THE GLENGARRY NEWS VOL. XLV.—No. 34. The Glengarry News, Alexandria, Ont., August 20, 1937. $2.00 A TEAM Premier Hepburn Proud of His Record in Campaign Speech at Oakviiie Collection of $50,000,000 Succession Duties Promised With ^ law And Order Maintained Against C. I. D. (By HAROLD DINGMAN) (Staff Writer, The Globe and Mail) OAKVILLE, Aug. 15. Assurance that he would again present a balan- ced budget and give the Province good financial administration if returned to office in the forthcoming general Provincial election, was given here Saturday night by Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn before a crowd estimated at 4,000 people. Delivering his third election cam- paign speech in as many days the Premier lashed out at Conservative critics, “who, lacking something con- structive, carped about millionaire domination” of the Hepburn Govern- ment and he anOTered Mr. Rowe’s charges that he sought an early elec- tion to cover up a Hydro shortage. "Same Old Gang.” The Premier issued a sharp warn- ing to the electors of Ontario to “con- sider well” the outcome of a vote which wouldi place the Conserva- tive Party in power. “The “same old gong” of Tories were seeking re-election die said, and their suecesss would mean: 1. Lawless agitators of the C.I.O. would b^ given free entry to Ontario to cause labor disputes, riots and pos- sible sabotage in Ontario Industry, now well on the road to recovery in a prosperity that was fundamentally sound. 2. Hydro rates would be increased beyond the high rates lii existence be- fore the Hepburn Government took office, andi the great public system would be again under the domination of Montreal money barons. 3. Wealthy men would be again free to defraud the public treasury of just taxation. To Mr. Rowe's charge that he was trj'ing to cover up a power shortage, the Premier declared that, there were thousands of horsepower held in re- serve in contracts., sufficient to over- come any power shortage. Millionaire Friends. Mr. Rowe, he declared, would soon “have to trim his sails” in his barrage of criticism of the Government and in his open support of the lawlessness sponsored by the C.I.O. The Conser- vative Leader was himself surround- by millionaire friends, such as Gen- eral Hogarth, George S. Henry and R. B. Bennett, said Mr. Hepburn, but if he needed another millionaire to help him it would likely be that he could get help from John L; Lewi», whose revenue from the pay envelopes of workers was $36,000,000 per year. Mr. Lewis would like to see his Gov- ernment defeated, Mr. Hepburn said, for it would mean free invasion of Ontario and he could extend his am bitions as labor dictator to Ontario as well. ^ The Prime Minister spoke at the sixth annual picnic sponsored by T. A, Blakelock, M.L.A. for Halton. Growing Debt. “On the eve of voting in a general Provincial election, I want to discuss fully and fairly some of the issues confronting this Province,” said the Premier. “In 1934, when I took office, the Province was running into debt at the rate of $6,000,000 per month. Real estate owners and farmers were seek- ing relief from taxation and the peo- ple of the Province were wondering when Onttario would be bankrupt. That was one situation we found. “Then there were the nefarious Hy- dro contracts. This great system, of which We are so proud, was on its” way to bankruptcy. “The Provincial Treasury was for- ced to pay out In interest chargea 42 cents on every dollar of revenue. “Now Mr. Rowe comes along and says we are seeking an election to cover up our administration of Hydro. He says we have renewed the power contracts which we cancelled. I won- der if Mr. Rpwe realizes that when we renewed the Ga,tlneau contract we only purchased half of the power ori- ginally contracted for. The other 120,- 000 horsepower can be tâken àt ojitioh in case 'of'need. Then there Is the Alexandria High Schoo Middle School Results E. Lit.—EngHsh Literature; E. Comp.

Xifk Hill Voulh Killed Highway Accident DONALD ARNOLD, 12 CRUSHED UNDER WHEELS OF TRUCK MONDAY Falling beneath the wheels of a heavily laden gravel truck while try- ing to jump on its running board, Donald Arnold, 12-year-old adopted sen of Mr. Allan OWeman, Kirk Hill, was instantly killed, Monday morning, a short distance south of Kirk Hill corner. The driver of the truck was Wilfred Roy, Summerstown, and he was engaged in hauling gravel for road repairs in the vicinity of Kirk Hill. Young Arnold and a companion Alastair MacGillivraj' had been given a ride by Roy when on their way to pick apples. They were on their wav home when the truck returned from the pit laden with three yards of gravel and the accident occurred when they apparently tried to jump on the running board, young Arnold falling beneath the rear wheels. The young lad was terribly injured, the righl rear tire passing over almost the en- tire length of his body. In addition to internal injuries he suffered a frac- j tured skull, death being instantaneous, Roy told police that he was travel- ling about six to eight miles an hour at the time of the accident and his: first intimation that something was ! wrong was a slight jar as he saw the | MacGiUivray boy jump on his running I board.

Hold Men in l’Orignal For Theft of Cheese HAWKESBURY, Ont., Aug. 18, Paul Herroux, 22, and Arthur La- verdure, 27, both of Montreal, were ! arrested Inthat city this morning by ! Detective-Sergeant Gale and Consta- ble Lussier, charged with the stealing of some $250 worth of cheese from the Aberdeen cheese factory, about a mile south of Vankleek Hill. The cheese was all recovered and it was found to have been taken to Montreal by car. The two men were returned to L’Orignal jail today by Provincial Constables R. H. Wannell, of Haw- kesbury, and A.

The factory was broken into Mon- day night and the cheese stolen Monckland Social The parishioners of St. Anthony’s, Apple Hill and St Michaels, Monckland are staging a big Social in Monkland, Wednesday, Aug. 25th. This event commemorates the fiftieth year of the existence of this beautiful little Hamlet and splendid progirOmme is being prepared for the occasion. All the friends are invited to help make this day a memorable one. G. Calwill, a clerk in the St. Eu- gene brank of the Bank of Mont- real, was the lucky winner of the Ply- mouth car which was the door prize at the big afternoon and evening en- tertainment staged in the Armouries, here, on Wednesday, under auspices of the Social Service Club of Sacred Heart Parish. The drawing for the car had attracted a crowd estimated a,i close to 3,000 and though chief in- terest^ centred around the car draw- ing, there were many other attrac- tions including a concert, speeches, a bean supper, booths and dancing. The entertainment got under way at 2 p.m. and lasted for 12 hours, Lar- O’Dair’s orchestra being stUl en- gaged in supplying music for the dan- cing at 2 a.m.. A civic holiday had been declared by Town Council from 2 to 5 p.m. and this gave many. an opportunity of attending the after- noon show. Bingo and wheel-of-for- tiine booths were in operation, while sixteen young and talented acrobats from St. Joseph’s Industrial School, Al- fred, supplied interesting exhibitiems of jumping and other gymnastics. Mr. Rene Legault was chairman and he introduced the speakers, Mr. John D. MacRae MP. and Mr. Eli© Ber- trand, MP. Prescott. The ladles of the Parish served a delicious bean supper from 5 to 7 p.m. which was patronized by a respectable number considering. the humid wea- ther. All roads seemed to be leading to Alexandria at an early hour Wednes- day evening and the Immediate en- virons of the Armouries were weH crowded by 8.30. Well stocked booths were patronized freely along the South wall of the Armouries where lights had been strung for the occa- sion. The boys from St. Joseph’s School staged a series of exhibitions of acro- batic stunts on the armouries floor which thrilled an admiring crowd. High jumping, hurdling, pyramiding and other difficult stunts were dona with the precision which comes only with long training and Brother Eu- sebe and his boys are to be congratu- lated on the show they staged. Mayor J. A. Laurin welcomed those present in an introductory speech and later thanked them for their patronage. So large and imwieldy was the crowd that it proved impossible to re- gulate the dancing—the sponsors as a result losing a lucrative source of revenue. ’The dancers profited by the hitch in plans as they had an even- ing’s dancing for the price of one dance. The sale of Tickets on the car was rot as large as anticipated but pre- liminary figures show that a com- fortable sum will be realized. The major .part of the profits 'will be turned ovet to the Parish, the Social Service Club retaining a ' sum for charitable purposesDave Lalonde was well ahead in the ticket selling con- test, in which there were four en- trants. Six Alexandrians were among the thirty-one whose names were pulled in the first round of the draw whilo ComwaU and Montreal also were weU represented. Prom this group 15 went into the next round which was later cut to 10, and then the final five from which the St. Eugene bank clerk emerged owner of the Plymouth. The other four in the finals Included one from Alexandria, two from Corn- wall and one from Alfred. An un- usual feature of the draw was that Mr. E. Bourgon of Ste. Justine had two tickets in the first round. He got no farther. Wednesday’s entertainment was a large scale affair which called for hard work in preparation. The mem- bers of the Social Service Club are to be congratulated on the success at- tained.

Premier Hepburn Proud of His Record in Campaign Speech at Oakviiie Collection of $50,000,000 Succession Duties Promised With

^ law And Order Maintained Against C. I. D. (By HAROLD DINGMAN)

(Staff Writer, The Globe and Mail) OAKVILLE, Aug. 15. — Assurance

that he would again present a balan- ced budget and give the Province good financial administration if returned to office in the forthcoming general Provincial election, was given here Saturday night by Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn before a crowd estimated at 4,000 people.

Delivering his third election cam- paign speech in as many days the Premier lashed out at Conservative critics, “who, lacking something con- structive, carped about millionaire domination” of the Hepburn Govern- ment and he anOTered Mr. Rowe’s charges that he sought an early elec- tion to cover up a Hydro shortage. "Same Old Gang.”

The Premier issued a sharp warn- ing to the electors of Ontario to “con- sider well” the outcome of a vote which wouldi place the Conserva- tive Party in power.

