A YELLOW PERIL BANNED,
Tito Hearst 1'npere (.'diet+ to Oirett
late in the Dominica*.
Many Canadiane have felt In re-
cent yeare that in a country which
wished to keep the ratedo of the peo-
ple decent it was a pity to allow the
eireulation of a certain type of Am-
erican yellow Journal. Uawever, no-
ticing was done to prevent the icn.-
portation of the contaminating Pa-
pers, as our people do not like to take
steps that look like restricting the
liberty of the press. Even after the
war began American yellow journals
that systematically attacked and mis-
represented the umpire to which the
Dominion belongs wore allowed the
Privileges of our mails, though some
of them went so far as to use mourn•
ing borders atter the death of Sir
Roger Casement. The Hearst paper*
did not see anything worthy of
death in the act of a traitor who had
caused tho death of fellow Irishmen
in Germany because they would not
join the Teuton armies, But when
these papers' began to garble British
official despatches they went too far,
and the ban has now been placed
upon the circulation of all the Hearst
papers in the Dominion. For tile
good of the newspaper standards of
Canada, it is to be hoped that the ban
will be continued even atter the end
of the conflict.
The explanation given by the Gov-
ernment of their action is as follows;
"The Hon, T. Chase Casgrain,
Postmaster -General of Canada, has
issued a warrant under the authority
of au order -in -Council, No. 94, As-
sented to on the Gth day of Novem-
ber, 1914, under and in virtue of the
provisions of section 6 of the War
Measures Act, 1914, whereby the
following newspapers known as the
Hearst papers), have been refused
the privilege of the maile in Canada
anti are prohibited front circulation
in Canada in any way—New York
American, New York Sunday Ameri-
can, New York Journal, Boston Am-
ericaii, Boston Sunday American,,,
Chicago Examiner, Chicago Sunday
Examiner, Chicago American, San
Francieadi Examiner, San Francisco
Sunday Examiner, Los Angeles Ex-
aminer, Los Angeles Sunday Exam-
iner, Los Angeles Herald, Atlanta
Georgian, Atlanta American.
"Owing to the garbling of tele-
grams, the British authorities decid-
ed to cut off all facilities for the
transmission of news to the Interna-
tional New Service and all Hearst
papers, and upon examination .of
these papers here similar action is
being taken in Canada. It is consid-
ered desirable that all relations with
Hearst should cease, owing to the
dimer of his papers causing ill -
feeling between the United States
and Canada.
"Under the terms of the order -in -
Council above quoted, no person in
i Canada shall be permitted on and
:tater' Saturday, the 11th day of No-
vember, 1916, to be in possession of
such newspapers or of any issues
thereof already published or here-
after published, and further, any
person in possession of any such
newspapers shall be liable to a fine
nol;'exceeding five thousand dollars
or imprisonment for any term not
eeding five years, or to both fine
and fliwison.ment."

appreciation of all our members for
your untiring cif,trts for the success
of the Church's work and sincerely
hope that the coming yeare will afford
you even greater opportunitie6 of
service.
We know that your service is not
for tangible reward and that you will
appreciate theeerfew words of recog:
ninon and feel assured that the Mae -
tete,' reward will be much more
worthy` and. His . "Well done" bring
greater joy than ,these few words we
have addreeeed to yeti. ' " w

Historic italic Partly Destroyed.
The oldest relic of York County
narrowly escaped destruction a few
days ago. It was An apple free on
North Yonge street. To Canadians
the tree was an important link with
the past, for It was planted by Major-
General Sir Isaac Brock on June 17,
1812. just one day before Congress
at Washington declared war on Brit-
ish North America. At the time when
Sir Isaac officiated at this event, over
a hundred years ago, he was on a fly-
nng visit to York, having just come
from Fort George, Niagara, where tie
was making arrangements to resist
the American invasion which termin-
ated two years later. Since that
eventful ,,day when Sir Isaac Brock
planted the apple tree It has been an
object of veneration to the residents
of North York, About ten years ago
the tree died, but owing to the his-
toric associations a cement founda-
tion was laid about the, bole. On a
Saturday afternoon a thoughtless
schoolboy climbed thevenerable•relio
and filling the hollow bole with old
grass anti leaves dropped a lighted
match therein. • The flames ignited
the trunk of the tree and within a
few minutes a brisk fire was burn-
ing. Before the blaze was detected
lt:h.ad gained a good hold on the tree
and the tire wagons arrived just in
time to extinguish the flames ands
save the tree from total destruction.
Wingham's Oldest Resident
We learn that the Historical Sketo
of Wingham as reprinted in last week's
Anvneas has overlooked the _fact that
Mr. Wm. Cornyn was really the first
resident of Wingham. He built the
first house on the sits where Sacra d
Heart Church now stands. Mr,
Cornyn was a resident of town four
years before hie father who came
about the same time as Ned Farley.
May he live long to eu,l ry the title of
"Wingham's Oldest Resident."

or a total of $380,330, which the town
officials say will be increased by this
year's assessment by between $40,000
and $50,000.
AItogether, we can epitomize the
past history and present condition of
Wingham id no fairer way than by
repeating verbatim an extract from
the sketch of an extensive traveller
and descriptive writer, who says;
"Ou all sides stretch away a country
rich in every agricult ural resource,
with abundance .of water for all
purposes, including the most, ample
motive power for machinery, The
County of Huron le just recognized ae
one of the fairest, most fruitful sectione
of Ontario;' A supe rior class of
settlers have rapidly peopled Ito
aforetime wilderness; the virgin soil
has been made to return its he avieet
harvest; smiling fields have supplanted
trackless forests; and in the develop-
ment of the country came the support
of the -town. It is apparent to every
one that here was and le an
oppottunity to build up a most thriv-
ing centre of trade; and that the
opportunities have not thus far been
trifled with is evidenced by the fact
that the aggregate of mercbantile
transactions have year by year shown
a proportionate increase with the ex-
ceptionally rapid growth of the
population: and the town now, both
a4 regarde the total amount of business
done and the character of its businese
houses, need not fear comparison with
any of its° older rivals throughout
Ontario.
Can't Afford to Stop it,
