when washing flannels do not change the temperature ot the wash ing and rinsing water unless you are twilling to have your garments shrink henry ford now and then says something what abot this to think straight work idleness warps the mind the practised hand gives balance to the brain the action of the stouffville coun cil in setting apart a day for the collection of cans and rubbish from the homes of the citizens is a com mendable one it would cost each individual citizen at least 50 cents to have a dray remove the collection of this nature from their premises while with united action on the part of the council it will not cost the highest taxpayer more than a few coppers besides with a day set apart to remove all such rubbish to the town dump more citizens will take advantage of it m an amendment to the marriage act the bill being brought in by mr er wingle member for c huron is being made by the provincial gov ernment to prevent hasty marriages and the marriage of minors in the first place an application for a marri age license by one party must be ac companied by the birth certificate of the other party to the marriage then each license must be dated and no marriage can be solemnized until three clear days after this date any clergyman performing a marriage under authority cf such a license within this threeday limit renders himself liable to a penalty of not more than 100 this will do away with the careless handtomouth sort of practise of even fully mature persons of leaving the procuring of the marriage license until the day of the wedding bridegrooms will have to bethink themselves and get this necessary document in good time j brackin the member for west kent has introduced a bill in the legislature giving county councils power to pass bylaws for licensing

magistrates coun oa monday last week at pickering when a cook who resides north of the rouge hill was charged with appro priating wood on the highway to his own use the charge was laid by constable chester on behalf of the township council who are desirous of preserving the wood grown on the public roads cooks contention was that he removed the timber in order to improve the road and had wit nesses to corroborate his contention it is also contended by others that the road has been injured by remov ing the timber constable chester valued the timber at 1000 but mr cook stated that it was not worth 23c after hearing all the evidence p m clark registered a conviction but let the accused off on suspended sentence provided he pay all the costs of the court the township council has no desire to prosecute any person on these charges but they are determined to put a stop to the destruction of timber on the highway there are cases where it is beneficial to have their removed such as dead trees or others that may be an injury to the road but they take the stand in no case should they be removed without the consent of the council wm keith mpp for north york supported the church

the spring of 1923 a mother bear brought into this cold and cruel world a family of three little cub3 black and curly and fat and pretty but alas also hungry proud she was of her family but pride alone would not keep up the milk supply so she turned out of her cosy hollow- last week to search for food the fluffy little fellows went out too they played in the now rolled each other in it and were having a great nime when the eagle eye of mr loshaw and the robins boys sighted their mother bang bang and she was dead for in the bush nearly everything is someone elses enemy and especially is man the enemy oc nearly everything when the report of the gun reached those young bears instinct told them an enemy was near so they huddled into their nest and hugged each other in ter- or there they were found incon sistent as it may seem the same men who felt keen elation in killing the mother felt just as keen a desire to save the children so they ten derly gathered up the family of cubs and are feeding them milk with as much tenderness as they would uso toward a human child left mother less such are the peculiarities of the workings of human hke3 and dislikes school report for march ss
