who claim that people who are hungry ragged diseased and on relief are victims of the will of god were branded as blasphemers one day recently by r- e wemp speaking in foresters hall here before a mass meeting held under the auspices of the br- itishisrealite world federation mr wemp whose subject was the national challenge declared that no nation could have peace prosperity health and happiness it it did not investigate and put into practice the economic and social laws set forth in the holy bible the laws ot god he maintained are simply the laws of nature and operate as surely and effectively as the burnt finger which results from contact with a hot stove thousands of sincere christian people claimed mr wemp have no idea what gods laws are and would ibe hard put to find any bib lical authority for bans against moving pictures cardplaying or smoking he blamed the economic social and monetary system which has been forced on our people for hav ing taught them to obey certain laws of god and transgress others the speaker claimed that the tithe or system of paying 10 per cent of income was not intended as pay ment to the church but as a con tribution to the national treasury to cover the wliole cost of govern ment and public welfare generally instead ot paying only onetenth for government he declared every canadian directly or indirectly pays 60 cents of every dollar of income for government administration cant read or write the w h shaw store when the dominion bureau of statistics starts out in pursuit of a subject it keeps on until there is nothing left to pursue one can even find how many peo ple in the dominion can neither read nor write how many can read and not write and how many can write and not read those who can neither read nor iwrite are classifed as follows prince edward island 4833 nova scotia 35485 new brunswick 40902 quebec 224362 ontario 155628 manitoba 48204 saskatchewan 65456 alberta 46604 british columbia 39825 in the yukon and north west ter ritories the number who cannot read or write runs higher than elsewhere in the country the yukon has a population of 3s69 and 1026 of them can neither read nor write and in the northwest territories with a population of 8399 those who aro listed in the class of illiterates show a total of 5352 there are in the dominion 667- 677 in the nonereading or writing class but the figures may be sub ject to improvement as the first age group given is that of from 5 to 9 years and we take it that mo3t in that age bracket would surely over come the handicap which the bur eau of statistics has fastened upon them fined for defective tires 10e30i loxaoi ioexox 30t question can a person be prose cuted in court for driving a car with a defective tire answer yes if you have any doubt about it we refer you to a case which was heard before magistrate james mc kay in hamilton traffic officer ed jess prosecuted alex iliepic algio ave longbranch and in do ing so said the majority of accidents on highways were caused by defec tive tires we were under tha impression they were caused by de fectivo drivers but it may be tao traffic officer is right after hearing the case the magls trato imposed a fine of 10 and costs if that prosecution could result in a fine at hamilton the same thing could take place elsewhere and there is nothing to indicate the de cision was appealed come to think of it we know of not many reasons why people should be permitted to use poor tires apart from the one which will say they cannot afford good ones at best that is not a substantial reason be cause an accident on the highway is likely to involve two cars and one of them may be equipped with good tires when a driver goes out with a car with poor tires it is quite dif ferent to a man going for a walk where he has onlyjliimselt to look after m this paper is not urging that a roundup be made so that all drivers using poor or wornout tires shall bo brought to court and assessed 10 and costs the money might bet ter bes pent on now tires but it is do uso blinking the fact that a defi nite start has been made and that old or wornout tires have caused one man to bo arrested and fined

likely places from which a cotton tail might bound ho came upon some bags filled with grain under the shelter of spreading cedar boughs that sloped gracefully to the ground much excited the boy

mr arnold notified provincial officer w b elliot who with chief geo purchase went out to have a look at the find they found the 1 1 bags neatly and snugly placed on an elevation built of logs and so well covered by the cedar boughs that water or snow could not get at them the bass could not be seen by a passing hunter but the fact that the boy was seeking to chase rabbits out of such hiding places was the means of making the discovery the police enquired of farmers in the neighborhood but none of them were aware of having lost any oats and some of these farmers had not threshed as the oats were evidently this years crop a number of bins were surveyed by their owners who could not say that any of their grain had been taken on the contrary they were all quite positive that they had suffered no losses by theft the thief was divested of his spoils when the oats were brought into alliston and deposited in grah ams seed house where it was learn ed they weigh 637 pounds thero are