“The “same old gong” of Tories were seeking re-election die said, and their suecesss would mean:

1. Lawless agitators of the C.I.O. would b^ given free entry to Ontario to cause labor disputes, riots and pos- sible sabotage in Ontario Industry, now well on the road to recovery in a prosperity that was fundamentally sound.

2. Hydro rates would be increased beyond the high rates lii existence be- fore the Hepburn Government took office, andi the great public system would be again under the domination of Montreal money barons.

3. Wealthy men would be again free to defraud the public treasury of just taxation.

To Mr. Rowe's charge that he was trj'ing to cover up a power shortage, the Premier declared that, there were thousands of horsepower held in re- serve in contracts., sufficient to over- come any power shortage. Millionaire Friends.

Mr. Rowe, he declared, would soon “have to trim his sails” in his barrage of criticism of the Government and in his open support of the lawlessness sponsored by the C.I.O. The Conser-

vative Leader was himself surround- by millionaire friends, such as Gen- eral Hogarth, George S. Henry and R. B. Bennett, said Mr. Hepburn, but if he needed another millionaire to help him it would likely be that he could get help from John L; Lewi», whose revenue from the pay envelopes of workers was $36,000,000 per year. Mr. Lewis would like to see his Gov- ernment defeated, Mr. Hepburn said, for it would mean free invasion of Ontario and he could extend his am bitions as labor dictator to Ontario as well. ^

The Prime Minister spoke at the sixth annual picnic sponsored by T. A, Blakelock, M.L.A. for Halton. Growing Debt.

“On the eve of voting in a general Provincial election, I want to discuss fully and fairly some of the issues confronting this Province,” said the Premier. “In 1934, when I took office, the Province was running into debt at the rate of $6,000,000 per month. Real estate owners and farmers were seek- ing relief from taxation and the peo- ple of the Province were wondering when Onttario would be bankrupt. That was one situation we found.

“Then there were the nefarious Hy- dro contracts. This great system, of which We are so proud, was on its” way to bankruptcy.

Xifk Hill Voulh Killed Highway Accident

DONALD ARNOLD, 12 CRUSHED UNDER WHEELS OF TRUCK

MONDAY

Falling beneath the wheels of a heavily laden gravel truck while try- ing to jump on its running board, Donald Arnold, 12-year-old adopted sen of Mr. Allan OWeman, Kirk Hill, was instantly killed, Monday morning, a short distance south of Kirk Hill corner. The driver of the truck was Wilfred Roy, Summerstown, and he was engaged in hauling gravel for road repairs in the vicinity of Kirk Hill.

Young Arnold and a companion Alastair MacGillivraj' had been given a ride by Roy when on their way to pick apples. They were on their wav home when the truck returned from the pit laden with three yards of gravel and the accident occurred when they apparently tried to jump on the running board, young Arnold falling beneath the rear wheels. The young lad was terribly injured, the righl rear tire passing over almost the en- tire length of his body. In addition to internal injuries he suffered a frac- j tured skull, death being instantaneous, ■

Roy told police that he was travel- ling about six to eight miles an hour at the time of the accident and his: first intimation that something was ! wrong was a slight jar as he saw the | MacGiUivray boy jump on his running I board. He Immediately stopped but, Arnold was dead when he reached ' him. I

Dr. T. O. McLaren, assistant coro- j ner, of Lancaster, was called' to the scene ,as was Provincial Constable A R. MacLeod, ComwaU.

Hbilugiy MR. DUNCAN D. MACMILLAN

Death on Friday, August 13th, 1937, removed a highly esteemed citizen of Alexandria, in the person of Duncan D. MacMillan, who passed peacefully away at his residence, St. George Street East, at the age of 79 years, following a final illness of ten days' duration. ii.

Always an ideal and helpful neighbour, his friends were numerous and sincere. Mr. MacMillan was kind and considerate to others' and it was always his pleasure to have old time neighbors and friends in his hospi- table home.

Hold Men in l’Orignal For Theft of Cheese

HAWKESBURY, Ont., Aug. 18, — Paul Herroux, 22, and Arthur La- verdure, 27, both of Montreal, were

! arrested Inthat city this morning by !

The two men were returned to L’Orignal jail today by Provincial Constables R. H. Wannell, of Haw- kesbury, and A. Deshaitre, of L’Orlg- nal. They will appear to police court there Monday before Senior Magis- trate Labrosse.

Monckland Social The parishioners of St. Anthony’s,

Apple Hill and St Michaels, Monckland are staging a big Social in Monkland, Wednesday, Aug. 25th. This event commemorates the fiftieth year of the existence of this beautiful little Hamlet and splendid progirOmme is being prepared for the occasion.

All the friends are invited to help make this day a memorable one.

G. Calwill, a clerk in the St. Eu- gene brank of the Bank of Mont- real, was the lucky winner of the Ply- mouth car which was the door prize at the big afternoon and evening en- tertainment staged in the Armouries, here, on Wednesday, under auspices of the Social Service Club of Sacred Heart Parish. The drawing for the car had attracted a crowd estimated a,i close to 3,000 and though chief in- terest^ centred around the car draw- ing, there were many other attrac- tions including a concert, speeches, a bean supper, booths and dancing.

The entertainment got under way at 2 p.m. and lasted for 12 hours, Lar-

O’Dair’s orchestra being stUl en- gaged in supplying music for the dan- cing at 2 a.m.. A civic holiday had been declared by Town Council from 2 to 5 p.m. and this gave many. an opportunity of attending the after- noon show. Bingo and wheel-of-for- tiine booths were in operation, while sixteen young and talented acrobats from St. Joseph’s Industrial School, Al- fred, supplied interesting exhibitiems of jumping and other gymnastics. Mr. Rene Legault was chairman and he introduced the speakers, Mr. John D. MacRae MP. and Mr. Eli© Ber- trand, MP. Prescott.

The ladles of the Parish served a delicious bean supper from 5 to 7 p.m. which was patronized by a respectable number considering. the humid wea- ther.

All roads seemed to be leading to Alexandria at an early hour Wednes- day evening and the Immediate en- virons of the Armouries were weH crowded by 8.30. Well stocked booths were patronized freely along the South wall ■ of the Armouries where lights had been strung for the occa- sion.

The boys from St. Joseph’s School staged a series of exhibitions of acro- batic stunts on the armouries floor which thrilled an admiring crowd. High jumping, hurdling, pyramiding and other difficult stunts were dona with the precision which comes only with long training and Brother Eu- sebe and his boys are to be congratu- lated on the show they staged. Mayor J. A. Laurin welcomed those present in an introductory speech and later thanked them for their patronage.

So large and imwieldy was the crowd that it proved impossible to re- gulate the dancing—the sponsors as a result losing a lucrative source of revenue. ’The dancers profited by the hitch in plans as they had an even- ing’s dancing for the price of one dance.

The sale of Tickets on the car was rot as large as anticipated but pre- liminary figures show that a com- fortable sum will be realized. The major .part of the profits 'will be turned ovet to the Parish, the Social Service Club retaining a ' sum for charitable purposesDave Lalonde was well ahead in the ticket selling con- test, in which there were four en- trants.

Six Alexandrians were among the thirty-one whose names were pulled in the first round of the draw whilo ComwaU and Montreal also were weU represented. Prom this group 15 went into the next round which was later cut to 10, and then the final five from which the St. Eugene bank clerk emerged owner of the Plymouth. The other four in the finals Included one from Alexandria, two from Corn- wall and one from Alfred. An un- usual feature of the draw was that Mr. E. Bourgon of Ste. Justine had two tickets in the first round. He got no farther. Wednesday’s entertainment was a large scale affair which called for hard work in preparation. The mem- bers of the Social Service Club are to be congratulated on the success at- tained.

ELWOOD A. HUGHES General It/lanager

ALFRED ROGERS President

Hepburn Proud HI His Record

(Oontinned from page 1) Hydro Kates Cut.

“No*-, -what have -we done for the Hydro users of Ontario, is spite of Mr. Rowe’s criticism and in spite of the continued opposition of his party in the House?

“We have cut the price of Hydro to the consumers. We have removed a situation whereby it would have been ^ possible for the Government of Que-1

bee to tax Ontario Hydro users. And ■we have eliminated that vicious prac- tice of paying out Hydro money in United States bonds. In 1934 we had to pay $75,000 of Ontario money to bondholders in United States funds, that is, those bonds cost us $75,000 more than they should have. |

“There is also the Beauhamois con-i tract. That is going to the privy Coun-, oil, and there are millions of ’dollars involved. There is also involved our policy of reducing Hydro rates to farm ; consumers and others. |

“I want to know where the people stand regarding this situation. I want to know whether they want to be sub- ject to the whims of any money an.l power barons, or any court decision that will force them back under the heel of the power barons. If we s-ubmit to these power barons, not only will Hy- dro be back at its old high cost, but aie rates will have to go even higher. That is what will happen if you elect Mr. Rowe. The' same old gang that opposed us when we fought the money barons is seeking election. Succession Duties

“Now we come to the succession du- ties. Mr. Rowe knew full well that fraud had been practiced and had been put across the taxpayers. ’We’ve col- lected $28,000,000 in succession duties, mostly from estates closed by the Tor- ies. But the Conservatives in the Leg- islature opposed even a measure which would permit investigation of these estates. ’There are, I believe, some for- ty-four cases under review, and the taxpayers have been defrauded of some $50,000,000.

“If we delay the collection for one year a lot of these people could beat their cases, and a lot of money would be removed from the jurisdiction of the Province. It would be impossible to collect. I -want to stay in office and collect that $50,000,000 and turn it back to the people of this Province.

