One cf the cases was with- drawn and one boy found guilty was Elven suspended sentence. The six others were each fined $10.00 and costs or thirty days. All but one were will- ing to pay the fine. this one saying he had no money to pay and would have to take the term. All the guns were confiscated, this being part of the pen- alty. The shooting took place in the township of Ogden. Marci} Riard was charged with for- cmly entering the premises occupied by Leo Beaudoln contrary to section 103 of the criminal code. He elected to be tried by a higher court and asked for an adjournment for a week for the pre- liminary hearing to allow of him having one of his witnesses present. The re- mand was granted. Luigi Dellantonio faced two charges, one of assault and the other of illegal posswsion of firearms while being an alien. The cases were remanded to next week. A woman on Elm street who had been dispossessed by the sheriff on account of a foreclosed mortgage re-entered in- to possession of the house after the ofltcers left. As a result a charge was laid against her under the section of the criminal code in regard to forcible entry. She was summoned to appear in court on Tuesday but failed to appear and a bench warrant was issued for her arrest. After she was brought ‘to court the case was adjourned to next week.

Pure Liquid Pet- roleum or Russian Oil Heavyâ€"Imported price . , In the police court report last week there was a reference to the case of a young man who borrowed a friend's car. and drove into a power line pole caus- ing the breakage of a wire and result- ing in the putting out of the street lights in part of the town. The Ad- vance said that the lights were off for “several hours." The power company management points out that the lights were not long of! after they were noti- fied of the matter. Within an hour of the time they were told by the police that the ligh s were out in the north- eastern part of the town, the power company had located the trouble and had the lights going again all right. It may be noted that the police inform- ed the power company of the lights being out as soon as the matter came to the notice of one of the men on patrol. It thus happens that the lights could not have been out more than a couple of hours which is good enough service. The term “several" is quite elastic. One of the definitions given in the King’s English dictionary for sever- al is “more than two, but not very many,“ so The Advance could maintain that its reference was strictly correct. Under the common acceptance of the word, however, “several" is taken to mean at least four or five, so it may be only fair! to say that under this meaning of the word the light could not be considered to be out for “several" hours. “A couple of hours" would have been more within the limit, and at that the power company showed very prompt action in remedying the trouble. The service by the power company is always good and thereyis no fault to find upon that score. Street Lights Not Off for Much Length of Time tion. Miss beck; gentlemen, first. Mr. W.

D.D., of the United Church Mission Board. will speak at the United Church, Tlmmins, on Sunday morning. Nov. 29th, at 11 a.m., on behalf of the sufferers in the drought area of Saskatchewan where conditions are such “as to rouse the de- sire of all to help these fellow Can- adians in their time of need. Rev. Dr. Cochrane. who is a speaker of unusual eloquence and power, will urge the most generous contributions possible from the good people of Timmins to the Home Mission funds, the money so rais- ed to be earmarked for use in relieving the great need of those in the drought area of the West. Rev. Dr. Cochrane is at present on a tour of Ontario to raise money for the further assistance of the Saskatchewan people who are in such dire distressj For Timmins the accredited treasurer for the fund is W. Ringsleben, and all who are able should see that as generous donations as pos- sible should’be handed to Mr. Ringsle- ben for the relief of the sufferers in the drought area. The story of the great need, of the suffering of many good people. of the hOpeless situation that faces so many. will be forcefully and earnestly told here on Sunday morning. Everyone who can should hear Rev. Dr. Cochrane. ‘He can make the appeal much more ably than can be done in these columns. There is an area in Saskatchewan approximately 150 by 200 miles in extent, and in that district the most pitiful conditions prevail. There are parts of the West that have enjoyed a rich harvest this year and so are hopeful and optimistic, even though they do not have much money as yet. In the famine area, however, were it not for the work of the United Church, the Catholic Church and other agencies for good, the situation would be des- perate. indeed. As it is, the churches already have done so much that with- Rev. Dr. Cochrane, Eloquent Speaker to be at United Church Sunday Morning to Urge Assistance for Those in Drought Area.

All who can should attend the service and learn the facts in the case. out further aid they cannot continue and starvation and misery will overtake literally hundreds of good people. For the third year in succession there has been prolonged drought in certain sec- tions of Saskatchewan and once again thousands of farmers are faced with no crop and no feed for horses and cattle. Thousands must be given food. fuel and clothing this winter. Ministers of the United Church write that ninety per cent. of their people must be kept dur-' ing’ the long months ahead. The Gov- ernments, both Dominion and Provin- cial. have recognized their responsibili- ty. Saskatchewan expects that at least eighteen million dollars will be required for relief in that province. The Red Cross is assisting in the distribution of clothing, etc. These agencies. however. have made it plain that they need and desire the fullest possible cooperation and help from the churches of all de- nominations unless suffering is to pre- vail. Hence. the present appeal. In the drought area churches are being forced to close. ministers are.without means to carry on their work. and un- less help is forthcoming the church will appear to have failed. Dr. Cochrane is confident that the church will not fail because the people will not fail in support. He says that the West is not down and out and he illustrates this fact by telling of the noble self-sacri- fice of the ministers and the cheerful courage of the people. “Come back in two years and we'll show you a coun- try!” one man told him at parting. “Such an attitude," says Rev. Dr. Coch- rane, “challenges Christian people to sacrifice effort and renewed-consecra- tion to the task of building up the Kingdom of God in Canada.” It will take thousands, he says. to help them through their time of difliculty, but he is confident of the response that will be given by their more favourably situ- ated fellow-Canadians.
