DURHAM COUNTY BOYS In an editorial la The Toronto Evening Telegram headed: "Can- ada's Strong Case Argued by Great Lawyer", this tribute la paid, te a Bowmanville boy who is winning great distinction la bis profession. The editorial, la part, reads: A greater counsel than Canada's own W .N. Tilley, K. C., neyer argued a case bef ore tht law lords who form the supreme tribunal of the British Empire and the greatest law court in the world. Canada was strong la the merits of the Geverament case against the C. T. R. shareholders' appeal frein the fanding of Sir Thomas White and Sir Walter C'assels in the Grand Trunk arbitration. 1Canada's case was still further strengthened by the brilliant argu- ment ln which Mr. Tilley removed the support of every legal -principle and deminating fact frein the share- holders' case presented by Sir John Sinon, K. C. The Tilley argument on the facts and on the law left the Jaw lords witb nothiag te do 'but maintain the White-Cassels award if they acted as iudges, net politicians.

At the outset the Niagara Penînsula Association had 400 mein- bers. To-day they have over 900 members. It was pointed eut that the entire appie crop of the Province iof Ontario could be handled by the same management without entailin1g 3any extra overhead expense, as the 3tender fruits of the Niagara dis,'rict 1would be pretty well disposed of be- lfore the apple seasen started.
