An old cause of disputeâ€"having been aired before in courtâ€"was once more dragged before the light of the law. The complainant‘s wife, who is in busiâ€" ness with the defendant and by which she claims to be supporting her three children, testified and negatived all the charges against defendant. Complainant stated that he had been followed and threatened with a gunâ€" which he saw in the other‘s handâ€"and that he had been frightened and reâ€" ported it to the police.

Four drunks paid the usual penâ€" alty, one speeder contributed $10 and costs to the funds and a case was reâ€" manded till next week for further eviâ€" dence. This latter was for failing to report an accident to the police. The defendant stated that he had taken the child, knocked down by his car to her home and that she appeared to be none the worse for her experience. He had left his name, address and car number with the people whom he saw in the house, but had not notified the police. The child had since been taken to hosâ€" pital. The remand was given in that the child‘s parent‘s might appear. Many words and much noise accomâ€" panied the next caseâ€"one of assault. Mr. B.

PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Is a punchboard legal? "No," says the law., And Magistrate Atkinson upâ€" held the law in his decision on Tuesday. The test case was argued at great length, Lawyer Platus defending acâ€" cusedâ€"a storekeeper of South Porcuâ€" pineâ€"and Prosecuting Attorney Caldâ€" lbick putting the case for the law. This puhchboard was installed in the defendant‘s store, and was held to be legal, because it purperted to reward skill, instead of the usual haphazard chancing punch,. A set of intricate questions was printed on top of the board and any one clever enough to be able to answer correctly was given inâ€" structions by the letters in the answer ! to be able to punch a hole and receive chocolates as a winner. Counsel said it was a game of skill |and quoted arguments in its favour. : Prosecutor contented it was a @w#ime of chance because the average puncher wouldn‘t bother with the questions but would do itâ€"(even as you or I)â€"by blindly jabbing with the key at any old hole, and take a chance on what he got. _ Cases were quoted by both lawyers, for and againstâ€"but the Masgistrate decided that $50 and costsâ€"with board confiscatedâ€"was the answer. ' Dcfendant may appeal the case. the worldâ€"wide Empire on St. David‘s Day the Welsh people were gathered to do honour to their patron saint and Mr. Neame believed that this was the sign and symbol of their love and reâ€" gard for the high qualities that form the Welsh tradition. Mr, Neame recallâ€" ed interesting incidents in his own childhoscd days in Wales, together with some appealing Welsh legends. A solo in Welsh by Mrs. W. Rober‘s was followed by an English rendering ol the same pleasing song. There was very decided encore given this popular singer and she responded in good voice and form with "The Rising of the (Continued from Page One) aent; Mayor and Mrs. Bartleman; Mr. Wohlrab; Mr. and Mrs. A. Neame; Reyv. Bruce Millar and Mrs. Millar. After the delightfiuil dinner had been erjoyed, the chairman, J. Thomas called for the singing of "O Canada," after which G. Nippers in a brief but apt address proposed the toast to the King. Mr. Nippers noted the unusual factor â€" unique he thought in British history in recent conturiesâ€"that there were three differert kings within the past two years. He felt that Welsh loyalty would ce firm and true to the Klinigs. Austin Neame, in his response to the toast to St. David and Wales, referred to the British characteristic of carryâ€" ing on the traditions of loyalty to the King and the Empire. In this day when the world was in such a state of unâ€" rest he felt that the Welsh people might be depended upon to give their hearty support to the King that is.

In observing St. David‘s Day, Mr. Thomas said, Welshmen all ovetr the world paid honour to their native land, to its traditions, its art, its love of music and of beauty. Tradition said that $t.

