A decision whieh is of considerable interest to counties which are under the Canada Temperance Act was hen= did down by Mr. Justice Sutherland at Os code I ! i onSaturday las t. It hasb .been custovtely, during the past year or so for inspectors to use Clause .1411 of the Ontario Liquor Act enabling magistrates to impose a fide of ff0 for first, $e0 for second and $60 for third offense upon any- one found intoxicated in C-.T.A: 'ter- ritory. This has • been done with the approval of the attorney -general and the license department but recently this clause was attacked and an ap- peal. was made in the case of . Rex Vs. Scott of Seaforth to the higher court. The following decision was giv- en : iv -en: Rex vs. Scott—F. Il. Thompson, K.G. moved an order prohibiting the police magistrate at Seaforth from. proceeding to hear or try a certain charge preferred by John Torrance be- fore him against John Scott for that he was on or about the 4th day of March 1916 in an intoxicated con- dition h1 a public place"in Seaforth, where no licenses are issued, contra- ry to provision of section 141 of the Ontario License Act." J. R. Cart-. weight acted for the Crown. Judge- meut—"I am of opinion that section 141 of the Liquor License Act as amended is tetra vires of the Ontario Legislature, has not been superseded'' by the Canada Temperance Act, and that the motion on all grounds must be dismissed. The will motion � 'I t ltl tore - fore .be refused with costs"," Hotels Under Prohibition. The frequent assertion that the loss of the bar means ruin to hotel- keepers is dealt with in .a recent number of The Hotel Men's. World, and 0. M, Wiibrite, manager of the Midway Hotel, Emporia, Kansas, tells his experience. He says "With a feeling at first that nothing would take the place of the bar pro- fits, after thirty, years' observation we feel that life in a community where all the evil effects of liquor have been wiped out at least bal- ances the bar profits. , Experience teaches us that liquor -free people have more earning capaqity ; have the money, too, and do make us better patrons; also that local pat- ronage of the respectable class in- creases—a class that would shun hotels if a bar were permitted." It is suggested that the bar be replaced by a cafeteria, ice cream parlor,, or tea and coffee parlor, and it is claim- ed, as temperance men have argued, that in the end the loss of the bar Is really an asset to the hotel, We think this twill be found tate in most parts of Canada where hotels are needed,—Christian Guardian. Don't Impose on the Red Cross. An idea seems to be prevalent in some quarters that the Red Cross Association not only will but ought to take the responsibility of for- warding to Individual soldiers at the front parcels seat by friends of the said soldiers. The Red Cross As sociation was originally formed for the purpose of caring for the sick or wounded soldiers and that is still its great function. The man who is still fighting in the trenches has no claim upon its services. As a mat- ter of fact the Association has en- deavored to comply With the request of relatives who have sent parcels through this source directed to in- dividual soldiers at the front but they have no means of doing so ex- cept by parcel post, which means could be as easily used bythe origin- al sender, and it costs time and money which should be used in other directions, The Red Cross Associa- tion makes an urgent request, there- fore, that no parcel directed to an individual be 'sent them as they can- not undertake to forward same, They believe that this has only to be un derstood by the people, many of whore do not seem to fully under- stand the functions of the .Red Cross and imagine it to be a sort of a forwarding agency. .