“Do not misunderstand me. This is not a case of soaking the rich. Suc- cession duties in Ontario are not un- necessarily high, but it is a case of stopping crooks defrauding the people and the Government of rightful taxes. Timber Administration.

"Now let me review our timber ad'- ' ministration. ’When we took office Northern Ontario was practically stag- nant. Millions of acres of timber areas had been alienated from the Crown. We took back those areas and permit- ted development. Now there are eight mills going up in Northern Ontario. Revenue tothe Province was $3,000,000 this year,and will be $7,000,000 by the end of next year. That’s not the only benefit. There is the great benefit of employment; for there is not a sing- le employable man in Northern On- tario without a job or on relief,

“Mr. Rowe has criticised me on the point of police administration In strikes. I have never sent police to any municipality except at the request Of the municipality,, and then the only instructions given were to main- tain law and order in fhat municipali- ty.

“I believe in the rights of working n>en to organize and to strtike if they ■wish. But I also believe in the rights of a working man to work when he wants ’to.

“Mr. Rowe gave no assistance to the Province during the labor crisis and when that crisis was sweeping the Province he stood back and criticised those -who were trying to make this a safe idace in which to live and work. I believe Mr. Rowe is going to have to trim his sails a little. Treatment of Veterans.

‘But now he talks about inhumane treatment of returned soldiers by this Govèm’rfient. So far as returned sol- diers are concerned we have done more than any other Government to help them. Dd you know that 25 per cent, of the persons employed by the Gov- ernment are returned soldiers? Com- pare that with the Bennett Govern- ment which let out 10,000 veterans. ■Any returned soldier who is qualified for any position is given preference by this-Government.

“Nowjook at the financial record of your Government in the past three years. '-That record .stands out like a beacon on the North American Con- tinent. For the first time in a century the budpt has been balanced.

*You people who have some regard for this MUntry of yours and for the welfare, of the children which will follow you, you have to choose be- tv/een two leaders to carry on a pros- perity that is fundamentally sqund.

More people are employed today, there Is more revenue coming into the treasury there has been given a real measure of relief in taxation. $900,000 Saved.

I “Here in Halton County alone a to- tal of $900,000 has been saved the tax- payers because of the Governments administration in such affairs as high- ways, old age pensions and mothers’ allowances. At the same time we have actually been reducing the debt.

“But Mr.. Rowe talks so:- glibly about increasing the debt.

“■Why shouldn’t he? “He has never supported ,a Govern-

ment that reduced the debt. He sup- ported Mr. Ferguson, Mr. Henry and Mr. Bennett when those Leaders wen taking this country into debt. I sup- ported the Robb Budget, the Dunning Budget and now this Government has balanced its Budget and is reducing the debt.

“Now I say I can repeat that if I S'>

back to power. It is up to the people to choose.

Liquor Control Board. “Another thing Mr. Rowe features

in his attack on this Administration is the Liquor Control Board. You will

'notice that he says nothing about toll- gates, but I will say some thing to you, I will just present the figures for the last year of the Tory Administra- tion and the first year of our Admin- istration, and you can use your judg- ment.

“In our first year of office we re- duced the cost of administration of liquor by $542,000, compared with the last year of Mr. Henry’s Government. In that same year we increased re- venue by $2,500,000, .compared with Mi Henry’s last year.

' “We have no intention of .granting licenses to restaurants. We are trying honestly to administer a very diffi- cult act. If, any one doubts our hon- esty he can go ahead and examine the records fully.

“Our whoje recqjrd, has been,,one of cleaning up an unsavoury condition in the Province.

“Do hot be led astray by this silly talk of me being dominated by Mil- lionaires. Did the millionaires like it when we Imposed the income tax? Didi they like it when we took away their timber concessions in the North?. Did they like it when we cancelled the Hydro contracts?

‘-‘Now I don’t think Mr. Rowe is lacking in millionaire friends. One of his friends is General Hogarth, who made more millions in the exploita- tion of our natural resources than any other man. Then there is Mr. Henry, not a poor man by any means. And Mr. Bennett, who is not going to the poor house. Bennett actually put up $500,000 into his party’s campaign funds.

“Never did a man have more sub- servient followers than Mr. Bennetc. When he pointed his finger they sat down row after row.

“What about Prank O’Connor?” shouted a voice in the audience.

“Yes, I’ll tell you about him,” re- torted Ml'. Hepburn. “He made his money honestly in this country, and he stays here where he made it, pay- ing his taxes honestly, not like some others, friends of Mr. Rowe, who go to Nassau to evade taxation. Not long ago Mr. O’Connor gave $500,000 to charity. I say I’m proud to be his friend. Friendship of Lewis.

,“Mr. Rowe has another millionaire friend. One whom you ali know about. I understand Mr. John L. Lewis, the would-be labor dictator, has an in- come Of $36,000,000 per year. Mr. Rowe complains about his campaign funds, but might not Mr. Lewis like to see this Government be defeated, and might not he contribute some of his millions, taken from the pay envelopes of the workers, to süpport Mr. Rowe.

“If he defeated this Goovernment the doors would be open to him andi he could carry on his invasions. I think Mr. Rowe would be well advised to let alone this talk of millionaires.

“We want the people of Ontario to tell us whether they want us to go on collecting succession duties they have been defrauded of taking back timber concessions which were ille- gally granted and reducing Hydro rates. -

“Today I - am , happy and satisfied with the three yeqrs of reform' ad- ministration behind me. I want the people to tell me what they think of me and what they ®ink of ;^we. This

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN w W W IP

THERE IS VAST DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ACQUAINTANCES AND TRUE FRIENDS

^ ^— How important are friends to you and how

much do you depend on them? Ask yourself these questions and answer truthfully. Perhaps you have never thought seriously of friendship. Are you one who will consider a friend any one with whom one pals about or with whom one is on terms of inti- macy? That isn’t necessanily so. One may be thrown in with associates who are gay and charming but quite lacking in any of the qualities that make for friendship.

No matter how popular a girl may be it is like- ly that the statement ‘she has a host of friends” is an over-statement. Friends do not usually come in carload lots. If one has two on three, real friends upon whom one can depend in time of need it is about'all one can, or should ,expect.

It’s a threadbare old cliche that one has to be a friend to have one, but like most old saws it is true. When one finds oneself lacking in friends the lack is, like as not, within one’s self. Most of us are self-oentered and most of us find the days too short to crowd in all the things to be done. That is one reason and enough, for not seeking new friend ships. But busy folks have no time to moan over the fact that other's busy as themselves pass them by. It’s the woman who isil’t busy who broods over a lack of companionship and who frets openly, or pines secretly, over the fact that she has no friends.

Circumstances over which one has no control make it necessary for us to he constantly filling gaps in friendship’s ranks. Friends move away, or are taken away ; many inavoidable things occur and friendships suffer. If one must have friendhhips right at hand it is necessary to keep making new contracts and forming new bonds. One should not expect others to make all the advances. Friend- ship is a matter of give and take. It’s quite possible that a person one wants for a friend may be held back by the same inhibitions as yours. Meet cordiality with'cordiality. Don’t be afraid to show your liking for a person who seems inclined to like you.

In the vacation period we are all inclined to see new faces and to have opportunities for form- ing new friendships. Summer associations are very often like ships that pass in the night but when they have been pleasant ones it is a pity for them to die off. Make some effort to continue the acquain- tance. But by the same token, as our Irish friends say, don’t make the mistake of taking casual friends too seriously.

We have all been cautioned, at one time or an-; otl^oil, against taking summer flirtations too much to hea,rt. The same caution should be used in weigh- ing summer’s casual friendships. Time alorie"WW- tell how genuine such friends and sweethearts,-are. But give time a chance to tell. There are women given to,sudden, violent friendships with other wo- men. In ’ lio time, at all such women are deep in confidences tba.t never, should be.given and usuallj' in no time at all, they, are .s'vyo'rn enemies because these confidences give ,an opportunity i,for betrayal. When we become stronger souls, capable of'taking a broader interest in life, we will become less de- pendent on the things that pass for friendship. After all, one need not be constantly in touch with a friend to be assured of his friendship; Most cer- tainly one can have a very close contact with plea- sant companions who make no bid for friendship. It is important to be discerning enough to make a distinction! between friends and companions.—

them at 50 degrees Fahrenheit for a month or more in August and September, just before planting them in the early fall in the pots or flats, in which they are to be forced in tine home or greenhouse.

This is now a recognized method, a.nd dealers sell bulbs treated in this way for growing indoors Or in greenhouses. Bulbs sold to home gardeners are not stored cold because it would promote too early blooming in the garden, when flowers might be nipped by wintry weather. Thanksgiving daffo- dils ai'C possible, and it is comparatively easy to have plenty of fine quality daffodils by Christmas. 0

DISHES FOR HOT WEATHER

The following baked -dishes are sufficiently high-in food value to be used as main-course dishes on hot days. Bread crumbs furnish valuable car- bohydrates and proteins; salmon and Lima beans also yield proteins; butter provides fat; while the tomatoes, lemon juice and green peas take care of the minerals and vitamins. Best of all, the dishes are good.

Hot Salmon Salad : Two-thirds cup fine dry bread crumbs, 1-2 cup milk, 1 large can (2 cups) salmon, flaked, 4 tablespoons lemon juice, 1-2 tea- spoon salt, 2-3 cup cooked peas. 1 tablespoon melt- ed butter.

Spred in greased casserole dish. Top with re- maining dry bread crumbs mixed with melted but- ter. Bake in modreate oven at 375 degrees F. about 30 minutes, or until crumbs are lightly browned. Serves 6.

