WEST TO KINGSVILLE , Prospective shortage of crude oil will not affect propane gas production for a year or more. The Dominion company has signed a contract with a Montreal firm for 1,200,000 gallons of liquid propane. The company has suf- ficient on hand to fill the order. No solution to the heating prob- lem' in Hamilton has been found as yet, Mr. Crozier said, and "a very serious situation" is expect- ed in that city this winter.

The prisoner was on trial for stealing ducks. His counsel ad- dressed the jury at great length, pointing out, firstly, that it had not been proved conclusively that the prosecutor had lost any ducksj secondly, that the ducks found in the prisoner's cottage were not those of the prosecutor; thirdly, that the prisoner had established an absolute alibi. Just as the judge began to- sum up, the prisoner iuterposed and asked if he might say some- thing. As an indulgence, this was per- _ mitted. "All T want to say," remarked the prisoner, "is that I wish I'd never seen the darned ducks."
