PAGE 2 WOODSTOCKâ€"Cpl. Russel Henry Christensen, 2], while with the Algon- quin Regiment in Belgium. was taken prisoner September 17. The young sol- dier was on the continent since early in July. Friday, November 24, Cpl. Christensen was heard over short wave in a message from a German prison camp stating that he had been wounded but was now well. He re- quested letters as he was lonely. Sym- pathetic listeners from near and dis- tant points have written his relatives, all telling the same story. This is the first word of him since official word was received late in September that he was missing on September 17. He is the son of Henry Christensen of Plattsville, and the late Mrs. Chris- tensen. TILBURY,â€"â€"James J. Hickey, 61, of Detroit, suffered bruised ribs and shock Saturday when the automobile he was driving overturned on the Mid- dle road four miles west of Merlin and travelled more than 100 feet on its top. Hickey, treated at the office of Dr. Grant Berry and then taken to St. Joseph’s Hospital, Chatham, for X- ray examination, told police he was driving east and took to the ditch to avoid a westbound car attempting to pass a parked trailer.

SARNIA,-~Roy Quinn, of Penrose street, was fined $10 and costs in magistrates couit Saturday, when i found guilty of common assault on his :wife, Erie Quinn. Evidence given by 1Mrs. Quinn was to the effect that on f Monday evening, during a quarrel, she t threw a knife at her husband who was f using abusive and profane language Ito her.She also told him to get out of rthe house. When he left the house !she followed him to close the door, and he struck her giving her a black eye. To Will A. Donohue, defence counsel, she admitted that the quarrel arose out of her association with an- other man with whom she had been to Detroit over the week-end, and that later in the evening the police had to be called to settle a dispute between her husband and the third party. At that time Constable Duf- field warned the man to keep away‘ from the house of the husband objec- ted to his presence. Mrs. Quinn’s mo- ther gave corroborative evidence and raised a laugh by suggesting it should have been a hammer thrown at the husband rather than a knife. H. M. Taylor, appearing for Mrs. Quinn, ob- 'jected to certain questions put in cross-examination, but Mr. Donahue said he was anxious to develop the facts since he understood further pro- ceedings under the Deserted Wives and Children’s Act might be instituted by Mrs. Quinn. I I is 7,000, the total take from the two ports is in excess of 4 mililon eggs. Spawn is taken aboard the tug by lGovernment-paid men. Only live fish ,are used. and after killing the fish ‘the man in charge of operations re- moves first the milk from the male fish and then the spawn from the fe- male. The spawn is removed by pres- sure on the belly of the fish. By the time the gatherer reaches shore the spawn that. is not fertilized has turned white. All of the good eggs are a deep cream in colour. Meaford spawn is shipped to Wiarton Hatchery and by spring it has hatched and during the summer of next year will be distribu- ted to the various lakes. Mr. Clock in- tends that the method o'f hatching the eggs in a hatchery is superior to thel natural state, as today carp and so‘ many scavenger fish the spawn is soon gobbled up. I WINDSOR,â€"Seven men were ar- rested by Windsor police over the week-end as alleged safe-crackers, house-breakers and gasoline thieves.. Maurice Bourdeau, alias Maurice Hen- derson, 36, of no fixed address, was captured by Constable Arnold Burdon, who heard a noise inside Nessel’s dry goods store, 1736 Wyandotte street east, shortly before 5.30 a.m. Sunday. Constable Burdon was making the rounds of his beat at the time. He ran to the rear of the building, saw a man clamber out of the skylight and run across the roof, climb part way down and then leap. The fellow apparently hurt his ankle in the leap and Con- stable Burton was there to grab him. On his person were found an envel- ope containing 27 cents, belonging to Miss Esther Applebaum, a clerk in the store, two pairs of lady's hose, a new wallet and a pair of eyeglasses. Near the skylight police found two other pairs of lady’s hose. Officers summon- ed to the scene found the office safe smashed open and the back torn off the cash register. Near the safe they found a wrecking bar, two hand axes, two machinist’s hammers, a hacksaw, a keyhole saw, and a chisel. MEAFORD,â€"-Over 300 quarts of spawn was secured on two Meaford fishing tugs, it was revealed by Ken- neth Clock, who has just completed operations. At Thornbury over 200 quarts was taken.

The breakin took place while the proprie- tor and his family were in Chatham, and the thieves, apparently were not thwarted in their work by a watch dog left on the premises. The robbers gained access by breaking the glass in the door through which they opened the latch. They took a large quantity of cigarettes, tobacco and cigars of various brands, candies and chocolate bars, and also a small radio. They smashed the lock on the pump out- side, and stole an undetermined a- mount of gasoline. Provincial police, who are investigating, said no clues were left. PLAYING SAFE Mr. and Mrs. W.
