opening cf the Catholic Book Week, held last night in St.Patrick's Church Hall.Recounting the pleasures which are derived from reading a good book, Mr, Slattery emphasized the importance of choosing

you good upstanding people.\u201d The speaker outlined the various volumes to be found at the Canon Fisette Memorial Library, and stated that the 2,500 books contained therein offer a wide and well-balanced variety of reading matter, encompasioing countless subjects of interest to the young folks, as well as to grown-ups.He urged his youthful audience to visit the library on Sunday after the 10 a.m.Mass, when they may browise around and pick out their books for a two-week period.The librarians.Miss Gladys Mullins and Mis,j Loretta Steele, who helped organize the Book Week, will be on

Monday at 10 o'clock when the jury announced this morning that it had not yet reached a verdict in the trial of Mrs.Theodore Provencher, 55 years old, of Sherbrooke, charged with inciting army desertion.The all-French-speaking jury retired at 11.15 o'clock last night when Mr.Justice Dalma Lai.dry, presiding at the hearing which opened on Thursday, adjourned Court until this morning.The evening session started at eight o'clock.Cesaire Gervais, K.C.representing the Minister of Justice, severely condemned the \u201cracket\u201d of the accused in summing u the evidence given at the third hearing of Mrs Provencher.In his address to the talesmen, he pointed out that the offence of conspiracy was most serious because it had the tendency to make other people crimins^s and implied premeditation.Defence Attorney Raoul Gagne advanced a strong plea that the accused should be acquitted, basing his argument along similar iines as in the two previous hearings.Ho stressed to the jurymen that a \u201cnot guilty\u201d verdict should be rendered by all means because \u201cshe was helping men to get out of the army,\u201d which, he charged, \u201cwas the duty of very right thinking citizen.\u201d First witness io testify at the night sitting was Dr.Paul Emile Jean, of Montreal, graduate in chemistry and master in chemical science and analyst of +he Federal Department of National Health.He gave evidence as to the composition of the various medicines prescribed by accused and the effects it caused when taken in different doses.According to Dr.Jean, the medicine would produce vomiting, irritation of the stomach and pains and headaches.His evidence was confirmed by Dr.Gordon Loomis, of Sherbrooke, who also said that the medicine produced irritation of the stomach, vomiting, headaches and severe pains in the muscles, much in.the same manner as arsenic poisoning, when asked to give the composition of the product.Adeas Chouinard, stationed with the Canadian Army in Newfoundland, recounted how he took some of the medicine one morning and became \u201cvery, very ill\u201d with a vomiting spell.He said that he had received a letter from his wife with instructions in connection with taking certain pills, which he later received in a sugar loaf.\u201cWhen I returned from Newfoundland to Sherbrooke on furlough, I went directly to see Mrs.Provencher and complained about the fifty dollars my wife had paid for a tableau (scroll,) witness said.He further testified that accused suggested that he take more medicine, or that she could keep him out of the army by sending him to the woods to work.AYUncs-s added that he obtained certain prayers and a scroll which h wore on his unde: wear, which, he doe laved, he washed along with his underclothing and discarded.Mrs.Henri Dionne, who also had a husband Overseas, told how she went to Mrs.Provencher to get her husband released from the army.\u201cShe s\ther son in a car to see :\t_\t_ Gagnon to whom 1 paid fifty dollars, the same amount as my Mster, Mrs.Chouinard had paid.\" witness stated.She said that Cue money was for a tableau upon which Mrs, Proven-cher was supposed to work, so ns to get 1er husband out of the army.According to her evidence, Gagnon had remitted a note to Mrs.Dionne, which was to be given to Mrs.Pro-venchcr and on which was written \u201ceverything was O.K.\u2019\u2019 The witness added that Mrs.Pro-venelcr in her presence phoned a drug store and talked by means of \u201cnumbers\u201d instead of words and to which drug store Mrs.Dionne presented herself to receive a prepared parcel containing pills, medicines and a film at a cost of $8.60.Emery Gagnon was then called to give evidence.However, early in his testimony he was closely questioned by the Grown and as a result was declared \u201chostile\u201d by the Court, being severely cross-examined by the Crow ».Gagnon admitted having received a scroll from Mrs.Provencher sometime previous to the visit he had received from the wives of the two soldiers, Mrs.Chouinard and Mrs.Dionne.\u201cI made copies of same for which I received $50 each,\u201d witness said.However, Gagnon denied having given any part of the money to the accused, but was always evasive when questioned regarding the agreement, in connection with the sharing of the money.This witness, along with three previous ones, at the start of their testimony asked for the protection of the court.This was granted following a warning that this protection would not cover them if they were to commit perjury.Constable Jeff Charles of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, identified the remainder of the pills and medicines remitted to him by Mrs.Dionne when the Court adjourned for the afternoon session.REAL ESTATE

reasonable shoppers.Explaining the labor situation, officials said that there were many married women who annually served as clerks in the stores and this solved the problem of help to a great extent.Many of them are experienced, and in view of this fact, they are anxious to earn a little extra money at Christmas.It wms \u2019explained that many were engaged in this type of work before
