MUCH ENTHUSIASM SHOWN ORGANIZATION MEETING

IN FIRE HALL

AT

A Personal Triumph

Endorsation of the labor. Hydro and financial policies of the Hep- hum administration of the past three and a half years was given by the electors of Ontario in no uncertain terms in Wednesday’s Provincial balloting when the Liberal party polled- only a little short of the record high obtained In 1934. The final party standing as issued by the Canadian 'Press gave Liberals 63 seats, Conservatives 23, Lib-Prog. 2, Ind.-Lib., 1, and U.P.O. 1.

Counting Liberals, Liberal Progres- sives, Independent Liberal and Ü.F.O., the Government will have 67 supporters in the next legislature against 23 Conservatives. These figures compare favorably with the 70 Government supporters in the last legislature.

Two Cabinet Ministers lost their seats, Hon. Duncan Marshall in Peel nnd Hon. J. A. Faulkner, in Hastings ,W''est. All the other Cabinet members, Mr. Hepburn in Elgin, Mr. Simpson In iSlmcoe Centre, Hon. Paul Leduc in East Ottawa, Hon. Harry Nixon, in Brant, Hon. Peter Heenan, in Kenora ÆHd Hon. T. B. McQuesten in Hamll- tcn-Wentworth, were re-elected, the Premier Increasing his majority in his own riding to 5,306.

Hon. Earl Rowe, leading the Con- servative opposition, failed to secure a seat, Hon. L. J. Simpson, Minister of Education, retaining his riding Sim- -ooê Centre, by almost 1,000 majority. George S. Henry, former Premier of Ontario, retained York East, which ^ he has represented since 1913, and it is considered probable that Mr. Henry will retain his Conservative House leadership.

One of the, major Issues of the election was Premier Hepburn’s attitude towards the Committee tor Industrial organization, headed by John L. Le- wis. When the United Automobile workers called a strike at Oshawa, Mr. Hepburn took a strong stand against what he termed the lawless methods of the organization. Gordon Conant ,the Liberal candidate was elected in Ontario county, which in- cludes the city of Oshawa.

Arthur Roebuck in Toronto-Bell- woods, and David Croll in WindsOT- ■Walkerville, the two Ministers who broke with the Premier on the C.I.O. issue, were returned as Liberal candidates. Two of three men mentioned by Premier Hepburn as slated for cabinet posts won their seats. Eric W. Cross and Harold Kirby were elected, while Colin A. Campbell ran a close race in Addington but lost out to W.

Toxoid Clinics

Miss MacDonald was rushed tc hospital where she was found to ' be suffering from multiple fractures. Both arms and one leg were broken, several ribs were fractured, and she also suffered se- vere head and internal injuries. Her condition was regarded as critical from the start, and she gradually weakened until her death at 1.30 Mon- day morning.

A daughter of John J. MacDonald, deceased was born at North Lancas- ter, where she spent her youth. Later she made her home in Montreal and for a number of years resided in Boston, Mass., before moving to Corn- wall 18 months ago to make her home. She was joined in June by her sister, Mrs. Ale.x Lyman, 88 years of age, tand the sisters resided at 30a Prince Arthur street south.

Prior to the accident Miss Mac- Donald had left the house about six o’clock to mail a letter and is thought to have lost her way. When she failed to return, neighbors became worried, and notified to'wnship police. They had begun their search when Dally report- ed the accident at the police station. In addition to Mrs. Lyman, Miss MacDonald leaves another sister, Miss Hattie MacDonald, North Lancaster, and a niece Miss Margaret Barry, who

[he Scollisli HigBlanils Ihe Isle el Skye

(Sarah M. Urquhart) This summer, in addition to my

tour of England, Fi’ance, Belgium and Holland, I had the pleasure of paying an extended visit to the Highlands of Scotland and Isle of Skye. Thinking that many Glengarrians would be interested, I have prepared a brief outline of this motor trip.

We left Edinburgh at 9 a.m., second of August. It was a cold, misty morning—typical Scottish weather. By 11 o’clock w’e were in Stirling and before going on had a most refreshing cup of black tea and the usual scones, cakes and shortbread.

Leaving Stirling, we drove on to the tranquil village of Doune, thence along the River Teith to Callander and the Pass of Leny, the glorious gateway to the Western Highlands, The pass is only about a quarter of a mile long so w'e stopped to walk through it, following a narrow patn by a rocky mountain stream. While doing so I was more than thrilled to hear the skirl of the bagpipes as a ‘kiltie’ piped by the way.

The sun was shining as we travelled to Glencoe, through scenes of the wildest and most rugged description. Again we stopped when we reache 1 the Pass of Glencoe to walk througn the narrowest and considered the most beautiful part of the pass. Further on Was the lonely spot where the Mac- Donalds were massacreed by the Campbells on a bitter cold winter’s night (1692).

Lodging for the night was secured at the Craig Dhe Hotel at Onich. The weather was awfullly cold and I certainly appreciated finding a hot water bottle (an aluminum one) under the blankets.

Next morning (Aug. 3,) we continued our way on “The Road to the Isles’’ through Scotland’s most wildly pi:- turesque country. The journey was in truth a succession of marvellous vistas, and, many glorious panoramas of mountain, moor, loch and glen were unfolded as the car wound its way along the steep mountain sides. We passed through Laggan and a few moments later skirted the shores of Loch Garry in Glen Garry. It is almost knpossible for me to describe the beauty$ef Loch Garry, but if you can

An honor never previously bestowed on a resident of the Diocese of Alexandria was conferred on James E. Talion, of Cornwall, by His Excellency the Most Rev. Felix Couturier, O.P., D.D., at High Mass in St. Columban’s Church, at 10,30 o’clock Sunday morning,.when Mr. Tal- ion was formally invested with the Knighthood of St. Gregory. This Knighthood is a papal honor conferred by His Holiness Pope Pius XI upon Mr. Talion in recognition of his long and faithful service in the interests of Cathc- lic education in Cornwall.

After the singing of the Gospel of the Mass, at which the pastor, Eev. J. M. Foley, officiated. His .Excellency the Most Rev. Felix Couturièr, O.P., D D., Bishop of the Diocese of Alexandria, accompanied by Rev. W.J.Smith, D.C.L.' Chancellor, of Alexandria, Rev. R. J ■ MacDonald and Rev. D. A. Kerr, of St' Columban’s, entered the Sanctuary, im- parting his blessing and preaching cn Catholic education. From his text of the gospel of the day, the Bishop showed the necessity of teaching Chlfist in season and out of season. Christ was the Way, the Truth and the Life. Many philosophers, ancient and modern, he said, claimed to be the way and the truth, but none claimed to be the Life. Only Christ alone could make such a claim. The most solemn duty of parents was to train and educate their children in the teachings of Christ from their very infancy.

It was to reward James Edward Talion for his interest in Catholic education and recognize his forty years of service' as secretary of the Separate School Board, that the Holy Father. Pqpe Pius XI, at the request of the Bishop, of Alexandria, conferred the Knighthood of St. Gregory on Mr. Talion. The Bishop pointed out that this earthly honor kas not to be

Thanksgiving Testival At Apple Hill

Apple Hill is celebrating the Thanksgiving festival, Monday evening with a special Chicken Supper and a big concert. The Junior Violin Cham- pionship of Eastern Ontario .will be decided on this occasion and a real night of enjoyment is in store for all.

imagine the loch as a veritable mirror—tJie various colours of the trees, the heather, the rocks, the shadows, aU perfectly reflected In the water, you have a never-to-be-forgotten picture.

Close by the road in Laggan is a well called the “Well of the Seven Heads,” and near It a memorial at the top of which are seven carved heads. The following inscription, written in four different languages, two of which are English and Gaelic, appears on the memorial:

“As a memorial of the ample and summary vengeance, which in the swift course of feudal justice, inflicted by the order of the Lord MacDohnell and Aross, overtook the perpetrators of the foul murder of the Keppoch Fam- ily, a branch of the powerful and Il- lustrious clan of which his lordship was the Chief.

The heads of the seven murderers were presented at the feet of the no- ble Chief in Glen Garry Castle after having been washed in this spring, and now known as the 'Well of the Seven Heads.”

(Please turn to page 6)

Advantage was taken of Monday’s fine weather for the holding, that afternoon, of the annual Field Day at Alexandria High School, the various events being run off on the School grounds and the adjoining street. Many gra- duates and other friends of the School were interested onlookers and an en- couraging sum was realized when the hat was passed.

Principal J. T. Smith and his as- sistants were able to keep things go- mg smoothly and the programme of events was run off without interrup- tion excepting in one instance, when a runaway horse leant a touch of excitement and possible danger to the day’s activities.

Campbell MacGillivray and Joan Gormley are holders of the championship cups in the senior divisions as a result of the day’s programme of sports. MacGillivray was hard pressed to nose out Reg. Cheney in the boys’ events, the respective point to- tals being 18—16. Joan Gormley won the senior girls’ Championship with a point score of 16, Maisle Hope and Myrtle McLeod tieing for the runner- up position with 12 points.

In the junior division, Howard Ken- nedy lead his mates with 21 points. Bums Chisholm taking second with 1C. Jessie MacGillivray easily out- pointed her junior girl competitors with 18 to the 8 chalked up by Ther- esa. O’Connor.

Children from the other schools were interested and active spectators, and they were given their chance in special 100-yard dariies. Abraham Rosenberg, lead home the boys, being hard pressed by Athol Johnston gnd Jack McCallum. Louise Macdonald breasted the tape first in the girls’ section, with Pierrette Brabant and Muriel Campeau, second and third.

Competition was keen in most in- stances and the meet was well worth j while from a spectator’s viewpoint. II is too bad the High School Athletic Association is not better suppored by townspeople generally in this annual event.

E(dmund A. MacGillivray, Alexandria, Keeps Glengarry in Line WitFi Smashing Victory

Over Jos. St. Denis

RECORD MAJORITY OF 3439 AS 49 POLLS GO LIBERAL ' ,\

Glengarry’s Member

Traditionally Liberal, Glengarry sends another Hepburn candidate to Toronto, as a result of Wednesday’s voting, Edmund A. MacGillivray, Alexandria piling up a huge plurality over his Conservative opponent, Jos. St. Denis, Vankleek Hill, to set a new high in majorities in this riding, at 3,439.

