Godin told a similar story. "I refused him on instruction from the committee," Mr. Dunn said, "He‘d been in several times." Godin had stepped back when he was refused and had hit him with his fist, Mr. Dunn said. Mr. Meehan had seen Godin come in, had heard the discussion and had seen him deliberately hit Mr. Dunn on Mr. Meehan had seen in, had heard the discu;: seen him deliberately hit the side of the face. The relief inspector had called at his place, Plamondon said and had said they were need of help. At this the Crown objected, saying that it was gettâ€" ing a little far afield from the assault. "When you went to Mr. Dunn on April 23rd what did you tell him?" "I asked him for relief and he told me couldn‘t do anything. I grabbed him by the two arms and threw hLm against the wall." "What did you hit magistrate asked. "Because he wouldn‘ I was going to get it other. I was hard up what to do." "Did you understand then Mr. Dunn had settled the question or the comâ€" mittee?" "Did you know the man?" ‘"yCS.., "Is he married?" ‘‘"Yes,"" "Any children?" ‘"NO:" Speaking ‘of the actual assault, Mr. Dunn said, "He grabbed me and shoved me over the back of a chair. I told him to keep his hands off me ‘T shoved him back." A woman who had been in the relief office at the time corroborated the reâ€" lief officer‘s evidence. Talked to Mayor, He Says Plamondon took the stand and under Miss Cofsyin‘s questioning told his story. He had asked for relief three days before the council meeting, he said. "The mayor and Mr. Brunette told me they were leaving it in Mr. Dunn‘s hands." Dunn Roumanian Troubles A fine of $50 and costs, together with damages of $50 was the sentence imâ€" posed on George Vartinuk, convicted of assaulting D. Murchoff and causing him actual bodily harm. Three others. Peter Antonesi, George Spoiglu and Nick Rossu, charged with the same offence, were dismissed. From the evidence given by a number of witnesses, it appeared that a battle royal had started early last Monday morning between two groups of Rouâ€" manians. Mrs. E. Curik told of teing at a christening celobration, from which she and six or seven others had left about two o‘clock in the morning. As they were going along Elm street south . they saw one Bill Musco being chased by some other men who were throwing stones at him. The two groups met, Musco apparently disappeared and a freeâ€"forâ€"all started. Women‘s screams mingled with the sounds of the fighting men. She had seen Vartinuk hit Murâ€" choff, she said. Dr. Kelly testified that Murchoff had suffered severe contusions near his left Asks Leniency Miss Corbin asked leniency for het "clients" and pointed out that they were not of the criminal class. They had already spent five days in jail. "It‘s unfortunate for Mr. Dunn." the crown attorney said. "He had been told what to do by the council." He agreed to the suspended sentence if the men were assured of work at once. "I want to congratulate yo bin," his worship said, "You case very nicely. You didn Ing questions and you didn time." Dr. Kelly testified that Murchoff had suffered severe contusions near his left eye and on the left cheek that had kept him from work for a week. The inâ€" Jjuries might have been caused by a blunt instrument, the doctor kelieved, (Continued on Page Eight) Timmins police court was graced on Tuesday with a woman "lawyer." She got her clients suspended sentence and won the admiration of the magistrate as well. Auralian Plamondon and Armade Goâ€" din, the two men who assaulted I. E. Dunn, relief officer, in the town hall a short time ago, were the men being deâ€" fended by Miss Jean Corbin, well known locally for her speaking ability on beâ€" half of "workers" movements. The men admitted they had struck Mr. Dunn but Miss Corbin was able to show tha‘t they had both been hard up for a long time, had now chances of ja»s and had recommendations from their former employers. Magistrate Atkinson bound them over for two years in the sum of $50 and warned them that if they should commit any offence they could be brought back and sentenced on the present convicâ€" tion. Plamondon had come into the office and asked for relief, and "I refused it," Mr. Dunn said. "On instructions from the council?" asked Crown Attorney S. A. Caldbick. "There had been a meeting the preâ€" vious night. The case was brought up.

