Weekâ€"end camps, hikes, weiner roasss and wide games have all had a place in the programme, and the interest on the part of the boys in these events is reâ€" flected by the fact thal membership has increased considerably during that time. Scouters Carver and Trevethan, Jjust prior to their departure for itne R.C.A.F., joined the boys in a numwer of these activities and assisted them in many ways. Their leaving was reâ€" gretted by the boys, and they took with them the best wishes of every memper of the Troop.

There had originally been three charges, these charges being remanded from week to week for several weeks. Two of these charges â€" one of selling dried fruits above the ceiling price, and another of selling oranges above the ceiling â€" were withdrawn at Tuesâ€" day‘s court.

Kester in entering a plea of guilty on the one charge, explained that whizcz the firm was technically guilty, there was no moral wrong and no one lost anything through the error. The regâ€" ulations required an invoice to be isâ€" sued with each sale to retailers, gilving the size as well as the price of the orâ€" anges. In the case before the court the invoice had been issued with the price shown but the size had not been given. Mr. Kester showed one of the ends of the boxes in which the fruit was delivered, and this showed the size very plainly.

The charge against Mike Cherinmâ€" ski of assault was what might be termâ€" ed a sweet case as it arose over some lumps of sugar. Another boarder at the place Mike stays went to pick up three lumps of sugar from the table. This other boarder claimed the Iumps were his, while Mike seemed to think they were his property. Later the other boarder started to "chew the rag" with Mike about his interference in the sugar business and he claimed that Mike pushed him hard enough to maxe the push a blow. Mike denied having hit the older man. The magistrate dismissed the case as no one appeard to have been hurt in the little battle over three lumps of sugar.

Mr. Platus expianâ€" ed that the accused was a veteran of the last war and that he had served two years in the present war and had been honorably discharged. He had found difficully in making a living on his near town and had secur®g a license intending to trap muskrats. This had not been very profitable and he made the mistake of taking skins out of season. He had never been in trouble of any kind before and had an excellent character. He was not able to pay the ordinary fine in such cases, and Mr. Platus asked if somthing could not be done in the way of special lenâ€" iency. Mr. Platus pointed out that the crops on the farm Mr. Nelson owned had not been put in and if he had to serve the terms in lieu of the fines he would be unable to do anything on his farm this year and so could not proâ€" vide for himself or his family. Magisâ€" trate Atkinson said that the fine ot $20.00 per skin was set by law, and he had no option in the matter. In lHeu of the fine, however, he imposed a senâ€" tence of five days in each case, with the promise that if any of the fines could be paid the jail term could be reduced accordingly. Three drunks paid $10.00 and costs each, one other having to accept the alternative term of ten days.

In regard to the two charges that were withtrawn, Mr. Kesâ€" ter said that it was very difficult to keep up with all the changes in the regulations, bui the firm was making very sincere effort to do so. In referring to the withdrawal of the two charges, Mr. Platus said that it was found that the prices charged for agried fruit and oranges had been made through an honest error or misunderâ€" standing. Ottawa wholesalers had made a similar mistake and the local firm had no doubt been misled by the misâ€" understanding at the Ottawa branch. These two charges had accordingly been withdrawn, but Mr. Platus asked for a penalty in the other case. He held that the firm should know the regulations and that no carelessness should be overlooked.

The "Rice Bow!l" referred, to in the despatches quoted above is even maese famous than the Califormia "Kice Bowl." It is the greatest area for rice production in China and lies along the Yangtse river. It would have been a serious blow to the Chinese if they had not been able to drive back the Japs from this Rice Bowl. on the Yangtse, a river port between Shasi and Ichang. The Chinese spokesâ€" men say that Japan has faiied in her two recent main objectives:~â€" to sever the communications between Hunan and Szechwan provinces and to break into the Chinese riceâ€"producing area. The "Rice Bow!" chiefly known in this country is the bowl used to colâ€" lect money for patriotic causes. Last year there was a Chinese Rice Bowi ceremony here and a goodly sum was collected for Chinese relief by this plan.
