Longtin, It was arranged that both parties should have one hour and a quarter to speak and that Mr.Fisher should have 10 minutes for rebuttal.Mr.Fisher took the floor first and spoke for fifty

M.L.A.spoke as follows: was duly elected your member.ol 4.LU 0 Le Mr.Taschereau and his millionaire ministers opposed Houde and his followers who have been referred to as demagogues.A demagogue is one who walks with the common people, therefore we of the Conservative party are proud to be classed as such.It is said Mr.Houde is a bootlegger, and by Taschereau that he has rotted the city of Montreal since he became mayor.I proclaim Mr.Houde a man of exceptional talent and a foremost speaker.He sprang from a humble home, his father died when he was young and it is true he was a bootblack.Through preparing himself and attending night school he afterwards became a bank manager and later Mayor of Montreal.He was elected mayor by an overwhelming majority.Now I don't ask you to accept only my statements of Mr.Houde or the paid orators who are going through the county at the present time.I ask you to take note of this letter that Lord Atholstan has written re Camillien Houde.\u201d ' \u201cThis year, new forces are in operation.To begin with, the Opposition is led by a vigorous, popular and is idle to deny that Mr.Houde has put new hope in his party.He has been conducting an aggressive campaign both in and outside of the Legislature which has removed the coming contest from the category of \u2018foregone conclusions\u2019 and given to the people of this Province for the first time in many years a real practical uncommonly victorious leader.alternative.\u201d \u201cAs to the capacity of the Houde party to govern, it will be recalled ) Houde went into power at the City Hall in Montreal, his opponents predicted that, even after driving out the Water Deal gang, they would so mismanage the that when Mr.city's affairs as to provide their own condemnation.\u201cIt is only fair to say that this terrible prediction has not only failed fulfilment but that it can be truthfully reported that Mr.Houde and his associates have done in two years more for Montreal's benefit than was done in the previous 15 years under the Martins, the Brodeurs and the Des Roches.\u201cI do honor the Hon.L.A.Tas- chereau but I do not his policies.I do not purpose entering into either

Chateauguay Accident Occurred When Vehicle Was Hit by Hub of Passing Car One man was killed and four other persons suffered bruises and cuts, when the automobile in which they were travelling turned turtle on the highway at Ville De Lery, Chateau- guay, Sunday evening.The crash occurred following a collision with an- cther motor car.The overturned automobile was demolished in the accident.The dead man is Nazaire Marini, 45 years of age, of 41 Ellice street, Beauharnois, son of Petro Marini, of Penaro, Italy.Nazaire Marini had been a resident of Canada for the last 35 years, and was a naturalized Canadian subject.He was an expert cement finisher in the employ of the Beauharnois Construction Co.The victims who escaped with minor injuries are Roy Stevenson, driver and owner of the wrecked motor car, Mrs.Stevenson, his wife, and two friends named Parmentiono and Primo.Raymond Hank, of Montreal, was the driver of the other motor car.It was learned that the latter was following Stevenson's automobile and blew his horn for the road.In passing, however, the hub of one of the wheels of Stevenson's automobile struck the side of Hank's automobile with the result that the automobile containing the five persons turned about and completely overturned.While Marini was killed instantly his four companions remained trapped in the wrecked vehicle.Passing motorists went to the aid of the victims and extricated them.The victims were removed to Beau- harnois Construction Company Hospital, where Marini was pronounced dead of a crushed skull, and the others were able to go home after hospital treatment.First aid was rendered by Dr.J.Lussier and Dr.Hebert, both residents of Montreal, but spending their vacation at their Bellevue summer residence.Former Creamery Supt.Here, Died at Utica Mr.Wesley McLeod, 74, of Utica, N.Y., passed away Wednesday night, August 5th, in a hospital in Utica after a brief illness.The body was brought to Ft.Covington by train on Friday and interment made Saturday afternoon, August 8th, in Elmwood cemetery.Rev.Murray Gardner of Brewster, N.Y., conducted a short burial service at the grave.Mr.McLeod was born in Lonsvale, Ontario, October 17, 1857.He received his education in the schools there and later attended a commercial college.He learned the trade of cheesemaking.For nine years he was superintendent of some seventy creameries located in Glengarry and Huntingdon counties.Then he obtained a commission under the Dominion government as an instructor in cheese-making in the Agricultural Department, a position which he held for three years.In 1894, Mr.McLeod moved to Utica where he resided until his death.He was united in marriage to Miss Mary Smith, daughter of the late Mr.and Mrs.M.M.Smith, of Dundee, Quebec, by whom he is survived.The Bee Man From Beman Street If you have travelled much by train from Malone to Montreal, undoubtedly you have heard more or less concerning \u201cRoyal Jell\u201d for this much-awaited rejuvenator and elixir of life has become a current and popular topic on trainboard.You are most likely to hear of it from those who come to you and inquire where you were born and if you have proof to show that you are a bonafide subject of Uncle Sam, for the movement is being painstakingly fostered by immigration men of both governments.The legend of Royal Jell goes back to ancient history.Solomon is said to have known its secret formula.Hence the name.Just how the thing was revived up here could not be definitely learned.But one officer, a keeper of bees, is turning the