Escalloped Corn, Lima Beans and Tomatoes. Two cups cooked corn, cut from cob. 3-4 cup cooked Lima beans, 2 cups sliced tomatoes, 1 1-2 teaspoons salt, 1-8 teaspoon pepper. 1 cup dry bread crumbs, 3 tablespoons melted butter.

Mix 2 tablespoons bread crumbs with I table- spoon melted butter and set aside. Mix remaining in- gredients, pour into buttered baking dish. Sprinkle buttered erumbis on top an dbake in moderate oven. 375 degrees P. for 45 minutes. Serves six.

RECIPES FOR FRUIT DRINKS

Fruit punch is popular these days—on the lawn, the verandah, qnd even inside the home. The sugar in drinks jof this kind is a quick- energy food that will bolster a lagging system quickly; on a hot day.

The list of. fi'iuit juices suitable for cool drinks is almost., endless, but orange and fi’eshly-squeezed lima .jui.ee-are always favbnites. To the following basiô'Teeipes 'infty bn addedy'in-any- preferred pro-’ portion,- the sweetened juice of raspberries, pine- apple, cherries or grapes.

• . , .Fruitade: eluice of 2 oranges, juice of 1 lime, 6 tablespoons-sugar,'3 cups water.

Raspberry punch: 1 cup raspberries, 1 cup currants, 1 lime, 1 pint boiling water, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup tea.

Crush fruit and strain through a cloth. "With- out taking the pulp from the cloth, put it into an- other dish and pour the boiling water over it. Drain off, but do not squeeze or it will be muddy. Add the sugar to the liquid,-and stir until it-is dissolved. Cool thoroughly before adding the .fruit juice and tea. - ■

PLEATS ARE IMPORTANT IN AUTNMN FASHIONS

New Yoiik.—^After giving some early fa,11 collec- tions a careful scrutiny it is noticeable that pleats are played up. They are particularly important worked all around the skirt of a one-piece shirtwaist dress or a two-piece frock with bolero top. They are also fa.vored grouped in panel effect from neck to hem.

Chiffon-weight woollen is pointed out as par- ticularly important for eanly autumn, especially in black. Quite a few knitted wool fabrics are featur- ed, one of the most striking having Mexica,n stripes.

A fabric very highly thought of is a “wool twist,” because owing to its lustrous effect and weave, it gives similar effect to the “linen twist” of this summer’s beach wear.

Stress is laid on the coat frock with princess flare in the skirt, to short sleeve frocks, to models with slight draping introduced in the slide fastener dt the neckline, to dresses with high necks, some finished with tiny leather buckling straps to match other trimming, and to touches of pique or shark- skin in white. Black sheer woollen is taking ex- tremely, well.

Because the 'high style trend in woollens has been chiefly in the direction of smoother surfaces. It is particularly interesting to analyze what high style houses are doing. The suedes and the velvety twills and broa,deloths are ahead of last year’s. You see some in every high style collection.

Fabrics with a rich look that can be traced to their surface interest are very prominent. They run high, in favor from heavy sports coatings to sheer dress wools for aftennoon dresses.

The surface-interest coating tha,t has taKen a -strong grasp is a firm mossy crepe. It has lots of ■spring and tailors very crisply. The tiny, shiny nub -glistens -enough to give the fabrie life, but at a dis- tance the impression is of a smooth coating. 0

COLD STORAGE MAKES “DAFFIES” EARLY BLOOM

Daffodils, bloom in the garden for only a com- paratively short season, but they a,fe“in season” at the flori,sts’ shops for months. Experiments proved that bulbs could be made to bloom earlier by storing 1 to supply wa,shcloths.

Tomato Cocktails Now that tomatoes are plentiful, the following

recipes taken from the circular “Tomato juice and Tomato Cocktails” issued by the Dominion De- partment of Agriculture may prove interesting. Tomato Cocktail (No. 1) »

A generiouk supply of cleansing tissues and a large roll of absorbent cotton .should go into the bag of every va,cationist or traveller. Tissues are good not only for cleansing, but serve as handker- chiefs, dustcloths or whatever is needed.

Free From Sciatica For 39 Fears

IN PERFECT HEAL'TH AT 73 THANKS TO KRUSCHEN

Thirty-five years ago this septua- genarian was helpless with sciatica. Then he heard of Kruschen. Since that day, he has enjoyed- perfect) health. Here is his remarkable story:—

“Thirty—five years ago, I had a severe attack of sciatica, and could scarcely move lor about six weeks. Then I started taking Kruschen — about half-a-teaspoonful every morn- ing in hot water. In a few weeks, I got rid of the awful pain in my hips. I have never had to consult a doctor- since, and am still in perfect health at 73 years of age, which I can only at- tribute to taking Kruschen Salts every morning.”—T.A.

Most people grow old: long before their time because they neglect one vital need of health—the need of in- ternal cleaaliness. Eventually, they start the healthy Kruschen habit. Then, probably for the first time in their lives, they start getting rid, every day, of all waste matter from the syst- tem. The result is renewed health and: vigour. Ailments due to clogged sys- tems vanish, youth returns, and life becomes really worth living.

Horses! horses! horses! Hunters and jumpers, draught, carriage and general purpose animals are provided: for in the prize list arranged for the Horse Show at the Canadian National Exhibition.

True education is that which- in- forms the mtnd and teaches it to rea- son.

Stop Reckless Driving!

l£ you drive recklessly and have not made up your mind to stop it, you are going to find yourself in serious trouble — soon/ The Department of Highways is determined to put reckless drivers off the road and keep them off. If you need your car in business, stop and think for a minute what would happen if you had your driving license cancelled. You might lose your job. But what is your job compared to the death, crippling, or injuring of a good citizen ! Reckless drivers are criminals going along our highways breaking laws, maiming and killing defenseless people. Our laws are adequate and fair. Obey them and you will keep out of trouble ; break them and take the consequences.

You cannot say you have not been warned. Stop speeding! Stop cutting in ! Stop passing on hills. Stop taking chances of any kind. If you must drive slower than the average traffic, keep well to the right side of the highway or use the side roads. Do not block other traffic.

ONTARIO MOTORISTS WILL CO-OPERATE

to put reckless drivers 'where they belong. Here is what to do. When you see a motorist dri'ving in a manner dangerous to the public, take his number, make a careful note of the actual time and place and when you reach your destination write to the Motor Vehicles Branch, Department of Highways, Toronto, gi'vdng full details. We do not infrite reports of minor infringements of the traffic laws; you are requested to use sound judgment. We will deal adequately with offenders.

Allowing five days for germination, which it took, the average dally growth for sixty days was 2 1-4 Inches per day. The stalk referred to was not especi-

ally selected, for Mr. MacKUUcan has an eleven acre field that will be ready for the sUo in ten days’ time and which wlU average between eleven and twelve feét in height.

RESIDENCE BURNED Shortly before noon on Monday, fire

destroyed the residence of Samuel Mask, Catherine St. West. The bJazg evidently started from an overheated stove in the summer kitchen and as tliere waa no one in thg house at the time the fire had gained great head-, way before the alarm was given When thé firemen arrived with the chemical, practically the whole inter- ior of the modem structure was envel- oped in flames, so all that could be done,: was to prevent the spread of the fire.

Fortimately the doomed building was isolated so there was not much danger hi that regard. Much of the contents were saved.

Sympathy goes out to Mr. Mark and children.

idsuiumer Wedding MARTIN—BOISVENUE

A happy event 'was solemnized at Our Lady of the Angels Church, Moose Creek, on Tuesday morning, August 3rd, at 8 o’clock, when Marie Donalda, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Bois- venue, became the bride of Josepli Aza Martin, son of Mr. J. Samuel Martin and the late Ms. Martin of Dyer.

The ceremony was performed by Rev. A. L. Cameron, PP., in the pre- sence of many relatives and friends of the young couple.

Given in marriage by her father, the bride looked charming in a lovely gown of white satin and lace with ac- cessories to match, her shoes being satin trimmed with silver. She carried

bouquet of white carnations and maiden hair fern, j.:.

The bridesmaklr-Miss Stella Bois- venue^ sister of the bride, wore tur- quoise blue georgette with blue hat and shoes to match. She wore a cor- sage of pink roses.

After the ceremony breakfast was served at the home of the bride to about sixty-five guests when the ycung couple were presented with” ma»y useful gifts.

Later Mr. and Ms. Martin left on a motor trip to the Thousand Islands, Ogdensburg, Massena and other places in the States. ’They will reside hi Dyer.

On PridaF evening, August 6th, a reception was tendered M. and Ms. Martin in Community Hall, Moose Creek ,’whlch was largely attended due to the popularity of the young couple.

Old Ohio Court Rule Some court-trial laws in effect in

several counties -in early Ohio were said to result in "men being hung so that jurymen might dine.” From the time that the case went into the hands of the jury until a verdict was reached, the members of the jury were not allowed to eat, sleep, con- verse with anyone else, or have any light. So tliat these prohibitions were not violated, the sheriff was required to take this oath: ‘‘You do solemnly swear that, so far as in your power, you win keep this jury together w'ithout meat or drink, water ex- cepted, fire or candle; that you will suffer no person to speak to them, nor speak to them yourself unless by direction of the court, only to ask ‘are you agreed upon your ver- dict?’ and this you do as you shall answer to God.”

Kush Job in A. D. 122 The discovery of a dedication tab-

let among the ruins of Hadrian's wall proves that this line of ancient fortifications was built in less than five years, observes a writer in Pearson’s London Weekly. The wall, running from Wallsend, at tlie mouth of the River Tyne; to Brown-, ees on the.River SoJway., was built' by the Romans, under thq.Érnperor Hadrian, as a means of protecting Roman Britain from invasion by the barbarian elans of the north.

