What good would any law be if it were not for the prohibitions 2 Statute breakers dont like the penalties of course, It's no easy job to "fence in" Old Booze but the hearty support of every oppooeut of the pablic bar will fleetly throttle it if they realize the danger to the youth in coming hays. Because a law is violated is nu reason for its repeal, rather a call for more urgent enforcetneutand penal- ties increased that will teach lessons of respect for statutory enac'meets. The 0.

Wingham District W. M. S. Convention Annual Mooting Held at Lucknow Annual Cothveutioa of Kingham Dietriee Women'', Missionary Society took place Thursday, May 8th, after- uonn urld everting in the Lucknow Methodist Chureb, and, there was a f large crowd present, 21 out of a total 1 of 23 auxiliaries were represented at Cloliveutinrr, and 0 out of 9 (bloke and Bands were iepreeented. 180 dele• i gates registered. Afternoon session was presided over by Mire. W. H.

"How to Make the Mission Circle Interesting and Instcuctive" was dis- owned by Mise Padiield, Orange Hill, end a splendid address on "Christian Stewardship" was contributed by Mrs. (Rev.) O, E.

TROTFKY, be of world -war notoriety, thinks that factories sbould be once more let agoing to manufacture war chemicals, looking toward their use in days to come, If fire and brimstone are needed perhaps Mr. Trotsky might arrange with his old friend Clouty and have him pass over tbe right to use some of his develisb chemicais, sometimes re ferred to. General Sherman said in bis i day that "War was bell" and we guess it has a better right for this strong ap- pelation today than in the bygones, A wxois lot of the returned soldier boys were better fighters than farmers and as a eonsequeuce, we notice 4433 vet- erans have abandoned their farms. Those assisted under the Settlement Act numbered 21743. In a good many cases it was a waste of good money with- out profit to anybody, unless to owners of some farms who were reported to have made a fair haul. The wonder to 135 le that as many stuck to their job as have, as in our judgment, it is not tbe best way to recompense many men.

Cater- bout, President of the Lucknow 1 Auxiliary, made a neat address of Welcome to Convention, which was happily responded to by Mrs. (lamer - on, Bethel. Greetings were aiau , brought to Convention by Mrs. (Rev.) MoOalium from Presbyterian Auxi- liary and Mrs. (Rev.) Go18u, Kinloss Presbyterian Auxiliary. Rev, J. H. Osterhout, B. A., B.

At the end of this period, Cyrus, Ring of Per- besiegee Babylon, Belehezzar, the reoklese and riot. ous King of Babylon, deoreee a feast in honor of the Baby- lonian gods and commands the Jewe to attend. When Zerubbabel, the Governor of the Jewish captives, hears the decree, he goes to the camp of Cyrus and advisee him to attack, On hie return Zerubbabel is captured and im- prisoned but set free by Oyeets, who Sade; access to the dungeon in the guise of a wine seller, The night of the feast comes. The King, inflamed by wine, calla for the holy vessels robbed from the Temple at Jerusalem. Dur• ing the scene of high revelry that follows, strange writing appears mysteriously on the wall. Belehazzar'e wise men try to read the writing but in vain, and Nitoaris .advises that Daniel be called, He cones and declares the hidden meaning to be that Belshazzar is weighed in the balance and found wanting, and that the kingdom is divided and given to the Medea and Persians, Daniel is elotbed in scarlet and proclaimed third ruler. In the night of the feast Cyrus marches into the city by way of the river gates, bursts 104/ the palace and slays Belshazzar. THE PLAY ACT 1. QUEEN'S GARDEN 1 Solo and Trio ...Brightly Gleaming .

A big season is anticipated, especially by the Canadian Pacific steamships, whose • vessels on the St. Lawrence route this year will exceed 197,000 gross tons. Vanebuver this season has beaten Portland, the.great wheat port of the Northwest and formerly the great wheat port of the Pacific: Portland includes flour in its wheat totals, Vancouver does not. Accord- ing to the Portland press the Amer- ican city has moved over 29,000,000 bushels of wheat to date. Vancou- ver, in the same period, shipped 38,- 000,000 bushels, exclusive of a very considerable quantity of flour.
