Empires Defeat Huntingdon 3-0\u2014Academy Boys Defeat Valleyfield Juniors 6-0 GOOD HOCKEY PLAYED Athelstan Boys Play Initial Hockey Match in Local Arena Saturday night the Huntingdon Arena was again crowded to witness the two games of hockey arranged between the Empires of Valleyfield vs.Huntingdon Senior and Hunting- don Academy.The games were remarkable good considering the condition of the ice.One would hardly believe the ice would not be at its best by this date in January, but only the weatherman is to blame.The Rink Assn.is well paid by the hockey club for the use of the rink, and when hockey is so much enjoyed by so many people.it would be but reasonable of the Rink Association to save the ice for hockey matches in place of having it used up on Saturday afternoon, if the day is mild.The first match was between the Empires\u2019 augmented team from the K.of C.aggregation vs.Huntingdon.It was a strenuous game for both sides, but throughout its entirety it waged in favour of the visitors.The Valleyfield boys were ever aggressive and though at times they appeared rough, they were fairly well balanced by members of the local team.Penalties were frequently handed out, but all for very short periods.In the second period Tody Smith scored the first goal for the Empires, the puck striking the side of Hunter's pads and glancing in to the nets.The second and final score of the period was made by Philbin when a scramble took place in front of the nets, and before the goal tender got to his feet the puck was pushed in, The third period opened up with remarkable briskness considering the ice condition.Tody Smith again found the nets on a long shot making the game end 3-0 for the visitors.The cheering for both teams was maintained throughout the match, which indicates the enjoyment taken out of the game.The line-ups were: Empires\u2014Goal, McCualg; defence, G.Philbin, A.Tessier; centre, St.Michael; wing, T.Smith, C.Greene.Huntingdon\u2014Goal, Hunter; defence, W.Tedstone, G.Ferry, E.Cappiello, Robert; centre, Stanton Smaill, Chambers, E.Tedstone, C.Tedstone, Mason, Beaudin.Valleyfield subs\u2014Primeau, Hugent, Legros and S.Cooke.Referee\u2014Mr.Wilfrid Bolduc.The Academy Team Wins The second game, which was between the Valleyfield Juniors and the Huntingdon Academy \u201cRed and Blacks\u201d was a much more exciting game of hockey to watch than its predecessor.In the first place the visitors were a much older set of boys and were larger but had not the alacrity of the \u201cRed and Blacks.\u201d Many a good laugh was enjoyed by the spectators when the Academy boys would charge the Valleyfield goal keeper with the puck as though they were shots from a machine gun.Invariably when the charges were made in this manner a goal was eventually netted.Jackie Kirby was the champion goal getter of the evening, and he was well supported on the front line by Kenny, Younger-Lewis, MacPherson and Chambers.The first period saw Kirby net one lone goal; in the second period Kenny scored first, followed by another by Kirby.In the third period three goals were made making the game end 6 to 0.The Valleyfield team was composed of: Barker, goal; Deschambault and White, defence; Anderson, Cooke, Whalley and McBride on wings; Grace, centre; K.Anderson and Primeau, subs.The Academy team was: Forbes McGill, goal; Proudfoot, Todd, Youn- er-Lewis, and Cahill, defence; Kirby, centre; Kenny, Daniels, MacPherson and Chambers, wings.The game was refereed by W.C.Tedstone.Athelstan Plays Initial Hockey Game in Huntingdon.,\u2014 Wednesday night the Athelstan hockey team played a return game with the Huntingdon boys in the local arena.This is the first year for the Athelston boys to have a team and they show the makings of a first class team.It will likely take a few years for this team to become fully developed, and this can only be anticipated if they are able to have a rink in future years as they are enjoying this year.The score, 8 to 3 may appear a little one-sided, but apart from that, the spectators report the game in a very favourable manner.The teams were: Athelstan\u2014Goal, M.Laberge; defence, OC.Elder, Armand Robert; centre, Lyle Elder; wing, Baird, W.Rowat; centre, Archie Rowat; wing, A.Archie Hampson; Woodside.Huntingdon\u2014Goal, Hunter; defence, Eddie Cappiello, W.Tedstone, G.Ferry; centre, C.Laberge: wing.E.Tedstone, C.Tedstone; centre, J.Chambers; wing, W.Mason, Beau din.- Referee: Wilfrid Bolduc.Jones has a much richer voice.\u201d *T can't think why they make so much fuss of Miss Smith's

Sh AT A Need in Dundee, Howick and Franklin Dundee, Howick and Franklin are all rural centers and communities where it is advisable and essential that some provision be made for the entertaining of its young people, otherwise they might become uninterested in sport, and become old people before they should.Howick is not so bad off as is Dundee and Franklin, for, Howick has a curling rink, has the English river, and is a village of some size, but in this respect the other two communities are lacking.Dundee has a Consolidated School and it is largely attended.It is ideally located in the township and the J.J.Praser farm land should be acquired, and on it build an open air skating rink.Were such a rink made possible the children could use it at the noon hour, at recess time, and on Saturday afternoons, etc.The rink could easily be electrically illuminated and it would provide a sport for the older boys and girls in the community.What applies to Dundee is equally as applicable to Franklin and Howick.Franklin is so located that it would become a very popular meeting place for people west, south, east and north.The population in this locality is possibly more thickly settled than in any other township of the county.Everybody knows Howick and it is not necessary to stipulate any specific advantages or reason why Howick ought to have a rink.Howick has a model school, and as an educational center it will grow and become 8 center for more children than it has ever been in the past.Some of the adults may belittle this expression in favour of open air rinks, by saying it is better for the children to go skating on the fields.But, lo and behold where is there a field of ice this winter.The creeks are even dry and as a result some boys and girls will grow up not knowing what sporting pleasures our Canadian winter makes possible through ice.In a little village in Nova Scotia a move was made last year at this time to raise funds for a skating rink for this year.The support was generous locally, and many men who had wandered off into distant fields sent contributions.Who knows but that if Dundee, Franklin and Howick young people organize themselves into associations with this thought in mind what support they may receive.Suppose Dundee had an open air skating rink, how long would it be until the men and women of Dundee would say, well we are going to have a curling rink the same as the farmers of Riverfield and Aubrey.Sure, Dundee farmers can have a curling club and it will be a very simple matter for the people of Dundee to play games of curling in Huntingdon, and for Huntingdonians to curl in Dundee, as the train service is ideal.Before we wander off in curling let us get established on a sound foundation and get finances subscribed for skating rinks.The people of Athelstan got together early in the season and have made an open air rink.It is well patronized and is a distinct asset to that village.If the Womens Institutes wish to promote something for the good of these respective communities, they are groups who have strength and moral support at their back upon which cash can readily be subscribed.If the Institutes of these three centers will take up the gavel for this cause in each center, call the citizens together.get local subscriptions and then solicit from old boys of that respective community we feel certain that next year skating rinks will be found in Dundee and Howick, as well as in