(76c) Lower Tax Receives Royal Assent Toronto, April 1--(CP)--It will cost a little less to go to movies and other places of amusement in On- by the Ontario Legislature of the government's bill reducing roughly from 20 to 15 per cent by the bill given Royal assent Friday. The measure is effective today. The tax was reduced on the ex- pre > understanding that the re- duction must be passed on to cus- tomers. Night Clubs, cabarets and other establishments where elabor- ate entertainment is presented how- ever will cost more. Food and drink bills at such places will be taxed 15 per cent up to maximum tax of $1. Formerly the tax maxi- muia was 40 cents, Chief Justice R. 8. Robertson, acting in absence of Lieutenant- Governor Ray Lawson, gave Royal assent to 26 bills. Among the others are bills to establish an Ontario Racing Commission and to dissolve an injunction restraining the Kal- amazc » Vegetable Parchment Com- pan; from polluting the Spanish River at Espanola by waste disposal, .ppearance of the chief justice Friday marked the end of noisy debate in the legislature. The legislature approved estimates of the Labor Department during a morning sitting, and spent the afternoon on estimates of the De- partment of Education. Although Premier Frost had hoped to finish the estimates Friday, last day of the old fiscal year, the house did not get past the first item of education estimates. Estimates of five other departments remain to be consid- ered, probably next Wednesday. The fact that estimates weren't | passed before the end of the fiscal y.ar was not considered important. It has happened in previous years and when estimates for the past year are concerned a routine bill has been passed to straighten out the accounting procedure, permit-| ting technical borrowing. A. A. MacLeod, leader of the two- | man Labor-Progressive group, will! be first speaker Monday when the! budget debate is resumed. Premier Frost hopes to complete the budget | |debate Monday, and to resume the adjourned debate on second reading of the new labor code on Tuesday. | The Legislature is expected to pro-: rogue on Thursday in time for the members to rcturn home for Easter. 14-16 ONTARIO STREET (T5L1) LAFF - A-DAY COUR 1138.

ConservaTioN CORNER FOR OUTDOOR SPORTSMEN JACK MINER WEEK Approaching, as we are, the week of April 8th to 16th, known through- |out Canada as National Wild Life | Week, our® thoughts naturally are directed to Nature, Wild Life and | God's great Out-of-Doors. To think | of these things is to be compelled also to think of Jack Miner, who gave his life and his possessions for the cause of Conservation, from which, and from his foresight in which, we all, now, are benefitting. Wild Life management is a new | 1-way disc, tractor plow, tractor cul- | field of endeavor in many of our universities; that is to say, it is a new field in comparison with such branches of learning as Medicine, Chemistry, Philosophy, Theology, and so forth. Today, if one studies Nature he, in course of time, may find himself writing a thesis on the number of spots on a woodpecker's tail, or the number of breasts a cormorant has; in some cases the subject may be the length of the toenails of the ring-necked pheas- ant on Pelee Island, or the finding of "a bed bug on the back of a little | brown bats ear in Northern Al- | berta"; in one case it was "the | number of hairs on the upper eye- brow of a musk-ox in the Arctic Circle." Students such as these are referred to as scientists and in many cases have received a Doctor's degree. Jack Miner never was looked upon as a scientific naturalist for the reason that he never went to school more than three months in his life, but obtained his vast, unique and completely accurate knowledge of wild life by spending a very great part of his time during his entire life, in the open. The fields and the forests were his text- books, and the birds and animals, themselves, his instructors. The world came to know and speak of him as an "outdoor Naturalist" -- not an outdoor, scientific Naturalist. Jack Miner spent each autumn of the last fifty-one years of his life in a tent, camped at different spots in the various years, in Northern Ontario from Lake Keepawa, Que- bec, to the Lake of the Woods, Ontario. He travelled from the Atlantic to the Pacific seven times in five years, going, on one occa- sion, to Alaska, and on another to Newfoundland. Such an authority was he acknowledged to be that he served on eight Game Commissions in the United States; his duties in this connection took him to most parts of the forty-eight States, and especially to every National Park. In Canada, in 1930 and 1831, he served on the Ontario Special Game Investigation Commission. In the year 1904 he founded the Jack Miner Bird Sanctuary, which has long since become famous the world over, and which has been copied by individuals and govern- ments throughout the world, He said: "Some men feed birds in order to attract them, to shoot. My