If Mahomet Went to the Mountain
IF he took it into his head to return
1 to earth, and if he came to Canada,
there is no doubt but that the Prophet
would go to Mount Robson. For one
thing, it is the loftiest and most
majestic peak in the Canadian Rockies,
and for another, Mount Robson would
not likely go to Mahomet. Changes as
miraculous as the moving of mountains
have come to pass in the world since
Mahomet's day, however, and the
Prophet would be much impressed by
,the railway train—"The Confedera-
itiori" or "The Continental Limited"—
;'which carried him so swiftly and
,comfortably to his destination.
Canada has many wonders, as five
and a half million tourists from the
United States found out last year.
Greater numbers of travellers are
learning every summer that one of the
ifust of them is Mount Robson. This
verb the Canadian National Railways
have organized several persorally con-
ducted tours of Canadians discovering
their own country. Two of them will
leave Montreal and Toronto in July,
under the guidance of such well-
qualified men as C.A. Adams, B.A., of
Granby, Que., Martin Kerr, 13.A., of
Hamilton and A. E. Bryson of Toronto.
Beginning with a Great Lakes trip, the
tourists will see as much of the West
as can be packed into three weeks.
They will cross the prairies, visit the
foothills and the Rockies spending a
time in Jasper National Park—and
will see Mount Robson; they will go
from 'V`ancottver to Prince Rupert by'
Canadian National steamship along;
the placid, fjorded, "Inside' Passage,
and will tum east, along the Skeena,'
through the fascinating land of totem'
poles, The first of the tours will leave
Montreal on July 10 and Toronto the
following day; the second will be under
way July 24 and 25,

Lodge in honor of the Rt.; Wor. Bro.
L. H. Saunders, L P. Grand. Master
of Ontario West, held in Kincardine
Parish Hall last Friday evening. An
excellent dinner was served by the
ladies of the L.O.B.A, Over three
hundred guests , were present. Ad-
dresses were given by the Grand
Master and County officers, also a
male, quartette sang some comic
songs, and a duet, "My Wild Irish
Rose" by Welsh and Taylor, was well
rendered. After the banquet a dance
was held in the Town Hall, music
by the Purple Grove Orchestra, All
went home in the wee sma" hours of
the morning enthused and inspired
by the prevailing spirit of Orangeism,
in West Bruce County.
BLYTH
Mr. Isaac 'Brown, eldest son of the
late Mr. and Mrs. William Brown,
died at his home in Toronto on Sat-
urday, aged 69 years. Deceased had
spent the greater part of his life in
this vicinity where he followed the
occupation of a stone mason. He
will always be remembered for his
financial help in the erection of our
beautiful Memorial Hall. His wife
and one daughter have the sympathy
of a large circle of friends. The re-
mains were brought here by C. P. R.
train on Monday. Service was held
in Queen St. United Church, conduct-
ed by Rev. R. J. McCormick of Ham-
ilton, assisted by the pastor of the
Church, Rev. Eric Anderson. The
floral tributes bore mute testimony
to the high esteem of the departed
Among those who attended the fun-
eral Were: Mr. and Mrs. 011ie John-
ston and Mrs. Alice Brown of Tor-
onto, James Brown of New Liskeard,
Mr, and Mrs. John Logan, Brussels;
Mr. and Mrs. Roy Munro, Auburn.
BAD DISHONESTY
The Old. Age Pension Act with
about two years experience, has al-
ready resulted some unfavourable
symptoms. In Toronto the clerk in
charge of this Department is found
to be about $2,000.00 out in his ac-
counts, having forged cheques on in-
mates in the jail farm. In Elgin
county two ,men are under arrest for
forgery and theft, while in Elmot
Twp. charges were made of alleged
wrongdoing last fall. An inspector
from the Dept. in Toronto, made an
investigation and gave the local of-
ficials a clean bill of health which is
not altogether satisfactory to the
party who made the charges. It
seems strange that there are people
of so callous and corrupt disposition
as to take advantage of such a meas-
ure as this for their own personal
financial gain. In an Act to provide
for the maintenance of old people,.
who for perhaps no reason of them-
selves find themselves in financial
difficulties surely deserves the best
in every official that the utmost ser-
vice and benefit of the Act may be
secured, But it seems that there are
those who love of money drown ev-
every other motive .
A girl suet an old flame and de-
termined to high -hat hint. "Sorry,"
she •murmured when the hostess in-
troduced him to her, "but I didn't
get your name."
"I know you didn't," replied the
old flame, "but that is not your fault,
you tried hard enough."
"Do you know your wife is telling,
around that you can't keep her in
clothes?"
"That's nothing. I bought her a
tome and I can't keep her in that
either."

