In the course of its work here the; Timmins Humane Society has found that there is considerable theft of dogs, though the guilty parties perhaps do. not intend any theft, but are just thoughtless in many cases. The theft, as it is looked upon by the law, conâ€" sists in keeping valuable dogs that bappen to stray away from their legal homes. Last week there were actually twelve such cases in Timmins. Dogs strayed away from their homes and could not be located by their owners. Later it was found that people had taken in these dogs and kept them, saying nothing about it. Inspector Osâ€" car Robertson, of the Humane Society, points out that the law is quite severe against this form of appropriation. He asks all those who "find" dogs or to whose places dogs may stray to notify the Society at once. In such a case owners may soon recover their dogs that stray away, and in case there is no owner to claim the animal the people to whose place the animal has strayed may be able to acquire a legal claim to the dog by the help of the Society. In every. case where dogs. stray onto other premises the Society should be promptly notified. Inspector Robertâ€" son emphasizes this fact as much for the protection of those finding dogs, or having dogs find them, as for the beneâ€" fit of the actual owners. Many of the dogs that manage to stray away are quite valuable. At the present. time there are very many valuable dogs in town. Sometimes they do not appear valuable to the ordinary eye, but by reason â€"of breed or pedigree have a higsh cash value. In practically all Women Needed but Too Many Men Here Hundreds of Men Unable to Secure Work. Demand for Experienced Houseâ€" workers Greater than the Supply. Apparently some of the young unâ€" employed men about town should take lessons in cooking and general houseâ€" work. The women‘s department of the employment bureau reports that there is a large demand for expéerienced hnouseworkers, cooks and general help â€"much larger than the number of woâ€" men who are desirous of filling the positions. It seems that there are plenty of younger women who would gladly take work, but who are not qualified for the positions offered. However, it is certain that any women who have had experience, and who are good workers would not long search for positions in town. Travelling by Canoe In Flooded Long Lac Further Rise in Waters Is Feared in New Mine Town Despatches from Long Lac yesterday said that flood conditions in that Norâ€" thern Ontario mining community reâ€" mained unabated and townfolk beâ€" lieved the swollen waters of Long Lake, that inundated the town, had not reached the peak. Experiencing the first flood in the kistory of this town, 175 miles northâ€" east of Port Arthur, residents went about the flooded streets in rowboats and canoes. Communication lines were down and electrical power was disâ€" continued when the power plant was flooded. Heavy weekâ€"end rains and sudden melting of snow in the bush caused the unprecedented rise of Long Lake. The town is situated near the lake at the extreme north end. Houses on the outskirts have been isolated by the flood. The Canadian National Railways station, situated on a rise of land, is.the only structure not affected by the high waters. Estimate of property damage is impossible until the water recedes. Damage to mining property appeared most serious and ofâ€" fticials said mining operations will be held up one week or longer if the rains continue. The CNR. tracks remained under water and precautions were taken to prevent washouts. Many prospectors‘ shacks along the shores of Long Lake have been damâ€" aged. Edward Joanis, lifeâ€"long resident of the mining district and wellâ€"known prospector, returned to his shack south of here to find it under six feet of water, the furniture floating in the lake. Antics of amateur canoeists are provâ€" ing bright spots in the flood scene. T wo girls attempted to paddle from their PORCUPIXTE ADVANCE. T Wedding of Duke of Windsor on June 3rd isolated home and staged a spectaclar upset on the main street. The‘hotel was closed when the bevâ€" erage rooum was flooded by a foot of water. None of Royal Family to Attend Event at Monts, France According to despatches from Monts, France, this