CANADI;►ti, N N TR NAL(T-199) d Q4{ING&NEWS oi.HUhCl 1� Aaron Sapiro, who is under indict- ment at Chicago with Al. Capone for operating a laundry racket, is a very clever lawyer and organizer. He will be remembered in the west for his work in organizing grain pools. Ei- ther as a party to an action, or as a witness, he came under examination, or cross-examination by Isaac Pit- blade, ICCC. of Winnipeg, To impart to the jury that Sapiro is a Jew, • Mr. Pitblado asked: You name, please? Sapiro, And your first name is Aaron? Yes, Isaac. It was he who sued Berry Ford for about a million dollars damage for alleged libel or slander of the Jews in a series of articles which ,appeared in the Dearborn Independent after- 'wards published in book form under the title "The Intenational Jew." ,It 'never went to trial. Mr. Ford made. :an abject apology in which he paid, profuse compliments to the offended race. •Sapiro's action was settled out of octet. Only a few know syhat price was paid and they wont 'tell, but you may be sure it was enough to put Sapiro beyond the reach of want, except that sortof want which cannot be satisfied. At any rate there was no pressing necessity driv ing him into cahoots with Comrade Capone to apply the muscle to men engaged. in the wholesome business of washing dirty linen. • The Amalgamated Civil Servants of Canada at their biennial convention, rap patronage and you may bet, that most of then know patronage when they see it through .having used it when the ygot their appointments to the: service.

C=lad New York Irishmen who blamed England for interfering with Ireland will be wondering now maybe, why they should interfere with Cuba. One should interfere as little of possible with another but nations as well as individuals sometimes find that their own peace, order and good govern- ment aro menaced by turbulence and strife among neighbors, Then, too, a nation has the duty •cf protecting its own property there as well as its nationals, although these should be a minor consideration. If these na- tionals want to live in another coun- try they should be willing to take their chances. Increased duties on cosmetics have increased the price but have appar- ently not decreased the consumption. Girls with perfect complexions still use them, not realizing that to gild refined gold, to paint the lily, to throw a perfume over the violet and so on, is wasteful and ridiculous ex- cess besides being decidedly expen- sive. When beauty has faded or the complexion is muddy there is a Use for rouge, and carmine and pow- der, but the only money not wasted on school -girl complexions is that part of the price that goes t6 the government. It needs the money more than the complexion needs cosmetics. The life of a motor truck, says a railway official is four years. From this statement of fact we deduce that the business doesn't pay, but, un- fortunately for railways, the truckers have not the same keen sense of logic. The Mayor of a Canadian city de- nounces the lobby. When a citizen urges aldermen to do Something they want to do he is only showing an active and legitimate interest in civic affairs, but he is a lobbyist if he in- terferes to prevent them doing what- they hatthey want to do or to get them to do what they don't want to do. The Amalgamated Civil Servants of Canada have passed a resolution favoring full political and civic rights for themselves. This, together with the fact that they are all jolly good fellows, nobody can deny. Yet there aro instances . where civil servants; though amalgamated, would be un- wise to seek other political or civic offices which the public might regard as incompatible with the positions they now hold. For instance, it would not do for a civil servant to be also a mehnber of parliament, and the law eery properly prevents . it. And that law is not going to be changed so that civil servants may have full pol- itical rights, COLBORNE COLBORNE Mr. and Mrs. Henry Pettman of OWen Sound visited with the farm- er's •brother, Mr. Walter Pettm n a, one day last 'week.

AN AMUSING INCIDENT —MAN ORDERS OWN ARREST Mistake in Identity Leads to Unusual Experience for Racehorse Owner From Lucan on Way Home from Milverton Everybody makes mistakes, even the police. In this case it was mis- taken identity and around this mis- taken identity tis spun a: yarn of an interesting series of events which occurred Friday night. B. Hodgins, a race horse owner from Lucan, was in Milvet•ton on Friday. He left Friday evening by car, with his horse in a trailer at the rear. Ai the back seat of the car was a companion who had been "in - sledging" a little too freely. Everything went well until the car reached Sebringville. The pas- senger in the back seat told the driver that there was a flat tire on the trailer. Mr. Hodgins investigat- ed and when out on the road his corns panion hopped into the front, seat and drove away. The owner of the horse and trail- er telephoned police in Stratford, both city and provincial to be on the look- out for the car and trailer at the Er- ie street limits. He then hired a Sebringville garageman to drive him to Stratford and on arrival here found the car, trailer and horse on Erie street, near the War Memorial But there was no sign of the other gentleman. Mr. Hodgins took possession, and started out Erie street for home. P. C. Tom Snaith was at the city limits as per instructions. Along came the car, trailer and horse and so the police officer promptly stopped him and brought Hedging to the police station. High County Constable R. J. Beatty and Officer Bert Moore were called and the natter was clear- ed up and Mr. Hodgins started once more for Lucan, his home. Statford Beacon -Herald. ST.

