At one time she had lived with Mike Skakcon as his common law wife, but in December, 1930, she had him charged with assault and he left town, going to Rouyn. In May of last year he returned to Timnmins bringing with him his lawful wife and children. These he left at Mrs. Leake‘s, returnâ€" ing himself to Rouyn. Some days afâ€" ter he again came to Timmins and the evidence at the trial suggested that he and Mrs. Leake quarrelled. Accordin«s to the stoery told by his brother, Nick, Skakoon struck Mrs. Leake with a firitâ€" iron and this failing to kill her he us a knife on her. A knife wound in the head was fatal. Nick Skakoon went for the police when the quarrel seemed to become serious, When the police arâ€" rived at the house they found Mrs. Leake dead and Mike Skakoon suffering from a slight wound in the breast which he said was selfâ€"inflicted. Skakcon was taken to the hospital where h2 seemed to be anxious to tell his story. He made a full confession of the inciâ€" dents of the evening to the police. When this confession was brought beâ€" fore the court at Cochrane at the assizes in April ccounsel for the defence did not want it admitted into evidence in the form it was in, but the judge upâ€" held its inclusion. On the grounds of the admission of this confession, the appeal for a new tria; is apparently beâ€" ing ‘based. Skakoon was convicted at the assizes and sentenced by Mr. Jusâ€" tice Logie to be hanged on June 10th.

Probably information in The Nationâ€" al Revenue Review, published by the Denartment of National Revenue at Ottawa, may be considered as official. Here is an article from, the current issue of The National Revenue Review in regard to fyling of income taxes. The article reads as follows:â€" This is income tax return time! _ While the budget is being discussed at Ottawa, the time for fyling income tax returns creeps on and after this week there will be penalties for those u10%; fyling their income tax returns in the cases required by law. In some other years advertisements were pubâ€" lished in the various daily and weekly papers instructing the people as to the need for fyling income tax returns. Up to this week no such advertisements have been published in the weekly press. Probably this is due to the Govâ€" erninent‘s economy plans but it looks like poor economy at that. This is a time when the generally are ‘cc‘zing for OFFICIAL information and ‘s is for this reason that regular adâ€" veriising by the Government has speâ€" clal value. is certainly unfair to ask the newspapers to publish and reâ€" publish the information in regard to such matters, but apart from this there i: the pfficial touch necessary to give such information the proper weight. In several of the Canadian provinc,s this year the fire ranging forces will be seriously reduced on the grounds of economy. The fire hazard cannot be predicted, and hence a call is being made by the Canadian Forestry Assoâ€" ciation to all patriotic citizens to exert the utmost vigilance this year and sup»â€" plement to the utmost degree the shortâ€" age of fire rangers.

A further advanâ€" tage is that the air holes form a second antiâ€"skid tread which becomes effecâ€" tive just as the first tread is wearing off, and so antiâ€"skid contact with the road surface is available throughout the entire life of the tire. "Baldâ€" headedness," as it is called in the tire industry, or in other words a smooth condition with an absence of antiâ€"skid properties, :is absent with duoâ€"tread, airâ€"cooled tires. Since heat is the prime cause of disâ€" integration of rubber molecules and the consequent breaking down of rubber compound, it will be realized that anyâ€" thing done to lessen the heat of runâ€" ning will tend to lengthen the life of the tire. Tests conducted on these airâ€" cooled tires show that they operate with 30 degrees less heat than it the case with conventional tires. Sudbury Star:â€"The notion that Baâ€" con wrote Shakespeare started as far back as 1785, says a on critic, and was qriginated by a resident of Stratâ€" ford. Trust any old home town to be the first to doubt whether the local boy really made gord. Hamilton Spectator:â€"Now comes forâ€" ward a professor of the Orient Institute of the University® of Chicago to declare that the Hittites had the fiveâ€"day week 4,000 years ago. Maybe if he delved further he might discover there were some Striketes among the Hittites. The principle of air cooling was deâ€" veloped by Seiberling and consists of a series of holes punched laterally through the tread of the tire. Its efâ€" fect is to minimize the heat generated within the tire and to permit of greater tread thickness which results in easier riding. What is air cooling, and what are its advantages, are natural questions, of the car owners. Air cooling of tires, an exclusive and fully patented development of the Seiâ€" berling Rubber Co. of Canada, Limited, is the most radical development in the tire industry since the introduction of the balloon tire, states Ken Fitzpatrick of the Hyâ€"way Garage, lacal Seiberling dealers. Airâ€"Cooled Tires Prove Have Many Advantages It is repeated that returns of income must be filed on or before the 30th April. * In the case of a corporation, the reâ€" turn should be signed by the president, viceâ€"president, secretary, treasurer, or a director, or in the absence of these the signature of any responsible official such as the head bookkeeper or assisâ€" tant bookkeeper, ‘will be accepted. It should be noted in this connection that the taxpayer is required to file within thirty days thereafter a defiinite return to be substituted for the tentative return submitted. In case of inability to file a return owing to illâ€" ness or absence from the country, the department will accept a return of the taxpayer signed by some person aSs agent who is sufficiently familiar with the affairs to permit of discussion if necessary. The act provides tha; in the event of a return of income for 1931 being filed after the 30th April, 1932, a penalty of 5 per cent. of the amount of the tax, provided the penalty does not exceed $500 shall be assessed and collected. If for any reasom a taxpayer cannot file on or before the 30th April, he or she is advised to file a tentative return which should estimate the amount of tax payâ€" able, and such estimated tax should be forwarded by certified cheque, post office money order, or postal note, as already indicated. returns While the instalment method of payâ€" ment is prrmitted under the provisions of the act, any balance unpaid after the 30th April, 1932, is subject to interest at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, and if the instaiments which are due on the 30th June, 3lst August and 31st October, are not promptly paid, there is an extra interest charge of 4 per cent. per annum. Consequently, every is recommended to pay their Payments should be made in favour of the Fieceiver General of Canada by cheque certified by the bank on which it is drawn, or by post office money order, or postal note. For obvious reaâ€" sons it is dangerous to send cash or currency with income tax returns. "‘he inspectors of income tax have enjeavoured to anticipate the requireâ€" monts of the public, and have placed w‘ it they dsem to be sufficlient forms w‘.‘h the postmasters throughout the câ€"untry. This is an added service of ths department as under the provisions the act the onus of obtaining forms and filing returns is entirely with the public.