Huntingdon, Athelstan, Ormstown and Hemmingford.Marketing Eating Apples In the merchandising of goods today one cannot help but think of the changes that have transpired in late years.With the changed form of merchandising the people of today may buy less, or rather eat less, but .it is sold in a more sanitary and inviting manner for more money.Let us just turn our thoughts to one product that is made in Huntingdon.and its namesake has been made here since the 60's\u2014Cheese.The big pink cheese was the only form of cheese we ever thought of and that was not so very many years ago.Then came the small cheddar, and it was a cheese of quality that met with general approval.Next came the kraft type of cheeses.They did not, nor do they yet measure up to the perfection that they might be, but what made them so popular?I think the real answer is that it was a convenient size of a cheese to handle in package form.It was covered with foil and looked clean.It could be cut off in nice clean pieces without falling apart, and then besides the ends could not be nibbled off by the store clerks.The next big move, was made by our local cheese company known today through the Dominion of Canada for its manufacture of fancy cheeses.The fancy cheeses are made up under most sanitary conditions, and besides, every piece is foil wrapped in a small package and is retailed out to the customers in that form.Besides the Baumert cheese being to the taste of the most fastidious and in so many forms, these cheeses are today being used by thousands of people who never thought of eating a pound of cheese from one end of the year to the other, in the old form.Through creating this demand for cheese, the farmer gets an increased outlet for his milk.Now, if this is so of the cheese business, why can it not be likewise applied to the eating apples, and more especially to the McIntosh Red, Wealthy and Pameuse varieties.This county is fast becoming known as an apple growing district, and one where high quality eating apples are grown.With the establishing of graders at Franklin, Havelock and Hem- mingford the farmers in that locality soon found the benefit to be derived through grading apples and marketing them according to grade.The barrel pack has been discarded and has yielded place to the bushel box and hamper.The apple grower 50 discovered that many people would buy a hamper of apples at a time but would not consider a barrel and they have, therefore, become regular apple eaters.We all know how the orange growers have advocated the eating of oranges for health, whether it be for low or high blood pressure, yet the old saying of \u201can apple a day keeps the doctor away\u201d is not put into practise as might be advisable.How is it that when you call upon a man in his office in Montreal he invariably offers you a cigar, whereas an apples packed in this manner, well wrapped and labelled correctly and attractively it is safe to say that in a very few years apples would quickly find @ piace in the desk drawer of many a business man or office girl.Some of our apple growers may think this is all apple sauce, but just last Thursday one business man in Montreal informed me that the apples he gave out to employees, friends calling or ate himself represented $2.00 per week, or if you wish to flgure that out for the year, taking into the months when apples would not be marketed in this form, he would spend $75.Is there a man in the District of Beauharnois who spends $75 on eating apples for his own use per annum?Then, why p a convenient pack for the city buyer who will buy for his office use, apartment, flat or home.This is the time of year to make an investigation or survey on the prospects of marketing apples in this manner.A Bid to Industrial For Beauharnois Throughout all time the Province of Quebec has never received 50 much favourable advertising, and broadcast so much propaganda inviting industry to the province as has been the case during the past year and a half.The International Power and Paper Co, Shawinigan Water and Power and now the Besuharnois Power Corporation are largely accountable for the extensive work.The people in this District are most in- | i k Corporation.This company, like the two other power corporations have already done considerable advertising in newspapers and magasines.To follow up this work Beauhernois Power Corporation have now compiled The book tells of our ideal location, what Beauharnois offers, our

Specially Written for The Huntingdon Gleaner News Bits And Now, A Church Cabaret Church girls transformed into a beauty chorus of gay dancers\u2014church socials injected with 100 per cent life and laughter and run on the lines of the most up-to-date Continental cabaret show, with an erstwhile sober congregation magically forming an applauding audience! Even the forty-second cousins of Mrs.Grundy are bound to hold up their hands and say \u201cImpossible!\u201d But that is without reckoning with the essentially modern schemes of the Rev.H.G.Wilks, Vicar of Upperthrong, England, who considers the average \u201csocial\u201d notorious for everything but sociability and \"about as thrilling as the final demand note for Income Tax.\" Boldly defiant of par- {sh frowns and frenzies, Mr.Wilks has planned a cabaret, with parish girls as the beauty chorus.No more dreary tea-meetings for Upperthrong; no more weary twiddling with fingers, and talking over others\u2019 misfortunes.\u201cOn the Sunday,\u201d he explained, \u201csome of our Cabaret Girls will be singing \u2018Brief life is here our portion\u2019; the following day they will be shrieking to a delighted audience, \u2018Happy days are here again.\u201d Earn Money in Jail Convicts at the gaol at Nottingham, England, are being paid for working in the various \u201cshops.\u201d The maximum wage is 36c a week.Part of this has to be saved, but the remainder may be spent on cigarettes, cake, jam.newspapers, and other articles allowed by the prison governor.Since the experiment began the output of work has increased seven times.It is hoped by the scheme to lessen the cost of prison upkeep, to teach the convicts a trade, and to provide them with money to live on while waiting for a job after their release.Dog Has His Own Vacation Danger.a pet bulldog whose owner established a trust fund for him at a Chicago bank is now in Hot Springs, Ark., for a winter vacation, in the profits of some of the securities placed with the banking institution in his behalf.He went alone in a crate.His owner, a Chicago business man who could not arrange his own affairs for a winter vacation, stayed at home.World's Champion Borrower As a general rule, book publishers in this country depend mainly on lending libraries for their sales.In Denmark publishers are taking more drastic steps.One firm there is trying to prevent libraries from lending its books unless they pay double the ordinary price for them.Here, as conditions are at the moment, the libraries are the publishers\u2019 best friends.There are very few people who want to buy books, and large numbers who want to borrow them.The greatest book-borrower in history, however, lived at a time when people who wanted books had usually to buy them.He was the Duke of Somerset, who was Lord Protector in the reign of Edward VI.He borrowed the whole of the books in the London Guildhall Library, loading them on to carts and taking them away to read at his leisure.And he never returned a single one.Three years ago a manuscript belonging to this collection was found.Mrs.Reason's Reason Reasonable It all happened in Los Angeles, California, so sald Lowell Thomas, who precedes Amos 'n Andy every night on the radio.There were reasons galore, half a dozen or more, in the drama of this divorce, when a reason-filed plea brought a speedy decree from a reasonable judge, perforce.Mrs.Jean Reason sald, with a toss of her head.\u201cRex G.Reason stayed out all night and no reason in fact, did he give for his act.when returning in broad daylight.