The system is not new, but to date it has been rarely attempted in the province. A carload of so-called temperance beer is shipped, and cOncealed cleverly in the shipment will appear several kegs of liquor over proof. The seizure of a carload of this description at En- uglehart is providing a ‘court case. r ‘1'?

Blackwell recently heard of a large shipment of Cobalt beer going through to a man named Preston, at Timmins, which is a non-license district, and held it up for analysis.

Liquor for these districts must not contain more than 2 1-2 per cent., so the case goes before the magistrate and the whole consignment will be confiscat- received all the appreciation that has been due them in the past, but their patriotic and onerous action in do- nating this collection of pictures for the benefit of the troops and their dependents will remain in the mem- ory of many who are unable to take a warm interest in the mysteries of " Patriotic Artfsts‘. Excellent results. have been obtain- ed from the national patriotic exhibi- tion of pictures donated for the pur- pose by Canadian artists, the pro- ceeds of the sale of these having been offered for the benefit of the various war funds. The pictures, which were first shown in Toronto, have been on View in Winnipeg, Halifax, St. John, Quebec, Montreal, Ottawa and else- where, and will return to Toronto this month. The bids made for the pictures so far amount to $6,200 and this will be largely supplemented. It is believed that the stimulation of interest in Canadian art, due to the loyal action of the artists concerned, will have a direct bearing on the artistic taste of the nation. It is one of the advan- tages of the war that different classes of the people are learning to know each other. better and to un- derstand that a common national spirit binds thorn together.
