Upon a request being made to enter and see the house (after the months‘ notice was up) the inmate refused permission. Upon his own statement the buyer them kicked him. This was not borne out by evidence submitted, and it seemed as if the deâ€" fendant had right on his side. At any rate the case was dismissed. W. E. Thomson One of Those Attending Banquet o f Merchants‘ Association of National Institute fm the Blind. W. E. Thomson, who has successfully carried on a store at the Buffaloâ€"Anâ€" kerite Mine for some time past was one of those present at the sixth annual banquet to observe the anniversary of the founding of the Merchants‘ Assoâ€" ciation of the Canadian National Inâ€" stitute for the blind. Mr. Thompson has been a member of the Merchants‘ Association of the C.N.I.B. for five out of the six years. There were fortyâ€"five blind merchants present, only six of the number being from coutside Toronto. Mr. Thomson was one of the six and had the distiction of having travelled the farthest to attend the event. The banquet was held at Hunt‘s Cafe, Toâ€" ronto, and it was very happy and inâ€" terest‘ing event. Ian Grills, president, introduzged the guests, who included L. M. Wood, president Canadian National Institute for the Blind; ‘Captain E. A. Baker, managing director, and J. F. Clunk, employment supervisor, under whose auspices most of the "blind" bus‘ness enterprises were inaugurated. Mr. Clunk told the association, a provinceâ€" wide organization with 67 members, that their association was the only one of its kind and was attracting worldâ€" wide attention. The Merchants‘ Association of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind includes the seventyâ€"odd â€" merâ€" chants who have been able to start in business for themselves under the ausâ€" pices‘of the National Institute for the Blind. There were 67 of these in April but this number is now over 70. The latest addition is a man in Sudjury whose story is a remarkable one. Through his own courage and patient industry and the able assistance of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind this Sudbury man has been able to triumph over circumstances and to establish himself in a postion where he is able to provide for himself and his family, He is selfâ€"supporting apd supâ€" ports his family of five children. Many with far less hand‘cap are on relief. While in Toronto at the banguet Mr. Thomson met D. B. Lawley, field secreâ€" tary, well known in the North on acâ€" count of his several visits here. Mr. Lawley expects to be in Timmins on his annual visit in the course of a few weeks,. He will be given hearty welâ€" come here by hosts of friends. St. Louis Starâ€"'l’xn‘es:â€"'r'he average United States citizen works 70 days a year to earn money with which to payi taxes, direct and indirect. He does this because he loves nis Uncle Sam, beâ€" cause he is patriotic, and because, try as he may. he can‘t figure up any way of getting out of it. The Merchants Association of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind has not only established the merchants on its list, but it has also established itself. Last year the turnâ€" over was well over the hundred thouâ€" sand mark with a profit of around $13,â€" 000, which looks like excellent business well and skilfully conducted. Misfortune Strikes But Man Undaunted Kirkland Lake Man Burned} in Saving Children from Fire but Still Cheerful and‘ Hopeful. There is a man in Kirkland Lake who shows the spirit of gallant bravery, courage and cheerfulness under seriotus hand‘cap. MHe is in the hospital reâ€" covering from burns sustained in savâ€" ing his children when the house he occupied took fire. The house and all its contents were lost, the children getting out in their night clothes only The man himself has been out of work for some months. Yet he is still cheerful in his hospital bed. "Everyâ€" thing will be all right if I can only land a job when I get out of hospital,‘ he says. The story is well worth reading in full. Here it is as given in The Norâ€" thern News of Kirkland Lake on Tuesâ€" All O.K. if He Can Get Job. His optimism undimmed after a damaging blow to his hopes, when he lost everything in a fire in which he also suffered the painful burns which put him in the hospital, Alfred Olson, 83 Tower street, Kirkland Lake sat up in bed in Kirkland District Hospital on Monday and said "Everything will work out all right if I can land a job when I get out." Olson, who came to Kirkland from New Liskeard, has been out of work since February, when he was laid off at a local mine but, by careful manageâ€" ment, he was able to keep himself and the four children, to whom he is both father and mother, his wife having died four years ago, off the relief rolls. Last week the woman who has been helping him with the children was away doing other work and he "made out" by himself with the four who range in age from five to ten years. Gave Kiddies a Bath "Saturdaty night I gave them all a bath," he said, "and laid out their clothes for Sunday school. We were go‘ing to sleep in a little late on Sunday morning and that‘s how it was when the fire came they were in their night clothes." The blaze, which was first noticed at 9 o‘clock, started in Olson‘s side of a gouble house, the other half of which is occupied by Bert Shanks. It was while Mr. Olson sloshed water on the crackâ€" ling wall board of the ceiling that he was burned by a huge chunk of burning material which struck him on the head. "My hand was burnt as a clawed the board from my head," he said, "andâ€"my foot was scorched when I stamped on the burning material." Kiddies Ran Back His chief concern was to get the fout children safely out of the flaming kitâ€" chen. Terrified by the flames, they made the job harder by running back in for clothes af terwards but he rescued all "four. ° "We were going to have dinner with the Shankses," he said, "for Myrs. Shanks has been helping me with the children but," and he could laugh as he lay in the hospital bed to which he will be confined for some time, "it all got cooked too soon." ‘"When I can get out around I‘ll get a job," was the comment on Monday of the father, who is a machinist by trade, and who is determined to make things break right for himself and the four Fire Chief Mathieson who answered the call, said the contents of the Olson home, a structure about 28 by 30, was a 100 per cent loss. In Shanks‘ side of the double house, where the walls were finished with plaster board, the damage was not so heavy, the fire chief said, although everything was badly scorchâ€" ed. Eight hundred dollars insurance was carried by the Shankses. Mr, Olson was glad on Monday, when a reporter and the fire chief talked to him, that homes had been found for his children for the time being. The three boys are in a home arranged for ty the local branch of the Children‘s Aid Soâ€" ciety and Relief Officer Bill Birnie and a neighbour have kindly offered to look after the l‘ttle girl while her father reâ€" covers. she tried the laundry This lady knows â€"what economical launsry service means.
