UKE'S ANGLICAN titled, '"What about work for| of the accident will take place.i Come and have a good supper|sent 50c to the funds. It must memory of our dear grand CHURCH the winter?"' The author of this (to me un- known) tried to make the point, that while direct relief, might be a god send in some cases to stranded families, and unfortun- ate people, the principle was wrong. That it was undesirable to introduce this semblance of dole, that it was preferable to find work, whereby men could support their families with in- dependence and self-respect. The article concluded, that surely some public work could be done, and the inference was plain, that this concerned both Town and Country. I leave this with you for the moment. * ¥ Premier John Bracken of Mani- toba, is said to have confessed that he is stumped by the prob- lem of deficits, because anything he might suggest to meet them, would be opposed by large groups of people, and in an address in Winnipeg, he asked several ques- tions of his audience. "Would you reduce the wuni- "versity grant?" "Would you lower mother's allowances?' "Would you reduce grants to schools?' "Would you cut down grants to hospitals?"' "Would you reduce salaries?" ® 0% "Would you put on more taxes?" "Would you repudiate your debt or interest payments?"' This is John Bracken of Mani- toba speaking for his Govern- ment, presumably with the back- ing of his Cabinet. * * * Returning to the Town of Dryden, it is conceivable that the Mayor, backed by his Coun- cil, might question you thusly: '"Are those of you who have paid taxes, and those of you, paying interest, because you have not paid your taxes, prepared} for any measure of public works, that will assume one hundred per cent. of the cost of relief, because unassisted by Govern. ment; or do you prefer to take advantage of the Fédéral and Provincial offer to let you off|1 with paying only twenty per cent. of said relief; they paying the rest? Under the Unemployment Re- lief Act, this is about how the Mayor would have to talk to you. What would be your an- swer ? - 1 do agree with the Sy of the article, I quoted, because I think he or she is right. Public Works are "better than Dole! ; 1 o* = Therefore, would. advocate this: There are Wo main necessities in the Town of Dryden, perhaps three, and I name thew in their order. A war memorial in the form of a Library and comfort rest room for women and children Solid but not pretentious, digni- fied, but not too large. Conceiv- ably built of stone, because of its greater possibilities for local labour. Anyhow a building, that per- haps belatedly would remind ourselves, our children and their children of 1914-1918.

Cooke, K.C., will lock after the inv restigation on the part of the crown. * * *® Myers Harris was laid to rest Saturday afternoon, when hun- dreds of Kenora citizens assem- bled at St. Alban's pro-cathedral to pay their last respects to one who had been a citizen for so many years. Railway men were present in large numbers, and full Masonic honours were paid. Thomas O'Flaherty was buried Monday at 9 o'clock, and John Patterson at 2.30 p.m: Monday. The third vietim of the rail- road tragedy of Thursday, Oec- tober 20th, near Dyment Ont. when a freight engineer and two trainmen were hurled from their locomotive by an explosion, John Patterson, head-end brake- man, died in the local hospital last Saturday morning. He is survived by a wife and four children. Kenora now mourns the death of three residents -- Engineer Myer Harris, instantly killed af the time of the catastrophe: Thomas O'Flaherty, fireman, who died of injuries Friday; and John Patterson, who had fought against the effects of dreadful burns and fractures, died Sat- arday. At first his condition was reported as fair, but the severity of the many burns, broken bones and shock was greater than anticipated. Mr. Patterson was 50 years of age. He had lived in Kenora for some time. He leaves a wife and four children between the ages of ten and seventeen. The body was taken to Kenora for interment Sunday morning. Friday morning, Thomas O°- Flaherty, who was fireman on board the engine at the time of the blast, died in the local hos- pital of the frightful injuries he received in the accident.

All three possible of winter construetion, although naturally at greater cost. * * Well, there you have my idea, and I thank the writer of last week's article for giving it +o me. Is the Mayor, is the Couneil, are you going to do anything about it? The Mayors of Kenora Sioux .. Lookout are convinced, so I hear, of a joint deputation to Toronto, with work of somekind in mind, rath- er than dole, and somewhat | and a good time. * * Next Monday night at 7.30 the Children's Hallowe'en Party, un- der the management of the 1st and 2nd Company Girl Guides, will be held in the Pulp Mill * Hall. Everybody come and have a good time. There will be games, prizes and eats. The parade of the children in cos- tume to choose the prize win- ners will be at 8 o'clock sharp. Admission 15e.
