' COLLINS' BAY WRECK While the wreckage resulting from the recent accident on the CN.R. at Collins' Bay was strewn along the road, on either side of the tracks hundreds of curious Kingstonians visited the scene of the wreck. On all sides the wonder was expressed that no lives were lost especially when one realizes that the accident 'happened just at the station proper and that two cars were thrown fully twenty feet into the field not more than five feet to the east of the build- ing. TRAPPERS MEET A meeting of the trappers of the Gananoque district was held in the Gananoque town hall Thursday, when Mr. Cotiey of the Ontario Depart- ment of Game and Fisheries, was resent, when a conference between i and the men interested in trap- ping muskrats took place regarding the matter of having a closed season next spring for muskrats, as was proposed some time ago by the de- partment.

TWO STORES ENTERED Two stores were broken into in Trenton early Thursday. The first to be broken into was that of a black- smith, Mr. C. P. (Steve) Yourex. From this shop there were taken a brace and bit and two bolt cutters-- one three feet long and the other about fourteen inches. These im- plements are valued at about $9.00 each. Those who entered the shop also took with them two jimmies, a hack saw and ten feet of garden hose. It is believed that then, the same man or men, moved off several blocks away and entered the grocery store of Mr. Herbert Kemp, Elgin street. It was found that a quantity of cigar- ettes had been taken. Entrance had been made through the rear door by means of a hole being bored through the door with a brace and bit,--be- lieved to be the same implements as taken from the blacksmith's store. They left no trace, but the police are investigating. 'fabric Occasion THE ARCADE Ltd. Seasonable Needs at Prices that Bring .

Posthumous awards are reported in the cases of Albert J. Cox, To- ronto, and David Johnston, Brooks- by, Sask. The Toronto man sacri- ficed his life at Trenton, Mich., when he plunged into the water to aid a drowning boy. Cox could not swim and was drowned. The West- ern man lost his life in attempting to rescue a drowning man, Youngest on Honor Roll Stanley Conron, Sudbury, nine- year-old boy, risked his own life to drag a little girl from in front of a train, He was awarded a bronze medal. The Conron lad is the youngest to go on the association's rolis of honor, tor, according to H. C. Waterman, the secretary, it was very unusual to encounter deeds worthy of such note where hero was of such tender age. The re- port told how Stanley pulled Kath- ieen McCarthy, four years of age, playing on the railway tracks near her home, from the path of a fast passenger train. Her mother real- ized the danger when she heard the whistle ot the locomotive but was not near enough to do auy- thing. She screamed, and Stanley, taking in the situation at a glance, broke into a fast run, crossed the track at full speed, swept the child up in his arms and tumbled to stafety just in time. Watchers thought that a double tragedy had occurred, T, L. Northey, Fenelon Falls, saved a girl from drowning, Edwin and Mrs, Gill were both honored for the heroic part they played in rescuing a man from the Severn River at Severn Falls, Toward Cain received the award for saving the life of a man who was in difficulties in the water at Port Dalhousie, Donald Marshall brought a drowning man from the Ktooicokg River at Brampton last month, Helen McReynolds was given the certificate for the rescue of a girl irom Lake Couchiching last July. Eva Alladyce saved the life of a girl at Garden Island, Kingston, a wonth ago, W. E. Green rescued a woman at Port Dalhousie last June. Obrey Patterson saved a woman from drowning at Queensville. Beatrice Wilson rescued a man at Peterboro in May, George Macpherson and A. Me- Phall were given the award for the attempted rescue of a drowning man at Guelph, Stanley Matthews, Toronto, re- ceives a parchment for saving the life of a girl at Highland Creek, and G, A, Thompson rescued a man from the Humber River, To- ronto, and receives a pdrchment. Other parchments go to Jean Burton, daughter of Mayor Burton, Hamilton, and Peggy Taylor, Ham- ilton, who rescued a lad from Jrowaing at the Beach on August VARIETY OF GRADES IN ALBERTA CROP Frost Damage Not Fully Re. vealed Until Grain is in Bin Edmonton, Alta., Sept 20--Wide variety of grades in the grain crop of central Alberta is indicated by information collected from 100 Edmonton Journal correspondents for the fifth monthly crop report. Frost damage ranging from slight in many districts to severe loss in certain spots also reduced yields as well as lowered grades, The average figure of correspondents' estimates in July, which was maintained af« ter the August hail season at 30 bushels of wheat per acre, has been cut to 26 bushels. Threshifig results so far have convinced numerous correspond- ents that frost damage will not be fully revealed until the grain is in the bin, because of the patchy way it affected the crop, and estimates of the lowered grades of grain are hard to formulate. Of early wheat there would appear to 'be much more of contact grade than last year, The larger acreage this year will also be quite a factor of the total yield when final figures be- come available.

