Weigh Them Rooks shelves should be weeded out and kept up to date . .. with books on things of particular inilerest to your particular family, with new timely books that you‘ll all want to read. When a cert@in book has beenr read around the family, weigh it critiâ€"ally .‘. will~you want to ‘refer to it againâ€"if so, keep it., If not pass it along while it‘s still timely, The kind of books vou like to read agzgain ani .‘. will you want to refer to it againâ€"if so, keep it If not pass it along while it‘s still timely, The kind of books you like to read again and again, that you‘re often pulling out to look semething up in and reference books . . . those are the books to keep. There are encugh of them to fill the house if you choose wisely, so don‘t feel that we‘re rationâ€" ing you too severely! And, of course, we‘ll allow you a certain number of old volumes that you can cherish for sentimental reasons, but don‘t let the shelves become glutted by them. As for books in ‘he decorative schemesâ€"they can be stunning and usually they add a mellow glowing warm h to a room.

If you have a lot of books, you‘ll have to keep the colours in the rest of the rocm pretty strong in value, otherwise <he books will look out of balance. A lot of dark books in a pastel room often kills the whole effect of the delicate colours. If you have to use many books in a pale roomâ€"be sure that the colours of the books complete the colour scheme and act as accents, The Centre of Interest If bocks are an important interest of ithe family, build your room around themâ€"make them the centre of interâ€" est. In a room without a fireplace a book covered or a handsome cabinet filled with ibecks make a fine focal point abou; which to group the sofa and chairs. Or have low dadoâ€" height books shelves across one end of the room with interesting pictures by Elizabeth MacRea Boykin A circular book shelf with an upholstered seat around it makes an interesting centreâ€"piece in this library. The other book shelves in the room are recessed into the walls. or sculpture above them A bookâ€"shelf arrangement of more | dramatic appeal consisted of two horiâ€" zontal shelves exvending the full length of the rcomand about third of the way un the wall. These shelves, recessed and indirectly illuminated, struck the dominant pattern detail in] the rocm. While a single horizontal | shelf built all arourd the walls of a | downstairs sitting rocm had a long seat | built in below the shelf and upholsterâ€" i ed with button tufting. A young couple, who owned two beautiful vases | but had no fireplace and a lot of rowdy | companions, hit upon the idea of bookâ€" shelves that would take the place of a fireplace as the centre of interest in the room and also add design and variety to the wall. They had two sections in the shelves made just the right size to hold their lovely vases | | . . . these looked their best there yet weren‘t in danger of ‘being bounced around at an enthusiastic party. Books and That Old Piano Bookcases built around an upright piano sometimes solve the problem of what to do with an outâ€"cfâ€"date piano that still makes gocod imusic., Have them deep enough to form a niche in which the piano can be placed. They mighy be eiher tall narrow shelves on . either side of the piano and extend across the tcop to hold books and bibelots, or the bookcases can fill the whole wall and contain the complete library. Include niches to hold shees music, piano scores, song books and the like. It might jbe effective to keep books pertaining to music in the smallâ€" er shelves on either side of the piano, intersoersed with small sculptures of favcuri‘e composers. Ths interior of the niches can either be papered to match or contrast with wallpaper in the living rococm, or they can be painted in a dark colour to set off books and ornamen‘s. Book shelves around a big radio camouflage a cabinet whose deâ€" sign you don‘t particularly like, The same goes for a phonograph â€" you could also include spaces for records.