\u201d When the trial was done Mrs.Reason had won precious {freedom and monthly fee, and two Reasons quite small, seemingly pleased with it all, were consigned to her custody.Why Cats Claw Trees Everybody has seen common cats arch their backs and claw at the bark of a tree.This practice is commonly described as \u201csharpening the claws.\u201d Wild cats are also addicted to this practice.In Asia many trees were worn smooth by the great number of cheetahs or hunting leopards which go there to claw the bark.Traps are set at such trees to catch the animals.Dr.O.N.de Weerdt, of Beloit College, in an article in Science, states that the notion that cats claw the bark of trees to sharpen their claws is erroneous.It is equally erroneous to suppose that they go through these manoeuvres in order to stretch and exercise certain muscles.He observed split claws stuck in the bark and the remains of several other claws lying on the ground near a tree where his pet cat made a practice of \u201csharpening its claws.\u201d \u201cIt seems,\u201d Dr.de Weerdt explains, \u201cthat cats shed their claws at intervals, just as deer shed their antlers, and clawing the bark of trees is the means adopted to rid themselves of their old claws which have become loose.\" Killed All Over Home Brew Because her husband insisted on sampling a batch of home-brew which had been made for a special occasion, Mrs.Anna Mars, 54, of Wheeling, West Virginia, broke the bottles over the furniture in their home.The husband, John Mars, a painter fled.Returning an hour later, Mars found his wife dead on the glass-littered floor, her face and the upper part of her body cut in several places.She had bled to death.Police expressed the belief that Mrs.Mars collapsed from excitement of the quarrel and was cut by falling on the broken glass.EET Passwater and Firewater.Yo! Ho! Ho! And 42 bottles of rum.Out of all the hush-hush of the past week, there has emerged the story of how Mrs.Marj.Passwater of Philadel phia disposed of her husband's firewater.Marj.a member of a well-known family, arrived home unexpectedly from Europe to find her husband and a companion among 42 quarts.Mrs.Passwater called police and asked that they take the 42 fancy labelled bottles away, by raiding her suite in a fashionable Germantown apartment house.In the meantime, her husband, had been called to Boston.Consequently, they arrested her on a charge of illegal possession.She Really Wants no Fuss Mrs.Mary Baptist, of Newark, N.J., who died November 19, had definite ideas about how she wanted to be buried.Her will, filed, contained the paragraph: \u201cBury me plain, no flowers, no fuss.I did not get it in life; why at my death?I don't want even a ring on my finger.I won't need it where I'm going.\u201d Child on Air Trip An 8-year-old miss, accompanied only by her dolly, arrived there by train and then departed from the Kansas City airport as a passenger for California aboard a Western Air Express plane.The child is on her way fer an extended visit with her mother Los Angsies, ; : TE Solution of a Mystery While a Texan was searching for a lost silver mine in Rio Grande County, Texas, he found the mouth of what appeared to be a large cave, which, upon investigation, he found to be several acres in extent.The floor was heaped with the bones of what appeared to have been an immense number of longhorn cattle.When he reported his discovery the mystery surrounding the disappearance of 5,000 longhorn cattle in the winter of 1812 was believed to have been solved.On the night that the vast herd disappeared the cowboys bedded them down, but during the night a blizzard came up which drove the herd to shelter.The cowboys never saw them again.It is belleved that the herd, driven blindly through the storm, crowded into the cave where it was warm.Once inside, the snow drifted over the opening, sealing them in the cave, where they starved.Dead Hawk Foretells War The mummified hawk, belleved to be 4000 years old, which is stated by its owner to drip a liquid resembling blood from its breast before the outbreak of wars, is the property of W.J.A.Grant, of Cul- lompton, Devonshire.Mr.Grant, who is 80 and an experienced traveller, informed an interviewer.\u201cAbout 1894 I met in Egypt a Frenchman who gave me what he described as the rubbish from excavated graves.Among this was the hawk, which is greyish- brown.Some years later I saw a liquid like blood dripping from its breast.A few weeks later the Boer War was declared, and the dripping continued until Lord Roberts entered Pretoria.A few weeks before August, 1914, the dripping started again, and continued until six weeks before the Armistice.When the dripping stopped I told my friends laughingly that the war would be over in a few weeks.It was.Of course, I do not believe it is blood, but I have never had it tested.I think it is due to the temperature acting on the chemicals used by the Egyptians when the bird was mummified.\u201d The Mechanical Doctor Idea The latest craze in Paris is the treatment of patients by means of gramophone records.The records, made by an artist with just the right kind of soothing bedside voice, suggests to the patient that every second he is getting better and better.The inventor is Dr.Vachet, who believes strongly in the healing power of suggestion.He has prepared a series of records suitable for all kinds of ailments.Sometimes the records contain music that is felt to be particularly suitable.There is a proposal to extend the idea by making records containing talks on the symptoms and cure of all kinds of simple but common illnesses.The idea is that every household should possess a library to which its members can refer when they are feeling ill.but rather too hard up to afford a doctor.Lamp Black\u2014Staff of Life The most wonderful substance in the world is carbon.Soot, lamp black, and pencil leads are all forms of carbon\u2014and so is the diamond.The carbon atom possesses one remarkable quality.It enables other atoms to combine into huge groups or families from which all kinds of substances are made.By themselves the atoms of oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen can produce nothing very startling, but add carbon and their combinations become amazing, giving rise to such substances as petrol, oll, medicines, bread and meat.If it were not for carbon, life could never have existed upon this or any other world.All kinds of living things\u2014fish, flesh, fruit, and fowl\u2014owe their existence to the carbon atom.No one knows why this should be so, for the carbon atom differs from others only in having one electron more or less than they.But it is quite certain that it is the foun- dation-stone of all life.Tin Holds up Robbery Some quiet burglars raided a Chinese store in a village near Balaclava, Jamaica, and no doubt would have succeeded in their robbery, if it were not for a plece of tin.They set to work to drill through to the catch on the window just at the head of the bed where the Chinaman was sleeping, when a piece of tin, which the Chinaman had nailed inside to keep the latch in place, stopped the point of the drill.Not only did it do this, but it set up such a racket as the point of the tool turned against it, that the occupants of the room were awakened.The robbers fled and the Chinaman is protecting all his windows by a piece of tin.Dead Man Committed Murder Murder was committed by a dead man at Prague, Czechoslovakia, when a police inspector and a doctor called to investigate a suicide.They bent down to turn the body over, which apparently caused a rigor mortis contraction of the muscles of the hand and, the finger, being still on the trigger, the pistol went off, and the inspector fell dead, shot through the heart.Tired of Hearing Old Gag Guess what Mrs.Mary Christmas of Racine, A new home?Or a sewing machine?The answer to these and other questions is \u201cno,\u201d because all she wants is that some folks\u2019 heads would get a few new ideas.There are lots of things she\u2019s tired of hearing, she says.One of them is \u201cthe same to you\" when she gives her name to a store clerk in buying goods on credit.Another is when someone telephones to inquire abcut the five little Christmases, and asks: \u201cHow's the Christmas tree?\u201d TE, Hotels For Hikers A chain of modest hotels stretching across England and designed to take care of vacation hikers is being organized at Liverpool.Plans call for spacing the hotels about one day's walk apart.These places will offer @æcommodation to hiteh hikers and walkers, similar to the tourist camp facilities of America.Lodgings will cost 25 cents a person, and cooking facilities, available to all guests, will be provided.The route of the hostelries will be laid out to provide for walking tours of England lasting from three days to several weeks, Novel Letter-carrier A note thrust into a crevice of a potato was found in a consignment received by a wholesale fruiterer of

