intolerant.\u2014\u2014 SIXTY-NINTH YEAR Huntingdon Town Children Rejoice Over Hoffman Entertainment.\u2014 The thing that puzzled many in Huntingdon on Saturday, was, why should Mr.Hoffman come out from Montreal and give an entertainment free of charge for the Xmas Tree League.Mr.Hoffman has been doing just such charitable work for the children in the Shriner's Memorial Hospital for six years; he likes children and the children also like him.Saturday afternoon Mr.Hoffman screened a number of movies in the Lecture Room of the United Church.To augment the entertainment, the Evans\u2019 Sisters Orchestra which plays daily in the Huntingdon Chateau materially assisted in the entertainment.The adults as well as the children who attended the entertainment were very much pleased with the presentation.At the suggestion of Dr.HR.Clouston the audience largely composed of juveniles thanked Mr.Hoffman by extending him a long applause, followed by a similar applause for the musicians.We are given to understand Mr.Hoffman purposes returning to Huntingdon some time later in the summer, and will again give an entertainment for the children, À silver collection was received on Saturday which was sufficient to defray the outstanding indebtedness of the Christmas Tree League.R.J.R.Nelson Made Chairman of Mfg.Assn, Halifax.\u2014 It is with a considerable degree of satisfaction that we are again able to report an item from the columns of the Halifax Mail of May 13.In that issue one of the feature headlines was that our Huntingdon boy, R.J.R.Nelson, who is one of the powerful influences of the Maritimes, was made chairman of the Maritime Branch of the Canadian Manufacturers\u2019 Association.The Maritimes have been enjoying a favorable trade of late years, in comparison with the past decade, and they look to the trade in future years still being further improved.Mr.Nelson has received a great many promotions in Halifax in many different avenues of commerce, and the readers of the Gleaner, who are his friends, wish him all success in his new office.A benefit dance under the auspices of the Huntingdon Agricultural Soc- jety Division A was held in the Agricultural Hall on Friday

issued for the coming exhibition, announcement was made that the prizes would be 509, of what has been paid in past years.Naturally the farmers were somewhat disappointed in hearing that the prizes would be only worth half as much as in past years, but this week we are informed the prizes will be raised to 70% of previous years.The reason for the increase of 20% is that the Federal Government has granted the exhibition a grant of $2,500.The usual grant was $5,000, but this grant was cancelled some months ago when wholesale slaughtering took place in regards to agricultural exhibition grants.Miss Demers Heard Over Radio.\u2014 Miss Gilberte Demers\u2019 many friends had the pleasure of listening to a wonderful program of music which she gave over station CKAC, La Presse, at three

sensible innovation to the curriculum.Dr.W.P.Percival, Director of Protestant Education announced at the meeting of the Provincial Association of Protestant School Boards that henceforth art, music, household science, electricity, shorthand and typewriting will be new departures in teaching in our Protestant Schools.It was decided that the new curriculum should go into effect next year.These subjects will not be compulsory, but the student will be given credit for them in connection with leaving school.In English, there will be more books in use from Grade 3 to 11.Arrangements are, however, being made to reduce the total cost below the former sum for books in use.It is a sensible move to add these subjects to the curriculum, for undoubtedly some of them, to a great many pupils will be a greater value than many of the subjects presently taught.As far as Huntingdon is concerned, the school will be short of accommodation and teachers, to introduce this department into the school.The Hottest Planet Camera Reveals Strange Markings on Surface of Mercury Dark spots and yellowish spots have been photographed for the first time on the surface of the plamet Mercury, smallest and hottest of the planets, by Mme.G.Camille Flam- marion, widow of the famous French astronomer of that name, and were reported recently to the Academy of Sciences, in Paris, by M.Ernest Es- clangon.Since M.Flammarion's death Mme.Flammarion has occupied herself with observations through the telescope which M.Flammarion used.Recently conditions were favorable for observation of Mercury, and Mme, Flammarion succeeded in obtaining several excellent photographs, something seldom possible because of the nearness of Mercury to the sun so that it never is seen except just before sunrise or just af~ ter sunset and when the earth's sky usually is too bright for good planetary photography.The new photographs agree, M.Esclangon told the academy, in showing some fairly definite markings, especially a whitish or yellowish area slightly south of the planet's equator and pronounced darker areas both north and south of this brighter one.The markings seem not to correspond exactly with those which other astronomers have believed that they saw by eye, but since these eye observations always have differed greatly among themselves their failure to match the photographs is not; surprising.The surface of Mercury receives about seven times more solar heat per square mile than the earth.Astronomers imagine that the planet's surface is unprotected by an atmosphere and must be burned virtually to a cinder.No one knows what the actual surface is, whether cindery dust, volcanic ash, or something more mysterious.land that I proposed to Miss Smith on the verge of a mountain

Had to Vacate Sleeping Quarters at St.Louis de Gonzague in Night Attire Fifty workmen of the Beauharnois Construction Company had to flee in their night attire when their sleeping quarters at St.Louis de Gon- zague were destroyed by a stubborn fire early Friday morning which swept through a large barn, the engineers' quarters and two outbuildings.Firemen were on the scene for many hours before they succeeded in extinguishing the outbreak which almost became a conflagration.The damage done to the various buildings was estimated at $23,000.The flames originated in the wooden building used as sleeping quarters for the men employed by the construction company.Fifty men were asleep in the building at the time of the outbreak and were awakened by the crackling of the burning building.They had not the time to dress, but had to make their escape in their night clothes.By this time the flames had made rapid headway and the adjoining buildings were threatened.Other sleeping quarters housing a similar number of men were some distance away, and fear was entertained that these also would be destroyed.Running in all directions the workmen raised the alarm which summoned other men to the scene, and the work of extinguishing the fire was commenced.The strong wind which prevailed at the time swept the flames to the engineers\u2019 quarters, and here also several men were forced to make their escape.The flames then reached a two- storey wooden barn and two small adjacent outbuildings.The flames were still spreading and the men of the construction company started fighting them from all sides in an effort to prevent them from communicating with the other sleeping camps.At three o'clock that morning the flames were raging threateningly and hope of saving the adjoining sleeping camps were almost abandoned.A S.OS.call was sent to Valleyfield and Deputy Chief Cuillierier, with Firemen Lalonde and Campeau and Engineer DeBellefeuille, rushed to the scene and arrived at 3.30 am.With the aid of men of the Beauharnois Construction Company the work of subduing the flames was started.Several streams of water were poured into the burning buildings and finally the fire-fighters succeeded in restricting the flames within certain limits.For a time it was thought that the other buildings housing many men would be destroyed and that a general conflagration would result.E tion of the ruins after the outbreak falled to reveal the cause of the fire.\u2018 Was Nurse Gassed in France Dies Miss Rose Cunningham, a World War nurse, who was gassed while on duty on the battle line in

