THURSTON, - Kditor «)IR G.\MK DEPARTMKNT Thy Department of ("lunie and Fish- eries in Toronto has refused respons- ibility for dcpradations by their pro- tected bird and animal life. They claim timt it would not be "desir- able" to assume responsibility. Just why not desirable is not ex- pluiiied. In the case of the Alliston floriet who sufT'.Ted heavy lo^s by a deer jumping through his greenhouse the jjcntleman is advi«ed to tcel after the owner of the dofcs which chased the deer. We claim that it is not the duty of the man who suffered loss to >rct in touch with the man or men who ownsd the doj^s. There is a law pro- hibitiufr dogs from running deer out of season and in certain prohibited localities. In case of infraction it is the duty of the Department to pet after the jruilly ones, through their officers appointed for the purpose. Yet in this case the private owner is solemnly advised to (^et out and do his own detective •vork! The De- partment is ton indolent or too indif- ferent to interest itself in minor mat- ters of this nature. It prol)ably |ire- fers to spend it.« time and money raisin); pheasants for the farmers to feed in winter time as some of them have been doing in this vicinity. A few years ago a colony of bea- ver caused considtrable damage near Flesherton by flooding lands. The Department would do nothing, so private partie.i made a clean-up and incidentally made a good profit on the tarnsaction. But in doin^ so they had to transgress the law. The tran.sgressor was never traced to his lair. In that case it was the duty of the Department to remove the otfend- ing colony and not leav; it for pri- vate enterprise to destroy them â€" at a profit. In another case a deer brolce its leg and was killed and dressed by a far- mer to put it out of its misery. Tlie Department was notified that the car- case was at their disposal, but they actually left the carcase hanging in the farmer's barn until it rotted. rf things have been going on all 6ver the province as they have in this vicinity, we have a dawning im- pression that some sort of a clean-up should be made in our Department of jGame and Fisheries. quite proud of her little charge, and every member of I'arlianient will probably pet and i)raise the young lady until there will be danger of turning her head. Still, Maxine has a pretty level head and is not likely to fall very far for the poor flatterer.s at Ottav.-a. .She will have the time of her young life, and it will bo a visit to l)e remembered and talked about to her grandchildren in after years. • * * • The Toornto Star says the Chats- worth weather prophet was partly right during 1921. Well, he fore- casts his weather by the stars, so it is absolutely the correct thing for the Toronto luminary to insist on his rights. .Still, we have an idea that any ambitious man could sit down and make a schedule of the weather for a couple of veal's ahead that would bo "partly right." Neil Sinclair Writes Mr. Neil Sinclair, brother of Mrs. McKinnon of town, writes The Ad- vance from Turin, Altn., of recent date, as icdlows: â€" "I have read letters in Tl;o Ad- vance fros Saskatchewan and Idaho, telling about the crops, but I am going to tell you about the wheal I pool, which I belong to. I don't j know what to make of it yet. I sent in two loads of wheat â€" one had 6t> bushels, the other GI) bushels and they I graded No. T>. This wagon holds Si" j bushels. We loaded one of the wag- I ons again as near as possible to the ; other, and out of the same bin, and I took it to another man handling pool I wheat, whog raded it No. .5 and gave 1 credit for iU bushels on the same wagon that had drawn 69 bushels be- fore. I thcmght he had made a mistake, but he did not. Now, Mr. Editor, my opinion is that .so long as the wheat pool i)uts their wheal through local elevators it will not be satisfactory to the farnl- ers, for thet? men want rakeolf and storage besides. This may be putt- ing it strong, but 20 bushels in two loads is good proof that there is J something wrong with the scales or I with their heads. ! I never advised anyone to come to I .Alberta or stay away, but I will say j that a man with a good home in Ont- I ario is foolish to move to any new 'counti'y. Alberta has its drawbacks ' the same as Ontario had in early j days, l)ut it will not be many years I until it will be one of the finest countries in the world. That is say- I ing a lot but I mean it." New Blacksmith Shop Started By E. Henry THE MARRIAGE VOW The decisions of the Church England House of Clergy, sitting at Westminster, have been causing a sensation throughout England. It was proposed that the question put to the bride in the marriage cere- mony, "Wilt thou obey and serve him?" should be replaced by "Wilt thou love him and comfort him?" The Dean of Lincoln asked, "Is this word 'obey' of the slightest use?" There were many kinds of wives, he added. There was the wife who was provoked by the very existence of the word to counteract it. There was also the wife who outwitted it even- tually. The form of words in the marriage contract was made for both parties the same as that now said by the bride, with the exception that the word "serve" is to be used instead of "obey. The Reverent Court further agreed that in the form of words ac- companying the giving of the ring the preface, "With my body I thee honour" should take the place of "With all my good.s I thee endow." The substitution of "sei-ve" for "obey" in the declaration does not appear to be a very happy idea, inas- much as the word is derived from the Latin "servus": â€" a slave. Mr. Everett Henry has purchased a double lot from the Sproule estate , I on Peter Street, and is now busy er- ecting a blacksmith shop thor.:on. He expects to have the building ready for business inside of two weeks and a gang of men was started on it on Monday morning. He has engaged a blacksmith to do the mechanical work, in the person of Mr. Richard Moody who is stated to be a first- class mechanic. We wish Everett success in his new venture.

T', ; Flesherton 8, Dundalk 3 Flesherton hockey t;'am won its fii'sl game of the season on the local rink on Wednesday night of last week when they ou.''icored th? Dund^Wc sextette 8-3. The game was fast the first period, but Flesherton had the better of the play at all times, mark- ing u|i four goals the first period and blanking the visitors. R. Boyd start- ed the scoring by a nice shot and in <iuick succession C. PtlcTavish, Ken Boyd and S. McTavish talliid, three of the goals being batted in on re- bounds. The local forwards got right in on the goal time after time, but wore not able to add to their count. The second period Dundalk came back sfi-onger and Stevenson in goal play angles and did good work to keep the number goals down. The Flesh rton forward line was working nkcly and showd some nice team play. It is likely that the next game will be with Mar :dale although the man- agemnt is tiying to make arrange- ments with Durham to visit us.
