was scarcely daylight before the val
ley began filling up with vehicles Of
every variety, all headed toward the
village, and by 1920. the time set for
the beginning of the service. 1t was
not possible for a conveyance to get
within a quarter of a mile of the
church. When the Rev. Mr.. Ireland
who had been chosen by Mr. Wiseman
to offieiate, stepped into the pulpit the
building was crowded to its utmost
capacity and the grounds surrounding
1t were filled with throng of people
eager to take part In the strange cere-
monies. After the funeral address Mr..
Wiseman and his family and friends

takes exception to the report that the
organization is dead, says the Montreal
Star. The Montreal Parliamentary
Debating Society is not dead. he
claims, but sleeping for time. A
state OF similar inactivity came over
1t some four or five years ago, when
its sessions were suspended for cou-
Pile of years. This. however, did not
prevent its springing forth with re-
newed usefulness when the demand for
its opportunities was felt. Unlike
most debating societies the mock par
lament has had a singularly well-con-
tinued existence for nearly fourteen
years. OF late. however, there has
been a good deal OF apathy In the pub
lie mind regarding its proceedings and
1t was deemed well that meanwhile it
should bide its time. Moreover. the
alleged obsequies We're not SO lacking
in mourners as would appear. Rather
more than twenty supporters gathered
recently and it was an open question
for some time whether the society
should not go on with its good works.
Probably the real danger was the
confessed inability of the speak

the leader of the government
party to give the society as much
of their time and attention as here
tofore. The question of continuing,

As our Board Of Health has only a

The unfortunate appearance Of

slit out the evidence on the subject,

He has. we are told, an excellent repu-

as a state official will have a force and

they are. will not have.
The bad sanitary conditions Of parts

II Is well understood In the microbe
