FISHERMEN'S NETS DAMAGED IN STORM Whitby, April b6.~--~Damage to the nets of the fishermen was one result which attended the heavy storm on Lake Ontario last Mon- day. One fisherman who uses the local harbor as a base for opera- tions had nets out when the storm arose and was forced to leave them until it abated. Fortunately the nets were not lost but they were torn in many places, render- ing extensive repairs necessary. Fishing, like farming is one of the earliest occupations known to man and the garnering of the har- vest of lake and sea does not al- ways give certain reward. It will be recalled that last fall the local fishermen sustained considerable loss when their nets were dam- aged in a storm.

SCHOOL ATHLETICS UNDER DISCUSSION) Sarnia Principals Says They Often Hinder Academic Work Toronto, April b5.--Establish- ment of a minimum standard of academic success for all students engaging in school athletics was recommended by F. C. Ashbury, principal of Sarnia Collegiate In- stitute, in an address to members of the college and secondary school department of the Ontario Educa- tion assoviation, at University col- lege recently. Mr. Ashbury suggested that tht danger of athletics occupying too much of a boy's time, to the detri- ment of his scholarship, could be overcome by requiring a mark eof at least 50 per cent. in school ex- amination before permitting a boy to engage in athletics. Studies, he said, were frequently neglected because a boy engaged in too many sports. A should be made, he thought, as to the number of major sports in which a student should participate. Outside organizations such as church clubs and the Y.M.C.A., could help by deferring more to the schools in matters of sport, so that if a school allowed a boy the minimum time for athletics, he would not be required to devote time to sports not affiliated with school activities.

These rooms include Miss Mont- gomery's. with 46 pupils, Miss Sar- gent's with 465, Miss McGregor's 47 and Miss Moore's with 45. These classes have been attending since September and are not ready for promotion until June. Under pres- ent conditions, it will be impossible to take in beginners after Easter.

NEW NAMES FOR OLD PLACES IN TURKEY CAUSE SPELLING CHAOS London, April 5.--When the Turkish Government ordered all shop and office signs and names wv be changed to the new letters of the Latin alphabet the officius spelling dictionary had not yet been published. The only principle which the population could go uy on was that the spelling was to be phonetic, So they said their own names over to themselves conscient- iously till they got what they wes lievd to be the right sound and spelling, and proceeded to make the alterations demanded by the auth- orities. The consequence is that there is now a chaos of spelling all over the country. In Constantinople it hua been decided that all municipal of- ficers are to go round all the busi- ness quarters and order the inhabi- tants to adopt the official spellings. They will carry the official spelling dictionary, and when they see a misspelling will make the persons responsible change it within a week under pain of a fine. The confusion at present extends even to persons' own names, Thus Abdoulla effendi has been repri- manded for giving himself three letters too many and obviously be- ing under Arabic influence still. He is to be made to take out the 0, one of the I's, and one of the 1's, Then he will be orthographically a true Turkish citizen called Abduia efendi. At present doctors call themselves "dokdoru" or "doktor" on their signs, apartment becomes "apartamani" or "apartman" and everywhere there are a thousauq and one divergences. The municipal spelling officers will put-this right, but for a long time the population will find con- formity to the official spelling one of the hardest points in the new language. When "club" can be indifferently written--according to mere sound--as "klubu" and "ku- lupu," it will be hard to keep to the spelling alone approved offi- cially. There is also at present a lack of copies of the dictionary, so that the population in its ordinary writing has to follow its instincwa and hearing. Three colors, singly or in com- bination, can be applied to con- crete or terra cotta building blocks with a new spray gun. There are 15 goldfish farms in the United States, distributed among nine states. Yee CAREW LUMBER (0 7 OSH RANCHERS UNITE FOR HOLIDAY TRADE Leaders in Wyoming and Montana Combine for Protection New York, April 5.--It's not go- ing to be so easy for the riff-raff to break into the wide open spaces this summer, and fall off honest ranchers' horse and eat their beans off honest ranchers' mantel- pieces. Tombstone, Cody and Red Gulch and those places where men are men and pintos are transportation have organized to protect what's left of the wild and woolly from the indiscriminate influx of Broadway tenderfeet. Not that they want to keep them out entirely, They want to get 'em in. But not the riff-raff. This summer brokers and bond salesmen with a yearning to wear chaps and lasso a calf will exchange referen- ces with the Dude Rancher's Asso- ciation, which has opened offices in the Park Central Hotel. Then if everything is satisfac- tory, introduetions may be arrang- ed all around and the dude allow- ed to enter the state of Wyommg and Montana. If hé comports him- self peaceable-like after he gets there, pays his bills and doesn't ar- gue about how to pronunce "whoo- pee," it'll be "Howdy, pardner, set down and rest yore hips a spell" from then on. There never was a friendlier lot of men than live in Wyoming and Montana, T. Joe Cahill, the head of the Dude Ranchers' Association explained today while he mopped the sweatband off a 10-gallon hat and straddled one of the Park Central's most roccocco chair. They like company, and a good many of the ranchers have gone so far as to build extra ranch-houses just to take care of the summer trade, which sometimes brings in more than the cows do. Business Growing The Dude Ranch business is growing every year and that is just the reason Pardner Cahill, a noted wolf-killer in his day, step- ped in and helped put the thing on a big business basis. 1Wo things started happening. An honest rancher would get a con- signment of eastern dudes and dudines, as the lady dudes are called, which would turn out to be away below par. The visitors would cause all kinds of trouble on the ranch and stir up dissatis- reservations by making wise-cracks at tribal dances and other festivi- ties. . Then, on the other hand, said Pardner Cahill, a lot of grade A dudes have been gypped by fake ranchers who set up shop just to catch the summer tourist trade. Never See West 'They' never see real west at all," said Cahill. "They might as well have taken a Chinatown bus ride." Pardner Cahill has 128 of the leading ranches in Wyoming and Montana in his association, he said and expects a new era of better feeling between the States of Wy- oming and Montana and the bor- ough of Manhattan to dawn very shortly.
