MUSICAL LEGAL Rec. MO. 2866 Residence 148 Phone 242 1941 Last week a Montreal judge sent- enced a man charged with two sep- arate crimes to a life term for each offence. Fortunately the judge was kindahearted and made the two terms concurrent. If the sentences had Ibeen made consecutive the convicted man would have had to turn around after spending his whole life in prison and . do it all over again. The incident recalls another story of a judgeâ€" this time, a British judge. He had just sentenced a ,man to a life term, and the prisoner burst into tears. “I can’t stand it,” soblbed the pris- oner, “I know I won’t live that long.” The kind-hearted judge comforted the solbbing fellow. “Never mind, my Ipoor fellow,” the judge said, “it won’t take nearly as long as you expect. Anyway don’t worry. Just do the best you can!” Mr. John Hamilton and five re- formed drun‘kards from the Work- imgman’s Home, Toronto, attende Qhe weekly rprayer meeting at the Richmond Hill Methodist Church. W. Bro. J.

With the season wearing on .the council let the job to a new contractor and he has been: getting It’s amazing the number of people who think [printers can live on fresh air and sunshine. The number of people in a week who besiege this office for free advertising is as‘tounidu inng‘. Once again we repeat, that a notice about any coming event which is designed to raise money is AD- VERTISING and must be paid for. No matter how worthy the cause? advertising space is our srtock in trade, is what we have to sell, and if we are to live we must be paid for it. Toronto Kiwanis Clulb presented Soholarsvhips to eight York County Junior Farmers this week. The scholarships pay the fees of recipiâ€" ents at 0.A.C. short course at Guelph.

They are already predicting an: early and hard winter and base their pessimistic expectations on all sorts of things.

Peter Walker of this ddstrict who has been overseas for _some time was heard in a broadcast from Eng- land recently. It’s a nice feeling to hear the voice of one of the boys “over there". York County Council is» in session and the boys are on their annual talk fest. With all the war interest it’s hard for the County Councillors to hit the headlines.

The purses were all different in design and may have all been used. County Officer Barry Farrell, who is investigating, admits it is one of the most mysterious cases in some time as no thefts of this na- ture have been reported. The Kiwanis Club of Toronto for the 16th consecutive year entertainâ€" ed the members of the Boys’ Calf Clubs of York County at their reg- ular lunch-eon on Wednesday last. AJbout sixty clu‘b memlbers, their leaders and the officers of the ‘M'afrk- ham Agricultural Society were roy- ally entertained Iby their hosts. Alfred Rettinger, while motoring a short distance from this home in. Curloss last week, was given an un- usual surprise when‘ a large fbuc‘k d‘eer contested the right of way with him. The animal, which, would weigh nearly 400 lbs, stoodl fifteen feet in front of and! facing the machine, pawing the ground‘ ferociously, and emitted loud, challenging tears at the car. Mr. Rettinger promptly stopped the car, and allowed? the ani- mal to mag and paw his anger out, after which it amlbled away. The motorist was afraid‘ for a time that the d‘eer was going to make a sav- age attack on his car radiator.â€" .Mil-dmay Gazette.

Kiwanis Club Banquets Farm Boys Port McNicoil has offered a bounty of fifty cents apiece on skunks. 'Pity the Chief of Police, as claimants must bring the od'oriferous animals to him. We dom’t ’blame him if he says: “My job these days isn’t worfihv a scent.” It may also interest our readers to know that a skunk can’t spray if it hasn't its feet on the ground. Pick up a skunk :by the tail and it is harmless; but ‘be sure you pick it up soon enough, or else â€"rwell, don’t say we didn't tell you.
