Defendants claimâ€" ed there was 9 hours‘ work done and had paid $4.50 into couri. _ Plaintin claimed the full day as he was at the pit from 7 a. m. to 5 p.m. Judgment for the plaintiff for $5 and costs $7, less amount paid into court, to be paid in 14 days.

An order had been given for four dies to be used in the fitting oi window locks. These were not satisâ€" factory. The price for the four dies was to be $227.00. Later they were to cost more and bhad never menticnâ€" ed more dies necessary. The corresâ€" pondence was voluminous, and iue examination of _ the little articles, their merits and demerits were cisâ€" cussedâ€"long and wearisome to the ordinary man. Mr Henry handled his side of the case as if he had grown up with them, Mr Clarke being atso, apparently, sure of his ground. The otherside had expert witnesses te«â€" tifyving and the whole discussion was a problem for the Judge, who wiii give his decision later. monuMmENTs Persons desirous of erecting monuâ€" ments or having inscription work done on those already erected, should consult me before placing their ordâ€" er.

QuUEBEC STRONGLY LiBERAL A provincial election in Quebec on Monday returned Premier Taschereau and the Liberal party by a huge maâ€" jority. _ With 20 years of Liberalisin behind them the Liberal Gov‘t seems good for many years now. "Quebec profits â€" of vear." We take the above statement out oi the daily press. Five and a half millions of dollars profits for what ? Who paid the tremendous sum for liquors that means a profit to the profit to the Province of Quebec of five and a half milions The people ! In other words, the inhabitants of Quebec have spent in liquor enongh to place in the hands of their Proâ€" vincial Treasurer five and a hall millions of dollars to be expended by the Provincial Gov‘t in whatever way they wish,. The clever politician will tell the innocent voter that the Govâ€" ernment is making the millions to be expended on goo@ .roads, education, etc. for the benefii of the people. Generous, magnanimous _ politicians who take ten dollars out of the poot voter‘s pocket and then turns about and tells him he will be very generâ€" ous because he has that ten doliars, and will spend â€"one â€" dollar of it for the benefit of the innocent voter. That is practically what it means. But what about the ruined hopes, the blasted careers, the debauched mind, the sorrow to homes and lovâ€" ed ones, the privations and sufferâ€" ings of ‘innocent ones that five ang a haif million means to the peopie means to the people who made it :.or the government. If one could but get a glimpse into the thousands 0i homes that liquor has ruled, could but read the inner thoughts oi the men and women who have been made drunken, who have become debauchâ€" ed by those profits, could but know of the blasted careers of young m»=n, of the deep awful sorrow of wives and mothers who pay the real cost to make that five and a half millions profit, what a revelation as well as revu‘sion there would be. Ontario is going into the liquor hn We suppose the business will show a big profit that will ue po.nted to as a splendid result 0« a Government Control policy. Well, somcone will pay the cost, and ueâ€" pend upon it, the greatest drain will come from the homes where the young men are budding into manâ€" hood. The liquor business has alwavs been profitable. 1t will be profitable when conducted by the Province. The only regret we have is that we are compelled to be a party to that busâ€" iness against our will.â€"(Winchester Press) "Law is a queer thing" exclaims the Ori!l‘a Packet and Times, in commenting on another of those casâ€" es where a motorist took two frienus with him for a ride to a neighboring town and the car meeting with an accident on the way, the two friends sued the motorist for damages and an award of $7000 was made againsi him. > It appears that if the motorist had not invited the other two to go for the rideâ€"if they had asked him to give them the rideâ€"he would not have been liable. Yet we do not guarantee this to be good law. It is only what someâ€" body says the law is. It may turn out to be quite different in the next case that is dealt with in the courts, or o Toronto motorist keeps a cara in his vest pocket and whenever any one gets in his car he produces the card and the passenger is required to mark an X as his signature to a printed undertaking that he accepis the ride at his own risk. wâ€"_=~ an appeal goes to a higher court.