The workowas audèr .the’conlrol: of Platorius Nepos, governor,' of Britain, and the tablet, dedicated to him, mentions that he was occu- pied with the construction from A, D. 122 to 126, The building plans were constantly changed wlnle the work was in progress.

Termites Destroy Wood, Paper, Sometimes Cloth

Termites are tiny, blind insects that destroy wood, paper and some- times cloth. Their nearest living relative is the cockroach, writes a correspondent in the Boston Herald. There are many species of termites, but in this country the most com- mon are those called subterranean termites.

These termites live in colonies deep in the earth where it is dark and moist, not in the wood as many suppose. They shun light and soon die if cut off from moisture.

There are three castes of termites in a colony: The workers, which provide food and shelter tor all. The soldiers, hard-headed and with fierce jaws, who defend the colony against attack. The sexed termites at mating time, spring and fall, de- velop wings and eyes, they swarm from the ground, fly a short dis- tance, mate and then shed their wings. Each mated pair tries to creep back into the earth to found a new colony. The queen spends the rest of her life laying eggs, hun- dreds a day.

Most of the termites in any sub- terranean colony are the workers. They never stop work, day or night. Their chief duty is to provide food for the entire colony. Their food is cellulose. As wood, paper and cloth are mostly cellulose they naturally attack articles made from these materials. Their chief source of cel- lulose supply is the wood in build- ings. Even if the walls are not wood, the floors, sills, joists, etc., are. Ter- mites are seldom seen at work be- cause they are blind and work in the dark.

Musk-Ox Was First Seen Along Hudson Bay Shore

The musk-ox was first seen on the American continent by a-French of- ficer along the west shore of Hud- son bay, Canada, in 1720. The S- shaped horns are indigenous to the musk-ox in North ' America and closely resemble the horns ol the dangerous African cape buffalo.

At one time, according to scien- tists, the musk-ox roamed as far south as Philadelphia, but now they are non-migratory. One record tells of a bull that roamed less than a half mile from one spot during a whole summer.

The oxen eat the Arctic grasses, lichens, and moss and in winter they use sharp hooves to break through the snow crust to reach vegetation beneath. They have de- veloped “pushers” on their nostrils, similar to the snout of a pig.

When attacked by Arctic v/olves. the oxen form a threatening pha- lanx, heads outward.

Arctic explorers frequently have urged domestication of the animals and their importation into the Unit- ed States.

Its odor is the musk-oxen's only defense against the hard-biting flies that thrive in the Arctic circle. The musk-ox has no tail.

History of Crematioti The custom of cremation is very

ancient, and was almost universal among the Aryans of early India, the Greeks, Romans, Slavs, Kelts and Teutons, states a writer in the Philadelphia Inquirer The graves of North Europe throughout the Bronze age contain only jars of ashes. Christianity, and a belief in the resurection of the body, gradual- ly suppressed the custom of crema- tion; but. beginning in Italy in 1870. the custom revived, and has been legal there since 1877. The practice spread throughout Europe and very rapidly throughout the United States. Germany’s first crematorium was erected in 1878, England’s in 1885. The first municipally owned crematorium in England was built by the city of Hull in 1900. Crema toriums in the United States date from 1876, when Dr. F. J. LeMoyne established one at Washington. Pa

The Chaldeans The Chaldeans were not Egyp-

tians but were a.Semitic tribe, simi- lar to the Babylonians, who prob- ably migrated from Arabia into low- er Mesopotamia about 700 B. C. They were absorbed in the great Persian empire and some of their descendants probably remain in that part of Asia, They wore poly- theists and noted for their knowl- edge of astrology and occult sci- ence. It appears quite likely that the Wise Men from the East were Chaldeans or Babylonians.

Claims First Sleeoing Car That the first sleeping car to be

built and placed in actual service on this continent was designed and made in Canada is stated in an ar- ticle in the Canadian National Rail- way Magazine. The plan tor a sleep- ing car was prepared in 1859 in prep- aration tor the visit of the then Prince of Wales, later to become Edward VII, and the actual con- struction was carried out at Brant- ford, Ont., in a plant later used for rr.alleable iron castings for passen- ger and freight cars.

“Old LaFayette Hpitse” The “Old LaFayette House” built

n East Haven, Connecticut, by Cap tain Bradley, more than one hun ’ dred arid sixty years ago, is pre- served in excellent condition. The house received its name from the fact that LaFayette stayed in' it on two occasions. When Captain Bradley built his home, it was paint- ed white. The house was moved to Darien, Connecticut.

James Smithson, Founder of Institution, English

James Smithson was a natural son of Hugh Smithson, duke of N'Orth- umberland, by a Mrs. Elizabeth Mads of Wiltshire, England. He was educated at Oxford, and early be- came a chemist and scientific writ- er. One of his maxims was: “The man of science is of.no country; the world is his country, all mankind.his countrymen,” a maxim which was illustrative of his life and death; for he spent most of his life in France and Germany, was buried in Italy, and left his entire fortune, some half million dollars, to the United States government to be adminis- tered for “the increase and diffusion of knowledge among men.”

Smithson was born in England about the year 1754; the exact place and date are unknown, notes a writ- er in the Cleveland Plain Dealer. He died at Genoa, Italy, June 27, 1829, and was buried in the English cemetery near that city. In 1906 his remains were brought to this country.

As a scientist he was honored by being elected to the Royal So- ciety and many other learned bodies, but that which does most to immortalize him is the Smithsonian Institution, established by act of congress in 1846. From the income of the fund, the Smithsonian build- ing was erected, while gifts and ac- cumulated interest have since great- ly increased the endowment.

The institution aids investigators by making grants for research and exploration, providing for lectures, publishing scientific papers, initiat- ing scientific projects, etc. It has administrative charge of the Na- tional museum, the National Gallery of Art, the*National Zoological park, the Astrophysical Observatory, and other agencies.

Mortgage Plan Was Bom in Seventeenth Certtury

The mortgage is evolved from the Seventeenth century when a writ- ten document first became ob- ligatory in a property transaction.

Before that time all lands were believed rightfully to belong to the king, who, gave them to the lords with certain incidental obligations. These lords, in turn, parceled out the land to the tenants for other ob- ligations. When : lord transferred property to another nobleman, much pomp and ceremony was connected with the transaction, but there was no written document.

Existing laws require no set pat- tern in a mortgage, but certain pro- visions are demanded, notes the Philadelphia Enquirer. The docu- ment must describe the parties with reasonable accuracy, and such par- ties must be qualified to make the contract. The premises must be de- scribed with equal accuracy, and the nature and limits of the estate conveyed must be made clear. The debt must also be cited.

Labrador and Britain Labrador extends across nearly

the same latitudes as the British Isles, but the shores of Britain and Ireland are washed by a current northbound from the tropics, while the icy waters of the Arctic flow down past the irregular northeast- ern coast of North America. There is, therefore, a vast difference in climate. The British climate is for the most part comfortably temper- ate, with winters usually milder than those which prevail in Ohio. The Labrador climate is described as very severe, cold and stormy. Toward the north' its forests grad- ually diminish, the upper part of the country consisting of bare tun- dras. The Labrador winters are rated bearable and healthful, due to their dryness.

First Before British Royalty Born in 1744, Abigail Smith be-

came the wife of a young Massa- chusetts lawyer, John Adams, when she was twenty. Acknowledged as one of those who helped shape a new nation, John Adams was rewarded with the appointment of first United States minister to Great Britain in 1784, and his wife and eighteen- year-old daughter Abby joined, him in London. The following summer they curtsied, as the first bona fide Americans, before British royalty— thereby leading off a picturesque procession which a fstVored few of their sisters have continued for years.

Land for the White House The principal owners of the land

on which the city of Washington is built were Daniel Carroll, Samuel Davidson, Notley Yount and David Burnes. The land on which the White House stands belonged to Da- vid Burnes, an aged Scotchman, who ' very reluctantly gave up his 600 acres tor the federal city when negotiations were in progress for buying up land for the national cap- ital. Daniel Carroll owned a large tract of land along, the eastern branch of the Potomac river, which includes the site of the Capitol.

Mountain Lion Is Large The Amefifcan mountain lion is'

one of the largest predatory' ani- mals in the United States, some- times weighing more than 200 pounds. It is recognized by game conservationists as the greatest na- tural enemy of deer, and stockmen learn to their sorrow that when game is scarce, the mountain lion attacks young domestic stock, par- ticularly colts, lambs and kids and even lull-grown horses tuid cattle, ,

The Otttawa Spotlight - BY WILFRID EGGLESTON

Ottalwa, August 17.—Gov<ernment revenues are flowing in at a most en- couraging rate. No new taxes were imposed last session, so that the in- ,crease.^ls all due to greater activity in business. The income tax, reflecting 1936 income, is millions ahead of last year. The sales tax is bringing in vas: sians, and customs and excise re- ceipts are also well above last year’s The government for the first time in seven or eight years is taking in more than it is spending—a very agreeable experience after so much deficit. It is. too soon to make any useful predic- tion, but based on the experience of the first four months, the budget will balance next spring. If it doea it will surpass even the forecast of the Min- ister of Finance, who believed that he could keep the deficit down to 35 milllions but who expressed no hope that he could obtain a/ clear surplus above all. It will be a notable achieve- ment, for which the credit should not go to this Finance Minister or that, but to the “forgotten man” of Canada, the ordinary taxpayer.

