the lordly past with its wasteful spaciousness.In all its essentials, the feudal system still fashions the life of rural England.There you will find the lord of the manor, with renting feudatories in the form of tenant farmers who hold their lands from him on a tenure more precarious, and therefore, more dependent than that which prevailed in the Middle Ages.Beyond that, you have hundreds of thousands of hereditary toilers\u2014agricultural laborers\u2014with no legal interest or prospect of acquiring an interest in the soil of their native land.Here, also, the change from olden times is for the worse.A year\u2019s notice from a landlord can deprive a tenant of the homestead which his ancestors may have held and cultivated for centuries, and a week\u2019s notice can turn the landless worker from his cottage.No reason need be assigned for the severance.The decision of the feudal chieftains is un«j challengeable.The power is not often exercised, but the fact that it is there and can be put into operation and occasionally is enforced gives the lord of the land, within its seignory, a dominion which the King does not possess.My first recollection of political life is associated with the wholesale eviction of hundreds of tenant farmers in Wales from the lands held by their families for centuries, for no better reason than that they had voted Liberal at a recent election.I also call to mind the case of a widow, who farmed with the aid of an only son.The latter was suspected by the lumflord's gamekeeper of having killed a hare\u2014on his mother\u2019s land\u2014 with a pitchfork.This was a heinous feudal crime.She was given the alternative either of parting with her son or with her farm.The son 'eft for the towns and never returned,\t« The King of England has no such power over his subjects\u2014not even in darkest Africa.This arbitrary power is the law of the land today in Ei,tain, though public opinion » xcrcises a more restraining influence over these feudal excesses than it impost d a generation ago.The laborers flee from this gloomy tyranny to the squalid freedom of the towns and, as a result, rural Britain has become gradually depopulated.It is visibly decaying.But it is characteristic of England that the movement towards reform of the land system does not proceed from any revolt against the .oppressive anachronism but from a hard practical necessity.Fsulalism has broken down.It is no longer supplying the national needs in food and Britain has, in consequence, to buy abroad 400,000,000 pounds worth of food and timber, most of which ought to be raised on her own soil.Before the war, this startling fact did not worry her in the least.British trade was coining money out of its foreign exports, its finance, its shipping, its coql.We supplied the world with goods, with fuel, with carriage, with money\u2014all at a good price.Why, then, should we not.buy cheaply at the counters were we sold dearly?It was a fair and fruitful exchange.Our mediaeval land system was very picturesque.Why modernize this remnant of mediaevalism which distinguished England from the parvenue nations of the world?If it showed signs of crumbling and decay, were these symptoms not, after all, the surest proofs of the antiquity of the structure?Besides, every successful merchant and manufacturer looked forward to the day when he realized prosperity would enable him to acquire one of these seignories and establish himself and his descendants in the halls of the mighty\u2014peradventure with a suitable title.Then came the deluge and Britain is beginning to ask herself whether she can much longer afford to maintain this hoary ruin from a remote but dubious past.Feudalism is not a business proposition, whatever may be its other attractions.It is excellent for sport\u2014no other system could have preserved the glories of the chase in so small and densely populated a country.No doubt it possesses other merits, political and especially social, but it is fatal to any conception of agriculture as a business and Britain, in her distress, is wondering whether she will not be compelled to part with this costly heirloom.We are now entering upon the sixth winter of unexampled depression and, instead of things improving as we have constantly and confidently expected with the indomitable optimism of a successful as well as a courageous people and as we had been assured by high financial and commercial authorities to expect, matters have been getting worse.In my last article, I pointed out the precarious state of our financial and trade position and how, from having been a creditor nation, we have become a debtor nation for the first time in our history.Our national income, taking it at its purchasing value, is substantially less than it was before the war, although our population has increased by a million.We were, and still are the greatest international carriers in the world and large proportion of our income depended upon that business, but our proportion of that business has fallen from half the world\u2019s carrying trade, befor.' the war, to less than one-third today.Since this time three years ago, we have had five governments, each of which has no doubt done its best.They have succeeded in averting acute distress.But the real problem has not yet been tackled.No doubt It is because the business men, who advise governments, were hoping the worst was over and persisted in seeing symptoms of steady improvement and in predicting we should soon return to a prosperous normal.But the complacent are at least showing signs of alarm and are beginning to ask: \u201cWhat has been done to deal with this disquieting situation?