Some Brief Notes on the Canada Temperance Act N.o 1—The Origin of the Act The Canada Temperance Act, -over which much controversy has of late years arisen, w.as formerly popularly known by the name The Scott Act., It is a Dominion statute, originally enacted in 187 8. This was about ten years after Confederation. Under the regime of Upper and Lower .'Canada, Ontario, and Quebec had a local option measure known as the Dunkin Act applicable to villages towns, townships, etc. The Mari times, where temperance sentiment was pronounced, were anxious for a like privilege and it was thought de sirable to have a uniform law. The Canada Temperance Act was the out come of these circumstances. The Canada Temperance Act had wide vogue in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick and for some time in On tario and -parts of Quebec, Its advan tages are that it is a county meas ure (being applicable to counties or cities) and that it is brought in or removed on a simple majority vote of the electors concerned. While for bidding retail sale of liquor within a county, it permits a berwery or dis tillery located within the area to sell in wholesale lots to purchasers residents beyond its bounds. It also permits private individuals to bring In liquor from outside for personal use under certain conditions. Difficulties over responsibility for enforcement as between the pro Provincial and Dominion authorities destroyed the early prestige of the act; but in 1887 under Sir Oliver Mowat an act was passed by the On tario Legislature enjoining all his officers and commissioners to en force with like vigilance the Canada Temperance Act and the Liquor Li cense Law of the province. From that time until Mr. Hepburn’s regime it was considered the duty of all offic ers to enforce the laws. The adop tion of this attitude came too late to ’ revive at that time the lost prestige of the Canada Temperance Act. Its use was discontinued in Ontario and was succeeded in a sliort time by municipal local option. “How’d this happen?

The wife of a minister who- has served his church long and faithful ly, Mrs. Gilmore now finds herself in the closing years of that service, living in a manse where “things grow in the garden if you just throw the seeds in. There is a garden like this belonging to every one of the .26 houses in the village, and every house is occupied. Staffa is ten miles from Mitchel fr, 10 miles from Exeter, 10 miles from St. Marys and 10 miles from Sea forth. Traffic to and from these centres flowa through the hilly Street of the little town, where, de clares Mrs. Gilmore with the en thusiasm of a real fan, the air is light, -pure and delightful. A Worthy Project This may be why the 1-S women who form the Women’s Association of the United church are so active, and so successful in their activities. Mrs. Gilmore, a former member of Middlesex Presbyterial, is the presi dent. The immediate project of the group is the redecoration of the small, attractive brick church, so that inside and out it may be suit able as the centre of the attractive church yard. It is to be cleaned through (not a doubt but what these women will see to that themselves), revarnished and repainted. There is talk of painting the upper walls a clear pastel blue; the church is bright; the windows, are unstained and there is nothing to prevent the full entry of the sun at any time. “And. the decorator suggests a ceiling of silver stars and this is what we will probably have,” Mrs. Gilmore told the Free Press. The money? Well, the W. A. drove a good bargain over an old unused shed in the churchyard. They sold that for $25. They made a sun ray quilt which took exactly 350 hours of work on the part of the members. But they sold each “ray” for two cents and cleared over $40. They hope to sell the finished article for an equal sum. They will make more than this, of course. There are still the famil iar avenues of church concerts, so cials and suppers to be tried. The spirit which prompts the Staffa folk to call their lovely hill a “mountain” finds no endeavor too high. Staffa was formerly called Spring hill. —London Free Press Wins Trinity Scholarship The announcement of Senior Ma triculation Scholarship results has brought good news to St. Marys.

The boy, who lives at Grand Bend, stole a tent last week and was living in grand style until the owner claim ed it, A stern parental lecture fostered an idea that hos at one time or another entered every boy’s head. He decided to run away and be a pirate. “ 'Red’ built a raft, but the deck was bare and too draughty, so on Friday last he stole another tent, erected it on the raft and was about to set sail over the bounding main when the law caught up with him. The trip to sea was cut short, but the lad had a nice' car ride to Goderich, where authorities warned him that further similar conduct would see him placed where all bad 'pirates’ eventually end up. 'Red’ returned to his home quite abashed, the trip to sea forgotten.”—Gode rich Signal Star.
