Only 4 of Youthful Campers
Able to Retain Hold on

LINDSAY, Ontario, July 22.-
Revelation of youthful heroism in
connection with the drowning of IL
members of the Anglican Church
camp today came out of the wilder
ness northeast of Lindsay. Fifteen
youths were thrown into Balsam
Lake when their canoe was over
turned In a sudden squall late Tues
day night. They held on to the up.
turned craft and aided one another as
best they could until, one by one,
after hours in the water, their
strength gave out, they loosed their
hold and sank. Only four members of
the party could maintain their grips
on the keel until the canoe drifted
ashore yesterday.
Capsized by Squall.
The youths had started for Cobo.
conck from their camp in the large
canoe late Tuesday night. Well out
in the lake a squall broke and the
canoe capsiZed.
Raw Shea Butcher, director of the
camp and one of those drowned, was
an outstanding hero. He was among
the few who were able to climb on top
of. the overturned craft, although he
was suffering from badly injured
knee.
AS the hours passed and the ranks
OF the boys in the water were thin
ming, Butcher decided he would give
his place on top of the canoe to
another. He offered up a prayer for
the safety Of those still surviving, and,
bidding them good-by, slipped into the
water and disappeared.
Disappeared One by One.

peatedly swan around the canoe, In

to hang on, and begging them to keep
up their courage. AS the boys weak.
ened Lambden aided them in every
way he could, until they became en-
tirely helpless and disappeared be-
meath the water.
Nine of the drowned boys lived in
Toronto. One came from Calf and the
other from Peterboro. The four boys
who drifted ashore are under medical
care. One of them is In critical con-
dition.

Debate Features
Weekly Meeting
OF KiWanis Club

The Kiwanis meeting at the Elm
wood hotel last evening was feat
ured by a debate on the question,
Should the Child Labor Amend
ment Be Adopted" The speaker IN
the affirmative was Hon. Clyde HI.
Smith of Skowhegan, and in the neg
alive, Judge Benjamin F. Cleaves.
secretary of the Associated Indus
tries of Maine. Mr.. Smith argued
along the. lines that it was far better
for the control of the children to be
vested in one body at Washington
and in this way there would be uni
form legislation among all the states
and the old plea that If one state
made better laws 1t would be placed
at a disadvantage industrially with
respect to others who were not so
progressive, would be done away
with.
He quoted extensively from auth
critics showing the large number OF
children employed in industry and
in the fields and told Of how some
We're employed in dangerous occupa-
tions. He declared his trust that
congress would not pass any bill re-
lating to the work Of children which
was not wanted by the states as a
whole and discounted the question of
expense, declaring that it would be
less than now with one instead of 48
bodies in charge of the problem.
Judge Cleaves reviewed the history
Of the legislation regarding child
labor to some extent, showing that in
Maine there was very little that
could be accomplished that had not
been and that In many other states,
particularly Georgia, great progress
had been made. He took up one by
one the points made by Mr.. Smith
and applied his side of the question
to them, often in humorous way,
his chief argument being that the
amendment was not needed and that
no one here wanted to surrender the
control of their children until they

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered DIR.
Edwards Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub
stitute for calomel-are a mild but
sure laxative. and their effect on the
liver is almost instantaneous. These
little olive-eolored tablets are the re-
suit of Dr. Edwards determination not
to treat liver and bowel complaints
with calomel.
The pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does, but have no
bad after effects. They don't injure
the teeth like strong liquids or calo-
mel. They take hold of the trouble
and quickly correct it. Why cure the
liver at the expense of the teeth?
Calomel sometimes plays havoc with
the gums. SO do strong liquids. 1t is
best not to take calomel. Let DIR. Ed
wards Olive. Tablets take its place.
