Had Leg Broken Mrs. John Rear, east of humor-h. had the misfortune to break her right leg on Monday afternoon at her home. She had been nursing her mother, Mrs. Peter Reid Sr. in town. during her illness, and going home over Sunday. had intended returning Monday night. However that after. noon she slipped on in while going down a small hill and her toot turn- ed under her. snapping the bone above the ankle. It was set that ew ening. but it will probably be a month before she can set the foot to the ground. Want a fish and Game Warden At a public meeting held last Fri- day evening. but not Well attended, it was decided to urge upon the Provin- cial Government to have a Fish and Game Warden appointed for this dis- trict. as there seems to be none at the present time. The name of Arth- ur Thomas. now residing at Dr. Jam- ieson's cottage at the Lake, was sug- gested as a suitable otBeitth G. M. Leewn. M. P.

During the past summer our streams have been considerably denuded bv ang- lers who violated the law. both as to quantity and size at tish obtained. while law breaking hunters have also been getting away with it.

Rowland THE ROYAL BANK OF CANADA ldlaw received it tel from his son-in-Iaw Dunn of Moose Jaw at he had been re-el that city by a lam: HAVE YOU ANY MONEY IN THE BANK ? 'doc P present“) at the Exercise-s in Town Atext. 20th inst. Ad- JAM Ea EDEN shopping at the of this week J, Lrhuxr: Dr. n. Jamieson recently has de- posited the roments of a large can containing about 2000 tingerling trout trim-n he serum“ from the Caledon Club, into the stream ttowing out of Wilder's Lake, running through his bush to the west of it. The Lake is now stocked with bass, and the Dr. has had three or tour dams built on the stream, with runways that the trout may proceed up stream when desired. Dr Jamieson intends to have a much more thickly wooded bush in his 250 sores there than at present. Over 3500 pine trees have been plant. ed. and all cattle are to be kept out. henceforth to give thousands of young maples a chance to grow. The next generation will appreciate and enjoy the natural preserve now being created. It is hoped to make it a haven for bird life as well. The doc- tor has released some pheasants there similar to the Eugenia ones, ant: these are sometimes seen in the vi. cinity. Some are liable to meet the sun of the hunter, but it is hoped the, nook will increase. q Next Sunday the problem of Can- adian Immigration will be studied. This is the most important political, social and economic problem, also the most dimeult racial and religious qttesiion that Canadians face. New regulations are being outlined by the Government and citizens are facing the task of assimilating and christ- ianizing a vast horde of aliens. To understand the situation is the first hope of its solution. The Hockey Outlook it is years since there has been so little stir in hockey circles locally as this month, and chances are' bright that Durham wil have neither an In ternn-diate or Junior League team on the ice. The intermediates will likely arrange some exhibition games but feel they haw not suftieiently fast material to go Tf'ry tar in the race. We might be able to vanquish two or three neighboring towns provided they entered teams but against the strong Wiarton otttfit Durham woule. n't be in it. With the exception of one or two players. all the Juniors are on the High School team, and as this team is again entering a School League. it' looks like Durham's only League bunch this winter.
