WE WILL READILY ARRANGE WEEKLY OR MONTHLY PAYMENTS To SUIT YOUR INDIVIDUAL BUDGET: With the oueia:ions of the Canadian railways threatened by a general walk-out of the workers early tomorrow morning, the transportation concerna have already taken steps to prevent unnecessary Avs for shipment» in transit.The most, drastic step is the order of the Railway Association of Canada which has placed an embargo on \u2019he acceptance of treight shipments after midnight tonight.As freight sheds and receiving offices in most centres close at five o\u2019clock, : ne effective time of the embargo is early this evening.An embargo was placed in effect last Sunday on the shipment of vestock and perishable commodi-; i les.; Already the cancellation of I certain long-distance passenger trains has been ordered and a statement by the Railway Association states \"Cancellation of passenger trains \\v:ti begin on Wednesday and there who do travel are again warned they must be prepared to terminate their journeys by midnight Wednesday, July 14,\" In addition to the employees of the railway.-, the commercial telegraphers who operate the telegraph services of the country and , the employees of some seventeen railway-owned hotels strung across Canada are also involved ¦ in the threatened walk-out.No general cancellation of trains in this district effective today was reported by railway officials as in most cases those iq operation will be able to reach their destination before midnight.However, it is understood that the Canadian Pacific train due here at 8.15 tomorow morning from Saint John, .VP., will be cancelled if no settlement is announced curly this afternoon while Montreal to Saint John trains normally passing tnrough here early this evening will be halted at Sherbrooke.Instructions have been issued to ticket agents not to sell transportation for journeys which cannot be completed by six o'clock tomorrow morning, the deadline for the walkout.Local passenger ag- ents report that there has been a general eancellation of sleeping and parlor err reservations for long distance trips on the part of the public, which is fearful that they may be unable to return from their trips or perhaps be stranded at some intermediate point.While many are hopeful of making medium length trips by motor bus.Provincial Transport Company officials were none too optimistic that t 'ey could provide substantial relief.\\ spokesman at the local office declared tnat lack of reserve equipment would privent any large-scale duplication of runs.The normal heavy traffic of mid-summer vas pi easing tno-.r coaches to the limit, he said, and he doubted if the present rusn sei-vice could be expanded.Post office officials have w.,n-cd that there w.il be a drastic curtailment of mail services in the event tnc s.soke btconua «ffoctive.Effective the moment the s.vike starts, all mail services within Canada and to uni from other coun-triis.will bo suspended with the following except:, ns: 1\t0: .inary correspondence up to one ounce in weight, -.An mail in the nature of correspondence, w about weight limit, prepaid at u,r mail rates.-Medicines, including analyses, specimens and other similar item -prepaid at normal rates.Except as provided for in the above, no mail will bo accepted or carried during the period of the strike The public is warned to take the fact that many trains wit! not complete their journeys when mailing parcel post, newspapers, publications and printed matter.A ban on the acceptance o£ perishables is already in effect.The Ball Telephone Company is preparing for a sharp increase in the volume of long distance calls, resulting both from the railway strike itself, which is bound to be reflected in calls from shippers and expectant receivers over the nonarrival of goods and the diversion of traffic usually handled by the telegraph sy:v m to long distance, wires.Prize \\n son Geography: J P.Ogilvie; Patin: .1.Ronthron; French; .1, Ronthron; M iitluni.-.* it's ; J.Itonthron; Hr.ndi cat: - : T 1P Ri > : on.P ¦ n 111 Gene: a!