Unofficial complete returns for the 53 polls in the riding show ^lac- Gillivray with 6,753 votes and St. Denis with 3,314. The majority of 2,434 rolled up by the Ia.te Jas A. Sangster in the 1934 election was considered a record in Glengarry and Mr. MacGillivray’s plurality exceeds that by 1,005. The official count may chang'e the figures somewhat but will make no appreciable dlff^ence.

In line with sweeping victories across Ontario, voters in this riding showed their approval of the clean, business-like administration of the Hepburn regime, but the huge vote poUed for Mr. MacGillivray is, at the same time, an indication of his popu- larity throughout the Glengarry electoral district. The big Liberal vote of Caledonia, and West Hawkesbury re- mained solidly behind Mr. McGiili- vray, though a smaller majority frean that district might reasonably have, been expected. The Conservative candidate even failed to carry his home towm, Vankleek Hill.

Alexandria, the home of the Liberal standard-bearer, gave him a splendid majority of 458, this comparing favorably with hte 160 Liberal majority of Sangster against Villeneuve in 1934.

Only four polls of the 53 comprising this electoral district gave St. Denis majorities, and these were negligible when compared to the huge Liberal to- ' tal. Laggan and Kirk Hill were the two polls in Glengarry proper to go Conservative, Aberdeen, in West Hawkesbury, and Skye, in Caledonia, joining them for a combined majority of 63. MacGillivray’s majority of over

-2,500 in -the remaining 49 pedis more, than counteracted this and set up ."v new record for the riding.

. A large and happy crowd awaited i'esults at the boards set up in front of the Liberal Committee Rooms, here. First. results for Glengarry polls were in shortly after eight o’clock and as the Liberal plurality continued to mount the excitement grew. Poor radio reception prevented accurateass^- blying of outside results hy that means, and local headquarters of the Bell Telephone were made use o^ la tabulating the results.

Both Glengarry and the ■ Province had been conceded Liberal at 9 o’clock and shortly thereafter, the new candidate addressed the large number assembled on the street. Mr. MacGillivray declared himself a very, happy man, expressed his gratitude for the loyal and tireless work of his Committee, and promised that every citizen, no. matter what his politics, would find a true friend and willing helper in Eddie MacGillivray.

Results were posted on the boards until midnight but it was some time later before the streets quieted down. A great Liberal victory was being celebrated in Alexandria, Wednesday evening , and tin-pan parades, processions, etc., added to the din.

There was very little difference in the number of votes cast in this riding, Wednesday’s total of 10,067 being 262 lower than in 1934. The town of Alexandria had two more voters than in the last Provincial election.

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS ^ ^ ^ ^

CLEAN UP FOR WINTER

Cold weather will soon be here. Pall work is crowding many in the harvesting of fall crops before they are destroyed by frost or quick, early freezes. Many times some of the more important fall duties are overlooked during, this rush time.

The tender' croirs are harvested first. These crops include ■ beans, cucumbers, eggplants, peppers, pumpkins and squash. At the first indication of a frost, many of these crops may even be picked green and place in hotbeds or taken into the barn or under cover, afteit which time they will ripen. To- matoes, especially, should be picked green and protected, and if properly ea,red for will ripen until after October.

Sow a winter cover crop on all vacant ground. This winter cover crop may be planted any time to within 3 of 4 weeks of freezing weather. The most common crop for late planting is rye. This rye will soon germinate and grow and will produce a green covering over the ground during the winter months. Bye will also prevent the leaching of nitrogen from the soil during the wintertime. Destroy weeds and all crop residues possible. Dur- ing the winter, weeds harbor insects and diseases common to vegetable crops.

Before freezing weather approaches, liquid sprayers, inrigation systems and other farm equip- ment in which water is used should be carefully drained. The pumps of liquid sprayers should be taken apart to see,that there is no water présent. The spray tank should be half filled with water so that it does not dry out excessively during the winter months. Irrigation lines should be discon- nected and all moving parts dra,ined. The supply lines must be drained at the lowest point. Water in farm tractors and other engines should be drained.

Clean the machinery and farm implements before storing them for the winter. Fertilizer drills and lime drills are easily cleaned by washing them thoroughly with a good stiff, stream of water. Af- ten the machine is thoroughly dried it should be sprayed with a thin lubricating or penetrating oil. Bring the machinery in from the field and store it under cover.—C. H. NISSLEY, in Country Gentle- man 0 CANADIAN HONEY

The beekeeping season in Canada proved in 1936 to he one of the best on record. Net since 1931 has honey production reached such a high level as during the past season, and there have been only two years when the production was higher. The previous high crops.jweBe.»2S>-5.4?>00Q,.. pounds in 1930 and 29,666,000 pounds in 19.3i: Ijast year the honey crop amounted to 28,241,000 pounds as compared with 24,291,000 pounds in 1935. The increase last year, therefore, was 3,950,000 pouiids or 16.3 per cent.

Canada is a considerable exporter, and a small importer, of honey. In the eight -months ended with March last exports of honey amounted to 2,296,288 pounds valued at $192,666 ; while imports durhig the same peniod were 20,259 pounds valued at $2,701. In the full crop year ended with July 1936, imports of honeyl were 29,744 pounds valued at $2,365; while exports for the sa,me period amounted to 2,228,429 pounds with a value of $170,- 019.

Coincident with the rise in honey production, beeswax output likewise showed a,n increase. Pro- duction for 1936 is estimated by the Dominion Bur- eau of Statistics at 342,110 pounds as compared with 293,040 pounds in 1935. The value of the beeswax production increased from $79,440 in 1935 to '$84,110 in 1936 ; while the value of the honey yield advanced from $2,027,200 to $2,385,600. o

In the first attempt made in Canada toward the official certification of qualified egg graders, 16 certificates ha.ve been issued in Nova Scotia as the result of a competition held recently. The candidates were required to pass a rigid test in egg grading, says the Dominion Department of Agri- culture, as well as a written test on the theory of grading. Thirty-two applicants sat for the competition, The certificates are valid for six months, to be renewed if the graders live up to the required standard of efficiency. 0

i SELLING SEASON FOR APPLES

Applegrowers frequently sell their fruit at the wrong time and fail to get the best prices as a result. This does not come so much from guessing wrong about the market as from holding the fruit past its natural season.

The chances of making big profits by holding . apples late in the season get less each year because the qr|op is so closely estimated that the prices set in the fall approximate later prices, when carrying costs are considered.

Each of the major varieties has a natural season when it is at its best and buyers are looking for the variety. During that period there is a more active demand than there is before or after. With some of the whiter varieties this period extends over a number of weeks, so there is plenty of time to appraise the Situation and select the best probable selling period.

But regardless of what the usual limits are for a given variety, the fruit should not be held after it begins to become mealy, as happens with Delicious and Spitzenburgs, or after it starts to scald, as with Greenings, Ba.ldwins and Yorks. Once fruit begins to show these types of breakdown, selling should proceed rapidly, as buyers will begin to be cautious about all fruit of that* variety.

Probably the most common mistake of all ■. is that owners of apples- hope for a better market a little later in the season and hold the fruit past its best condition. When this occurs the fnuit will sell for less money if prices remain steady, and may even sell for less on q rising market.

Even sound-condition fruit should not be held past the normal season for the variety. To do so, oftes i-esnlts in losses because the trade has turned to other varieties and is no longer interested in the earlier fruit. 0

AGRICULTURAL DEPT. TO HANDLE DROUGHT RELIEF

All forms of relief in the drought regions of Saskatchewan and Alberta will hereafter be ad- ministered by the Department of Agriculture. La- bor Minister Norman L. Rogers announced yesterday.

This means that the Department of Labor will cease to supervise or administer direct relief in the drought areas,” Mr. Rogers said. “That responsi- bility will now be assumed by the Department of Agriculture.

“The change is in conformity with the recom- mendation of the National Employment Commis- sion that different groups of relief recipients should be segregated and that agricultural assistance should be distinguished as far as possible from unemployment relief.”

0 DRYING UP HEAVY MILKERS

Drying up heavy milking eow'S at the end of their lactation period is sometimes such a problem for the dairyman that Prof. W. W. Yapp and other members o f the dairy dept, of the University of Ill- inois have developed a special method which they now use on all cows in the institution’s herd.

When a cow gets down to twenty-five or thirty pounds of milk a day, her udder is milked out thoroughly and then disinfected with a chlorine solution. Each teat is then disinfected with .full-strength iodine and sealed with collodion. The cow is then put on half feed and kept in the barn for seventy- two hours to prevent the seals’ being biwken. As soon as resorption stops, the cow is put back on full feed and handled as any ordinar.y cow. 0

MAKE A STUDY OF FARM SOIL The fa.rmer should know his soil and have a

sound basis for every step in its treatment. Build- ing up the productivity of a soil to a high level and then maintaininig it;- is an achievement for which every farmer should strive. The business of farming should be conducted as intelligently and as carefully as a manufacturing business. Every process must be understOoid and. regulated, from the raw material to the finished product, in order to be uniformly successful. The farmer’s factory is his farm. Different soils present different problems. It Âlr.ifflBortanUJlverefore,. tjjaU sqilS'.bq studied and understood in order that the production of crops may be most satisfactory, and profitable. No system of soil management can be satisfactory that does not in the long rmi bring profitable returns. Some soil treatments and methods of management may be profitable for a, tinie, but ruinous in the end. One-sided or unbalanced soil treatments have been altogether too common in the history of farming in this countr,y. A properly balanced system of treatment will make almost any soil profitably pro- ductive. 0

FALL PIGS NEED GOOD START

Early Fall pigs can be raised at a profit, if the suri-uundings qre sanitary and there is no skimping of the feed for the sow and for the young pigs either before or after weaning.

It is important that Fall pigs be farrowed reasonably early and fed liberally so as to give them a good start before cold weather. Late Fall farrowing, unsanitary conditions, and underfeeding result in backward pigs.

Forage or pasture with its excellent nutritive properties tends to correct the deficiencies of the ration. But Fall pigs can have forage on pasture for a short time only before they must be jdaced in Winter quarters. Hence the feeding of a fully ade- quate ration is of greater importance with Fall pigs than with Spring pigs.

To push the pigs along a,nd keep them gain- ing, the sows with their Fall litters should be pla ced on fresh clean pasture that is not contaminated with the eggs of round worm and preferably that has not been grazed by hogs for several yearfe. In- testinal woi'ms are as great a menace to Fall pigs as to Spring pigs.

