no signature to the letter -and is urged
to set the wheels of Justice in motion,
having nothing further to guide him but
this bit of flimsy and uncertain evi-
dence. If sucb enthusiastic correspon-

unsatisfactory practice of sending
anonymous communication through the

Following resolutions were passed at
W ingbam District meeting of the Metho.
dist church :—"Phis annual meeting of
Wingbam District, desires to express
its strong disapproval of racetrack
gabbling as permitted and carried on in
Ontario. We would urge upon the On-
tario Government to speedily cheek this
evil. ' While urging Production and
Conservation and while there is sacrifice
and suffering everywhere, and tbreaten-
ed want in the Empire, we believe this
source of privileged gambling should be
drastically dealt with by our Govern-
ment at once," "We desire to sound a
warning note on the proposal to tbrow
open the gates of the Lord's Day on the
assumption that it is necessary to do so
to aid in the Increased Production. We
look upon it as an insult to the farming
community of this Cbristain land, whom
we believe desire to do their patriotic
duty to the extent of their ability but
who remember the words of a greater
than man who said, "Six days shalt thou
labor and do all thy work,' As many
inroads have already been made on the
Sabbath we urge Methodist people to be
on the alert to oppose any action that
would curtail the sanctity and rest of
the Lord's Day."
