PARIS IS CLOSED Paillard's, " Formerly Fre. quented by King Edward, Goes Out of Existence Paris. -- Paillard's, the restaurant made famous by late King Edward VII's discriminating patronage, has closed its doors, It is the last of the famous boulevard temples of good eating to go. Like Tortoni, the Cafe Anglais, the Maison Dore and the Cafe Riche, it is but a memory of a time when one went to a restaurant to eat and not to be entertained, when a meal was a rite and not a mere feed, The death of King Edward and the suspended animation of the war per- iod proved fatal to Paillard"s, al- though latterly an attempt had been made to bring it up to date, house in which Paillard's was install- ed was built in 1792, It is said that Louis XVI, passing to and from his prison in the temple to his trial be- fore the national convention, was wont to comment on the progress the masons made. There was always a restaurant there. Bignon first gave it a certain reputation but Paillard, who purchas- ed it in 1896 made its cuisine, wines and service famous among gourmets the world over. LEGAL BATTLE OVER WOOD IN NEWFOUNDLAND Miles of Timberland In Dispute St, John's Nfld--On legal proceed! ings taken before the Supreme Court of Newfoundland and the Privy Council, depends control of some 16, 000 square miles of timberland in the Ancient Colony and Labrador a Col- lection of tracts which equal two. fiirths of the total area of the Island itself, From the Supreme Court the Gov- ernment seeks declaration of forfeit- ure of the leases under which thos very considerable portion of New- foundland's timberland is held. Sev- enty-five writs have been issued, twenty-three of which are against Mines and Forests, Limited a sub- sidiary of Reid Newfoundland, Many of the. other licenses are held in Can- ada, the United States and in Eng- land, several having been issued as long ago as 1902 Failure on the part of the lessees to implement conditions of lease call- ing for the undertaking of certain development operations within a giv- en period, is the ground on which the government seeks cancellation of the leases. If this contention is upheld the holdings will revert to the crown. The original terms called for pay- ment of an annual rental of $2.00 per square mile with a stumpage fee when the area was worked, The au- thorities have retused to accept fur- ther rental payments, and the holders are claiming that since the govern- ment accepted rentals for some years, they were justified in taking it for granted that the provision requiring operating on the lands had been waived. The first case in connection with the matter was that of M, E. Martin, one of the license holders, who asked the 'court some months ago for a declaration that his title was valid. Decision was given against him, and he appealed the case to the Privy Council where judgment is still pend- ing. The lands 'include about 5000 square miles in Newfoundland and 11,000 in Labrador, individual hold. ings carying from 10 to 1,000 square miles. Certain of the lands in Newfound: land are included in the block known as the Gander area, owried or held under option by the Reid Newround: tand Company, which formed the bas- is of their megotiations with the Hearst Syndicate through a subsid- iary. The establishment of a news- print mill of a capacity of 1,000 tons daily, was contemplated provided that additional timber required might be obtained from forest lands they hop- ed to lease from the Government in Labrador, Any such negotiations will he stayed until a decision is reached on the validity of existing Control of 16,000 Square | SNOW CLEANING HAS NOT COST ONE GENT HERETHIS WINTER Last Winter, Up to Decem- ber 31, Bill Was About $2,600 "Thousands for relief, but not one cent for snow-shovelling." That has been the situation in the city this year, Although the cor- poration Tas been forced to give employment to many citizens in re- lief work of various kinds, so far there has not been any necessity to hire men to clean the streets of snow, King Winter has been more than kind, for his snowfalls have been few and light, This condition is the exact op- posite to the one which prevailea here last winter, Up to the end ol December 1920, the city had spent. $2,600 for snow cleaning, durin the fall and early winter season There were two falls of about three inches during the early part of De cember, and just a few days before Christmas, a real storm howled down upon the city and left 1% inches of snow lying like a blanket on outdoor Oshawa, The city en gineer's department took on a larg: gang of extra men, and worked night and day, and succeeded | clearing the streets in time for the last minute Christmas shoppers, | was a heavy task, and it took ove $2,000 of the people's money, it had to be done, FAMOUS ACADEMY CLOSING DOORS but Record of Pupils Now Famous Montreal, Que. ~St. Patri i Academy building went out of hus ness recently after having served the education of Montreal for 25 years The school is being pulled down in connection with the new terminal of the Canadian National