God- ifrey, • K.'C., ISecurities Commissioner tfor Ontario. • In the neighborhood of 40 broloer- age odltves in the ;provinee, doing a lucrative business in worthless seiciur-, titin, or ,who were using unethical bpJ dishonest methods of selling have Closed their doors. Over 100 high- pressure stock salesmen, most o� them imported crooks, have left for parts unknown or have been prose- cuted. Thousands sof dollars have !been recovered for investors and a general clean-up made (of a large lumber of shady deals where the average investor did not have a re- mote chance of even recovering ' a part of his investment. Siper crooks with ,suites in the larger hotels who employed numer- ous "front" men have a sed opera- tions, and departed for New York or !Chicago. Two months ago 96 of these crooks and racketeers were register- ed at a large hotel in Toronto. This number has been reduced to five who are holding on vainly hoping against hope that they may be able to resume their activities. The passing and scrupulous en- forcing of a few 'simple regulations diave hada salutor effect that will lhave a material influence in really helping the mining industry in On- tario to come into its own. The use of the telephone to Priv- ; rate residences either locally ors. by long distance has been forbidden to all brokerage houses. Tipster let- ters and sheens • have ,positively been forbidden. License fees for broker- age ,ho:uses have 'beer; set at $100 and sales:rtsn's registrations placed at y10."• In addition, the ,personnel of every firm has received a -thorough combing and every principal or sales - mien with a shi d'y reputation weeded ,out. A ban has also been placed on the sale of vendor stock ('known among. the fraternity as "the, gravy"). In future vender stock cannot- be sold without the authority, of the Securi- ties Comlmisslon. 'New . York, Michigan and other Mates in the Union, have given pre- ferred attention to the mining stock racket over the ,past few years, and !have passed a great number of com- plicated blue sky laws that have in some cases proven a detriment to the elusive and wily stock 'racketeer, bit they are still operating in those ter- ritories, probably not as openly as ever, but 'still making money. In two short months the strict enforcement of one simple regulation has practic- :rally driven the fraternity out of On= tario. Very little money has been spent on prosecutions. • Jails are not papular with the racketeer and if he is nipped in the bud he usually de- parts hurriedly and ceases to be a menace to the community. Mr. Godfrey's motto of "get the crook before he gets the money" is proving most effective in not only saving nrfon'ey to the investing public, but also in diverting promotion fund's to actual development of our mineral resources. "'Call up or get in touch with your local 'Crown Attorney, if you feel you ]have been, or are about to be gyp, - ped," Mr. Godfrey said. "Give him the name of the salesman, the firm, or the stook and you will get protec- tion." Mr. Godfrey feels that we have in Ontario one of the greatest mining fields in the world, and that every dollar subscribed for new raining ven- turres ,should be used for actual de- velopment work. "The mining broker and promoter is, of course, entitled to his expens- es and a fair selling one," said' 'Mr. Godfrey, 'abut we will not permit him to grab everything and leave the public holding the bag." Curling in .Ontario Bonspeil Three rinks from this district are eomipeting • in the eighth annual On- tario Bonspeil held in Toronto this week. The Wingham rink were Dr. A. 1W Irwin, T.