branch has been organized and a prominent US.immigration official and à member of the customs service were overjoyed recently when the instigator of the project came to them and announced that they

well arranged and all went off without a hitch.In the afternoon President\u201d P.B.McArthur acted as chairman and called upon many men present to make short addresses.The addresses were all more or less congratulatory to the Ness family, the Ayrshire breeders and to the community in general.Amongst the many speakers numbered Messrs.J.A, Ste-Marie, Dr.John Ness, Dr.J.C.Moore, Hon.Honoré Mercier, S.J.Chagnon, W.F.Stephen, Erskine Rodger, George Collum, R.N.Mitchell, Mayor George Hogg of Westmount, David Hunter and Frank Pewtress ,the two field- men of the Canadian Ayrshire Breeders\u2019

prizes.Eleven girls also entered into the stock judging competition and when Dr.Moore made the presentation to Violet McFarlane, he not only commended her upon her good judgment of stock but suggested

offered for sale.T.J.Graham auctioned the calf off for $110.Bruce Ness being the purchaser.To complete the field day at Burnside, it would not have been complete if the boys did not get an insight into showing cattle.A contest of 20 boys was therefore made up and prizes awarded for the one displaying best ability in showing an animal.\u2018Twenty animals from the show herd of Burnside paraded the green and after due judging time elapsed, the judges decided Donald Ness was the champion showman, 2nd Arch Peddie, 3rd Clarence Stark, 4th Cameron Goundry, 5th Allan Wilson, 6th Arch.Roy.In

to 1919, Minister of Lands and Forests from 1919 to the present time under various Liberal regimes, and Liberal member for the county of Chateauguay for the past 24 years, was again unanimously chosen as candidate for the county in the forthcoming provincial elections by delegates to a Liberal convention held in the parish hall at Ste.Martine on Wednesday afternoon.The candidate made no promises, he stated facts.The first of these was that an agricultural college would be built in the very near future in Ste.Martine, the ground having already been purchased for this purpose by the Liberal Government.Loud applause greeted the minister's announcement and louder it grew when Mr.Mercier declared that, beaten or not, the Liberal Government had arranged things in such fashion that construction of the college would be started before many weeks passed.The speaker declared it was not his intention of making a review of the Liberal party's activities for the past 34 years as the electors of Chat- eauguay knew full well what they were.He thanked the delegates for again choosing him as the Liberal standard-bearer for the historical county of Chateauguay and he stated that in the future, as in the past, he would always look after the interests of the electors of the county who had so consistently been good to him.The speaker quoted statistics.He sald that Chateauguay county had benefitted from grants of the provincial government to the following extent: for the development and furtherance of agriculture, $182,000; for road programmes, $3,000,000; for hygiene and schools, $95,000 and for public works of all descriptions, $80,- 000.\u201cIt's true,\u201d the delegates cheered.\u201cI will not promise if we are returned to power that your cows will give more milk,\u201d the Minister continued, \u201cI leave that kind of promise to Mr.Houde and his friends.I would like you to examine the pedigree of the chiefs of the two parties in Quebec.Look at Mr.Taschereau with his wonderful ancestry, and look at Mr.Houde and Allan Bray.The less I say about them the better.\u201d \u201cWe are not interested in Houde and Bray,\u201d a member of the audience shouted, and Mr.Mercier went on to say that he hardly blamed him, In the \u2018good old days,\u201d Mr.Mercier averred, there were two parties in Quebec, two parties with well defined and sincere ideas.Today, however, there was Liberalism and Houd- ism.The latter was not by any means the sterling Conservatism of old, but the creed of a people who seemed to have a failing for demagogues.tinued, the electors knew for whom they were voting, be the candidate Liberal or Tory.Today, on the other hand, the people knew that when they were voting for L.A.Tascher- eau they were voting for a man of sterling worth and integrity whereas if they voted for the Opposition leader they were not sure of anything.The meeting was of short order, the only other speaker besides the candidate being Leon-Mercier Gouin, K.C., son of the late Sir Lomer Gouin.Mr.Mercier\u2019s nomination was pro- by Clement Duranceau and seconded by Napoleon Poirier.The chairman was E.G.Mahon, and the secretary, Thomas T.Gebbie.BUTTERSCOTCH COOKIES Tne dough for these may be stirred up while you are getting supper and you can bake them any morning while you are washing the breakfast dishes.They are better if

BOWLING TOURNAMENT SATURDAY Two Valleyfield Teams Play Off For Silverware\u2014Honors Went to Bert Gurnham, Philbin, McCuaig and Webster\u2014Silver Water Jugs Presented Individuals ORMSTOWN ELIMINATED IN THIRD ROUND Four Rinks From Valleyfield and Chateauguay Enter, and Five From Ormstown and Huntingdon Respectively True to form, the Valleyfield bowlers edged out victorious at the bowling tournament held in Huntingdon on Saturday.The tournament was made possible, and brought about through the presentation made to the Huntingdon Bowling Club of a suitable trophy for such a competition by Martin B.Fisher, M.L.A.Much credit for the success of the tournament is due the tournament secretary J.A.Lanktree, and to the Club President D.L.Kelly.It would be erroneous to pass by G.Cecil Stark who so materially assisted both the aforementioned in making the preparations for the day of days in the interest of lawn bowling in Huntingdon during this season.Eighteen rinks entered the tournament.Four rinks from Valley- field, four from Chateauguay, five from Ormstown and five from Hun- tingdon participated in the competition for the beautiful