There is none of us who have very much sympathy with the man who, simply because he gets tired of the everlasting grind in provitling for a home and family. gets rid of his obligations rl-__L -‘Qnfi by vanishing to some distant. pro- Vince or country. These fellows most certainly deserve the lash or something worse. But. what. of the man who is driv- en from his home by the tongue 01" a modern Xantippe. or where there seems. at‘ter possibly years of family scrapping. no relief from the continual disagreements? There. are no doubt thousands of cases where the husband is all that could be desired In a man, the same might be said of the woman; but. as a family they get along about as friendlike as two strange bulldogs. These are the cases where the admonition of the lash would not work. There are cases where a husband may desert his family without just cause. but these we think are in the great minority. Most family separations“ are the result of the ,_--_...,..~;- ni‘ “rank: 0 â€"--\.~ . sepuluuuua an, H... -v_.__- __ ‘ continued disagreements of weeks . or months, and may be caused by l the man. the woman. or, more often. both. There are some people who simply do not "fit in" with I each other. and if it is their mis- fortune to get linked up in mar- riage. trouble is the inevitable re- sult. Marriages. so say the preachers, are made in heaven. but after ob- serving some of them we are of the Opinion that a small number must be children of the devil with hell as the backyard playground. Luckily. however, the human race is born with a sense of humor. When friend wife gets mad and heaves the soup pot at the man she swore to "love, honor and obey". it is up to him to thank his stars it wasn‘t 3 Mills bomb, and let it go at that. ‘Nifey. on the other hand, if she has been un- fortunate enough to pick a human sponge or a lemon for a helpmate. should do likewise and thank the Lord she has only one of Him to get along with. The world is full of people who think their paths should be smoothed out. for them by someone else, but unless they are dumb fools altogether they will soon learn different and start on the grand and satisfying task of breaking their own pathway. _ _-:“ kncvn' “';‘h Whosoe'ver is affagd of sszym't- 17 UI'CULILLE 011m; V115. r..-__--__d.

' SLANDERING NORTHERN ONTARIO There are few people who take any delight out of slandering a neighboring country or town. and it is a relief to us to see the promptness With which. the Porcu- pine Advance of Timmins tOok up the cudgels in defence of the North country against the slanderous statements of Professor Urwick of Toronto University. There is little doubt that Professor tfrwick thought he was acting .111 the proper manner in making hisstate- ments, but the general public has little sympathy with the man who shoots _ofi' his opinions Without A’ ‘kn {‘9'an In thought he was acting in the proper manner in making his state- ments, but the geperal public has little cvmpathj mm .the mar} who Thursday, May 31, 1928 ICRRINH HI 'SBANDS 10 27 .28 21 vanc e uncertain, Professor Urwick of the Unwersuy of Toronto, who stated that the North Land was a very mama hump- mven over to ‘VXlld ed in an address by a W. ..... , - uncertain, Professor Urwick of the University of Toronto, who stated that the North Land was a very wicked place, given over to wild ' ' d gambling truthfully answered by saying “Not a word of truth to it!" This pro- fessor’s slander. however, can scarcely be responded to in these terms. So for as the impression left by his address is concerned. the charges might well be branded as foul calumny, but it needs more than a simple denial to ofi’set the ___l‘ nhnnnoc It iS than a Simple Uttulal w w--- -- effects of such char es. It is' much like the Port ope Guide’s charge that there was monstrous sacrifice of life in the entry into Mons o Armistice. Day. When the loss of only one life was proven, u' it was argued in reply that the charge was well-founded, because even one man's life should not be sacrificed. When the attention of the people of the North is specificâ€" ally directed to the matter, there is naturallv very general regret that there should be drunkenness. gambling or other evils-existing at all even in the smallest degree. At other times the people of the North do not give much thought to these matters because in this country law breaking and disorder have been reduced to a minimum. and the towns of the North compare} most favorably with other towns of similar size elsewhere. The North Land is not a land of plaster saints. land has no ambition to pose as such. But it. is eminently decent. lawâ€"abiding and orderly. and free from the evils that beset some mining countries. It is an absolute fact that there is no special drunk- enness in the North on pay days as the. Toronto professor suggests. There are no orgies and no open gambling dens. The North Land is just a little better than most, sec- tions of the country. and the only reason that at times it. has a series of police court cases is because the peeple are determined to keep it healthy and straight. To exagâ€" gerate. any evils or to lie about conditions is to make it more dif- ' to keep the general tone high. Professor [Trwick should lend his tremendous brain power and his lively imagination .to as- sisting his informants in this matter to a return to normal morals {and veracity. _______â€"-â€"â€"-â€"-_.