Catechism ted suicide.ed that his nine-year-old son catechism sufficiently to pass tory tragedy was enacted, with the bodies \u201cYesterday afternoon, the parish priest said that I did not know my catechism and sent me home,\u201d testified nine-year-old Fernand Emard, principal eye-witness at the inquest and son of the victims.\u201cWhen I arrived home and entered the house my father was in the kitchen.When he learned about my having been sent home because I did not know my catechism, he became terribly mad.He accused my mother of being responsible for it all, as he said that my mother did not teach me anything.He said that instead of teaching me my catechism my mother was always amusing herself with \u2018cavaliers, in spite of all this my mother remained silent.\u201cSuddenly, my father took a kitchen chair, lifted it in the air and was preparing to hurl it upon my mother, when she said in a sad way: \u201cIt is terrible to desire to strike me with a chair.\u2019 Tears then streamed down her cheeks, but she did not speak any more.\u201cMy father did not strike my mother with the chair; instead, he rushed into his bedroom adjoining the kitchen, and returned within a few seconds.He was then carrying in his hands a large twelve-gauge double shotgun, and, when at a distance of about four feet from my mother, he aimed at her and fired a shot.My mother tried to protect herself with her right hand and a finger of her hand was torn by the pellets.\u201cI was then sitting at one end of the table some five feet from my mother and about nine feet from my father.The lead pellets of shot passed near my head and lodged in the wall just above my head.I then rushed out of the house through the back door and shouted for help.\u201d The young witness also testified that his father and mother often quarrelled owing to the terrible jealousy of his father.Daughter's Story The second witness heard was Ida Emard, 21 years of age, daughter of the victim.She told the jury that the fatal quarrel occurred as she was looking after the cleaning of the front rooms of her home.Miss Emard testified that she heard the outbreak of the quarrel, she went to the kitchen door, where she saw her father with a chair in his hands.\u201cMy father then said,\u201d witness testified, \u201cjust wait a while, you have driven me mad: long enough.\u201d When I saw him rush into his bedroom and emerge with a shotgun, I ran out of the house through the front door, I did not return until now.\u201d The young woman also corroborated her brother's testimony concerning the jealousy of her father and testified that owing to this her father and mother very often quarrelled.\u201cSince last November,\" testified the girl, \u201cmy father had often threatened to kill us.On one or two occasions he said in a mad voice, \u2018I will make a good job of them while I am at it.\u2019 Last November he wanted to kill a roomer, but my brother Elzear, who is 27 years of age, intervened in the nick of time.\u201d Elzear Emard, 27 years of age, son of the victims, was the naxt witness.He testified that he was absent at the moment of the tragedy which cost the lives of his father and mother.He further stated that last November he desired t have his father arrested, but his mother had prevented him from doing it.On that occasion witness explained, that his father had fired two shots from a shotgun and had threatened to kill them all, \u201cOur poor mother was too kind, indeed,\u201d further testified Elzear Emard.\u201cThe roomer whom my father threatened to kill had been taken in just to help owing to the fact that my father very seldom worked.Following the afternoon of a late November day, when my father had threatened to shoot the roomer, all the members af our fanidly retired to A brutal tragedy occurred at St.Chrysostome on Monday afternoon when Aimé Emard, 49 years old, murdered his wife, Cordelia Ouimet, 47 years old, and then commit- Emard was a very jealous and bad-tempered man, as evidence produced at the inquest revealed.The shooting occurred when Emard entered his home and learn- to First Holy Communion.The following evidence taken from a report in the Montreal Gazette gives complete information as to the cause and circumstances of the crime: \u201cI saw my father shoot my mother with his shotgun,\u201d 9 year old Fernand Emard told the jury enquiring into the death of Aime Emard and his wife, at St.Chrysostome yesterday afternoon, in answer to questions by Coroner Leopold Savage.The jury returned a double verdict of suicide and murder after hearing six witnesses, The inquest took place in the house where the bed early in the evening, and during the night I heard my father leave the house through the back room.! managed to reach him in the yard Fernand, did not know his for the examinations prepara- lying in an adjoining room.as he was threatening to kill the roomer.With difficulty.I managed to disarm him and take him back into the house.While in the house my father made desperate efforts to kill me with a heavy iron bar.\u201d Beyond Control Johnny Emard, brother of the dead man, Ovila Leclerc, Horace Rochefort, also testified and corroborated the statements of the other witnesses heard, in regard to the numerous scenes of unnecessary jealousy caused by Aime Emard.They testified that Aime Emard often drank, and that, furthermore, when under the influence of liquor, it was practically impossible to control him.Dr.Joseph Arthur Poirier, of St.Chrysostome, the physician who examined the bodies, stated that one finger of the right hand of the woman had been torn off by the lead pellets of the shotgun.The pellets had penetrated her neck at a spot situated above the collarbone and emerged at the back of the left ear.Death was practically instantaneous.Emard\u2019's body was found to be bearing a single large hole about the chest, inflicted by the same shotgun which had been used to kill his wife.The jury, composed of residents of St.Chrysostome, deliberated for a very short time after which the following verdict was rendered: \u201cAime Emard died of voluntary destruction, and Mrs.Aime Emard, née Cordelia Ouimet, his wife, was assassinated by her husband, Aime Emard.\u201d The funeral arrangements of the victims of the double tragedy have not been made as yet.Mrs.Aime Emard, formerly Cordelia Ouimet, was known there as a model mother, and had attended Mass and received Holy Communion less than ten hours before she was brutally murdered by her husband.TWO HELD ON GRAVE CHARGES Howard Held

of Montreal are accused of having entered two cottages at Port Lewis on Friday in an unlawful manner, and as a result found themselves in the Huntingdon lock-up on Saturday morning.The intruders were following along the lake shore road on foot; two of them were seen to head into one of Stalker's cottages around 5 o'clock, but the neighbours nearby thought nothing of that.A few minutes later the two remaining members of the party, who stayed on the roadside, were seen running to the cottage and in quick order made a quick exit carrying a small package.At 7 o'clock Mr.and Mrs.J.H.Demers motored out to their cottage with a view to planting a few seeds.As Mr.Demers was about to proceed with his work he heard sounds within the cottage.In his car he had a gun so he rushed to the car to get it, and as he was getting the gun one of the Intruders rushed past him whilst the other three ran in another direction.The chase was on, the four intruders heading up the road to the Lunan point.Mr, Demers fired one shot at a stone which gave them quite a scare.Mr.Demers enlisted the help of Rene and Lucien Dumou- chel in the chase.They trailed after the quartette through the Lunan point until the quartette evaded them into a bush and were lost in the darkness.The chase was continued for all of that after Ernest Car- riere and his son Lucien joined the searching party.They searched bulld- ings along the Quesnel Concession but without results.Mr.Demers returned to Hunting- don and informed Mr.C.M.Oney of his experiences.With the assistance of Mr.Norman McRae, bailiff, further organization plans were formulated.J.E.Qeunneville of 8t.Ani- cet organized the farmers in the Parish of St.Anicet to be on the lsokout for the four men; by midnight the community was generally informed of what had transpired.Early in the morning Rodolphe Caza and Sandy Caza phoned Mr.Demers saying the four wanted men were at Alcide Carriere's getting breakfast.When at the factory the farmers were talking the situation over as to how they should capture the quartette.It was decided not to excite the men but to trap them when all was ready.At 6.30 am.Messrs, De- mers, Oney and McRae left Hunting- don and headed up the Quesnel Concession.In the other party the principals were Adrien Brunet and his brother Albert Brunet, who trailed the movements of the four, under the disguise that they were driving a few head of cattle.Bailiff E.A, Quennevilie of 8t.Anicet was further assisted by J.E.Quenneville, Etienne Leblanc, Rodolphe Caza and Avila Caza.By the time the Huntingdon party arrived on the scene the four men were caught and in the car of Bailiff Quenneville ready to be brought to the Huntingdon lockup.Bailiff E.A.Quenneville caught two of the prisoners whilst Rodolphe Caza and Etienne Leblanc each caught one, Detectives Dion and Tanguay, of the Provincial Police arrived in Hun- tingdon Saturday noon.Upon questioning the four accused they admitted the reason why they were chased and caught.They denied having left any parcel of silver found in the De- mers cottage which was taken from the Stalker cottage.At the Demers cottage they had made up several bundles of provisions, and clothing, but did not take anything away.The accused when brought to Huntingdon were drenched with rain, having been out all night.They were taken to Valleytield for a hearing by the two detectives.The Gore Mr.and Mrs.A.Hay left on Sunday for their home in Lond Island City, NJ., after spending the past week the guests of Mrs.Wm.Anderson.Mrs.Ruby Pollock and family