silver cup and the four individual stlver jugs for the winning team.Due to form, or good taste, whichever way one llkes to put it, the five Huntingdon teams were gracefully eliminated in the first round.Next in turn, the four rinks from Chateauguay were eliminated and in the third round Percy Osmond of Ormstown went down te defeat by Bert Gurnham of Valleyfield.In the third round three Valleyfield teams and Osmond were still in the fray.Joe Taylor and J.Coates, both of Valleyfleld, sawed off to see who was to play either Osmond or Gurnham.Taylor holds an enviable reputation in the Cotton City for his skilful bowling and he easily triumphed over Coates by a 6 to 17 victory.Gurnham won from Osmond but nol by such a comfortable majority, for it was only by two points, The final round started around 9.30 p.m.between Bert Gurnham and Joe Taylor.It was a fight to be watched with unusual Interest by the many Valleyfleld supporters present, along with Huntingdonians.Taylor and Gurnham have been playing doubles together gince May l'Hh.This aggregation have played 18 games since that date and have won every game.Here at Huntingdon we saw the stalwarts of the game in opposition to one another.Gurnham and Taylor played most spectacular games.Although Gumham scored a comfortable lead early in the game, Taylor was not found napping, for end after end saw the scores coming closer together; however, Gurnham won the leurels with the good will of Taylor and his team.Mr.Fisher, not being preseni, the honor of bestowing the cup on Mr.Gurnham for safe-keeping until next summer rested upon Mr.J.A.Lank- tree.Mr.Gurnham accepted the prized trophy thanking the Club for arranging the tournament, so made possible through Mr.Fisher.The Valleyfield players present felt certain that another year would see a great many more entrants come for the tournament.Mr.J.W.Stark in behalf of the Huntingdon Club presented the silver water jugs suitably engraved to the four players who were Messrs.Webster, Philbin, Mc- Cualg and Gurnham.President D.L.Kelly expressed words of thanks in behalf of the Club to the many players who came to Huntingdon from Chateauguay, Ormstown and Valleyfield for the day, and extended the invitation for a greater number to come to the tournament next year when the Fisher trophy would again be competed for along with the tournament prizes.The players and scores by rounds were:

the petroleum deposits of the South Shore is promised in the announcement made by J.8.Norris.managing-director of Montreal Power, that his comnany, ig association with Southern Canada Power, Shawinigan and McColl-Frontenac proposed to assist in efforts to produce crude oll in that region on a commercial basis.Geologists have contended that a well-defined belt of the South Shore, stretching between St.Hyacinthe and a point opposite Three Rivers, is rich in petroleum wealth, and although at intervals development on a big scale has been mooted, not until the present has the project received such significant sponsorship as that implied in the announcement by Mr.Norris, Officials of Shawinigan, while not denying the participation of that company in the proposed development, were inclined to be reticent, the secretary of the company saying that official comment would be withheld until the return to town of the Shawinigan chemist presently vacationing in Europe.It was gathered, however, that the Shawinigan company had been a party to the scheme for some time.One of the geologists who has made a special survey of the district pointed out that people need have no fear that the present development will turn out to be another Oklahoma or Turner Valley.What is expected is something similar to the northern New York wells.The importance of the find will be great, however, as it is hoped to be able to supply the whole neighboring district with natural gas.It is estimated that there are 200,- 000 people within a radius of 50 miles, taking in such places as Three Rivers, Joliette, Granby, Sherbrooke, Sorel, Ste.Hyacinthe, Drummond- ville and St.Johns, and not counting Montreal and Quebec and the gas could be supplied to them also.This geologist has also said that the work which will be carried out on the south shore, is entirely different to those operations which have been carried on on the other side of the river, where drilling has been attempted for many years and is still in progress, in spite of the fact that no gas has been found at greater depths than 205 feet, about 100 feet in the shale.' It is clearly indicated by the entry of these large holding companies into the development of oil and natural gas resources of this district that the geoligists\u2019 surveys have led to great confidence in the minds of Canadian and American business men. Page 2 The Huntingdon Gleaner Published by the Huntingdon Gleaner Inc.Brown Bldg., Huntingdon, Que.Subscription rates, Canada $1.50 year; Foreign $2.00.Agents: A.Beaudin & Son, Ormstown, Que.; J.O'Neil, Valleyfield, Que.Huntingdon, Que., Wednesday, August 19th, 1931 Should we Elect Taschereau or Houde Premier?Monday is polling day in Quebec and it will then be decided whether Quebec is to continue being governed by the Liberals, as it has so successfully been done for the past 34 years, or whether it will change and the reins of office to be held by Camillien Houde.At the close of the last session, 12 seats were Conservative and 73 Liberal.Five seats have been added, so that on Monday 90 members are to be elected.No acclamations were declared on Monday, but that is no surprise.The greatest surprise was that Camillien Houde would take onto himself the responsibility of trying to win two seats.To the people, it looks as though he realized his weakness in St.Mary's, and therefore thought there was safety in numbers so took on the St.James constituency as well.Although Mr.Houde was acclaimed Mayor of Montreal by substantial majorities, he has lost favour amongst many of his friends, not the least of which