A New Pwetim•
Ontario motor license plates this
year have introduced a name that
may revive the interest in dictionar-
ies almost as much as crossword puz
ales did a few years ago. The two
letters provide exercise for ingenious
minds. E.J., most common on mark-
ers here, might stand for - Empty Jug
again it might stand for Empty Jug,
again it might mean Elastic Jaw, or
Elegant Junk, or it might easily be
the old song, "Eliza Jane." : The
story is told of a Sarnia motorist
who objected to having a license
marker like B.C. 54. "You see" he
said, "Peoule might think I was dis-
playing the age of my rather old,-
fashioned
ldfashioned car."—Ex,
Action Taken to Unseat
Reeve Higgins. ,
A hearing was given on Tuesday
of last week in an action taken by
Owen Geiger, of Hensall, for the un-
seating of Robert Higgins, Reeve of
Hensall, on the ground that the lat-
ter is disqualified by reason of the
receipt of emoluments as a member
of the old age pension board of the:
county. Mr. Higgins' contention is
that he is not an officer or employee
of the county, but merely a commit-
tee man, receiving pay for committee
meetings in the same way as the

cion and other committees of the co-
unty council. In December last a
I .statement was 'issued - by the Attorn-
ey -General of Ontario to the effect'
that in the view of the Department
members of pension ,boards were nal.
disqualified for election, and this
was .supplemented by a promise hat,
if the seat of any member -elect were
attacked on this ground, legislation
would be enacted to cover the situat-
ion. A bill has since been introduced
in the Legislation to validate the pos-
ition of members of councils whoa=
also members of an old age pension
board. In -the proceedings at Os-
goode Hall, J. G. Stanbury, of Ex-
eter, appeared for Mr. Geiger, and
F. C. S. Evans of Toronto, for Reeve
Higgins. Inview of the remedying
legislation before the Legislature the
hearing was adjourned sine die to
await disposition of the bill, on the
understanding that if the bill does
not pass written arguments will be ac
cepted the point in issue being clearly
defined by aifdivats filed.
High Court.
The winter assizes were held in
Goderich last week, before Justice
Jeffrey. Court :opening on Tuesday
afternoon. There were three cival
actions on the Fist and two criminal
cases. Mr. A. C. Heighington, of Tor-
onto was the Crown prosecutor. Don-
ald McKinnon, of Hensall, was tried
on the. charge of theft of money
from T. C. Joynt, in whose store at
Hensall the accused was employed
for several years. After evidence
had been given on two counts, one
involving the theft of $1, the other
the theft of $5, McKinnon pleaded
guilty and was sentenced to three
months in the county jail. No evid-
ence was presented on the third count
that accused had taken money at
various times in the last two years.
MeKinnon's theft was -' detected by
means of marked bilis used by priv-
ate detectives from Toronto in pur-
chasing articles from McKinnon in
Joynt's store. Several witnesses
gave character evidence in behalf of
McKinnon.—An unusual case in the
civil list was that of McIlveen vs.
Pnblis Utilities Commission of Clin-
ton. One day in July last while
Stinson McIlveen, an eight-year old
boy, with other children was playing
around the Hydro substation at Clin-
ton he came in contact with .a high
tensionwire and was burned so bad-
ly that it was necessary to amputate
his left man and left leg. In addition
the young lad lost the use of the fin-
gers of his right hand. • The boy's
father W. G. Mcilveen, sued for
$25,000 en behalf of `the son and. for
,$2;000 for hihtseif for expenses and
for extra care and attention made
necessary by the injury to his son.
In tnfence it ryas contended that
th s'e was no negligence on the pert
of the utilities commlrsion and tb.st
flu. limey was a trespasser. -
