On May 24th Mr. Fitton was at Hensall for the celebration and carried up pas­ sengers doing a fairly good business during the day. He returned to Exeter at night and on Friday morn­ ing circled the town several times. Mr, Fitton learned to fly .in Detroit and a few weeks ago took out a Can­ adian license and secured a position with the London Air Transport^ Co. On and ton the tween the W. C. T. U. The regular meeting of the W. T. U. was held in James St. church on Monday, May 28th, the president presiding, and Mrs. Amy, the evan­ gelistic sup’t. conducting the devo­ tional exercises. Communications were read from Mesdames Beavers and Mollard expressing appreciation for kindness shown by the Union. It was decided to send an additional sum to the Budget Fund making the year’s contribution fifty dollars. Some interesting facts taken from the clip-sheet were the following Comparative figures for the Ontario Temperance Act and the Liquor Con­ trol 'Act were quoted as given by Attorney-General Price. For the first five months under the L. C. A. there were 485, convictions of drunken- drivers and 76 others arrested but not convicted, while for the last six months xinder the O. T, A. there were 157 convictions for this offence with 26 others arrested but not con­ victed, an increase of over three hundred drunken drivers under the L. C. A. An encouraging fact was heard from Manitoba, where the Provincial' Government has created the position of Dictator of Temper­ ance Education for the province and have appointed Mr. W, D. Bailey, B. A., to fill it. Manitoba is the first, province in the British Empire to take this advanced step. Another very joyful item was the following; The Catholic church, with a few notable exceptions, has taken no pronounced attitude on the drink question, but a few weeks ago our press recorded that Pope Pius Ilth has ordered the Vatican cellars com­ pletely cleared of all wines and liqu­ ors and decreed that no more intoxi­ cants be stored there.