Atâ€" kinson was presiding at the trial of C. Ssandrelli, North Bay, who was in court (Released by Consolidated News Feaâ€" tures, Inc.) cn charges in connection with the On‘ario Temperance Act. A raid was made on Sandrelli‘s residence and liquor said to be valued at over $11,â€" 000.00 was seized. The raid was made by special officers and an alarm cf fire was turned in, the firemen being sworn in as special constables fo conduct the raid. Magistrate Atkinson convicted Sandrelli and senterced him to serve six months in jail, with the liquor being confiscated. An appeal was entered against ‘the conviction. The «defence was a general denial of the allegations made by are special officers who workâ€" ed on the case, togzether with an alibi for the accused, several witnesses being called to swear that Sandrelli was in Toronto on the dates he was charged with selling liquor. In reference to the immense amount of liquor kept by Sanâ€" drelli it was claimed by the defence that Sandrelli, who was fnown as the "king of the Italians" was a racing man with hosts of friends, anr famious for his hospitality. The evidence generally was so contradictory that Magistrate Atkinson commented that one side or the other must certainly have been guilty of perjury. From the Porcupine Advance Fyles While Magzistrate Atkinson was a.ti North Bay twenty years ago conducting the,+tr2i1 of Sandrelli, at the direct reâ€" â€" quest of the Attorneyâ€"General, the polâ€" ice court at Timmins was taken by Police Magistrate E. R. Tucker, of Cochrane. Magistrate Tucker made a very favourable impression here by his method of conducting court and the albility and skill he evidenced in decidâ€" ing cases. One of the interesting and amusing cases was that of an Indian charged with being | drunk. In court this Indian gave the impression that hecould not speak English, anr so an interpreter would be necessary. not so good, as the difficulty of securâ€" ing a suitable interpreter in such a case would take time anmd money. Magisirate Tucker, however, easily surmounted the difficulty, he spoke to the Inrian in his own language and the Indian was so surprised and pleased that he kept on smiling even when he paid $10.0) and costs for benig drunk. Magistrate Tucker was formerly a Hudson Bay cmpany factor and in that capacity had learned the Indian language. Twenty years ago the Timimins fire hall was improved and increased in size an addition being built to house the new equipment being purchased. The platform in front of the fire hall was replaced by a cement one and other improvements were made. In the Advance of Sepi. 28th, 1921, merition was made of the appointment of Officer Moore of South Porcupine to the rank of inspector for the North ern division to succeed Arthur Rowell resigned. , P j d signed. In commenting on the appointâ€" ment The Advance said:â€"â€"‘"FPor the past three years Officer Moore has been the provincial officer stationed at South Porcupine. He has followed the lines of his duty ‘without fear or favour, and his own personal life has been an °xâ€" ample of right living. Inspec.or Waiter Moore‘s territory covers from Temagimi to Cochrane and west some distance on the Transcontinental. Normalily, he will have five officers in his inspectorate, one at Gcowganda, one at Cochrane, one at Englehart and one at South Porcâ€" upine. The government is also said to be considering the appointment of a couple of other cfficers for the North Land, one to be at Porquis Junction,. and one for the Mattagami river area. At the present time no appointments have been made, though they seem to be desirable in view of the immense teritory, much of it unorganized, now supposed io be covered by the officer in the Porcupine camp." To this latter mention if may be added that The Advance had consistently urged the appointment of more provincial police officers dfor this part of the North iLand. With only five officers in the immense territory referred to it did not i seem fair either to the police or to the public to continue to allow five men to attempt to properly police so big an area. Twenty years ago The Advance had the following which will be of interest to host of friends again:â€" â€""J. D. MacLean, formerly town foreman and deputy fire chief here and more recentâ€" ly one of the assistants to the town engineer, left for Ottawa to be presen at his own wedding in the capital city on Tuesday: Jack said he wouldn‘t miss this particular wedding for anyâ€" thing. On Tuesday this very popular and mucrâ€"esteemed oldâ€"timer* of the North Land was married to Miss Cartr, sister of Mrs. L. S. Newton, Mrs. Fitzâ€" geald, and Mrs. E. Rogers. ‘The bride is well ‘known and popular in Timmins and the couplewill receive and district. Mr. and Mrs. MacLean will take un residence on Cedar street Timmins and the couple will receive their wedding trip. An indication of the popularity of the groom and the sincere regard and affection in which he is held by those who know him best was given by the hosts of good wishes showered upon him during the past two weeks. ‘In several cases there were parties and presentations. With the Timmins Fire Brigade, of which he has been a valued member for many years, the feelings was exâ€" pressed in tangible form. The Brigade presented Jack with a handsecme and valuable bedroom cuite as a token of this regard. the very sincere and hearty good wiches of hosts of friends in Timimins Soldiers Letters Posted Free from Newfoundland Members of the Canadian Forces staticned in Newfoundland are now enjoying the privilege of mailing their letters postageâ€"free to Canada as reâ€" sult of the arrangements placed in effect by Honourable William P. Muâ€" lock, K.C., Postmaster General. Early in the summer it was anâ€" nounced that plans were being made for the establishment of regular Field Post Offices in Newfoundland by the Canadian Postal Corps, through which soldiers‘ letters to Canada would have to pass to be accepted free of postage, the regular Newfoundland postage beâ€" ing required on all other items. This scheme which is now in effect is a further arrangement made by the Post OCOffice to facilitate an exchange cf correspondence between the troops and their homes in Canada. It will ‘be recalled that a special postage rate on parcels was authorized by the Post Office Department â€" 10 cents a pound (limit 20 pounds) for the benefit of those mailing to the Canadian Forces in Newfoundland. He was reading the evening paper. "What a debt we owe to medical science!" he said. _ "Good gracious," replied his wife, "haven‘t you paid the doctor‘s bill yet?"â€"Sudbury Star. The man in the street in Berlin says with acrid humor: "Hitler is now a itriple Aryan: a vegetâ€"arian, a totalitâ€"arian, and proâ€" letâ€"arian."â€"M. W.
