A Cumberland Islander editorial urges true charity beyond money, citing Portia on mercy and warning of modern Shylocks. It questions whether readers forgive as they seek forgiveness, urging adherence to the Golden Rule as the holiday season nears.
The Canada flag proposal favors a Union Jack backdrop with a maple leaf as the distinguishing mark. Proponents argue the maple leaf represents all of Canada while the Union Jack honors the empire, with color debated but design prioritized for instant recognition.
The Islander hosts an entertainment for city children to showcase the work of French women in World War I and to foster understanding of allied sacrifices. A later adult event will raise funds for a deserving institution, likely a General Hospital, with admission proceeds supporting the cause.
Notice states the Cumberland Motor Works partnership in Cumberland between Andrew Thomson and John H. Giuteron is dissolved as of October 14 1919. John H Cameron will carry on the business alone and is sole recipient of debts due to the firm, payable immediately.
