penalty of violation of this law is fixed ut 5oaq0 or ninety day in jail or both at tho discretion of the court just such a law as this in canada would be most desirable your language through the telephone an exchange states that tho first prosecution under the telephone act in ruiscll county took place last week before magistrate prascr when a farmer from embrun appeared charged with using unseemly language over the phone lie was found guilty and hoed it may not be generally known but it is not allowed by law to use profane or obscene language over tho p and penalties are provided for breaches of the act this should serve as a warning to others when in the heat of an aru ment over the phone to censor their words as any one may register n complaint nnd it is easier to lay less than

credited back on tax bills- if the trader remains in business in the town for one year or more orange ville has a similar by law although the amount of the license feo is lower it is wise legislation designed to give tho legitimate tax paying business man a reasonable measure of protection against tho trail stents who may bo hero to day and away to morrow acton sadly needs just such a by law tho present transient traders license is not effective it would bo 4 desirable thing for our council to secure a copy of tho onllia by law and enact a new by law on similar lines a modified license feo might be thought to bo equally effective but the by law should be so framed that our business people will be properly protected against non taxpaymg transient traders revision of the dominion hanking- act in the expectation that the dominion banking act will come up for revision at tho next session of parliament tho canadian manufacturers associa tion is inviting its members to submit their views on and criticisms of the act in its present form the first dominion bank act was passed in 1808 it was revised in 1871 and thero have been four subsequent revisions at intervals of about ten years as tho act stands therefore it is tho outcome of several re visions to meet tho growth of the country and its changing requirements british manufacturers have taken exception to the section of the act which pro vides for making advances by banks to customers on goods owned by and then in tho possession of tho customer including substituted goods the property of the borrower there are strong arguments both for and against tho section and it will doubtless be ono of tho chief points of debate when the act comes up in parliament i inohibitioirand religion work together that there will be

prohibitum and religion should go baud in hand clean fall fain are wanted the key note of the discussion at the convention of tho international association of i airs and loo po at toronto last wee by both canadian and united states speakers was clean i airs the spirit of the convention was not to tolerate any show which permitted gambling of any kind with or without apparatus or any behind the curtain shows which savored of obscene or suggestive exhibitions tha purpose of the fairs is not to make money but to render service and anything of an undesirable character should be eliminated from all fairs encouraging iractlcal kducation the state of wisconsin is alive to the advantage of encouraging practical education it makes generous offer to men in trade and technical occupa tious who desire to fit themselves to become teachers of their selected vocations the state gives scholar ships of fifty dollars a month during the period these men arc taking their course the more experienced

well be proud to take part in such a movement guelph herald reeve barber of acton has the somewhat unique distinction of being the first member elected for the county council or 1023 this is owing to
