the woodwork has been cleaned and varnished.The pews atmosphere.have also been done over.For Easter Sunday the church will have a spic and span appearance.Mr.Hatcher has plans laid out for the improving of the surroundings of the church, which includes the cemetery.The descendants of those buried in this cemetery should voluntarily come forward and offer assistance to St.John's congregation for this contemplated work for the summer of 1832.School Hockey Team to be Entertained.\u2014 At the executive meeting of the Board of Trade held on Thursday evening it was unanimously approved of the idea of entertaining the Hun- tingdon Academy hockey team to a supper at the Chateau in honor of their winning the School Hockey League trophy.The entertaining will be on a convenient date to be arranged.The men of Huntingdon and community are invited to join in the celebrating of the victory attained by the boys.The entertainment committee of the Board of Trade headed by Mr.C.M.Oney is in charge of the preparations for the evening.The secretary-treasurer was requested to have the notes renewed for the money loaned to the Bowling Club and to the United Church.The following executives of the Board constitute the members of the various committees: Town Committee: F.G.Braith- waite, T.S.Gardiner, J.O.Michaud.Advertising: J.P.Harvey, F.G.Braithwaite and D.J.O'Connor.Industrial: D.J.O'Connor, J.P.Harvey and C.M.Oney.© Entertainment: C.M.Oney, T.S.Gardiner and J.O.Michaud.Ready for Television.\u2014.There is one hotel in the world, and one only it is said, which has apparatus for the reception of television when this science is brought to such a state that it is broadcast.This is the Waldorf-Astoria in New York, whose assistant manager and Canadian representative, Herman A, Dupuis, was in Montreal and Hun- tingdon over the week-end.Opened only in October last, the Waldorf-Astoria has the largest area of any hotel in the world.Mr.Du- puis told The Gazette in the course of en interview.It has had particular success in its efforts to attract visitors from the Dominion, out of every forty.which statistics show reach New York every day, being host to fifteen.\u201cCanadian business is far greater than we ever hoped,\u201d he said, \u201cand we offer special facilities to Dominion visitors, such as the acceptance of Canadian money at par for the payment of hotel bills.This service cost us actually $1,500 last month.We expect television to be an actuality within a year, so each of our two thousand rooms is equipped with receiving sets.\u201d Private home cooking is another feature of this hotel's service, the preparation of dishes being done in private homes and then sent to the hotel where it is served to the guests There are also private cooks who come in for special dishes as required.The success the hotel has had with its Canadian guests is largely due, Mr.Dupuis feels, to the personal contacts he has kept up by tours in the Dominion.He was in Montreal at the Ritz-Carlton and the Windsor Hotels before going to New York and has hosts of friends.Mr.Dupuis visited on Monday with his parents, Mr.and Mrs.L.N.Du- puis, and his sisters, Mrs.Popeck, Mrs.Lorden, and Mrs.Wattie.Wrecks on C.N.R.Line.\u2014 The Jocal C.N, R, line was unfortunate in having two mishaps occur between Montreal and Massena on Monday.A coach of the regular morning passenger train was damaged near Massena.An arch on the truck of the car had been partly broken and in backing into a bank of snow it broke completely.The coach canted to one side and the train was held up until repairs were made.The second mishap which delayed Monday evening's mail occurred about 1 mile east of Ormstown when a broken wheel on the car of a freight train caused the derailment of 11 cars.A few cars were left partly on the track and these had to be removed to let the evening train through, which reached here at 11 pm.A crew is still working to get the remaining cars back on the track.In the shipment on this derailment are four cars of aluminum ore and two cars of lumber for Massena; two cars of feed for Fort Covington, and the remaining cars other merchandise.The Canadiens-Toronto hockey match picture will be shown in the local theatre Saturday and Sunday.The management has also scheduled an Old-Fashioned Dance for Easter Monday and a dance with Joe Owen and his Sarnia Seremnders for Friday, April 1st.The fire alarm blew Saturday forenoon for a fire in Bisson\u2019s Barber Shop.Fortunately, it was only a chimney fire, and was soon extinguished.The following students attending Macdonald College are home for the Easter vacation: Elisabeth Bruce, Alison Cunningham, Ruth Stark and Earle Farquhar, The Misses Juliette and Valeda Caza spent the week-end with relatives and friends in the city.on Town Irish Stew and Entertainment.\u2014 The Irish Stew supper and entertainment in the basement of St.John's Anglican Church on St.Pat- ricks Day was a distinct success.Following a delicious supper served by the ladies of the church, a program followed, which was greatly enjoyed.Decorations in keeping with the event were tastefully displayed.Rev.W.S.Hatcher presided.Instrumental and vocal numbers, dances.playlets and tableaux formed an interesting program.Those taking part were Miss G.Hampson, Mrs.Burt Rankin, Mr.J.B.MacMillan, Mrs.McNaughton, Mrs, Dawson, Mrs.J.Hampson, Mr.Burt Rankin, and the Misses Muriel Stott, Viola Clark Dorothy Hood.Eileen Whealon, and Eleanor and Dorothy Grant.Proceeds from the supper and

Valleyfield teams played against Huntingdon Academy, the local school winning both games by narrow margins.The first game was between the Valleyfield Eaglets and the Hunting- don Academy Juniors.This was the only opportunity this year of seeing the Juniors in action locally.and spectators were very interested throughout the battle for honours, Scores for Valleyfield were made by Haworth 2, and Parry 1; those for Huntingdon by Taylor, 2; Kirby, 1, and M.McWhinnie.1, The final score was: Academy Juniors, 4, Eaglets, 3.Valleyf'd Eaglets Acad.Jrs.goal Jobson

had an exceptionally strong team on the ice and in order to defeat them the Academy aggregation had to work at top notch speed all the time.The game was fast from the.first blowing of the whistle to the final gong.Many spectators declared it was the best game played here this season.The opposition was strong but the Academy team\u2019s finesse in play earned them a decisive victory, the score having been 2-1.No goals were scored in the first and second periods.Huntingdon got many shots at the Valleyfield goalie but he was almost invincible.Two scores were made for the Academy in the final period, one by Lindsay Chambers, the other by Billy Boyd.Boyer scored for the Eagles in this period.Tomorrow, Thursday, the Academy team plays Lachute in Montreal.There is a possibility of a game at Shawinigan on Saturday.The irvi- tation has been extended to the local team to play there, and, it is probable, they will accept.Bill Tedstone refereed both games.Valleyf\u2019d Eagles H'don Acad.goal

Rinks Present From Caledonia Caledonia Wins Friendly Games Crown Derby Plates Presented to Howe, Cunningham, Batcheller and Harvey Monday was one of the real curling days in the annals of curling for Huntingdon.The foundation for the day was the fact that four rinks from the Caledonia Curling Club of the Royal Caledonia Curling Association came to Huntingdon to make a formal presentation of the \u201cPat Lid Trophy\u201d to Huntingdon.Some of our readers might just wonder why the name \u201cPat Lid.\u201d J.Bruce Stewart of the Granite Association in Canada informed the curlers that when T.Howard Stewart first curled in Edinburgh he fired his first rock and it covered the lid, hence the name \u201cPat Lid.\u201d As this event took place in Edinburgh, Scotland, he presented them with a trophy much larger in size than the \u201cPat Lid\u201d just won by Huntingdon, the Edinburgh trophy which is also of sterling silver upholds a full sized curling stone.The \u201cPat Lid\u201d trophies presented here by Mr.Stewart are identical in design but smaller.After the ladies had served a delicious hot supper to the visiting rinks and a large number of local curlers, Mr.J.M.Leehy, president of the Club called upon Mr.C.W.Mc- Clatchie to extend a word of welcome to the visitors and friends.Acknowledgment was made by Mr.Peter Lyall.Mr.Lyall made many kindly references to the granite bonspiel.particularly the one for Montreal.Mr.Lyall drew the attention of curlers as to how the granite curling was here introduced, which he intimated was really the national form of curling, irons being used in a very small portion of the world.In Canada there are 30.000 curlers, said Mr.Lyall.The presentation of the \u201cPat Lid\u201d was made by its donor, Mr.T.Howard Stewart.It was Mr.Stewart who made it possible for the Curling Club to have granites for it was due to the generosity of Mr.Stewart that the granites were presented to the Huntingdon Club.Mr.Stewart explained that the \u201cPat Lid\" was for annual competition.but that a club could only win one such trophy.In the event of a club again winning the high score in this competition, the Club would receive no trophy but the players would receive gold medals, and Crown Derby plates would be presented to them.Mr.Stewart then presented the trophy to Mr.Leehy the president and was acknowledged by A.L.Sellar in behalf of the Club.Mr.J.Bruce Stewart in behalf of the Curling Association of Canada presented the Crown Darby plates to the individual players who made up the Huntingdon rink that won the trophy.The players were Robert Howe, lead; H.T.Cunningham, 2nd; F.I.Batcheller, 3rd and J.P.Harvey, skip.Mr.Harvey, in behalf of the rink, acknowledged the gift prize of beautiful Crown Darby plates.Mr.Billy Brown, Secretary of the Granite Association drew the attention of the curlers present to the fact that although Huntingdon as an outside club sent in 4 rinks to the bon- spiel, all four rinks won their games.Mr.Brown said, \u201caccording to the Association's records this was never done by an outside club before.\u201d This statement was punctuated with a hearty applause by the visiting curlers.The congenial personage, in the name of Johnny Walker, sang a couple of songs that were much enjoyed.With a hearty cheer for the ladies, the curlers adjourned to the ice.The aggregate score in the four games of curling played during the evening showed that Caledonia won 40 to 33.The rinks were: Caledonia Huntingdon J.J.Robert C.M.Oney R.H.Paul J.A.McCracken J.B.Stewart J.M.Leehy H.R.Hutchinson

prevented a number of curlers of Saranac from motoring to Hunting- don to enjoy a game of curling.One car load managed to make the trip and arrived here during the afternoon.This team was drawn against J.W.Stark and successfully defeated the local aggregation 11 to 10.The visitors were entertained to a dinner at the Chateau by the defeated rink.Upon the arrival of the evening train Tom Smith, formerly of Ormstown, arrived with his aggregation.Two games of granites were played in the evening, Tom Smith winning by a comfortable margin of 8 over E.Cunningham.The Saranac victors of the afternoon went down to defeat by W.J.Goundrey by 1 shot.After the curling, the refreshments prepared by the ladies of the club were much enjoyed.The Vice-Presi- dent.Bob Howe sat at the head of the table.and called upon J.P.Harvey to make the presentation of the International Cup.Mr.Harvey intimated that with the Cup went a good deal of sentiment, especially from two of the fellow curlers of the Club.The trophy is to be played for annually by these two Clubs.It is understood Huntingdon is to visit Saranac in 1933 and play for the Cup.Mr.Lobdell and Mr.Jos.Reider- holz were principal entertainers of the evening.The teams that played were: Saranac Huntingdon J.Hennessey M.Cowin W.Cummins J.B.Carr S.Powell S.D.Popeck Peter Moe W.J.Goundeyr Skip 12 Skip 13 J Hennessey Rev.J.H.Millar