appears the Montreal Gazette.The Gazette was always considered the greatest Conservative authority in Montreal; but it has repeatedly quoted editorially on the soundness of the Taschereau government and its beneficial legislation.A year ago the Montreal Star, the largest English metropolitan paper, came out nightly with headlines praising the Conservative party, but this year we find that great Conservative paper giving Mr.Houde prominence, but by no means the avalanche of importance that was portrayed a year ago for the Conservative party.From these, the two greatest English papers in the province, both Conservative, it is indicative that they are favourably inclined to Mr.Tas- chereau, leader of the Liberal party, rather than to Mr.Houde.The great pleas being made during the brief campaign are quite similar to those of 1930.Mr.Houde is making boastful promises and Mr.Taschereau is asking that his government be judged by past legislation.Both parties have much to talk about, and in Huntingdon county the speakers are getting creditable and respectful audiences.Personalities have not entered into the campaign which means politics are certainly being lifted to a higher level.The people of Huntingdon certainly appreciate this feature of the political campaign and are very grateful to Mr.Fisher and Mr.Blair, who both intimated early in the campaign that they would not tolerate such actions being carried on in their behalf.At the nomination day meeting Mr.Fisher, the Conservative candidate, spoke at great length upholding the Houde promised policies.It is not necessary to recite them here, but we ask our readers to respectfully read the nomination day addresses.Mr.Blair spoke briefly, made no promises but stood pat.defending the Liberal administration which has been so helpful to Huntingdon county in the past.Mr.Blair can not believe it possible for any Government to go back into power at Quebec at this time except that of Mr.Taschereau.He knows Huntingdon wants concessions in order to promote its educational and road building programmes, and urges the people to elect him on August 24th.in order that the county might be duly represented by one supporting the government in power.The inconsistency of some of the Houde promised policies is glaring and would be deceiving the public if they went into power, making farmers believe they would get money for farm loans at 2.The Federal Government today makes farm loans through the Provincial government, but the rate of interest is not 2\u201d.not 3\u201d; nor is it 4% but the rate is 6:47}.The Taschereau Government knows this is a high rate of interest for the farmer to pay, so they in turn subscribe to the interest to the extent of 114%, thereby making the rate to the farmer 57.Five per cent money is as cheap and reasonable as any farmer could hope to receive, and to expect 2% money is utterly ridiculous.If you don't believe this statement, ask your banker if he can loan you money at 2¢;.If a government can loan money at 27 so could a bank, but they don't and can't.Another favoured subject for the Houde following to proclaim is a promise of a 3c a pound bonus on every pound of butter produced in rural Jactories.We heard too much about butter a year ago; what Canada wants is greater export markets so as fo develop trade.not a 3c bonus that is not fair to one and all farmers alike.The farmers here produce milk for the whole milk market.The farmers here have just built a factory, do they hope to make money out of making butter?No, they hope to specialize in selling high grade milk to the Montreal market, and merely make up the surplus milk into butter or cheese.Mr.Fisher said he would like to see more creameries in the country.Are we to take from that.that he would like to see more farmers getting forty to fifty cents a hundred for milk when the whole milk shipper to Montreal gets $1.20 to $1.30 net.The three cents a pound bonus on butter will not make up that difference by a long way.It's not a bonus on butter the farmers want.it is export trade that is wanted.If Canada had more trade treaties in operation and exports being made, industry would be better than it is today in Montreal and elsewhere in Canada and the workmen would be freer with their money and able to buy more butter; rather than see the market flooded as it is today.More export trade with better business conditions would also react on the whole milk market, and the consumption of milk would be considerably increased, all for the benefit of this constituency.It's not a 3 cent bonus that's wanted it is sane Liberal administration that will stimulate trade, not a government that drives trade away.No one can question the stability of the finances of this province which leads all Canada.The safe and sound administration of the Liberal government under the direction of L.A.Taschereau, who has proved his worth, is certainly one worthy of being returned to power on August 24th.\u2018The electors of Huntingdon county can now do their part by electing to Quebec, a Liberal representative in the person of R.W.Blair.Is a Y.M.C.A.the Solution Years ago a movement was given some progress towards forming a Y.M.C.A.in Huntingdon.This movement.we believe.followed the war.in 1918 or 1919.The Rev.Donald McLeod was the Y.M.C.