Wednesday, May 25th, 1932 Building Trade With the forthcoming Imperial Trade Conference to be held in Ottawa in July, talk everywhere in regards to trade seems to hinge on this gathering.During the past ten days the great trade talk in Montreal has been diverted to the Scottish Trade Mission Exhibition Ship on board the \u201cT.S.8.Letitia.\u201d The honorary president of the expedition was His Grace the Duke of Montrose.At the many public functions held in Montreal during the stay of this exhibition of Scottish products, he made many addresses, all of which indicated that the Scottish traders want to meet the Canadian traders to see if they could make arrangements for trading to the mutual advantage of one another.Besides the great advertising feat carried out by the Scottish traders this expedition has proved itself to be a great goodwill mission.You trade with people whom you know or have seen, with a great deal more pleasure and respect, than those foreign to you, and so it is, the Scotchmen have developed this favourable contact.Upon boarding the \u201cLetitia\u201d one would likely see flour from Mc- Donald & Robb of Valleyfield going down into the hold to go back to Scotland.Going from deck to deck one was amazed with the great displays of textiles, chinaware, pottery, sporting goods.engines, steel exhibits, Scotch coal, the Scottish dogs and of course the Scotch liquors, for which they are most noted by a great many Canadians.The Scotchmen came to Canada with this great floating display of their merchandise, not looking for favours, but to further establish their business on the foundation of honest, straight dealing, and on equitable terms.His Grace the Duke of Montrose drew the attention of the members of the Canadian Club to what Canada had lost by reason of the past policy followed by the United Kingdom in respect of unrestricted and unlimited free imports.\u201cLet me point out to you.as an illustration,\u201d said the Duke of Montrose, \u2018that since the war we imported practically no cereals from Russia.It was in 1928-29 that the Russian Five-year Plan began, and for the first time, in 1930, Russian corn came into our market and at prices 30 to 50 per cent below your Canadian prices.or other prices offered to us.Then followed a complete collapse in cereal prices in all United Kingdom markets.You endeavored to compete; you lowered your prices, but in 1931 Russia lowered hers another 15 to 30 per cent.and not only was our own agriculture ruined and thousands of our own land workers thrown out of employment, but you here in Canada suffered, too.\u201d \u201cIt comes to this, the fall in prices represents a loss of $75.- 000,000 of United Kingdom money which, but for the fall in prices, would have been spent here in Canada.It would nave been far better for us both if these Russian cereals (largely the production of forced and sweated labor) had been excluded and that our money should go into your pockets: that you, in return, should use this money to buy manufactures from us.\u201cThanks to the action of Canada in the 1930 Imperial Conference, there is before us today an opportunity to rectify these matters and strengthen Imperial trade relations such as has never existed before.\u201d Whilst this friendly trade mission was going on in the metropolis of Canada, Montreal, Col.W.L.McGregor.president of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce told our American cousins at San Francisco in no uncertain terms how Canada felt today towards the American people who do not reciprocate in regards to trade the way Canada patronizes them.His talk was a heart to heart one, and one that would certainly make many American firms think, and cause action to take place within the government of the United States that would be more friendly towards Canada.The relationships between the peoples of these two countries has been exceedingly peaceable, but the economic phase has not been so successful.The United States with its 120,000,000 of population have invested $3,750,000,000 in Canada, whilst the 10.000,000 Canadians have invested $1,- 000,000,000 in the United States.The flow of trade shows that again Canada has been too generous towards the United States in comparison with what it received in return.In 1931 Canada purchased at the rate of $40 per capita from the U.S.whilst the Americans purchased {from Canada at the rate of less than $2.50 per capita.In 1930 Canada bought at the rate of $65 per capita and the U.S.at $3.50.In 1929, the banner year of trade Canada bought from the United States $893,500,000 worth of goods, yet the United States only bought from Canada $545,000,000 with all its massive population compared to that of Canada.The Hawley-Smoot Tariff Bill reacted against Canada and if Canada's trade with the United States has dwindled, it was the American's loss.The people of Canada need the products they were buying from Uncle Sam, and so it is that .the Scotochmen of Scotland are bidding for this favourable and commendable trade of Canada.If the Scotchman can locate a market in Can- ade for his manufactures on a greater scale than heretofore, we in Canada can hope to sell a greater amount of cereals and other merchandise \u201cto \u201cOld Scotland.\u201d om meme ema The 8cotchman is proving himself more agressive than perhaps a great many Canadians will be willing to concede, but from the two episodes that took place last week, one in Montreal and the other in San Francisco, one can readily believe Canada stands to materially profit by both.Spring House Cleaning In the current issue of \u201cPsychology\u201d there is an article entitled \u201cSpring House Cleaning\u201d which should be read by every person of the civ- flized nations.This article deals in particular with mental house-cleaning.Depicting the fresh aspect of Spring with its new life, new flowers, blue skies, music of songbirds, after the bleak desolation of Winter, the editor, Henry Knight Miller, suggests cleaning the house of the soul, to get in harmony with the sweet symphony of nature, to clean the mental and emotional life, even as we clean the material habitation which we call home.\u2018The editor's first attack is made on prejudice and entreats his readers to forget political, religious and racial prejudice.He says that all men are members of a common brotherhood, stirred by the same emotions, work, laugh, weep, love and strive with the same general incentives and objectives.Bumming up the sins of prejudice the writer declares prejudice to be ignorance, masquerading as wisdom, vice, camouflaged as virtue, and the most discordant note in the symphony of life.The writer's second attack is made on superstition and in his topic \u201c paragraph lists a frumber of the foolish superstitions.Despite the fact that they have #0 unceasingly proved untrue yet millions of forlorn souls hug their insane superstitions feverishly to their breasts and live as though the world were under the sway of black magic rather than rational law.Under this heading the writer strongly condemns the closed mind.Pollowing through the editorial we come across a paragraph of great \" walue in \u201cThe Glory of Forgiveness\u2019 Advising his readers to forgive and forget ho says that grudges and jealousies poison the fountain of life at its source, for the source of life is love, and there can be no love where grudges and jealousies hold sway.Continuing paragraphs are devoted to inferiority complex, pesstmism, cowardice, and selfishness.While it may be necessary to consider:one\u2019s ' own interest, the real zest and joy of life come not from getting but from giving.Selflehness is the rubbish which precludes successful achievement, It is the chief enemy of content and happiness.It must be conquered and \u201cthrust forth from the citadel of the soul as the most poisonous and dangerous weed in the garden.,( Spring is bere.House-cléaring time.We clean out our homes, Lats dean out our minds.Clean them out now.Start today.! Chronicled News Bits Specially Written for The Huntingdon Gleaner Marked Coin Ends Journey Twenty years of travel, over thousands of miles and through many States by the hands of honest men and thieves, ended for a marked 50-cent piece, when Lee Bryan of Bakersfield, California, returned the coin to its rightful owner.Bryan, grocery store manager, was a clerk in the C.A.Blodgett store in Spokane, Wash., on March 17, 1912, when his employer marked the 50-cent piece with his initials and the date, to commemorate the birth of a son.Bryan watched the ritual.Blodgett put the marked coin in the office safe.It rested alongside a prize dollar, dated 1794.Six months later the strong box was opened by burglars.They took the two keepsake coins, along with other loot.Recently, the Bakersfield grocer was counting up the cash at his store.He noted a familiar coin.It was the marked half dollar, with \u201cC.A.B.\u2014March 17\u20141912,\" scratched on its face.Bryan sent the coin back to his former employer.Gained Wealth Overnight A family of six German unemployed have become overnight millionaires.Gustav Schone, a poor Leipsic, Germany, musician who used to play the \u2018cello in a moving picture theater before the sound film made him jobless, awoke one morning to be informed that he had inherited $1,000,000 from a long- forgotten uncle in Australia.The same news was conveyed to his two brothers and three sisters, who also have been living on the dole for over a year.With a total fortune of $6,000,000 in their possession, the unfortunate recipients of the bequest have moved up into the front rank of Germany's wealthiest families.Eggs Hatched in Pocket With two crow eggs in a pocket.E.E.Peet, farmer, drove toward the county clerk's office at Emporia, Kansas.It was a very warm day.\u201cI'm sorry,\u201d said the deputy clerk.\"but we don't pay bounty on crow's eggs\u2014just on crow heads.\u201d \u201cWell, you can have the eggs anyway.\u201d Peet responded and put a hand in the pocket.A look of astonishment crossed his face.He collected 20 cents bounty\u201410 cents on each crow.Talked in His Sleep Murder confession was made by a tramp who was given a night's lodging in a quiet house near Avignon, France.During the night the man began to talk in his sleep, and several times called out: \u201cIt was I who killed her.but they will never get me.\u201d The people in the house were so disturbed, they called the police, who arrested him.He was found to have been the murderer of a little girl, Marie Bonsignio, who lived near Marseilles.She could not give him alms when he demanded it so he brutally assaulted her.Pay Debts With Eggs Ten years from now, after he has turned over 1,000 dozen eggs to two Adams lawyers, at Adams, Mass., a farmer will have cleaned up a debt of $250 contracted through their having represented him in a recent court case.As the client lacked the funds, he and his lawyers reached an agreement whereby he is to deliver each week two dozen eggs to his debtors.One of the latter, having no taste for eggs, in turn arranged to have his associate turn over to him each week the market price for his share of the eggs.Damm Family to School The whole Damm family will feature the Brazil, Indiana, high school commencement.Receiving diplomas will be Charles W.Damm, Sr., his son, Charles W., Jr., and his daughter, Nelda.The father, a musician, seeks to complete high school work started in Listowel, Ontario, preparatory to entering college.Doukhobor Boys Make Threat The 30 Doukhobor boys who have taken up residence at the Boys Industrial School at Coquitlam, B.C., intimated to authorities that if forced to go to school they will undress.After breakfast, the boys, who range in age from seven to 17, had a bath and a hair trim.Some objected to the hair cut, but none found fault with the compulsory ablutions.They were outfitted with regulation school uniforms.Some of the boys can speak English, some can't or won't.Those who can speak English, however, made it plain that they would not go to school and if forced to do so would show their displeasure by disrobing.Some of them expressed annoyance at being separated from their parents.At breakfast, butter was refused by the boys.It is understood they will not eat butter, eggs and meat.250,000 Free Meals 250,000 free meals were paid for by L.N.Bruns- wig, Los Angeles philanthropist, before he asked his guests to produce cards showing they had performed two hours\u2019 work on a public project.He had been serving 900 applicants dally, but on the first day the cards were required the number dropped to thirteen.Further inquiry showed a number of regularly employed men had been eating at his place to save the price of lunch elsewhere.Wife Rejects Trunkful of Money Maurice Lippert, owner of a trunkful of real money and bonds, was sent to jail by Judge Daniel Trude, at Chicago, Illinois, for nonpayment of $160 alimony to Anna, his estranged wife, whom he met through a matrimonial agency.His suggestion that Anna take the whole trunkful and leave him in peace was instantly spurned by her.\u201cI want my $160 and that's all I want,\u201d sald she.\u201cLet him keep his trunk, I've looked through it.The money in it is in Russian rubles, pre-war, and the bonds are pre-war German.\u201d Five Cows Paid Fine Because Helvetia de Speghel, of Sarnia Township, Ontario, was fined $100 and costs for illegal possession of beer, her mother was forced to sell five cows to the butcher to meet the fine and save her daughter from three months in jail.That 18 what her mother told the magistrate.Unemployed Have Unusual Pet Two young unemployed men, near Kamloops, B.C., who by their resourcefulness have not cost the country a cent, have a most interesting and companionable pet.One evening they caught a young groundhog, put it in a cage and fed it carrots.Later they opened the cage but the little fellow stayed, and was still there the next morning and has been their faithful friend ever since.At night it sleeps under the stove in their shack, and if it sees the door being shut it makes a dash to get in first.If perchance it is left out in the cold it whistles and makes a fuss until admitted.One evening it was a short distance away and seeing the door being closed made a rush for it but arrived too late and was coming with such speed that it knocked itself out against the closed door.The young men have on occasions taken the little animal back to its kind along the railway track but it has always preferred domestication to the uncertainties of wild life, and returned.Incidentally it was given a proper bath before being taken into the household.These two unemployed have made a shack some five or six miles from town habitable, and they walk the distance into the city several times a week in search of odd jobs or the chance of permanent employment.They can live, they say, comfortably on $2.50 a week; but that allows them nothing for clothes.One is a university graduate, A Cheap Pair of Shoes Elliott Mitchell bought a pair of old shoes in Bavannah, Ga., for $2.50.He went to Ridgeland, S.C., got his feet wet, took off the shoes and found $30 in bills in the toe of one shoe.May Help Church Attendance Omission of collection at the morning service of a church in Melrose, Massachusetts, is another result of the depression.The minister, Rev.Henry T.Secrist, stated that the trustees had voted to omit the time-honored practice in the belief that such weekly contributions to the plate constitute a hardship for many persons under existing conditions, and in the belief also that the omission may help to stimulate church attendance.Beggars Are Choosers Plaintive request for something to eat was made by a down-and-out to Mrs.Adolf Fink of Fort Lee, N.J.She acceded and presently came back with a plate of turkey sandwiches.He looked them over and asked where the coffee was.She explained it was not convenient to make coffee at that time of day.The tramp seized the plate and hurled the sandwiches over a fence into an adjoining yard and flew into a bitter tirade.Mrs.Fink, alarmed, cailed the police who gave him a lecture on gratitude and fifteen minutes to get out of Fort Lee.Lawyer Struck Witness An assault charge has been laid by Camile Parent against Bernard Cohn, young Windsor, Ontario lawyer.The action is the echo of an altercation which took place in ninth division court when Cohn struck Parent, a defendant in a judgment case.Judge Wilson was on the bench at the time of the alleged assault, and while he styled the action of the lawyer as a disgrace to the bar, he did not announce any penalty for the breach of court discipline.Eternal Triangle Drama \u201cEternal triangle\u201d drama ended in tragedy in Paris.Jean Lachaud, over seventy, suspected his wife, also elderly, of an affection for a man named Finet, who was much younger.Despite her assertions that his fears were ridiculous, he got a revolver and when he saw a man like Finet approaching the apartment where they all lived, fired and killed him.He then killed his wife and himself, Meanwhile it was found that the supposed rival who had been killed was not Finet at all, but an Italian bricklayer, with a wife and children in Italy.Peck's Bad Boy Alive Peck\u2019s bad boy, whose alleged antics long since became world-famous, Is now a sedate, almost schol- anly-looking grandfather, who wears pince-nez glasses and spats.He lives with his daughter in the exclusive North Shore suburb of Chicago.Now retired, this only son of George W.Peck, author of \u201cPeck\u2019s Bad Boy,\u201d spends a good share of his time writing\u2014 not reminiscences, but of sports.Mr.Peck has a hard time convincing people that his reputed antics were the invention of his father's imagination.Alimony Payments Cause Suicide If Garfield J.Schieferstein, 50, Chicago, had waited a little while, life for him might have gone along smoothly.April 15 was the date set by Judge Harry B.Miller for a hearing on his application for a reduction in alimony, a matter he had been attending to for thirteen years during which he paid out $2,500 for the support of his wife, Mildred, and their daughter, Dorothy.But Schieferstein did not wait.Instead he went into a private garage, started the engine of his automobile and died from the monoxide fumes.\u201cI leave this world,\u201d he sald in a farewell note, \u201cbecause 1 have been ruined by my wife and laws and courts that make the racket of alimony possible, I am in a position where I cannot meet my obligations even though I live like a hermit in one of my vacant flats, with but a bed and a chair as my only furniture.\u201cTwo years ago she started to take my property away when I ran a few weeks behind.This she can do easily as the alimony is a lien on my property.I had the grief and she had the gravy.Goodbye world, you are too much for me.\u201d \u2018 Some Day They Meet Their Mate Obscure pedlar outwitted an international confidence man in Madrid.He offered a silver watch and chain and five silver coins for mioney valued at $2.75.He talked with such conviction that the confidence man paid over his cash.The pediar then disappeared.The confidence man opened his parcel and found a worthless watch, a leaden chain, five pieces of chocolate wrapped in silver paper.He went to the police to complain, the police sympathized, but recognized him as a wanted man.They said they were doubly glad that he had called as they soon caught the