Each success ive annual report o the Mothers‘ Allowance Board, suys the O. Sound Sun Times, more fully justifies the wisdom and philanthroâ€" Dr. David Jamieson, former M.P. P. for South Grey, and former Speaâ€" er of the Ontario Legislature, bas been appointed Chairman of iue Mothers‘ Allowance Commission, in succession to Rev. Peter Bryce, who retires this week. p> ~f the provincial provision made for maintaining the homes of widows with dependent children .who uTier= wise would have no alternative bii to disperse their children and seek in some way to maintain themsetves; and possibly to save a little to help some of them later on, toward seliâ€" sunnort. Last year alowances were made to 4,552 families. _ It is interesting io note the relation between the nuimâ€" bers of children under 16 per famhy. One family has 12 ; one’u ; one 10; five 9 ; twenty 8 ; sixty six 7; One hundred and forty five 6; three hunâ€" dred and eleven 5; six hundred and eighty four 4; one thousand two. hundred and two 3 ; two thousand, ons hundred and nineteen 2. . Notiâ€" ing is done for the widow wiii omy ane child under 16, unless in tue case of a "totally and permanenitly incapacitated husband" of whnich the report shows only 67 cases. In such cases the allowance made is the same as if there were two dependent ch‘ldâ€" ren. It should be more. The total outlay last year was gi, $76,886, half of which was paid uy the province and the other half by the municipalities in which the homes relieved are situated ; more than half of them in rural municipalities. Of the 13,766 children in the homes, 12464 are in counties and districts and 6302 in towns and cities. There are on the list only 238 mothers who We exiend our sympathy to inc Chariton family who < have recently been bereaved of their daughter ary who has been in poor health ror som« years. _ The funcral takes place on Wednesday to Durham cemetery. Mr and Mrs Wm Seim and family spent Monday ev‘g with Mrs Sharne, Sr. About half a dozen whole families motored to Durham Sunday evenins. to hear Major Tolmie of Southamp ton in the new Presbyterian chur~h. . ~ not widows, but wives who have becn deserted, for three years or longer without hearing or receiving a~= "elp from their recreant Lusâ€" bands. There are also on the list 135 cases where both parents are dead The regular monthly meeiing of the Society was held in the schuolâ€" room of the church, May 12th, with the President, Mrs Jas. Mather, in the chair. _ The usual opening exercises were engaged in, prayer by the Pres ident, Mrs W. J. Derby read the scripture lesson with ‘several ladies leading in prayer. The hour was fulâ€" ly taken up in listening to very full and interesting reports from Grey Presbyterial, which was held in Cenâ€" tral United Church, Owen Sound on May 3rd. Mrs Meliraith spoke of the general work of the various societies as reported by their secreiartes at the Presbyterial, most of them very encouraging and showing progress in all lines of work. Mrs J. Bell gave a report dealing with the financial as pect of the Societies. Durham W. Mi. 8. came fifth in their givings forthe past year ; the Young Women Helpâ€" ers fourth for the young people‘s missionary contributions and the Misâ€" sion Band did well too, coming in amongst the highest in their conaâ€" tions. Mention was also made of several small bands of women conâ€" tributing _ most liberally of their means for the extension of Mission work. These reports all give an added stimuius to the W.M.S. to keep on working when we hear of what others are doing for the Masâ€" ter. Mrs McGirr read a very int»â€" esting story entitled â€" "The Three Rods" which was much enjoyed by all. The meeting closed by singing a hymn and repeating the Lord‘s Prayâ€" er in unison. Mr and Mrs Jno. Sharp and famâ€" ily, spent a pleasant evening at H. Reay‘s, Ebenezer, last Wednescay. A iew of the ladies from this part attended the W. Institute held at the home of Mrs Allan Wise of Alâ€" lan Park Wednesday last. »â€"â€" the childrenh are in the care of an available and suitable foster moâ€" ther. When it is considered how lignuy the financial burden of this great and worthy philanthropy rests "a the individual tax payer, and how crushing it would be to the widows and others relieved, the conclusion that it is money well invested is inâ€" c sp~table. What is done for the reâ€" lief of such widows and children is a commendable charity. Knox W. M.S. Delegates Give their Reports Mr and Mrs T. Widmeyer and family visited Tuesday with Mr snd Mrs Wm.