Giving young pigs access to feed in a creep which the sows cannot enter, will keep them grow- ing vigdrously. They will us)aally begin eating grain when three or four weeks old. If accustomed

■to eating they will not suffer a setback when wean- ed. n

SAYS PURE SEED IS NECESSARY

WINNIPEG, Oct, 4.—^Need for some permanent roganization, such as a seed purchasing commission, to assist Canadian farmers through purchase of seed each year was emphasized before the Turgeon Royal Grain Commission today by F. L. Dickinson, vice-president of the Canadian Seed Growers’ Association.

Presenting the brief of his association, Mr. Dickinson said many seed growers have difficulty, especially in recent years, in financing their opera- tions, more particularly during the period after threshing a,nd until the seed is sold in the Spring.

He requeste>d the commission to consider the problem of the ability of seed growers to hold the high quality seed they have produced on their farm until it is required several months later for Spring sowing.

Pure seed is a necessary provision if Canada is to retain her present status in world grain mar- kets, Mr. Dickinson said.

His brief dealt extensively with the history and operation of the C.S.G.A. and suggested that the Dominion Government grant to the association should be increased. _

Junglefow!, of Pheasant Family, Daddy of Poultry

The Chinese ring-neck is one of about 108 species of pheasants which inhabit all parts of the world that lie in the temperate zones and the tropics, and so not only fur- nishes sport and food to civilized man but to the savages of the jun- gles. The red jtinglefowl, a member of the pheasant family, is the ancestor of all varieties of our do- mestic poultry, thus again empha- sizing the importance of the genus, according to an official of the De- troit chapter of the Izaak Walton league.

The most gorgeously plumed pheasants are the tropical species, and among these the Tragopans stand supreme, with magnificent plumage of cherry red or crirnson, interspersed with other harmonizing colors of delicate shade. To add to their beauty, nature has equipped them with brilliantly colored wat- tles. The tragopans are extremely shy birds and inhabit areas that are not easily accessible to man.

Among the long-tailed pheasants, beautiful in form 'but not so rich in coloration, is the Chinese Silver pheasant, with a long hairy crest and breast of purple. His silvery tail is considerably longer and bush- ier than that of the ringneck. The Reeves’ pheasant, also a native of China, carries an exceptionally long tail, but the feather colorings are more subdued.

Outside of the tropics we find the plumage of all species of pheasants a varied mixture of brown, orange, gold and purple, but body shapes differ, some being stubby and others elongated.

Balloons First Used in War by France, in 1794

Balloons were first put to a military use in France, states a writer in the Chicago Daily News. At the battle of Fleurus in Belgium on June 26, 1794, Capt. J. M. Coutelle, the world’s first military balloon ob- server, floated in his balloon, L’Entreprenant (the Venturesome), above the cannon flashes and clouds of smoke of the opposing French and Austrian armies. By signaling with flags to the French artillery, Coutelle demoralized the Austrians and was an important factor in the French victory.

During the siege of Paris in 1870- 1871, balloons played a strategic part. Cut off from supplies by Ger- mans surrounding the city, starving Parisians were reduced to eating rats and zoo animals. Their only means of contact with the outside world was by balloon. Dozens of them, like great striped gourds, were hastily ^made in railway sta- tions.

Between September, 1870, and the following January, about sixty- eight rose from Paris, soared safely over the circle of German gunfire, and enabled 164 Parisians to escape. One of their' most famous passengers was the French statesman Gambetta, who took the French government with him to Tours, where he set up his headquarters and organized fresh troops which offered the Germans fiehCe.'but vain fesist- aricé. Other passengers were pig- eons, which afterward brought back news to the besieged city.

The Mixed Hand The mixed hand, as the name im-

plies is a mixture of any, or all, of the other types. Some of the fingers may be pointed,- and the others square. The palm may be conic while the fingers belong to two or three different types. The mixed hand is the sign of the versatile, adaptable person, according to a palmist in Pearson’s London Week- ly. If you happen to belong to this class, then you are bound to be an interesting conversationalist who knows a bit about most things, but hot necessarily a lot about anything in particular. On the whole, this is a fairly successful type of hand.

Piracy by Warships Until 1820 Turkish warships oper-

ating from North African ports as pirates used to terrorize the com- merce of the M^J'l^I’t'anean. Cap- tive sailors were carried off by them to the slave market in Algiers or the prisons in Sallee. It was frotn Malta that resistance was most ef- fectively organized by the Knights of St. John, who held the island until it was surrendered by their grand master to Napoleon in 1798 The island passed to Britain by the peace of the Amiens (1802).—Rocky Mountain Herald.

CIlief Seger’s lime y Leller On Fire Prevention

My Dear Editor: May I again have the privilege to

ask your assistance through the press to help out the great cause of Fire Prevention work, as the week of October 3rd to 9th has been dedicated to campaign against huge losses to life and property by fire, and this gives the firemen an opportunity to serve the community.

■When the bell hits or the whistle blows the firemên never say “It’.s too hot, or it’s too cold, or I don’t think that it v/ill do any good to go.” and today another call to battle against the flames is sent out to every Fire Department throughout Canada, It is the signal for the annual Fire Prevention v/eek Campaign.

All Fire Departments answer the Fire Prevention Week call with just as mucht ardor an ddeaermlnation a.s shown in an actual battle with tha flames, because they realize that a fire prevented is a more creditable ac- complishment than the most efficient “stop” ever made with a water line. Fire Prevention costs nothing, but even the smallest fire wastes the money and the time of community. ’There is never a fire without some loss.

The Importance of “good house- keeping” both as an assurance of fire prevention and community health and appearance has led to the development of special Fire Prevention Clean-Dp campaigns which have been successfully held in many cities fos several years. Added impetus to the spring clean up campaigns has developed with recognition of the fact that cleanliness has a far reaching' effect on the impression a city makes not only on its visitors but on its ow.n citizens.

No estimate can be made of the actual cash value represented by the saving of life and the improvement in health and property resulting dir- ectly from an Annual Clean-up Campaign. It removes disease breed- ers which may cause pestilence elim- inates fire haz.ards which might lead to conflagrations and reduces other limitations to municipal development. The money and effort spent on a Clean-Up Campaign is real Mimici- pal advertising. The more inviting a city can be made, the more people will come and enjov it.

The actual objective of the campaign must be constantly kept in mind however, if the public-spirited effort that goes into the work of Fire Pre- vention Week, is to be rendered truly effective. The purpose of fire Pre- vention week is two-fold; to emphasize in the public mind the enormous waste Involved in the lire loss, and se- condly, to enlist the co-operation of all elements in the community' in effecting an actual reduction of this fire waste, not only during Fire Pre- vention 'Week, but throughout the fif- ty-two weeks of the year.

When we come to the question of “Fire Prevention” there are three main points to consider: First a good citizen will try in every way to avoid being a cause of danger through per- mitting any of the practices that we have been warned about. Second, he will remove all dangerous conditions that he may find in his own home, and Third, he will train himself to recognize dangerous conditions in the community and will use his influence both to have them removed and to educate others to the habit of carefulness. It is often said that the enormous fire loss with Its terrible destruction of life and property Is very largely preventable. Statistics prepared by the Fire Marshal’s office through Its Actuarial Bureau will show , how foolish and unnecessary are the causes for most of the fires. The correction must come not merely from better lire departments and better building laws, but from educating every family and every member of every family to recognize causes of danger and practice habits of consideration and carefulness. If this could be done fire would almost cease to be a- pubUc peril. If| each and all of us would learn how to prevent fire and would form habits of carefulness and consideration it would go far in saving life and property. Each and everyone of us to this extent would be a good citizen. DON’TS AND WARNINGS FOR FIRE

PREVENTION Don’t allow children to play with i

matches. Don’t throw away lighted matches,

cigars or cigarettes. Don’t go into dark closets, bedrooms

Or cellars using matches or candles to light your way.

Don’t use kerosene or gasoline in lighting fires or to quicken a slow fire It may result In death.

Don’t use gasoline or benzine to clean clothing near an open flame, hght or fire.

Don’t fill any lamp or stove with gasoline, or coal oil while they are

lighted. Keep the burners of all lamps and stoves thoroughly clean. Fill them during the day time.

Don’t put ashes in -wooden boes or barrels. Keep ashes away from boards. Hot ashes will take fire by themselves as frequently they have small bits of coal mixed in with them'.

Don’t accumulate rubbish in premises, cellars or workshops, and don’t

Don’t put ashes in wooden boxes or barrels unless It is to be removed at once; while awaiting removal kee.o such material in covered metal recep- tacles. Don’t use candles on Christ- mas trees.

Don’t keep matches in anything but a closed metal receptacle. Use safety matches. Don’t have storage closets under stairways. Fires in these places cut off your main exit.

Don’t store, oils, paints, grease or fats in the hoose. Keep them outside if possible. If you must have such things on hand put them in a metal box with a lid on It.

Don’t put in the ash barrel such articles as greasy paper, oily rags or waste which has been used to wipe machinery. Such articles cause many fires. Burn these things immediate- ly after use.

Don’t neglect to have the chimney flue cleaned once a year. Don’t have lace curtains in the vicirfity of gas jets. I

Don’t leave holes in the flooring, walls or ceiling. These enable fires to travel throughout the building -when once started.

Don’t pour gasoline or naphtha down the drain. Pour it on the ground if you must get rid of it. One pint of

gasoline, makesi two himdred feet of explosive vapor .One gallon of gasoline has substantially the power equal to 89 lbs. of dynamite Don’t set kitchen or heating stoves close to woodwork. Put metal shields behnnd the stove. Leave a little air space behind the shield. Bright tin is the best protector if not placed right up against the wood work.

Don’t leave doors of heaters or kitchen stoves open unless you provide a wire screen or net to catch live coals which may drop out.

Don’t tamper with or extend electric wires. Employ an electrician.

Don’t keep gasoline other than in airtight metal cans painted red.

Don’t fail to warn children of the dangerous bonfire.

■When in a place of public assembly- such as a* moving picture show, theatre, dance hall, lecture hall, etc. look around and note the nearest exit to you. In case of fire or panic walk, not run, to that exit, and do not try to beat your neighbor to the street.

Let me ask every citizen to join in the work of lire Prevention 'Week. Let us make our Town as clean and attractive as safe from fire, and as free from disease as any city In the province. ’The success of the “clean- up” depends upon everyone taking part. Many disastrous fires are caused by the accumulation of rubbish-papers, boxes, etc. about houses, In attics, cellars and yards.