Put down that lantern, but don\u2019t blow it out.There are still plenty of honest men in the world, but when it comes to honest women! How those daughters of Eve can cribi This was revealed by an honesty test given to 50 people recently.The test was prompted by the work of a v New York psychologist, who, by a > de questionnaire, established that children are inherently dishonest.A somewhat similar test given to 25 women now establishes that children haven't cornered the market on dishonesty.Give & grownup enough opportunity and he'll do a little fibbing himself.For grownups are, the test shows, just 50 per cent dishonest.But the amazing figure is that while men slip only nine times in 100 opportunities, the women run as high as 42 in the 100.The Crux of the Test The honesty test was conducted by means of 50 questionnaires, each bearing the same list of ten questions.The answers to the questions were isp printed at the foot of the sheet.& The crux of the test lay in the fact that six of the ten answers at the foot of the sheet were wrong.Yet many persons copied these catch answers from the bottom, despite the preliminary warning: \u201cThe answers in this test are printed below, but must not be referred to until you have completed the test.Do not look at them now and do not be ashamed to leave blank any question you cannot answer in your own knowledge.\u201d The first question in the list was: \u201cWho rode at night to rouse the minute men?\u201d The answer to this simple question was correctly printed at the foot.Every man knew Paul Revere.Four women showed that they were primarily honest.They didn't know of Paul Revere and they left a blank.No Catch in No.2 Neither was there any caich to question No.2.The correct answer, \u201cBarbara Fritchie\u201d was printed at the foot in the return for \u201cWho hung out her country\u2019s flag in the face of the enemy?\u201d Of the women 19 gave \u201cBarbara Fritchie,\u201d spelling it exactly as in the answer.One spelled it \u201cFreitchie\u2019 and three spelled it \u201cFrietchie,\u201d show- that they had not copied from the foot.One woman did not know, and one\u2014not an American\u2014wrote \u201cJuana de Arco\u201d\u2014obviously Joan of Arc.Of the men every one spelled it \u201cFritchie\u201d but two.These two decided that the heroine of Fredericktown was Betsy Ross.The third question was the first one with a catch.Having established people\u2019s trust in the answers it was decided to start the double cross with the answer to \u201cWho invented the telescope of the earliest type?\u201d Six women answered \u201cGallleo\u201d (with varied spellings) and all the rest left a blank.Four men also picked on Galileo, one answered \u201csome Italian,\u201d and the others failed to an- wer, This was all in spite of the fact that the answer given at the foot ascribed the invention of this instrument (whose inventor is unknown) to \u201cBenvenuto Cellinni,\u201d spelled on the test as printed here.Costa Rica an Island Thus far every oie was staying pretty honest.The next question: \u201cWho discovered Tasmania,\u201d was given with its correct answer: \u201cTasman.\u201d Seven women, who may or may not have peeked, gave this reply.The rest left blanks.Only two men wrote the me of Tasman and the other 23 *.Whonest souls left a vacant space.The next question either proves that more than half the people of the United States believe Costa Rica to be an island or else they cheated.The question: \u201cIs Costa Rica an island or on the mainland?\u201d was answered at the foot with \u201cAn island.\u201d On this question five women firmly gave the correct answer: \u201cOn the mainland\u201d; four admitted they did- n't know and 31 said it was an island.Of the men, 12 put it on the mainland, two failed to answer and 11 said it was an island.Later these en declared so staunchly that they ally did believe it was an island that a separate quiz was conducted.Ten persons were asked the question without any answer being hinted.Eight of the ten put it correctly on the mainland and the other two admitted they didn't know, So there is a strong suspicion that both men and women peeked at the answer to this one.\u201cWho wrote \u2018Beowulf\u2019?\u201d This question started women on the ylownward path.The answer given ab the foot of the page was \u201cAdam Bede.\u201d Seven women fell into the trap and soberly wrote in \u201cAdam Bede.\u201d Not one man cheated on this question.All left it blank but one, who took a flyer and guessed \u201cSir Walter Scott.But if the women cheated more, they showed better knowledge.For * four women answered correctly The next question was answered correctly to keep up the trust in the doctored answers.\u201cWhere i5 Saskatoon?\u201d was answered \u201cin Saskatchewan, Canada.\u201d Thirteen women gave this reply and 12 left a blank.Of the men, only eight left a blank, 13 answered correctly, one wrote \u201cIn Saskatich,\u201d and three more put \u201cAlaska.\u201d From this point on the women began a wild orgy of cribbing.Many of the blanks were still half empty and the gentler sex decided to make some sort of showing.Besides, they were getting down on the list near to the printed answers.It was easier to glance at them.Women Start Cribbing \u201cWhere do we get the quotation, \u2018In the fire of spring the winter garment of repentance fling'?\" : The printed answer to this was \u201cIn Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream.\u201d And 14 women took a peek at the reply column and wrote, accordingly, that Shakespeare coined Omar's lines.The men, on the contrary, continued to be honest, even if it hurt.One wrote, \u201cI don't know,\u201d 22 left a blank and two erudite souls knew their quatrians well enough to answer, Khayyam's \u201cRubaiyat.\u201d\u201d Not one man cheated.The women continued to go from bad to worse in No.9, \u201cWho was Moll Flanders?\u201d Fifteen of the 25 peeked down at the answer list, where they were given the somewhat startling information that Daniel Defoe's literary bel- dame was \u201ca revolutionary heroine.\u201d And they wrote accordingly.The ot- Liers stayed honest.Men Stay Honest With somewhat startling monotony the men refused to cheat and left a blank, all with the exception of one man, who penciled a comment about Moll that was not polite, but which showed he knew about her piquant characteristics.The final question brought more \u201cfudging\u201d by the women and even a couple of men slipped.The printed list stated wrongly that Julius Caesar landed in Britain in 55 A.D.The canny women did a little camouflaging, but they peeked all the same.Some wrote \u201c56 A.D.\u2019 some wrote \u201cFirst century,\u201d and one wrote \u201c55 A.D.\u201d Thirteen were honest and left a blank and one woman who had \u201c50 B.C.\u201d (nearly correct) crossed out the B.C.and made it A.D.Of the men 21 left a blank, two gave the A.D.date, one wrote \u201cSome time B.C.