General Victor Williams, Commis- sioner, Ontario Police, has Issued the following Interpretation of the law of Canada regarding raffles at bazaars, for religious or charitable objects, and Instructions to the police authorities. As there Is widespread misunder- standing regarding these matters It is well to note carefully what the law Is. General Williams says: t"In view of requests that come from time to time to this department from charitable organizations for permis- sion to hold raffloe, it seems necessary he has been iH for a long time. \V'e " "'nlad^'^Marcift whnl the word i sistin * two or **** dr I>s each ent for you as > soon as we knew it fain ^" a Mttle not* of terror in her tincture of benzoin and carbolic acid anything dreadful" was perious " I voice ' "Ltrrd Rosslaer dead!"