TThis is a business proposition as well as a matter of civic pride and health. A thorough observance of this “Clean-Up Week; may prevent a con-

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN w w w w

PICTURE YOURSELF LIKE THIS

Mary Grace Ramey, Tn Country Gentleman Take a look in the mirror. What do you see?

Yourself as you are in your slightly faded summer dress; your hair a bit frizzly with your left-over permanent held in place with a halo ; your hose also fade^d with the tan^ of summer sun tan gone ; toe- less shoes, and, dominating it all, a figure slightly sagged and a bit too plump for chie?

But w'hat picture would you like to smile back at you? If you are young and gay and hope for chic —you would like to have a slim, svelte figure peer- ing at you, crowned with a .smokestack turban sweeping high off your head, with an upward and forward movenfent, topping smooth locks that curl sleekly away from your face and with a, hint ot the page-boy bob in the back. A sophisticated hair- do, but with none of that set and curled, ready for a party look which you wear when you come straight from the hairdresser. Maybe, young as you are, you cannot wear the high as high hat — then you would like to see yourself wearing a brim, but a, wide in front duckbill, a favorite of Agnes, who designs for smart Parisians and whose models are copied almost before they come out by little millin- ers over the ■world.

The brim is wide only in front because it must leave room for your coat collar. For this being fall 1937, your interest lies in coats The new wrap reflected in this prophetic mirror combines fabric and fur, lots of fur, paneled, banded or a straight half-and-half, so much fur you cannot tell whether it’s a fur coat trimmed with the smooth sleek fabric coat lavishly decorated with fur. It may be a knee- length swagger type, cut very loose, or one of the new soft tweeds trimmed with opposum, a ‘ new favorite in the fur -world. Look again,'it may be a coat with wide panels of seal, and when you consider it canefully you see that it is the old family heirloom cut up and combined with fabric to make you a smart as smart winter wrap.

You wear gloves—simple, plain ones, well cat and nicely stitched, but not in contrasting color. The colored glove has been a bit overdone and we are tired of seeing our hands made conspi- cuous. Gloves ma,tch - .the coat and that’s that! There’s a lot of excitement in the new handbag, ne- vertheless. It is square in outline and, four chances »ut of five, it has tricky handles. If you are seeing yourself in a dressy outfit your-bag wil be of antelope with a polished top frame and cord handles. If you can’t bear long handles, and there are some women who feel this way it may be a black antelope sausage roll with a double gilt frame. You open the hag by pulling two leather loops. If you are wearing a eoat of the. new rich-brown tweed you may be carrying a bag of alligator with a slide-fastener top and two sturdy^ metal loops.

Beneath the short hem-,of .your coat, for your coat need not be long to cover your twelve to four- teen inch from the floor frock, you see sleek, well- clad feet wearing shoes on the pump order, slip-ons in other words. High cut and naturally, as you are dressed for winter, '^vith toes, thank goodness 1 , If your eoat is dressy the footwear is suede, heels slen- der and graceful, not very high, or with the lowish square heel that goes for street shoes. Most often the pump has some high, decoration; in the front, a rolled top, a pleated tongue or a fitted high tongue that rolls over just slightly at the top.

With your tweedy coat you will wear polished celfskin shoes, grand and comfortable and neat as possible. Decoration on shoes has gone to some extent—we look for line and a smooth sleekness when we look into the shoe future. Wear brown shoes with brown, and .black shoes with black.

Your stockings will be lovely, smooth, and sheer as you can wear them, a rosy undertone for stockings expect to be animated in color. They make a smart contrast with your black outfit and also look well with the warm rich browns, the black-toned greens and reds which are the colors of winter. Stockings with a coppery note are particularly lovely with the winter-sports colors.

If your costume is very, dressy you will be wearing hose in a sun tone cast with a hint of blush. This is a lighter complement to formal afternoon and evening clothes, for it blends with beige and also looks well with blues. Should you be dressing in white for evening, this shade of hose will be attractive with your formal gown. •

After you have gazed your fill and admired your reflection in this magic mirror, slip off your dressy coat a.nd see your sleek frock. It will pro- babl-jr be black, frosted with white and splashed with a touch of brilliant color. Because you are young and, we hope, slim, it will be shirred, with fullness to soften your figure’s weakest points and to emphasize its strong ones. If its mission is to give you height it will have panels of shirring from the shoulders to the hem ; if it is to give your hips the appearance of slenderness, the bodice will have pretty, crosswise shirrings; it may have a wide boat neck caught gracefully on the shoulders with folds of fabric. The cdldr comes in a splashy clip a flower discreetly used or a string of heads that lie close to your neck half hidden by the open bodice or boldly over its front below the higher neckline.

If it .is a.sporty tweed co.af you slip off, you’ll see yourself wearin^f a military frock of flannel, or a tailore>d frock of heavy rayon with a wide-laced belt for contrast. It »:iR,.,lje a .simple, tailored costume ill a, èôlor that'tSiies in with the lovely shade of your eoat.

Suppose you are plump and f ortyish, what then Not so very^mueh difference in the reflection in the mirror. Yoiir hat will be a softer version of the smokestack, perhaps'a draped beret model that flares high at one side, or it will have a brim that shades and softens the lines about your eyes, but with height at the back and sides to give" it chic. THe-frmming -will be soft. Velvet is the most flattering fabric a woman can put next to her face. Your ha.ia will be trimpied well—no page-boy bob for you. It will be cut or rolled up, off the back of

youn neck, but it will not have a painfully set look. Your coat will be on the same gracefully full lines

with a less extreme cut, and it will be of the same black, not so much sheen, or a very dark bro-\vn, burgundy or green. The fur will be softer and more flattering and not so much of it. On you Avill be wearing a fur coat. Persian, seal, mink, caracul, these flatter furs are your choice, with no contrast in the collar.

Your dress will be more carefully cut, an inch or so longer than the younger woman’s. Figures at forty need more flattery. But the draped lines are excellent for you—soft and becoming necklines, jiice V’s with touch of white to relieve the hareh contrast of dark material against a throat beginning to be lined. You v.dll look as sma.rt or smart- er Than the younger woman, because you will have devoted more thought to planning your costume and more time for grooming—keeping 3’’our skin fresh, your hair neat and your garments in perfect order.

Because it is a winter picture you are seeing does not' mean that you will be wearing plain fab- rics all of the time. Prints are smart the year round; they are especially good for informal dresses. Quite exciting are the prints \vhich use the themes of your favorite songs as their inspiration. The older woman will delight in the dignified design of the Kashmiri song, while the child will adore the gay swinging figures of Swing High, Swing Low. Oh, this promises to be an interesting winter as far as dress is concerned.

And now to make this dream come true. We must know our fashions, study'what’s the vogue, then adapt the best of the new styles to our own uses. Coats, unless we are more clever than usual, must be bought ready-made, but even the village tailor can help us adapt a last year’s mode to this year’s style, if we overselves know what’s what. It is in making our dresses that we can save money and have exactly what we want. A few ya.rds of good material made up carefully turns into a dress that is really our own. It has fit and individuality and will be of better material than a ready-to-wear at the same cost. 0

PROTECTION THROUGH SEALING

By Betty Barclay Glass packed foods have assumed a trimmer

beauty and a greater practical and economic value. A new process technically known as vapor-vacuum sealing which hermetically seals foods packed in glass has accomplished this triple feat.

But what does this process do for Mrs. Con sumer? This, after all, is the important thing. First of all, foods packed in glass under this process are definitely more attractive, for this type of seal per- mits the use of a cap with a baked eiiamel lining that gives a neat tailored appearance to the bottle. And the cap, because of its pailtioular kind of lining, imparts no foreign odor to the food it protects. These caps, unlike other caps, can be removed easily. Lifting with the flat side of a table knife does the trick. No damage is done Ihe cap when it is removed which means that the efficiency of the lid is not impaired and it serves as a. competent covering until the contents of the jar have been used.

More important than beauty of package, however, is the protection this type of seal affords all foods that come under the magic of its seal. Let’s consider what it does for mayonnaise which is one of the most perishable products packed in glass.

linden this hermetic seal all air from the headspace of the jar is removed, and a vacuum is creat- ed which takes effect when the cap is applied. Both headspace and cap have been made sterile. Natur- ally without air in the headspace and a sterile closure rancidity and discoloration of the mayonnaise are prevented. Possibility of separation of the mayonnaise is reduced because the product does not become old, and old products separate more easily than fresh. The fresh homemade flavors are retained.

All foods pa,eked in glass under the vapor- vacuum seal attain the same kind of protection as does mayonnaise—in other words this hermetic seal insures the freshness of the product.

MOCHA NUT PIE

Two squares unsweetened chocolate, 1 1-3 cups (1 can) sweetened 'condensed milk, 1-2 cup strong hot coffee, 1 cup walnut meats, 1 vanilla wafer pie crust, 1-2 cup heavy cream.

Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler. Add the sweetened condensed milk and stir over boiling water uiitil the mixture thickens. Add the coffee, stir until thoroughly blended and add 1-2 cup walnut meats. Pour into a pie plate that has been lined with vanilla wafer, crust. Cover with whipped cream and sprinkle with the remaining nuts. Chill thoroughly before serving. To make the crust, roll enough vanilla wafers to make 3-4 cup crumbs. Cut enough vanilla wafers in half to stand around the edge of a glass pie plate and put them in place. Cover the bottom of the plate with crumbs and fill in the spaces between the halved wafers. Pour in the fillnp; as usual. -o ^

Fruit Rice One tablespoon granulated gelatine, 1-4 cup

cold water, 1 cup hot cooked rice, 1-8 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons fruit sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1 cup whipping cream, 3-4 cup diced or crushed fruit, 1-4 cup blanched almonds.

Soak gelatine in cold water. Dissolve in hot rice. Add salt, sugar and vanilla. Cool and chill. When mixture begins to thicken, fold in whipped cream, fruit and nuts. Pineapple, peaches, bananas, strawberries, maraschino cherries, o« a combina- tion of fruits may be used.

Great Tooth of Buddha Honored in Gay Pageant

One of India’s most elaborate fes- tivals is the pageant of the Sacred Tooth of Buddha. The “perahera” lasts tor ten days, ending on the night of the “full moon.” Richly adorned chiefs, troups of masked dancers, gaily decorated elephants, brilliantly illuminated streets and colorful processions, turn the city into a festive center.