week, the Duke of Windâ€" sor and Mrs. Wallis Warfield announcâ€" ea on Tuesday that they will marry on June 3â€"the birthday of the late King George V, who bitterly opposed his son‘s association with the Americanâ€" born divorcee. The ceremony will ‘be solemnized quietly in the sixteenthâ€"century library ofi the Chateau de Cande there, withâ€" out any blessing from the British Royal Family. None of the Royal Family will atâ€" tendâ€"not even the Duke of Kent who. it was said, was to be the Duke‘s best man. Herman Rogers Is Spokesman The announcement, typewritten on thin, pale blue paper, was handed to 180 newspaper people, representing newspapers of every‘ language around the world, by Herman L. Rogers of New Â¥ork, spokesman for the Duke and Mrs. Warfield. "His Royal Highness the Duke of Windsor announces that his marriage to Mrs. Wallis Warfield, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Teakle Warfield o‘ Maryland, will take place at the chateau at Monts on June 3," the comâ€" runique said. Only those who have been with Edâ€" ward and Mrs. Warfield since the abâ€" gGication will attend the ceremony, it was disclosed. "Invitations to the wedding of the Duke of Windsor and Mrs. Warfield will be confined to those who have been with them in the past months," the anâ€" nouncement continued. ‘"No member of the Royal family will be present." Few Guests Indicated The wedding announcement indiâ€" cated that the only guests will be the following companions of the Duke and Mrs. Warfield: Mr. and Mrs. Charles Rogers, who were Mrs. Warfield‘s hosts at Cannes when she fled from England last Deâ€" cember 5. Mr. and Mrs. Charles E. Bedaux of New York and France, their hosts at the Chateau de Cande. Baron Eugene de Rothschild and his Americanâ€"born wife of Enzesfeld Casâ€" tle, near Vienna, who afforded seclusâ€" ion to the Duke when he went into exile to await Mrs. Warfield‘s final diâ€" vorce decree on May 3.

Phone 417 AND SsONS® TIMALIXS, ONTARIO Phone 1417 The weddifiig announcement was handed to reporters at the Chateau‘s spiked gates at 3.30 pm. (9.30 a.m. EDT.). as they huddied in wind that drove rain in wild gusts. It was the worst day of spring; worse than any in years, the peasants of Monts said. Mayor to Perform Rites Dr. Charles Mercier, mayor of Monts and physician to the Chateau de Cande, probably will perform a civil ceremony in the presence of the British Consul at Tours, Ian Macdonald. in Lower Austria to spend their honeyâ€" moon at Wasserlaeconburg Castle. They will motor to Wasserlaeonburg by way of the French Riviera. Immediately atter the marriageâ€"the third for Mrs. Warfieldâ€"the couple probably will leave in the Duke‘s black limousine for the Carinthian Mountains The hour of the wedding was not reâ€" vealed in the announcement. Some reâ€" ports said it would be in the morning, other reports fixed it for afternoon. Mrs. Warfield had her wedding gown â€"a blue of Edward‘s favourite shadeâ€" sent from the Paris house of Mainâ€" bocher. The other costumes of her wedâ€" ding wardrobe have been brought by fitters of the Paris couturier Schiaâ€" parelli. Sporting Wild Goose Passed Crack Train Other Samples of Speed of Birds and Animals. (From Canadian Forest and OQOutdoors) Passengers and trainmen bound for New York were diverted the other morning by a sporting wild goose which matched its wing power successfully against a Central Railroad of New Jerâ€" sey tmain in a race between Point Pleasant and Long Beach. The bird was first sighted flying low alongside the train at 545 a.m. just north of Point Pleasant. In a burst, of speed it passed the train, which was travelling at fifty miles an. hour or better.Exhib~ iting a spirit of fair play the goose circled while stops were made at Asâ€" bury Park, Elberon and Long Branch, waited for the train to get a head start, and each time easily outstripped it Railroad men said that on the preceding day the goose won a race with train 702 of: the Pennsylvania Railroad, which uses the same tracks. In May of last year residents of Santa Rosa, California, reported that a white pigeon raced a fast freight train into town every afternoon for two weeks, flying beside the locomotive cab. Early risers said that the bird escorted