'"'Chambrette?--but yes, M'sieu, a little room for the sleep--with a be® so comfortable--so many things to make pleasant the jour- ney--it is like sleeping at my old home, And when you reach Mont- real you are so rested."

Premier Baldwin re turns from his holiday at Alx-les- Bains on Sunday and the meeting will likely be held early in the week. Lord Cushendun, in the mean- time, will have had an opportunity of reporting to Mr. Baldwin his im- pressions of the formal signing of the Kellogg anti-war pact. On Thursday Mr. Baldwin is to address the Conservative annual convention at Yarmouth. The prin- cipal meeting of the delegates will have been held before Mr. Bald- win's arrival and as many resolu- tions are tabled relating to the safeguarding of industry, it is ex- pected that the premier's speech will deal at some length with the subject. Hon. L. C. M, 8S. Amery, Secre- tary of State for the Dominions has not yet returned from Switzerland, rand there is no reason to believe that either he or Mr. Baldwin have had any special communications re- cently with Premier King of Cana- da, or with any of the other do- minion governments, Premier King is not expected in London until next month, We have a faint susbicion that some of the modern music is play- ed simply because It sounds so nice when it stops.--St. Louis Post- Despatch, EYESIGHT SPECIALIST Author of The Eyes in Modern Life Optometry Feature Service Your Eyes and Health Eye Care and Eye Strain PHONE Disney Black 1516 ~--:i-- --r-- Opposite Post ce OUTLINE LIBERAL POLICY AT MEET Conference To See Party Form Basis of General Election Manifesto London, Sept 22.--An outline of Liberal policy, designed to form the basis of a General Election manifesto, will take the place of the usual series of resolutions at the annual conference of the Na- tional Liberal Federation to be held at Great Yarmouth on October 11 and 12. A The proposed manifesto, which covers the whole ground of nation- al affairs, will be discussed at the conference, and then i d, if the detailed proposals for carrying on this work. "Industrial Reform: The mach- inery for co-operation in industry should be improved by the estab- lishment of a Ministry of Industry with a representative council; the development in every industry equipped with adequate knowledge aud enabled under proper safe- guards to obtain legal force for its decisions the establishment of statutory Works Councils in every industrial gstablishment of a de- fined size. "Coal: The coal industry stands in urgent need of reorganization. The Liberal proposals for this pur- pose are the only practical propos- als now before the country and ought to be put into effect. "Agriculture: It is of vital im- portance that the decay of agricul- ture should be arrested, and that there should be a revival of rural lite.

WITH HEADLIGHT AND PICKAXE, HE WORKS WITH A VIM WAY DOWN INTHE COAL MINE - WE OWE MUCH TO HIM," HIS WORK GIVES THE FUEL WE FURNISH TO YoU, 'THE BEST IN 'THE MARKET -- delegates agree, as soon as poss ible. A summary follows: "Record of the Government: It is the only Government in Europe which has increased its military ex- penditure since the war. It has been slipshod and improvident In the management of national fin- ances, with the result that Britain is the only {important country whose credit has not improved dur- ing that period. It has made num- erous and insidious inroads on the system of Free Trade--it has fall- ed to reduce the volume of unem- ployment. "Failure of the Labor Party: The Labor party has proved itseif impotent as an Opposition. "Aims of the Liberal Party: The Liberal Party alone has wrought out a series of practical measures designed to extricate our country from its difficulties and to extend in the movement towards disarm- ament. "The British Commonwealth: In- ter-Imperial migration should be more systematically encouraged: the flow of capital for the needs of the Empire should be better re- gulated. A system of imperial Pre- ference, such as is advocated by Protectionists, would dislocate the tested economic system under which this country has thriven and impose on our already over-bur- dened people, and more particular- ly on the poorer classes, a serious increase in the cost of living. "Free Trade: The Customs dut- fes laid on many classes of imports are raising prices and hampering trade. The Liberal Party pledges itself to sweep away all protective taxes and take the lead in the world movement for the removal of commercial barriers. "Public economy: Large savings in our expenditure on armaments and the elimination of extrava- gance in all departmrents of govern- ment are essential to the recovery of British Trade and credit "Rating Reform: It is essential that the burden of rates, which weighs unfairly on industry, work- ing class housing, and distressed areas in which unemployment fs severe, should be relieved by a tranfer from the rates to the Ex- chequer. The method of transfer proposed by the Government is un- just and wasteful. "Unemployment: A wise policy would systematically use the sur- plus labor now available for in- creasing our national resources hy a well-planned programme of nat- fonal development.