On the last night the climax is reached with one magnificent procession. Hundreds of elephants take part, and full-dress regalia is worn by the chiefs. In front of the elephants, whips are cracked and tom- toms and drums continually throb. Ever so often the procession halts while special dances take place.

One elephant attracts more attention than its fellows for on its back is carried the golden casket of the sacred tooth of Buddha. This sacred tooth is said to have been taken from the pyre, and is held in reverence by one-third of the world’s total population. The tooth is paraded around the streets and then taken back to the temple. Sur- rounded by a moat the temple dates back to the Thirteenth century. The library contains ancient manu- scripts, written with an iron stylus on talipot leaves.

Black Wido'w Spider Is More Deadly Than Snake

Old Mother Nature indulges in a grim joke sometimes, and she must have been in one of her “humorous,” moods when she creat- ed the Black Widow spider. This merry widow of the insect world is one of the nastiest of all the creepy-crawlies—a murderous and dangerous female.

Not only does she kill and eat her husband when she has no further use for him, but she can kill a man —in fact, she has sent many to their graves, asserts a writer in Pearson’s London Weekly.

The Black Widow is as tough as a gangster, too, and if you ever meet her, the only sure method of putting her out of action is to smash her with something hard, like a swatter or the back of a shovel.

Drop for drop, the Black Widow’s venom is more deadly than that of the rattlesnake.

Owing to its larger size, the rattlesnake injects much more poison than the Black Widow when it strikes, and, therefore, its death rate is higher—it.kiUs about one in three. The Black Widow kills about one in twenty, but she is more common, and bites more people, so that, in the course of a year, the Black Widow causes more human deaths than does the rattlesnake.

Meaning of Astrology Astrology is the “science” of

reading the fate of human beings in the stars. Astrology has a very long history; the first attempts to read the future by this means were made by the Babylonians, and thence spread to India and China. It reached Europe in the Middle ages, and became so prevalent that, in the Fifteenth century, no court was complete without its astrologer. Most of the monarchs of those days had the stars read before they started upon any plan or fight, says Lon- don Answers Magazine. Astrology must not be confused .with astrono- my, which is the science and study of the heavenly bodies and their re- lation to the earth. This also was, a subject studied by the ancient races, and as early as the. Seventh century B. C., students began to separate the true science of astron- omy from the pseudo-science of astrology.

“Four-Footed Toe Dancers” African antelopes, known as klip

springers, are also called “four- footed toe dancers,” because of the characteristic habit they have of poising themselves on the rocks in a position in which their feet re- semble those of a ballerina. They rank among the smallest and most interesting of antelopes, standing less than two feet at the shoulder. Extremely nimble, they climb upward in the mountains with great speed, agility and sureness of foot, while in downward leaps they safely negotiate gaps of thirty feet from one rocky ledge to another, stead- ied upon landing by their cup shaped “non-skid” hoofs.

Unjustified Attack on Indians Probably the most atrocious of

all the unjustified attacks on Indians by America’s sanguinary “Indian fighters” was the Sand Creek (Colo- rado) massacre on November 29, 1864, in which 900 soldiers swept into this peaceful village of Chey- enne and Arapaho Indians and murdered and scalped 300 men, women and children. The tragedy was later condemned by a congressional in- vestigating committee. — Collier’s Weekly.

influence of Nast’s Cartoons Thomas Nast (1840-1902) remains

the dominant figure in the history of American caricature because the influence of his cartoons has never been surpassed. Not only were they an important recruiting factor foi the North in the Civil war and also responsible for the overthrow of the Tweed Ring, says Collier’s Weekly, but they introduced the donkey to typify the. Demqcratic party, the elep.h^nt to represent ‘ the Republi- can party and .the tiger to symbol- ize Tammany Hall.

Regardless of what happens—“the show /must go on!'” In thousands of theatres throughout Ontario this same traditional rule still applies, but in a different way. Today, “the show must go on”—^with Hydro. The “Talkies” and Hydro, bring to the cities and the small towns alike', the best thé theatre offers in drama, music, comedy, while travelogues and news-reels bring a new form of education. Hydro also makes it possible to enjoy your theatre night right through the hottest season, with the aid of air conditioning and cooling systems, which the majority of theatres now provide. This same Hydro service that is essential for the “Talkies” is also necessary for night baseball, tennis, lawn bowling and other forms of night entertainment and sport, which electricity now mokes it possible to enjoy to a much greater degree.

Thus in the realm of entertainment and sport—as in so many other phases of activity—^^Hydro—your Hydro—makes an essential conbribution to a better, happier, healthier livelihood for the people of the Province of Ontario ■with its low-cost power. The success of Hydro in being able to lower power costs in the past two years in the face of a general increase in the price of practically evérything we use, is a noteworthy achievement. Its continuous efforts to lower these power costs still further, and extend the benefits which accrue throughout the Province of Ontario, is a matter in which you should be vitally interested.

After the reports of the treasurer and secretary had been read and adopted there was a discus- sion on what programme to give for the month of October. Several pro- jects were suggested, a play, a debate, a bean supper and programme, the travel story, “Scotland’s Wonderland,” on the screen and Bobby O’Reilly. Miss Dunlop made the motion, second- ed by Mrs. McRae that we have a Bobby O’Reilly programme early in October -yyhlch carried. The annual supper was discussed at length. It was finally decided that it be he.d about the middle’ of November and the programme of a Scotch character. The meeting closed by repeating the Mizpah Bnediction. .

[he Ottawa Spotlight BY WILFRID EGGLESTON

(BY SPECTATOR) OTTAWA, October 5th.—(Election

Uoadcasting) People round parUa- ment Hill are beginning to wonder if there isn't Just a Uttle too much radio, broadcasting Of election speeches for the. peace and comfort of the ordinary citizen The C.B.O. is quite within its rights in giving the time assigned, and no one begrudges the national utility this lucrative , source of revenue. It isn’t either a matter of politics, for both sides have their inn- ing over the sir waves, but even the most ardent political partisan may be surfeited by-an excess of their own party’s excellence and the turpitude and shortcomings of the opposing party; he may wish even on the eve of an election to take his ease before his radio listening to his favorite musical program or comedy skit. It seems probable parliament may regulate broad- casts of elections to key utterances and eve of election roundups by leaders, much as they do in Britain.

SECTIONALISM IN CANADA? Is there a more pronounced spirit of

disunion and friction in Canada just now than there has been for years past? ’This disturbing idea -has been frequently voiced. In a recent speech at Sydney, Mr. Herrldge, whose utterances have the authority of a thoughtful man, whoo has held high office in Canada’s fore.'gn service, said: "we have no unity in Canada: we have an aggression of minorities, each one clamoring for its own rights. . nation is so disunited as we There has been from some quarters a

essential to the smooth working of the federal form of government. But this sectionalism is likely only a passing phase. Anyway it is only a family quarrel which we will patch up. For all the gloomy prophesies we may hear, the heart of Canada is sound. Let othe.’ countries have their “isms”, to which they may raise graven ima- ges, Canadians will still wear the sprig Of liberty in their hats, and will stick to their cradled faith in democràcy. DOMINION DIRECTOBS FOR RE-

EMPLOYMENT? The chairman of the National Em-

ployment Commission, Mr. Arthur B. Purvis, who has made a survey of employment conditions in the Western provinces, is convinced that the Dom- inion should have some control of local employment boards. The employment service of the Dominion must be reorganized. By agreement with Ihe provinces, he says, the Dominion should appoint directors to give steam to the Job finding activities of local volunteer com.mittees of employers and labor. “The problem requires the same vigorous action as the drought question did”, says Mr. Purvis. It is interesting to note that Mr. Purvise thinks the constitutional problem of provincial authority is “more apparent than real”. The foui Western provinces will

I have no objections to placing the Job I finding committees under the direction I of Dominion directors and he is sure the same will be true of the central and eastern provinces. HOME IMPOVEMENT PLAN IN

First Kindergarten Was in Blankenburg, Germany

That idea of schooling as simply the fostering of .the best natural growth was in the mind of Fred- erick Froebel when he opened the first kindergarten in the little town of Blankenburg, Germany, in 1837, and found a name for his educa- tional idea, says a writer in the New York Tim.es. From a hilltop where he could see the village houses,'each with its tiny garden plot, he made his famous declara- tion: “Eureka! I have it! Kinder- garten it shall be!”

Froebel’s first school was at Keil- hau, established in 1816. The w’ork- ing plan of that school and his edu- cational theory he put into print in 1826 in the “Education of Man.” The “Means of Education” used there and printed in “Education of Man” would be an acceptable course of study in a modern country day school.

Froebel’s experience in this school and his observations of mothers with their children in the home life about him led to his conviction that education was a continuous process, and to be effective should begin in early childhood. For twenty years he thought and worked over his plans for obtaining a more abun- dant life for children.

He had made his appeal to parents for a better understanding of child nature in the following terms :

“O men, as you stro’l through garden or meadow or field or copse, why not use your sense to perceive what nature -would teach you? Be- hold the plant! When grown under pressure you scarcely guess its natural life and purpose, but in open ground it becomes a sun of green rays, a star of leaves. Your children, too, O parents, have it in them to become creatures fully developed to beauty.”

.' No are.” the localities to which loans will be

extended. They apply equally every- pretty vigorous assertion of provincial ■rights. The qutstion is whether on vital questions actual friction exists between the governments in Canada and whether if such exists the feeling has permeated the body of the people. The ancient “unity in di- versity” between Ontario and Quebec, deep rooted in history, retaining cultural and racial differences, giving pi- quancy and a special flavor to Cana- dian life, and preventing stagnation in public life for the good of Canada, is not the issue involved. In Alberta as everybody is well aware there is friction, plenty of it, between the provincial aiid the Dominion Govern- ment. 'We will all have to wait to see how this thing will work itself out. The challenge by the provincial government of the Dominion’s right to dis- allow provincial statutes is direct and vigorous. Despite this abrupt and dis- conceming challenge which has as Its ■vitalizing force an almost fanatical zeal for a new economic policy, there seems to be little cause to fear that the people of Alberta have any wish to ’secede’ from confederatbon. The provincial goversment repudiates any such idea. In the meantime we must wait and see what solution of the friction is found. It would have been strange if Canada had been spared the unrest which with economic suffering was the aftermath of the war and the de- pression, and which in other countries found exprfôsion in new political ahd economic theories and in some cases in new forms of government, Canada has its crop of economists with their panaceas and has imfprtunately had sectionalism. This sectionalism, it must be admitted, has been aided rather than hindered by too strict an

’ àdherenc“ to “provincial rights” ou the part of some provincial governments. There has on occasions been

where in the Dominion. In towns and citiese of 5000 inhabitants upward, loans aniier the plan amounted on August 31 to ever 614 million dollars, and this amount was advanced to 16.- 269 nouseholders. It is interesting to note that among the towns and cities of a population of 10,000 to 20,600 the centres making most extensive use of the plan were Timmins (229 houses, $167,883) and Sudbury (79 houses $107,292). In towns of 5000 to 10,000 population the leaders were Kirkland Lake (215 houses, $161,964), Flin Flon (123 houses, $60,634) and Trail (158 houses, $54,763). Is it that mining towns were built rapidly and require more repairs to their houses, or are mining towns more progressive?