USE WATER METERS Lachine City Engineer Complains of Wastage of 500,- 000 Gallons Daily Robert Dorion, engineer for the City of Lachine, announced that he would recommend to the city authorities the passing of a by-law ordering installation of water meters in all Lachine homes so as to put a stop to the present waste, which he estimates at 500,000 gallons a day.Mr.Dorion said that sice the new filter had been in operation the consumption of water was found to have been four million gallons per twenty- four hours in the City of Lachine and in the Town of LaSalle.But there was a terrible waste, mostly caused by leaky taps, defective plumbing and poor connections.He pointed out that some persons allowed the water to run nearly all day in their homes.Some did this to prevent the water from freezing in cold weather, but it was a costly matter.He illustrated his statement by saying that he knew of a case where man had a meter and whose water bill was generally $2.90 a month.One month he allowed the water to run slowly, but continually, to prevent it from freezing and the meter recorded the use of the water with the result that his bill for that month was over ten dollars.In the matter of faulty or bad connections of pipes, Mr.Dorion said that the department would make all recessary repairs in the spring.Is this a tip worth adopting in Huntingdon?St.Anicet \u2014 Mrs.Margaret Thornton of Saran- ac Lake, N.Y.was a recent guest for a few days at the home of Mr.and Mrs, John A.Saumier.Voting on the prohibition by-elec- tion passed off quietly here.There seemed to be a lack of

returned home two weeks ago after serving a sentence of 22 months in the penitentiary for stealing.After having been sentenced on 5 or 8 previous occasions, and spending so much time imprisoned, he has apparently not learned to obey the laws of justice in regards to stealing.On Friday night be gained entrance to the store of W.E.Lefebvre through removing a double window, then moving the ventilator, and with a bar pried off an iron slat so as to raise the window.After gaining entrance to Mr.Lefebvre's office he entered the store proper and took an overcoat, pair of boots, fur-lined gloves and some tobacco, valued at about $10.He then vacated the store in the same manner and replaced the storm window.After having completed the theft, King went to the parish priest.Rev.J A.Derome, between 2 and 3 o'clock in the morning and confessed his guilt.Knowing that he would be accused, he appealed to Father Derome for assistance.Father Derome in , turn, advised him to go to the Mayor, W.8.Brown and confess his acts, and return the goods to Mr.Lefeb- vre.King in turn delivered the stolen goods to Mr.Lefebvre.On Saturday morning he was put in the town lockup.He was given a hearing before Justices of the Peace Faubert and Thomas on Monday.The accused pled guilty and asked that he be sentenced in Huntingdon.The Justices in turn committed him to Valleyfield to be sentenced by Justice Morin who will in all probability be the presiding judge.King was sentenced yesterday and received a 6 months imprisonment.Farmers May Shoot Sheep-killing Dogs Sheep-killing dogs may be killed

was attended by a fair sized crowd.The program of music consisting of choruses, quartettes and solos, which were all of an Irish nature, were well rendered and thoroughly enjoyed by all those present.The speaker of the evening, Mr.W.J.Clark of Westmount, although a real Scot with a very broad brogue gave a most interesting talk on Ireland and Irish humor, and embellished his talk with many humorous ancedotes.The W.M.S.of 8t.Paul's United Church met in McDougall Hall on Saturday afternoon.After an hour spent in sewing and knitting the business meeting was called to order by the

Mrs.McOuat and was on the Health Conditions of that distant land and showed the great need of sanitary changes to save the lives of the natives.There are some hospitals in charge of medical missionaries that are equipped with all modern appliances, but they are so crowded that much has to be left undone owing to the lack of room.In these hospitals the gospel message is brought to the patients and often through them to others.The work committee reported several donations of socks and materials to be used for garments.After the closing of prayer by Miss Stevenson Short Shots on the Quebec Challenge Cup Games.\u2014 By Ed.Baker, Sports Editor, Ottawa Citizen, March 17th.One of the most masterful exhibitions of curling skill ever displayed in the Capital was performed at the Rideau Curling Club by the veteran Michael Mulvaney of Ormstown.\u201cMike\u201d as the popular veteran ia called by his intimate friends, gave quite a large gallery an eyeful of the best there is in this branch of sport.He made beautiful draw shots, spectacular wicks and daring raises that thrilled the spectators and did it all in a manner that looked easy but yet is most difficult for the beat of curers, It was in the Quebec Challenge Cup match, where Rideaus were defenders of this old curling trophy, Michael's rink was playing the Rideau quartet with E.L.Brittain skip, and it was no discredit to the latter to be defeated as the brand of curling he was opposed to was very much out of the ordinary.In the fifth end of the game when Michael went to play his last iron, there were five Rideau irons in the rings.with Ormstown irons conapiou- ous by their absence.The veteran skip instead of trying an outside draw to reduce the count against him, elected to play a ten foot raise.Taking perfect ice his metal came down absolutely true, and with the right welght raised an iron in to the button to count one.On the next end the veteran skip with his last iron made a kiss shot that brought tremendous applause from the onlookers.It took out two Rideau irons and left five of the Ormstown metals counting and so guarded, that skip Brittain was unable to change the situation with his iron that followed.Again on the elghth end, the Old Master came through a very narrow port to get shot with his first Iron and then when skip Brittain was a trifle narrow with his last.Mulvaney made a perfect draw to count three.There was of course a number of other high lights to the game and some of them came from the Rideau players but this is a tribute to one of the greatest curlers your correspondent has ever seen In action.M.Mul- vaney's exhibition last night is all the more remarkable because of the fact that he had recently suffered a severe injury to his right eye.This required three stitches on his eyeball and the veteran's sight was Impaired considerably.And it is also a fact that he had not done very much curling In the last seven or eight years, St.Patrick's Day Celebrated at Curling Club.\u2014 A mixed bonspiel was held at the local rink on Wednesday and Thursday of last week, and this event ended in a victory for the rink skipped by D.F.Mcintyre.R.8.Dunn skipped hls rink in the consolation round and emerged victor in the final game over Geo.Hope.This was the first time that the ladles played the granite stones and from the comments of the plate glass skips, are able to compete in any competition.The prizes were very substantial, to the winners in the maln competition went a bag of flour and one pound of baking powder to each one on the rink and the consolation winners were awarded two silver spoons each.Those who took part and their scores are as follows: Wednesday, Preliminary Round Miss M.Sadler Mrs.R.8.Dunn Dr.M.R.Stalker Ethan McCartney

Montreal, one of which will be of particular interest to the apple and vegetable producers of this district, The other matter referred to was that of selling example of 80,000,000 pounds of frozen fish.The story told as to how the fish were sold, when they were a glut on the market, is equally applicable to the fruit and vegetable market.In regards to the fish situation, Mrs.Evelene Spencer, who is an outstanding authority upon the value of fish as a food, is at present engaged by the Federal Department of Fisheries as well as the Quebec Dept.of Colonization, Game and Fisherles.Her work in life is to educate people to use a greater amount of fish in the weekly menu, and on Wednesday last she told the Montreal Advertising Club how she accomplished that objective.For a number of years Mrs.Spencer was employed by the U.S.Government for this same purpose.In 1920 she was directed to the Pacific coast area to see what could be done to develop a demand for shad.Shad were very plentiful, and were selling at only 5c a pound.Mrs.Spencer said the fish were selling so cheap people did not prize their value and just did not buy them.According to the U.8.law frozen fish are not allowed to be sold after May 1st.During the late winter of that same year the central states had 80,000,000 pounds of fish in the cold storage plants.The fish mongers were in a worried state of mind, for people were not buying fish.To assist in this sale Mrs.Spencer and her party were instructed to leave the Pacific coast and go to the central U.S.cities.Upon arrival at the first big city she saw a beautiful array of frozen fish, and on top of the exhibit was a fine big shad.The shad was here advertised at 45c per pound, not 5 cents a pound.Shad was there looked upon as a delicacy.The Spencer party immediately proceeded to put on fish cooking demonstrations that were well advertised, and throngs of women flocked to the stores where the demonstrations were being given.The fish began to sell, and by the 2nd week in April when the party arrived in Cleveland, no cold storage fish were left to market.The demand had been created and in February and March and one week in April, 80 mil- lon pounds of fish were sold, three weeks before the season was declared closed.Indeed this was a rmarkable achievement.Mrs.Spencer is now doing this same kind of work in Canada, with hopes of stimulating a greater demand for fish.Now our fruit and vegetable growers in this District may not be interested in fish marketing but they are interested in the sales for fruit and vegetables.If the apple market is to be developed, there must be a greater consumption of apples.What is true of apples is also true of vegetables.Advertising in many forms is what is going to make the sales increase, and just last week the growers and distributors of fruit and vegetables came to a settlement as to how to develop the sales.40,000 producers and distributors are interested, and they have decided upon an advertising campaign.It will be a Dominion wide advertising campaign, and is being supported throughout the whole of Canada.To the men in Huntingdon who know Mr.H.E.Stephenson, they will be pleased to hear that he has taken on the contract to advertise fruit and vegetables to make them more popular and in keen demand.Mr.Stephenson is the secretary of A.McKim Limited one of Canada\u2019s greatest advertising agencies and who addressed the merchants and dealers of the Chateauguay Valley in Huntingdon last fall.Bennett Says Sun Life as Solvent as Any Life Insurance Company Need be A statement of deep interest to the hundreds of thousands of policyholders of the Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada was made by the prime minister of Canada, Rt.Hon.R.B.Bennett when, speaking in the House of Commons on March 14, he characterized as \u201cmalicious and malignant\u201d attacks made upon the company and expressed his complete belief in the solvency of the institution.His knowledge of the position of the company was founded, he said, upon his personal inquiries, upon the investigations of the Dominion Insurance department and upon the audits of the insurance departments of 38 states of the United States, as well as those of other countries in which the Sun Life does business.\u201cI need hardly say to the House,\u201d said Mr.Bennett, \u201cthat no matter with which I have had to deal in my official position gave me more concern than this.Why?Because it touched the lives of hundreds of thousands\u2014yea, almost millions\u2014of people, as well as of many yet unborn, and my duty was not to hazard anything to a mere guess, but to endeavor by every means in my power to see to it that our officials should make a report which would enable me to say to the people of Canada and elsewhere, who were dependent upon the solvency of this great enterprise that it was solvent.On that report I make my statement.I believe it is true.I believe the Sun Life company is as solvent as any company transacting the business of life insurance need be.\u201d Such direct and forceful support of any individual corporation by a Prime Minister speaking on the floor of the House is almost without precedent and climaxed four years of sniping and innuendo which has been made use of in Canada and other countries to the detriment of the Sun \u201c Life and to the peace of mind of many policyholders.Mr.Bennett's direct declaration deplored the fact that the \u201cmalicious and malignant\u201d attacks had been graced by repetition in parliament and in one part of his speech said: \u201cAs far as it is possible for one to satisfy himself, having no interest as a policyholder or otherwise, these enterprises are solvent.That is my profound conviction, my fixed and certain conviction, and I believe that nothing but injury can be done by any endeavor to send to the committee on banking and commerce an investigation of the character suggested.\u201d The matter came before the house by way of a resolution introduced by Michael Luchkovich (Progressive, Vegreville) asking that inquiry be made into rumors and allegations with which members of the house had been deluged.Mr.Bennett's reply was: \u201cI believe it is wrong\u2014it is wrong, I say, to the Canadian people and to the insured men and women in this and other countries that in this parliament a malignant and malicious attack should find credence by being read by any member.\u201d Mr.Bennett's unequivocal assertion of the solvency of the company and of the absence of any necessity for an investigation was warmly supported by Hon.J.L.Ralston, minister of militia in the former King Government and by Hon.C.H.Cahan, secretary of state in the Bennett Ministry.Both these members, as policyholders in the Sun Life, had made careful inquiry in their own behalf and not only declared their fullest confidence in the security of their policies, but joined with Mr.Bennett in paying tribute to the integrity and capacity of the directors and officers of what Mr.Bennett called \u201cCanada\u2019s greatest financial institution,\u201d the Sun Life of Canada.J.Earl Lawson (Conservative, West York) G.B.Nicholson (Conservative, Algoma East) and other members of the house added emphatic en- Gorsation to the speeches of Messrs.Bennett, Ralston and Cahan, all stressing the point that every investment of the company was strictly within the Canadian law and that not only had no funds properly belonging to pol- scyholders ever been diverted to shareholders, but that actually 50 per cent of the participating policy profits rightfully belonging to shareholders had for many years been volunterily distributed to policyholders.The discussion of affairs of the company should effectively counteract what Mr.Bennett regarded as malicious attacks and fully restore any confidence in the positidn of the company that might have been shaken by them.Co Chronicled News Bits Specially Written for The Huntingdon Gleaner Prized Steer Was Tubercular The champion beef steer of the Royal Winter Fair in 1930, which passed the judges with highest marks, was admired by hundreds of cattle fanciers, and bid in at a price of nearly $3,000 by a Toronto firm planning to sell the meat for advertising purposes, was discovered when it reached the abattoir, to be \u201criddled with tuberculosis,\u201d a meeting of the Toronto East Medical Association was informed recently by Dr.Gordon Cameron, Toronto bacteriologist.Dr.Cameron was stressing the point that it was almost impossible to detect tubercular cattle without a special test or until it was slaughtered and inspected by qualified persons.Irish to Build Radio Station Not, as in song, near the tumble-down shack in Athlone, but on the contrary, near old Moy- drum Castle, close to Athlone, the new $35,000 broadcasting station of the Irish Free State government is to be begun within a few weeks.The new station will be one of the most powerful in Europe.It will be known as 2RN and will supplant the present Dublin station of the same call letters.The Dublin studio will be retained for hook-up with the station at Ath- lone.The equipment for the station is being completed by the Marconi people, and will be ready for installation as soon as the buildings, 300-foot aerials and other parts of the plant proper are finished.The new 2RN is expected to give great impetus to the radio industry in Ireland, and undoubtedly will ad& substantially to the government's revenue from radio sets, for as in other European countries, every receiving set is subject to tax.The station is to be built on a part of the old Lord Castlemaine estate.The stately castle of Moydrum, nearby, was among the Irish mansions sacked during the Anglo-Irish war.Wants Son, Gets Girl Frank Lee, San Francisco, Chinatown photographer, burned many joss sticks at the priests\u2019 temple and prayed long for sons to bless his