Unity of the parents themselves, interest in and coâ€"operation with the schools are the The two main supports were the parâ€" ents on one side and the school on the other. The, rungs themselves were days in the child‘s life. The foundation on which the ladder rests must be level and strong, Mr. Boyce said, otherwise it will topple down when any climbing is to be done. He went over the rungs one by one, day by day. One was weak because the child haq missed a day of school when there was no nsed to do so. Saturday‘s was a big strong rung because so much had been done. But Sunday‘s was missing completely. One side of the ladder, the school, being strong, is of little use if the other side, the parents, 4o not build theirs of equal strength. There must be coâ€"operation between the two. "Why Ladders Fall Down" was the subject chosen by P. A. Boyce, prinâ€" cipal of the Schumacher public school, on Monday when he addressed the Kiâ€" wanis Club here. The allegory introâ€" duced by Mr. Boyce made every detail of two ladders correspond to a child‘s life. One laddger was well constructed; the other was not well braced, had rungs missing and weak parts at many pqints.

W. W. Tannsr, principal of the Timâ€" mins High and Vocational School, thanked Mr. Boyce on behalf of the club, commended him for his fine ilâ€" lustration and added some strong points to the allegory by referring to some cases he had known. Two new members, Newton Vance and Ernest Stevens, were welcomed to the club and were given their initiatory address ‘by Rev. Bruce Millar. Past President P. J. Lynch presented the Kiwanis button to Mr. Vance, while Past President Dr. H. H. Moore preâ€" sented one to Mr. Stevens. A case in which an emergency operaâ€" tion was required was reported and since the treatment could not be given here, the ~club agreed to pay transporâ€" tation to Toronto, A second urgent case in which a tonsil operation is required was also brought up. The ‘club agreeq to have it attended to immediately. Kiwanians will visit the camp site at Barber‘s Bay this weekâ€"end and will make plans for the immediate work necessary in clcaring. The camp will be in operation just as soon as possible after the beginning of the summer holiâ€" days. Under the new Dunning budget anâ€" nounced last week there is a special consideration shown to ‘blind people. There was some hopes that the new government at Ottawa would show some favour to ‘the proposal for pensioning all blind people at the age of 40 years on a plan similar to that of the old age pension act. The government. howâ€" ever, gave no support at all to this idea. However, the provision in the customs regulations may be of some value to the blind. Under this new provision, it is enacted that a blind person may import any article from any country, for his own personal use,. free of customs duty. Hollinger Cupâ€"Rev. Fr. J. R.

"*There must be liquor produced," the lawyer held. "If there were four people sitting at the table half drunk and an empty bottle beside them, I â€"think that‘s enough to put him on his defence," salq the magistrate. After a consultation with his clients, Mr. Brown returned and Schoff was placed in the witness box. Denies Police Evidence He admitted he was at the Riverside pavilion, that he had been dancing and that he was in the booth when the poâ€" lice arrived, but the rest of the police officers‘ evidence, he denied. "You heard the constable swear you had had a glass in front of you?" "I hadn‘t had a glass at all.‘ ‘"The constable said there were five glasses on the table. Is that correct?" "As far as I‘m concerned there might have been any number on the table." Witness went on to say that the taole apparently hadn‘t been cleared off since the previous people had been in and there were dirty glasses and sandâ€" wich plates on it.

After having obtained a description of the lower floor of the pavilion where there is a refreshment counter and a number of booths where patrons may sit, eat sandwiches and have soft drinks served to them, the defence continued. "How big was this table?" "It was a fairly large one." "There were five others sitting there? Objection Overruled At this point Mr. Brown objected, saying that Schoff might have had a drink uptown some time before. "I think it‘s pertinent," the magisâ€" trate decided. "When a bottle of Scotch is found near a man, a glass smelling of Scotch on the table in front of him, and his breath smelling of liquor." "They were all partly intoxicatetl,‘ Constable Pretorius interjected. Mr. Brown took up the crossâ€"examâ€" ination. "Thereewas avlarge~crowd at the paâ€" vilion that night?"

"and went to the last booth in the place where I found six people seated." All of them but one had glasses in front of them. Schoff‘s glass was on the table between his elbows. That glass smelled of liquor, as did Schoff‘s breath, the constable said. An empty liquor bottle was found on the floor near the man‘s chair. "What kind of liquor hag been in the bottle?" asked Magistrate Atkinson. "It was a Scotch bottle." "Did you spsak to the accused?" askâ€" ed Mr. Caldbick. "Not otherwise than to search him." "Were you able to smell his breath?" YÂ¥ es,"*" The delay was asked by Crown Attorâ€" ney S. A.