\u201d and one answered \u201c33 B.C.\u201d Incidentally, no one got the correct answer of 55 B.C.Women Are Honest Cheats So there's your list.With a total of 150 chances to cheat, the women did a bit of sly fudging 62 times.With the same opportunity of 150 catches the men slipped only 13 times.But later came this consolation.The men who cheated, being charged with it, grew indignant, blustered a little and stuck to their guns by declaring that they really believed Costa Rica to be an island, or that they really believed Caesar landed in 55 A.D.On the other hand, the women took it all much more aptly.Accused of | being dishonest they paused a little, then laughed, and admitted that they had copied even questions that did- n't have catch answers.The gencral outlook among the take \u201cjust a tiny peek at the answers,\u201d and that if men don't do the same they're \u201cjust too dumb to live.\u201d St.Andrew's Links Celebrity Tells of Playing Golf Fifty Years Ago The famous gold links at St.Andrew's, Scotland, home of \u201cYe Royal and Ancient\u201d game, belong to the local ratepayers who are the hereditary owners.Every ratepayer in St.Andrew's has the freedom of the links, and at certain times in the day and year the local chimney sweep takes precedence over the most urgent visiting millionaire.Some of the best golf at St.Andrew's is often played by the ratepayers, which is not surprising seeing that they have been practicing their strokes since the sixteenth century.A celebrity, W.T.Linskill, founder of Cambridge University Golf Club, by the way, knows more about St.Andrew\u2019s than all the rest of the natives put together.\u201cGolf to-day,\u201d

GRANT FLEMING, LONGEVITY The child born today may be expected to live for several more years than the child born fifty years ago.The average span of life has been considerably lengthened.This has been brought about chiefly by better care of infants, by a notable reduction in the diarrhoeas of young children which, formerly, took such a heavy toll, and by the control of such diseases as smallpox, typhoid fever and diphtheria.We have now available to control disease measures which were unknown a comparatively few years ago.People, in general, are now better informed as to how to live in order to keep well.Mothers have come to rely upon their intelligence rather than their instinct in caring for their children.A much higher percentage of people now reach the age of fifty than did formerly, but once that age is reached, the expectation of life is not greater than it was during the past century.The reason for this is that the undesirable conditions which have been overcome were those which chiefly affected the young; little has yet been done which would directly benefit the adult.It is quite right to do all that has been done and even more for the child, but if health is to be maintained throughout life, it must not be neglected after childhood has passed.Hemmingford Mr.Stephen Hadley's herd of Ayr- shires have passed their eighth successive tuberculin test.W.J.Johnston

industrial health services, the vast majority of adults do not receive any systematic health supervision once they have left school.The result is that abnormal conditions pass unnoticed until actual disease develops.The adult is apt to forget that, with advancing years and altered manner of living, his habits must be somewhat modified if he is to retain the health and vigour of earlier lite.If the adult is to have health, if he or she is to have more healthy years of life, then time must be taken to give to the body the care it requires.The busy man or woman, for exam: ple, must take time from work and other activities to secure the rest and exercise required by the body.The ideal to strive for is not so much a longer life.but health throughout life.Health is worth having because it makes for happiness throughout a life of greater usefulness.To the adult who desires to increase the expectation of years of health, we can say\u2014moderation in all things is essential, and above all, in food An interest in life must be maintained, whether it is in work or in play.Questions concerning Health, addressed to the Canadian Medical Association, 184 College Street, Toronto, will be

Mr.and Mrs.John Goodfellow.It was a surprise party for them, sponsored by Messrs.James Hughes, Burton Rankin and William Ruddock, in honor of the twenty-fifth anniversary of their marriage.Mrs.Goodfellow had been lured to spend the day with her mother, Mrs.John McLean, who had not been well for a few days.Mr.Goodfellow was absent all afternoon, and, on their return home, about 8.30 they were surprised to find house and barns ablaze with lights, and the whole countryside collected there to welcome them, and to wish them many happy returns of the day.Rooms had been cleared of furniture and musicians with their violins were in evidence.Soon everything was in readiness and the first dance was called with Mr.and Mrs.Goodfellow as the leading couple.With them in the set were Mr.Arthur Rankin and Mrs.Ferns, Mr.and Mrs.Ward Mc- Lean, Mr.and Mrs.William Ruddock.It may be said with all sincerity that no dance of the evening was carried through with as much grace and accuracy as was that one.As it came toward the hour of midnight, there was a pause in all the activities, when Mr.and Mrs.Goodfellow were led to seats at the end of the dining-room, and a table holding a silver tea service and some gold coins was placed before them.Mr.Willlam Ruddock, in his pleasant manner, addressed the erst-while bride and groom and the friends assembled.He said that, looking back, twenty-five years seems but a short time, but when one looks ahead, it is very different.He eulogized Mr.and Mrs.Goodfellow and their family, as being splendid friends and neighbors, and finally asked them to accept, as a token of their esteem, the gifts which they were offering.Mr.Goodfellow replied, thanking one and all, and saying that he appreciated very much this kindness, while he did not feel that they deserved it.Mrs.Goodfellow also expressed her thanks and asked all present to come again, and share with them a cup of tea from her new silver tea pot.Mr.Ruddock called on others of the party to say a few words, among them being Mrs.Van Vliet, Mrs.Gentle, Messrs.Austin Kelly, Ward McLean, Willlam Good- fellow, Arthur McClatchie, 8.Rem- ber, Burton Rankin and a few others.These all expressed their pleasure in being present, and wished Mr.and Mrs.Goodfellow many happy years to come, even to celebrating their golden wedding, which it is not given to very many couples to do.Refreshments were then served, an abundance of sandwiches and cakes having been supplied by the guests, also tea and coffee.The guests numbered around one hundred and seventy-five.After supper dancing was again on the programme for a few hours.There were several violinists, who one and all, furnished excellent music.Among them were noted Messrs.Murphy, Elliott, Rember, Graham, Stanley Rud- dock and Charlie Brown.Friday was also the thirty-seventh anniversary of the marriage of Mr.and Mrs.William Goodfellow, of Huntingdon.The death occurred on Saturday at Morin Heights, Que., of Mrs.Robert McBride, a native of Dewittville, and the greater part of whose life was spent in or near Dewittville.Mrs.McBride was formerly Miss Theresa Gardiner, and she was born on the same place, but not in the same house, where for many years past she has spent her summers.À very quiet, kindly woman, her familiar figure will be missed by her many friends in Dewittville.Several from here attended the funeral in Ormstown, on Monday morning.She leaves to mourn her loss, one son, Mr.Chester McBride, of Westmount; one daughter, Mrs.McConnell of Morin Heights, Que.; and one brother, Mr.Thomas Gardiner of Huntingdon.To these the people of Dewittville extend sympathy.Miss Jane McNaughton suffered a stroke of paralysis on Wednesday, then on Friday evening there was another, after which she

