Spirits Ration
EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 2nd, 1944
COMMENCING October 2nd, 1944, and until further
notice, every individual permit holder will be permitted
to purchase monthly one bottle of spirits (25 or 26 ounces)'
or two half bottles as available.
As a result of the restrictions imposed by the Dominion
Government under the Wartime Alcoholic Beverages Order
P.C.11374, it was necessary to reduce the monthly ration of
spirits to 13 ounces to assure adequate supplies of spirits until
the end of the year. In increasing the ration it should be
explained to the public that unless the restrictions imposed
by the Dominion Government are removed a similar restric-
tion will be necessary again next year, although the Board,
except for the Dominion Restriction, would be able to make
available for distribution stocks of spirits in excess of the
present ration.
In any event, however, the ration becoming effective on
October 2nd can be maintained throughout the winter months,
so it is hoped that the public will co-operate by not buying in
excess of actual requirements.

LIQUOR CONTROL BOARD OF ONTARIO
Victor T. Goggiit
CHIEF COMMISSIONER
C.P.R. Express Finds and Ships Reindeer for Hollywood.
G eorge McMurray, traffic
solic-
itor for the Canadian Pacific
Express Company at Edmonton,
Alta., was the "Santa Claus" who
provided four reindeer for Para-
mount Pictures in Hollywood when
that company had to have them
for scenes in "Road to Utopia",
forthcoming film on the Alaska
gold rush, starring Bob Eve,
Bing Crosby and Dorothy Lamour.
He had a recollection of "a
fellow somewhere in SaSkateliew-
an driving trained reindeer "when
the word went out that the film
capital had to have atmosphere
for the picture. He checked with
the publicity office of the Saskat-
chewan Government in Regina
and found J. J. calks of Por-
cupine Plain, between Hudson
Junction and Tisdale, was the
"fellow". He had nine reindeer,
all trained.
Having found his man, Mr.
McMurray made arrangrients
to ship immediately and in the
top picture the Canadian Pacific
Express man had his picture
taken with Mr. Dalke (left) and
the unusual cargo. Also provid-
ed for "Road to Utopia", but
naturally segregated from the
reindeer for shipping, were 27
sleigh clOgs, with the lower pic-
ture showing some of the huskies
being trained at Ryan's Farm at
St. Albert near Edmonton,
Mr. McMurray's claim always
has been "the Canadian Pacific
Express can ship anything" and
the reindeer and the huskies he
lined up on this assignment makes
it no idle boast. The reindeer—
five-year-old Cupid, a lady; and
Dunder, Prancer and Dancer,
males aged six, two and three—
required a specially heated car
and their diet of turnips, carrots,
potatoes, cabbages and grain also
called for special care.
The reindeer 'Fere available be-
cause Mr. Dalke, their owner,
refused to believe those who said
it was impoosible to train and
harness the creatures. He has
dehorned the four who fill the
Hollywood bill, an omission which
the property department likely
will remedy. The reindeer must
be back from the United States
in 29 days, according to the first
permit issued on them.