in \u201cAppraisals of Canadian Literature.\u201d There is not the characteristic exaggeration of the one, nor the characteristic restraint of the other.There is a closer affinity, perhaps, with the Scottish type, as exemplified by Barrie, with his whimsicality and sympathetic indulgence, but the Canadian style is more downright, and deals more with action, less with character, It is a hearty sense of fun.arising from genuine joy of life, including an eye for the absurd which is latent in the commonplace.It is essentially good-na- tured.Steering a perilous course between crudity and sentimentality.it usually contrives to avoid both, by sheer force of simple, sunny cheerfulness.Emden Nameplate to be Returned In November, 1914, the German cruiser Emden, whose exploits in the early part of the world war as a destroyer of British commerce made a veritable saga.was run ashore on Cocos Island by an Australian man o\u2019'war., Now the government of Australia is going to return her nameplate to Germany \u201cin token of appreciation of the chivalrous conduct of the Em- den's commander and crew,\u201d according to the British ambassador, Sir Horace Rumbold, in a notification to Chancellor Bruening.Snakes Defy Firemen Many rare wild animals were burned to death in a fire which destroyed the establishment of a wholesale animal dealer at Hamburg.Rattlesnakes prevented the firemen from getting up to the blaze until it was well under way.An old oil lamp had started the fire, which spread rapidly, nourished by the wooden cages of birds, monkeys and snakes.The rattlers escaped from their half burned cage, and when the firemen came rushing to the building they found the entrance guarded by a row of furious snakes ready to strike.They turned the hose on them but others emerged to take their places, and by the time the firemen had killed the rattlers with long sticks most of the trapped animals were dead.A Horrible Bet But Horrible bet was made at a village inn at Vel- Ki, Jugo-Slavia.A stranger drove up to the inn, at which a crowd was gathered and challenged any man there to drink a pint of gasoline and then blow out a match.To the one who would, he offered $25.A man somewhat drunk accepted the dare and struck the match.There was a great explosion, then the victim was a mass of flames.He died instantaneously.The police are hunting for the motorist, who will be charged with manslaughter.Turtles Stage Combat Two turtles.in mortal combat, one weighing 88 and the other 105 pounds approximately, were observed by passengers on the mall steamer Arankola, en route to Calcutta.So fiercely were they engrossed that neither the proximity nor the manoeuvres of the vessel distracted them.The boat was turned round, and with clever seamanship, it became possible to lower a net beneath the still struggling contestants, who were hauled safely board, amid the cheering of the onlookers, who that night had turtle soup added to the usual menu for dinner.Grapefruit to Match Boudoir Milady who sleeps to noon and lkes to have her breakfast in bed now may have a new whim satisfied.She may have colored grapefruit to match the

way they should go, is the subject of an All-Union toy exhibit at Moscow.Toys are regarded as an important educational factor in getting youngsters of pre-school age started right.Pride of the collection is the new conveyor belt toy, a big plaything several yards long and designed to be operated by several children at once.Tractors, motor cars and certain types of agricultural machinery may be put together on this belt in a realistic way.The children learn the thrill of tending the belt and have a chance to see how real industry is carried on.Then there are model farms, collective, of course, which are meant to be played with in a collective way.Soldiers also play a large part in the education of the country\u2019s children.Strikingly modelled red soldiers, very simple and impressionistically fashioned, help inculcate the idea that a fine army stands ready to defend the Soviet Union against any and all comers.Seventeen million rubles are slated to be spent in 1932 on the mass production of toys.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Gets Out Extra at 89 Gen.N.G.Osteen, 89, of Sumter, S.C., climbed aboard his bicycle and pedaled down to help the Sumter

A mail airplane, to attain a top speed of 200 miles an hour has been ordered by the British Air Ministry.The specifications require that it shall he designed for a cruising speed of over 150 miles an hour, carrying two pilots, 1,000 pounds of mail and sufficient fuel for 1,000 miles non-stop.Provision must be made for elaborate navigational equipment suitable for night and day flying.A big increase in the use of air mail services during 1931, indicating steady growth of public confidence in the airplane it is believed, was the prime factor in the Air Ministry's decision to order the new high speed mail carrier.During last year, 117,376 pounds of letters were carried out of Britain by air mail.an increase of 29 per cent over the figure for 1930 and 74 per cent over that for 1929.The greater part of this rise is attributed to increased public use of the established services rather than to the opening of new air mail routes.Of this vast mailbag, the Indian line, which also serves Egypt Iraq and Palestine, took 52,509 pounds, the European services 35,094 pounds, and the Central African route 5457 pounds.Truckloads of Evidence Truckloads of evidence, including a 2300-page indictment, were hauled into court at Berlin for the trial of the three brothers Sklarek.who are charged with swindling and bribery after squandering a fortune of $5,000,000 made during the war.Their actions ruined Herr Boess, former Lord Mayor of Berlin.One affidavit asserts that the Sklareks, in the four years before their arrest, paid out $400.000 in bribes to city officials and forged the signatures of city representatives on 210 receipts.Another affidavit declares that cach brother spent $15,000 monthly on wine, women, cabarets, racing and clothes.Cafe Banishes Fair Barmaids Canadians

with a piece of his own rib in his head.The boy went fishing with his brother, and was accidentally struck on the head with a rod which the other lad was swinging.His skull was smashed and the splintered bone pressed against the brain, Doctors removed the shattered pieces of the skull and stitched the scalp into position.As the brain was left protected only by a thin layer of skin over which the hair grew, a surgeon took a piece of bone from a rib in the boy's right side and grafted it into the skull.Hangs Himself in Jail Joseph Vincent, 35 years, old of Herkimer, N.Y, arrested on a charge of disorderly conduct on complaint of his wife.told police he would hang himself if put behind the bars.The police laughed.Ten minutes later Chief Keller found him suspended by his neck from the top of his cell block, by his necktie.End 600 Years Fight 8ix centuries of litigation over a small tract of land has finally been settled in the Italian courts.The Royal Commissioner for the Litigation of Civic Rights has confirmed the rights of the village of Badia di Todalda, to the disputed field, known as La Pianca.According to the Commissioner's decision Badia's rights date from 1530, and all other claims are null and vold.Thus ends more than 600 years of quarrelling between four villages.The tract of land 1s unimportant in itself, but for years the people of the villages of Fresciano, Pratieghi, Montebovolino and Badia have fought over the exclusive rights to use the field.The citizens of Badia finally produced the wrinkled faded document showing that their ancestors had been given exclusive rights to the land in 1330 for the annual payment of 15 Roman scudi (about $18).Brooklet W.M.S.Meets.\u2014 The March meeting of the WM.S.of Rennie\u2019s United Church was