their religion was a mockery and their virtue was as empty as a drum.As for himself, he heeded no restraints except those laid down by his honorable father\u2019s teachings and respected nothing but his own desires.When BABIES are Upset ABY ills and ailments seem twice as serious at night.A sudden c may mean colic.Or a sudden atta of diarrhea.How would you meet this emergency\u2014tonight?Have youa bottle of Castoria ready?For the protection of your wee one\u2014for your own peace of mind\u2014 keep this old, reliable preparation always on hand.But don\u2019t keep it just for emergencies;

The only lasting friendships a man made were the ones of his youth.He and Sam must see a lot of each other, begun- ning right now.And how was the old was great to touch his flesh again.How was he behaving himself?Not so good.maybe, from what the papers said, but why shouldn't a guy have as much fun as he could afford?And how was his tennis game?.\u2018\u2019Too bad to let that drop.Sam had the makings of a champ in him and the chances were he'd have been on the Davis Cup team if he'd followed the game up.That back-hand of his put blisters on a ball and he had the fighting heart, too.Remember that team match with Princeton?Some match.wasn't it?Kicker would tell \u2018the strabismic world it was a match.j And Sam had pulled it out of the fire for old Eastern.Now Sam was a big man of affairs! | Rich! Living like a potentate! Hot i ziggity! That certainly was fine.| Kicker ran an admiring gaze over | the treasures of Sam's home.and | whistled.\u201cWhat a room to throw a go-to- | het party.\u201d he exclaimed.\u201cSound | proof and too high to jump off.Say! \u2018I know a bunch of step-ins that would dress this place up like Alt- \u2018man\u2019s.I dare you.\u201d i Sam declined the suggestion with a shrug and a smile.He wondered how much Kicker hoped to borrow.Wade had not come to borrow, however, he had come to lay an of- The assured thereby obtains have become more im- of ina lump sum.MONTREAL coyoscrvee etes ce vene rte boy.anyhow?Well.well, it certainly .ship, the memory of which raised a lump in his throat.Sam had been mighty generous to him and Kicker remembered it.Yes, sir.He wouldn't be where he was now if Sam hadn't helped him over those lean years at Eastern.Good old Eastern! And Kicker was one hombre who never forgot a favor.He wasn't in a position to do anything at the moment but he had something in mind and when a certa.n deal came ofl he proposed to pay Sam back a hundred to one.No fooling .All right! All right! They'd say no more about it \u2014for the time being.Kicker rang up several times during the next week and chatted breezily.Sam waited The game amused him.He was not surprised when his old friend came in person finally, much excited, vaguely mysterious.Wade began his business by stating cryptically that fortunes on the Street were not made by taking chances.No, sir.The little fellows took chances but the big insiders always played safe.; \u201cWe handle oil stocks, mostly, in our shop,\u201d he explained.\"and when a proposition is better than usual we sometimes underwrite it.That's where the nourishment is; the public doesn\u2019t get its teeth into the good things until most of the juice is gone.Understand?Well, we've got a sweet one.Sam, and I've put you in.I said I'd blow back\u2014\" ~I never speculate, Kicker.\u201d \u201cExactly.That's where you are smart.I would't let you speculate if you wanted to.This isn't that kind of a deal; our group never speculates, it just divides profits.I'l tell you how it is.We've got an option on a big acreage in Texas, owned by some non-residents who are drilling a well.At least they think they're drilling it.As a matter of fact, it's down, finished, and they don't know it.The oil is there and the Standard will take the property at a figure that nets us a cool million and a half over our contract.The whole thing will be cleaned up in thirty days.I'm going in for what I've got and I'm taking this way to square my old account with you.You'll get a sure ten to one on your investment.Say.boy.you ought to know I'd die before I'd let you lose.\u201d Sam was sure this was true.Kicker was indeed a genuine.an unselfish friend but Wall Street was a dangerous playground for an inexperienced investor.Of course if this deal was as sure as Kicker claimed\u2014on the other hand\u2014doubt and indecision pryed ! upon Sam.he asked for a day in which to make up his mind.After more discussion, further explanations.renewed assurances of love and confidence, the friends parted.They wrung each other's hands at the door.Sam made the eight obeisances of brotherhood and Kicker's voice grew husky.his eyes moistened.Good old Sam! Gee.it was great to be pals again! And about a party here in this penthouse.Kicker would guarantee to stage a board-walk beauty parade on a day's notice.A form-fitting riot that would have to be seen to be appreciated.They met again on the following afternoon and Sam greeted his caller with an agreeable display of emotion.\u201cIt's nice of you to go to all this trouble.and it touches me.Friends have been mighty rare in my life.Kicker.A man without a friend is a brook without a source.a tree without a root.\u201d \u201cExactly!\u201d Wade helped himself to a cigar and to the easiest chair In + the room.\u201cAbout this deal.I don't want to rush you.buddy.but it is closing to-day.\u201d \u201cI was raised on proverbs.\u201d Sam continued.\u201cMy father used to warn me to guard my heart with the same vigilance as the ramparts of a city.In spite of the fact that your face farms me like the sun and your words of affection evoke in me a harmonious ecstasy.[ nevertheless felt that I owed it tu him to heed his admonitions.As a matter of filial duty.therefore.I investigated this proposition of yours.Kicker.\u201d Sam smiled queerly and Wade looked startled.\u201cYes?Well.I guess you found everything OK.\u201d \u201cOn the contrary [ found everything N.G.\u201d \u201cWhat d'you mean?I could have answered any questions.I put you next to this in strictest confidence.Good heavens, I hope you didn't doubt my motives!\u201d \u201cFortunately for me.I did and I found them counterfeit, as usual.\u201d \u201cAg usual!\u201d The visitor paled and rose to his feet.\u201cThat's a nice thing to say to a pal.I don't give a darn what you found out, or think you did.It's boloney .Humph! This is a sock on the button.It cures me of doing favors for a friend.\u201d He turned to go but Sam said: \u201cPermit me to tell you exactly what I discovered.\u201d \u201cTo hang with your discoveries!\u201d Kicked cried angrily.\u201cI ought to take a wolop at you for good luck.T am not used to insulta\u2014\" \u201cBut youre going to hear a few, just the same.Bah! Don't biuff and bluster; you're a paper tiger and you always were.Times have changed.Kicker.I'm giving insults nowadays instead of taking them, and it's very agreeable.I investigated that firm of yours and they're swindlers.\u201d \u201cYou're crazy! But\u2014rave on.I'm leaving you.\u2018Swindlers!\u2019 That's a laugh.\u201d Wade uttered these words on his way towards the door but he halted when two Chinese men barred his way.They were thick-set young fellows and they stared at him from unfriendly eyes.\u2018Hello! What is this?\u201d \u201cMerely a couple of my servants.\u201d \u201c 't you\u2014intend to let me out?\u201d the visitor queried in amazement.\u201cI intend to throw you out.\u201d \u201cWhat?\u201d \u201cBut first I presume I should call up Police Headquarters.\u201d \u201cNow see here, Sam\u2014\" icolor is being made, \u201cI know all about that oil enterprise.You said the well is down\u2014\" \u201cIt ie Bo help me\u2014\" \u201cIt has been drilled for three months and it's dry.And that option.Imaginary! .You're just what you were in college, Kicker, just a cheap grafter imposing on your friends.\u201d \u201cYou can't have me arrested.You havent lost any money, have you?All right!

