The two lads had bicycled| from their hone to Poole‘s Lake, near Cochrane, where they started playing on a raft. They were using the raft as a teeterâ€"totter, when Even noticed that the raft had moved out into deep watâ€" er.

Just a that moment, however, Alian fell off the raft and in a minute had disappeared. Neither of the boys were swimmeirs, and Evan could do nothing except hurry to the shore for help.

In addition to endorsing the Attorâ€" neyâ€"General‘"s attitude itself, the Counâ€" cil asked the Police Commission to do likewise. Endorses Attorneyâ€"General‘s Contention That Section Forbidding Lotteries Not Popular and Should be Amenâ€" ded. Receive Letter from Druggists. Are Trying to Dictate to Council, Mayor Maintains. Mss Councillor Armstrong followed the formal endorsation of Mr. Conant‘s reâ€" marks with further condemnation of the section. "It is ridiculous," he said, "to think that service organizations whose main object is to relieve human distress, are not allowed to raise money by this means. "This year between 900 and 1,000 children are not going to camp because this method of getting funds has been cut offâ€"autocratically cut off." It was a shame, said the Councillor, that "reputable men" and men promiâ€" nent in Timmins were haled into Court merely because they happened to be figureheads of these organizations. He pointed out that if the service clubs were not able to continue the very neâ€" cessary work they were doing it would have to be done by the municipality and then the taxpayers would bear the load. Using the local branch of the Canaâ€" dian Legion as an example, Mr. Armâ€" strong said that last year that organiâ€" zation spent between $3,000 and $3,500 in relief for exâ€"servicemen and their families. If the Legion was not alâ€" lowed to do that work the Town would have to. "I prefer to give the people the opâ€" portunity to do a little harmless gambâ€" ling. Sudbury, Kirkland Lake and towns around permit this What is wrong here . It is simply that certain people have decided to interpret the section of the Code in their own way. What is wrong with Timminsâ€"are we too pure here?" Accordingly, the government will be told that the Timmins Town Council wants the Criminal Code amended in order to make lotteries and rafflies for charity legal. ' Druggists Reply The Retail Druggists Association wrote to the Council to inform the administrative body that it was willing to coâ€"operate in every manner," with the Council. Druggists in Timmins would be willing to close on Sundays except for the hours between 10 a.m. and 2 pm. and 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. and to refrain from selling radios, refrigeraâ€" tors and thermos goods, if the Council would do its part. The Council, in reciprocation, would enforce the Pharmacy Act and prevent the sale of drugs by other than qualiâ€" fied stores. It would also see that vicâ€" tualing houses and other establishments did not sell confectlionery goods and tobacco on Sunday. "They are asking more than we deâ€" cided upon at the meeting," said Counâ€" cillor Gauthier. "We came to no deâ€" cision regarding restaurants, We could call a meeting of tobacco stores but we don‘t want any "blue Sunday" in Timmins. "What we proposed was that they close during these specified hours and that they sell no furniture or hardware on Sunday and also that they seel no hardware during the week during hours when other stores are closed." The Mayor: "They are telling us how to run the town. It seems to be aA matâ€" ter of being dictated to by the drugâ€" gists." _Councillor McCabe thought the matâ€" ter should be deferred, and after more discussion, it was deferred.

Dr. Honey said that Mrs. Terhune was quite lucid and apparently sober when she left his office. Testifying on her own behalf, Mrs. Terhune said that after she left the dental office she went home to look for her husband. He was not there and she went to the Empire hotel to try and find him. There she had a bottle of beerâ€"one bottle. They enquired at the International Hotel and then drove down the streei and was stopped by Constable Munro. Asked why she used bad language in the police station, Mrs. Terhune told the court, ‘I wasn‘t drunk, I was just stupid that‘s allâ€"from the extraction. Also I was very mad." "There is no doubt that she was in an intoxicated condition," said Magisâ€" trate Atkinson imposing sentence. He ordered the car impounded. Lacourse pleaded guilty to the charge of drunk driving and forthwith was sentenced to ten days in jJail. He was involved in a minor accident.