Most of them, ' how,ev'er, 'would give' you an address of a friend of theirs, maybe eight or ten blocks away. We would drive there to find thein all filled too.. However we kept going and at last about 7.15 we got roonis in a lovely home with very fine people:\ They told ,use'wthere their favorite plaice to eat was, with home. cooking and believe me we weren't long get- ting there. 'Certainly did enjoy that linleal and everybody felt happy again. We went back to our rooms, had a bath and I 'studied a map of,lkliami for an hour, so 'I would know how to get around.. Friday morning we drove around the town, had dinner, then drove out to the 'beach. I guess it is 5 miles long and just covered with bathers and sun bathers as far as you could see, and 75 per cent. of them sure are tanned. We spent most of the afternoon just driving around seeing the iron- derfui 'homes on bhe beach, mostly like mlansionas: 'Conning back to the !mainland about ,six, [we had • supper and walked around for a while, as we weretired riding. Saturday morn- ing we called on some friends and visited 'a bird' sanctuary where they were mostly tropical birds, also white ab peacocks and .ourt one dozen. pink Flamingos, which are like a crane, only larger and taller. I don't think I ever saw anything more ,beautiful or graceful as they walked around in a big shallow pond of water o.n a lawn right in the heart of the city. In the afternoon we drove to Bay Front Park, a beautiful place. to sit and rest among the palms and listen to radio"and bands. From there we drove through Cocoanut Grove (a new suburb) just Hull of lovely homes. This is where James Deering, the owner of ethe Deering 1 arvestting 1Vlachine Co., ;built his- !mansion which ..covers 300 acres of tropical trees and lagoons and I guess the main lawn is one of the most beautiful' in the world. It costs $2 to go in and visit„ so we just looked it over from the outside. We drove on south about a mile to the U.S. coast guard air base and the Pan American Airways station, which is'w•onderful. I just butted in with a bunch who were given permis- sion to go insidle orae of the largest sea planes, the Norwegian Clipper, which has four large motors and pro= pellors and- carries 24 passengers, as well as mail and express. It weighs 91/2 tons and will carry 9% tons more —19 tons at 90 to 110 miles an hour. From there we drove to Coral Gab- le's,. another fashionable suburb of Mialmi with more beautiful homes and one of the largest and most fash- ionable hotels, 'the Builtmore. It is a gorgeous place, built up high.. The front doorway must be up 20 feet with. an elevated drive up to it and men in uniform at the door to meet you. I decided we had better stop at the Builtmrore, so drove up this drive but as the doorman came out to greet us, I just changed gears and drove on. I suppose he was disap- pointed as four more customers would mean about $100 a day, at least. We drove around, saw a lot more beauti- ful homes, •then the Venetian swim- ming pool which is a beautiful spot, just like in old Venice I suppose. We were taken to the Biscayne race" track Saturday night to see the Greyhound dogs race, which was one of .our greatest thrills. Those dogs certainly do travel. Vincent Lopez and his orchestra were there to en- tertain between' races and his pro- gram was easily worth the price of admission. It was nearly 12 when we left the track and we all went to a !wonderful Spanish garden—Cabaret —for lunch. They had singers and dancers who put on a fine floor show for about an hour and a half. We had a busy day and were tired by the tifive we got home. On Sunday a coral fi's'hing boat came in with a load of coral which we inspected. Divers go down in 40 or 50 feet of Water and search for it on the ocean 'bottom. It is quite sol- id, like stone, and it.is necessary to break it off the rock it grows on with a heavy crow bar. The divers only wear a head piece as they have to have their arms free to"Work. They had about $1,004 worth of coral of twelve different kin -ds and one of the divers explained all about .each kind to us and how it grows. It was all a dirty brown, but it is washed and bleached 171 the sun about 40 days; DON'T RISK BAKING FAILURES!

We left there Tuesday Morn- ing!to cross Flb1'ida again and drove through prairie country with very few trees and long grass with a lot of small inland lakes, wild cattle and hogs, also lots of ,prairie chickens, cranes and' pelicans. About two gas stations were all we saw for nearly 75 miles ,to Lake.Wales and the Bok Tower which was 'built by Ediward Bok on the highest point in Florida. The, tower is 205 feet high, built of marble and is called -the singing tow- er as it has ti carillion of seventy- one ;bells, the. largest 11 tons, the smallest 12 pounds. It was Lincoln's' birthday and they played a loot of special Music at the tower that day; there must have been 10,000 people there. The grounds around it, are very ;beautiful and with a gradual slope in every direction. They say it is just like ,Heaven and I tell you it certainly makes you thank Heaven for • • all the 'natural beauty there is albout here. This is also the centre 'of the citrus fruit farming .district whish means lots ,of grapefruit, oranges, lemons and tangerine. There are orchards as far as you can see -in every direction —all planted,' in a ,straight line for miles and , you can look down the rows, and as far as you can see is just light sandy soih-no grass grow- ing at all, and all the trees kept so nice. It is a very pretty town, well kept and everything. so clean. We had 'dinner there about two, then came through Plant City, the home of the southern .strawberries. There were acres and acres of them and fellows along the road selling them. We bought two boxes ,for 25 cents from the first; then they were 10 cents each and then 2 for 15, so we got stung by buying too soon, but they were lovely.