(2) the numbers contributing in each municipal- Pringle, Stark & Co.Ladies\u2019 Spring Coats First showing of ladies\u2019 Coats.Priced $12.50 to $25.00.Printed Cotton Voiles 36 in, 3 patterns, 25¢ yd.Harvey Knit Silk Rayon Undies at new price.Ladies\u2019 Linen Hankies The very latest hankie fashion, pure line with eyelet work corners, 35¢, 3 for $1.00.Girl's plain hemstitch Hankies, 5c each, 12 for 50c.New Silk Dresses New styles every week, $7.95 and $9.95.all sizes.Wabasso Cottons Corded Stitched Pillow, good as gold and white as snow, 42 in.hemstitched, 40 cts.Hemstitched Pillow Slips 40 in.25c each.Hand drawn Pillow Slips, 42 in.30c each.Super quality 42 in.Pillow Cotton 35c yd.Wabasso Cosy Comfort Sheets 81 by 100 inches, $1.00 each.Circular Wabasso 40 in.extra heavy special 40 in.33c.40 in.Unbleached Cotton Unsurpassed for finish and durability, 22c.Snow Drift Bleached Long Cloth.81 in.Bleached Sheeting.Special 65c Flannelette Blankets Large size, first quality, Rubbers and Rubber Boots for men, women and children at new low prices.ity make the average contribution a moderate sum.The bulk of the taxes is expended on the salaries of the teachers.These salaries are not excessive.While much progress has been made in the last twenty-five years in respect to teachers\u2019 salaries, the standards are still less than they should be, and it would be a regrettable retrogression to lower them now.So much for the practical side of the question.But I have spoken above of the lifting of the clouds of depression.They will lift, and perhaps sooner than is expected.All history, all economic history, goes to show that the worst depressions are followed by great revivals, When the clouds lift, we must be prepared intellectually for the expanded activities which are to follow.All Canada, including the Province of Quebec, will have its share in the world revival.What we shall make of the newer conditions will depend largely upon our educational preparation for them.If, during the Great War, we were advised to keep the home fires burning, so now we shall be wise to keep the schools more active than ever, rather than to slacken our efforts in respect to them.It is à time for courage.CYRILLE F.DELAGE, Superintendent Rockburn Mrs.Henry of Vancouver was the guest for a few days last week of her parents, Mr.and Mrs.John Oliver.Mrs.Dustin, who has been living for some time with her brother, Mr.Henderson, has on account of ill- health, moved to the home of her daughter, Mrs.W.Hoyer.Mr.and Mrs.S.Black and Mr.Harry Arthur attended the funeral last Tuesday in Clarenceville of Mrs.Wm.McCormick.Mrs.Arthur and Mrs.R.Tannahill had been with their sister, Mrs.McCormick, for some few weeks previous to her death as she had suffered from a long and painful illness, Mrs, McCormick was a daughter of Mr.and Mrs.Henry Farquhar and by her quiet, industrious and happy disposition had made many friends in Rockburn, who tender the bereaved husband and family their sympathy.Miss Campbell's Recipe for Cup Cakes 1§ cup butter 2 cups pastry flour 1 cup sugar (or 1% cups 2 eggs bread flour) 14 teaspoon vanilla 3 teaspoons Magic extract Baking Powder 1{ teaspoon salt 1 cup milk Cream butter thoroughly: add sugar a little at a time, beating well.Add yolks of eggs and vanilla;

Page 4 The first of the series of Barn Demonstrations being put on under the auspices of the Howick-Hunting- don Ayrshire Breeders\u2019 Club was held on the farm of M.Dosithé Thibert, St.Etienne de Beauharnois, on Thursday, March 17th.The weather was very favorable and a crowd of some ninety-one people turned out for the occasion.Mr.Gosselin, Agronome for Beau- harnois County, opened the proceedings and after a few remarks explaining the object of the meeting, called on Mr.Frank Pewtress the Ayrshire Fieldman to point out some of the main points to look for in the selection of a dairy cow.Mr, Pew- tress used as his subject lesson a two year old heifer that is just finishing a record of over nine thousand pounds milk.Following this a class of dry cows were drawn out, and some twenty- two young men and boys took part in the judging competition.Mr.Douglas Ness, Vice-Pres.of the Club, M.Lagagé, assistant Agronome for Chateauguay Co.together with Mr.Gosselin and Pewtress formed the committee to place the class.Before the final placings were given, the older men were given an opportunity to express their opinions the result being that every animal in the class had supporters for first place.Mr.Pewtress then placed the class and explained the reasons why the committee had selected them in this order.A lvely discussion followed, many questions being asked and answered.Mr.Gosselin then addressed the meeting explaining the Government Bull Policy, and urged the farmers to use pure bred sires in their herds.He then announced the prize winners in the competition, which were as follows: 1.Florien Vinet, 95 points.2.Remi, Poirier, 80 points.3.Aurele Maheu.4, Albert Faubert.5.Medard Daoust.The first prize winner Mr.Vinet placed the cows right and wrote a very good set of reasons.Mr.Pewtress spoke again complimenting Mr.Thibert on the splendid condition of his herd, urging more of those present to follow Mr.Thi- bert's example and get going with pure bred Ayrshires.He also pointed out that with the present high duty on grade cattle, how much better the export market was for pure breds.Mr.Thibert procured nearly all his foundation stock from the Thorncroft herd of Mr.E.C.Budge, and is at present using a bull from this herd.R.O.P.work has also been carried on in the herd for several years, several good records having been made.Mr.Douglas Ness also spoke briefly, after which a hearty vote of thanks was accorded Mr.Thibert.The Turcot Barn Demonstration The second of these meetings took place on the farm of Mr.G.Turcot, at St.Chrysostome on Friday, March 18th.Despite the fact that the roads were in very bad condition, and the weather anything but favorable some forty-five people were on hand for the occasion.Mr.Turcot has a good grade herd \u201cheaded by a pure bred Ayrshire bull.Pure bred sires have been used in this herd for a number of years.the result being a herd of high class grades.Proceedings here were under the direction of Mr.Lagaçé, assistant Agronome for Chateauguay Co.and Mr.Pewtress, assisted by Messrs.Earl and Douglas Ness.A very typey, flashy colored cow with a splendid udder was selected for Mr.Pewtress to talk on, after which the class for the competition was duly numbered and pointed out.As the weather was too cold to work outside, the cows had to be left in - their stalls.The class was again a dry cow class, and was a good one.The first and second placings being quite close, the third and fourth being more \"easily selected.Eighteen boys took part in the competition and several good papers * were turned in.After the class had been placed Mr.\u2018Pewtress explained why the Committee placed them as they did.This \u201cbrought forth considerable discussion and a good many questions were ask- \"Prize winners in the St.Chrysos- ; A Snapshot of ROBERT JARRETT , 68 15 Months Le PRIZE WINNER NOW-\u2014ence despaired of I \u201cYesterday,\u201d writes Mrs.J.A.Jarrett of Scarborough Bluffs, Ont, \u201cmy fifteen months old son won second prize over more than two hundred other boy babies of the same age in the Canadian National Exhibition Baby Show.When he was five weeks old Eagle Brand saved his life.He was half starved and nearly drove _ Me crazy with his crying.\u201d \u201c If you are unable to nurse re baby, send for Baby elfare literature, using the \u201c coupon below.FREE!

took the herd sire out for inspection.Mr.Lagaçé ssked the Fieldman to comment on this animal which he did.After according Mr.Turcot a very hearty vote of thanks for the use of his herd, and for the amount of trouble he had gone to in preparing things for this demonstration, the meeting dispersed.J.M.Wallace Barn Demonstration The third of these meetings took place at Athelstan on Saturday, Mar.19th, on Fairview Farm, the home of J.M.Wallace & Sons.Weather and road conditions were against us again, however between sixty and seventy people turned up.As was the case at the two former meetings the conditions were ideal for the demonstration.Much credit is due the younger members of the Wallace family for the fine condition of cattle and barns, as Mr.Wallace himself has been laid up most of the winter.We are pleased to report Lowever that he is much improved in health and able to be around again.Mr.Gilbert McMillan, Pres.of the K.-H.Club took charge of affairs here.The secretary, Mr.A.H.Taylor, and directors J.P.Cavers and H.Wilson were also on hand.Mr.McMillan took one of the good R.O.P.cows of the herd and explained to the younger folks some of the main points to look for when making comparisons.He also pointed out a number of the good points to look for in a dairy cow.A class of fourteen boys and eight girls took part in the competition.The class here being two year old heifers in milk.These had all calved at about the same time and were therefore at much the same stage as regards udder development.When drawn out this proved quite à hard class.However Messrs.Mc- Millan and Pewtress after looking them over both decided on the same placing.Mr.Cavers was asked to look them over and he reported the same placing as the other members of the committee.The papers being collected, Mr.Carl \u2018Wheeler.Dairy Promoter and F, Pew- tress, made the awards, while Mr.McMillan placed the class and gave the reasons for so doing.As there were prizes given for both boys

on reasons.A prize of one year's subscription to The Huntingdon Gleaner, was offered for the person guessing the nearest to the official record of one of the cows of the herd.This was won by Mr.W.R.Wilson who came within three pounds of being correct.Mr.Wilson guessed 11,500 lbs.The official record being 11,503 lbs.The pure bred Ayrshire bull calf which was donated by Mr.Wallace to be

his kindness in putting his herd at the disposal of the Club for the occasion, after which the meeting broke up.feeling that a very interesting and instructive afternoon had been spent.The Howick-Huntingdon Club wish to extend their thanks to all the merchants and others of these different places who have so kindly donated the prizes for these several competitions.We further wish to state that if the remaining competitions bring out prize winners, with as good papers as those already held, the person winning the Bois de la Roche calf on the occasion of the Dairymen\u2019s convention is going to have to work for it.DECORATING EASTER BREAKFAST TABLE For the Easter breakfast party and Easter egg hunt, the table's decoration is all important.At each place ghould be some

much better to do some solid thinking, some constructive planning.Worry is a negative sort of thing.A crisis needs something positive, and hope is always a better standby in time of trouble than despair.Hope at least prepares us to be ready to greet the unknown tomorrow with a willingness and a preparedness to turn to advantage whatever may turn up.\u2014Exchange.School Report Forms for

HUNTINGDON GLEANER Howick-Huntingdon Ayrshire Breeders Club Barn Demonstrations Hemmingford, Que.March 21st, 1932 The Editor of the Huntingdon Gleaner, Dear Sir:\u2014 Myself and some of my friends hold very strong views in regard to the vote brought on in Huntingdon County last week by the County Council to repeal the prohibitory bylaw.In the first place the vote should not have been brought on.Let well enough alone.In the second place the women of our County should have had a vote in this matter as they and the children are the ones to suffer most from the liquor traffic.A man comes home drunk, beats his wife, puts her out in the cold and destroys everything in the house.Surely this is a terrible thing; women with drunken husbands are to be pitied, and surely they should have a chance to vote against the cursed use of liquor in our County and protect herself and her children from the hardships and misery it causes in the home.Her children are deprived of the food and clothing they need to properly develop their bodies and protect them from the cold.Surely the women and children of our land should have better treatment than this.The biggest asset any County has is its children, and if we parents do not try to protect them from this cursed thing we have come far short of doing our duty.Men who vote to open up these hell-holes to ruin our boys and girls cannot have a very high standard of life.Some say it is no business of ours if the other fellow drinks or not.Another says, \u201cI can take a drink or leave it alone.\u201d This is a poor argument for every drunkard has said the same thing at some step or another in his downward career.Again a drunk man is a menace to the public.How many automobile accidents are due to the driver drinking.One drink is sufficient to make a reckless driver out of a careful one.People are being killed every day by the drinking of lquor, and I believe the one who sells the cursed stuff is equally guilty with the one who commits the crime.People who drink are crying out about hard times, but they seem to always have money to buy whiskey with, but they cannot buy the necessary food for their wife and children.We see children born of drunken parents who are not mentally or physically developed as they ought to be or would have been had their parents been sober.I have known large families who were all mentally and physically deficient and the doctor stated it was due to the father being so constantly under the influence of liquor.Surely these reasons are sufficient to tell any voter his duty to his fellowmen.The man who has voted for whiskey has voted for the ruin of the boys and girls and the downfall of our County.I would rather vote against whiskey and be beaten than vote for it and win.Yours truly,