life in fresh water which goes to ses, to spawn and die.This fact made the eel a mystery fish for thousands of years and it has only been in the last thirty years that its habits became known.The eel is known as a fresh-water fish, yet it is born and dies in salt water.Each spawning season the adults swim down the rivers to the sea and undertake the long journey to the warm waters in sub-tropical mid-ocean, where they meet the European eels, of only a slightly different species.The two varieties spawn in almost the same areas, deep down in the ocean and then, as if unable to undertake the long journey back, they die.The remarkable feature of the next step is this: That the young eels, born in mid-ocean, find their way back to the waters from which their parents come; that is to say, the American variety returns to American waters and the European variety to European waters.Just what instinct leads them to do this science has not yet determined, but it is a fact that European species is not found here.nor American species in Europe.The young eels remain in fresh water until they are fully mature and a spawning season arrives.Then they leave, never to return.This period of feeding for growth is about twelve years.Very young eels are never found in American waters, as it takes them a year at least to reach here from their birthplaces.The period is even longer for European eels, which seldom reach fresh water until they are about three years old.All of these facts have become known through the investigations of the eminent Danish biologist, who in 1904 started on the eel's trail and for twenty years fished the European coast, made deep sea investigations off the West Indies and finally investigated the American coast.with @ROLL@ oT Rugby is a quality cigarette

Kungsberger, Sweden, have decided to retain the medieval \u201cbid-stick\u201d communication service.The \u201cbid-stick,\u201d a stick with a writ fastened around its center, is circulated among the inhabitants of the village.and every one who receives it has to carry it to his nearest neighbor after reading the message.The Kunsberger villagers declare that its use is much more dependable than postcards or telephone calls.Since there is a fine of $21.75 for anyone who keeps the \u201cbid-stick\u201d too long or who neglects to forward it, the \u201cstick\u201d triumphs over the modern means of communication.\u2014 Baltimore Sun.Announces - - - WHEAT PRICE = GUARANTY ANY FARMERS who need new machines for the economical production of their crops have been reluctant to buy them because of

unappreciated little product of the wilderness.\u201cBy Jove, Petol, you should be a missionary tutoress among your mother\u2019s people.\u201d \u201cThe sisters tried to persuade me to accept such a position as you have mentioned, but my father wished me to stay with him, and indeed I preferred the carefree life of the Aben- akis to being shut up in a mission house, but I suppose it is very selfish of me.\u201d \u201cNot at all,\u201d said Seagraves, \u2018one cannot help ones own desires, and who can say they are not righteous desires.\" \u201cMy daughter is self-willed.but I think she is not selfish,\u201d said Mrs.Barntre.\u201cYou have, in my opinion, the correct analysis of your daughter.and in her you have a wonderful prize,\u201d said Seagraves.During this conversation, Dan had been mapping out their next day's trip.\u201cI think,\u201d said Dan, \u2018we can make at least a fifty mile trip before snow is too deep.It will take us three or four days.We can undoubtedly find moose signs on this trip, and will try to get one because you and I, Seagraves, will need moose- hide snowshoes when snow gets deep.Petol's deerhide shoes are all right for the squaws, but not for men.\u201d The sky cleared during the night.and a cold north wind drove the temperature down below zero, and in the morning the men crossed the creek on the ice, and taking a northeasterly course traveled fast till noon, then ate a light lunch and continued, swinging slightlyl to the north till they came to the bank of the Maurice River.The ice here was dangerously thin.Dan cut two short poles, sharpened one end of each.and carefully tested the ice.It was then about four p.m.and Dan decided they had better camp there that night.In the morning the ice would undoubtedly be stronger, and would afford a safe crossing.Seagraves agreed to this procedure, and immediately they started throwing up a comfortable leanto.From a dry stub they obtained a good supply of wood, and took turns keeping up the fire all night.As Dan had predicted, the ice held them up next morning, and before it was fairly daylight they crossed.and here Dan carefully examined the banks for signs of the fugitives.The ground being covered with snow.he was handicapped, and almost discouraged, but determined to find the murdered or die in the attempt.All night long, Dan was trying to decide upon the best course to pursue.He reasoned that the fugitives would continue north in preference to returning to the big river.In this he was right, but hee was the question: how to determine their route of travel.Undoubtedly they would plan to reach some trading post in the Hudson Bay territory, sooner or later, to replenish their grub stake.They talked the situation over and decided to make a wide detour to the East, swinging northerly.thence westerly, and back to their camp, taking perhaps two or three weeks to complete the half circle.SEND FOR Kai FREE LA BOOK ON BABY ~~ WELFARE Does baby cry

