He lost no time driv- ing the horse, pulling the 'two outfits, to the Redmond farm, a distance of some 28 miles. The double outfit made it more easy fo trace Martin, and) on Tuesday afternoon the police arrived at the Redmond farm to make the arrest. As soon as Martin saw them, he knew what they wanted and set off for a thick swamp at a rapid pace, Had he reached il, his capture would have been difficult. hut the officers over- hauled him within about ten rods of the swamp. 'To the police Martin admitted that he would have been away from Redmond's in a short time had they not eaught him. Stole Judge's Stove In November, 1919, Martin broke into the unoccupied house of Mr. Justice Lennox, south of Allandale, and stole a cookstove which he sold in town. A ware rant was issued for his arrest, hut the police were unable to lo- cate him, Broke out of Lockup About the same time. Martin stole a quantity of hé@yess from Brown & MeKenzie of®Midland, for which he was given a sen- tence of six months, ile awaiting removal to jail, Martin broke oul of the Midland lockup and the police failed to get any trace of him until two weeks ago. Burglary in Bradford In May, Martin broke into James Bemrose"s store, Bradford, and stole $100 worth of clothing. | p, It is also charged that on May 30 he broke inp the store of N. E, Rhodehouse, Newmarket, and siole a gramophone; and it is alleged that this was the second gramophone stolen from Rhode- | house by him, Concurrent Sentences For the Bemrose burglary, {he P.M. imposed a sentence of two and a half years, a similar period for the horse stealing and six months for the theft of the stove --the three sentences to run con- currently, Considering Martins reeord and the seriousness of his offences, two and a half years is} pretty light punishment and from the expression on Martin's fage it was evident thal he so regard- ed if, . t Other Charges May be Pres able that Martin will also be tried for breaking out ¢f the lockup at Midland and also for his offences in York Co. Marlin originally eame from Huntsville, but latterly lived near Toronto. Last year he was em- ployed for a time at the Paing- ick mill and also with 'T. Bay Point. While at the latter place he is alleged to have stolen a number of spoons and other verware, Children for Adoption The Children's Aid Society has some yery fine children for adof- tion--hoth boys and girls--agad| from three to nine years. Also one baby boy aged three months. All are in good health and some are very pretty indeed. The Society would appreciate very much the donation of a goad baby carriage, but only one is required. If you have one you don't need, just send it along or phone the Shelter and it will be called for, and thank you very much. To Bulld Nurses' Home At the meeting of the R. V. H. Board, Tuesday affernoon, it was decided to erect a home for the nurses. A committee was ap- pointed to secure preliminaty sketches and estimates for a building to accommodate the Supt., Asst. Supt. and 25 nurses. In the meantime temporaty accommodation is to be securéd for the nurses outside the hospl- tal. Murder In Your Garden .

HAD BIG PICNIC Thousands at Killamey Beach on July 1st--Four M.P.P.'s Spoke. (Continued from page 1) differed with the Premier was the Superannuation bill, He believed 'hat a man should get adequate Pay as he goes along and have nothing coming to him at the end of the road. In the case ofthe 1110 civil servants there were some 110 who were not able to work and had not been getting an adequate salary, so there was Seme warrant for the course taken by the Premier. If super- annuation went no further it might do no harm. After refer- ring to some of the grievances that had been adjusted, he said both Labor and the farmers must look to Ottawa for the main ad- justments. M.P's had been too busy louking after their salary grab to pay attention to Lhe wants of the common people. When the time comes the people wilt express themselves on Federal matters in no uncertain way. After briefly speaking of the progress the U.F.O. had made, Warren Stringer, M.L.A. for Haldimand, furmers but very many people in the towns and cities are thinking along the same lines and this is @ great source of strength to the movement. He emphasized the im- nee-of organization and said thal this is the reason the farm ers are making their strength fell su much today, "We don't want to allow.any antagonistic feeling to develope between the town and the cyun- try." said G. H. Murdooh, the We momber for Centre Simeon. want the towns and they want us and we should work for the ada vancement of our mutual' ine lerests, Every U.F.O, member is willing to give the other fellow {Murdoch touched upon inust important matt with at the recent session of the 'Legislature. Regarding the power rates, he held that a more uni- form price for power should oblain throughout the provine that proximity to such great na-- tural resources as water powers should not @htitle certain muni- cipalities to much lower 'rates than those enjoyed by places more remote, when all are helping to carry the burden, Conservation of the nataral res sources is one of the policies of the present Government, Had "|this policy been followed in the past there would be little need now to levy taxes for provincial purposes. As a result of the en- quiry into the timber transactions it is hoped to have returned at least. a portion of the monies wrongfully taken from the people, Ne was glad to see that Simcoe was the first county to lake steps towards reforestation. He was much pleased to sea that Middlesex farmers had de- cided upon a weekly half holiday, If there were more outings like this picnic farmers would enjoy life better and there would be lesa trouble keeping the boys on the farm. Farmers have been keep- ing their nose too close to the grindstone. By getting out and seeing more they would not only add interest to life but would al- so increase their efficiency. Chairman Evans agreed that the half holiday is coming for the farmers,-if for no other rea- son than that the farmers will not be able to get men unless they give the half holiday as is done in the towns, Just before the meeting closed Mr, Evans announced that in the last two weeks 250 new members had been signed up for the U.F. O. in South Simcoe. After the National Anthem had been sung, those who had been listening to the speakers turned to the base- ball games, a report of which will be found in another column. Milling Accounts The Wheat Board will be dis= continued at the end of July and after that there will be an open market both for winter and Man- itoba wheats. Accounts owing the flour mills must be paid promptly--not later than the end of July--as a complete report 8}from each mill must be in the- hands "of the Wheat Board, by July 31. ¢ --Ed.