I can't stand it much longer!\u201d The older girl was so worried that & little later she slipped downstairs and made a telephone call.Next morning she announced she was not ing to the office.\u201cIt's all right,\u201d she assured Norma.\u201cThey aren't expecting me.Besides if I stay away a few days they'll appreciate me more when I'm there.You and I are going out of town for the week-end.\u201d \u201cChris\u2014!\" \u201cNow don't say anything! You might just as well spare yourself the breath.We're going to take a run down to Rosebriar over the weekend.Honestly I need the rest.Norma, and I won't go without you.\" Norma said steadily.\u201cYou can't fool me.You're doing this because of \u201cWell, what if I am?I'm doing it for myself, too.Don't you want to get away for a couple of days of peace and quiet?Don't you want to get away from those reporters?You have given your story and there's nothing more for you to tell them Anyhow I called Mr.Flynn last night and he said we should go.\u201d \u201cBut it will be expensive.\u201d \u201cI've got the money.Now snap into it, Norma! Let's see if we can catch the 9.30 train\u2014\" The week-end at Rosebriar proved 8 blessed interlude.It was a small place, popular as a resort because it was on a lake and because there were two excellent hotels.Out of season the rates were not high.There were few guests at the Rosebriar Inn where the two girls stopped.Norma and Chris slept late.took long walks and spent two lazy afternoons doing nothing but gazing out at the dazzling blue of the water.They did not even read the Sunday newspapers.They took the last train back to Marlboro and arrived at the apartment a little after eight p.m.Fastened in the door were several memorandums to call Bob Farrell.Norms telephoned and Bob's voice came back to her.\u201cI'll be right over.Lots of things to tell you.\u201d He was there within half an hour.Bob congratulated Norma on her rested and improved appearance and then launched the big news.\u201cThere's been plenty of excitement the last few days,\u201d Farrell said.\u201cDid you see the papers?No?Well, then there's a lot for you to hear.Things have been happening! There's going to be an investigation\u2014that's the main thing.Yes.the governor got busy and put on the pressure.Wellington's been named to take charge.Oh, he\u2018s square! Wonderful lawyer.There's been about a dozen more cases in the newspapers too.A lot of girls now at Mount Florence are demanding new hearings\u2014lawyers on the job, of course.The big thing though happened today.Flynn got \u2018Whitey' Black, the stool pigeon.to spill everything! He's accused a dozen members of the vice squad of framing girls and told how he had part in it himself.Black is the fellow whose picture you saw in Flynn's office.Remember, Norma?Some of these fee-splitting lawyers are going to get it next.Say.but the way Flynn lined this thing up is marvelous! He's known about Black for months.Been collecting material.getting it together and just holding back until the psychological time to break it.Black hasn't told half of all he knows yet\u2014!\" \u201cBut, Bob,\u201d Norma put in.\u201cWhat's it all going to lead to?How is it going to help me to get Mark back?\u201d \u201cWhy, dont you see?No court in the world would have the nerve to hold those old charges against you in the face of all this uproar! Landers \u2014he's the juvenile court judge and he'll hold the hearing\u2014wouldn't dare do it.Unless I'm mistaken the public welfare department is going to scramble to keep its own skirts clean.They'll never undertake to get Mark away from you permanently now.Never! Of course you'll have to testify when the investigation opens.\u201d \u201cTestify?You mean at a trial?You mean Il have to tell everybody what happened?Oh, but I couldn't.\u201d \u201cYou said youd do it, Norma.Don't you remember that I warned you?I told you it wasn't going to be easy but you said you'd go through with it.\u201cBut I didn't know it would be like that! I thought it was just talking to Mr.Flynn.I didn\u2019t know you meant everybody!\u201d \u201cMr.Flynn will be there all right.And it won't be any harder talking before Judge Wellington than it was to Flynn.Why, Norma, you can't back down now! You've got to go through with it!\u201d Chris put her arm around the other girl.\u201cWe're all going to stand by you, honey.But Bob's right.You couldn\u2019t refuse to go on now.\u201d Norma turned away.When she faced about a moment later she said unsteadily, \u201cI'I\u2014I'll try to do it!\u201d Public indignation, manifested by protests from civic groups and women\u2019s clubs, denunciations from pulpits and platforms, swelled into a rising tide during the next seven days.The onrush broke about the heads of certain city officials.It erashed against the Marlboro police department.The agitation was responsible for unprecedented promptness in launching the official investigation.Lafe Flynn was not alone among city poli- ticlans to see the possibilities of such @ scandal.Apparently Flynn's oppo- sition\u2014assured that the affair could not be hushed\u2014wanted it cleared away and forgotten as soon as pos- - sible before the fall election.Norma went back to her desk in Stuart's office on Monday.Bhe evolved the formula of answering all Qquestioners with \u201cI have nothing to eay.\u201d It was a hard and trying week but she managed to live through it.\u201cWhen this is over,\u201d Norma told herself repeatedly, \u201cthey'll have to have Mark!\u201d That was the lit- ail her prayers.\u201cThey'll have to let me have Mark!\u201d Marlboro.She tore back the flap and drew out a folded sheet.\u201cWhy\u2014there's no signature! Look, Chris!\u201d There were two paragraphs on the typewritten page.The unsigned letter read: \u201cDear Miss Travers: This is to warn you that if you tell any more to the newspapers you will be out of the picture.You are being watched night and day.\u201cIf you go to the Wellington investigation you'll never live to get out of the courtroom.Watch your step and keep your trap shut and nobody will hurt you.If you disregard this varning you'll regret it.\u201d The rest of the page was blank.Norma raised startled eyes as she read the last words.\u201cWho\u2014who in the world\u2014?\" she began.They went up the two flights of stairs.Chris put her key in the lock and turned the knob, It was not yet six o'clock but the apartment was dusty.Chris pressed the electric light switch at the side of the door before entering.She gave a quick, searching glance about the room.\u201cThere's nobody here,\u201d she said almost as though she had suspected there would be.Norma closed the door and put the packages she had been carrying on the table.She held up the letter again.\u201cBut isn't this strange, Chris?\u201d she asked in a puzzled voice, \u201cWho om earth could have written such a thing?\" \u201cDid you lock the door?\u201d the other zir] said sharply.\u201cWhy.of course not! You don't mean\u2014you don't think there's anything to be frightened about?\u201d Quickly Chris crossed the room, turned the night lock on the door.She turned and faced Norma defensively.\u201cI don't know what to think,\u201d she said, \u201cand anyhow thinking isn't safe! Don't you realize that three- fourths of the corruption of Marlboro is linked in this thing?Of course I'm frightened.They might do anything! Anything! These judges who have been letting criminals get by\u2014the men higher up\u2014oh.Norma, I was a fool to let you do this\u2014!\" Curiously enough it was Chris instead of Norma who was thrown into panic by the threatening note.Norma insisted the letter was harmless, sent by some practical joker with a distorted sense of humor or by someone suffering from hallucinations.To all this Chris protested: \u201cI hope you're right! Heaven knows I hope you're right! But we're not going to take chances!\u201d Half a dozen times during the evening Chris thought she heard sounds in the hall.She insisted on leaving a light burning when they went to bed.In the morning she looked worn out and as though she had slept little.\u201cBut, Chris,\u201d Norma protested, \u201cI don't see why you should worry so about that letter.If anybody wanted to harm me they wouldn't warn me about it.would they?Of course the letter\\doesn't mean anything!\" \u201cWill you believe it means something if Bob says so?\" \u201cHe won't.Bob would say the very things I've been telling you.\u201d \u201cWell, I want to show it to him.Will you let me take the letter this morning and show it to Bob?\u201d \u201cOf course.Let's see\u2014what did I do with it?\u201d The message was produced and folded away in Chris\u2019 handbag.When the two girls left for the office it was Chris whose eyes had dark shadows and whose cheeks were too white.As they boarded the street car she noticed a man wearing a gray cap across the street.He had been watching them.Chris did not mention the man to Norma.The day in Frederick Stuart's office passed just as its predecessors.At noon Norma had sandwiches and coffee sent up from the first floor lunch counter.She did not like to go out these days because she was sure to be stared at.A boy brought in the afternoon newspapers and laid them on her desk.Norma scanned the first pages.\"District Attorney Flynn was gouted for almost a column.The Wellington prosecution was to open next Wednesday.Nothing in the newspapers the girl had nol known.A heated denial from the chief of police that anything was wrong in his department followed the Flynn interview.There was a picture of \u201cWhitey\u201d Black printed under the HOT CROSS Order your supply now Easter Cakes, Pies, Pastry Packed full of goodness.Tasty, yes, and gee they look as good as they taste.How about a box of choco lates?Isn\u2019t someone expecting one?Z.Rousselle Phone 60 , single word \u201cWitness.\u201d The caption explained that Black was to present evidence In the investigation into activities of the vice squad next week.Norma put the newspapers aside distastefully.A little later she heard footsteps and looked up.Chris Saunders stood in the doorway.\u2018Oh, Chris! You startled me!\u201d Her roommate entered the office, \u201cAnybody here?\u201d she asked in a low voice.Norma shook her head.\u201cMr.Stuart has gone to lunch.\u201d Chris sank to a chair beside the other girl.\u201cI've just been talking to Bob,\u201d she said, dropping her voice almost to a whisper.\u201cHe's taken the letter and gone to see Flynn.It's what I thought, Norma! Whitey Black's been getting anonymous threats in the mail, too.They've hidden him away somewhere and the police are guarding him.In spite of all he's said about them the police have got to protect him.If anything happened to him now it would be the worst possible indictment of the public safety department.Bob's coming back as soon as he can.He sald you're not to leave the office until he gets here!\" \u201cBut, Chris\u2014!\" \u201cI can't stay any longer, honey.1 have got to get back.Bob agrees with me it isn't safe for you to stay on at the apartment.He'll tell you what to do.I'm not going to stay there either.I'm going to Minnie Baker's.\u201d A figure loomed in the doorway and Chris started.It was only Frederick Stuart, back from his lunch hour.Stuart passed on into his private office and Chris arose to go.\u201cBob said for you to wait for him,\u201d she reminded Norma just before she disappeared.After she was gone Norma stared for several moments at the blank sheet of paper in her typewriter.Presently her fingers began tapping the keys again.It was not Bob Farrell who was Norma's next caller, but a middle- aged woman dressed in brown.She gave the name \u201cMrs.Everett\u201d and asked to see Norma's employer.Five minutes after the woman had entered Stuart's office the buzzer rang.Notebook in hand, Norma answered.Stuart was leaning back in his desk chair and Mrs.Everett sat facing him, \u201cCome in, Miss Travers,\u201d Stuart said.When she had closed the door he continued.\u201cMrs.Everett has come from District Attorney Flynn's office.She has told me that because of the importance of your testimony at the hearing next week the district attorney thinks your whereabouts should be concealed.Mrs.Everett has come to take you to a place where you will be safe and where you will be assured of freedom from annoyances of all sorts.Here is the message from Flynn.\u201d Stuart handed Norma a sheet of paper on which a dozen lines were written.She recognised the district attorney's signature.The note said that the bearer was an accredited representative and that she would explain the purpose of her visit.\u201cI think we should leave at once,\u201d Mrs.Everett told the girl.\u201cI have a car downstairs waiting and here is a wrap and hat for you.\u201d She held up the coat she had been carrying over her arm.\u201cSee how it fits,\u201d she added.In the gray coat and hat with heavy rimmed spectacles over her eyes Norma could hardly recognize herself.The elevator operator did not give her a second glace as she followed Mrs.Everett into the car.The two women swept through the ground floor lobby and out on the street.A taxicab that had been waiting a little to the left drew up before the entrance.Mrs.Everett and Norma stepped inside.The girl did not recognize the address she heard given to the driver but presently they were skimming out of down-town trafic and heading west.\u2018They drove along well-kept residential streets, past massive apartments.\u201cIs it far?\u201d Norma asked.\u201cNot much farther.We're almost there.\u201d The taxi halted before a five- story apartment building.Mrs.Everett paid the driver and led the way inside.\u201cMy rooms are on the second floor,\u201d she said.\u201cI usually walk instead of taking the elevator.\u201d They went up the carpeted stairway and down a hall.Before one of the doorways Mrs.Everett halted.It was a pleasant.roomy apartment Nerves on edge.A head that throbs.You can't stop work, but You can stop the pain\u2014in a hurry.Aspirin will do it every time.Take two or three tablets, a swallow of water, and you\u2019re soon comfortable.There's nothing half-way about the action of Aspirin.You will always et complete relief when you take les.These tablets should be in ev: shop, office, and home.Ready to ieve any sudden ache or pain, from a grumbling tooth to lumbago.Don\u2019t suffer with that neuralgia, ASPIRIN which opened to them.The suite contained a living room, two bedrooms, kitchen and bath.\u201cI hope youre going to be comfortable here,\u201d the woman said, smiling.\u201cIt's my own place.Would you like to rest a little before dinner?This is your room and you'll find a dressing gown and night things in the clothes closet.There's powder and cold cream on the dressing ta- ble\u2014\" She chaitered on as though the girl were an old friend come to pay a social visit.\u201cMrs.Everett,\u201d Norma said, \u201cwon't you tell me who you are and how Mr.Flynn happened to send me here?The woman smiled.\u201cI've worked with Mr.Flynn for years,\" she said.\u201cHe doesn't want you to be worried or frightened before the investigation next week.Of course I don't think there's anything really to be frightened about.Maybe you'd feel more comfortable if I told you that your friend Bob Farrell is going to call this evening.\u201d \u201cBob's coming here?\" Mrs.Everett nodded.\u201cYou've plenty of time for a warm bath.\u201d she suggested.\u201cWhy don't you take one and then lie down for a little while.With such a nice young man coming you'll want to look your prettiest.\u201d \u201cI am tired,\u201d Norma agreed.\u201cYou are awfully kind, Mrs.Everett.I guess I'll follow your advice.\u201d A little later, warm and glowing rom the tub, Norma faced the mir- or of her dressing table.Why did ier heart beat so rapidly at the hought of seeing Bob?Norma and Mrs.Everett had just .eft the table when Bob Farrell arrived.He came in smiling.\u201cDid you think you'd been kidnapped, Norma?\u201d he asked.\u201cI just dropped in to assure you that you haven't.Well\u2014I should say you're going to be very comfortable here!\u201d His glance took in the pleasantly furnished living room.Mrs.Everett heid forward an open box of cigarets.\u201cOh, I think we'll be comfortable,\u201d she said.\u201cNorma and ['ve been discovering that we have several interests in common.We both like Kathleen Norris\u2019 books and I have her newest one.I'm going to send down for some more books tomorrow so we'll have plenty of reading material.Then Norma's offered to help me with some curtains\u2014\" Her voice trailed on.Mrs.Everett evidently enjoyed talking.A cheerful, comfortable person herself, she was anxious that others should feel the same.She stayed with the young couple for 15 minutes, suddenly remembered some task and disappeared.Norma sat on the davenport.the glow of the lamp light turning her hair to pure gold.Her face was in shadow and the care-worn look, the lines that had appeared in that young face during recent months seemed to disappear almost by magic.Bob watched her\u2019 for a moment, crossed the room and dropped to a seat beside her.When he spoke the young man's eyes were leveled directly ahead.\u201cNorma,\u201d he said, \u201cthere's something I've been wanting to talk to you about.I don't know just how to begin\u2014\" The girl gave him a quick glance.\u201cIf there's anything at all I can do\u201d she said.\u201cI hope you'll tell me.I'll never be able to repay all the kind things you've done for me.\u201d \u201cNonsense.I haven't done anything and there's nothing for you to repay.I don't want you to feel that way.There's a question I want to ask you, Norma, and your answer is going to mean a lot to me.It's going to help me decide something\u2014something terribly important! Oh, I know this is no time to talk about such things but it's the first chance I've had to see you alone in weeks.I hope you'll un- derstand\u2014\u201d \u2018There was a step in the doorway.Mrs.Everett stood there, smiling as usual.She came forward, carrying a letter.\u201cI wonder, Mr.Farrell,\u201d she said, \u201cif you would drop this letter in the mail box when you go out?I'm anxious for it to get off tonight.The box is just in front of the entrance in case you didn't notice it.They make the next collection at 9.30.\u201d Bob said he would be glad to post the letter, took it and slipped it in his coat pocket.Mrs.Everett settled herself and began talking about the Spring Music Festival to begin the following week.Norma understood the woman was neuritis, rheumatism, etc.; or lose any time because of colds or sore throat.Get some Aspirin and just follow those proven directions for instant relief, Aspirin tablets cost very little, especially if you buy them by the bottle.Any doctor will tell you they are harmless.They don't hurt the heart.They don\u2019t upset the stomach.So take them as often as you have the least need of their quick comfort.Take enough for complete results.On sale at drug stores everywhere, Madein Canada.trying to keep the conversation from drifting to the ordeal of the coming trial but Bob appeared restless.Presently he looked at his wrist watch.\u201cTime for me to be going,\u201d he announced.\u201cI won't forget the letter, Mrs.Everett.\u201d With a hand on the door knob he paused to say to Norma, \u201cI'll try to get out another evening soon.Take good care of yourself.Well, good night!\u201d Alone in her room a little later Norma puzzled over the interrupted conversation.Another proposal?Was that what Bob had meant when he said, \u201cThere's a question I want to ask you.\u201d Another proposal from Bob?Norma slipped out of her garments and into the borrowed night gown.She sat on the edge of the bed and considered this possibility.Could Bob Farrell whom she had three times refused to marry, whom she had treated so shamefully when she eloped with Mark, still care for her enough to want to marry her?Could Bob love her that way?\u201cHe's the best person I've ever known,\u201d Norma told herself.\u201cNo\u2014 one of the best.Bob isn't any better than Chris.They're both wonderful.Nobody ever had finer friends than I have.\u201d But could she marry Bob Farrell?It was a long while before Norma dropped to sleep.She awoke in surprise to find herself in strange surroundings.Then she remembered where she was.When Mrs.Everett tapped on the bedroom door to announce that breakfast was ready Norma had finished dressing.The day that followed and the ones that came after it were curious.Neither Norma or Mrs.Everett left the apartment.Morning and evening newspapers were delivered at their door.Every day Mrs.Everett telephoned orders to the grocery and meat store.Sometimes they played WEY nT BARN au Auss Ubi Ae J pore NAGY *Never dissolve lye in hot water.The action of the lye {itself heats the water.the radio and it brought them the only voices they heard except their own.It was a curious existence, being in the world and not being in it.Sunday passed exactly as the week days except that Chris and Bob arrived together for a brief visit.There was no chance for Norma to talk to either of them alone, Monday passed: slowly and Tuesday dragged.A package arrived, sent by Chris.It contained Norma's suit and some other clothing.The suit had long since lost its elegance.It was the one Norma had worn on her honeymoon journey a year and a half before.She was to wear it in the courtroom next day.It was curious that the girl scarcely gave a thought to the threat No other food you can buy will give = much delicious nourishment for little f cost as CROWN BRAND CORN SYRUP - the famous economy food.Every grocer sells Sead 10c for \u201cCanada\u2019s Prize Wednesday, March 23rd, 1932 against her life.She had never taken that anonymous letter seriousiv.Tuesday afternoon Mrs.Everett coached Norma about tue tria:.one explained the proceedings, told the girl what to expect.If Mrs.Everett had seemed a pleasant, talkative housewive previously now Norma understood that she was far more than that.She knew the facts of the Wellington investigation as well as the district attorney himself\u2014or appear- to.\u201cI'll be right with you, child,\u201d she told the girl repeatedly.\u201cThere's nothing for you to be afraid of and I'll be right behind you.\u201d Norma strove to conceal her nervousness.She was nervous\u2014no use to deny it!