which must have been at least six miles across.Marshes extended inland at the north end of the lake, several miles.Last year's cat-tails, stiff and dried, resembled a cornfield lately struck by frost.A wonderful trapping ground, but no sign of human beings ever having been there could be found.Seagraves was beginning to tire.He was not used to such continuous trekking through crusted snow and old fire slashes.Dan noticed his lagging footsteps.Only enough venison remained for another meal.Dan suggested coasting along the lake shore till they would find a spring, and then build a temporary camp and rest for a few days, while he would still-hunt a deer.Seagraves was only too glad to accept this proposal.They continued for another mile, crossing the cat tails bog, and came to higher ground covered with a scrub growth of spruce and balsam, with a little brook percolating crookedly into the lake.Dan then selected a sheltered spot close to the brook.with a big boulder for the fireside.and together they constructed a bough camp.Dan, who apparently never tired, soon had a good supply of dry wood.Telling Seagraves to lie on the thick mat of balsam boughs, Dan went to the cattails and with his hunting knife cut several huge armfuls of the dried stalks, and brought them back to the camp.Rolling close together in their buckskin clothes, they slept comfortably till morning.According to Dan's past experiences in the forest.it was an easy matter to walk quietly up near enough to a deer to bring it down with one shot from his musket, so he anticipated no trouble in securing his meat.\u201cYou stay here and rest.Ben, till I come.We'll have to get meat before we can go further.\u201d \u201cAll right, Dan.Sorry I can't help you any.\u201d Dan shouldered his old musket and disappeared in the woods.Taking a northeasterly course, expecting to find a yard a few miles out where he could see the outlines of low hills.he was surprised that there were no tracks.as it was an ideal living ground for deer.However.he was not left long in ignorance of the cause.At the foot of the first rise he stopped short.Here was a track, but not the track of a deer.A huge panther had passed within the last hour.\u201cNo deer today.\u201d thought Dan.The panther is the deer\u2019s worst enemy.and the scent from this ferocious animal can be detected by the deer's keen nostrils for miles through the forest.The panther, when driven by hunger.will train a man as well as deer.As sly as a house cat.it will also lie in wait in the branches of a tree and drop quietly on the back of its prey and bury its fangs in the nape of the nck.killing its quarry instantly.No one knew better than Dan Emmet the treachery of this dangerous, diabolical denizen of the wilderness.He followed the panther's trail a few hundred feet in order to determine the general direction it was traveling.And then, knowing he would find no deer.he swung slightly to the west.looking for smaller game.In this he was also disappointed.The country seemed barren of any kind of meat.He hated to waste powder and ball on small game.Red squirrels were quite plentiful, and now and then a partridge and an Indian hen startlea him by their noisy flight.All day he tramped the forest, returning at night with nothing.Ben Seagraves had had a goodday's rest, and Dan found him out cutting a supply of dry wood.\u201cWhat luck.Dan?\u201d \u201cNot a thing.I will try a new trick tomorrow.and then if you feel strong enough we will get out of here.There's a big cat in this neck of the woods, and he's drove all the game to the mountains.\u201d That night they ate the last of their meat for supper.\u201cWhat's that new trick, Dan?\u201d \u201cWell, we'll see what we can find under the ice in the marshes and on the lake.\u201d \u201cyou've aroused my curiosity.Dan, but I wish you would take me along tomorrow and teach me the trick so I can be of some assistance.\u201d \u201cVery well, Ben.I think I

Huntingdon, Que.Hemmingford, Que.make you quite useful.First, we must make a spear, and then rig up some fishing tackle, I will make the spear tonight.In one of my pockets I have some hooks and lines.Your job in the morning will be to cut some grubs from some of those old rotted tamarack stubs out on the marsh.\u201cThat is the trouble of wintering in this north country,\u201d said Ben, \u201cto keep from starving.\u201d \u201cYou are right.Many of our trible have starved here in the past hundred years.I have found the bones of some half-eaten by the wolves.\u201d Ben had cut a good quantity of firewood.Dan then went a short distance up the little run and found a small elm sapling which he cut and brought to camp.From this he cerved a spear, sharp-pointed and barbed.Scraping it smooth he placed it in the flames of the fire, turning it slowly, till it was case-hardened, then hung it about six feet above the fire.\u201cWe had better keep a good fire all night.If that big cat happens to be hungry he will trail me in from the woods.\u201d Ben carried a pair of six shooters in his belt, and he was one of the best shots in the police force.\u201cI'd like a chance to bore him between the eyes,\u201d said Ben.\u201cThat would be all right,\u201d said Dan, \u201cbut you don't want \u2019em too close when you bore \u2018em.They'll fight like hell for ten minutes after they're shot dead.\u201d \u201cWell, I'm glad you told me that, Dan.I'll keep it in mind if + get the chance to shoot him.\u201d CHAPTER XXV Supperless, they lay down on their cat-tail bed, and took turns keeping the fire going till about four in the morning.and from then till daylight they both managed to get some much needed rest.At sun up, without any breakfast, they started for the marshes.Dan carried his spear and musket, while Ben took the axe.About one-fourth mile along the way} they steered straight for the edge of the cat-tails, where they joined the lake shore.Here they found several dead tamarack stubs, which they demolished with the axe, and they were successful in finding a half dozen grubs.Ben carefully placed them in his pocket.\u201cThat will be enough to start with.and I shall furnish you more bait if the fish are biting.\u201d said Dan.Dan then showed Ben where to cut a hole in the ice.Seagraves had often fished in the big river, but this was an entirely new experience.\u201cLet your nook go to the bottom and I think you will have a bite very soon.And stay here\u2014I will soon return.\u201d Dan took the axe and entered the cattail flags and.as he surmised.soon came to a muskrat house.which he carefully opened on one side.Firs: putting his ear close to the house.he thumped it lightly and listened.Hearing nothing.he thumped ji again harder, and was rewarded by hearing one, two.three separa splashes down in the basement underground runway of the intelligent little animals.Then it was he inserted his spear through the little opening he cut.and waited patiently for the little animal to return for a breath of air.In about five minutes a tiny splash announced the return of one of them and, with a quick, strong thrust of the spear.he transfixed a fine specimen of the muskrat.and brought him up through the hole he had cut in the roof.One hard rap on the head with his axe speedily stopped the little animal's struggles.Quietly Dan waited again and repeated the operation until he had three stretched out on the snow.Then he carefully replaced the root he had cut out.and proceeded tc take off their pelts.Muskrats were a delicacy with the Abenakis, and also most of the French of the north country.Dan cut a few narrow strips of the flank, and returned to where Ben was fishing.\u201cGuess we're in the wrong place.Dan.Haven't got a bit yet.and only three feet of water; mud bottom,\u201d said Seagraves.\u201cWell.we'll go around the sea shore.There's a little creek coming in.There's trout in this lake somewhere, and we'll find \u2018em.A gravel or rocky bottom is best, of course.\u201d A quarter of a mile up the shore, they found quite a sizable brook coming in from the high ground, and soon several holes were cut, as there was only about six inches of ice.Ben dropped his line in the hole nearest the shore.\u201cDeep enough here.Must be over six feet)\u201d said Ben; as he pulled his line up and let it down several times, trying to measure the depth of water.\u201cI've got my last grub on my hook, Dan.but if there's no fish here we won't need any more bait.\u201d Dan had rigged up another line, and fastened it to the end of a short stick for a pole.He baited his hook with a strip of the muskrat\u2019's flank and.dropping it in the hole, watched it slowly sink.When about four feet deep the line suddenly started to one side, and was rushed through the water, nearly jerking it out of his hands.Dan gave a quick pull, and in another moment had a two-pound speckled trout flopping on the ice.He looked at Ben just in time to see him pull out a fine large trout.\u201cHave you got some more bait, Dan?\u201d \u201cSure, Ben, lots of it.What do you think I was doing out in the cattails?\u201d 1 \u201cWell, as you didn't say what you were going to do, I surmised you were setting a trap for the big cat.\u201d \u201cAh, a cat like the one that I saw the track of, would be hard to catch in a trap.\u201d Dan dropped his pole and fished up some strips of bait from his jacket pocket, and handed them to Ben.\u201cAnd now tell me just how you secured this meat.It looks enough to eat, and to tell the truth I feel hungry enough to eat it this minute.if it is raw.\u201d Dan laughed aloud at that, \u201cWait until you go a week without eating before you talk of being hungry.\u201d School Report Forms for pupils attending rural schools.At the request of a number of teachers in rural schools, we have printed up a supply of suitable report forms which will be sold in small lots as desired.The Huntingdon Gleaner Inc, THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER \u201cI wouldn't be able to talk at all.I'd be dead at the end of a week of starvation,\u201d said Ben.\u201cGoing without eating for several days at a time is just a habit you can adquire by will power or force of necessity,\u201d said Dan soberly.\u201cThe 1Indians of this north country have learned by bitter experience the pangs of hunger and the will power, driven by starvation, which keeps a man up for days without food.But the Abenakis have learned much by years of experience, including how to obtain meat under difficulties.\u201cAnd a white man would quickly giveup and die under those same conditions,\u201d said Ben gravely.\u201cWell, I trust we'll not have to test ourselves on this trip,\u201d said Dan, \u201cWith your experience I feel perfectly safe.You are proving yourself capable in this little pinch, I see plainly,\u201d said Ben.\u201cThe panther has made chances in the woods pretty desperate for us, but as long as we stay at this lake we can live,\u201d said Dan.During the next half hour a nice mess of trout were caught, and the hungry men returned to their little bough camp, where a hearty meal of trout and muskrat was enjoyed.After resting until about three in the afternoon, they returned to their fishing holes, and secured a large string of beautiful trout.They buried these fish in the snow just outside their camp.Then, cutting another supply of wood, Ben remarked: \u201cDan, what d'ye think about climbing out a\u2019 here in the morning?\u201d \u201cIL think,\u201d said Dan, \u201cthat would be a good plan, unless the big cat comes here looking up these fish.You know fish is the best bait for all cats, and I am planning to get a crack at him in a day or two, He is sure to scent these trout, and that will make a hungry cat as bold as a lion, and if we can kill him, then it will be safe for us to leave here.I mean, safe in respect to our obtaining deer or moose meat when outside of the course of his travels.\u201d \u201cAh, I understand now what experience has taught you.How ignorant we city cusses are of the ways of the forest.I'm afraid I could never learn to be a competent woodsman,\u201d said Ben.\u201cIt is born in the Indians.It is as easy for us Abenakis to learn the language of tr: wilds of nature as it is for you tc valk the streets of Montreal.\u201d \u201cYou are absolutely right, Dan, and what a wonderful education it is to know nature in her elements.\u201d Three more days they lingered, living on trout and muskrat, and then, at the crack of dawn on the fourth morning, Dan and Ben, at the same instant, jumped from their comfortable bed of cat tails and balsam boughs.\u201cHe's come,\u201d whispered Dan, as the blood-curdling screams of the panther echoed through the pines.The fire was nearly out.Grabbing their guns, which lay between them, they waited, breathless, trying to pierce with their vision the dark shades under the heavy growth of pines and balsams.Now a swaying of the balsam branches attracted Dan's sharp eyes.not over twenty-five yards from them.\u201cBe ready, Ben, when I shoot.You must finish him before he finishes us,\u201d whispered Dan, The big cat was crouching for another leap to a nearby tree, his long tail swining from side to side.Both men were expert shots, which gave them perfect confidence in their ability to hit the fatal spot\u2014the panther's brain.Like those of a house- cat.ready to spring on a cornered mouse, the panther\u2019s claws worked on the bark of the tree, as he prepared himself for his next leap.Dan was ready, and as the animal landed not mre than forty feet from the men, on the trunk of a leaning ash, Dan took quick aim.\u201cNow, Ben, give it to \u2018im.\u201d Simultaneously, the reports rang out.With another piercing scream the huge cat clung by his sharp claws to the tree trunk for nearly a minute, giving Ben another good chance, which he improved with a quick shot, and slowly the brute relaxed his hold, and fell headlong to the ground.\u201cWell done,\u201d said Seagraves.\u201cHe sure did give us a good chance,\u201d said Dan.\u201cAnd now I suppose we can be climbing out of here, eh, Dan?\u201d \u201cI think, Ben, we had best remain a couple more days.This old beast may possibly have a mate nearby.If so.I can find her in a day or two.It will be much better to kill her than have her follow us up.and pounce down on our backs from a tree.However, I think the old brute is alone in his travels.CHAPTER XXVI The extra delay was a great disappointment to Seagraves.He knew now that he wanted to be near little Petol, as he imagined that she and her mother might be in great danger, alone there with no male protection.At last he had to voice his feelings.\u201cDan, don't you think Mrs.Barn- tre and Petol are in grave danger, alone for so long a time?\u201d \u201cNo, Ben, I would not have left them, had I thought there was any danger.You know the camp is solid, and they have plenty to eat, and plenty of wood nearby, and they are both as good as men in the woods.\u201d ~All right, Dan, I am perfectly willing to accept your good judgment.You surprise me daily with your wonderful practical education, which cannot be acquired from text books.\u201d \u201cTis nothing but a daily observance with eyes and ears while in the forest,\u201d said Dan.\u201cI expect you are right, but the man brought up in the confines of the cities are incapable of accruing this education by simple observance.It is beyond their narrow perceptions of life.\u201d \u201cReally Mr.Seagraves, I think you are magnifying our primitive methods of living in the wilderness.\u201d \u201cNot at all, Dan.Naturally, you, having spent your life in the wilderness, do not realize the handicap you have worked under, and the value you have received in return.\u201d Another day was spent fishing and spearing muskrats, and next morning Dan circled wide in the forest but found no signs of another cat.He skinned the big panther, and also his muskrats.\u201cWe will start at daylight tomorrow,\u201d said Dan, \u201cand swing to the northwest.We ought to make the trip back in two or three days.\u201d \u201cI am glad to hear that.To tell the truth, I could appreciate a pan- ful of Mrs.Barntre's griddle cakes for a change.Hope we find them comfortable and all right.\u201d At early dawn, they bade farewell to their bough camp, and each carried a pack of about twenty pounds of trout.+ * * * Mrs.Barntre and Petol had no thoughts of being lonesome, or afraid in the absence of the men.With an axe they chopped down a brown ash tree and, after removing the bark, pounded the wood until each year's growth flacked and separated, and pulling the flat strips apart they had the material for several baskets, Next they searched out à good sized soft maple tree and, hewing off the rough outer bark, scraped the soft pulpy inner bark, and steeped it in a kettle of water.This liquid, after boiling several hours, made an indelible, purple colored ink.and from the inside hark of the hemlock they made, in the same manner, a dark red liquid.With these colorings they made some very artistic little baskets.Petol had discovered a flat on an old beaver meadow.which was covered with sweet grass.Although the grass was buried in snow, when uncovered it was quite green, and retained its aromatic fragrance.Wth this grass, they wove picturesque little handles for the baskets.\u201cYou know, my mother, I told Seagraves I would show him some fancy Indian baskets some time, and now.when he comes, I can show them.\u201d \u201cBen Seagraves is a smart man, and I see plainly he has covetous eyes on you, my daughter.\u201d \u201cOh, mother, I know Mr.Sea- graves is very intelligent, and I admire him very much, but there is a wide gulf between us.I do not care for him, and he, I am sure, does not want me: and I have a secret in my heart which no one knows, and which will some time break my foolish heart, yet I cannot help it.\u201d \u201cCan you not trust your mother with your secret?\u201d \u201cSome time, perhaps, but not yet, my mother.\u201d The days passed quickly with the busy Indians.Peto! kept a fishing hole open in the creek, where she succeeded in catching a fine mess of trout nearly every day.She also Scattered crumbs of meat for the economical electric summers to come.Valleyfield - St.Remi chick-a-dees, and they became so intimate that often they would light on her shoulder and pick crumbs from her outstretched hand.A pair of flying squirrels were also among her pets.Sailing from tall tree tops, they would drop noiselessly into the snow in front of the camp, and beg for morsels as Petol threw them out.The first night after they started on their return journey found Dan and Seagraves building a sleeping camp beside a little spring, which Dan thought flowed into the Maurice River.Next morning they traveled due west, and at sundown came to again made camp.Since the fugitives had taken to the raft, no further signs had been discovered.\u201cBen, I am quite sure the renegades did not swing east or north, or we would have found some trace.My opinion is that they rafted up the Maurice as far as they could pole the heavy raft, and then struck westerly, and the current has carried the raft back down the river.\u201d \u201cWell, I have no reason to think differently, Dan, and your diagnosis of the situation looks to me quite plausible.\u201d Three days later Petol walked serenely into the cabin.\u201cMother, they are coming.The bluejays just told me.\u201d \u201cAh, Petol, the bluejays might be telling of something else coming.Be prepared for enemies as well as friends.Wait inside until you can be sure what is coming.\u201d Petol, always optimistic and cheerful, felt sure it was Uncle Dan and Mr.Seagraves, but obediently waited inside, peeking through a crack in the heavy door, meanwhile.Another minute, and she swung the door wide.\u201cOh, Uncle Dan, I have known you were coming for the last fifteen minutes.\u201d \u201cAnd what caused you to be so ing.Healthful.Convenient.Quality guaranteed.There is no time to be lost in deciding what method of refrigeration is going to serve you this summer.Are you going to depend on the out-of-date,