(To be continued) Give Your Old Accessories a Beauty Treatment In every woman's wardrobe there are collections of shoes, belts and bags which are shabby, not because they are worn, but because they are either faded or stained.Very often these items are thrown away, as there seems to be no way of utilizing them.But now, there is a wizard's wand with which they can be literally transformed into something which is almost as good as new.The little brocade slippers, for instance, were originally white with a silver thread, but after a few dances they looked like nothing on earth, as white shoes always do when they are \u201ctired.\u201d But now the wizard has transformed them into a delightful old rose, in which the silver threads still glimmer.They are practically a new pair of shoes, and very attractive.The process is of the simplest.Purchase stain.These stains are sold in small bottles\u2014each bottle amply sufficient for one pair of shoes.In the cork of the bottle is a small wired-on pad, which soaks up the stain, and with which it is applied to the leather or fabric.The surface must first of all be well washed with warm, soapy water and the soap well washed off, so that there is no vestige of grease to interfere with the absorbent quality of the material.Then the shoes should be either put on trees or stuffed with paper, to push out any creases.When the fabric or leather is dry.the stain may be applied, with a circular movement, all over the material and allowed to dry in With shoes it is better.first, to stain all round the welt, with a straight movement.Make sure that the stain gets well into the crevice between the sole and the upper, for | any lightening of the color tone just here will, naturally.make the shoe look very patchy in wear.Next the heel, and after that the upper must be covered.Work quickly.with a well-laden but not dripping ad, and stain with a circular movement into the surface.This is im- ortant, because, if it is not remembered.the effect will be streaky instead of even.Also, it is necessary.once the work is started, to go on \u2014_\u2014\u2014 tering upon the altar of that friend- final shove sent him reeling

amount of work which is done for those who are in greater need than those who do the good deed.While complaints are made on all sides of the hard times we are up against, most of the complainers are willing to put their hands in their pockets and share the \u201cmore or less\u201d which may be in those pockets to help the less fortunate.The L O.D.E.(Jullus Richardson Chapter).\u2014 The report of this institution is very interesting and the Convenor of Work, Mrs.P.Dance, informs us that they spent over one hundred dollars on their work for the soldiers and social service work during the

patients at the St.Annes Hospital, who has to spend most of his time on his back.Many boxes of good cheer was also sent to the inmates of that institution, and the Girl Guides added their help to

if possible, until the whole surface is covered, as the stain dries very quickly, especially where one of the lighter tones is being used.and the dried part may leave a sort of \u201cwater-mark.\u201d Where a very radical change of two or three coats may be necessary, each one being left to dry on, before the next is applied.With black, for instance.great care must be taken to see that the color is full and solid before the polish is put on, or the shoes will have a rusty look.Fabric usually takes the stain more evenly, and makes a good effect even with a first coat.When the work is completed.on a leather surface.the leather may be polished with any good paste or cream.and the shoe will look like new.\u2018 The economy of these stains will be obvious to anyone who has known the trouble of the faded or weather- stained light kid shoe, belt or bag.But they have also a further use.The light felt hat which has faded or become soiled may be given a new lease of life by turning it into a different color.Black Opals Not Unlucky The black opal, according to an authority on precious stones, has never been considered unlucky.This is probably because it was not found until some time after the original gems, and by that time the faulty manner of setting had been corrected.Many different kinds of opals are mined, the white opal being the best known.There are three different types of white opal\u2014the pinky- white, which is the most common, and the blue and green.The lights of the two last named are better displayed against a dark background, and when not used for necklets are generally set backed by a piece of the rock on which they were originally found.The black opal is the most valuable of the species.It is found in only one piace, Lightning Ridge, Australia, but, unfortunately, the supply is now very nearly exhausted, and the gems are, consequently.rising in price.The Mexican fire opal may be obtained in all shades, from the palest lemon to the richest ruby red.The dark colored gems, of course, are the most valuable, but less expensive and equally attractive 18 the translucent water opal.These remarkable gems are a lemony-yellow in color, but flash sparkling lights of red, blue and green from their depths.- Ends Right Away The very first time I used \u2018Sooths- Salva\u2019 it ended the itch and pain of my lies right away.Stopged swelling and

the purpose.A general purpose hutch suitable either for male or female would measure three feet wide, three feet high and four feet to six feet long.The hutch should be set up about two feet from the ground and may be placed on a stand or fastened to a wall.It should be divided so as to have a nesting room in one end a foot and a half to two feet square.Provision must be made for good drainage and cleaning for rabbits must be kept very clean to be healthy.Ventilation also must be provided but in such a way as not to cause a draught.Double or sliding floors are very convenient for keeping hutches clean.The door of the sleeping part can be of wood but that of the living part would be better of wire.The mesh should be strong enough to keep out dogs and smaller mesh wire is as good as anything for keeping out mice.Tin or zinc could be used over the wood parts if preferred.Rabbits will be the better for reasonable exercise.To provide for this yards may be made enclosed with boards or wire netting.To keep rabbits in a yard it is necessary to put board or wire netting at least two feet into the ground to prevent them from burrowing holes and escaping.If you can keep them in a shed or barn enclosure, free {rom draughts, and so situated that you can let some sunlight in, it would be a good arrangement.Breeding for meat does not call for muc hexercise.Movable hutches that can