À.official with whom the local people had most to do.Mr.McLeod at just about this time entered upon the pastoral work, and shortiy after became a minister at Howick.Then again it was decided to erect a war memorial, and not a buliding which might appropriately be used as a Y.M.C.A.building, 80 Huntingdon is still without a place where men, young and old alike, might go for wholesome enlightenment and recreation.Huntingdon still has scores of young men who come to town every evening to help swell the numbers loitering about the streets.We certainly welcome the young manhood to the town to associate with the townspeople, but should these men of tomorrow, as well as the men of today, have nothing more to do in leisure hours than to loaf about stores and streets?Who can offer something better for these men than to have a Y.M.C.A?The Y.M.C.A.can be made to treat of many phases but when Mr.Duckworth was in Huntingdon on Thursday last making a survey, he felt Huntingdon needed the social and athletic part of the association more than perhaps anything else at the present time.Mr.Duckworth interviewed a few men of Huntingdon during his brief visit.He has the names of many other men of Huntingdon and he will interview them on this matter in due time.To the men of Hun- tingdon, we suggest that they debate this matter over in their minds and when the Y.M.C.A.representative meets them, or calls a meeting in Huntingdon, you will be prepared to express your opinion.Mr.Duckworth looked around Huntingdon for a possible place for a Y.M.C.A.to make its headquarters.In order that a Y.M.C.A function it is advisable not to créate a great overhead expense at the start, therefore it was thought that possibly the skating rink rooms could be used to best advantage.\u2019 With & moderate sum of money expended, the rooms and exterior frontage of the rink could be renovated so as to make it an inviting place to go to for recreation.The arena part might be levelled so that indoor sports could be carried on, rain or shine, day or night.The build- , ing would be used 12 months of the year in place of merely the winter months.The Rink Association might be quite willing to lease the pro- _perty for 8 YM.C.A.and it in turn could operate the rink in winter Moise CT ; Now you know what the ¥.M C.A.thinks of our possibilities of having à unit in Huntingdon.De you feel Huntingdon should have that worihy organization foster and supervise a Y.M.C.A.unit in this town?Are you prepared to not only become a member of such an association\u2019 but lend it assistance and co-operation?To help swing the association local- - ly, would you be willing te subscribe to its finances for the welfare of the young people who are in need of such a place, but who have not the cash to promote and build such an association?4 » ai TE he THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER Clever \u201cHello\u201d Girl Signor Mussolini recently invited a Berlin telephone girl to spend her holiday in Italy at the expense of the Italian Government, because the girl rendered excellent service when the Duce called up the Italian Ambassador at Berlin.The line was disturbed, but the girl came to the rescue and conveyed Mussolini's message to the Ambassador in perfect Italian.Mussolini asked the girl for her name, but she refused to reveal it, in accordance with official instructions.Later the Ambassador found out her name and the invitation was extended.Even now the postal authorities refuse to reveal the name of the girl, who is said to speak four foreign languages fluently.She rejected offers by a film company to act as a voice double in talking films.Grasshoppers Galore Sere, brown fields, cut down as by a giant fiery blast, bore testimony in three U.S.states to a scourge of grasshoppers.In Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota, fields denuded of every green blade showed the effects of a thorough-going plague.In Nebraska six- ty-three of the state\u2019s ninety-three counties have been infested.In one South Dakota field of 1,600 acres, Jowa State entomologists found not enough grass to feed a single animal.Prayers and poison were resorted to as weapons.One Pierre, S.D., farmer, hearing that turkeys would eat the grasshoppers, sent his flock into the fields.He said they came back featherless.A.L.Ford, extension entomologist of South Dakota State College, described the infestation as the worst that has ever wisited North America.Young Boy Hanged Himself A very sad tragedy occurred at the home of Mr.and Mrs.Davis on the Trenton-Picton highway near Carrying Place, Ontario, when their young son, Gordon, aged 12 years, slipped while playing with his two-year-old brother and fell to his death.The boys were playing in a barn near their home.The elder lad attached a dog chain to his own neck and was performing antics on a structure which he had built across two beams in the barn, for the amusement of his little brother.It is presumed he lost his balance and fell to the barn floor, a distance of 12 feet.The accident happened shortly after one o'clock in the afternoon, but was not discovered until later in the day, as no anxiety was felt by the parents until the boy failed to appear at meal time.Upon questioning, the little two-year-old lad told the parents that Gordon was out in the shed tangled up in the chain.A hurried search revealed Gordon's lifeless body suspended from the beam a few feet from the floor.Paderewski's Worst Piano On the occasion of his departure from England to take up his political duties in Poland, M.Paderewski made the first portion of his journey in a British destroyer.Here, as was natural, he was hospitably entertained and honored in the wardroom which boasted a piano that had been treated in a most disrespectful manner.After dinner his hosts pressed M.Paderewski to play to them; and though he was reluctant at first, he finally yielded to their argument, after having first pulled up to their normal level as many of the notes as had not been permanently levelled flat with the wood.After the pianist had evoked something in the nature of music from this rather unsatisfactory instrument, some of his hosts pulled off its sole remaining pedal.This was inscribed: \u201cPresented to Ignaz Paderewski as a souvenir of the worst piano he.has ever played upon,\u201d and presented to the pianist on disembarkaton.Flowering Animals A unique spectacle recently attracted much attention at Easdale village pier, 16 miles south of Oban.where the wooden piles were covered from the sea-bed to high-water mark with thousands of sea- anemones of all sizes and colors.Some had \u201cblooms\u201d over a foot in diameter.These plant-like animals have formed enormous colonies, and in the opinion of officials of the scientific department of the Scottish Fishery Board, who made a special visit to Eas- dale recently.it is doubtful if another display of the kind is to be seen round the British coast.Sea-ane- mones, when dislodged from the piles or rocks to which they cling and drawn out of the water melt away almost immediately into shapeless masses of Jelly.Castor Oil Dose Repaid The age-old law of brotherly love has no place in Judge Clifford Thompson's court.The judge's brother, Dr.R.L.Thompson, was cited into court for speeding.The traffic tag also said the doctor's car was without a tail light.Ordinarily Judge Thompson suspended tail light tags.