Fire Chief A. Borland was called upon without warning, the chairman suggestâ€" ing that he would likely claim to be unâ€" prepared like some of the other speakâ€" ers. "I am unprepared," said Mr. Borâ€" lar‘d, "but I‘m not in the same position as the other speakers. It‘s their business to be able to talk. Jf the mayor or the preacher or the editor couldn‘t get up and talk they couldn‘t hold their jobs, but i{f I start to talk I‘m liable to lose my jJ¢b." He congratulated the Welsh people on the delightful evening and expressed appreciation of the fine choral work of the Welsh Miners‘ Choir to the public. It was one of the finest banquets he had ever attended. Geo. Hale, Ron Purchase and H. Hopâ€" kins added to the success of the evening by their able work as accompanists. The chairman expressed regret that a popular and esteemed Welsh couple, Mr. and Mrs. J. Jones, were unable to be present this year on account of illâ€" ness. It was decided to have the secâ€" retary forward them a message of symâ€" pathy and good wishes for their speedy recovery. A duet by Mrs. W. Roberts and Geo. Hale delighted the gathering and was given very insistent encore. In proposinig a toast to the ladies, G. A. Macdonald confined the greater part of his few words to story and humour. "I don‘t know much about the ladies," he confessed, "but what I do know I like very much. And I am always anxious to learn." He spoke of the wonâ€" dcrful work for the cause of education . Wales of Dame Bridget Bevan. He lar expressed the pleasure of the guests at the very happy, friendly evening enâ€" joyed, with its pleasant addresses, its delightful music and iis enjoyaple harâ€" mony and hospiltality. Touching on the history of the Wels"i people he believed that their greatest legacy was the gift of Christianity coming down through the centuries. In his own church work he had found the Welsh with their music and their faith to be helpful and inspiring. He also mentioned the worldâ€" famous preachers of the gospel who were ratives of Wales. was pleased and proud to count so many Welsh people among hs friends. Rev. Bruce Millar, minister of Timâ€" niins United Church, was asked to reâ€" spond to the toast to the guests, and his imprompt{u address was one of the happy hits of the evening. Rev. Mr. Milâ€" In replying to the toast proposed by Mr. Bellamy, Mayor J. P. Bartleman expressed his pleasure at being present. He welcomed the Welsh as citizens of Canada and of Timmins because of the high ideals they held of citizenship. He also mentioned the love of music shown by the Welsh people, noting that all the Welsh seemed to love to sing and all seemed able to sing well. This was something that Canada might copy. The mayor thought it would be a fine thing if music were taught in the schools here. He thought a children‘s choir for the coronation celebration here would be a splendid feature. In conclusion the mayor asked the icoâ€" operation of the Welsh people in the coronation celebration which has been left in the hands of the Legion to arâ€" range. On behalf of the Welsh people, the chairman promised Mayor Bartleâ€" man and Austin Neame (who had also mentioned the matter) every coâ€"operaâ€" tion. Selections by the Welsh Miners® Choir under the leadership of Mr. Hale added to the interest and pleasure of the eve. nin«. Community singing, led by Geo. Hale, was another hapny musical feature of the evening. Mr. Hale explained that in their community singing the Welsh had many favourite hymns they liked to sing wherever they were, and so hymns formed a material part of the selections in the community singing. There was singing in both Welsh and English and this was a much enjoyed part ¢f the programme. "Our Guests" was the toast briefly but pleasingly proposed ky Geo. Hale. He expressed the pleasure of the Welsh people at having a number of guests with them for the evening. A brief reâ€" view was given by Mr..Hale of the progress of music in Wales sinze the sixth century, with particular reference ts the noted Eisteddfod, a musical fesâ€" tival where prizes are given for singing ard playing, the preparation for the event developing musical talent in a marked way. He hoped to see someâ€" thing along this line in Northern Onâ€" tario,. Mr. Hale made reference also to the Welsh Miners‘ Choir, the Schubert Choir and the South Por:upine Glee Club, the latter two‘giving a successful presentation of "The Messiah" last Weish Miners‘ Choir. "Never before in the hisiorty of the world," said Mr Peliamy, "has there been such pressing need for wise and sane lradership Europs is a seething cauldron of unâ€" rest, apparently ready to boil over at any time and spread chaos and deâ€" struction over the globe. The one oasis in the deser: of world unrest is Britain. It is the duty of all to stand fast with Britain for demovracy and the right." Mr. Bellamy spoke of the affection Welsh people gave to their adopted iand. They were ready, he believed, to stand on guard for Canada. He apâ€" pealed to all ard especially to his own Weish people to defend Canada against the evil schemes of certain elements toâ€"day who would destroy the law and institutions of this country. Announsement was made by Mr. Belâ€" lamy of the receipt from the St. David‘s Society, Toronto, of a telegram of good wishes and fellowshp to the Timmins Welsh people in their celebration of St. David‘s Day.