idea is to feed birds in a place of safety, to protect them." A whole book could be written solely on the tributes that have heen paid to this | truly great Nature's' Naturalist by learned and eminent persons. His Honor, Judge James Edmund Jones, K.C., B.A, MA, of Toronto, sum- med it all up when he said, "Jack Miner's home and bird sanctuary are a University of Original Re- | search." An Ottawa newspaper stated, editorially, "Not Watt, but a succession of inventors, made the steam engine. Not Bell, but many electrical experiments, made the telephone. Jack Miner, in thus sense, has given us the Bird Sanc- tuary." In 1909, Jack Miner conceived the idea--original with him--of bandiny | ducks in order to study their routes of migration. He obtained the first | complete record as to where a bird | was banded, and when, and where, killed. He banded over 50,000 ducks. In 1915 he started banding Canada Geese, and banded over 40,000. The information he secured and com- piled from this experimental system has proved invaluable to the Game Departments = of all forty-eight States in the US.A, and each of the nine Provinces of Canada, be- cause he was able to determine definitely, from the data so record- ed, what percentage of these game birds was shot in each State or Province. Thus, State and Provincial governments were able to put into effect protective measures where any excessive kill was taking place. But in the first place, in order to do all this, Jack Miner had to in- vent -his own nets. Does anyone who has not tried to do it, realize how difficult it is to trap a wild goose? Time and time again--twenty times, or more--Jack Miner built some structure of gas-piping frame, cov- ered with reels of wire netting, and awaited the next migration season . only to find that the wildfowl were too wary to go near it, Even- tually, he perfected on. But in the meantime, he had spent thousands of dollars upon the project. Many people feel that Jack Miner's greatest contribution to the public of his time was the educa- tional influence created by his Bird Sanctuary. The Sanctuary has proved itself to be a sound means of conserving wild bird life. But beyond the Sanctuary itself, Jack Miner, for thirty years, travelled, |at his own expense, throughout the (length and breadth of this contin- ent, lecturing on the subject of | wild life and its value, and educat- | ing the public in the need for con- servation. Sometimes he delivered as many as five addresses in one day. All the magazines and daily | newspapers carried articles written by him, or sketches about him, for ooth his subject and his methods |of dealing with it were priceless "copy". He wroté books, and these came to be used as textbooks, or | for reference, in the school rooms bounty paid by th eprovince for dead wolves, A total of 2,727 wolves were de- stroyed throughout the . Province during the last fiscal year accord- ing to claims for bounty, The four leading districts were Kenora with 621, Rainy River 316, Thunder Bay 320, and Algoma 201. The balance of the claims for bounty covered varying numbers, most of the other districts of the Province. The trapping of wolves is emphasized by the Department and much attention given to the best trapping methods. SH Se MUSKRAT CAN BE FEROCIOUS Renfrew -- Small, usually harm- less, creatures of the wilderness can, at times, be extremely fero- cious and dangerous out of all pro- | portion to their size, especially when cornered and their life | threatened, a Renfrew motorist re- cently discovered. The man appealed to Conserva- | tion Officer Sam Shields last week to identify the remains of a small "ferocious" animal which, he said, | had attacked him while he was shovelling his car out of a snow bank. The motorist, in describing the made up of 1,600 seedlings each of cherry, white birch and red oak. festation, officials of the Dominion being | Plant Inspection Office, approval, were consigned to Mr. J. 8.

At one side of his house, upon his own lands, he did establish such a play- ground for the young people of his | community, with an adjacent club | house set close to his own residence. Thus it has been realized, and re- | marked upon, that "Jack Miner's home is a sanctuary for birds and | boys." Truly, when the members of the House of Commons in Canada, and the Senate, in 1947 created by law an annual National Wild Life Week, and designated the time of it as on and following April 10th, in honor of that date as Jack Miner's birtt- day, and did this unanimously, then we can know how generally ac- cepted throughout the Dominion is the feeling that, as Mr. Gordon said, Jack Miner's life was "some- thing for us all to aim at." + + |ALGOMA LOSING WOLF FAME The district of Al- {goma, which for years has claimed more wolves per 'square mile than any other section of Ontario, is apparently losing its title to the far West Kenora area, according to figures compiled by the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests.