Oh, could she go through all that nightmare again?Twenty-four hours\u2014! A policeman was at Norma's elbow.\u201cStand back!\u201d he roared.\u201cD'you hear me?\u2014Stapd back!\u201d The crowd on the sidewalk edged backward.Through the narrow passageway the girl felt herself being pushed and pulled forward.The door of the waiting taxi opened.Norma stumbled inside, sank back against the leather cushions.\u201cChris!\u201d she moaned.\u201cOh, oh, Chris\u2014!\u201d The older girl's arms were around her.\u201cBut it\u2019s all over, honey! There's nothing to cry about now.It's all over.\u201d Norma's head was pillowed against Chris\u2019 shoulder.She clung to the other girl helplessly.Norma was weeping tears of exhaustion.She drew far back into the dark corner of the cab.\u201cI want to go home, Chris!\u201d moaned.\u201cHome!\u201d The cab had pulled away from the curb.\u201cMrs.Everett said you were to go to her apartment\u2014\" Chris began but Norma shook her head.\u201cI want to go home!\u201d she repeated.\u201cAway from all those people.Do not make me go back there again! Please take me home!\u201d \u201cWhy, of course\u2014of course if you feel that way about it! You don have to go any place you don't want to!\u201d Chris leaned forward, gave the driver the address of the apartment the girls shared.Norma's sobbing continued for several moments.Presently she was quiet, rubbed her eyes with a handkerchief.\u201cEveryone thought you were wonderful,\u201d Chris said in a low voice, \u201cYou didn't see the newspapers, did you?They say it's only the beginning of a tremendous clean-up.They say the investigation is going on until it reaches the men who've been making all the graft.\u2018Whitey\u2019 Black's going to go on the stand tomorrow\u2014\" She stopped, catching sight of the other girl's face.Norma said unsteadily, \u201cPlease don't talk about it! 1\u2014I don\u2019t want to even think of this afternoon.Do you know what I'm going to do, Chris?I made up my mind while I was waiting in that room in the courthouse.\u201d \u201cWhat are you going to do?\u201d \u201cI'm going away!\u201d Norma said the words almost fiercely.\u201cI'm going away where people won't know me.Here\u2014oh, I'd never be able to look at anyone again\u2014\" \u201cYou need a good rest.That's what you need,\u201d Chris said gently.The cab left them before the familiar brick building.Norma and Chris went inside and climbed the two flights of stairs.The door opened to reveal the shabby, homelike room.Norma dropped into the big chair.She leaned back, sighing.\u201cEvery time anything important has happened in my life,\u201d she said, \u201cI've come back to this place.I thought when I married Mark I was leaving it for good.I came back though when he went away and I came back the night I heard about the divorce.After the baby was born we came here from the hospital.It seems I'm always coming back to this room.That's why I wanted to be here tonight! It's sort of a comforting place.Don't you think so?\u201d \u201cIt is to me,\u201d Chris agreed.\u201cDo you know it\u2019s almost four years since that afternoon we looked at it and agreed to take it?\u201d Norma said idly.\u201cA lot can happen in four years.\u201d She arose and took off her hat and coat.she \u2018The older girl was watching her.\u201cYou don't mind being alone for a little while, do you?\" she asked carelessly.\u201cWe'll need things from the delicatessen for dinner.Then I think I should telephone Mrs.Everett that you've decided to stay here tonight.If you don\u2019t mind I'l run out and do it now.\u201d \u201cWhy, no.I don't mind.\u201d Chris picked up her pocketbook.\u201cI won't be long,\u201d she said as she turned and opened the door.It seemed to Norma that Chris took a long time for those errands.The delicatessen was in the same block, the telephone on the first floor of the building.Ten minutes should have been enough for both errands but when 10 minutes had passed Chris had not returned.Norma moved about restlessly.She slipped out of her suit, bathed her face and freshened it with powder.Then she got into a house frock.She was lying on the davenport, eyes closed but wide awake, when there was a knock at the door.Norma arose to answer it.She thought, \u201cIt's Chris.She must have forgotten her key.\u201d CHAPTER XLVIII There was no light in the hall and the room was in the dusk.The figure outlined in the doorway was indistinct.One glance told Norma that it was not Chris.\u201cOh!\u201d she said, \u201cI\u2014I thought it was someone else!\u201d She stepped forward and at the same moment the man in the doorway moved, Norma could see his face more clearly.Suddenly she felt as though the floor were sinking beneath her.Her heart pounded terrifically and something hot and burning caught in her throat.\u201cMark!\u201d she cried hysterically.\u201cIt isn't you! Mark\u2014?\u201d \u201cI hope I didn't startle you.\u201d Mark's voice! Oh, but there was no doubt of it.Mark staring at her as though he, too, could not believe his eyes.\u201cI telephoned, Norma, but they told me you weren't here.I couldn't wait any longer and so I came\u2014\" \u201cBut it can\u2019t be! It can\u2019t be you, Mark!\u201d The girl swayed.She put out one hand felt Mark's arm about her.A long way off she seemed to hear his voice.He was saying something about cold water.What was that blackness before her eyes?How was it that Mark was there and she could not see him?\u201d \u201cMark!\u201d the girl cried again in a trembling voice.*\u201cYou\u2014have you come back?\u201d He helped her to the davenport rested her head against the pillows.Then she felt something cold on her forehead.Mark was holding a cup to her lips, urging her to drink.\u201cI'm all right,\u201d Norma protested.She could see him now.Across the room the table lamp was burning: Mark was on his knees beside the davenport.His face was close to Norma's.\u201cBetter now?\u201d he asked.The girl's deeply fringed eyelids widened.She said in a voice barely above a whisper, \u201cHow did you get here?\u201d \u201cT'll tell you.I'll tell you everything just as soon as you're feeling better.Its not much of a story! Might have known the shock would do something like this.Idiot that I am! Here\u2014can I fix those pillows more comfortably?\u201d Norma shook her head.\u201cIt's as though I'm dreaming.\u201d she said softly.\u201cYou'll go away when I wake up.won't you?\u201d \u201cI won't go.\u201d Mark reassured her \u201cunless you send me.I didnt know you'd been sick, Norma.You're thinner, You look pale.too.\u201d As the girl struggled to rise he added.\u201cDon't move.Just lie there and rest a little longer.\u201d Norma objected.There was nothing wrong with her, she said.She wanted to know where Mark had come from?What had he been doing?\u201cI\u2014I've never heard anything about you,\u201d she said, \u201csince you went eway.I didn't get any letters\u2014\u201d The young man sat facing her, \u201cIt's a pretty rotten story.\u201d he said sober- Readers of the Huntingdon Gleaner who followed THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER Charles E.Merrill, Veteran Guide Writes Romance of Great Woods with such interest \u201cGuilty Lips\u201d will welcome the romance \u2018Star of the North\u201d by Chas.E.Merrill, veteran guide and trapper.The famous guide has proved himself a write of genuine skill and literary charm and has thoroughness of ability in the realm of fiction.All last winter, while the winds howled around the snug home on Chateaugay Lake, he was working on the story.Not often does one find a person whose life has been spent so entirely in the out-of-door as has been that of Guide Merrill who at the same time has so philosophical and penetrating an outlook on life and who has ability to express himself forcefully, clearly and with literary skill.His story is that of Rand Goodwyn.We meet him first as a child, not long after his parents had settled not many miles from the northern boundary of New York State, about 1845.We follow him, after the death of his father, through many thrilling experiences in the woods.He has early to take on the duties and responsibilities of a man.His love for Christie, a neighbour's daughter, develops naturally and beautifully, only to be threatened by his meeting with an equally charming French-Indian girl, Petol.But interesting though the story is, admirers of Guide Merrill will find fully as appealing his descriptions of animal and plant life in the great woods.ly.\u201cI ought to be ashamed to tell it to you\u2014and I am! Only I had to come to see you, Norma.I had to talk to you.All this that's been in the papers\u2014I didn't know anything about it until I got a letter from Hollis Stone.That was three weeks ago, I've been travelling ever since.\u2019 \u201cBut you didn\u2019t tell me where you have been.\u201d \u201cDidn't I?South America.Oh, I forgot\u2014of course you don't know.Norme, I came to tell you there's nothing I wouldn\u2019t do to erase the injustices you've been through, I was to blame for part of them.Oh.yes I was! Only a blind fool like myself would have believed the things the lawyer told me in Paris.I couldn\u2019t understand why you had not written\u2014\u201d \u201cBut I did write! So many letters!\u201d \u201cWhile I was in Paris?You wrote to me there?\u201d Norma nodded.Mark said bitterly.\u201cSo that's another way they tricked me! Well.that about makes it complete.I guess you've been glad to be rid of me all right.About as poor a specimen of husband as ever lived! T don't expect you to take me back.Norma.I didn\u2019t even come here with that hope.I only want to tell you I know you've been fine and square all along.I knew that even when I listened to their lies.\u201d For a burning instant their eyes met.It was Norma who was first to look away.\u201cIt's good of you to say that,\u201d she told him slowly.\u201cBut you musn't blame yourself for everything.I've made mistakes\u2014lots of them.\u201d more for me than anyone else in the world ever has.Those months with you were the happiest of my life and New Low Prices .greater speed and economy Beauharnois Electric Company Limited Valleyfield St.J Y, A v.00 A WAV, which makes cooking so economical.Let us show you the shining, durable porcelain finish which adds so much to their beauty and ease of cleaning.You'll be amazed to learn how cheaply you can own a modern Northern Remi Cy all make the new Northern Electric-Gurney Range the outstanding value of 1932.Nothing will so brighten up your kitchen \u2014 make cooking so easy, food so tasty \u2014 as a handsome new Northern Electric-Gurney Range.And - - never before in their history could you buy one at so low a price.Come in and see the exclusive Super-Speed burner Beauharnois Huntingdon much faster and more Electric-Gurney Range.He has an eye for all that is beautiful in the out-of- doors, and not a detail is too small to escape his notice.I threw that happiness away.\u201d Travers went on after a pause.\u201cSeems odd finding you here in the old apartment.I didn't know where to look for you.I telephoned because I thought Chris might be here.\u201d Norma said, \u201cI'm still living with Chris.\u201d Mark glanced about, noting the shabby furnishings.Obviously there was not much money here.\u201cI'm working in an office in the same building where Chris works,\" Norma explained.\u201cI'm secretary for a literary agent\u2014Frederick Stuart.But you haven't told me what you've been doing in South America.When did you go there?\u201d \u201cOver a year ago.I\u2014wel, I didn't want to come back when I thought you were gone.My father told me you'd ran away.I didn't know how to find you so I went to South America with an engineer I'd met in the copper mines.We've been working together ever since.Nice fellow, Allen\u2019s his name.You'd like him, Norma.I don\u2019t know anything about engineering but he's been teaching me.It\u2019s a wonderful country down there.I'm going back again.\u201d \u201cTo South America?\u201d Travers nodded.\u201cOh, I couldn't hang around here.Nothing for me to do in Marlboro.\u201d They talked of inconsequential things\u2014as men and women who have a great deal to say to each other so often do.Finally Mark arose.strode to the window and came back.\u201cNorma.\u201d he said.\u201cthere's some- He Charles E.Merrill and His Hunting Lodge thing else.I want to make a set allowance for you.As though it were alimony.It's been bothering me for months wondering if you had money, thinking you were working too hard.Besides it's only fair\u2014\" \u201cBut I couldn't take!\" the girl interrupted.\u201cI couldn't, Mark! It's kind of you but please don't say any more about it.\u201d He seemed disappointed.\u201cI want to tell you its my own money I'm talking about.I'm not rich but we're getting along fairly well.You see it was really you who taught me how to work.Norma.That's one of the things I'll always be indebted to you or.\u201d She smiled.\u201cAs a floorwalker in a department store?\u201d \u201cYes, as a floorwalker.Those weeks at Blossomdale's were good for me.\u201d Impulsively he added.\u201cWe used to have fun\u2014didn't we?\" Norma's smile disappeared.\u201cYes,\u201d she agreed.\u201cWe had fun.\u201d There was A pause.Travers fingered his hat.\u201cWell,\u201d he said, \u201cyou're tired and I shouldn't stay longer.I'm only here for a few days but I'd like to see you again before I go.\u201d \u201cI don't think we'd better, Mark.It's\u2014rather useless.\u201d \u201cYou mean you don't want to see me?\u201d \u201cSomething like that.Of course I wish you luck\u2014and lots of happiness.\u201d Abruptly he caught her hand.\u201cNorma\u2014!\" Travers began and stop- red abruptly.The door from the cor- rT re tree | A Great that whole period it 4 The Sun Life As Canada itself paid The \"Flu (1919) Company A Great Pestilence!