\u201d Just as a child in distress turns to its mother, so a nation in straits turns to the land\u2014the mother of us all.The land saved France after the defeat of 1815.It saved her again after the debacle of 1870.It is saving her today after the devastation of 1914-18.The nations of Central Europe are turning to the same inexhaustible source of comfort and sustenance.England has so long been fed from across the seas that she can with difficulty be persuaded to return to the breast that once nourished her strength.But there lies her best chance of recovery.If some of the labor that has been tempted to flee from the land to the delusive glare of the towns could be lured back then Britain could afford to wait in serenity until that ever receding wave of prosperity returns and once more floats her stranded barque.The annual maintenance charge of the unemployed is, one way and another, well over fifty million pounds.The real cost to the community is much heavier, for this prolonged idleness is demoralizing, especially to the young.No one can foretell how much longer the depression will last.So there has been an equal growing in the numbers of those who have been urging that the lull in trade should be utilized to recover lost ground in British agriculture.Half that fifty million pounds, sunk in the land would produce results that would permanently enrich the country.So the cry is swelling.Take the workless off the dole, especially the hundreds of thousands of young men who are supple and adaptable enough to learn a new occupation, and also the scores and maybe hundreds of thousands brought from the rural areas.Turn them on to help developing our greatest and our most undeveloped national asset\u2014 the land, thereby increasing our national wealth instead of dissipating it.When trade returns in its full flood,

POWER DEVELOPMENT\u2014HEMMINOS FALLS you want your money working safely and earning $60 a year on each $1000 you will be interested in this adv.Before you let your dollars go out of your hands and into any security always be sure of these three points: 1.\tThat it will be safe.2.\tThat you will always get your interest or dividends\u2014promptly on time.3.\tThat you can get your money out when you need it.Suppose you invest your money in Southern Canada Power Company 6% Preferred Stock, you feel absolutely sure it is safe\u2014but why ?Well, suppose you were lending money on a house and lot.If you lent $1000 and the property was well worth $1000 you would feel fairly safe\u2014especially if you knew that the person who borrowed your money always paid his bills.But if you lent $1000 on property worth $2000 you would have 2-for-l protection, which is about all you could ask for.Your money is protected When you put your money into Southern Canada Power Company, Limited, you are not lending money to the Company but are buying a partnership in it.Behind each dollar that you put in is $300 worth of property.Surely this is one of the great reasons why Southern Canada Power Company Preferred is a safe investment \u2014 and look what kind of property it is \u2014 huge power plants, as sturdily built into the soil of Quebec as the rocks and hills themselves; power lines, buildings, sub-stations \u2014 solid property\u2014most of it that will last for many years \u2014 some of it for many generations.Each year we put aside more than $100,000 out of earnings to replace machinery and equipment that wear out.Each $100 you invest with us will be spent directly or indirectly for property.This property of yours will be kept in such good condition by money taken out of earnings that next year or a hundred years from now it will be-worth $100 \u2014 or more.And consider the kind of business this property is employed in \u2014 the supplying of what has become virtually a necessity of modem life \u2014 electric energy \u2014 the force that turns factory wheels, lights towns and cities, both streets and homes ; and that cooks food, washes clothes and sweeps homesL This vital product is supplied to one of the soundest and thriftiest and most progressive and promising sections of all Canada.Surely your-money is safe when it is invested in a business like this.' You get your money on time When you are