\u201cFive dollars for speeding and $2 for the absence of tail light,\u201d the judge ordered.\u201cAnd now, doctor, the last time I was ill do you remember what you prescribed for me?\u201d Judge Thompson asked.\u201cSure I do.I made you take a dose of castor oil,\u201d Dr.Thompson declared.\u201cYes, I can taste it yet,\u201d the judge grimaced.\u201cNext case.\u201d Wife Bares Her Shame Mrs.Lulu Herrin, in Superior Judge Tuttle's court, bared her shame that she might save Shelton W.Herrin, her husband, from prison.Herrin was charged with assault to murder John A.Quickel.He alleged he shot in self-defense.Herrin, it is said, after receiving an anonymous telephone message, went to his home and found Mrs.Herrin and Quickel together.Mrs.Herrin admitted this was correct.The two men started to fight.Quickel, she said struck Herrin with a chair and Herrin shot him in self-defense, Woman Gives Away Houses Mrs.Willlam H.Clarke, wife of a wealthy retired New York paper merchant, decided that two houses and seven farm buildings on her Stockbridge, Mass, estate, \u201cVilla Virginia,\u201d detracted from the beauty of her Italian-designed Summer home.So she gave all nine structures, valued at $50,000, to farmers who agreed to move them away.\u2014i1:zm= Fr hat.He ston found that he had taken

W.Hill of Wednesbury, England, is now sorry that he invented a car that talks.Although he had good intentions, something went wrong with the mechanism and he is now in jail for \u201csaucing\u201d an officer.Percy's car was so arranged that when he wanted to slow up, it would shout, \u201cI am going to slow up,\u201d or \u201cI am going to stop.\u201d The car would announce that it was going to twrn right or left and said \u201cthank you\" to those who gave it the right of way.Percy's mistake was that he had one more record in the car, and that was the record that went wrong.It was supposed to yell at a roadhog, \u201cYou big stiff, why don't you get out of the way?\u201d And the car said it when approaching a traffic officer.Clock From Scrap Iron An unusual clock is to be seen in front of a garage in West Birmingham.It is constructed of old motor parts and scrap material, is electrically driven, and controlled by a master clock.The clock, made by J.H.Priddey, has been \u201cgoing\u201d for some months, and since January has not varied more than four seconds from Greenwich time.The only parts of the clock which have not been made from automobile material are the dial and fingers.The dial\u2014 three feet in diameter, and weighing nearly a cwt., is of cast iron, and was bought from a scrap merchant's yard, while the fingers have been made out of sheet copper.How Slayer Was Picked A voice came from the shadow box at the Central police station in Los Angeles, and out of the darkness a cry came back from an 80-year-old woman: \u201cThat's the voice.I'd know it anywhere.The man with that voice is the man who killed my son.\u201d The lights flashed on.The shadow box revealed Percy Eberly, whom police arrested on suspicion of killing E.M.Hatch, three years ago, in a holdup.The woman was the victim's mother, Mrs.M.A.Hatch.\u201cI didn't see the man very well,\u201d Mrs.Hatch recalled, \u201cbut I'd know that voice any time\u2014any place.\u201d Eberly was arrested on a minor charge.Police were surprised to find his fingerprints corresponding to the only clue left by the killer of Hatch\u2014 a set of fingerprints on a door in the Hatch home.Eberly denied the crime.The son was slain as he attempted to prevent the holdup of his mother and father.Wireless to Open Doors Wireless-operated burglar proof locks and dpor- opening devices make the residence of George Palin of Lancashire, England, a wonderfull immune and well-protected dwelling.When Palin want to open his garage door from his car, he doesn't have to step out and unlock the door and then get back into his car and drive it in.He can do it without leaving the driver's seat.He merely presses a button in the car.This causes a spark, by which a radio wave is transmitted to a receiver inside the garage and the doors swing open.They are closed by the pressure on another button., All gates are burglar proofed by art other device afiä when Palin takes the alarm clock from its hook in his kitchen it automatically clamps back the doors.When the clock is hung again the doors open.Germany's Fattest Man Following a heart attack, Robert Roggendorf has died, aged only 47, at Duisburg.He was Germany's heaviest inhabitant.Robert, who weighed 539 lbs., earned his living by exhibiting his enormous size.He travelled about for this purpose in a motor van specially designed to accommodate him.His colossal proportions necessitated various precautions.His bed and chairs were of extarordinary size and strength.The front door of his house was about twice as wide as the doors of his neighbors.No railway company would allow Robert to board a train, Nor was he permitted to ride in a tram.There are no cars or compartments in existence with doors through which he could pass.Ordinary motor cars or taxicabs, of course, were out of the question.Flying Hen and Eggs A high flying hen and a basket of eggs have successfully demonstrated the practicability of a new parachute designed to drop