NEW MODERATOR
At the inaugural session of the
Hamilton and London Synod of the
Presbyterian church in Canada, held
in Knox Church, Goderich,. Monday
night, Rev, Peter Reith, B.A., of
Tara, was elected moderator for the
ensuing year. Mr. Reith was a run-
nerup for the office last year, The

Atwood, was also proposed but Mr.
West withdrew and the appointment
of Mr, Reith was made unanimous.
Mr. Reith is at present clerk of
the Presbytery of Bruce, where he
has been for many years and has
done great work for the church. He
began his rninistry in the Presbytery
of Hamilton where he went after a
good course as a student at Toronto
University and: Knox College. Here
.presents thehard working country
minister who keeps up his studies,
prepares carefully for his pulpit, is
well versed in the rules of the church
a good pastor and presbyter. That
he came to the chair without opo-.
sition is a tribute to his fine service
in the Synod, and the confidence of
his brethren in his fine ability to pre-
side over the court, and fill the hon-
ors of the office during his year of
service, Mr. Reith's nomination was
proposed by A. H. Wilson, Paisley,
and Rev. C. H. McDonald, Lucknow.
'The 57th meeting of the Synod op-
ened in Knox Church' at 8 o'clock.
There are three hundred and twenty
members on the roll, and although
there are some absent, the attendan-
ce was very large.
The opening exercises were con-
ducted by Rev. T. D. McCullough, M.
A., the retiring moderator, who is the
minister of Knox church, Kincardine,
Rev. R. C. McDermid, minister of
the church, and Rev. J. A. Brown, B.
A., of Ingersoll.

DROP CHARGES OF
LISTOWEL LAWYER
The Crown will not proceed with
any of the remaining charges of false
pretences on which J. Cecil Hamil-
ton, Listowel lawyer, has been com-
mitted. The charges against Hamil-
ton were slated to come up before
Judge Clement of Kitchener in coun-
ty court in Stratford on Monday, but
L. J. Long, acting Crown Attorney,
had previously received instructions
from the Attorney -General's Depart-
ment that the charges were to be
dropped so no court was held.
Mr. Long stated that he had re-
ceived no instructions regarding the
charge of conspiracy against Hamil-
ton. Prosecution of this charge is in
the bands of a special crown prose-
cutor. The conspiracy charge was
traversed from the Spring Assizes of
the Supreme Court here to the Fall
assizes, The Attorney -General's De-
partment had previously instructed.
that hearing on this charge was to
be in Supreme Court with judge and
jury.
Hamilton, who was convicted on
one charge of false pretences last
summer is now serving a two-year
term in the Ontario Reformatory.

FINE PLAYGROUNDS
The grounds committee of the re-
cently formed tennis club consisting
of N. Murray, W. T. Riddell, A. J.
Ferguson, E, Lawson and N. Hill, af-
ter viewing the field rented from the
estate of the late John Sturdy, decid-
ed that as the eastern portion of the
field was the best suited for a play
ground for the children it was best
to reserve This portion for this pur-
pose and. ,construct tennis courts in
another cart which will take consid-
erable labor and outlay. .Before mak-
ing these extensive improvements
they made an effort to purchase the
field and snake it a permanent play
ground. 'Their' efforts being success-
ful they now announce a public meet-
ing to be held in the Library Mon-
day evening for the purpose of form-
ing a community club to arrange for
the takingg over of the property, and
organizing the different branches of
amusement, tennis horseshoes and
especially games and sports for the
children. Everyone interested is r

At present the only available play-

used for several years. However, the
space there is limited and quite often
when playing ball the children will

FIRE DESTROYS
BARN AND CONTENTS
Joseph Hugill, whose farm is sit-
uated on the boundary line of Hul-
lett and McKillop, near Seaforth, met
with a serious loss last week, when
fire of undetermined origin complet-
ely destroyed his two barns and poul-
try houses, with their contents. In
the barns were several head of cat-
tle, sheep and lambs, and all the farm
machinery, as well as a quantity of
grain and fodder.
The fire when first noticed at a-
bout 9 o'clock had made such head-
way that nothing could be saved. All
the poultry, too, fell a prey to the
flames. To Mrs. Hngill, who is in
very poor health, the fire was a great'
shock. Mr. and Mrs. Hugill are a
young couple who have been married
but a few years and have been get-
ting ahead nicely at their farm home,
and the loss of their buildings and
contents will be a deplorable setback
The loss, which will aggregate $5000
or more, will be partially offset by
insurance, It is hoped that building
operations will be undertaken. Mr.
Hugill has no theory as to the origin
of the fire.
