Billy Cumby, a versatile colored comedian, will bring many a laugh with his flow of ready wit. The second act is a musical eartoon nov- elty by Austin & Cole. FILM OAMERAMEN : ROUTED. BY. B Many Thrills During Filming of "The Valley of Silent Men" A bear hunt and a subsequent scramble of cameramen, was an un- expected event during the filming for Paramount of the new 'Cosmo: politan picture, "The Valley of Sil- ent Men," featuring Alma Rubens which took place recently in the wilds of the Canadian Rockies, where the company was "shooting" the exterior scenes, Frank Borzage, the director, with an eye to the realistic, asked for some real mountain bears. Camera- men and prop boys went bear hunt- ing. "You know how to get 'em boys, don't' you?" asked Borzage, "Just smoke 'em out, you know." Hours of searching brought the men to a lair on the side of a steep mountain near Field, B.C. Accord- ing to the game laws of Canada, it is permissible to shoot a bear, but only with a camera. The smoke quickly induced the bear to leave her hole, But when she did leave, it was upon the heels of the camera- men. And .to' their consternation, a couple of cubs followed, Prop boys and cameramen melted into oblivion. Finally the cubs climbed a tree, where they were shot from all angles, including the "coveted close-up" although they displayed no great exuberence at being thus honored. All ot which goes to prove that bears lack entirely any desire to shine before the public eye on the screen of the motion picture.

If the Council desired the name of the dealer Reeve Morris stated that he would supply it. 'In reality Council- lor Trick and Reeve Morris were away on their trip of investigation 'I to the mines. In part Reeve Morris said: "There is ample coal at the mines. I was informed by a man who knows. The reason we are not getting the coal here is because the recent rail- way strike in the United States has left its effect. It would be much bet- ter for the town to buy coal even if a silght loss were suffered than that any home should be without coal. 'I have every reason to believe erate with the fuel committtee, How- olution to that effect. 'I don't religh is satisfied, I'll stick to the job."

Councillor Trick ex: plained, however, that he expected coal shortly that would cost but $15.20 to bring it here, thus enabling the sale of it practically at cost by the town. Preston Again "The dealers are not on trial for past sins, if any," said Councillor Preston, rising again, "What I'm interested in is the present situa- Was it Line coal or Independ- "I don't think an arcswer to that question is necessary," replied Coun- cillor Trick, "If 'Cobourg ean get more Line company coal than it desires, why can't Oshawa get some?" inquired Reeve Morris. "The coal dealers must-make a profit on the coal they handle to cover overhead," said Councillor Preston, "You must remember," said Coun- clllor Trick, again taking the floor, "that the dealers plac2 their orders in the spring, and can get the price right. That's why we can't get coal at the mines at $8.15 per ton as the dealers 'could have done earlier in the year. Furthermore we inter- viewed operators who bave received orders from Mr. Fowlds and Mr. Lander and we made it plain that we were desirous that they should get all that they could. This man said that both dealers would get plenty a little later on." .Councillor Johnston then arose and asked Councillor Trick if any of the local coal merchants were . get- ting any Old Line company .coal. | Councillor Trick replied that they were undoubtedly getting some. .He expressed the opinion that it was strange that an individual could buy coal for $11.25 per ton and bhiing it here for $14.64 enabling him to sell it at $16 per ton if the dealers could not do the same thing, t Ellis Fair Deputy Reeve Hill got into the discussion with the remark that if the price set by Fuel Controller Ellis was not fair to the dealers then that gentleman should resign from his position. He added however, that fectly fair. "Did Ellis make an actual inves- tigation = here?" asked Councillor Stanton. Councillor Trick replied to the question as follows: "The Town Clerk notified all the dealers that a meeting had been called by the fuel controller of all dealers the matter in Toronto.

Couneillor Trick also took up the cudgels, "Why didn't the coal men accept Mr. Ellis' invitation to go to Toronto?" asked the councillor, "Why didn't you ge' us an auto- mobile to take us down to Toronto," queried Mr. Fowlds. '"Becauge we didn't have to," re- plied the chairman of the fuel com- mittee defiantly, Councillor Preston then queried as to whether it was illegal to rescind the order of the fuel controller. People Are Satisfied Councillor Brown then arose and said if the council were to be defeat- ed that it should be defeated honor- ably. "The dealers were satisfied," he said, "when we decided to ask the fuel controller to fix the price of coal here. I for one am not going back on my word, We dJid the right thing in asking the controller to fix the price of coal and tke people are satisfied, too." At this juncture the Mayor ruled that the discussion should end. The report of the beard of works was then read by Couneillor Trick. One of the dealers, Mr. Hen- ry, endeavored to have the discus- gion reopened, He threatened to close up shop. Mr, Henry wanted to know if the council would prevent the coal dealers from selling above the price fixed by the controller. Reeve Morris advisel Mr. Henry not to ask too many questions and refused to answer the question. "Un- til we receive am answer to that question we'll close np shop," the dealer said. however, and the order of the fuel No action was taken, |, controller stands as it is.

We have disposed of all the cases submitted to us by the Crown and were sorry to find many degrading cases placed before us. We have visited the gaol and find it clean and well kept and comfort- able, and found no complaints from the prisoners. We also visited the House of Ref- uge and found it clean and well kept, which reflects great credit on Dr. Lavery and the Matron. We found sixty-seven inmates theréin and upon our questioning them, they had no complaints to make of the treatment they received or the food served to| them, and they looked clean and | comfortable. Mr. Lavery drew our attention to some improvements made by the County Couneil, which adds greatly | to the usefulness of the building and the health of the inmates therein.
