There had been no row; the young man simply administered the punishment he considered adequate to his friend because she failed to keep a date with him. But the magistrate decided otherwise and fined him $20. Newcastle, N.B., Oct. 8.--Clarence Reid, 64 years old, a prominent New York real estate man, was fatally shot when mistaken for a bear by one of a party of New York sportsmen with him when he entered the New Brunswick woods for hunting yesterday. Companions, who returned with the body, refused to say anything about the fatality. The Hastings Star says: Messrs. James Cameron, Arthur Moore and Dave McQuestion returned on Monday of this week from the West. These young fellows left on the Harvesters' Excursion about six weeks ago and had no trouble in securing plenty of work, in fact they claim work is very plentiful out there for those who want to work. The many press reports of the British Miners not being able to secure work is untrue according to these young men as they heard them offered $6.00 per day for farm work and $6.00 per day for Telephone construction work which they refused. HALDIMAND COUNCIL Haldimand township council met i COUNTIES ROAD WORK The Counties Road Commission has purchased about 800 yards of snow fence which is to be placed at sections of the roads which drift with snow during the winter time. This is the first time the road commission has purchased road fence for this purpose, and it is expected that roads which have been blocked during the past winters wil be open for traffic this winter. The commission has done considerable permanent road building this season, two miles of concrete road having been constructed in Bow-mlanville, two miles of amesite in Mil-Ibrook; one mile of amesite in Hastings, and three miles of Standardite in Campbellford. Next Season there wil' be two miles of concrete laid on Ontario and Division Streets, in Cobourg; two miles of concrete in Port Hope; one mile of concrete each in Brighton, Newcastle and Coiborne, which will complete the paving of Counties road extensions in all the towns and villages in the Counties. The road work for the season iii near-ing an end, but before snow falls it is expected that six miles of the road between Cobourg and Gore's Landing will be finished with crushed gravel, 2 miles of this already having been dene. One mile of construction has been done on'the Brighton-Campbell-ford road, and five steel bridges put in, one each at Millbrook, Canton, Kendal, on the Shelter Valley road and on the Ops-Manvers boundary. One concrete bridge has been constructed at Plainville, and a half mile done at Canton, where lad turn in the road. The Hastings-Warkworth road has also been gravelled. The concrete pavement costs the Counties about $25,000 a mile. This season the commission has purchased a new stone crusher and four new trucks.--Sentinel Star. Port Hope, Oct. 6.--Clive V.

RMathby, representative of the British Student Movement, who is at present visiting Toronto, spoke a very timely word to students of the University of Toronto on Sunday evening, when he warned them against "spurning their birthright" of Sunday ebservanee. Of the manner in which the Sunday of another generation was spent he said: "You may like it or not, but the quiet and the change prevented the nervous breakdowns that intellectual people now have.-' Dr. Mathby is right in what he says. But it is not alone the "intelligentsia"! of the world who are suffering from ! "nerves" induced by the mad rush and 1 scraimible of modern life and the neglect of the day of rest. Every grade of society and everv walk of life is feeling the effect of Sunday desecration in neurotic conditions and diseases of the heart. It was the Lord of all life who said that the Sabbath was made for man. There was no error in the Divine economy in'setting aside one day of rest for the human race, and men and women of any age only disregard the wise piovision at peril to their physical welLbeing, to say nothing of the effect produced on the mental and moral, ant" spiritual life. Whatever faults may be attributed to the "old-fashioned" Sunday, at least it secured for most people a season of rest for weary bodies "and tired minds from the dis- traction of things that occupied their attention for six days in the week. With the coming of the motor car and the multiplying of modern inventions the real object of Sunday is rapidly being lost sight of. It has become more a holiday than a "holy day;" a day of strenuous activity and rushing hither and yon instead of a season of rest and refreshment. The effects are all too manifest upon the life of the race. A return to.the. quiet manner of Sunday observance of another generation without its austerities would be of in-alculable value to the race, it is still true Jftat A Sunday well spent brings a week of content And peace for the work of the But a Sunday profaned, whatever is gained, certain forerunner of sorrow, THE ABUSE OF LEISURE London Daily Telegraph: The greatest social danger confronting us to-day is the growth of a vast multitude of people in all classes of society with no skill they can exercise either for their own enjoyment or other people's benefit, but with plenty of leisure at their disposal and with plenty of money in their pockets for the purchase of ready-made pleasures-.