a part-owner of the Company, through the ownership of its preferred stock, you can be very sure indeed that you will always get your dividends, right on time \u2014 Jan.15, April 15, July 15, and Oct.15.But why can you be sure?Suppose again that you had lent $1,000 on a piece of property, and were to receive $60 a year in interest.If the man who owed you the money always made enough to pay all his expenses and always had $60 left over to pay you \u2014 then you could feel very sure you were going to get your money.If instead of having $60, he had always $120\u2014or a 2 for 1 margin of safety, then you would be safe indeed.When you invest in Southern Canada Power Company preferred you have 2-for-l protection.In other words for every dollar the Company agrees to pay you as earned in dividends, it earns, on an average about $2.Surely you would not ask anything more certain than this.And now as to getting your money out \u2014 Southern Canada Power Company will always be pleased to attempt the resale of any of its preferred stock sold through Company employees and to charge $2 per share for this service.So, when you invest your money in Southern Canada Power Company 6% Preferred Stock you can feel sure that it is safe, that you can get it out when you need it and that you will always get your dividends sharp on time.The security you buy is good collateral \u2014 you can borrow on it at your bank just as you can on your house And lot.Keep an eye on your money Your money invested in that security is invested right at home \u2014 where you can keep your eye on it.The men who manage and operate the Company here locally are well known to you.You can always consult with them about the investment.You will find that most of them are stockholders like yourself.If you wish to pay for the security on easy terms, you can buy at the rate of $10 down and $10 per month per share.As might be expected, there has never been enough of this security offered to go around.This year the amount available is exactly the amount which was bought last year in 24 hours.It seems unlikely that this year\u2019s supply will last even that long.If you wish to become a partner in the Company or to add to your holdings, we suggest that you reserve vours right now, today, from one of our employees, Orcfers will be accepted only from customers or members of their immediate families \u2014 not more than 10 shares will be sold to any one purchaser.Southern Canada Power Company, Limited FÂCETOf SHERBROOKE DAlLt RECORD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1925.SPORTING NEWS SENATORS AND PIRATES ARE WELL MATCHED If Either Club Is to Be Given Edge, Expert Opinion Concedes It to Washington pn Strength of Superior Experience and Defensive Steadiness.| meet a crisis with a sensational bit 'of batting or fielding.It was chiefly the startling work jof this quartet which carried the I Senators to the top last year.| Washington seems to have its ; heaviest advantage in the battery !

that was the day we got ten inches, and it was ten good, solid inches on the level.I have good reason to remember that day.My father had some sheep in a back pasture, to reach which we had to go through a piece of woods for nearly a mile.The -now began to fall on the 17th about 11 o\u2019clock in the forenoon, and my father started, after dinner, to fix up some sort of a shelter for the sheep in the pasture.No one had any idea, cold and eccentric as the season was, that we would have snow to amount to an;,thing at that time of year.I remember father, as he went out of the door, turning to my mother and saying in a jocular way: \u201c \u2018If I\u2019m not back in hour, mother, call the neighbors and start them after me.June is a bad month to get buried in the snow, especially when it gets to be so near the Fourth of July.\u2019 \u201cThe snow increased in fury, and by night it had drifted so that the roads were almost impassable, but even then, and when it grew dark, none of the family felt uneasy about father.The weather had grown intensely cold.When night set in, however, and there were still no signs of father's return, mother sent me to alarm the neighbors and tell them that we believed father had been lost in the snow.In spite of the severity of the night all the neighbors that could be reached turned out and searched the woods all night, but no sign of th= missing man could be found.The search was kept up ail the next day and the next night without finding any trace of him, except that he had reached the pasture and built a shelter of boughs in one corner of the lot, under which the sheep were huddled.On the forenoon of the third day they found father half buried in the snow a mile from the pasture, in almost the opposite direction from home.He was dead.He had evidently become lost in the blinding storm and had wandered about until he succumbed to fatigue and exposure.It seems a most im- |i|i niim ALiENIST SAYS HARRY THAW IS!
