THE KALEIDOSCOPE

That they have human Snakes" in
England as we'll as in the United
States, is shown in the book written
by man who had morals which did
not deter him from capitalizing ira
ducing the dead, to the end that the
garbage of his mind might possibly
bring him few shillings and noto-
riety that he might capitalize as
writer of note" There are many
garbage writer's" in the United
States. and many publishers looking
for that kind of "swill" William E.
Gladstone needs no defense from the
Kaleidoscope, and yet we cannot re-

effect that some so-called brainy
writer's have no respect for the dead
or their mother.

This is the platform of the Democratic Candidates.
upon which they ask the vote and support of the
electors of the City Of Hamilton, at the election
Tuesday, November 3, 1926
We recognize the necessity of giving to the city
our best efforts to solve the many problems of vital
interest to every citizen and taxpayer, with which
we will have to DEAL officials, if elected. We also
recognize that the affairs of the city cannot be
cessfuly administered by any individual, no mat
ter what his her official position, and that it is
necessary to have the cooperation of all depart
ments and all officers of the city and the
confidence Of the people if successful administration
is to be accomplished.
We also recognize the right of the people to be
advised of the attitude of the candidates seeking
election, the problems with which they will be
confronted officials, if elected and SO we pledge
ourselves to the following platform.
Recognizing the necessity for good and efficient
administration of the city's affairs the candidates
on the Democratic ticket, if elected pledge the peo
pie that they will unite and cooperate in promoting

such men and women capable, honest and
willing to perform the duties of their respective posi-
tions, unhampered and without fear or favor.
Two questions are outstanding in their Importance
to all the people-GAS and ELECTRICITY. Eff
cient service and low price to the consumer should
be the determining factor. The gas and electric
properties belong to the people and consider them
competent to determine for themselves what shall be
done-so much so, that what the people solemnly
have declared, or may declare by their votes, will
relgously follow. From this there will be no devia
tion, sde-stepping. There is candidate on the
Democratic ticket bound in any way to any corpora
ton or person, seeking public favors in these mat
ters-we are not bound and gagged committed
to any proposition attorney, agent, or employee
We are free to act without restraint to carry out
the wishes of the people, and to this end solemnly
pledge ourselves to devote every effort to do as you
declare. The law provides method for all citizens
to make their wishes known, to legisate for them
selves by initiative referendum election What
the people vote to do will do without reservation
to the best of our ability It makes no difference
what the opinion of the individual office holder or
candidate may be- the people will and should decide
these questions themselves, and the officials are not
only morally but legally bound to execute and carry
out the decision of the people.

ST. PETERS PARISH
TO HAVE BAZAAR

October 27, % and 20 are the days

Moose auditorium therefore was
selected as the logical place.

Paloma NEVER would have done
it-for he is as gentle as that
which his name means-dove.
Paloma is dove in Spanish. And
my Paloma is the gentlest horse
in the world.
This>fs how 1t was. I was rid
ing home one night along the
road. I felt good, and so did
Paloma. It was a brisk fall eve
ming, SO Paloma and I thought
we would have a canter. So off
we went. But / didn't watch the
road as carefully as / should.
1t was all right while the road
was dirt and Palon1a could dig
his hoofs in-but when we turned
on a cement road it was differ
ent. There is where I should
have pulled him down to a trot,
or a walk, but If I had, would
not be telling you this story.
/ didn't pull PaIoma in, but
went straight on galloping down
the hard cement road, and, what's
more, down a hill, too, which is
the worst thing of all for horse.

The poor horse was scared to
death and off down the road he
ran.
I collected myself. didn't
know that anything hurt for the
moment. But it didn't take me
long to find out. For when
started to get up, I couldn't
stand on one foot. My ankle
wouldn't hold me. 1t just

ankle was sprained. 1t didpf
feel very good either.
What to do / didn't know.
I couldn't, get up. And where
was my poor horse?
Several automobiles passed-buS
I just smelt the gasoline as they
whizzed by and they never knew
that I was lying there, crippled,
by the roadside.
I thought and thought what
to do and finally I dozed off,
only to be awakened in a moment
by the clatter of hoofs down the
road.

Bobby slid off the back of his

that It was PaIoma that Bobby

1t only took a moment to tell
Bobby what had happened, and
when he said that John, our man,
was coming in the car remem-
bered to ask Bobby how he knew
what had happened.
"Paloma told u.s." explained
Bobby. HE came tearing into
