According to reliable sourâ€" ces, there is no danger of any shortage of foodstufifs in Canada. Canadians can show their patriotism by refusing to allow. themselves to be stampeded into a panic, resulting in hoarding. I am thinking of." "I feel the same way," said Magisâ€" trate Atkinson. ‘‘However people do seem to succumb to this kind of tempâ€" tation and she may never do such a thing again. Furthermore, she has a four months old child and it is it that "I haven‘t the slightest doubt as to the correctness of the evidence of the two young ladies in the store," said Magistrate Atkinson,. "Furthermore, I believe the dress has been well idenâ€" tified as the one taken from the.store" .When the Magistrate said that he was inclined to free the accused ‘on her own recognizance, the Crown Atâ€" torney said that he thought some penâ€" aity should be inflicted for "the sneakiest kind of theft imaginable." Evelyn Goodfellow, who was with Mrs. Mondeau when the alleged theft took place, said that she did not see her friend take any dress nor did she see one when she and Mrs. Mondeau, who live together, got home. Asked why Mrs. Mondeau would not allow one of the saleswomen to help her fit on the dresses, Miss Goodfellow said: "She didn‘t have a slip on." Miss Goodfellow said that only two dresses were fitted. Testifying on her own behalf the accused said that she bought the dress in a Queen Street shop in Toronto when she was in the city in July. She admitted that she told Inspector Olson that she sent to Simpson‘s for the dress material and made it herself and admitted also that that statement was a falsehood. "I recall some remarks~mad=* "*DY n English judge about people who lied on the â€"witness stand and who lied when under oath. He considered them both most reprehensible," said Magistrate (Atkinson. "Personally 1 believe that a person who will lie in ordinary life will lie on the witness stand. I â€"don‘t see a great Gdeal of difference myself." A sister of the accused, Mrs. Belanâ€" ger, said that she was with her sister when she bought the dress in Toronto during the latter part of July. Miss Corbiel gave positive identifiâ€" cation of the dress. Admitting that there might be other dresses of a simiâ€" lar model in town, she said that there certainly was no other with similar stitching. She had made the repairs herself. Miss LaPierre was able to identify the dress by marking of stitching put in when it had been slightly ripped during a tryâ€"on some time previous. Some enquiries elicited the inforâ€" mation that ~Mrs: Mondeau often danc:d. Accordingly, on the followâ€" ing Saturday night she asked her colâ€" league in the store, Miss Corbiel, to go to the dance hall and let her know if she saw Miss Mondeau there. Miss Corbiel later telephoned and she, with her brother, went to the pavilion. She saw Mrs. Mondeau and she was wearâ€" ing the dress. The three of them got her into a taxi cab and brought her to the police station. Manager of the store, Miss B. Laâ€" Plerre, said that she came back from lunch one day recently and saw that Mrs. Mondeau was in the dressing room trying on dresses. When the customer left she noticed that two hats were missing from a box and immeâ€" diately had the dresses checked. One was found missing. Astute detective work on the part of two employees of Assaf‘s women‘s wear store resulted in the apprehenson of Mrs. Eileen Mondeau, who was conâ€" victed of stealing a $16 dress. Mrs. Mondeau was released on her own reâ€" cognizance of $100 for the period of a Store Employees Turn to Detection of Woman They Beâ€" lieved to Have Stolen Dress.

Colbern later talked to the tank ‘commander and quoted the offiâ€" cer as saying "we are against the Gerâ€" U.S. Attache Says That the Russians are Against Nazis A rather remarkable story came this week from Rumania. The story is by no means impossible or even improâ€" bable. The chief trouble is that most Canadians would wish it to be true, and so may not be ready to‘weigh it with fullest impartiality. It has, howâ€" ever, the earmarks of authenticity so far as the chief character is concerned, and also there is little doubt but that he is sincere. Here is the story as told in despatches:: A member of the Brigade will be present at the hall at 7 p.m. this Thursday for the purpose of. enrolling any one who wishes to take this This course will be of six weeks‘ duâ€" ration and there will be a small enâ€" rollment fse to cover the cost of a First Aid book and the registration of the class at Toronto.

Headed by the Moderator Dr. John W. Woodside. United Church of Canada Forms War Service Committee . Carrying his gas mask, Lord Stanhops, lord president of the council in the new war cabinet, is ready for the air raid siren‘s warnâ€" ing blast as he strolls in Whitehall. Toronto Telegram: â€" Judging from the demand for scrap iron, it seems they are beating the plowshares into Glicbe and Mail:â€"Already there is a discusion as to what this war should be called. Anybody who can name it can take it away. In the meantime houses now under construction are being completed and ready sales for them are anticipated provided present promotion efforts are continued. There ~â€"may, contractors agree, be a brief period during which great uncertainty as to future condiâ€" tions will hinder sales but the general opinion of Canadian business indicates that every effort will be made to adopt a business as usual policy and everyâ€" thing will be aone to preserve normal conditions. On the other hand, builders point out even with higher prices during the. next few months there will continue to be a considerable amount of new home building. There will be much less unemployment and wages will be high. With more money in circulation many Canadians will do very necessary reâ€" novations to their homes but still others will move into new residences and will be able to pay the higher prices reâ€" quired. During the last war, it is reâ€" called, there was a considerable amount of home construction and at that time there was no legislation similar to the present National Housing Act and no wellâ€"organized savings certificate comâ€" panies developed sufficiently to aid in gcecumulation of savings for home building purposes. . Now, at the outâ€" break of war, the NH.:A. is still in existence and savings certificates comâ€" panies have thousands of certificate holders who have been saving for some time to build their own homes and who will continue their savings policies. One of the largest of these comâ€" panies, the Champion Savings Corp., with offices in six provinces and thouâ€" sands ‘of depositors, points out that during the Great War building societies in England increased their memberâ€" ships at a greater rate than ever beâ€" fore. The savings certificates comâ€" panies in Canada are the closest apâ€" proach to the English building societies and differ only in their necessary changes to meet Canadian conditions. The holders of savings certificates and total of savings therefore is expected to show continual increase in Canada with consequent increased building on their maturity. FPirst reaction of speculative builders and others actively engaged in the sales of new residences was that selling would immediately become difficult and that all selling efforts would cease. This feeling, however, has at least partially disappeared. At the moment, it is pointed out, there is still a large deâ€" mand in Canada for residences and with the likelihood of early increases in labor and building material costs houses now completely constructed or in the final stages become "bargain" homes. It is unlikely that homeas being built today will be built for anything close to the same price six months or a year from now. (From Canadian Housing News) With uncertainty in all lines of busiâ€" ness due to the outbreak of war the bui‘ding industry in Canada is taking stock at the present time, considering how it best can contribute to Canada‘s war effort and at the same time preâ€" serve a sound industrial foundation at home.