articles from airplanes without damage.Tests were recently made at the Moscow airdrome by Soviet aviation experts.The hen, strapped to a basket filled with eggs, dropped 1,000 metres.It survived, clucking vigorously, and not a single egg was broken.The parachute is very small and is not yet adapted to human use.It consists of a rubber covered, air filled bag attached to a regulation, umbrella-like apparatus.It costs only fifty rubles (nominally $25) to build and its designers claim it surpasses any similar contrivance because it drifts earthward much slower.It is expected to prove a big stride forward in small commercial delivery by air mail in that it will obviate many stops.Odorless Skunks The much maligned polecat, mophitis mephitis, to give his scientific name, is on the way to losing its one claim to notoriety.Thanks to intensive breeding experiments, the odorless skunk has come to stay.Not only has careful breeding.supplemented by veterinary surgery, removed the objectionable feature of close companionship with the wood \u201cpussy,\u201d but the animals also are stripeless.Although experiments are not fully concluded, it is felt that these hygienic polecats have reached a stage of development where they may be offered to the world's fur market.Nonagenarian Enjoys Swim A unique record is held by Thomas Dawson, a Toronto resident, aged 94.Returning from his two weeks\u2019 vacation recently, it was learned that Mr.Dawson had been seen in the waters at Lake Mus- koka.Visited by a reporter, Mr.Dawson admitted he plunged into the water of a lake in Muskoka four times a day during his two weeks\u2019 stay.Back to School at 83 = Walter A.Church, 83, of Long Beach, Cal, obtained an A.B.degree from the University of

Story in Conservation of Wild Life.\u2014 Shaggy Quadrupeds of Western Plains [Of outstanding interest is the announcement that visitors to the Central Canada Exhibition this year will have thie opportunity of viewing at first hand three real live buffaloes, \u2018hich have already been shipped from their home in Buffalo National Park, at Wainwright, Alberta.Included in the trio are a butfalo bull weighing in the neighborhood of 2,- 300 pounds, as well as a buffalo cow and calf.These huge shaggy quadrupeds are the center of attraction «æherever they are, and Ottawa will prove no exception.Sixty years ago the buffalo or \u201cbison americanus\u201d was the outstand- big game animal of North Am- ca.It roamed the Western plains of Canada and the United States in what were thought to be inexhaustible numbers, but the arrival of the railways, settlements and the modern rifle proved the doom of this noble ruminant.Between 1870 and 1885 millions of these great beasts were ruthlessly slaughtered, and carcasses left in thousands on the plains to rot.Hides sold as low as one dollar apiece, and by 1890 the buffalo had been practically wiped out.The .inception of the present herds form one of the most interesting stories in the annals of wild life conservation.In 1907 the Dominion government had an opportunity to purchase a pure bred herd of buffalo from a Monatana rancher by name of Pablo, who had developed a herd of over 1,000 from an original nucleus of four calves captured on the plains.Pablo had lost his ranching privileges in Montana, and the Canadian sovernment snapped up the opportunity of securing a number of this almost extinct species, formerly indigenous to Western Canada.Over 700 head were finally delivered to Elk Island Park in

Malone Fair, Aug.25th-28th, has arranged four games that should be thrillers from start to finish.For the first two days the Fair Haven, Vt., Collegians will cross bats with the noted Chappie Johnson's Colored Stars, and the last two days will bring together the fast Carthage Independents and the colored boys.Last year the black boys furnished two days of as snappy baseball as has been seen in Malone in many years, and the hit they made with the fans was such as to warrant their engagement for the full four days this year.In addition to being one of the fastest semi-pro teams in the country the Johnson outfit numbers several comedians in its roster and before each game they put on a show that will drive the blues away from the bluest.There will be a full nine inning game each afternoon which will be additional to the big program of racing, vaudeville and the pot pourri of entertainment that is always offered by the Franklin County Fair Management.On Wednesday, August 26th, the first annual Dog Show under the auspices of the American Kennel Club, will be a feature of the midway.Hundreds of fine specimens have been entered for the show which is under the direction of Hector Huard, Jr, of Winooski, Vt.Each evening there will be the regular vaudeville program, band concert by the famous Red Huzzar Band, fireworks and horse show.In the latter Secretary Mason has announced the entry of scores of the finest animals in the United States and Canada.They include jumpers, hunters, hackneys, ponies and saddle horses.The popularity of this feature of the fair is growing with each succeeding show and it is expected the 1931 exhibition will draw many interested spectators.Prices of admission for the first and last days have been lowered to fifty cents for adults with children under fifteen being admitted free.This should bring hundreds of additional pleasure seekers to the fair.St.Agnes de Dundee Mr.James Leger was a business caller in Montreal on

