EDITORl.AL NOTES A man char.rrui -.vith being drunk in Buffalo got off because he had only 50 cents. The breath that comes from bootleg may have given him a second-hand jag for nothinj;. • « « Announcement has been made at OiUwa that a vote has been maei.. to provide a new ''preferred cla.ss penitentiary" for the nrovince of On- tario Agitation ha.f been carried o.i for some years for the segregation of young prisoners to hardened con- victs. Wheic the new peni'entary would bo located wa.s nit amounced, but is expected that it would be close to Portsmouth penitentiary. The need cf such an institution has been feU for some time; a place where a y >ung criminal on his first inr^'ceration wo 'M no*, be placed where he could mingle with perpetu- al residents of l.such an institution,' and receive advanced education in ' criminal practicses. It is far belter; to save a wrong-doer on his first conviction than to make a hahitul criminal by association with the dregs of humanity in a penitentiary. > Editor EUGENIA SCHOOL REI'ORT 5th â€"Kathleen Pedlar*.

I I was born within four miic.-i of 1 Pkiherton, 72 years ago to-da-- •May the MOth. 1857. I was learning tlu' blacksmith trade in your town 54 ycar.s ago at $10 per vear. I left there more than half a century ago for the United States. Sojourned in Iowa f o â-  a year and took Horace Greenley's advice and went West to grow up with the country and landed in Loup City, Neb., the 12th day .May, 1880, and the people have put u;) with me ever since. Soon after c.-.e of the female of the species Kf â- â- . me to agree to pay her board h':.\ for life and I have been doing so ever since and that is a long time to live with one woman in the United States, but it can be done. So you see I have bec.i a pioneer in tha woods of Western Canada and en the Western Prai"ies of United States ant*! have helped build and live in the traditionnil "Old Log Cabin on the Farm" and the "Old Scd Shanty on the Claim." Oh! How I would like to be thtrc and go bock with you in memory, "O'er the Ion?, long trail that leads away, To '.he old, old times of yester- day, To the stirring times of the van- ished years, When th: laud was new and the pioneer.? With gallant hearts and faith in God, Wrought homes and v/oalth from the j;airic sod, I.aloring en with a courage great, Founilations laid for a mighty : 'nte." The great State of Ontraio, in which those early pioneers ^^n the iron'io' I'ck ' uch "an active part and buildcd better than they knew. On the canvas of the ,^as^, I see 1 picture of those rugged i>ioneei-s. "They were virile and rough, hardy and strong, They came ihrouKh the v/oods, and the way was long. But Hiey were the kind of folk to 'ake, ... i- The higAO :t chan:ej for the mgi?e.^ Thev lived in the wood alone with God, . ... Under their feet was the viwrm sod. And with thtir axe they blazed the way. For the weaker sone of the future day." The 8on« of to-day may Uke et- ception to this but the poet had in mind those e^rly pioneers, who haa physkal atrength, courage and en- dursnce, "To conquer the wilderness knowing «o fears aa they answered the West's Golden Lure." The sons of to-day have to pavw the way in this aew age in which It is said that opportunity Aangea her password evory day. Ab age said to have been Iwrn without a memory and is so ti»sy with to- day's achievements and tomorrows projects!, that no one has time to ..member yeateiday's explous. and 'J tktiy ^ucceed' uadSr this new era in building hotter than th^.-y kn.w thoy will h« cnUtlc-l to the same respect that our Forefathers arc ro- ccivinK to-dny.
