One evening last week we drove out to a place a few miles from home in the hope that we would get a little duck shooting. Our hope of roast duck on the menu for toâ€"morrow‘s dinner went glimmering, as the sun set, and no ducks came near enough to receive the lethal load that would reduce them to our possession. Calling the dog, we started our weary tramp through the mud back to the car. Nearly back to the car we came upon a chap who was rigging up his fishing tackle in preparation to going out after the trout that could be seen rising all along the shore line. We stopped to pass the time of day, as men usually do when they are out in the open, and in the course of conversation, asked if he knew there were trout in the pond, and that the legal season was now passed. He assured us that he was aware of both facts and that he was still going fishing. Needless to say our conversation came to a rather abrupt and uneasy end, and we were just about ready to move on again, when the other chap picked up the battered threads of our conversation. "You probably wonder at me making such a statement," he said, "but I am one of the 3,400 forgotten, lawâ€"abiding workers who have been trying to maintain production in the Stelco plant in Hamilton." "I am lucky," he continued, "for I am out on holidays from the plant . . . some of the boys are still there, and may not get out in time to have any holidays while the weather is nice." > "What has that got to do with you going fishing even though the season is closed?" we asked. "It has a lot to do with it," he replied. "Most of the boys who have stayed at work in the plant did so for two reasons; first, because the Government asked us to maintain production so that postâ€"war prosperity could return at an early date, and secondly because none of us felt that we wanted to take orders from a bunch of foreign agitators. You know what happened," he continued, "we backed the Government up, and we were Canadians and in the majority. However when it came time for the Government to back us up, that was a horse of a different colour. We became virtual prisoners, cut off from our homes and our families and the things we wanted to do, all because the Canadian government was afraid to step in and break a mob rule that was instigated and carried out by a group of foreigners." "That is the resaon I am going fishing even though the season is closed; for we that remained in Stelco, saw little of law enforcement, except mob law." Most of the other men who remained in the Stelco plant feel as I do, that laws are made for the eonvenience of the Government, and not to protect the ordinary man and his family, and we also feel that if they (the Government) can overlook the actions of the soâ€"called pickets, then they can overlook our actions if we choose to catch a trout out of season." uo THE BEAN PRINTING & PUBLISHING CO. & Owners and Publishers Subscriptions Payable in Advance $1.00 per year in Canada; $200 per year cutride Canade Single copies 5 cents.

It was approved by the council the statement that both churches are " in real and substantial agreeâ€" ment" in all stated essentials of the Christian faith. It also held that the first step toward reunion should be a mutually acceptable ministry, and reappointed a commission on reunion to continue conversations with the Anglican Church.
