When he got to the city he drove out to a dealer in second-hand cars`on Danforth Ave. and after he had conversed with men in charge of the place for some time he returned`, to the Durant and informed the W0- men that he had just bought a Ford; coupe.

Mr. Tudhope moved for dismissal of the case when the crown had con- cluded its evidence. The judge refus- ed to concur in this request and Mr. Tudhope put his client in the box. O Brien denied that he had told the Orillia women that he was going to buy a Ford coupe in Toronto". Ac- cording to his version he said I am going to Toronto to get my Ford coupe. He was shown a sale contract sheet from the car dealer in Toronto on which his name and address ap- peared. He said the signature was not genuine and Mr. Tudhope pointed out that as his client had dealings with this firm several times the sales sheet meant nothing in this case as it might refer to another deal altogether. 1-:s.......I- 'r.1u.....- nv1r\vvv\ neru-nnu nv-ace- Frank Evans, crown af`orney, press- ed 0 Brien in respect to the signature but he denied that it was his.

I That w-hereas the killing of sheep by dogs has increased by leaps and 1 bounds in the last few years. and whereas the number of dogs kept in S the municipality` remains about the 1. same, therefore there can be but one uconclusion viz.: That the introduction of new strains of dogs, capable of, and inclined to killing of not only sheep, `but other domestic animals and fowl, C `namely Belgian police dogs, is largely ll responsible. Also the change in thelg Act whereby the municipality becomes i C responsible -for the sheep killed, with '`7 redress against the owner or keeper of t the (dog, and releases the owner of the i t ,sheep from making `any enquiry or,` search for the dog or dogs responsible ii for the killing, has had possibly asjt *great an effect on the increase as the f; 5 rorrner. as no attention or assistanceni is given by the owner of the sheep in} .having the dog or dogs destroyed, and gt the authorities are not notified in 30 time to take up the chase and locate * the dog or dogs, and some municipali- E I ties make no attempt to find the dog l` or dogs, either by instructing theirif valuers or otherwise. Some united ac- ;? tion will have to be taken by the own- 1 ers of the sheep and the township: authorities, or the old Act revived, 1` making it compulsory for the owner 5 of the sheep to make diligent search ` and enquiry for the dog or dogs be- `fore -he can claim compensation for `the sheep killed. - e Thu nnnnnh on-Hnnv-hurl fn nnnnf. nn 1 out: auucp Iuucu.

The finish was very sensational, as the score was tied and George was lying three shots, well guarded, and every- body thought it was impossible for Kennedy to score. -But Hunter never gives up trying and after consultation with his vice, Charlie Beelby, they de- cided to try for what looked like an impossible raise of a stone six feet out from the rings. To the surprise of everybody, Kennedy got a perfect raise and his rock came -to rest on the button. 'Ilhe Orillia skip was first to congratulate him, and the old rink fairly rang with the cheers of the Oril- lia curlers, who, while theyor course would have liked to see the cup stay in town, were loud in their praise of the fine play of the Barrie rink. rm 1-`ha anncnlatinn pvpnf. the semi- WAs>z._I}yIa:=ml nne pzay U1 hut: vnauu: 11113.