Whitton sold the property in question to Charles Berger by deed before H.A.A, Brault, N.P.the 28th of July, 1879, registered 6th Sept.1879, 12411.By deed registered No.14506, Charles Berger sold\u2019 to Wm.B.Cameron in January, 1883 before G.R.W.Kittson, Notary.Cameron was evidently common as to property with his wife, Elizabeth Gardner.BY her Will she left everything to him.The Cadastre for the County of Huntingdon came into force in 1888 and the subsequent history will be disclosed by the Registrar's Certificate.Dictating at present from memory, Cameron sold to Holiday, Holiday sold to the three Miss Watts, and the three Miss Watts died successively, leaving wills, if I remember rightly, all executed before me (D.M.R.) The property eventually devolved to the person from whom I am buying.Mrs.Van Vliet.General Observations When Mrs.Davidson and her son sold to Ruston in 1873, they declared that James Davidson had held the property for over thirty years.Malcolm McNaughton, aged 85.told me on March 5, 1932, that James Davidson at one time was a candidate for parliamentary honours.I; of course know that his nephew, Sir Charles P.Davidson.about the time of Confederation, was a candidate against Julius Scriver.Mr.McNaughton also told me that there was at one time a store on the property run by Davidson.The

west of them.They decided to try for a moose before making their exploring trip.Dan wanted moosehide snowshoes, and the camp needed more meat.Ben would have liked two more weeks in camp; not because he needed the extra two weeks for rest.No, he was enjoying the captivating little Peto! and, strange to say, his heart beat faster when in conversation with her.Dan had made a moose call, and early one morning just before Christmas the two men started for the moose herd.Evidently, these moose had been hunted before.as they were quite wild and wary.Dan was experienced in their modes of action and, after a great deal of maneuvering, managed to get in a shot, and Ben emptied his six-shooter into the big\u2019 animal's body, but the moose did not drop at once.Bellowing with pain, he ran for several miles, and at last succumbed from loss of blood.The men were close behind, following his trail.It was nearly dark when they finished skinning and dressing the moose, Dan cut the meat into chunks as big as he could carry, also throwing a hind quarter over his shoulder.Ben rolled up the hide and strapped it on his back, and they started for camp.It being dark, the bluejays did not tell Petol of their approach.The next day the men made several trips, bringing in the meat, and then worked on the hide, preparing it for use in making snowshoes.In the evening, Petol brought out her artistic little baskets and displayed them to Seagraves\u2019 admiring eyes.Ben had seen many Indian made baskets in Montreal, but none as beautiful as these, he thought.Petol was working on another ornament which she kept concealed.It was for a special purpose, which was a part of the secret she had told her mother was in her heart.When finished, it was a crown with a wreath woven around it, and in front, like the vizor of a cap, she had woven the North Star, with a narrow circle around it, to hold it firmly in its place.She proudly exhibited it to her mother, but to no one else, and then packed it carefully in the bottom of her little pack basket.From the remnants of the moose kide, Mrs.Barntre and Petol made four pairs of substantial moccasins.Cold weather was settling down over the north country.A storm was brewing.A strong east wind came singing through the pines, and the sky became dark, and at about three in the afternoon, a few scattered flakes of snow came haltingly through the openings between the pine boughs.The men worked steadily on their snowshoes.The moosehide had to be tanned by a quick process, known to all Abenakis Indians, and then thoroughly dried, and manipulated until soft and pliable, then soaked in moose, or bear oil, and dried again.Then it was ready for stringing on the ash bows.(To be continued) Founded by British Royalty William and Mary

