He laughed at INEXPENSIVE SATISFYING so lost his job on such-and-such-a- newspaper. Out of mistaken kindness or for reasons of diplomacy and busi- ness, Editor and Publisher does not give the names of the blundering newspa- pers. but all the items are authentic newspaper blunders. No one made up any of these deliberately. That is. more than might be said about some of the alleged schoolboy “howlers.” Dif- ferent articles becoming mixed, letters being omitted or misplaced lines omit- ted or in the wrong place, and the plain pesky typographical error are some of the reasons for the blunders quoted. They make good reading for news- papermen who will thus be inspired to more carefulness. As for the general public they should enjoy the majority of them as “things that would better be left unsaid.” The following are some of the newspaper blunders quoted:â€" Publisher gives a column of blunders made by newspapers. the humour being all unconscious and unintended. In- deed, the errors instead of provoking a laugh would in nearly every case rouse bizt'er anger and anxiety. Some of the blunders might be headed why sog-and- “Mrs. Thurston Gaylord and daugh- ters are planning to tour the Black Hills. Yellowstone Park and other places of interest.

The volume, in addition to conveying some idea of the development of organization among those connected with the industrial and commercial life of the Dominion, contains much information in regard to societies whose members are engaged in professional, technical and scientific pursuits. The organizations are divid- ed into eighteen groups. REPORT ON ORGANIZATION IN INDUSTRY AND COLIMERCE The report points out that the first seven divisions contain the names of 355 main and branch associations, with a combined membership of 48.549, com- posed oi persons or Ms who are identified with industries in which many wage-earners are employed. Some of the employers included in these groups have working agreements with 'the corresponding organizations of workers covering the conditions of employment in their respective estab- lishments. In the remaining ten groups the employment of labour is in some cases only incidental, and with the exception of the retail merchants‘ section there is no corresponding body of organized workers. While in the main the associations whose names ap- pear in the report are purely Canadian, a number are connected with organiza- tions whose headquarters are in the United States. The report gives the objects of the various associations. some of which, among other things, aim to secure freedom from unjust or unlaw- ful exactions and to procure uniformi- ty in the customs and usages of their respective trades. The names of all classes of associations published in the volume number 837 main bodies and 477 branches. making a total of 1,314 asso- ciations, with a combined membership of 967 .865.

Sud- bury jewellers had previously informed the crown that the contents of Tony’s grip were .valua'ble. “The $5,000 worth of “gold dust" con- veyed in a satchel, which Tony Maty- chuk had in his hand when taken into custody by the provincial police a: the CPR. station on his arrival from Sault Ste.

SIMPSONS REMARKAILE FF ERHNGS Grensboro (Georgia) Herald-Journal â€"Rockefeller puts dimes in circulation and Woolworth takes them out. The New Liskeard Speaker last week sayezâ€"“Like the tomato crop, we found the Indian corn crop was quite an un- certain cr0p in Temiskaming although every year some of our farmers and gardeners have good crops in each kind. This year local grown corn, not only the squaw or Manitoba kind. but the best varieties of table corn have been sold in New Liskeard during the past ten days. Mr. A. Aiken of Thorn- loe says he had successfully grown corn on his farm during the past 22 years. He had a quantity of the best kind for sale here on Saturday. Local gardeners have had ripe tomatoes dur- ing the past ten days. Since gardening was done in the spring up to the pres- ent it does not appear that there has been any frost in New Liskeard serious enough to injure even beans. How- ever, the time is fast approaching when we should be on the look out for a fro-st which will injure tender garden crops, and it is best to have covering ready for your melons, citrons, cucum- bers, squash and tomatoes. We re- member when during the last week in August frosts killed vines all the way between Fort William and Toronto. So do not take chances. After the first few frosts we generally get a spell of very fine warm weather. Do not 1e; your tender crops be destroyed by an early frost if with a little effort they may be spared to ripen perfectly. A thin covering if it be but factory cot- ton, coarse bagging, or even paper will save your tomatoes, etc. Better be sure than sorry." "Don‘t palm it off on the Sudbury jewellers.” said Magistrate McKessock in discharging Tony and advising him he could keep his “gold." “J. J. O'Connor. counsel for the de- fence remarked that he would like to have the cus ody of the “dust’ to sell to‘he local jewellers. But Tony took his grip and its contents, no doubt ap- preciating that all is not gold that glitters.“ halt. assay once was the» rock upon vlnclng evldence supplled by the Co- which the charge against Tony broke down. The laboratory advised that the “gold dust" was. in reality, copper and zinc, and had no value. “When the accused appeared in court Monday morning, he appeared pretty worried, but the proceedings only lasted a few minutes. and in view of the re- port of the assay, Matychuk was quick- ly set free.