Railways The history of the education of the Irish-Canadians in Montreal dates from 1843, when two classes were opened for them in the convent of the Recollets, but the continuous his tory of St. Patrick's School really 'be said to have begun son years later when the Christian Bre thers devoted part of the buil of St. Laarent College in Ci to English-speaking | | rent College itself under the hammer tt 1 1 1] d is abont of t v0 nd 1 ist a al t d CoO n By t dems comn school crected pupils wer Thi Hamous of 10 classes for and cight devoted to Numbered among its pupils hay many who have made their mark the life of the city and of the Dom- inion, "St. Pat's," as it is aflection- ately called, has always been a feeder of the professions, The following priests here received their early edu cation: Rev, Fathers Cooney, Tho- mas Bracken, Gerald Berry, Wil liam Ryan, Mclville Dawson, Donald Feron, and Edmund Jones, and Rev J. Penfold, SK. To the educational life of the country, St. Patrick's has contributed five Christian Brothers Rev. Brothers Raymond, Hubert, Leo, Paul and Barnabas, Distinguished teachers have been connected with the school, Its first principal, Brother Patrick Murphy, eventually became the first asssitant general of the order and established many schools in England and Ire land. Brother Facile, and early prin- cipal, became assistant-general of the order in the United States. Brother Artony established Manhattan Col lege, New York, in 1860. Brother Arnold founded De La Salle Col lege, Toronto, in 1869, That the principals and other bro- thers on the staff have been men of vision is to be seen in many ways The school was the first in Montreal to dnstitute the teaching of short- hand and typewriting. The record in preparing pupils for matriculation bears comparison with any in the province, and many students who went from St. Patrick's to McGill selves, Tom Dodge in the Milan Standard says he supposes he will never live to again sce the time when a man could get a shave, a shine and a ci gar out of a quarter and still have on Sunday--Galt Reporter, leases, Meanwhile, Mines and Forests, Limited, have applied for an order that the Gander Valley Power and Paper Company be added as defend- ant with them in the action. E in the year the Government has issu- ed writs for the cancellation of lic- enscs, operating conditions of which had not been compiled, with. Rentals were due on November 30. On Nov. 28 Mines and Paper Company trans- ferred their holdings to the Gander Valley Power and Paper Company, but when the rents were tendered on the following day, they were refused because of the writs then issued. On December 15 the government with- drew these writs and issued new ones, including non-payment of rent al in the grounds on which cancella- University have distinguished them | a nickel left for the contribution box | | "St. Pats" Boasts Proud |, d N i Lr Winter Isn't Winter In Oshawa So The weather in Oshawa and district Ras been far from wintry during the past few days and it is difficult to imagine that this is supposed to\be the depth of win- ter. There is practically no snow to be seen and about as little ice. Those who must continually think of coal bills are pleased with the unusually mild days but others who delight in winter sports, such as skiing, tobogganing and snow- shoeing find conditions entirely un. suitable for indulging in such sports, Years ago it was not so, accord- ing to old timers who love to tell of the time when winters were really winters, They can. well re. member when country roads of the district were piled high with snow and when snake rail fences were lost to view under the great drifts, There was a charm about days too, the tinkling of sweign hells, the quiet stillness of the vhite landecape, people skating on those | Far This Year It was a common practice then for whole sleigh-loads of Oshawa folk to drive into the country for the purpose of calling on some friendly farmer, The very drive, in sleighs with straw to protect one's feet from the cold and with buffalo robes covering one's knees, behind a team of horses trotting resolutely through the snow and with sleigh-bells ringing merrily, Finally the sleigh would turn in at a lane leading to a farm house, A collie dog would bark and the door of the farmhouse would open dis- closing the figure of the farmer as he shouted greetings to his guests, Rural residents felt themselves more or less "shut in' during the winter months and visitors from town were always welcome, One can imagine that the evening would pass quickly and pleasantly and that not the least delight would be the ample and delicious feast pre. pared by the hostess, the frozen ponds at night, moo light bathing the spires and roofs of the town and the snow spark ling like a million diamonds, vigorous season ft But those days helong to the past. Winter seems no longer the used to be and certainly there is very little snow, CITY AND DISTRICT NEWS POLS OPEN UNTIL 7 The polling booths for the muni cipal election today will be open until seven o'clock this evening.