your poeme AL) Gan .summer cottage or camp.\u201d Home and School Co-Operation .An address recently given by Miss Mildred Clark, BA.Howick Consolidated School Ladies, I am very pleased to be invited to and to be able to accept the invitation to speak this afternoon, my ideas concerning \u201cHome and School Co-operation.\u201d Obviously our school must work with the home.and vice-versa, if a complete success is the aim in educating youth.There's an old saying \u201cToo many cooks spoil the broth.\u201d That is the case when each cook works to make the broth in her own pet way.but if.on the other hand.one aids another, what a delicious product may be effected.So with education, the result of that effort on the part of parents and teachers, to develop and strengthen the innate abilities and potentialities of a child.First of all.just how should Home and school work together?What are the things to be accomplished?(1) Ultimately our aims are: Citizens with right thought; citizens with right feeling; and citizens with right action.(2) Civic efficiency.(3) Individualism\u2014Boys and girl with initiative, will power, skill, ren son and knowledge.(4) Boys and girls who know how to.and do use leisure time efficiently.(5) Boys and girls who are physically sound.(6) Boys and girls with social virtues: Promptness, regularity.industry.fidelity, honesty and truthfulness.(7) Domestic efficiency: Pride a» responsibility in home and school buildings.Let us consider these things, one by one, and definitely form a practical point of view.At infancy a child is a mass of cells capable of consuming food and increasing in size and organization, with power to do work and store up energy.A small child\u2019s brain is not much underdeveloped in size and weight.and, it is a fact.that at the age of seven.the brain is full (or very nearly) in size any weight.It is in organization of cell\u201d and fibres that it lacks development.It is our task to organize that brain, so it will produce right thoughts, actions.and thus right habits.Parents.it is true.are probably in actual con 1 tact with their children less time than is the school.but please note this: a child remembers one-tenth of what he is told; three-tenths c¥% what he sees: five-tenths of what he has heard: seven-tenths of what he tells you and nine-tenths of what he himself does.So in matters of morale and conduct which should and musi be exemplified at home.it is not enough to tell the boy or girl what t do.but see that he or she acts ac cording to the advice given.The ave rage teacher means little sentimentally to the child, and so it is the parent who has time, care and the most powerful influence.and must train the child to behave.It is the responsibility of the school.to teach that child who does behave, and I assure you, that in a full class-room there iz little time to bother with the unruly, impolite.and ill-mannered.unwilling worker.Now to come to the point of individualism: Every child is different and must be dealt with in different manners.Some must be punished (though I do not sponsor corporal punishment), some talked to.and others simply regarded with displeasure.It is my belief that if punishment is necessary it should be administered by the teacher without parental interference, since the child has been sent to be under the management of the school.There are also children who are allowed no freedom at home.are scarcely allowed to think for themselves.This makes them mentallv inefficient and overdependent.also a most difficult specimen among other children, They cry easily.and, having none at school to pet and pamper them, they are generally unpopular with teacher and fellow pupils.Allow the child at home to exercise\u2014under guidance\u2014 his own skill, reason and initiative.and in the point of leisure time do not unreasonably deprive the pupil of entertainment to \u201cCome in to your lessons, this minute, Johnny.\u201d for very soon you will see the lessons being regarded in the light of punishment and heartily detested as such.6\" for this How's that for value?You can\u2019t beat it.You can't even equal it.Save yourself a lot of grief and worry.* Come in and see the great Pathfinder Tread Goodyear.0\u2019Connors Inc.Huntingdon, Que.There is, however.a right and a wrong use of leisure and if a child is destructive at home 50 will he be at school, and now and again parents of such children may expect something like this \u201cTo four window panes broken by John\u2014$1.00.Assignments are often neglected a: home-work, so it is obvious that the home must insist on systematic « ganization of a child's time.Set a study period.or better still, allow the child to set his own period.an then try to make him feel responsibility enough to see that he uses that period.and so keeps his work up-to- date, The home will offer one of its greatest services to the school if it does this.Now let us consider physical soundness.The government arranges to have a nurse visit the schools for the purpose of examining children and so facilitating the profno- tion of health.The Red Cross is doing a great deal and so must also th home.There are present often su devitalizing drains as adenoids, affected tonsils, teeth or eyes.The child should be attended to at once and it is for that purpose that a report from the nurse is sent home, though it often seems that parents fail to realize that fact.Now we come to the social virtue which, although last, are by no means least: Promptness: How can the pupil be prompt when the pârent has no interest in his being so?The case of regularity, unless through illness or necessity at home, parents must see that the child attends regularly.or else give up the hope of the teacher accomplishing a miracle and bringing him through his work.Incident - ally.in case of absence, regulations require that the teacher be presented with an excuse stating the reason for absence.It is her right to have it an?she is very grateful to the parents who take interest enough to see that she gets it.Under the same heading we have: Fidelity, honesty and truthfulness.These three are really the greatest problems in the school.It is not honest for parents to do homework for pupils, and teachers thank them not to try.It's the old story ot little Isaac bringing home the problem: \u201cIf a man can walk three miles in one hour.how long will it take him to walk fifty miles?\u201d and father Abie starting off to see how long it actually does take, with the result that little Isaac is absent from school the following day, and the typical excuse arrives: \u201cIsaac wasn't at school yesterday.Please excuse him.And oblige.Mother Bergenstein.\u201d No reason again, for absence, being given.No more is it honest to write out or encourage the writing out of little notes for Bob to have in his pocket during exams, or to jot down a few important points on his, finger nafls or the palm of his hand.Help us to check this cheating.Lastly is the problem of domestic efficiency.i.e.making the pupil respect and take pride in the buildings \u2014home or school allke.The pupi.who is taught respect.pride ana neatness at home is no trouble in this way.but we feel that such attitudes must be set up at home: an: too, will you co-operate with teacher in guaging those parents who talk over school matters and schoolteachers before their school children.It sets up contempt in the pupil's mind towards the school and creates a great deal of unpleasant experience for the teacher.Just in closing I shall tell you that in certain Montreal schools where teachers have actually entered into co-operation with parents, juvenile delinquency has decreased

garden.The children were home from school then and might as well be out of mischief cutting up potatoes or planting peas.In many parts of the eountry, this was a good average time ns it was warm enough to risk beans, corn and melons and yet not so late but what the early things like peas, carrots and lettuce would still have a chance.Everything went in one afternoon in many cases, and all was ready for the table at about the same time.It was sort of & feast or a famine of fresh vegetables.But that is all changed today.Doctors have finally convinced the public of the vital necessity of green things in the diet at all times and experienced gardeners have demonstrated that it is quite possible to produce these green things for at least six months of the year.The whole secret is to make successional plantings of the same vegetables, starting just as soon as the ground is fit to work, with the peas, spinach, radish, cress and lettuce, continuing with these about three times at intervals of ten days and gradually adding carrots, beets, beans, head lettuce, cabbage, Cos lettuce, Chinese cabbage, tomatoes, egg plants, lima beans, all types of corn with something going in right up to July.Consider corn for example.There are some very carly types, like Sunshine, Early Market and Bantam, which allow production even in the north.Along with these there are late maturing sorts which prolong the season at the other end, so that with different varieties and planting at three different times instead of once it is quite possible to spread the harvesting period over months.Even frost need not interfere if celery, green tomatoes on the vines, Brus- sell\u2019's Sprouts, rhubarb roots, carrots and beets in sand, and other things are properly stored in the fall.Beans The bean is another vegetable which should be spread more over the season, One can put in the first few rows after all danger of frost is over and continue planting at weekly intervals until the first of July.There arc several types.There are the dwarf and the pole sorts, and among the ordinary varieties the yellow and the green, In recent years, people are turning more to the green bean which they consider of higher quality than the other.One can also plant Limas which should not go in until the weather really warms up, and there is also the broad bean which goes in fairly early.This broad bean makes a delicious vegetable, the pod being shelled like peas.The only thing to guard against with it are the aphids which attack the plants at flowering time.Spraying with nicotine sulphate (or Black Leaf 40) a few times will ward off this pest.Window Boxes It is now time to think of the window boxes and hanging pots which will adorn verandis and house fronts this Summer.There are two or three essentials here.The box or pot must be strong and firmly attached he- cause it is going to be heavy.Then too, there must be very rich soil.with plenty of fertilizer, as this sort of gardening is very intensive.Of equal importance is molsture, and this must be provided dally, and sometimes twice a day, as the evaporation, for all sides of the box or pot are exposed to the air, is exceedingly rapid.The window-box should be as long as the window and should be supported and arranged so that the top of it is almost flush with the window-sill, Otherwise, the foliage of the plants will soon fill up most of the window.There must be holes In the bottom of box and pot to provide drainage, and also a layer of gravel, cinders, broken crockery or similar material for the same purpose.If one can secure a supply of well-rotted manure, put this in next, and finish with a top layer of rich soil.If there is no manure, use a fairly heavy application of a good garden fertilizer and repeat every month.The box, which should be at least seven inches deep and from elght to ten inches Let the Strength of the Mutual Protect You and Yours ® $100 monthly from age 50, as long as you live (guaranteed