Welfare Meots With Almest Uniform Approval Where Tried\u2014Over Six According to a cable from London, the British House of Commons has voted against a proposal to legalize the sterilization of mentally deficient persons.The bill as proposed is similar to acts in operation in the Prov- ihce of Alberta and in twenty-two of the states of the American Republic.The Albérta Act was passed in 1928.It provides for the sterilization of an inmate of a mental institution when in the opinion of a specially appointed board such action is in the best interests of the individual himself (or herself) or of the community.Before the sterilization operation cau be performed the consent of the individual, if competent, or his legal guardians must be obtained.California has had a sterilisation law in operation for over twenty yéars and\u2019 in that time more than 6,- 000 persbns have been sterilized.In 1928, the wiiter made a speclal investigation of the workings of the California Act and found that there was practically no opposition to it, and that it Mas proved to be of great as- sisthnee in the social ¢ontrol of men- \u2018tally deficient persons.Much of the opposition to sterilization aMses out of igtiorAnce of the \u2018proposal.In some Cases people are opposed on religious or ethical grounds.The chief error made by many opponents is in regard to the nature of the operation.They are \u2018under the impression that the Oter- ation is equivalent to emasculation, that \u2018essential organs are removey.The operation, however, does not interfere with the performance of the sexual act; it merely prevents procreation.Sterilization laws usually apply both to the insane and to the mentally deficient, but their greatest value would appear to be in respect to the latter.The only other way to deal with a mentally deficient woman, for instance, is to keep her locked up during the child-bearing per- lod, Institutions for mental deficients contain a great

they talk against Houde, the more good than harm they are doing him.\u201d Dr.Moore concluded with a plea for the county Lo support the Conservative candidate, Mr.Fisher.Albert Théberge For Liberals \u201cSpeaking of Ontario as banner province as compared with Quebec or insinuating such,\u201d said Mr.Théberge, \u201cDr, Moore should have stated that the debt per capita in Ontario is $16.as compared with $11.in Quebec.Mr.Fisher told you a while ago that he was alone while Mr.Archambault, a Montreal lawyer, was on the platform with him.\u2018Last year they came telling that King was responsible for hard times.unemployment, lowness of the price of butter, and I couldn't list how many other things.This year, Mr.Fisher promises you a 3-cent bonus on butter.They packed you with promises about butter in the Federal election last year and Mr.Bennett was so successful with such an issue, Mr.Houde is trying the same grease.One of the previous speakers has mentioned the fact that the Quebec government is à government of millionaires.I don't know of any member being so fabulously wealthy but I do know that Mr.Bennett is a multimillionaire.A Houde regime in the province would be a calamity.We had a change last year but tell me about the change in the price of butter.Take your own interests into consideration before voting.Referring to the trusts, or combines.Mr.Théberge said, \u201cthat is a matter under Federal jurisdiction.why not ask Dr.Moore about it?Do you believe that they will loan you money at 2¢;, The Federal government can't do it so how can they.At the present time farm loans arc handled by the Federal Government which gives the money to the province at 6':.To help the farmers, the Taschereau administration pays 11267 of that interest to reduce the interest rate to the farmers to 5.¢.Mr.Fisher spoke of Mr.Houde being a demagogue and gave a very flattering definition of the word as he being a man \u201cwho walked with the common people;\" that is right insofar as it goes, but, a demagogue is also a man who works not for the people but who works the people for himself.Speaking of cattle which came under the axe due to the T.B.iree areas Mr.Théberge said that the Quebec government was contributing towards this loss but that they would nat have to do so if the Federal government was giving these cattle their proper value.\u201cThe Conservative candidate, Mr.Fisher, said that old people who have been visited with misfortune or family troubles and dependent on the state are separated.the man from the wife.That is true, but remember Old Age Pensions is paid by Ottawa, and despite the fact that Mr.Bennett promised it 100¢, a year ago.he has seen fit to pay only 75\u2018.They have mentioned the Beauhamois Power and one would think from their statements that only the Liberals were guilty.They are sore that they didn't get more money.Dr.Moore should ask his friend Etienne Cartier, Conservative organizer, by how much their coffers were enriched.The speaker said that serious Conservatives were not much concerned in this election for if Houde should perchance gain too many seats in the Opposition this year.they will get a new leader before the next general provincial elections.He continued.\u201cwe are proud of our universities.English and French, McGill, Montreal, Bishops, and Laval.Dr.Moore sald that he had no confidence in the small country school-teacher: well I have and I say that our children are safe in her hands.Mr.Fisher has said that one way to obtain the 25; money for loans to the farmers was that by practising economy in the Dept.of Agriculture they could get a large amount.(Mr.Fisher had said that there were some 90 agronomists getting on an average of $3500 a year).Apparently Mr.Fisher is going to do away with agronomists.Mr.Laurent Barré wno undoubtedly would be the Minister of Agriculture if the Houdists won, says that there will be an agricultural school in every parish, and where will the money for these schools come from unless Dr.Moore gives him some from the unemployment fund, That shows you the inconsistency of the Houdists.\u201cA year ago Conservatives asked your support on a platform of promises.This year another Conservative party is seeking election on the same platform, but don't be fooled.Mr.Blair did not make you any of These foolish promises.He promised that he would see to it that the county of Huntingdon got its share, and he'll o ad Mr.Morrissette who spoke a few minutes took Dr.Moore and his government to task for the Australian treaty and asked the audience if they