instant.Professor Brownell.of the New York Agricultural School.delivered the lectures.which were intensely interesting and dealt particularly with the \u201cApplication of the Discoveries of Mendel in Hereditary to the Cattle Breeders\u2019 Problems.\u201d This school was attended by W.J.Smellie, W.PF.McDonald, W.L.Carr, and Max J.Arthur, from this vicinity.A new regulation comes into effect in the State of New York on April 1st.the practical effect of which will be that all dairy cattle imported into that State from any outside territory.including of course Canada, will have to have passed the test for Bang Abortion Disease.Mr.Berne A.Pykre, Commissioner of the Department of Agriculture and Markets, for New York State, who handed out this order on February 20th, announces that this measure is being enforced to protect the herds from outside infection.Of course, herds which are certified free\" of the Disease by the Chief Livestock Sanitary Officials of their own territories, no test will be imposed on animals imported from such herds.Three animals, consisting of a \u201ctamily group\u201d in the Holstein herd of W.L.Carr.have recently qualified in the R.O.P.with the following records: Peerless Posch Pontiac, in the mature 365 day division produced 16,420 lbs.milk and 550 lbs.fat; her daughter Peerless Pride Sue, four year old.in 365 day division produced 13,382 lbs.milk, 467 lbs.fat; another daughter, Peerless Burke Keith, 3 year old, in 365 day division, produced 15.877 lbs.milk, 572 lbs.fat.There are in this herd three other milking females, daughters and grand-daughter of Peerless Posch Pontiac doing well; also two young heifers and two young bull calves, a son and grand-son of this cow.Mr.A.H.Hatch, Ludlow.Mass, has again visited our district and

