'l‘oâ€"day it challenges the hitherto undis- puted supremacy of Switzerland in the realm of winter sports. Who has not heard or read of St. Moritz. pride of the Swiss people and for long years the winter time Mecca of Europe? Canada has a score or! more of places where all that SH Morita can offer in the way of win-i ter sports is not only duplicated but surpassed. The tame of these is! spreading beyond the confines of! this continent to lands across the seas. No longer is the Dominion pictured as a land which hibernatos through a long and trying winter period. The truth regarding the invigorating and exhilarating win- ter climate'd this country, with its ioy giving and health imparting sports, is as great an advertisument tor Canada as the enthusiastic land- ations of the glories of its summer and early tall.

If the right kind of a man can be secured there is no reason why this town can’t be clean- ed up. We are concerned about the good name or the town and hate to have to listen to such yarns as this being “the easiest place in Ontario to get booze.” we know it isn’t as had as some others but there is enough of it going on to warrant a stop being put to it.

G.‘- Noble. first aid instructor on the Canadian Pa- cific railway, who for the past seven years has been ‘instructor on the eastern divisions, is in the city pre- paring to take charge of the whole of the western divisions, from Fort William to Vancouvl', and to or- ganize first aid classes among the employees of the railway company and instruct them in the emergency treatment of accidents. St. John, N.B.â€"The Canadian Pacific Railway has to Jan. 6th shipped more than two million bushels of grain more than during the corresponding period last year. This season’s shipments have al- ready totalled 4,987,l64 bushels as compared with 2,658,582 bushels on the same date last season. The out- look is for a continued heavy move- here have been officially informed that a measure of relief is to be granted them from the British in- come tax for the fiscal yeais 1919 and 1920 in respect of the company payment of the Canadian income tax. This is the first official word on the subject of. Canadian Pacific shares. By the Finance Act of 1920, however, all British subjects resident in overseas Dominions were granted for 1920, in some cases for 1919, and in the future, the right of reclaiming the British income tax as though actually resident in Brit- ain. This affected Canadians deriv- ing income from which‘the British income tax had been deducted. It is estimated that the amount saved by Canadians so situated, if they did not neglect to file tin/Jr «guns under the Act, would be over $1.000,- Gonden, -B.C.â€"-That the ytovin- cial government will commence work on the Golden-Leanehoil road early in the spring, is announced by J. A. Buckham, M.L.A. A survey will be made as soon as possible and the work will be done by contract. The cost is estimated at $234,000. That portion of the road to be constructed by the Parks branch of the Domin- ion Government will also be got under way this year, it_is stated.__ The completion of this road will create a large amount of tourist traffic through Golden, and will also afford a loop whereby local cars may travel to Calgary and points in Alix-rm, and return over the newly completed Banff-Winder- mere road to Golden, passing some of the most magnificent mountain scenery on the continent. 0tt..wa â€"â€" The “Ottawa Eevening Journal” has the following editorial which is good reading for automo- bile drivers all over the _cou_ntry: This is the season of the year when statistics begin to appear. Among them will be those dealing with automobile. accidents, and it will probably be found that the rail- way level crossin is still the most favored location or traffic mishaps of varying degrees of seriousness. This time of the year may also be a favorable one for considering the matter of accidents at railway crossing, especially in this locality. Ottawa has a number of railway crossings, although not more than the average Canadian city. Auto- mobile accidents frequently happen at these crossings, and they are usually caused through negligence on the part of car drivers. An obli- gation to use reasonable care rests upon all users of the highway, whether they walk, drive a wagon or drive a motor car. Most people do exercise that care, the more cau- tious ones even being wise enough to stop, look and listen. But there are others who do not. Official 'rec- ords of accidents at the railway crossings in Ottawa prove this be- yond doubt. There are actually on record cases where men have driven their cars into trains at a standstill on a crossing.___ A v v-'â€"â€"_ Here is an illuminating case. On December 18th an engine was going towards Bank street on the railway tracks with four cars and a crew. When approaching Booth street crossing the whistle was sounded and the bell was rung automatically. A motor car, to quote the official re- port, “coming at about 30 miles an hour attempted to cross in front of the engine. Brakeman Little, who was riding on the front footboard, gave the engineer the signal to stop and he applied the brakes in emer- gency. The automobile stopped rig'rt in the middle of the crossing and the engine came up against it and pushed it a few inches, leaving a small scratch on the car. The drivnr would not give his name, but drove off, remarking, ’Oh, to hâ€"â€"- with it.’ ” That is not all. Automo- bile accidents have happened on city crossings which are protected by watchmen or in other ways. From November 9 to 27, 1922, on the crossings at Booth (corner Britan- nia), Queen and Main streets, there were ten instances, four of which were on one way, of local car drivers disregarding stop signals-or getting on to the tracks with the gates down. To most persons this sort of reckL lessness is almost incomprehensible, tic reprisal measures. A driver who disregards a watchman’s signal Ode- serves the strongest condemnation. To prevent accidents, it 18 essential that motor-drivers shouldeo-operate with the railway offmials. The great majority may be depended upon to do this.