BIG INCREASE IN DEBT since the deficits began in 1931,

Dominion Government expenditures have totalled about $850,000,000 more than government receipts, and the national debt of Canada has increased by approximately that sum.. In 1930 it stood at $2,177,763,959. It has now passed the $3,000,000,000 mark. It is almost ten times what it was when war broke out in 1914. Some people wonder if it can ever be paid. Even during the years of ‘boom” which led UR to 1929, the Dominion government only succeeded in paying off about $275,000,000, and if the Canadian Na- tional deficit is considered, the reduc- tion was smaller than that. In 1923 it was at its first post-war peak, of $2,- 453,776,869: By 1930, as mentioned above, it was down to $2,177,763,959. But by the end of 1932 all the gains of the previous decade had been lost, and through 1933, 1934, and' 1936 it continued to soar.

No one can tell if it will ever ba paid off., But it seems reasonable to suppose that the burden of it will i be reduced. The interest rate has been pared down considerably, and the per

capita burden falls also as the popu- latiau of the country rises. The pic- ture is not as gloomy as some com- mentators Would like to make out. The interest being paid out this cur- rent year is lower than it was in 1934, and lower, for that matter, than it was in 1923 and 1924, even if the to- tal debt has risen in the meantime. The per capita cost of meeting the in- terest is about $12.50 as compared wltn $12.76 in 1929, $13,92 in 1926 and $15.88 in 1921. Those, therefore, who give the impression that the burden of the national debt is steadily grow- ing heavier are quite wrong. It is substantially lighter than it was just after the war, and, in spite of the de- pression, is lighter than it was when the peak of the boom years was reach- ed.

FUTURE POLICY If Hon. Charles Dunning remains as

Finance Minister (there are inaccurate reports that he has been invited to as- sume an important milling director- ship) it is safe to predict that in the next two or three years an effort will be made to reduce the debt again, to continue the process of re-funding at lower interest rates. As soon as the bud get shows a surplus, ,there will be a clamor for reduced taxation. To a certain limited extent, this demand will probably be realised.* This tax is admitted excessive: It should come down from eight per cent as rapidly as possible, and the Liberals are on re- cord as being favorable to reduction.

The sugar tax of a cent a pound is a tax which bears most heav- dy on - the householder with a large family. As soon as the budget balances, some relief in these two spheres may confidently be expected. But the other taxes will remain as they are, and the income profits and gold taxes may even be increased. The idea will be to benefit from the fat years so that the national exche- quer can be put in shape where it could stand another recession of business. This was not done as thor- oughly in 1926-29 as many financial experts advised. If a little more had been written off the debt in the good years the government would have felt easier about borrowing more freely in

the depths of the depression, when government Spending seemed neoes- say to take up much of the slack caused by the cessation of private spending.

Metals’ Foe li Found in Corrosion, Expert Says

The word corrosion is derived from a Latin word meaning “to gnaw.’’ It describes a chemical process that goes on quietly day and night, eating up a con.siderable part Of the metals that nrien have dug, refined and wrought. Its most read- ily apparent effects are those on iron and steel (we call the corroded iron “rust’’), but it damages most other metals as well, according to Dr. Thomas M. Beck in the Chicago Tribune.

When a metal corrodes it is mere- ly returning to a state similar to that in which it was first found. There is very little difference chem- ically between iron dust and iron ore. Both are essentially compounds of iron with oxygen. The same sim- ilarity between ores and corrosion products is found among other met- als, although the nonmetallic ele- ments combined with the rnetal need not be oxygen. But no matter what they may be, their reaction with the metal is -called an oxida- tion, because it is fundamentally similar to the reaction between a metal and oxygen. The reverse change, in which a - metal is re- leased from the combining elements and returned to the metallic state, is called reduction.

The conversion of an ore to a metal is a reduction, and the cor- rosion of the metal is ah oxida- tion. These changes are regarded as electrical. When an atom is ox- idized it loses electrons (negative electricity) and becomes more posi- tively charged. Conversely, an atom becomes more negative when re- duced. In general, acids are far more corrosive to metals than is oxygen.

Ireland Honors Brendan, Saint of Discovery Fame

On St. Brendan’s day in this land where saints are al)vays remem- bered, Ireland honors the man who sailed out of Galway bay, famous for its salmon and as the gateway to the Aran isles, to discover Amer- ica more than 900 years before Co- lumbus, according to legendary ac- counts of the voyage, writes a Gal- way, Ireland, correspondent.

St. Brendan, the old story says, provisioned his ship for seven years, but needed only forty days to reach the American- shores with his four- teen monks. He believed that his new land was the paradise of Adam and Eve, but the land he discovered soon came to be regarded as myth- ical, although for years after Amer- ica was found by Columbus St. Brendan’s island was sought by voyagers.

In the Middle ages everyone knew the story of the saint’s journey and it is found in manuscripts of all languages in western Europe. Co- lumbus himself, or his brother some say, went to Galway for further in- formation bbfore sailing in 1492.

Even after America was discov- ered the old legend was still be- lieved in, for as late as 1721 Spain sent vessels in search of St. Bren- dan’s island and English charts long located it in the Atlantic. Many Americans visit Galway, but few know the tale of the Irish saint who called America paradise.

Display of the Flag The flag should be displayed only

from sunrise to sunset; it should be displayed on national and state holi- days and on historic and special occasions ; it should be hoisted bri.sk- ly and lowered slowly and cere- moniously. In raising and lowering the flag it should never be allowed to touch the ground. When the flags of states or cities or pennants of societies are flown on the same halyard with the flag of the United States, the American flag is always at the peak. When flown from ad- jacent staffs one flag of the United States should be hoisted first. No flag or pennant should be placed above or to the right of the flag of the United States, except where a number of flags are grouped or displayed from staffs, when the flag of the United States should be in the center.

The Seasons Our seasons are caused by the

fact that the earth’s axis is tilted 23 degrees, 27 minutes from perpendic- ular to the plane of its path around the sun. Hence the sun’s rays strike the earth at a constantly varying angle and only twice during the year, when the earth’s axis is at right angles to the direction of the sun, are day and night of equal duration. These are called the “Equinoxes,” and indicate the be- ginning of spring and autumn. The points when the earth, in its orbit around the sun, has its axis in- clined at greatest angle toward or away from the sun, are the mo- ments when, respectively, day or night begins to get longer and are known as “solstices.” It is then that summer or winter begins.

Test for Fishermen The mighty Salmon river, which

cuts through the wilderness north of Sun Valley lodge in Idaho, was nev- er navigated downstream until a lit- tle over 40 years ago. At that time an old river man, Harry Guleke. built a special flat-bottomed boat and rode the boiling rapids down- stream from Salmon City. The same type of boat is favored in riding the river. The Salmon, which once turned back the expedition led by Lewis and Clark in 1805, has never been conquered upstream.

”... I don’t see any need of Beverage Rooms”

Overheard at a golf club

1st Member: I enjoy a drink as much as any man, and I certainly would never vote for prohibition. But I stiU don’t see the need for beverage rooms.

2nd Member: Never use them yourself, eh?

1st Member: Well, no. I sometimes have a glass of beer with lunch; but'I’d wiUingly give that up to abolish aU the abuses beverage rooms give rise to.

2nd Member: What abuses?

1st Member: Well this business of people drinking too much and— what is it the drys say?-—"reeling home”?

2nd Member: Of course, there are always a few people who abuse any privilege. But you saw plenty more in the days of prohibition, didn’t you? As a matter of fact, you’ll find that lots of people who used to overdo it regularly in blind pigs, drink pretty moderately in the present day beverage room...

1st Member: Maybe you’re right there: But I stiU think they’re sort of unnecessary. Why wouldn’t just sale by the case do?

2nd Mem,ber: P.erhaps beverage rooms are unnecessary to you. You can afford to buy anything you want and drink it in comfortable surroundings. But what about the working man? Why have a law only for the rich !

1st Member: How do you mean?

2nd Member: A man engaged in hard manual labour may need a glass of beer after the day’s work more than anyone else. Are you going to force him to buy a whole case at a time? Or lug it home with him, before he can have even one glass. Is it sporting, is it democratic to keep aU the priidleges that appeal to you, while you take away from those less fortunately placed the chance of drinking a wholesome, mildly-stimulating beverage in legal surroimdings?

1st Member: It is a bit different put that way—I guess you’re right.

Synopsis of preceding Instalments: Aftfe two lonesome years in New

York, Jeanne MacDonald secretary to Caileton Conway, falls in love with Bryan Paterson and for nearly a year has worn the young engineer’s ring but has been delaying the weddlrtg as she wants to save for her widowed mother. Then Bryan insists they be married on Christmas Eve, saying he is being sent to South America and that he will take care of Mrs. Mac- Dtmald who Uvea alone on a rocky farm near Hilton. The next day Con- way says he is retrenching and must let her go.. Wealthy Lance Larkin stops at her desk as he always does when he comes to consult Conway, his attorney. She hurries to thé apart- ment 'she shares with Sandra Sumner so she wont miss Bryan’s regular phone caU. Sandra asks her why she wastes her time on Bryan when Larkin is interested in her, and calls Martin Downes, a Hilton boy, a boor from the sticks. Bryan doesnt phone. Mart takes her to dinner. He growls about his underpaid job.. Sanda intimates she is seeing Bryan. Heartbroken, Jeanne goes to her mother and is amazed to learn Mart has aimounced their engagement. She becomes Gor- don Bartlett’s secretary. His sister Cé- cile persuades her to masquerade as her and meet her Aunt Cecile who has been abroad for years so CUly can attend Deke Lord’s house party. Jeanne and Aunt Cecile meet Bryan unexpeetedly and later the old lady insists she invite him to dine with them. Mart, dnmk, phones Jeanne ac the Bartlett penthouse at 3 a:m., say- ing he knows now why he hasn’t been seeing her. Larkin, ,who loves Clily, phones and when he learns about Lord’s house party is much upset. Brj'an accepts the dinner Invitation but is cool to Jeanne. He says good- bye in a final manner. Mart tells her Bryan is ill.

