When asked why he being a Toronto resi dent bad the liquor shipped to Lisle he said it was Freedman. Everything was Freedman, yet he did not know anything about Freedman, nor where to find him in Montreal, Constable Williams gave evi- dence sbout the arrest of Kemps.

This was done with the alternative of six months in jail, At first Kempa was going to pay the fine and later decided to take the six months, After the court had been closed, Inspector gbinson received the translation of a letter Kempa had written to his wife and given to the constable to post.

SS DEAD TOWN IS ALWAYS SHUNNED Community With Such a R. Pestilence--Rests Will Keep Their Money (Copyright,1917, Western Newspaper Union) "Stay away from that town. It's a dend one." Do you want that to be said of your town? Of course you don't, for you wish, as s matter of local pride, if for no other reaton, to bave your taln stand high in the estifhation of the world, But are you sure that y6u are doing everything in your power to place your town in the position which you wish it to occupy? That is the question that every person should ask himself or herself at frequent inter- rals. x When things are running smootbly, when times are good, and when it is fairly eaay to make a good living for the wife and kiddies, it is so easy for a man to forget that these things do not come to a town a & matter of course. but ure the result of the right kind of effort on the part of the citizens of the community, It is so easy for a man to grow careless and think that hecause this condition existed it will con. tinue to exist without any effort on his part or that of the other residents of the community, That is why it is important for every one to stop and think seriously vonce in a while about what it would mean to him if the prosperity that makes life worth living for him should take wings und fly away, Nobody Loves a Dead Town Nobody likes to live in a dead town. No one even likes to visit a dead town. That is wi you sometimes hear thut warning, "Stay away from that town. It's a dead one" The town which has the reputation of being s dead one suffers ax if from « pestilence. Business men, seeking new locations will have none of it. The ive travelling salesman, even, will give it a wide berth, Those who live in it will get uway if they can When a town ix live and prosperous, lo. cal business is good, real estate values ure high und stable, labor is in demund and wugey are good, the streets ure well lighted, the residents und their property are pro- tected from robbery and fire and goo schools ure maintained for the education of the children.

SUTCLIFFE & SONS} 'eputation Suffers as From a With The Citizens at Home in Circulation. in? There is only one answer to that question. You want to live in the live town and enjoy all the good things that come to thé residents of such « community. Answer Exsily Found. 'The only question then is 'ss to how these prosperous conditions can be created or maintained and it is the easiest thing in the world to find the answer to that ques- tion. If the people of a community will keep their money at home and keep it in cir- culation among themselves, they need have no fear of ever being compelled to in a desd town. If the people will pat- ronize their own business men of sending their dollars to the mail order houses, the prosperity of the ggmmunity will take care of itself. / The local stores, to a very large extent, make every town. The taxes paid by the business men of the community are the {principal support of the schools and public institutions, It is the taxes paid by the storekeepers, toa large extent, that make possible the public improvements, the fire |protestion, the street lighting and the many other things which make a town worth living in. The mail order house does hot pay any taxes in the town from which jit gets its money. It does not help to unport the schools or the churches. It does not help light the streets or maintain the fire department. It is the aim of the mail order houses to drive small town merchants out of business, xo that the people will be compelled to send to the cities for their mechandise and they are spending thous- ands of dollars every month to secom- plish this purpose. Tf they succeed, who would pay the taxes that are now paid by the local merchants?, It's a certainty that the mail order house would not pay then. Insue Is Clear Cut the town a live one. Every dollar sent away from home to the mail order house helps to make the town a dead one. The issue is a clear-cut one and is square- ly up to every resident of the community, whether » resident of the town itself or of he country surrounding it, The man who dloes not care whether he lives in a live lor a dead town, if there ix such a man, need waste no thought on the subject, but men who wants to live ina live town cannot get away from it. It is up to him to make bis town a live one or a dead one.
