Tried to Force Girl to Come to Story of the Yoâ€"Yo Told to Timmins Lions Club The yoâ€"yo came from the Islands, Joe Lang told the Lions Club on Thursday even the expert gave a short dems{« of all the things the little toy made to do. It seems that the Islanders didn‘t like to waste ammunition so they inâ€" vented a missile that would do its damage and return to the hand of the user. The orikinal yoâ€"yos were much larger and heavier than the presentâ€" day toy, and rope was used in the place of string. On coming within yoâ€"yo disâ€" tance of the enemy, the Philippines would let loose a barrage of the heavy round wooden objects. A simple flip of the wrist was all the trained men used to accomplish the deadly object. Bright Boy Finds New Toy A bright little boy, son oi an officer of the United States army stationed there, took a fancy to the implements of war and began playing with one in the baracks. He found it too heavy and cumbersome to be much funâ€"it was tiring sport. But he found a way out of the difficulty by carving out a smaller replica of the large ons and using aA piece of string in place of the rope. A few years ago another American, seeing the toy and believing it would be popular on this continent, brought a sample to the Pacific Coast and beâ€" gan to manufacture them. In the short space of a year, the yoâ€"yo became known from one end of the continent to the other and had spread across to Europe.

While Timmins was given as the destination of the girl rescued at Montreal, the local police have griven the traffic from the town in large measure, though some of the lower class hotels are still believed to be operating in the traffic. The cases in Montreal, however, fully justify the attitude of the local police in their efforts to break up the traffic and kill the places here.