Philadelphia, with a volume of cheers and enthusiastic acclamation which even exceeded the demonstration which followed the appearance of the newly elected president.Having taken the oath of office.Mr.Adams.in his inaugural address, spoke of his predecessor as one \u201cwho, by a long course of great action, regulated by prudence, justice, temperance, and fortitude, has merited the gratitude of his fellow citizens, commands the highest praises of foreign nations, and secured immortal glory with posterity.\u201d At the close of the ceremony.as Washington moved forward toward the door to retire, there was a rush from the gallery to the corridor that for a time threatened serious injury to many of the spectators in their eagerness to catch a last look of one who had so long been the object of public veneration.When Washington was in the street he waved his hat and returned the cheers of the multitude, his gray hair streaming in the wind.The crowd followed him to his door; there, turning round.his face assumed a grave and almost melancholy expression, his eyes were bathed in tears, his emotions were too great for utterance, and only by gestures could he dicate his thanks and convey his final blessing.- Legal Notice Canada.Province of Quebec, District of Montreal, No.65.In the matter of Richard Ouimet, farmer.De- wittville.Quebec, Authorized Assignor.Public

Montreal 6 Sale at 1 pm.Wednesday, March 23rd, 1932 Lived Over Two Days On Chocolate Bars Seven men who suffered exposure to bitter cold and subsisted on chocolate bars for 63 hours after their plane was wrecked, were little the worse for their experience.Isolated since dusk, Wednesday, when the pilot made a forced landing on a small lake about 20 miles east of Timmins, Ontario, the stranded men were located by searchers Saturday morning.For three nights and two days they had endured bitter cold on the shore of the desolate lake, close to Night Hawk Lake.Without supplies or camping material, they managed to build a crude shelter, using part of the wrecked \u2019plane.Cuts suffered by the pilot, Clare Leavens, of Belleville, Ont, and H.D, Marshall, of Timmins in the impact of the forced landing were bandaged with fabric from the shattered wings of the cabin plane.All of them were in a state of exhaustion when they reached Timmins Saturday afternoon, but their recovery was rapid.Members of the stranded party said they felt the cold keenly the second night.Leavens Bros.with their plane have visited Huntingdon on numerous occasions.Easter \u201cHe is Risen.\u2019\u2014St.Matt.28: T.Easter Day has well been called the queen of Christian festivals.It is the gladdest, brightest day in all the year.It is not only the festival of joy because of the triumph of the Risen Lord\u2014His victory over the race's arch-enemy death, but it is pre-emi- nently the day which brings comfort to the sorrowing: pardon and peace to the sinful and hope to the despairing.Hope! One of the most touching scenes in Goethe\u2019 Faust, says Dr.James Orr, is where the heart-sick sceptic about to drain the poison goblet is turned from his purpose by hearing the ringing of the Easter bells and the church hymns proclaiming that the Lord is risen.\u201cI hear your message.\u201d is his first comment.May we hear and heed that message at this happy Eastertide.That message is the keynote of the whole story of redemption, It is the Faster message which has changed the face of the world.These words \u2018He is risen,\u201d were first spoken by angel lips.Let us refresh our minds by a brief rehearsal of the story of the Resurrection -Day.The circumstances, briefly stated, were these: The women who ministered to Jesus in life had come early to the sepulchre on the first day of the week bearing sweet spices with which to anoint His body.Their chief anxiety was as to who should roll away the stone from the door of the tomb, for it was very great and far beyond their strength to move.To their astonishment and dread they found the huge stone rolled back from the mouth of the sepulchre and the tomb itself empty, while seated on the stone was an angelic form whose countenance was like lightning and his raiment white as snow and for fear of him the keepers did shake and became as dead men.\u201cFear not ye, for I know that ye seek Jesus which was crucified.He is not here, for He is risen, as He said.Come see the place where the Lord lay and go quickly and tell His disciples that He is risen from the dead and behold He goeth before you into Galilee.there shall ye see Him, lo I have told you.And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy and did run to bring His disciples word.And behold Jesus met them saying.All hail.\u201d It is this twice uttered word of the angel, \u2018He is risen.\u201d which rings on every Easter Day.It brought joy and gladness then.and it has resounded with sweetest cadences of comfort and hope ever since.If, like some of His disciples, we have our doubts, we are invited to come and see for ourselves and be convinced.Outside the sepulchre you will see nothing, nothing but an open tomb.and upon entering you find it contains no form.nothing but grave clothes, those emblems of man's sin.Let us give our earnest thought at this season to the resurrection of Jesus.Consider it as an historic fact.In the present day there are many glorying in the name of modernists who claim that the story of the resurrection cannot contain literal fact.These worldly-wise men tell us it is impossible.it is absurd, Certainly the doctrine of the risen Christ makes large demands upon our faith, We are required to accept and believe many things explain, and sometimes as men reason in this strain of disparagement and ridicule, there arises in our mind a vague feeling of distrust, a sense of danger to that which is the most priceless possession of the Christian Church.The hope which for more than nineteen centuries has gladdened the hearts of men seems less real.But there is no need to give way to false alarms, no reason for panic, no room for despair or discontent, unless it be with our own unhappy ignorance and lack of faith.There is every reason to court a full inquiry into the historical character of the resurrection, There is a world of comfort conveyed to the heart of the believer by reason of the resurrection.It is the earnest of our own resurrection.\u201cBecause I live,\u201d said Jesus, \u201cye shall live also.\u2019 Our living Lord has \u201covercome death and opened for us the gate of everlasting life.\u201d Authorities Made Poor Guess, in This Instance The hundredth anniversary of the death of Bolivar, the great liberator EASTER, THE QUEEN OF CHURCH FESTIVALS Easter, the anniversary of the resurrection of the Christ si one of the three great festivals of the Christian Church, the other two being Christmas and Whit Sunday.From the earliest dawn of Christianity down to the present day Easter has been annually acclaimed by the faithful with great joy and has been hailed the Queen of the Festivals.In primitive days it was the custom of Christians to salute each other on the morning of Easter Day with the words \u201cChrist is risen\u201d to which the person saluted replied \u201cHe is risen indeed\u201dand hath appeared unto Simon.\u201d This custom is still observed in the Greek Church and was common in Russia until the Bolsheviks sought to stamp all trace of religion from the country.The common name of the feast in the East was the Paschal Feast because it was kept at the same time as the Christian festival.The name Easter was retained when the character of the feast was changed.In olden days the entire month of April was dedicated to Eastre.Spring festivals with dancing and singing and feasting were held in her honor.Colorful crowds in their finest dress made merry in the open market places, young swains wooed their ladies, and laughter everywhere hore tidings of the birth of spring.Legend has it that the sun danced on Easter morning and that if one rose early enough to see this sight, ever after lucky would he be! The original Christian Easter was really a Thanksgiving festival lasting for eight days.The clergy of early Christian days in all ways to stress the joy of the spring.Feast tables were set within the churches.The rabbit or hare as an Easter symbol arises from the fact that the Easter date is dependent upon the moon, and the hare, in olden mythology, was supposed to come out and play.produce its young, and carry on most of its activities by the light of the moon.The egg as a symbol of Eastertide symbolizes birth, new life, a reawakening, about to come forth from the egg and seed.Though there has never been any difference in the Christian church as tc why Easter is kept there has been a good deal of discussion as to when it should be kept.It is a movable feast not being allotted to any particular date on the calendar like Christmas day.Easter day is always the first Suuday after the full moon which happens upon or next after the twenty-first day of March and if Easter Day happens on a Sunday.Easter is the Sunday following.The Paschal controversy for a time divided Christendom.It grew out of a difference of opinion.The churches of the East kept the festival on the same days as the Jews kept their Passover that is on the 14th day of Nisan, the Jewish month corresponding to our March or April.But the Churches of the west mindful of the fact that the resurrection of the Saviour occurred on Sunday kept their festival on the Sunday following Passover.For a time there was no serious clash of opinion on the matter but St.Polycarp went to Rome and took the matter up with the then Bishop of the Western Church but neither side was willing to make any concessions and the matter was dropped.Victor, Bishop of Rome, next sought to compel the Eastern churches to fall in line with Western practise but the latter obstinately refused and for a long time a bitter controversy raged.Meton, the Athenian philosopher, devised a cycle which was tc settle the date but it was superseded by another arbitrary cycle.Finally it was agreed that a great council should be held to determine the question.Oswy, King of Northum- bria, presided and Colman, Bishop of Lindisfarne.represented the British Church; Agilbert, Bishop of Dorches- ter, and Wilfrid, a young Saxon, were the delegates of the Roman Church, and finally the King gave judgment in favor of the Roman contention saying: \u201cI desire.as far as in me lies, to adhere to the precepts of the doorkeeper of heaven and to obey his commands lest by offending him I should find no one to open the gate for me when I present myself at it.\u201d MAKE REFRIGERATOR HELP WITH THE COOKING Ice-Box Cakés Have Unusual Flavor and Fine Texture Spreading cake and cooky-mak- ing over two days is a new adventure in household
