Fortunately that minority was not considered, but Confederation was put into effect. ; If Toronto and other Government Control cities had wanted local option, they showld have seen to it that the vote was taken upon that basis. There is no warrant for sectionalizing te Province, or in any way aggravating the cleavage between country and he vote was taken by the Province as a whole, and as a whole the decision of the people is to be enforced. The temperance people did not ask for the plebiscite, and had it Jone against them, would have been expected to abide by the decision of the people. We expect the same of the people who brought on the vote--the Moderationists. egarding Toronto, Mr. Ferguson may rest easy. Toronto cannot vote anything but Conservative, any- way. We cannot imagine Toronto voting Liberal. Mothing short of a revolution would cause Toronto to do that. If Messrs. Currie and McCausland wish to 0 out into the wilderness and flock by themselves, it isquite probable that the Conservative party will survive their absence; and it is conceivable that the Conservative party would be better without them. The Conservative party has always prided itself upon its loyalty to British institutions, and Mr. Fer- guson is to be congratulated upon his adherence to - the British institution of majority rule: Every effort for law enforcement should have" sympathetic support of law-abiding citizens. Starting at the Right End Announcement has-been made that an appeal is to be made by the Government to the brewers and distillers to observe the provisions of the O.T.A. and Announcement is also made that the '"'drys" will start a campaign to eliminate the brew- stil Both announcements are very timely and sane. When we can stop exports to Cuba and Mexico, via Frendhman's Bay, said exports to be delivered within a single day, then the enforcement of the law can be started. If the breweries and dis- tilleries will keep the law, the rest of the problem of law enforcement will be comparatively easy.

HAVE OUTING The boy and the girl who won the highest number of points in each of the seventeen school fairs in Ontario County, got a free trip to Toronto, on Friday, October 24th. The trip was finariced from the proceeds of booths conducted + at the different fairs, assisted by the Beaverton, Pickering, Claremont and Gamebridge Women's Institutes. Mr. 8. J. Collacutt's fine new buss was engaged for the oc- casion and it started out from Brech- in at 6.30 on Friday morning with the four Rama and Mara winners and picked up the other boys and girls at ' Sunderland, Greenbank, Man- chester, Brooklin, Whitby and Pick- ering, until thirty-four champions were finally on their way to Toronto. The party arrived at the Parliament Buildings at 10.40 and were wel- comed by Hon. J. 8. Martin, Minister of Agticulture, Mr. W. E. .N Sin- clair, M.P.P,, for South Ontario, Mr. R. W. Wade, Director of the Live Stock Branch, Mr. G. A, Putnam and Miss Guest, of the Institutes Branch. The party left the Parliament Buildings at 12.16 for the T. Eaton Co. store where they were divided into six groups, three groups of girls in charge of three ladies from the big store and three boys in charge of threesmen. They were shown around the various departments of the store and were entertained to a turkey din- ner at 1.30 p.m. One boy who had received his notice from the Agricultural Repre- sentative, W. M. Croskery, as did the rest, that the party would lunch at Eatons, was heard to remark an leav- ing the dinner room, "Well, if that's a lunch, its some lunch." At 2.30 the party in charge of J. A. Carroll, Asst. Director of "Agricultur- al Representatives, W. M. Croskery and Mrs. Croskery, went to the Museum, There the boys and girls thoroughly. enjoyed themselves for one hour and a half, when they were then hustled down to the City Hall where a photographer from . the Motion Picture Bureau was waiting for a photograph of the group. They went from there to the R. Simpson Co. store, where they were again divided into six groups and shown through Toyland and many interest- ing departments of this immense organization. They were taken to the Palm Room at 6 p.m. and enter- 'tained to dinner by this Company. The general manager of the store, Mr. Burton, who, by the way, told the boys and girls he was an old Ontario County boy, presided, and was assist- 'ed by Miss Daly, Mr. Snell and other prominent employees of the store. Mr. Burton showed a very keen in- terest in those boys and girls and after addressing 'the group, telling them something of his own school days, at "Green River University" as called the little white school he a he presented each party 1 Toronto at 6.40 and . consignment of tired and girl with a book entitled "A girl with a en # at 2,| to Be criminally liable; he mast have | HU YEARS Account. 16, Reach, Ivan Wallace, 8.

Dykes, Clerk-Treasurer of the Town of Whitby, was found not guilty by Magistrate J. E. Willis on a charge of stealing from A. Nesbitt, a prominent farmer of Brooklin, and converting to his own use proceeds of a victory bond for $5000.00 Accused was a partner in the firm of Dykes & Rogers, bond brokers. Rogers three weeks ago pleaded 'guilty to the same theft, and was sentenced to three years in Kingston Penitentiary, It was alleged that Dykes was present when Mr. Nesbitt's bond, with others which he had turned in to have exchanged for the 1924 issue, was handed over to a firm of former Toronto bond brokers and was cog- nizant of the fact that it had been gold and the proceeds converted to the account of Dykes & Rogers. Rogers today was the principal wit- ness for the Crown, and swore that while his partner was present when the bonds, with others, was turned over to the company, it was not until some weeks later, when clients were pressing for their bonds, that he in- formed Dykes that Mr. Nesbitt's bonds had been sold, and that he had converted a portion of the proceeds to his own use. R. H. Greer asked for dismissal on the ground that no theft had been proved by the Crown.» Magistrate Willis, in finding ac- cused mot guilty, upheld Mr. Greer's tion, stating that, for, Dykes and suggest that for the sake of i safety, simplicity and convenience you deposit your maturing bonds to your credit in a Standard Bank Savings S D THE . - OF CANADA PORT PERRY BRANCH--H. G. Hutcheson, Manager Branches also at tock, Little Britain, Nestlet tetany ot tleton ARREST FOLLOWS RETURN OF BONDS One arrest and the return of near- ly all the bonds stolen were yester- day's developments in connection with the safe robbery at the seed ware- house of Hogg & Lytle, in Port Perry, on October 11th. The prisoner is Harry Lang, a paroled man, who was placed behind the bars when he made his regular report at the Toronto De- tective Department, Ever since the robbery the Provincial and city police have been working in close co-opera- tion on the case. The bonds were re- turned to the owner, James Lucas, Manager of Hogg & Lytle, Limited, in a letter received by him yesterday morning and postmarked Toronto. With the exception of about $650 the proceeds of the robbery have now been recovered, Last Friday night in response to a phone call, Lucas went toward Man- chester," where the robbers were to hand over the bonds, worth over $11,660, in return for a cash payment of $3000. The robbers saw Lucas in communication with Provincial Con- stable Storey, and the sensational automobile chase on the Kingston Road by city and Provincial police followed. The robber's auto, with bullet holes in it, was found aband- oned on the Kennedy Road. --Toronto Globe, Oct. 29th. een) () Qn NEW TELEPHONE EXCHANGE Mr, Cameron, of the Works Depart- ment of the Bell Telephone Co., was in Oshawa, this week calling for tenders for the erection of a new telephone exchange in Oshawa. The tenders call for a reinforced concrete building, two storeys in height with a high basement. When the new building is complete the old building will be used for offices. Last year over $4,000 was expend- ed on the local exchange providing for extensions, but the system has grown to such an extent under the efficient management of Mr. H. M. Black, that a complete new building is found necessary. ROAD OPENED AT UXBRIDGE Uxbridge new cement road was formerly opened on Tuesday of this week, There was a large crowd pre- sent at the opening ceremonies, which included a street dance and speeches bzy outstanding officials. re Orme What is your contribution to the public welfare?
