I•r's a pity that Brother King and

DAILY motor accident is recorded with

9 out of to accidents are caused by too

CANADA'S Wembley Exhibition is on

WHY should not the restaurant in the
Dominion Parliament building at Ot•
tawa be self sustaining? $7.000 ap•
pears in the supplementary estimate to
assist in its maintenance. Surely the
M. P.'s and officials are receiving suf-
ficient compensation to put the restaur-
ant out of the free soup kitchen class.
CANADIAN Senate is autocratic be-
cause they know the electors cannot
oust thein from their job. An elective
Senate for a term of years would curb
this aristocracy and put a body of men
in this Chamber who would be more in
touch with the people. Some say elec-
tions would throw the Senate into poli-
ties. Wonder if the present appoint-
ments are not about as straight politics
as can be found.

THURSDAY. October z3rd, is the date
set for Voting on the Ontario Plebiscite.
It is a much more important event than
some folk think, as on the verdict on
that date will hinge legislation that will
either restore booze and the bar or lead
to continuance of the 0. T. A. with Dec-
essary improvements pointing to total
Prohibition, It is up to churches and
homes of tbs land to carefully and con-
sistently do their duty so that they will
not be chargeable with neglecting a
great opportunity to defeat the spread

FOR many years there was a dearth of
school teachers and difficulty was ex-
perienced in some quarters to keep
schools open but the scene bas shifted
and toddy there appears to be a surplus
of pedagogues, with the chances that all
will not get schools this Fall. One
reason for the extra supply is accounted
for in the feat that salaries boosted dur-
ing the period when teachers were
scarce and consequently a cumber of
those who purposed dropping out con-
tinued but in case of a slump in pay
they would probably change their oc-
cupation or attend school in pursuit of
higher standing.

BOOTLEGGING
Drug Bootlegging in Montreal has
grown to be such a menace to public
morale and the sanity and life of the
citizens, a "Bowies Gallery" of drug
bootleggers and drug slaves, has been
y
instituted. Ever man and woman

arrested for selling or for having nar-
cotic drugs in his of her possession is
photographed.
A 20 year sentence was passed on a
drug bootlegger who sold a fatal dose
of morphine to a lad. A young wo-
man was Bent to prison for 5 years for
injecting heroin into the arta of a boy
who died from the effects of it.

have purchased the right to be Dis-

"ALIEN BOOTLEGGERS"
Our Ontario Moderation League
could give pointers to the United
States Government on their Immigra-
tion Act. There were no Alien Boot-
leggers until that Act was paseed.
Why ?
Because there was no profit in smug-
gling Italians and Poles and Russians,
etc. into United States territory, until
their entry was forbidden, Then it
became a mine of wealth to the
"Scafflaws."
And so great is the profit in Alien
Smuggling, that New York Prohibi-
tion Agents tell us many of the Rum