far removed from woods and wilderness would be difficult for our young people of the present to visualize.Amusements and occupations were so primitive that they became devoid of humor because of the difficulties under which both amusement and toil were accomplished.Mrs.MacLeod, Jr.was confronted with these things almost as soon as her arrival into her new home.To church upon horseback, riding one behind the other, did not encourage the new bride to display her city clothes.\u201cTo go to church\u201d was an injunction.No one in the colony dared to disregard this custom.Sir James Barrie in many of his Scotch plays, so inimically interpreted upon the American stage by Maud Adams, never exaggerated, even in \u201cThe Little Minister\u201d, the primitive customs in and about the church in Dundee at this early period.The minister preaching in both Gaelic and English upon the same Sunday.Mary was to see for the first time the leader of the choir, a tall forlorn loaking man, one who might have been selected by Washington Irving to impersonate his character of Ichabod Crane, place a tuning fork between his teeth and by emitting a nasal wail to launch the choir into full voice.The sanctimonious elders passing the black velvet collection pouches, suspended from a long wooden handle, searching for penning to be sent to missionaries in the Cannibal Islands, are distinctly out of luck in a place like Dundee.The greatest financial success ever carried out in Dundee was accomplished by one Rev.Donald Ross.One must realize that we are recounting incidents which are peculiar to frugal Scotch communities.That of raising money to build a large and architecturally beautiful church in the early history of the colony proves the undertaking all the more difficuit.However, the church stands to-day as a fitt\u2018ng memorial to the gentleman who separated the Scotchmen from the funds with which to build the edifice and also to the pioneer church-going families of Dundee.The church soirees was one of the soclal events of the year.At these times the housewives provided the food and did the cooking, while their daughters waited upon the tables.The farmer lads took advantage of these occasions to show their preferences for the neighboring lassies.If two boys were attracted to the same girl, then a competition was engaged in of \u201csitting out\u2019 the other fellow, should both of these youngsters come calling upon the same night.The parents, however, placed a time limit upon these engagements, the burning of midnight oil to no purpose, would not be tolerated very long.An incident is related of one of these contests which was finally decided by the parents of the young lady.She was advised to accept for marriage one of the twain chosen by the parents.The boy did not prove to be the choice of the daughter herself.The wedding arrangements went forward.The father of the intended bride proceeded along the trail through the woods to meetinghouse.Here the Invited guests had already assembled.It so happened that the young boy who had lost out in the \u201csitting out\u201d contest because of the interference of the designing parent, was dodging about from tree to tree as the father with his daughter mounted behind him, were travelling to the church upon the back of \u201cOld Dobbin.\u201d The girl caught sight of her real love among the trees.Signals were exchanged.The groom had already taken his place by the bride at the altar.The parson going right ahead with the ceremony.The preacher being at the passage where the lines read.\u201cDo you take this man to be your lawful wedded husband?\u201d \u201cNo!\u201d answered the bride.Not feeling certain that the girl had heard aright, he repeated the important line again.Once more the lady replied in the negu- tive.The parson espying the other aspirant for the hand of the maiden, in the door at the rear of the meeting-house, he asked the bride whether she had another preference.\u201cI have,\u201d she answered, pointing to the doorway at the rear, \u201cand if he will come forward I will marry him.\u201d The substitution was made and the wedding proceeded.The frugality of the Scotch has provided many incidents from which story tellers have gotten together quite a repertoire.They are not all characteristic of Scotch humor.Two members of the race found themselves facing each other in a compartment of a railway carriage.They had never met before.Presently one of the twain took from his vest pocket a pipe.Fondling the bowl of his old friend pipe, leaned forward toward his companion and assuming a careless manner, asked for a match.He received the match.Still affectionately fondling the pipe, he employed the other hand in searching through his pockets.Again inclining his body toward the other passenger, confidingly he remarked that he had forgotten his tobacco.\u201cThen my man,\u201d said his opposite, and reaching forward his hand, \u201cYou will not be needing the match.\u201d - LA LA * » * MacPherson was lying ill in the public ward of a hospital in Glasgow.A fad taken up by young women, called Settlement Workers, by which means each hoped to relieve the ennuie of their aimless life.One morning there \u201cbarged in\u201d upon MacPherson, at the hospital, one of these busy workers.Approaching his cot, the lady announced to Mac that she was going to sing to him, going at once into action.Finishing her effort, squaring her shoulders and Keeping the chest well forward, she asked of her victim, \u201cAnd how do you like that, my man?\u201d Mac raised himself upon his arm, the while considering her question.He replied, \u201c\u2019Tis too bad ye canna sing, and ye so wullin too.\u201d Directing his gaze upon her features, he continued, \u201cYa know, I was a billee in my day, you wud ha glen your ee to a had me.\u201d .* * * \u201d William and Mary MacLeod were now taking their place amongst the residents of the colony.The old Laird bending before the advance of time was gradually relying more upon William to carry on his farm and to familiarize himself with the duties encumbent, which the Laird had administered in the colony since its beginning.The name attaching to the homestead as that of \u201cThe House of the Process Verbal.\u201d Significant, of course, to those farmers whose adjoining land was traversed by the same water - course as it continued on through the land of the neighbor.Disputes over line fences and other controversies between farmers were amicably settled out of court by the Laird.No expenses incurred.To these responsibilities, William as a young man naturally fell heir.The gratuitous work left by the Laird to Willlam made serious inroads upon his time.Tradition is strong among the Scotchmen.They had been getting valuable advice in the direction of their affairs, given all free, no wonder that their tradition was.strong in that quarter.The Scotch are faithful and long suffering, one often hears, true to home ties, etc.* * * * + A Glasgow man and woman had lived long together as man and wife in the colony.Finally the wife took ill and died.The husband made a de- Entertained the men who were to act as pallbearers and in other ways conformed to the customs of the neighborhood.A short distance from the grave the funeral cortege was halted, as the custom of the day required.The remains was then carried upon the shoulders of the bearers the balance of the distance to the grave.Passing a corner of the cemetery where a wall protruded slightly upon the path, the coffin came against the wall, and fell to the street.While attempting to raise the coffin again to their shoulders, a suspicious noise and movement was heard from within the coffin.The box was opened