Shawls Were Once Worn by Both Men and Women

The shawl had its beginning early in our civilization. It was worn by both men and women among bar- barous and semi-civilized peoples. It is thought to be referred to in the Bible—the twenty-seventh chapter of Ezfikial,. to be exact, notes a writer in the Rural New-Yorker.

The silk shawl is originally Chi- nese. The lace shawl made its first appearance in Spain and the Cash- mere shawl started its career in India. The Paisley shawl, which was a high-grade copy of the Cash- mere shawl, was made in Scotland.

But the young lady of fashion first discovered the possibilities of the shawl early in the Eighteenth century when British officers stationed in India began sending them home to England.

The style was greatly admired in fachionable London and soon fem- inine hearts on both sides of the water began to ache for possession of a Cashmere shawl—and mascu- line minds began to understand that if life was to pursue its even tenor they, had to take out their ponderous wrought iron keys and dig down in- to the family exchequers. A fine Cashmere shawl of first-class color- ing and pattern cost $1,200 to $1,- 500. Such a shawl would weigh about seven pounds. Later they were produced to sell as low as $70 or $80. Even so, this was quite a sizable sum in the era when the whole of Manhattan island sold for $24.

Smoke is nothing more than myr- iads of small solid particles suspended in the air, writes Dr. Thom- as M. Beck in the Chicago Tribune. These particles are denser than air, yet they settle only with extreme slowness because of two facts. A falling body soon reaches a speed at .which its weight is balanced by the air resistance opposing its motion. This resistance is roughly propor- tional to the amount of surface ex- posed, and the smaller the body, the greater the ratio of surface to weight and the slower its rate of fall through air. Smoke particles usually are so small that their rates of fall hardly are perceptible. In addition, the particles’ motion through the air causes them to pick up electrical charges, and the mu- tual repulsion of these charges pre- vents. the particles from coalescing into larger particles which woüld fall more quickly.

It is a surprising fact that these smoke particles are much harder to remove from air than, are the far smaller molecules of a gaseous impurity. Air can be freed from foreign gases by bubbling it through the right kind of absorbing liquid or by passing it through a loosely packed'mass of a porous solid absorbent. These methods frequently fail with smokes.

The reason for this difference lies in the fact that the small, light gas molecules are in a state of con- stant motion, and travel at incred- ible speeds which quickly bring them into contact with.the absorbing material. On the other hand the far heavier smoke particles drift very slowly through the rest of the gas, and only a few of them have time to reach the absorbent.

Invented the Lifeboat The first lifeboat of which any

complete account exists was invented by a Frenchman in 1765; but there are no records that it was ever used, says London Answers Magazine. So the honor of, design- ing the lifeboat as we know it may be divided between three English- men. Wouldhave invented the self- righting boat; Lukin designed the non-self-righting sailing lifeboat; and Greathead actually built the first lifeboat. This noteworthy ves- sel was launched at Newcastle-on- Tyne in 1789; it did good service for thirty years, saving hundreds of lives.

Karakul Fur Bearer Old Member of Sheep Family

The karakul fur bearer is an ancient member of the sheep family, dates back thousands' of years. History recounts that conquering tribes came into the independent kingdom of Bokhara, bordering on old Russia, thousands of years ago, bringing their sheep with them. Ar- cheologists have dug up mummies buried for 3,000 years that were found to be wearing this lamb’s fur — in perfect condition, writes a cor- respondent of the New York Her- ald-Tribune.

The breed takes its name from the little town of Karakul, not far from the Aral sea, in Turkestan, Asia. For. centuries the fur of the sheep grown in the little primitive community was known to traders and furriers the world over as the finest to be obtained. The pure karakuls were found only on the ranches of the Bokharan noblemen. Mixed breeds are found throughout that part of Asia, the Afghans, the Astrachans and the Krimmers. The Mahomatan tribes of Bokhara have a sacred regard for these full-blood- ed karakuls. They guard them zeal- ously.

Crest of the Medici Family Carvings of shields which bore

six balls, are said to be the crest of the Medici family. These balls represented pills, we were told, because the Medici family were physicians, says London Answers Mag- azine. They were also moneylend- ers, and Edward IV of England, wishing to borrow from them, offered them a street in London where they could transact business. They called the street Lombard street, after Lombardy, their native town, and altered the six balls in their crest to three. So when one visits one’s “uncle,” one knows the origin of the sign of the three balls over his shop. The Medici began as traders and bankers, not physicians, and became rulers of Florence and Tuscany. The Methodic! were physicians of ancient times w{jo relied on general principles rather than experiment.

The Monroe Doctrine The Monroe Doctrine, named for

President Monroe and enunciated by him in his presidential message of December 2, 1823, was originated by his Secretary of State, John Quincy Adams. The formation of new republics in South and Central America had led to the belief that European powers were contemplat- ing interference there to restore the old form of government. The fundamental principle of the original Monroe Doctrine is that there are two natural spheres of world influence, separated by the Atlantic ocean, and that European powers should keep out of American affairs. At a later time the doctrine was extended to imply a United States police power or intervention power in this hemisphere.

Birth Circumvents Law When the great Napoleon was fi-

nally exiled to St. Helena the Brit- ish secretary of war issued strict orders no Frejnch visitors were to be allowed on the island. But des- tiny was not reckoned with and when Mme. Bertrand, wife of the French general and companion of Napoleon, gave birth to a child on the island she presented the baby to the Emperor as the first French

. visitor that hàd entered the island without permission of the British.

Leaving Glen Garry we travelled north through Glen Clunie and Glen Shiel. Winding up over the mountains at Loch Duich was the road to Glen- elg, the home of Angus MacLeod, father of Olgair, from whom so many of us claim descent.

V The mainland Journey was com-

pleted at the Kyle of Lochlash, where, but a short di.'tance off I got my first glimpse of the Cuillins, a marvellous group of rugged mountains on the Isle of Skye.

We ferried across Loch Alsh to Ky- leakin. Overlooking the Kyle are the ruins of the Castle of Maoll, said to have been occupied by a Norse King’s daughter, “Saucy Mary,” who imposed a toll om all boats that passed through. We haiT lunch in the old inn at Portree where. Bonnie Prince Charlie, on the eve of his departure, presented Ho/a MacDonald -with a gold locket containing his miniature.

Although the isle is approximately 600 miles long no place is more than four miles from the sea. The lochs cut deep into the isle, and all these lochs are tidal. The farms are small and neat, most ■'>i the houses being built of stones, (no mortar between) with thatched roofs. Wiith the aid of the government, a few modem homes have been built of plaster cast. No trees gro on the isle on account of the winds, but instead the mountains

are entirely carpeted with green grass and purple heather. 'The heather is not cultivated anywhere in Scot- land, it simply grows all over the country.

Sheep-raising is the chief industry, and sheep are found everywhere—even on the roads. The driver of the oar had to stop more'than once for sheep to walk placidly off. I was told that it has never been known for any of the sheep to be killed on the road, and Judging by the extreme care and cour- tesy shown by the driver I sincerely

believe it. At the time of shearing all the wool is pooled and the money divided among the owners.

My first night on the isle was spent at the Flodigarry House, the home of Flora MacDonald after her marriage. Flora is consi-lered the preserver of Bonnie Prince Charlie for it was she who hid him in her home before his escape to the Island of Ramsay and France. A ransom of thirty thousand pounds was placed on his head by the English but not one of those poor Highlanders would betray him.

Synopsis of Preceding Instalments: Jeanne MacDonald, secretary to

Carleton Conway, who has been de- laying her wedding because she supports her widowed mother on their Hilton farm, agrees to marry Bryan Patterson, young New York engineer, on Christmas Eve and accompany him to South America. Suddenly he quits seeing her. She loses her job as Conway is retrench- ing. Sandra Sumner, with whom she shares an apartment, intimates she is seeing Bryan. Heartbroken, Jeanne goes to Hilton and is amazed to learn Martin Downes, a Hilton boy she saw at times in New York, has announced their engagement. She becomes secretary to Gordon Bartlett, a writer. His sister Cihy persuades Jeanne to pose as her and welcome Aunt Cecile who has been abroad for years so Cilly can go to a house party. Jeanne sees Bryan unexpectedly and Aunt Cecile Insists she invite him to dinner. Wealthy Lance Larkin, whom Jeanns knew as Conway’s client, is upset when he hears of the house party. At dinner Bryan is cool to Jeanne. Mart makes a scene on seeing Jeanne with Lance. She overhears Lance telling Cilly she has killed his love. See- ing Jeanne and Lance together, Cilly is telling Jeanne she is “fired” just as Aunt Cecile, supposedly in the West, appears. Later the old lady urges Jeanne to Marry Lance. Sandra gives Jeanne to understand she’s going to sail with Bryan. Lance proposes and Jeanne accepts him. Mart, then San- dra, confess to Jeanne they kept Bryan away from her by leading him to think Jeanne loved Lance. Two days before Christmas, her wedding day, she tries to phone Biyan but he has given up his apartment.

INSTALMENT “You look very heautiful, Jeanne,’

said Lance, as he escorted her proudly into the hotel where they were having tea.

“Thank you, Lance.” Jeanne smiled *t him mechanically.

She was wearing the green winter suit she had bought for her honeymoon and the eyes of the people following her in the hotel assured her of the success of her purchase. The deep fox collar framed her face, and with the biege hat at a fashionable angle over her blonde braids, Jeanne knew that now she looked like one of Cilly's friends. And yet the knowledge that she was well dressed and that Lance’s eyes approved gave her no thrill.

“I’m tired,” she thought. “Tomor- row I’ll feel better.”