Immigration Laws Require Curator of Boston Museum to Return To England Boston, Mass.--~Although he enjoys an international reputation as an ex- pert and connoisseur of art, amd was recently appointed curator of the 1,- 500 pictures at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts which are valued at approximately $2,000,000, Philip A. Hendy, a young Englishman, was in- formed that he was not rated as a "leraned person" under the immigra- tion laws and that the time limit al- lowed as a visitor to this country colud not be extended further, Hendy said he 'would return to England shortly and re-enter 'the United States under the yearly quota from England, As the first curator to be given charge of the valuable collection at the Boston museum, he has been commissioned by the trustees to sel- ber, 1929, llis investigation of the unmigration laws, he said, revealed that no particular time limit was placed on the stay of "learned per- ons" in this country, but individ- uals under the classification were lim- ited to teachers and instructors in accredited schools and universities, A number of officials had told him that this definition could not be extended | to cover workers in the field of art, After. his stay as a visitor expired, he was granted a six-months' exten- sion and after returning to London last March was given another exten- sion of six months this year. The second period of grace, rarely granted to visitors, expires shortly, Hendy, a graduate of Oxford, will visit European art centres in the in- terest of the local institution, A national aeronautical associa. tion has been formed in Panama to promote aviation, A news attachment for telephone receivers enables a 'person to listen with both ears.

Throughout the day, there was a steady stream of people to the showrooms, and there were many expressions of approval of the beau- tiful appearance of the 1931 Chev- rolet car, The models shown were of a very attractive type, particular attention heing paid by many visitors to the wire wheels which are now stand- ard for all Chevrolet models, and to the beautiful lines of the radl ator design, The colorings were also | much admired, and there are indi- {cations of a lively interest this year {in the latest models of the Cheyro- let Six, particularly in view of the lrastie price reductions which have een mada In all models, The new ('hevrolet Six is still on display in Lhe Oshawa, Jowmanville and Whitby showrooms of the Ontario Sales, Limited, PROVIDE WORK Construction of Huge Cun- arder Will Employ Thousands of Workmen Messrs, great Jan John and Company, Clyde- bank shipbuilding firm, are actively going ahead with construction of the giant new liner for the Cunard Com pany, to cost about $30,000,000, The contract was signed recently after the steamship company was assured that the Southern Railway would build at Southampton a graving dock able to accommodate the mammoth liner, The British Government is taking a por tion of the vast amount of insurance necessary 300,000 Affected The building of the 60,000 ton an immediate effect on more than 300,000 workmen in many trades throughout the world, points it the. Manchester Guardian's spe- vial correspondent, Almost every in. dustry in this country will be able to employ more men during the two or three years which will be occupied in building and furnishing the largest hip in the world Marble will be imported from Italy and Norway to be shaped into decora- tive pillars, floors, swimming baths, ordinary baths, and lamp fittings Something like 300,000 pieces of sil- perware and 60,000 pieces of cutlery will be required, and there will be more than 200,000 pieces of earthen- ware, china, glass, and other vessels, Miles of Cables The largest order will probably be given to the electricity industry, and something libe 100 miles of cables will be threaded through the vessel, The pentilation system, run by electric power, will be very elaborate and every cabin will pe so fitted with ven tilation power that filtered air, warm medium, or icecold can be turned on Lond Ves- | at a moment's notice, There wil be rooms in the Adams style, Chippendale, Louis © XVIth, Renaissance, and Georgian, and the furniture will be original in almost every respect, 20 Wireless Operators About 20 wircless operators using separate wireless installations will also be used to deal with messages, Shops will also be propided on the promenade decks, and the tailoring industry will be called in to provide uniforms for the crew of 1,200, It is computed that at least $15,- 000,000 will be distributed for the building of the ship among the trades of the world, The other $15,000,000 will be wanted for the b®lding of the hull. The keel plates have al- ready been laid and some of the hull plates save been cut and are now waiting to be pieced together, Now that the building of one ship has at last been definitely decided upon, the directors of the Cunard Line will doubtless consider whether a contract for the construction of a second ship shall be given out. Whe- ther the second ship will be a sister vessel has not yet been announced, but the Cunard Company have on previous occasions favored the build- ing of sister ships. There is much economy in this method as articles can ewsily be duplicated, Both New- castle and Birkenhead have urged their claims, and there is much, un- 'employmnet among shipyard workers in both places, TORONTO LIVESTOCK Toronto, Jan, 6.-Cattle trade opened slowly with the early prices about steady, Butcher cattle sold at about §6.00 to $7.35, with heavy steers up to $7.35, .
