it at any price. "You want some ice?" the prospecâ€" Prospectors Supply Restaurant with Need¢d Ice to Help Out in an Emergency.

Soon they were back at the store with some of the most beautiful ice that anyone could desire. It was clear as crystal and apparently only freshly cut. "Here‘s your ice, lady," said the prospectors. Then _ explanations were made. While exploring the river not far from the Matachewan townsite the prospecâ€" tors had discovered a large natural cave; running right in from the river. Protected from sun and rain and wind, the ice formed in this cave in the winâ€" ter time was kept in its natural state for months. With this knowledge in mind the prospectors were safe in proâ€" mising a supply of ice and able to casily carry out their promise. They estiâ€" mated that there was fully a ton of good ice in the cave. tors asked. "Well, we . it. We can get you a need.
