The rottenness that exists in the legal machinery of the New York griminal system seems to have no Nine men convicted of murder in New York since April, 1933, only a little more than one year ago, have been paroled, and of these, six are again waiting trial for another murâ€" der apiece.

But the hard work of the poâ€" lice is neutralized to a great extent by the operations of a parole board which is exercising its privileges in the most extraordinary fashion, THY‘RE LEARNING.â€" Why does the chicken cross the rowd just ahead of an auto?

In Canada every one of the ordinary tests of wellâ€"being shows the Dominâ€" ion making rapid recovery. Foreign trade in the first four months of the present year is nearly 50 per cent. better than in the corresponding period of 1933. The Customs and exâ€" cise revenues for April were almost $12,000,000 in excess of those of April last year. In the reports of the greater business corporations the profits earned in the past twelve months have been greater by 75 per cent. than in the previous year, ‘The improvement, of which these figures record the early fruits, began in Febâ€" ruary, 1933, and has been steady in the intervalâ€"London Daily Telegraph The story of the present economic conditions in Canada is a heartening addition to the recent evidence of improvement in Australia, in South Africa and in India, The Empire, as CANADA THROUGH BRITISH EÂ¥Es ONTARIO LEADS DOMINION iN AUTO FATALITIES.â€" The Province of Ontario last year established a record in the Dominion that should not be the envy of other provinces. It led ths entire country in the number of automobile fataliâ€" ties. According to the Dominion Burâ€" eau of Statistics, 954 persons in all were killed by motor cars in 1933, a decrease of 166 from the prevlous‘ year‘s figures. This made the death rate from cars per 100.000 popula-‘ tion 8.9 as compared with 10.7 in 1932, Ontario had the heaviest death toll in 1933â€"11.$ per 100,000 popula-’ tion. British Columbia stood second with a rate of 11.0. Nova Scotia‘s rate was 8.8, Quebec‘s 8.6 and Alber. ta‘s 8.5, In Prince Edward Island two persons were killed by automobiles during 1933. In Alberta the increase in number over the previous _ years was 15. Further analyzing the statisâ€" tics we find that Toronto decreased its toll from 88 in 1932 to 65 in 1933; Montreal from 121 to 104; Vancouver from 44 to 28.

He had the speaking acquaintance with the rattlesnake . in _ Bacon County also. Jones shot a squirrel and had stooped to pick it up when he noticed the ground seemed to be of an unnatural color. He then was standing within eight inches of the squirrel. _ Jumping back quickly, Jones fired a bullet, into the head of the rattlesnake which was coiled be-‘ tween him and the squirrel. The‘ snake had 19 rattles. & l The cyclone adventure came in 1898. The house in which Jones watched the storm was nearly swept awayâ€"but it withstood the wind, which went on to demolish several houses. While walking across a downtown street one day, Jones felt a severe jolt and found himself sitting on top of an automobile hood. He was all right thereâ€"but was bruised when the driver stopped suddenly and Jones fell to the stree«. "I never felt any shock from the lightning nor any heat." His only injury was a gashed cheek, but by the glass of the car window. "It seemed to hesitate an instant, then hopped down to the barrel of a shotgun lying at my feet," he said. The latest adventure was when a bolt of lightning fell in Jones‘ lapâ€" and then rolled off on to the floor of his car. Jones has neen struck by a carâ€"and has landed safely on top of its hood. He has lived through a «terrific storm in â€" Bacon County, Ga,. and once he almost touched a diamond back rattlesnake before seeing he was in error. The lightning that chose to light in Jones‘ lap tore bark off a nearby tree to a height of 30 feet. From thel‘ root of the tree the lighning dug a little trench across the road to a rear wheel of Jones‘ car, leaped to the back window, smashed the glass and fell in his lap.

We recall his sly pretense of puzzleâ€" ment when he compared the ways of Oxford with those of the universities that he was acquainted with on this side of the Atlantic, and finally his reluctant admission that somehow, dead against every conceivable possi. bility, Oxford "gets there" and his dark suspicion that it will continue to get there for many generations to come. _ No one in America knows the value of useless knowledge better‘ than Mr. Leacock, and his fascinating sketch of Oxford makes it clear that | the business of a university is to do | what for centuries Oxford has been| doing and to turn out the kind of| human produce that for centuries 0x-| ford has been turning out.â€"Albert Jay Nock in The Atlantic Monthly ot‘ Boston.