If Lance had looked closely he would have seen that undner the perfect make-up Jeanne was imusually pal; and under her eyes were faint violet shadows. There had been little sleep for Jeanne after Sandra left the night before. Tired out, yet she lay in bed tensely wide awake, her mind going over and over the startling fact that Bryan was free, that he had never loved Sandra. It was dawn before sh. fell into an uneasy sleep.

“I’m very proud of you,” Lance whispered as they took chairs on the mezzanyie. “’Every one is looking at you.”

“Is that what he wants,” Jeanne wondered dully. I’m more like a new toy than a person to him. It isn’t that he wants really. I know that now and it’s too late,”

Instead of tea Lance ordered cock- tails. Jeanne sipped hers and nibbled on the small delicate canapes so that he would not notice her silence. She found it almost impossible to speak. Lance, the beautiful loimge in the hotel, herself in fashionable clothes, seemed like a dream. Any moment she expected to w.aken.

“I’ve changed our plans,” Lance said seeming not to notice that she was quiet. “Do you mind if we go to Plori da instead of Bermuda? There will be

a whole crowd down there that 1 know so it’s silly of us to stay alone in Bermuda. No fun at all. And I want you to meet every one. It will be a better start for you than if we stayed off by ourselves.”

“I see,” Jeanne said. So even on their wedding trip she

would be exhibited. And she would be accepted not because she was Jeanne MacDonald but because she was Mrs. Lance Larkin. Cilly was the girl he should 'be marrying. She was the type he wanted. The only reason he had disagreed with her was that she stuck to her own crowd instead of playing around with his friends. Deke Lord’s I'.Oi’.se party still rankled.

“We can be married tomorrow as we planned,” Lance went on, “and take the plane to Florida, The holidays whl be a lot Of fun ”

Jeeime bent forward, the palms of her hands flat against the top of the low table between them.

‘ I can’t marry you, Lance,” she found herself saying.

“You what?” He almost shouted. She looked at him.-He was no more

surprised than she was at her sudden decision.

“I know it’s not fair of me to have v/aited until now to tell you,” she said steadily, “but now I’m certain that 1 can never make you happy. Your life isn’t mine, Lance. I can never be a social success”

He frowned. “You frightened me for a moment. Is that all you are afraid of? Of course you can be a success. My Money ”

“Your money will do it for me,” she interrupted swiftly.” I know that, Lance, but it will never make people like me, and don’t want them to accept me just because I am your wife. Oh, I’m positive it’s a mistake, Lance. I told you before that we are from different worlds, end we are. It would never do for us to marry.”

He was regai'ding her with angry eyes. “Isn’t it a little late to change

and now Christmas Day she would be alone. Mart wes in Hilton; she dld- nt want to go there; her mother was not expecting her. Jeanne had not told her of her engagement to Lance. She had planned to call her from New York before she sailed. That would have saved explanations. And now she was glad she had not written to her mother.

“What are you going to do if you won’t marry me?” Lance asked her as he helped her out of the taxi in front of the house.

‘I don’t know yet.” Jeanne’s voice was tired. “I haven’t made any plans."

“Don’t go in yet,” he pleaded. They walked up the front steps to-

gether.

“Come in it you want to, Jeanne said “It’s too cold to stand outside.

In the dark hall they faced each other.

“I can’t let you go, Jeanne,” he said, throwing an arm around her shoulders. “Please don’t decide now. Let me know how you feel tomorrow.”

Jeanne promised to think it over but now she knew that she would never marry Lance. And he seemed to sense it because he turned on her an- grily.

“I don’t see how you can better yourself. There isn’t a thing I won't do for you—all the clothes yon want, money to spend, anything you ask tor you may have.”

“It isn’t that,’- she protested. “I can’t explain it, Lance. You’ll find some one else who will give you the love you deserve.”

He eyed Jeanne helplessly. “I wonder why she wants me. I havn’t seen her for days.”

Jeanne bent forward and placed her hand on his shoulder. “You must know why. She loves you, Lance. She always has.”

Cilly. An accident,” Lance seemed dazed. “But what about you?” He turned to Jeanne suddenly.

“I told you we would never be happy,” Jeanne said gently. “You must go to her, Lance.”

INSTALMENT 29. ■When Lance left hurriedly to go

to Cilly, Jeanne walked upstairs feeling an intense loneliness. With a sigh she slipped out of the new green coat and hung it carefully in the closet. TTie soft beige hat was wrapped carefully in tissue paper and tucked in its box.

“My honeymoon clothes,” she said half aloud, stroking the rich fur collar of the coat, “.and now there will be no honeymoon.”

With a sob she threw herself on the bed and for a few minutes she lay there, her .shoulders shaking. ’Then she sat up and there was a brilliance in her blue-eyes

“I’m free new. I could never have been a rich m.an's wife. My life is my own. I’ll, have to find work now and take care of Mother.”

Christmas- would be a lonely day, Jeanne knew, filled with memories of what might have been. And tomorrow was the day before Christmas, the day she and Bryan l ad planned to marry, and later she and Lance.

Going out to a lonely dinner, Jeanne thought with astonishment at the

“I know.” he cried. “It’s that other i chapges that had taken place in the man. You’ve never gotten over him.'

She looked up at him, her blue eyes on his angry brown eyes.

“Perhaps that is it,” she said slowly.” J fell in love once and I guess I’ll never get over It.”

“That’s childish”, he stormed. “Every one has a first love but it doesn’t mean you can never love any

'What is it? Is something the matter?”

The old lady’s voice sounded trou- bled when sire said, “Jeanne, what

of I have you decided to do about Lance*^ Did you follow my advice?” ,

You changed your mind very suddenly,” he said with a cruel twist to his mouth. “Has that man you were in love with shown up again”

'I don’t even know where he is,” Jeanne said. “Its not that, Lance It’s îu.si that you deserve to be happy and I’m not the right girl.”

Ï don’t care whether, you are the right girl or not,” he said savagely. ‘I’m not going to have people say Gfar- don Bartlett’s secretary threw me over the day before the wedding.”

Jeanne went pale under his thrust. Quick tears stung her blue eyes; she turred blindly away from Lance.

Tm sorry, Jeanne. I didn’t mean it.’ Lance reached to take her hand.

‘But you did mean it,” Jeanne said steadily. “It’s only your pride that is hurt. After all, I am only a secretary a working girl you took pity on.”

No .... no Jeanne. I’ve o.iways been fond’of you. It ndver made any difference to me that you worked except that I thought you were finer than the girls who had nothing to do but spend money to amuse them lelves.’

But you would be happier with one of those girls,’' Jeanne insisted.

He shook his head. “Let’s not decide now,” he begged, “I’ll take you home and you can call me tomorrow. Sleep on it. Perhap.s you’ll change your mind.”

In the taxi they were silent. Lance smoked one cigarette after another and Jeanne sat quietly in the comer, her eyes on the snowy street.

“I’ll never change my mind,” she thought dully.

■What lay ahead of her she didn’t

“Yes, I followed it, but. . . ” “But what?” “I can’t go through with it. Aunt

Cecile,” Jeanne murmured, glancing hastily at Lance, who was staring at her curiously.

“Do you know where he is?” Lance? 'Why, he’s here!” You are positive, Jeanne, that you

don’t want to marry him?” “Yes.” For a moment CUly’s aunt was silent

and then she said, “I have something to tell you and I want you to let him know about it. Cilly was hurt this afternoon in an automobile accident.”

“Badly?” “Yea, but she will hve. She has been

calling for Lance. But before you teil him I must be sure that it isn’t Lance you want.”

“I’m positive,” Jeanne said steadily. “Then yon won’t mind telling him

about Cilly?” “I’ll teil him right away.” “You’re a good girl, Jeanne. I’ll call

you again tomorrow. I must go now to be with Cihy.” I

“■Where is she , Aunt Cecile?” 1 “At home. Her car skidded right in

front of the apartment house. Good- bye, Jeanne.”

“■What is it Jeanne?” Lance asked hastily as, she replaced the receiver. “■What did the old lady want?”

Jeanne drew in a deep breath. “Lance, Cilly has been hurt—an au-

tomobile accident.” Jeanne could see his face pale.* He

opened his mouth to speak but no words came.

“She is going to get well, Lance, but I guess it was a bad accident.. She is

past six weeksl. As she ordered her simple meal and ate it slowly, she was thinking of Sandra, miserable and heart broken; of Cilly who had been hurt badly; of Lance seeking for a love that would satisfy him. No one’s life ran smoothly, she decided. There seemed to be a certain amount of trouble that every one had to go through.

When she got back to the house three was a telephone message from Lance, asking her to call the Bartletts’ apartment. Reluctantly she dialed the number. Perhaps something had hap- pened to Cilly and she was not going to get well.

It seemed strange to hear Park’s familiar voice answer.

“Miss MacDonald?” the buttler said. “Oh yes, Mr. I,arkln wishes to speak

with you.” And then Lance came to the tele-

phone with his strange request. “It’s a lot to ask of you, Jeanne, af-

ter all Cilly has done to you, but won't you please do it as a favor to us both. She wants to .see you, tonight, as soon as you can posslblly get here.”

“Why, Lance?” Jeanne asked, start- led. “She is going to get 'well, isn’t she?”

“Yes, she’s much better. The doc- tor says it is all right for her to see you. Please take a taxi and come -up here,” he pleaded.” Aunt Cecile is here, too, and wants to see you.”

Jeanne agreed to come. There was nothing else she could do. Within fif- teen minutes Parks opened the door of the strangely hushed apartment to her.

“Come into the library, Miss Mac- Donald, ” he said quietly. “Mr. Larkin wants to see you there first.”

It seemed odd to be going down the long hall, past the living room and rally’s room, to the library where she had worked so many hours with Gor- don Bartlett. Aunt Cecile met her in the doorway.

“I’m glad to see you, my desir.” She

COULDN’T EAT COULDN’T SLEEP Now Free of Bad Liver and Kidney

Trouble and Feeling Fine

Here’s another woman who felt terrible until she found how to get back appetite, sleep soundly, and secure new health. Mrs. A. H.,

Montreal, writes, “lhad years of lirer complaint and dizzy headaches ~ bowels irre^ar, crippled with kidney trouble too u-oo appetite—no sleep.

kissed Jeanne -warmly. “How is Cilly?” The old lady shook her head. “She

is improving but it was a bad accident, I’m afraid one side of her face ■will always be scarred.”

