Ottawa Paper Also Thinks Toronto Girls Very Homely : The following is an edijorial from Friday‘s Obtawa Journal :â€" Looking for Hicks in the Big Town â€" Up in the Ontario North, wherse men are mon and (har‘s gold in them thar hills, there is soms inclination actively to resent ‘what seems,%o be a popular impression that the mining towns of teday are of‘ the roarinz, wideâ€"open iglo_ndykc type, lacking in the niccuies Of .civilizationâ€"towns inhabited prinâ€" cipally by hardâ€"fis‘ed miners who spend their days.. underground and their x)lghts playing poker and fighting and drinking whiskey. ‘The Timmins Advance mainiains the contrary with» its accussomed vigor, points out that the Ontario mining towns of today really are quite reâ€" spectable places.

The bride solemnly assured the reporter that Toâ€" ronto men were handsome, that the busy city appalled an innccert visitor from a part where th2 revolving door was a major myisery. And the brideâ€" stroom, not to be outdone, said in his contribution that Toronto womzn were especially lovelyâ€"and how did the bride like tha‘:?â€"â€", that Timmins was a hick town where the all would take to the bush if such a thing as an airplane wore seen. The" Advance is quit> sure the happy young ccuple were pulling the reporter‘s leg, and that the whole emâ€" phasizts its contervion that Toronto is the real hick town. But we suspect at the bottom of its annoyance is the suggestion that Tororyo has prettier girls, and betterâ€"dressed, than has Timmins.. You can utter the most deâ€" vas‘ating criticism of a city‘s morals and architecture without causing much of a stir.. The Advance would merely smile in a suprrior way if somebody declared the streets of Timmins were either mudâ€"holes or Custâ€"bins, that its psopls were crude and illiterat:. (Buit even to hint that the girls of a town are not the peers of their Parisian ‘sisters for elegance, that they lack scmething ot the charm of the finest cosmopolitan scciety, brings down upon ‘he offender the violence of outraged civic pride. 7 movie palaces, train service and brokâ€" (rs‘ offices, municipal problems and big debtsâ€"and what more can any conmunity ask? We know how The Advance feels about this sort of thing: we should feel the same if somebody in Toronto exâ€" pressed the opmion that there are preitier girls on Yonge street, than in Cotawa. (Owen Sound Sunâ€"Timgs) We heal a lot and read a lot about gamblers. Those who buy sweepstakes tickets, those who take in the horse races and patronize the mutuels, hose who buy and sell stocks ‘or commodities (hey never seeâ€"and don‘t want to seeâ€" these are all gamblers. It is often said, too, that of all the gamblers the farmer is the most inveterate. One Form of Gambling Said Too Common These Days But there is one class of gamblers that ortclasses them allâ€"pedestrians. The pedestrians, that is, who run needâ€"= less risks in traffic. They gamble with their lives and limbs every time they step off a sideâ€" walk into a stream of traffic without looking co sight or leftâ€"though they should look both ways. They gamble when they step from behind parked cars:; when they cross in the middle of the block instead of going to the intersection and waiting till the light is favourable; when they rush across s¢ an intersection right in the face of a red light; when they stroll nonâ€" chalantly "anglewise" across an intcr- section. Yet in the very face of all these demonstrations of carelessness, if an accident happons, if the gambling pedestrian is killed or injured, the motori; usually geis the blame, alâ€" thought he may have been entirely inâ€" nocent. Do Your Christmas Shopping Early. Bedtime ‘stories are the world over.

As far as that goes, Lily Pons used to have a skunk fur spread for. the bed in one of hner guest rooms; and zebra linen isn‘t unknown for spreads. T‘li prefer some of the simpler things: I‘ve seen about, however, the Scotch plaid spreads, for instance, thas are.. turning up for mapls beds. â€" Intsrestâ€" ingly enough,. the plaid isn‘t being used for the entire bed, it‘s more, likely to appear as the fAclunce than in bias bands to finish off a plain white top. piéce. in‘ place of ‘he plaid you can use fine ‘checked gingham in pink or blue for‘ a daintier spread reâ€" peat the design in a chair covyer Or valance, and se> what a change you will have made in‘ the room without spending but a few dollars. . *â€"For‘aâ€" Song â€" h Another pleasant idea that can be worked out for just a song is the us? of old time dark blue calico for a bedâ€" spread. ~Looks as nicso as an}: hing in a room with pale pink walls..

(From Toronto Telegram) What strike pickets may do and what they may not do under the law has been clearly set forth in a memorâ€" andum forwarded iby Attorneyâ€"General Conant ¢o lawâ€"enforcement officers throughout the province. While it is modestly stated that the memorandum does not presume to cover entirely t‘he law in regard to picketing it should fully serve its purpose in furnishing a guide and ready reference to police officers who are charged with the sometimes difficult duty of maintainâ€" ing order in strike areas. Muchâ€"Needed Explanation Of Law Regarding Picketing Pickets,â€"it is explained, may attend at or near a plant for the purpose of optaining or communicating informaâ€" tion, bus they have no right co interâ€" fere with the liberty of in doâ€" inz so. Disorderly conduct or:â€"vioience is just as contrary to law whether a strike is in forz:e or not. The law, as Mr. Conar:, points out, affords co every man the right to work if he wants to do so, and makes it an offensce for anyâ€" one to interfere with him. ¢ The right of labour to sirike does not confer the righs to compel others to abstain from work. The right of strikers to down tools does not include any right to intimidate, bescs or obâ€" struct any who wishâ€"to econtinueâ€"~to work in a plant where a strike has been called. It is well thes the law in this regard should be clearly understood by all concerrecd. Whatever may be permitâ€" ed to happen elsewhere it is intended that in this province the law shall be observed. With that view it miust be assumed organized labour is generally in accord. With this clear enunication "No Work The Canada Life Assurance Company,'330 University Ave., Toronto, Ont.