game of quoits is a descendant of the ancient Greek discus throwing, with two differences: the quolt is ring-shaped, flat on one side and rounded on the other, and the throwing test is one of accuracy rather than distance.There are few traces of it in Europe.It apparently originated in the border country of England and Scotland.It was one of the games prohibited in the reigns of Edward III and Richard II, in favor of archery.It is played with two pins 18 yards apart driven into the ground with one inch exposed, situated in the center of a circle of stiff clay three feet in diameter.Quoits are of any welght but usually of nine pounds, They must not exceed 84 inches in diameter or be less than 3'4 inches In bore.nor more than 2's inches In web.Players must stand within (4's feet of the center of the end and at one side.Each player has two quoits.In championship matches, quoits more than 18 inches from the pin are called foul and removed.Measurements are made from the middie of the pin to the edge of the quoit.Those on top are measured first.Quoits landing with the fiat side up are fouls.\u201cFresh from the Gardens\u201d you can\u2019t beat PEP KeLroce's PEP Bran Flakes have

impossible.Definite tests and actual experience have shown that fertilizer broadcast on top of the soil will not give nearly as good results as will the same fertilizer drilled into the soil where the nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash may go into solution and immediately benefit the growing crop.The exact placing of fertilizers must be determined for each class of crops and for each general type of soil.It has been pretty well established that fertilizer drilled into the soil for grains gives better results than an equal quantity of the same fertilizer broadcast and worked into the soil, This especially true of phosphate fertilizers, The apparent reason for this result is that the drilled fertilizer is placed at a uniform depth in damp soil and complete reversion is avoided.For grain, the tube application as accomplished by the ordinary grain drill fertilizer equipment gives satisfactory application up to 400 lbs, per acre: , For potatoes, it is pretty well established that fertilizer gives best results if it is sown on either side of the seed pieces, but not in contact with them, and on a level with the seed pieces \u2014neither above nor below them.For turnips and mangels grown on the drill, it is good practice to broadcast the fertilizer on the land just before drilling it up.When the land is drilled up the fertilizer is gathered to the centre of ta drill or row where it may be of early help to the young crop.Get the fertilizer down into the damp soil.Don't let much of it come in direct contact with the seed or seed piece.In the application of ground limestone the Ohio State University recommends 800 Ibs.or as much as the grain drill will sow, from the fertilizer box of the grain drill when clover is seeded.The clover seed should if possible, be run down the sam- spout as the lime.Odd Georgetown Fence The fence in Georgetown made of barrels of old muskets is at the north-west corner of Twenty-eighth and P.streets.The musket barrels are topped with cast-iron lance heads\" After the War of 1812, realizing that Georgetown had rendered special services, the government, too poor to make any expenditure, invited the citizens of Georgetown to help themselves from the scrap heap of iron and steel in the navy yard.This accounts for the fence and for the presence of the United States coat of arms on the iron work of many old Georgetown Buildings

successful events of the kind ever held in that part of Canada, Bridge- view Farm.the home of Melvin Begg & Son, situated two miles from Moose Creek, Ontario, was the scene of a dispersion sale of the celebrated herd Bridgeview Ayrshires on Wednesday afternoon.During the past few years, Mr.Begg and his son shared in the rental of a 200 acre farm and were thus enabled to increase their herd to a much greater extent than would have been the case had only the home farm been available.The rented farm was sold recently and this left them facing the problem of reducing the herd to fit the pasturage and stabling available on Bridgeview Farm.They therefore decided to offer the entire herd for sale at public auction, with the exception of a few unblemished cows and several young calves as the nucleus of a new herd.The Bridgeview herd was started by Victor Begg, father of the present senior partner, in 1893, and was taken over by the latter some twenty- one years ago.In 1929 the firm became known as Melvin Begg & Son as the result of Daniel Begg being taken into partnership.Delightful weather attracted a large number and with L.E.Franklin, of Toronto, as auctioneer; David Hunter, Fieldman for the Canadian Ayrshire Breeders\u2019 Association, as announcer, and Mr.Frank Napler, of Ottawa, secretary-treasurer of the Ayrshire Breeders\u2019 Association, as treasurer of the sale, everything passed off most successfully and the total amount of the sale on cows was about $7,000.Seventy-seven cents a bushel for No.1 Northern wheat, Winnipeg, is the crop price guaranty offered by the International Harvester Company of Canada, Limited, to its Canadian customers.Charles R.Morrison, of Chicago, Director of Canadian Sales, in a statement issued at Winnipeg said: \u201cOur Company is convinced that the reluctance of the farmers to buy implements required for the more economical production and harvesting of their crops is due to the present unsatisfactory wheat prices; and we believe that if they are assured of higher prices for their wheat they will not hesitate to purchase the modern cost-reducing machines which they now need more than ever.\u2018\u2019The purpose of this offer is not merely to stimulate sales of Harvester products but also to give substantial evidence of our faith that wheat prices must and will soon improve.\u201cThis offer is similar to the plan recently announced by the Harvester Company in the United States.The wheat price guaranteed for Canada is 77 cents, Winnipeg, for No.1 Northern wheat instead of 70 cents, Chicago.for No.2 Hard in the United States, the difference representing the average spread between the two grades.\u201cWhile this price guaranty is based ron wheat, it is not necessary that a farmer raise wheat for market in order to take advantage of our offer.Any farmer in Canada, regardless of what he raises as his principal crop, is entitled to purchase McCormick- Deering machines under the favorable terms of this plan.We hope it will be generally understood that there is no element of barter involved in this offer.We do not propose to accept wheat for machines but do offer a guaranty of the price of wheat at the time of 1932 settlements.\u201cOn notes given and maturing in 1932, representing not more than 40 per cent of the purchase price, there will be endorsed the equivalent number of bushels of wheat, computed on the basis of 77 cents a bushel, Winnipeg, for No.1 Northern.If the average Winnipeg market quotation for the five-day period prior to and including the maturity date of the note is less than 77 cents, the purchaser will be credited in his settlement with an amount representing the price differential multiplied by the number of bushels endorsed on the note.\u201cI take this opportunity of reiterating what the company said in its recent annual report for 1931\u2014that the present abnormally low prices of farm products could not long prevail; also that only a slight improvement in prices for farm products would have an important effect in correcting the vicious circle into which all business has been forced in the period through which we are now passing.\u2014Advt.NAVIGABLE WATERS PROTECTION ACT R.S.C.Chapter 140 Beauharnois Light, Heat and Power Company hereby gives notice that it has, under section 7 of the sald Act, deposited with the

year 1832.A meeting of the directors of the Live Stock Breeders\u2019 Association was immediately called and it was decided to pay 709% of the prize money as listed in the prize lst to all cattle, sheep, swine, and poultry classes, this is an increase of 207, over what was stated would be paid when the prize list was sent out about two weeks ago.The harness horse classes will be paid on a basis of 759; of the money listed.This increase in prize money will again assure a large exhibit of lve stock for the coming exhibition, as already several new exhibitors have their entries in, among some of the new exhibitors being: J.W.Shaw, Point Aux Trembles with 26 entries in ponies and light horses; G.H.Cooke of Plattsburgh, N.Y.ponies and- horses; Geo.L.Telfer, Paris, Ont., Guernsey cattle and sheep; Woodhill Farm, Elizabethtown, N.Y,, Ayrshire cattle.The ladies department is also assured of a large exhibit from inquiries received for entry forms, etc., already several entrles in fancy work are in, among others being a large entry from Toronto, Ont., Lunenburg, Ont.and other points.It would seem that our new Industrial Hall is going to prove a great attraction for our ladies.The free

of wives, forbidden doors and box lids abound in literature, from the myth of Pandora down, and it is quite probable that the arch-villain Bluebeard is merely a compilation of many bad men of legend and folk tale all rolled into one.If credit for inspiring this famous character, however, is to be given any one man, he was Gilles de Raiz, one of Joan of Arc's generals and a marshal of France during the Fifteenth century, whose villainies make Blue- beards appear a meek and home-lov- ing husband.Gilles inherited a large fortune and political prominence; the first he squandered.the second he disgraced.When bankrupt he turned to alchemy.sought the favor, so they say, of the devil through black magic.made human sacrifice of innumerable little boys and girls, and is said to have been the one to betray Joan of Arc into the hands of the English.The church finally convicted him of sorcery.and he was burned at the stake for his atrocious cruelties in 1440.The story-book version of Bluebeard first appeared in the famous French collection of Per- rault in 1697.MUNICIPALITY OF DUNDEE Road Repair Tenders Tenders for the repair of the Mec- Millan Road from the gate of Miss Murchison

Good Health maga- gine.\u201cWhen I first used ultra-violet irradiation for the various physical disabilities of children,\u201d the article quotes the doctor as saying, \u201cI was struck with the marked improvement in the mentality in many of the cases treated.The puling, querulous, irritable, anemic, self-centred, sleepless child, who is often pot-bellied and emaciated, is transformed into a robust.well nourished and perfectly healthy little animal, full of life and: gaiety.All this happens in a few weeks.With the exception of those children who turn-out to be definitely mentally deficient, it is unusual to find one who does not show signs of both physical and mental development.\u201d The minister called Shoddie.\u201cBy the way.\u201d re remarked after a while, \u201cI was
