MERRY MENAGERIE * ME SHILLELAGH AN' ME BOTTLE Two Toronto Irishmen on their way to join the St. Patrick's Day parade in Montreal were taken off a train in Cobourg Saturday night when their pent up spirits exploded, to the dis- comfort of less imbued pas- sengers. Police Chief Harold Pearse received a wire from the train conductor asking him to have constables meet the train and remove the men. Each man was carrying a special brew of "Mountain Mist" brewed by the Lepre- chauns, a bottle of gin, and a shillelagh. The two spent the night in Cobourg to dry out, and were allowed to continue their journey to Montreal Sunday morning.
