The accused alien smiled at this. The magistrate took the smile off the alien enemy‘s face with the sentence, "six months in jail." Twenty years ago The Advance asked the Ontario Department of Education to investigate a rank injustice done to the merchants of town and to the people in connection with the sale of certain school books. The Advance, in part, said: "As usual each year since the big departmental stores have been allowed the privilege of publishin‘z cerâ€" tain school books, book stores in the towns distant from Toronto have had difficulty in securing certain books for the school opening. In Timmins this year the dealers have not as yet been able to get a supply of Public School Arithmetics, while orders for other books are reported as only partly fillâ€" ed. The Ontario department of Eduâ€" cation should investigate this matter. Of caurse, there are a number of exâ€" cuses offered; but neither the dealers nor the public want excuses; they want the school books. If the publishing of the schcol books by a departmental store firm is, as claimed, a fairer and squarer dreal for the people in gzeneral, there should also be a fair deal for the publishers who make a business of pubâ€" lishing books and who have no axe to grind through local dealers being unâ€" able to fill orders. Then there might be a fairer and squarer deal for the public and the merchant." Over 500 psople went out on Sunâ€" day, Sept. 8th, 1918, to the big Miners‘ Union picnic at Wilson‘s farm, Porâ€" cupine. event had been postâ€" poned from Labour Day and though the weather on the following Sunday was not ideal, being cool, it was much better than Labour Day. Despite the coolness of the weather, everybody had a good time at this picnic. The Italian band and the Finlander band were both in attendance and gave music for the occasion. There was an attractive programme of sports and gensral day of p‘leasure. Falls and Mr. and Mrs. Cook were about to Gdepart for Iroquois FPalls. "They have been prominent and papuâ€" lar and highly regarded in the Order and in social circles," said The Adâ€" vance at the time, "and their departâ€" ur>» is much regretted." In September of 1918 a shipment and kesep tluar home together. ‘casc was remanded for a week to allow faithful. «nother Austrian was blamâ€" ed for the trouble, and the magistrate suggeosted that police ship this homeâ€"breaker to the prison camp, and that the man and wife, who a nice baby boy, make up their differences The marked olive oil" came into the camp,| the parties to settle the case out of but Officer R. Allen took it in |court. The polics did their part for charge, though perfectly anxious to l th»> Austrian said to be responsible for hand it over to anyone who would claim to be the party addressed. The "olive oil" looked, smelled and tasted like highâ€"wines. All sorts of schemes were used under the O. T. A. to bring liquor into camp. One shipment was marked quite plainly "zasoline," anâ€" other "dynamite," but Officer Allan was a most suspicious gentleman these the cjuarrel between hussand and wife, and he decided to leave town and enâ€" trained for Hamilton. The husband, however, impelled by some reason unâ€" known at the time, returned from seeâ€" ing this fellow depart and, draging his wife out of bed, choked her into unâ€" eccnsciousness. Then h> went down to the river, and after removing his hat, days.

The more innocent _about 15 feet of water, less than 15 a parcel appeared, the more likely he was to have a hunch that it was‘booze, and it very often was just that. Twenty years ago the Dominion Exâ€" press ~Company men were out on strike.

It was thought that his intention was to kill his wife and die himself. The wife, however, recoviered and was practically none the worse for the choking. His fellow countrymen gave the husband a great funeral. Before he was buried the coffin was stood on end and a picture takn of the body in this position. They also put soap and flowers and other things in the coffin, and a wreath of red flowers around his head was anâ€" other attention.

That the comâ€" pany will not be anxious to recognize the unicn may be gathernsd from the fact that wages on the Dominion Exâ€" press are from $10 to $15 per month lower than on the Canadian Express doing exactly the same work. Unless the matter is adjusted there is danger of a complete freight and express up on the railroads, as the expressâ€" men‘s union is affiliated with the unions of the freight handlers and othâ€" er railroad workers who may be forcâ€" ed out in sympathetic strike."

But not so a credit managzer. Inâ€" stead of excitement or fear over the matter, the Sudbury credit manager just laughed over the epistle, He told reporters for the newspapers that he hadn‘t notified the police. "The letter is obvicusly the work of some ‘crank," he said. Credit managers do not have much fun these days. There have been sugâ€" gestions even in Timmins that some people will go to any length to annoy a credit manager â€" even to voting against him. They are even worse in Sudbury, to judge from despatches from that city last week. One of the credit managers in Sudbury was the recipient of a letter that would curdle the blood of some but is not likely to affect the pulse of a credit manager. The letter, of course, WAS signed "The Black Legion," and there was consequently no clue as to who wrot> it or why. The letter was very poorly written, the usual doubt arising as to whether the writer was really as ignorant as appeared or whether that impression was not deliberately fosterâ€" ed to confuse the issue and to give a false clue as to the standing of the writer. The letter was signed with a double cross and a circle with the words, "The Black Legion" above the signature. The letter reads as follows: "We give you one day to leave town. Remember w don‘t like double crossers or anyâ€" who uses our people mean. Don‘t report to police or you will have no pdlice force. Remember, be closed by Thursday, or else suffer, not only you people in the office, but your family will suffer also. Now if you do as we say, no one will get hurt, We don‘t care for police or law. We let you know when to open up again. Th Legion always lives up their promises. We will ‘be in to see you have gone. Reâ€" member we have warned you, The Black Legion." If the purpose of the letter was to frighten the Sudbury credit manager, then it must be admitted that the letter was a sad mistake. Some people might be alarmed at receiving such a letter. as appeared or impression was now delib For the past three years this has been a successful extraâ€"curricular acâ€" tivity. For two of these years the bloom has beren so arranged that a hundred pots or more were out eat one time, at which tim> a "Gardening Club Tea" was held. This helped to provide funds and to publicize the acâ€" tivity; but the most important benâ€" fit was the experience it gave the school girls in serving at an afternoon tea. However, in order to have the flowers spread over a longer s2ason, the tea has been dispensed with this vear, and the club is believed to be mcr2» effective. This year one tray, containing eight King Alfred Daffodil bulbs, had 31 blooms about 20 inches high, all out at the samse time. For an oddity try a few bulbs of the Fall Crocus. Place them as received in a warm north window and watch the mauve flowers unfold (no carth or pots necessary). The paperâ€"white narcisâ€" sus, the crocus, the daffodil, the early tulip, the hyacinth, the narcissus, and the Darwin tulip follow one another in this ordsr. In southern Ontario many of thess bulbs may be again used outâ€" cofâ€"dcors and the school neighborhood thus beautified. For the benefit of others who may desire to grow flowers indoors a few of th> varieties most popular in Timâ€" mins are enumerated below: Crocus: The Bishop (a deep purple), Purpurea Grandiflora (light); King of the Striped (striped purple), Mammoth Yellow (vellow).
