Large Polls In Demand

i A rather wide spread in price Qbetween male and female skins ”was noted, indicating the import- -ance of having large pelts. Large sizes invariably brought higher prices. providing for quality was ' about equal. ' Since the week of October 23, .-.anly one sale of fox pelts hu been 3-held in Canada. This was the Hudson's Bay Company Sale held in Montreal. December 12. when a collection of mass skins of the ,various types were offered. The collection consisted of previous a.aeI.s0n's pelts. and attracted only ” te attcndance. Many of the pelts had been offered on previous sales. and on the whole the col- lection was not an attractive one. Only moderate clearances were made. but prices were maintained 3 at the previous sale level. ; Interest centered mainly on the ' 1-2 to 3-4 and dark silvery color phases in standard silver sections. -,..Platinu.ma and pearl plat-inums of '”good quality and medium colors received more attention than the poorer quality sections. while in white merited silvers. good qual- ily light colors were in best de- -, mend.

Christmas Party At Notre Dame

I E

The Christmas spirit was very much in evidence around Notre Dame Academy on Satuudgy afternoon when the students entertained about seventy-five children from St. Vincent's Orph- llllle at their annual Chr' t Party. The entertainment was pro- Vided by the pupils of the junior classes who. as on former occaa. ions. dlitpllyed a wealth of mus- ical and dramatic talent as they presented the two big features of their Christmas concert. "Frosty. The Snowman" and "The Crib At Grecoio."

After the concert, Santa Claus with his heavily laden sack ap- peared and distributed the at- tractlvely wmpped Christmas gifts among the children. A delicious lunch was then served. after which each child was treated to an ample supply of fruit and candy. Thia party is a yearly activity of the High School Sodality. The Apos- tolic Committee is. for the most part. responsible for the organ- iwtion of the prodect. All were. however. well rewarded for their efforts when they saw the joy in the eyes of the children as they left with their presents. We are especially grateful to those who so generously ciftfercd cars for conveying the children to Notre Dame and home again.

IN MEI-LORIAM

DEW. FRANCIS BRADLEY

sale.

The parishioners of Kelly's Cross in general and her neighbours in particular were filled with sorrow to hear on the morning of Novem- ber 19th of the death of Mrs. Francis Bradley of south Melville. Although Mrs. Bradley had been in failing health for some time her family and friends entertained great hope for her recovery almost to t.he last; however this was not to be: and although her friends re- jot'ced to see her improved in health when she returned from the Hospital. she later suffered a re- lapse and gradually weakened: fortified by the last rites of Holy Mother Church she passed peace- fully away on the above mention- ed date in her seventy-first year.

The late Mrs. Bradley was pos- sessed of -a very friendly and cheerful disposition, she conse- quently made friends easily. She was thoughtful and kind and never missed an opportunity to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. She was a firm believer in the golden rule: "Do onto others as you would have them do to you." But. possibly her finest qualities and traits of character were brought out in her duties and relations to her home and family. She was a great home-lover and her first in- terests were always for her hus- band and family. The untimely death of her second son. Cecil some three years ago caused her much sorrow.

Besides her sorrowing husband are left to mourn their loss one daughter Mary, (Mrs. John Cus- ack) nmyvsle . and nve sons: Jos- eph in Bolton, Mass: Charlie in Woodstock. New Brunswick; Wil- fred at home in South Melvlle; Maurice and Edwin. Kelly's Cross. one daughter. Kathleen and two ssons Cecil and George predeceas- ed her. she also leaves two broth- ers Charles Woods of Kelly's cross and Wilfred of Georgetown.

I-ler funeral which was largely attended. was held on Tuesday morning. November zlst. to St. Joseph's Church, Kelly's cross. Requiem High Mass was celebrated by her pastor. Rev. Kenneth Mc- Millan. while Rev. Wilfred Keefe. a former pastor was present in the Sanctuary. The pallbearers were: Peter Greenan. Ephraim Malone,

As a result. he had to modify "certtin views" he had held as to the nature of death. but. in the main he still eluded that mass- ive haamorrhaging in the brain was hurried by the application of force to the outer parts of the head.

This force, he told Crown Attor- ney Raoul Merciar. may have been a "solid object" applied to the head repeatedly and from various angles. It could have been anything, a clos- ed flat, a kick or a bottle.

F ' ca Counsel R-oydon Hughes sought to ascertain from Dr. Klotz whether a man suffering from an- gioma might not experience dizzy spells. causing him to stagger and to strike his head against solid ob- jects in a room.

Dr. Klotz said his knowledge of the disease was that it would cause a. man to stagger. to lose balance and co-ordination of automatic ac- tions. But he did not believe that had this staggering occurred, that the injuries he had observed would have resulted.

Both Dr. Harry Dover. coroner. and Dr. G. Lorne Gardner, hotel physician. said they were unaware that Mr. Sullivan had suffered from angioma at the time they examin- ed the body on the morning of Nov. 18

OTTAWA. Dec. 17 -(CF)-Key crown exhibits-a soda bottle. ash- tray and tumbler-all shattered- have been brought into the pre- liminary hearing of Mrs. Marlon Sullivan of Toronto. charged with the murder of her lawyer husband.

Parts of the broken glassware were discovered in the Chateau Laurier room where Francis J. Sullivan was found dead Nov. 18, allegedly from blows about the head. other parts, the crown al- leges. were found wrapped in Mrs. Sullivan's luggage.

Introduction ot'the glassware. reconstructed by use of glue and tape. was a highlight of the pro- ceedings Saturday. as the Crown continued to unfold its case. The hearing was adjourned until Mon- day. at 2:30 p. m.