Twenty -First Eucharistic Congress Held at Gode- rich on Tuesday An impressing .solemnity per- vaded the scene when the twenty-first Eucharistic 'Congress of the Diocese' of London opened here Tuesday at ten o'clock, on the spac- ious lawns of St. Peter's church. With the sacred edifice as a background, an outdoor altar had been placed in front of thechurch over which hung a large canopy festooned with the pa, pal colors of yellow and white. Flow- ers, papal pennants and flags were everywhere. High dignitaries of the church were present,.their robes of purple, and the richly embroidered vestments of the clergy .generally, adding a touch of brilliancy to the colorful ceremony. As the bells of St. Peter's rang out, little girls, elad in white and carrying baskets filled with flowers, preceded the clergy as they made their way from the con- vent to the'places alloted to them b'e- fore the•altar. Throughout the ser- vice, the vast concourse of people of every denomination remained silent and reverent while the Pontificia] High Mass was being sung by Bish- op Kidd, of London, who was assisted by Rev. Fr. McCardie, of Kingsbridge, as deacon, and Rev. T. P. Hussey, of Seaforth, as sub -deacon. The singing was in charge of Rev. Fr. Briston, Professor of Church music, St. Peter'!" Seminary, London, who led the clergy Choir, acocmpanied by Cecil Borro, organist of St. Peter's Cathedral, London. An inspiring and forceful sermon was preached by Rev. John Gibbons, of Stratford, whose text was based on St. John 6th chapter, and the words: "He that eaten my flesh, asd drinketh my blood—shall have everlasting Iife." After the Mass, the procession of the Blessed Sacrament proceeded from the church headed by the chil- dren of the Separate School, the girls, with flowing veils and wearing white leading, followed by the long files of the Knights of Columbus, number- ing over three hundred. Immediately after casae over 400 members of the Catholic Women's League and the Young Ladies' Sodality, then the clergy, repeating, the "Hail Mary" and responses, followed by the col- orful canopy surrotmding Bishop Kidd and his attendants. The procession moved slowly along Caledonia Terrace to the temporar- ary altar,en the grounds of Judge Costello, where before the vast throng of kneeling people, the ceremony of benediction was performed by His Lordship, followed by singing by the children, who had been carefully trained. The procession re -firmed and proceeded along North street to the ehm'ch, The clergy were dined at Rotel Sunset. and later held a conference in the same hotel. Afternoon Devotion At 3 p.m. a special service of de- votion was held for the children, whore Rev, Father McCarthy, of St. Peter's Seminary, London, delivered the sermon. The children were seat- ed in the pews directly in front of the altar. Fr. McCarthy, who is a former Goderich boy, talked in a fatherly 'Way to his young congrega- tion, giving them much kindly advice, commending then] "to the all loving watching care of Jesus." Two selec- tions were sung beautifully by the children. The closing exercises of the Con- gress took place at 7.30 in the even- ing when Rev. Cyril Doyle, of St. Martin's, London, preached. St. Pet- er's Church was crowded to the doers for thieservice, many people stand- ing in the vestibules throughout. Rev. Fr. Doyle admonished his hearers to attend frequently the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist. Many moral and social evils surounding us today can only be cast out by the divine rem- edy --]the Saviour of Man. "Let the Congress be not transitory, but pro- duce a permanent influence and force on you," lie concluded, A solemn benediction was given by Rt Rev. L. M.

Jacques Vatillard, is that Canadian girls are so'. pretty they seem to have just stopped out of some lavish advertise- ment.

Roy Munnings of Goderich, charged with manslaugh- ter.' at the assizes yesterday, termin- ated rather suddenly after the crown had dosed its case. Ire was found not guilty by+the jury on the instruc- tions of Mr. Justice Garrow. Munnings, alleged driver of the truck, was charged with manslaugh- ter after the vehicle struck and kil- led William Reade, local street clean, er, on King street east, on the night] of April 5. e - There was no evidence showing tri` that any witness saw 1V1unnings in the truek or saw him get out of it. Police evidence on interview with Munnings shortly after the accident was not admitted, as it was not prov- ed that Munnings had been given warning making it perfectly clear that he was under arrest and that what he said might be held against him should he be defendant in a crim- inal action.
