NORTH BAY SCHOOL FIRE MOSTLY SMOKE Children March Out in Safety and Have Holiday ! Until Monday North Bay, Sept. 27.--As dense cloudse of smoke curled through the corridors, approximately 250 pupils marched in ordedly fashion from the King Edward public school, shortly before noon yester- day. The last child emerged 45 sec- onds after the alarm had been sounded, just as firemen from the Central station arrived. The fire which was speedily ex- tinguished, was discovered in -the basement by J. H. Lowery, princi- pal. Originating in an empty piano box, the flames were confined there but the dense volume of smoke em- erging from the basement created the impression that it was more gerious than it was. Pupils are re- jolcing, however, as the school hag been closed until next Monday.

G. LETHBRIDGE Identification Said to Have Been Made at Conserv- ative Convention | -- Mount Brydges, Sept. 2/--The my- sterious West Middlesex schoolboy who, according to the Progressives, is being subjected to the danger of depravity, se he picks up liquor Loftles From the ditches, has been identified Yesterday afternoon at the West Middlesex - Conservative convention the picture of the boy and his bottles was produced by one of the dele- gates, and several of his neighbors at once declared that he is Gordon Corneil, son of William Corneil of Ekfrid, and none other than the grandson of J. G. Lethbridge, M.P.P., the bone-dry leader of the Progres- sive group. According to the story, the boy has picked up 500 bottles this year. "That may. be true," said J. D. Watson of Dorchester, at the Con- servative convention. "But I know an old gentleman of eighty years, who cuts the grass along the high- ways from year to year. He tells me that he picked up more bottles from the ditches under the Ontario Temperance Act than he ever did under the LCA" Mr. Watson was announced as a former Liberal member of the Sas- katchewan legislature, who crossed to the Conservatives fifteen years gO. Reeve Sam Oakes of Strathroy, de- lared he had not had a drink for everage purposes in 50 years.

In the days of the O.T.A. he said this became a frequent duty, but since 'the advent of government con- trol he has lost his job. He has never scen one drunk under the present plan, ANOTHER MYSTERY OF THE SEA ADDED BY *QUACO QUEEN May Have Been Derelict for Years--Caught in Sar- gossa Sea Vancouver, B.C. Sept..27.--An- othew mystery of the sea has been added by the report of Captain Carl- son, master of the Motorship Par- rakoola, which arrived from Europe recently. ve Ups ; : The ship: Teft Furope on May 1 for Australia, and ten days later was at the Sargossa Sea. Sighting a derelict caught in the great dead- water, Captain Carlson turned the Parrakoola as close as possible and the captain read the name "Qutco Queen." The wreck was lumber-la- den and badly weather-beaten. Wireless notification of the pre- sence of the derelict was broadcast by Captain Carlson and the same night the United States freighter Eastern Glade replied that she had sighted the derelict on March 30. Lloyd's lists carry no such name as the Quasco Queen, and shipping lists dating back many months do not show her. It is possible she has been derelict for years, and has fin- ally been caught in the toils of that greatest of all ocean graveyards, the Sargossa Sea, where wrecks drift, endlessly through the years until they disintegrate from wear of sea- sons and rust and rot. In sailing ship days many a staunch craft was caught in the float- ing marine vegetation and abandoned because there were no means of es- cape once the vessel was well within the tangle. 7,000 LOSE WORK INBRITISH PLANT Ebbw Vale Company De- cides to Close Down Huge Concern Sr -- London, Sept 27.--The practical closing down, for a time at least, of the great Ebbw Vale Iron, Steet and Coal Works has brought an aspect of immediate urgency into the discussions between British in- dustrial leaders and Right Hon. J. H. Thomas, Lord Privy Seal and Minister of Unemployment. The Minister yesterday confer- red with iron and steel leaders, and Wednesday met leaders in the coal industry, the meetings being held informally, with the object of acquainting the industrialists with the immediate prospects of devel- oping greater trade with Canada, following the visit by Mr. Thomas to the Dominion. Sir Frederick Mills, Managing Director of the Ebbw Vale com- pany, will meet members of the Government, including Mr. Thom- as, on Monday, to discuss the situ« ation as it particularly concerns his firm. In addition to the b,000 iron and steel workers who re- ceive notice of being laid off this week, the Ebbw Vale company has announced its intention of giving notice to 2,000 colliery workers. control; that it has not ted bootlegging : that it has not 'promo- ted temperance; that it has aot in- creased respect for law; and that it has not improved social "conditions.

FINAL GAME OF 'SOCCER TOMORROW Bowmanville and Enniskil- len to Meet for Fourth Time After several weeks of disagree- ment concerning the ground on which it should be played the final of the Darlington Football League will be staged at Leskard tomorrow afternoon at four o'clock. The old rivals who have played to a draw in three previous "finals" will be Bowmanville and Enniskillen. Each game has failed to see a score reg- istered and this the last, is expect- ed to be the most exciting of the whole schedule. There will be conveyances leaving the post office at 2.45 p.m. daylight saving time and there will be no charge for fans from this town to be trans- ported to the scene of the battle. Just one thing is hoped in con- nection with the game and that ie that the players will "play up and play the game" and not quarrel amongst themselves or find fault with the decisions of the referee as this has marred some games in the past. The onlookers can do their share towards this by also re- fraining from criticizing the ref- eree and acting in a general sport- ing' manner. The regrettable in- cidents of the last game should be assiduously avoided and each and every person attending, both play- ers and fans, should see that the season is closed with a game that will be an example to follow next year, Vad RUGBY SEASON OPENS TOMORROW Bowmanville High School Team Plays in Port Hope Tomorrow. sees the opening of the: rugby season when the High School aggregation goes to Port Hope for its first game.

Rovan, whe is again the coach this year, the local boys won the Central Ontario Intercol- legiate League and are confident that they can repeat their feat. The Bowmanville fifteen are by no means the heaviest team in the lea- gue, but are very fast and have a first class knowledge of the game enabling them to show fine com- bination and perfect understanding of their respective positions on the field.
