Passages From Manitoba Legislature and Local Curling Notes

A Winnipeg style column reports on a court of inquiry critique from Pauilley and Premier Roblin on government plans including hospitalization premiums and a no confidence motion. It also covers local curling clubs in Great Falls and Bissett, tributes to deceased members, and a humorous aside proposing to color bread instead of margarine to satisfy farmers and city dwellers. The piece notes Archdeacon Willis’s church service and updates on curling results and player recoveries.
