ineas the agreement between ottawa and washington by which american federal officers may be allowed on the export docks along the canadian border is a neighborly move in helping a nation that has made the sale of intoxicants illegal there are those of course who think no such assistance should be given neighbor but if you hud a child whom you had told that there was something he must not do and the child committed the act he had been warned not to do and owing to the agility of youth and your rheu mutism he escaped to your neighbors yard before he was caught to be reprimanded and when you went ti get the bud child your neighbor ordered you off the property and the little imp stood there knowing you couldn t touch him and made faces at you and your neighbor also smiled if that were the case just what would you do with your offspring and just what would you think of your neighbors neigh borliness and common sense after nil nations are just a lot of people living beside each other with a