a passenger express in at 6.45 a.m., rested a while in the station and fluttered north again to return on schedule with the fast freight. The records kept by naturalists and cther scientifically minded persons in anmn effort to determine the fastest livâ€" ing creature revealed that the swift, a species of swallow, can fly 200 miles an kour. An American duck hawk in purâ€" suit of prey was clocked by Donald D. MclLean of the California Fish and Game ‘Commission at 180 miles an hour. Compared to this an antelope, whose maximum speed is fiftyâ€"two miles an hour, seems slow. Mr. Mcâ€" Lean said that with an automobile he had paced a desert fox at a top speed of fortyâ€"six miles an hour, coyote at fortyâ€"four and a mule deer at thirâ€" tyâ€"seven. Pigeon racing has a great following in south Australia and more ambitious contests are held in that state than in any other in the Commonwealth, In a 1934 event from Marree in the far North to Adelaide, a distance of 368 miles, 11060 pigeons were entered. The winner, a blue chequer hen, covered the distance in slightly under five and oneâ€"half hours, recording a speed of rearly 1059 yards a minute. Colonel R. Meinertzhagen, who has spent much time in studying the methods of travel and rates of speed of birds, says that lammergeyers or bearded vultures are even faster than pigeons and travel 110 miles an hour. The golden plover attains sixty miles, swallows 106, quail fiftyâ€"seven. Five terns taken from the bird rookâ€" ery of the tip of the Florida peninâ€" sula were carried by a roundâ€"about steamer route to a position off Cape Hatteras, where they were released. Five days from the date of capture three of them were back on the nesting grounds, where they were identified by the bands on their legs. The disâ€" tance from Cape Hatteras to Bird Key by coast line flighth is 1081 miles. The terns thus broke the record flight for trained pigeons, 1010 miles. New Nazi Encyclopedia Voices Peculiar "Facts" The ‘"nazification" has been done with great thoroughness On nearly every page appear references to the parts Nazi slogans and Nazi pictures, whxle preâ€"Nazi Germany is only rought in so that a contrast may be According to information coming from Berlin, Germany, the Nazi govâ€" ernment has issued a new encyclopedia, where all the "facts" are coloured with a view to making propaganda. The Russian Soviet at its worst never isâ€" sued a more prejudiced or twisted book. The new Nazified encyclopedia is "Meyer‘s Encyclopedia," which at one time was the nearest equivalent the Germans had of the Encyclopedia Britannica. Now, it is about as unlike the latter as Euclid is from Walter Winchell. The whole encyclopedia has been reâ€"written from beginning to end with a view to being suitable reading in presentâ€"day Germany rather than for scientific reliability. The "S.A. Mann," official organ of the Nazi Storm Troops, reveals that there were many storm troops among the thousand men working on the new edition. It describes it as "the first Kational Socialist reference book," and dGeclares that all the articles have been written "in the spirit of the new Gerâ€" niany." *4 *# drawn with the "bad old days." There are a certain number of "erâ€" rors" which can hardly be anything but deliberate. Under the heading "Atâ€" tentat" (assassination) Dr. Dollfuss, the former Austrian Chancellor, is listed as, having been murdered on Oct. 3.1 1933, by "Durtil, Marxist." 1 Here are some typical entries: "Abstimmung" (voting)â€""The entire system of voting, which was based on the false idea that majority resolutions were more accurate than the decisions of a single really responsible individâ€" ual, has been completely eliminated in National Socialist Germany. Here the national vote has replaced elections in the Parliamentary sense. The particiâ€" pation of the people in these National Socialist elections is much greater than in the Parliamentary elections in the former Germany or in those of any other state." N "Altes Testament" (Old Testament) â€"This is described as the Jewish Bible. "Beyond the peculiar Israeliticâ€"Jewish character we find in the Old Testaâ€" ment traces of fairy tales and myths of the Orient which were merely reâ€" written‘ by 2 0 D "Arbeit" .