INSTALMENT 16. Working that day was one of the

most difficult things Jeanne had ever had to do. She could think of nothing but Bryan, ill and perhaps alone. Gor- don Bartlett was in an exacting mood and several times he spoke sharply to Jeanne when she seemed inattentive.

“It’s not like you, Miss MacDonald,” he said finally. “You are usually so accurate. I’ve corrected this sheet three times.”

Jeanne flushed. “I’m sorry,” she said. “I’ll try to do better.”

He smiled at her kindly then. “Why don’t 3'ou run along and have some lunch. Perhaps that will help.”

Jeanne nodded and left the room She wasn’t hungry but it was a relief to get away from the desk and Bart- lett. While she was having her des- sert Cilly strolled into the room lor her breakfast. She hadn’t joined Jeaime since they had had words over Aunt CecUe. But it never seemed to occur toCilly that Jeanne would feel any resentment. She talked as though they had always been fast friends.

“I’m so bored,” she complained, pushing an omelet away from her. ”I think I’ll go on a cruise after Christ mas. It’s nothing but the same old roimd; of parties every day.. Nothing is fun any more. I can’t see how you stand it, werking day after day.”

“I really like the work,” Jeanne said said. “Your brother is writing a won- derful book.” ,

Cilly shrugged her shoulders, “Lance says it’s work I need. He thinks I’m spoiled because I have too much money.”

“Isn’t there anything you would really like to do?” Jeanne asked her.

finishing her day’s work, decided to end the misery and uncertainty. She would go to see Bryan. At least she could find out how lie was and whether he had been taken to a hospital. There would be some comfort in knowing.

He won’t want to see me,” she told herself, “but perhaps I can talk to the nurse or doctor. I’ll feel better then.”

As she left the library she ran into Lance Larkin who was wandering aimlessly down the hall.

“The apartment seems to be desert- ed,” he said (With a smile. “Thank goodness. I’ve found you.”

T think Cilly went out right after lunch,” Jean said, “and Mr. Bartlett is on an errand downtown.”

came to pay a farewell call,” Lance said.

He looked tired, Jeanne thought, and the usual impudent good humor was missing from his smile.

“Farewell?” she echoed. “Yes. I thought I might as well go

<lown to Florida with my boat before the holidays. My company doesn’t seem to be in great demand in New York.”

“Oh, that’s nonsense,” Jeaime pro- tested, thinking suddenly how strange it would be without Lance in the back- ground. She rarely saw him and yet it was' pleasant to know that he was around.

He looked at her almost pleadingly. Will you miss me?” Jeanne nodded. “I will, really. I

hate to think of j’our going away.” 'Will you do something for me, lit-

tle Jeanne? Just one last favor before I leave?”

He was smilling at her now, looking more like the Lance she used to know when she woked for Carleton Conway.

“■What could I do for you?” she ask- ed him in surprise.

“Just this. I want j’ou to have din- ner with me tonight.”

Jeanne raised distressed eyes. “You shouldn’t have asked me to do that,’ she said in a low voice.

He looked at her strangely. “You’re wrong,” he said finally. “I should have asked you long ago but it was wrong cf me to do it here in Ceeile’s home. I yealize that. But I mèan It, Jeanne. I’ve wanted you to dine with me for a long while„ May I call ' j'ou after you get home this afternoon? Or will you let me drive you there?”

Jeanne dropped her eyes. “I’m not going home,” she said. “A friend, a man I know, is ill.” Without warning tears flooded her eyes.

“Jeanne, what is it?” Lance bent over her, concerned. Don’t cry, please. Perhaps there is something I can do.”

Jeanne shook her head. Opening her purse, she took out a handker-

“It’s going to be much better that way,,” he said firmly. “After all, I want more out of life than just chas- ing around trying to keep up with a crazy kid like Cilly. She doesn’t know from one moment to the next what she wants.”

‘‘Are you really going away now?” Lance looked down at her upturned

face.; “I thought it was a good idea,” he said slowly, “but something tells me I’ll put it off for a week or two, per- haps longer.”

Jeanne could feel the color creep into her cheeks. The look In Lance Larkin’s eyes disturbed her. She turn- ed away.

“You can’t go aiway before Cilly’s party. She’s counting on you, I know. I saw the place cards.”

Lance whistled softly. “That’s right. She was planning to have it this week, wasn’t she?”

Jeanne nodded. “I’ll stay, and since I’ll be in town

I’ll go to the party, but I want you to know that Cilly isn’t the reason why I’m not going south right away.” His voice was soft.

“You mustn’t say that, Lance.” “Why not? For months I’ve been

trying to see you, to get to know you better, and you keep putting me off. Hasn’t it ever occurred to you, Jeanne, that I am fond of you and that I could be even fonder if you’d ever give me half a chance.”

“It wouldn’t be right, Lance,” Jeanne insisted In a distressed voici. “We live in separate worlds.”

He sighed. “That’s so fooollsh. Jeanne but we’ll argue about that some other time. Is this the house?”

“Yes.” The yellow car came to a stop b3-

for the large house where Bryan had an apartment. “I wish there was something I could do for you, Jeanne. I hate to see j’OU so upset.”

“It was grand of you to drive me here,” Jeanne said. “There isn’t a thing else you can do.

He looked down at her. “You’re an independent child, aren’t you? And do you know, I rather like it.”

Without waiting for a reply, he jumped out of the car and came around to open the door for her.

“I’m awfully sorry he’s ill, Jeanne. Even if I can’t have you for myself, I want to see you happy.”

Jeanne thanked him again and crossed the snowy- sidewalk to the en- trance as Lance drove away. Her mind was in a whirl. It was difficult to be- lieve that Lance was really interest- ed in her, and even now it did not make much impression. Bryan was iP. Nothing else seemed of any impor- tance.

Before she entered the building she I turned quickly and went into a florist shop at the comer. She would get

thought, “I mustn’t cry. Even if Bryan is very ill and can’t see me I will have to be brave.” Her hands on the long green box of flowers were trembling.

It seemed hours until the clerk fin- ally turned back to her. “I am very sorry but Mr. Patterson is not allow- ed to see any one.”

Jeanne stared at him hopelessly. “Do you know if he is worse?”

The clerk eyed her curiously.” The nurse said he was doing as well as could be expected.

“I see. Thank you,” Jeanne said fin- ally with dry Ups.

And forgetting even to leave the flowers, she started aeross üie lobby. As she passed the elevator some one stepped out. it was Sandra. Jeanne moved towards her as if in a dream, stunned at seeing her there. And yet it wasn’t strange, she told herself. Of course Bryan would want to see San- dra,

’The girl’s bright Ups were sneer- ing. “Fancy seeing yuo here!”

‘How is Brj'an?” Jeanne gasped. It tore at her heart to have to ask San- dra, but what did her pride matter when Bryan was ill?

Sandra’s black eyes narrowed but when she.spoke it was in the same low, tantalizing drawl, and her smile was knowing. “He’s not much better but he’s resting now. It I were you I wouldn’t try to see him. He has pneu- monia. The doctor and nurse are do- ing their best to keep him quiet.” And then she added in a voice edged as sharp as a knife, “He isn’t allowed to have 'VISITORS, you know. I am the only one who may see him.”

For a long moment Jeanne stared at her. “I see,” she said finally in a faint voice.

Without a backward glance at San- dra she stumbled away from her and, drawing the collar of her coat close around her chin to hide its trembling, she went out onto the snowy street.

So it WAS Sandra he loved and Sandra who was .permitted to be with him when he was ill. There was no room in Bryan’s life any longer for Jeanne MacDonald.

“Jeanne.” Some one was calling her. It was Lance. The yellow roadster

was parked at the curb just a few feet from the entrance to the apart- ment house. He jumped out of the car and came towards her.

“Oh, Lance. You shouldn’t hav-e come back,” she sobbed. Suddenly she was in his arms, her head pressed against his shoulder. He held her gen- tly.

‘I should have waited in the first place,” he said soothingly. “And now that I’ve seen that heartbroken little face of yours I’m very glad that I did come back. Isn’t he - any better, Jeanne?”

She drew herself away from him. “I couldn’t even go up to see him.” A sob tore at her throat again.

He looked down at the florist’s box she was still holdiig, crushed under one arm.

“You forgot to leave the flowers,” he said. “Look here. I’ll take them in and leave them at the desk. Walt for me.”

She stood motionless in the middle of the sidewalk, with people pushing past her impatiently, but she was not even aware of them. 'When Lance came back he drew her cdose to him and led her to the oar.

“Get in,” he said. ‘I’m going to wrap you up in a blanket and take you for a ride. The fresh air might put some color in those pale cheeks. I won’t even talk to you unless you want me to, when you are hungry just tell me and we’ll stop in some- where for dinner.”

“Isn’t he here?” Jeanne asked. “Have they taken him to the ospital?”

“No, he’s here but I believe he’s very ill. I don’t know whether you can see him.”

Death to Man or Beast He patted her hand. “You don’t of-

ten give me the chance to be.”

It seemed to Jeanne that they drove for hours through the snowy city. They were both silent. Lance was bent over the wheel his eyes never wavering from the ley streets. And Jeanne, numb with anxiety, was content to sit at his side without saying anything, almost without thinking. It was snowing hard now and the flakes drifted in at the open sides of the roadster but she was not even conscious that her arm rest- ed on the door was damp and cold.

