PRISON AND THE ARMY with h desire to play fiir and square, get out and yell yourself lioar.se for tlio home team, and stir tliiugs up. Good uleau spoil is worthy of every encouiagcmrut. And for the old rheumatic bones it is luucli easier to eutei into the sports from the side line thau to get into the midst of them yourself. Wherever you live give the boys a boost, and every time you do it will take years off your feelings, and a man is only as old as he feels. BASEBALL NOTES The Flesliertun liaBcba'l leaiu tuuk a i trip to Rock Mills on Tuesday evcninji of last week and played ii friendly game with a teuiii from that district, coming out on I lie long end of a 7 (> score. Good stoHdy pitchin;; by McAuley and some sensational flcldmj; saved the game for FIcsliertoii and added another victory to their list. The boys are playing good ball and cull give the best of them a tidy argument. The lirst three innings look- ed like a walkover for Rock Mills, the score at the end oF that period being 4 0. After that the Flesherton boys ^ol busy and Umbasted the oS'eiingH of two pitchers to nil comers. .1. Bowler iniide a leiy etiicient referee and his work was satiiifactf'ry to all. A return )(»nie ill be played here en Thursday eveninc, called at 5.:<0 p. in. •Bob" Cook, tbe notorious Orange ville law breaker, is out of jail again. He is OHt of it ofWcially, and stands a fair chance of never going back again, if he behaves himself. With four of his seven years' jail term fltill to serve, he has been released on condition tlinl he join the army for active service. Anything is better than life in jail, And Bob was willing to serve. The Advance would not cast reflections on his patriotism, however, by imply- ing that he has joined the colors racielv to escape the jail sentence Bob would probably have joined had he been enjoying his liberty. The only difference between many ut !i^nd the man who is in jail is that he has been caught with the goods on, vihile we have notâ€" and being caught is au unpardonable offence. iJob was caught. The action of the punitive authori- ties in permitlin<,' this criminal to leave jail will not please certain in- dividuals whose religion calls for "an €ye for an eye and a tooth foi a tooth," but it will appeal to those who have human sympathy in their breasts. The very characteristics which led Bob Cook to steal his sheep and to break all the odd laws he could find lying around wailing. l3 be broken would lead him to perform the deeds which have distinguished Canadians in Flanders during the past few months. Oivcu the discipline of the army to which he will have to bow, and also given the opportunity to take risks, to mix in excitement with hon- or, a^d withal, to work jtr some of tbe excess of spirits which have work- «d his downfall in polite society, Hob may come out of the European brawl the better for it â€" if Le be so fortunate as to come out at all. There is nn sense in our system of imprisonment within four walls, for reforming prisoners. It is a splendid plan of punishment, but is . far from reformative in iti effejt. The army will do more by fjr to put a man who is down back onto his feet again, than will a prison term. There are other "Bob.'." who could be given a chance lo make gotd again if there was any person to take an interest in their case. Doubtless there could he a lot of twaddle written and spoken about the "disgraofa" of having our country defended by criminals, and tbe diffi- culty which would follow the putting of a criminal alongside the young man from a good home â€" but as we said at the beginning, the criminal is only tbe mau who ha^ been caught. If he is a lough case, nine times out of ten it is because ho is a victim of the system. lu any event, there is a criminars viewpoint as well as the other obaps. Sergt.

Novelties in Summer Footwear for Ladies Highest Price for Butter and Eggs Burgulars in Grand Valley On Tliui.sddy morning when I.iaughlin Sinclair's store was upened it wa.M ijuite appircnt that Eome person had been around since closing time the evening be- fore, about eleven o'clock. A glass case containing abetter line of chocolates was empty, banana skins on the floor, evidenc- ed a leisurely feast while a missing ipian- lity of tubaccj is suggestive of happy reveries for the midnight visitors for some moons tu come. The dejd ki s no doubt done by some (lerson with a fairly accurate knowledge of iliu premises. Taking a railway spike from the C. P. II. they pried open a window saah at the rear of the sicre, entering a slock room. From this they pulled i cardboard ifT a broken window getting access to the cellarway, and Iroin there to the store. In going out the robbers opened the door leading from the store to the rear. Not ] .satmtied with the plunder here, the ' visitois curried oft' a C!ove!aud bicycle be- longing to Wm. Buchanan, C. P.
