The other day, however, in the vil- lage of Teeswater, the magistrate undertook to define in plain words when a car driver ik intdxicated. Then the magistrate gave his decision as to the charge of eriving a car while intoxicat- ed." The officer who made the arrest said he believed the. defendant to be under the in- fluence of liquor judging from the way he was driving his car, but the trouble arose when a number of witnesses would not swear that'the man was drunk. He may have had liquor in'him, but he wasn't just exactly pi- eyed. The defendant said he was not drunk, that he had -only taken two:glasses of beer, The, magistrate gave his recision as to intoxication while in charge of a motor car: "If to any extent, however slight, his (the operafor's) judgment is impaired or his abili- ty.to drive the car is lessened, then he.is in- toxicated in the sense intended by the.sta- tute," do i "The Kincardine Review is of the opinion that this interpretation of the word "intoxi- cated" as defined both in the Criminal Code and' the Liquor Control Act is cléar enough and addsz: "If any car driver is showing by his operation of a car the slightest inability to. control same, then he is open to a charge of-intoxication while driving whether he has only taken a sip or'a couple of. quarts of 4h" Many will agree with the opinion of oy Review, : ACCIDENTS 'AND COMPENSATION This year's industrial accident record for the 'five 'months shows a decrease of 8,848 196m' that 'of last year, and the benefits awarded have decreased from $3,330,530.16 to $3,117,018.0b during the same period, During the month of May there were 6177 accidents reported to The Workmen's Compensation Board, as compared with 7.486 "during May last year, and 6,638 during May . of 1928. The fatal cases numbered 46, the same -as during May of 1928 but 14 more than 'the number during May last year. "THe benefits awarded amounted to $670,- 803.90,.0f. which $444,606.97 was for com. pemsation and $125,796.93 for medical aid, THé Benefits during May last year were $601,783.64, and during May of 1028, $54425775; WSs i PIT------------r-- : "*"BLUE RUIN CRY UNJUSTIFIED wn " Jt 'is iinforturiate that at election time there should 'be attempts made to paint a blue ruin picture of conditions in Canada. fs {snot the first election campaign = in ich it. has been done, nor is the" Coser the on) rty which has been Nate "n.1921, the blues ruin "of doing it. ¢ Is 'the slogan of the Liberal party, and vesulted in the defeat of the Meighen gov- fledeeulé of that time.

The only thing any community should regret is a lagk of newspaper mention, Whether it is good or "bad" isn't very important,--the fatal thing is to drop out of sight. Any 'able man in. the public eye who un- derstands publictiy realizes that what is vital is to keep in the public view, and if he doesn't make an ass of himself he knows that criticism rather helps than hinders him, Some of our most successful men get as many roasts as puffs. If the man has merit, the public only remembers in.a month that he was important enough to lambaste, Unim- portant people don't get lambasted, --re- member that.~Sault Ste Marie Star. THE CHAUTAUQUA Despite the vaudeville and other crimes that are committed in its name in summer programs throughout the country the orig- inal Chautauqua at Chautauqua Lake in the northwestern part of this State continues serenely on its way. Founded in 1874 by Dr: John H. Vincent and Lewis Miller as an institution for outdoor religious study a few weeks in the summer, it soon broadened in- to the most important movement for adult education that this country or any other has ever seen, Lewis Miller, the father of Mrs. Thomas A. Edison, had made a fortune as the inven- tor of a mower and' reaper, but his special interes came to be education, particularly education through the Sunday. school, Dr. Vincent was a Methodist bishop, Their cor- mon interest ih normal classes for the train- ing of teachers for Sunday schools led to the first Chautauqua, It was not long before the few weeks in the summer at Chautauqua Lake were only the climax of four years of study in homes all over the country. Men and women who had never had the chance to attend college eagerly enrolled in what came to be known as the Chautauqua Literary and Scien- tific Circle. Reading prescribed books either individually ~ or «in groups, and passing examinations, they received diplo- mas, large numbers of 'them going to the summer assembly at the lake to take part in the graduation exercises, which were un. usually picturesque and colorful. Now the summer program of what was finally christened the Chautauqua Institution includes lectures on a large variety of sub- jects, courses in various. fields, symphony concerts, operas and other educational and cultural activies, The intellectual élement in this enterprise gives distinction to the sum. mer colony at Chautauqua, It is a peculiar- ly American development and one of wide usefulness,~--New York Times. EDITORIAL NOTES I'he cost of the federal election will be about $2,000,000, After July 28 there will be varying opinions as to whether it is worth the money, According to a government bulletin, there are forty ways of baking bread. The other thirty-nine are the ways ' that usually go wrong. It hardly seems right to call it cold cash when so many people have to sweat to earn it and have a hot time.spending it, SL The Brandon Sin says the only way to kill dandelions is to blast them out with dyna- mite in winter, and 'then fill the holes with ammonia and concéntrated lye.