Finally she spoke to him. “This is no fun for you, Lance. I’m the worst company in the world tonight.”

He turned to glance down at her briefly. “It doesn’t matter,” he said. I think both of us are in a pretty bad way. 'Won’t you let me take you to dinner now?”

For the first time Jeanne was con- scious of her appearance. “I can’t go any place dressed this way,” she said, looking at herself ruefully in the mir- ror.

Her hair was windblown and her brown felt hat was damp with snow.

“Both of us look pretty forlorn,” he said. “That’s the trouble with a road- ster in the winter but it’s the only type of car I like and I’m never in New York very much during the winter.”

“Can’t we just stop for a sandwich somewhere?” she suggested. “I'm not hungry anyway.”

Lance nodded, slowing the car’. “There’s a little restaurant at the corner of this street. That might do.”

“Any place at all,” Jeanne said wearily, without even looking up.

Lance parked the car, unrapped the robe and helped Jeanne out. It wasn’t- until they walked through the revolving door that Jeanne realiz- ed that the restaurant was Eddie’s, the place Mart always took her.

‘It must be late,” she thought. “Mart wouldn’t be here now.”

Lance led her to a booth at the side ot the room.

“Let’s have a cocktail,” he said as he helped her out of her coat. “It will do us both good. Your coat sleeve is all wet. I certainly haven’t taken very good care of you.”

She smiled at him faintly. “You’ve been sweet and I’d love a cocktail.”

Would a cocktail help, she wonder- ed. It seemed to her now that she was so tired nothing would ever make her feel rested again.

“I never realized how weak I am,” she said quietly. “I’m not brave at all. The first hard thing that happened has left me complètely limp.”

“You are brave enough,” Lance said quietly, and then added with a twist- ed smile, “At least it gives me some one to take care of. In all my useless life I’ve never been particularly im- portant to any one.”

That was probably true, Jeanne thought, Cilly never needed Lance. And he craved to have some one de- pendent on him, some one he could protect.

Sipping the cocktail, she looked at him closely. Somehow, tired and dis- couraged as he seemed to be tonight, he lacked the charm that she had al- ways admired. His eyes, usually blue and sparkling, were dull and lifeless, and,even his crisp brown hair seemed to have lost its lustre.

“He is miserable withoout Cilly,” she thought, “just as I am without Bryan. We are both in love with peo- ple who do not love us in return. It's almost funny. Here we sit, wretched and unhappy, just because we have lost everything we ever counted on.’* And then- she laughed aloud, a high, hj-sterical little laugh.

“Don’t do that,” Lance leaned for- ward. “I hate to see you so terribly unhappy.”

“It doesn't matter any more, Lance,” she said. “Really it doesn’t. I'm learning now that one can’t ex- pect happiness except m snatches.”

He shook his head. “And you were the only really happy person I ever knew.”

“Oh, don’t I? Say, who’s got a bet-

What do you mean by that?” Lance demanded.

Mart opened his wallet and threw a clipping down on the table. Jeanne knew without looking at it what is was and her heart sank. Lance read the clipping and then looked at hfer, searching her eyes.

“Are you engaged tb this man, Jeanne?” he asked finally.

“No, I’m not and he knows it too. He put that announcement in the pa- per without telling me anything about it.”

“You haven’t denied it yet,” Mart said in a loud voice. “Every wie in Hilton still thinks we are engaged.”

Jeanne looked, at him with fury in hei eyes. “I’m tired of all the trou- ble you’ve made. Mart. I think it would be better if we never saw each other again.”

“You might be sorry for saying that,” Mart drawled. “You see, 1 know

too much.” Then he turned on his heel and left

them. When she saw Mart disappear through the revolving door Jeanne turned to Lance, meeting his gaze bravely.

“You see how it is. You and I can never mean anything to each other. We come from different worlds.”

“Don’t put yourself in the same class with him,” Lance said. “Why do you bother with a man like him, Jeanne?”

“We went to school together," Jeanne said in a tired voice. “He’s, ha.-l such bad luck I never had the heart to stop seeing him entirely.”

“You’re too loyal. A chap like that will never do anything but harm you.”

“I know it now,” Jeanne said.

All during dinner she wondered what Lance must be thinking. He could never feel the same about her, she was certain, no matter what he said Mart had finished anything that might have been built out of her friendship with Lance. And when he v/as silent o,n their drive to her room- ing house, she felt that she had lost another friend. Lance had been for- ced to realize that site was after all j|ust Gordon Bartlett’s secretary and a girl he could never remain friendly with.

“I’ll be seeing you again soon,” he said as he left her at the door.

“It was sweet of him to say that,” she thought, “but of course he didn’t n.ean it.”

She said, ‘“l.nen you aren’t goin.g away?”

“Not for a little while,” he said. “Good night, Lance, and thank

you.” “You must never thank me for

anything, Jeanne. Good night, my dear.”

Jeaiune left him and went wearily upstairs to her' room. And there at last she found some peace, for finally af- ter tormented hours of thinking she finally fell asleep.

It is believed to have been" introduced into England as a mili- tary and sporting arm by the Nor- man invaders in 1036, and it is known to have been popular in con- tinental European countries even before that time, having been used for hunting stags, wild boars, hares, and other game. As a soldier’s weapon it was branded as “hateful to God and unfit for Christians.”

But sportsmen of the Middle ages became so fond of their crossbows that they continued to, use them for more than 50 years after the intro- duction of the handgun. Crossbows date back to the Fourth century. Manuscripts of the Tenth century mention the weapon.

The main parts of the crossbow are the arbrier (or stock) and the short, powerful bow mounted on the stock at right angles. At the bow end is a “stirrup” or loop of iron. The bowstring, when at tension, is released by a trigger. For its dis- charge the weapon is held up to the shoulder.

The force of the released bow- string propels a short arrow known as a bolt (or quarrel), a stone, clay ball, or other missile with terrific force. The earlifest types of cross- bows were crude affairs with wood- en bows. These were liable to warp or break. So brossbowmen devised the composite bow made by combin- ing horn and whalebone, or yew and animal tendons. It is thought that the first composite bows, those made by the Saracens, were brought to Europe during the Twelfth century.

Holstein Cattle Native of a Holland District

The native home of Holstein cattle is Holland; or, more correctly, the Netherlands, the provinces of Fries- land, Drenthe, North Holland and South Holland being more repre- sentative of the dairy industry in that country. The name Holstein as applied to this breed of cattle, says a writer in the Cleveland Plain Dealer, is really a misnomer, as it had no application in Holland, but referred to a small province in Ger- many, now pchleswig-Holstein, be- tween the Baltic and North seas, about a hundred miles east of the Holland boundary where black and white Dutch cattle are found.

The breed popularly known as Holstein originated and the ancient Friesland people and may more properly be called Friesian. The ancient Frieslanders belonged to a tribe which occupied the shores of the North sea between the River Ems and the Rhine. They were the oldest inhabitants of Holland and were known as herdsmen, hunters and fishermen. Their history dates as far back as 300 years before Christ. The farmers of North Holland and Friesland are lineal de- scendants of these ancient people, and the multitude of black and white cattle they own, lineal descendants of the cattle owned by their ances- tors.

Until 1871 cattle brought to this country by the early Dutch settlers were known almost universally as Dutch, although as early as 1864 the Department of Agriculture had recognized them as Holstein cattle. In 1885 the breeders and importers, representing two distinct Dutch cat- tle associations in this country, met in joint session and agreed upon the name Holstein-Friesian. i

St. John River St. John river is one of New

Brunswick’s attractions. It rises on the wooded areas of the northern part of the state of Maine and the province of Quebec and pursues a course of some 450 miles to empty, into the Bay of Fundy at the City of- St. John. "The main stream with its numerous tributaries drains an area of some 30,000 square miles. The first white man to set eyes on the river was the intrepid French ex- plorer, Samual de (Champlain. He discovered the harbor at its mouth on June 24, 1604, the day of St. John the Baptist, and being a man of deep religious convictions, Cham- plain named the river in honor of the saint.

“It was only a dream,” Jeanne said stonily. “I didn’t wake up soon en- ough. I thought it W'as real.”

“I think we’d better have another cocktail.”

“Jeanne won’t have another.” It was a man’s voice, interrupting

them rudely. Jeanne looked up, start- led. Mart was bending over the table, a menacing light in his eyes.

“You lie to me,” he went on in a thick voice. “So this is what your love means. This morning you said it was one man and now I find j'ou out with another.” He w’as smiling at her contemptuoulsy. “i guess money is everything, with you.”

Jeanne stared up at Mart, too shocked to answer. Jumping to his feet Lance d«uiauded, “'Who is this man, Jeanne?”

“You don’t have to tell me who he is,” Mart sneered. “I saw his car out front. He’s one ot those rich guys you’ve been running after.

Saskatchewan, Grain Country Saskatchewan constitutes the

heart of Canada’s immense western grain belt. It is not all an open,; treeless prairie; it covers an area' of over 700 mile.? from north to south and approximately 400 miles from^ east to vvest—so large that if a great' giant, with an immense scoop shov- el, were able to transplant the is- land of Great Britain gently upon the surface of Saskatchewan there would be ample room to travel around the island on Saskatchewan soil.

Beginning of Chancery Courts Chancery courts developed in

England in the Fifteenth century. The fees of the common law courts were high and corruption- and op- pression were frequent. The king’s chancellor then offered newer writs on occasion and acted where .the common law court had tailed or was helpless. From this practice grew the courts of chancery and jquity jurisprudence which remedy wrongs which cannot be compensat- ed for in courts of law.
