the ontario government to change tho act in this regard thi5washe law at one time and it seemed rather anomalous to have dual representation with a member of tho council taking part in passing resolutions for payment of monies to the school board of which he was at the same time a member roman catholics for prohibition tho catholic total abstinence union in its fifty- third annual- convention held recently in chicago adopted resolutions again endorsing the eighteenth amendment and tho volstead act calling for rigid enforcement of tho prohibition law and making an tppeal that the flag be kept stainless and unsullied the resolution read in part because the volstead act is violated is no reason for its repeal what laws are not violated shall we repeal the lav against bribery against the adulteration of food and drink against adultery against the social evil against ob scene publications because jhey arc infringed prohibition protects the industrious against the waste of tho dissipated the innocent against thq crimes of tho guilty the home against tho merciless hand that would destroy it and generations unborn from tho inheritance of weakness poverty and vice which is ready to overwhelm them this call is just as neces- aary and insistent and reasonable to the people of ontario to stand by prohibition in this province canadas patriotism and public financial effort collycrs news bureau of chicago publishes the following compliment to canada by governor parker of louisiana the patriotism of tho canadian people is splendidly shown by tho manner in which they have subscribed to the loans of their country paying themselves tho interest and promptly taking care of their obligations the example of canada and great britainishould be an inspiration to the foreign coun tries not to avoid honest obligations but to endeavor on common sense lines to soamortire them that they would be certain of payment within a reasonable time signed jno m parker governor canadas natural resources a wealth of information on canadas natural re sources developed industries and commercial growth has been assembled in canada natural resources and commerce a small compact volume issued by the natural resources intelligence service depart ment of the interior this is not a government blue- book but an attractive publication compiled especial ly for the business man it gives a condensed but thorough survey of canadas varied resources and of tho broad features they impart to the commerce of the dominion by their limitations as well as by their diversity and abundance it gives in short a birds- eyo view of can adits physical assets developed and latent effectitenesfl of friendly relations between great britain and the united states the first cxpressioq from premier king upon landing at halifax was momentous and important in its solution of world peace its problems and difficulties said the premier tho old world needs the assistance of the new world which should offer helpful cooperation as the opportunity presents it self in matters which are not without their effect upon present stability fend peace of tho world amid uncertainty and insecurity twogreaipolitical enti ties the british empire and the united states whose unity strength and stability made them all powerful to agencies of peace and progress in the world stood qttt hi striking contrast to tho rest of political society they had ideals of human justice and human liberty they understood government by opinion and they looked to reason rather than to force in making right prevail tho most hopeful of all signs on the worlds horizon today is cordiality of tho relationship that at presentexists between these two peoples and canada t can play no more helpful part in tho world affairs than in lending her effort whenever and as often as the opportunity permits to maintain this relationship of goodwill and frendly cooperation actons hydro system debt free it is very gratifying to learn that actons hydro system is free of debt and has a place on tho honor roll the hydro bulletin says it is a questionable compliment to speak of a municipality as having no debt the statistics show some such curiosities but on investigation it is usually found that their freedom from debt is largely due t6 tho same reason that the indians who possessed this fair land had no debt because they have but few of tho modern conveni ences such as good roads permanent bridges drain age modern schools public buildings and rural tele phones which more progressive municipalities con sider essential with this thought in view it is re freshing to fird in the annua report of tho hydro- electrlc commission of ontario a list of eighteen hydro municipalities in which tho quick assets be longing to tho hydro utility such as cash securities book accounts and stores exceed in value the total liabilities including debenture debt in other words if these municipalities could call in their unmatured debentures issued on account of hydro they have sufficient to pay off the debt and still have a working capital these municipalities are acton barrio baden beachville bothwoll

with the action of magistrates clark kcwson and govcr in dealing with tho hold up men brought before them last week at ortllia when they were sentenced not only to an extended term in prison but to ten lashes each presumably with tho cato ninetails the magistrates made it plain that the sentences were imposed to help in putting an end to tho wave of crime as it was in tho days of tiiypin and duval and their ilk passing over ontario there will be found today nothing more effective as a deterrent than the cat- the cowardly scoundrels who lay in wait for unarmed wayfarers and who are prepared to do murder if necessary can have no claim even on sentimentalists to whom this form of punishment is abhorrent the only effective way found for its repression being the lash which quickly