Jeanne felt a quick -wave of sympathy for the girl. Cilly, -with her beauty married! It was dreadful to think of

I’m sorry,” Jeanne said quickly. “You were good to come here to-

night. I would have blamed you for refusing. In fact, I was reluctant to let Lance call you, but Cilly pleaded with him to get in touch with you.”

“But why should she wish to see me? Jeanne asked in amazement.

’The old lady shook her head. ‘ I

don’t know. She wouldn’t tell me. Here, child, take off your hat and coat. I’ll call Lance.”

■While Aunt Cecile was out of the room, Jeanne glanced around. It gave her an ache tc see her desk, close to Gordon Bartlett’s, that a new secretary was occupying now every day. And Mr. Bartlett’s books were as usual in an orderly pile on his desk with his papers spread out neatly as he always left them. .

And then Cilly's brother came into the library.

“It is pleasant to see you again, Miss MacDonald,” he said with genuine feeling in his voice.

“And I’m glad to see you, Mr. Bart- lett. How is your work going—your book?”

He shook his head. “I can’t find any one to take your place.” he said. “Per- haps I can persuade you to come back. But I mustn’t keep you now. Lance and Ciily are waiting to see you. You know‘ her room?”

Jeanne nodded and left the library. Outside of rally’s room she hesitated. Sorry as she was for the girl, she had little desire to see her and talk with her.

“Here she is, Cilly,” Lance said', taking Jeanne by the arm and drawing her over to the bedside.

And there Cilly lay, pathetically mo- tionless, her head bound in thick bandages, wish only her eyes and her small pert nose showing.

Jeanne bent over her. “I'm awfully sorry. ...”

“I’m glad you came,” CUly interrupted her in a muffled, weak voice. “You were good to do it.”' Jeanne shook her head gently. Cilly's

eyes were seeking Nance. “Tell her for me,” she gasped. Without looking away from Cilly,

Lance said in a low voice, “Cilly feels pretty badly about the way she treat- ed you, Jeanne. She wants to apolo- gize.”

Tears filled Cilly’s brown eyes. “Yes,” she said breathlessly. “I am so sorry. It was inexcusable.”

“It’s all right, Miss Bartlett,” Jeanne told her. “Well both forget it.”

And she would forget all the un- pleasantness, Jeanne told herself. It was impossible to hold any hard feel- ings after seeing Cilly lying there so defenseless, so p(athetlcally broken.

Lance smiled at Jeanne gratefully and when the nurse came into the room and said Cilly had better be left alone he followed her into the hall.

“Thank you, Jeanne, for all you have done for me—for us both. It’s all right now. Cilly needs me, and as soon as she gets well, we will be mar ried and go away together.”

She had' been right. Lance had always wanted some one who needed him. That was why he had been at- tracted to her—and now Ciilly needed him.

“I’m glad.” She pressed his hand “You deserve a lot, Lance. I’m happy that you’ve found the right girl.”

He tilted her chin up so that her blue eyes met his smiling gaze .

You’re a brave girl, Jeanne,” he said and there was a catch in his husky voice. “I hope you will be happy.”

He walked with her to the door but before Jeanne could leave Aunt Cecile hurried down the hall after them.

Thank you, Jeanne. You’ve been sweet. I -will call you tomorrow.”

Lance glanced at his watch. “It’s iate,” he said quickly. ‘I’ll drive you home.”

Jeanne shook her head. “No. Stay here in case Cilly wants you. I can take a taxi. Good night.”

As the cab carried her to her house Jeanne thought of Lance and Cilly. They would never have been brought together if it hadn’t been for the accident. It took trouble to make them realize their love. She was glad that in the end they had found it. Of her own future she thought little. There would be hard days ahead, she knew, but tonight she was tired and she did not look beyond. She would have to seek courage—courage to go on without love.

In the morning Jeanne wakened to find the landlady knocking on her door.

“A special delivery letter for you Miss MacDonald, ” she called.

Jeanne jumped out of bed and hurried across the cold room to open the door.

“You will be leaving today, won'! you?” the woman asked as she hand- ed her the lettei.

Jeanne started. “No ... no, .. .1 don’t know for sure yet. Perhaps 1 won’t be leaving right away.”

The woman eyed her curiously. “Then you aren’t going to be married?”

“I have "changed my plans. I’U let you know this afternoon if I want the room any lonnger.” ’

The woman turned away -without saying anything more and Jeanne went back to bed to read the letter. It was from ner mother. Jeanne thought it was strange that she sent it special delivery. And with a sinking heart he opened 'd. Perhaps she was ill and needed more money. But the letter contained so much bad news. Her mother wrote:

“Mart Downes came home from New York and elopeo the same evening with Marilyn Freeman. -What has hap- pened, Jeanne? I thought you and Mart were going to me married?”

Sa Mart, the boy who despised wealth, had'married it. Jeanne smiled! bitterly. He must have known he was going to marry- Marilyn, but he hadn’t j the courage to tell Jeanne. She realized now that he had been j evasive with her, not on account of Bryan, but because he was planning. this marriage. And before he had to deny his engagement to Jeanne in Hil-' ton he ran away with another girls so* that the gossip,s in the little townj would think that Jeanne had been jilted. But wh?,t people thought mat- tered little to Jeanne. It was only for her mother .she minded.

■When she finished reading te letter she curled up under the blankets and tried to go back to sleep again, but it, was impossible. It was the day before Christmas and only six weeks ago this day had meant more to her than anything ever planned before in her life. And in six short weeks everything had changed.

rally and Lance were together now and they would be happy. All during the time that it would take '.for CUly to get well Lance would be with her, loving her, looking forward to the day when they could ' go away together.

And Mart and Marilyn. Even though Mart had scoffed at the rich, he had married the 'wealthiest girl in Hil- ton. Marylyn had always loved him, and Jeanne did not doubt now that Mart loved her in return. His mother would be very happy at the way things turned out.

And somewhere Bryan was packing today to leave for South America. His dream had come true. It meant a pro- motion for him to be sent out of the country. And he was going away alone, leaving behind two girls who loved him. (

“ like to say good-bye to you, Bryan,” Jeanne said to herself wist- fully. -wlhy, why didn’t you eyer giye me a chance to explain? you are .so proud—and it is your pride and my own that sep,arated us.”

Then suddenly she sat upright. Bryan was sailing on the Pioneer some time in the afternoon. She could find out in the morning paper the ex' act time the .ship would leave. And at least she could see. him—even If they couldn’t talk, even if he wouldn’t speak to her, she coulld see him as he left. Just the sight of him would bring a small grain of comfort.

“I will watch you as you go out of my life, Br.van,” she whispered.

occurs when food is held in a decaying tooth cavity. Proper care of the teeth, by brushing them regularly after meals and—most important time of all—at bedtime, in order to get rid of food particles, and by the securing of regular dental care -will prevent bad breath from a source that is now common.

■When there is actual disease of the mouth, such as pyorrhoea, or of the adjoining parts, bad breath may result either fyom the condition Itself or from the fermentation of food particles which the condition favours. A healthy throat and a mouth kept clean by regular use of the tooth-brush are the first considerations in preserving an inoffenisve breath.

In addition to the local conditions, which act .as a cause of bad breath, there are .general conditions which bring it about. We think, first, of the digestive tract because in our minds a bad taste in the mouth is frequently associated with digestive upsets. Bad breath does occur quite often among those who overeat, or whose elimination is faulty. The bad breath, in such cases, is really a symptom of an abnormal condition of the digestive tract and regarded aa such by the in- dividual’s physician.

Under such conditions, the remedy lies in altering the mode of living. A proper diet, avoidance of over-eating or ef over-indulgence In one or more articles of diet, regular elimination, increased intake of water, and exer- cise are the points which should first be dealt with.

The correction of any unpleasant odour should always be thought of along the lines of the removal of the cause. It is much preferable to over- come body odours by regular bath- ing than by attempting to overpower them by using perfumes. In the same way, the logical manner of dealing with bad breath is to remove its causes.

A treatment of symptoms is necessary, but their cure and the prevention of their recurrence depend upon the treatment of the cause, the root of the condition. It never pays to tem- porize; it is always satisfactory to get to grips with the cause.

for the past twelve years a partner of Mr. Wm. Hill in the Glengarry Marble Wjrks. Mr. Edmund MacGillivray left on Tuesday, for Montreal, having accepted a position in the office of the Ogdehsburg Coal Co. The Govern- ment has taken over the operation of the grain elevators at Fort * William as a war measure, and the strikers who were trying to tie up the grain trade of Canada, have gone to work. The G.T.R. bridge and building department is constructing a number of wooden buildings to serve as shelters at various bridges on the railway system for guards placed at the same during the winter months as a precaution against possible destruction. Honorably discharged after a year’s absence overseas, Pte. Clarence Ostrom, late lo4th Battalion, arriyed home the early part of the week and was very warmly welcomed. Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Morris have taken possession ot the residence recently vacated by Mrs. J. R. Proctor.

It may be necessary to secure a fourth teacher before the year is out.—It is said that an independent telephone company purposes to operate in Ontario. Several important cases are to be heard by the Board ot Railway Com- missioners at the sittings which are to commence in Montreal on the 18th. Among them is that of Angus McDonald & Son, coal mer- chants, who make complaint that the Grand Trunk Railway dis- criminates in its rate on coal in favor of the Prescott route and against the Massina and Prescott route.

Hundreds are homeless, property to the value of many thousands of dollars has been destroyed, and traffic on the C.A.R.

seriously impeded, as the result of bush FORTY YEARS AGO fires which early this week completely Friday, Oct. $, 1897 wiped out the villages of Casselman and

South Indian. In the short space of 24 hours Tuesday’s strong winds fanned the prevailing bush fires to a point where they could not be controlled and they swept everything in their path, not only leaving the victims homeless but many in actual want. For miles the track bed of the C.A.R. has been destroyed, while the woodwork of the railway bridge over the Nation River has been reduced to ashes. Passengers and baggage have to be transferred across the river on hand cars. We learn that Rev.

A long felt want in Alexandria has been the presence of a first class dentist. It is now supplied. Dr. V. H. Lyon of Ottawa, open'ng a dental office this week in the News block. The new Dominion one dollar bills are out and they show Lord and Lady Aberdeen on one side and a logging scene on the other. The inhabitants below Quebec have rejected the new issue. The old bills they understand, but the new figures and the logging scene savour too much of counterfeit to them.

During the two days the Casselman fire was raging, the Alexandria station was despatching office for the C.A.R, on this side of the fire and was in charge of Mr. Jos.