Czechoslovakians Unite in Single Organization Conference in Toronto at Weekâ€"end Make Plans for National Alliance. Toronto, June 28â€"Czechoslovakian National Alliance stands for the famous "League" in Canada. At the end of a twoâ€"day conference held at the Church of All Nations on Saturday and at picnic grounds at Summerville Marâ€" ket on Sunday, the delegates who had come to participate in it from all over Canada,. resolved that all Czechoslovaks should join in one body in the "Nationâ€" al Alliance". ; | "‘There is not enough of us in Canada to form separate organizations of reâ€" sistance for Slovaks, Czechs and Subâ€" Carpathoâ€"Ruthenians. For that reaâ€" on we recommend that in every locality. | where there are livinzxy any of our | countrymen a Czechoslovakian National Alliance should be established," their resolution read. Contribute Dollar Yearly Every member of the alliance will conâ€" contribute one dollar yearly, which will be turned over in full, as a support of the movement of resistance, to the head office, which functions under dirâ€" ection of Dr. Eduoard Benes. The head office of the alliance in Canada will be in Montreal. Upon esâ€" tablishment of local branches the alâ€" liance will elect its own officers and work out its own constitution. All the officers will be honorary and will not be paid. "Further participation on the movement of resistance will depend on cireumstances and on the need for sacrifice." As the reason for the need of this alliance the resolution states: "If the naticon is living in slavery, our indiâ€" vidual lives are losing their foundation. For that reason the liberation of the Czechoslovak republic is our highest ambition and to this end we are conâ€" secrating all our existence. â€" "Wi> that in fighting for our cwn liberty and democracy we are fighting at the same time for the libâ€" erty of the whole world."

The moment to strike for he freeâ€" dom of Czechoslovakia misht come at any moment he stated, and toward that moment all Czechs, Slovaks and Carpathaâ€"Ruthenians should be united. He also brought greetingy from Edouard Benes, the recent president of the reâ€" public of Czechoslovakia who continues as the leader of his people.

Every MONDAY and THURSDAY A strong protest against the Counâ€" cil‘s proposed byâ€"law to close stores in Timmins on Hollinger pay nights was made to the Council at its regular meeting on Monday evening by J. E. H. Chateauvert. He feared that such a law would considerably curtail the merchants‘ returns on credit business as well as decrease the general sales, It would be better even to close the stores on Saturday nights than on pay nights, Mt. Chateauvert said. He would be in favour of a plan to close stores at an early hour on Saturday night, but on his own behalf, and on behalf of many other merchants as well as the miners and working people, he asked that the Council should not gC through with its plan to close stores on pay nights. "To give good service it is not enough to give the people only one night on which to shop," said Mr. Chateauvert. "F®urthermore, as you know there are millions of dollars invested in credit business in this town. All of the merâ€" chants are waiting for that four or five dollars a month which customers pay on their bills Closing on pay night at six o"clock would not give them an opportunity to get down town and make their payments." The merchants had to "get the money when they have it" or he stood a good chance of never getting it, said the petitioner to the Council. "Why is there no retail merchants association in town so that a collective opinion of the merchants could be adâ€" vanced?" asked the Mayor. Mr. Chateauvert‘s reply was that the merchants could not seem to get along. "Ekven the Board of Trade can‘t get along together," he said. The Mayor thanked Mr. Chateauvert for advancing his opinion and said that he wished many other merchants would let the Council know how they felt about the matter. Pay For Use Clinic Notre Dame de Lourdes Church was ordered paid the sum of $175 for the use of their clinic by the town. The Volunteer Firemen were paid $625, the second instalment of their 1939 grant. Permission was given the "Friends of China" to hold a tag day in Timmins on August 29. The proceeds will be used to alleviate misery caused by the war in that country. But This Fish Did Not Wear Any Sun Glasses There are numerous fish stories afloat these days, but here‘s one from a Chapâ€" leau fisherman. It appears that Elmer Leigh, on a fishing trip near Chapleau, wasn‘t having any luck one morning so he laid down his rod and reel and went for a swim. He raced down the dock and dove deep into the water, where he felt his head strike something, When he came to the surface, he looked around and saw a large pike floating beily up. In his dive, Leigh had hit the fish and stunned it. He is now conâ€" vinced that there are more ways to catch fish than with a hook and line, Here‘s Another One for the "Believe It or Not" Column The "pebble‘â€"a hard lump of grit and sandâ€"was split open by the force of the blow and a leather purse, green with age, was revealed.
