Ottawa, Nov. 6.â€"â€"In setting up the machinery for the operation of the Military Service Act. special care has been taken to select only ofl‘i- cials of the most trustworthy char- acter. In the Operation of the Act. attempts at bribery are always pos- sible, in Canada no less than in oth- er countries. Attempt to bribe any member of anexemption tribunal or medical board, or a military representative, means a term of imprisonment of not less than one year and not more than five years. It will he very difficult for anyone so in- clined to set aside the regulations of the Military Service Act by cor- ruption. Nat, all of the Iiirmmmtiom made in guard against melity um! uni’aimwss in the iperation of the Act can be made public, but it, may be anmmnced that attompis to bribe. officials, in View of tho check and smu'ér'visions to be innumed, will be an exceedingly hazardmm business. “Why don’t you give your dime to missions?” said the minister, who was calling.

V” “Pocketing the Sugar.” Diners-out in London are regularly engaged just now in a practice which popularly is known as “pocketing the sugar.” The idea is to lay up a sup- ply of sweetening for a day when it may be harder to obtain or, on the part of non-sugar eating individuals, for friends who like more than they are allowed. The custom is practiced all over the city and in all classes of places Where tea and food are served. German submarines lately seem to have been especially active against ships that happened to be carrying sugar, with the result that, while there is enough to go around, the supplies for the distant future are none too large. Tea and cofiee are served with just the allowed weight of sugar, usually set alongside the cups in separate containers and us- ually consisting of halves or thirds of lumps. It is these pieces of lumps that most often are seen disappearing into the gold. silver, and leather handbags of the women and the waistcoat pockets of the men. Sugar served for berries or other food is hard to pocket. Nearly al- ways it is of the crude variety and very‘sticky; but collectors of sugar even carry off this kind with them; having a convenient envelope or a little cloth bag ready for it. Lump sugar is much more papillar, however, and in the mesh bags of women in London’s streets and hotels the white\cubes, or pieces of them, can be seen mingling with keys, treasury notes, odd change, powder puffs, and other things. A new arrival in London who does not take sugar in his or her tea is sure quickly to be asked to “save up” for some friend with a so-called sweet tooth.
