And drest in suit of black . and gray,
I'm glad to have you come my way.
My trees need cleaning up, I know,
That .they. More healthy fruit may
grow,
And you, I feel, without a doubt,
Will find and dig the "borers" out.

Who getsyour food with lively tap,
And tongue that has a barbed point,
With which you search each hole and

Where bugs and worms are hied away,
Which Nature made your lawful prey,
And while your living you obtain,
You are to men a source of gain.

J'Y
YOUNG'S SENTENCE RAISED
TO TWO YEARS
Toronto. ---Chief Justice (William
1'Lulock, j0 varying the sentence int -
'posed by a :magistrate upon •G'ordon
Young, convicted al theft of Huroi,
County moneys, on Monday declared
an "undesirable situation" had been
created 'by the Ontario Legislature in
allowing police magistrates to hear
cases involving 'grave offences for
which stiff penalties must be invoked.
Sir William's judgment varied the
sentence of 12 mon,fhs definite and
six months indeterminate imposed by
Police 1Mlagistrate'C. 'A. Reid of Go-
derich, in the case of Young, former
Huron County treasurer, and substi-
tuted a sentence of two years less one
day in reformatory.
Young had pleaded guilty to the
theft of county :moneys a sum of over
$5,000; to mutilating 'hooks and gi•v-
ing money to auditors in an endeavor
to have then help .hint in "covering
up" his 'th'efts, said the chief justice.
The Attorney -(General of :Ontario ap-
pe'aled the sentence as inadequate and
asked that .a penitentiary term he im-
posed.
The chief 'justice said he did not
know whether the !Legislature would
take cognizance of the views of the
•Alppella'te Court, 'but he declared it
was an "inn'possible situation if reas-
onable administration :of justice was
to be expected from untrained men'
In cases of, grave offences, ,His Lord-
ship expressed the opinion •tha't the
case should be taken from the pur-
view of the magistrate and brought
'before the county judge. "a .man of;
legal' training."
"There has been a demand from
the public lately for standardization
of sentences. \Vhat an impossible,
thing. 'What an absurd position. It
seems inioossible that anyone famil-
iar with the Administration of justice
.could make such a suggestion. Al-
though we are ]Meth to disturb the
seni(tence ,we feel that in this rase the
magistrate erred on the side '.of len-
:ency."
