Facilities Splendid Record of the Halifax Graving Dock Com Ltd.Now Operated by Halifax Shipyards, Ltd Has Modernized Plant on an Extensive Scale\u2014S.S.\u201cPrince David\u201d Reconditioning Well Under Way Forty-five years in the service of shipping i - ord of the drydock at Halifax, Nova Scotia, ne re, by the Halifax Shipyards, Ltd.At first glance, it would appear that this is not at all unusual, that it is not a record that calls for comment.But when one considers that in 1887 \u2014the year in which construction of this dock com- menced\u2014the steamship had not fully come into its own and that the sailing ship was putting up its last strenuous fight for ocean freights, one realizes that, after all, this drydock has a real record of service.Glancing casually at the files of the local newspapers of that year, we find that the waterfront directory on an ordinary day listed three full-rigged ships, two barques, one barquantine, seven brigantines, 120 schooners, and only two steamers.So steam was not by any means the factor then that it is to-day.The marine railway at Dartmouth (on the opposite side of Halifax harbor), then in existence, could accommodate ships as big as 3,000 tons, and many shipping men thought at the time that a drydock Was not yet essential.ut there were men of vision in Halifax then, as now.As f , .far back as 1875 a drydock was talked of for the port.Halifax was a naval station the headquarters for the British North Atlantic Squadron, and the Admiralty wanted a drydock here.So did the city which, furthermore, stipulated that if any were built it must be \u201cbig enough to accommodate the orgost warship afloat.\u201d A company known as the Halifax Graving Dock ompany was formed in England with a capital of $1,000 000,000, $ - dies were promised as follows: , and subst From the City of Halifax\u2014$10,000 a year for 20 years.From the Dominion Government\u2014810,000 a year for 20 years.From the Imperial Government\u2014$10,000 a year for 20 years.The above subsidies are not in existence now.The English company made a contract for the building of the drydock with S.Pearson & Son of Westminster, London, the famous engineering firm, who associated with themselves the late 8.M.»Brookfleld, of Halifax, who became the dynamic force of the whole undertaking and who was the managing resident director of the Halifax Graving Dock until it was taken over 12 years ago by the Halifax Shipyards, Lid.The first sod for the construction of the drydock was turned In May, 1887.and on September 20, 1889, the Halifax Graving Dock was open for business.The first ship to enter was HMS.Canada, a composite steel, fron and wooden corvette of 2,770 tons, The dock, in accordance with the British Admiralty's requirements, was big enough to accommodate H.MS.Inflexible, then the wildest warship in the world.It Is an interesting commentary on the drydock Godmanchester Whacks Taxes To 3.75 Mills Godmanchester Council met on Sept.6th,

Editorial Page Wednesday, September 7th, 1932 The Huntingdon Gleaner Published by the Huntingdon Gleaner Inc.ADAM L.SELLAR, President and Editor.Brown Bldg., Huntingdon, Que.Members, Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association; Ontarie-Quebec Newspaper Association; Class A.Weekly Group; Ottawa and St.Lawrence Valley Press Ass'n.Huntingdon, Que., Wednesday, September 7th, 1932 Quebec's Minor Deficit For ten years the Province of Quebec has repeatedly announced a surplus at the end of its fiscal year, and this year we hear of the reverse being the caseé The deficit is not a tremendous one, being but $584,728.97 and had the times been normal a surplus would certainly have been announced.The gross revenues of the Province were reduced $4,689,600.20, therefore it would not have been amiss had the treasury reported a deficit of nigh $5,000,000, but in place the Government curtailed its expenditures in every possible manner so that the deficit registered only $584,- 728.97.The losses were incurred chiefly in the setback of sales of spirituous liquors which is a consummation devoutly to be approved of by the temperance people.Theoretically the Province is financially short, but the people of the Province who did not spend so much money in liguor are just that much better off; so perhaps we should not say our Province is financially in the red for the year just ended.There was a falling off of $4,000,000 caused by the slackening off of building and the lesser stumpage dues collected from the lumbermen.The recent Imperial Conference provided for improvements to be made in the export lumber trade, so it is but reasonable to look for a recovery within a short time.The revenue for estates has naturally reduced for the holdings of every man have been reduced in value, consequently the smaller taxes to be collected.Taxes on foods, amusements and gasoline showed increases, All will endorse the idea increasing the revenue from amusements, and many will frown upon the taxation levied upon food and perhaps gasoline.Yet the government has to have money to operate, therefore we must content ourselves and pay the piper for the present at least ar until other avenues of revenue produce greater amounts.The criticism\u2019 that has been directed against the Provincial Government on account of unpaid obligations was answered by the Premier who pointed out that many of the works were undertaken, even in the year of trying financial conditions which ran into large figures, but the understanding in many cases was that payment would only be made in the following year.Millions were spent on unemployment relief, consequently great care had to be exercised in administering the finances.Premier Taschereau paid a high tribute to the Canadian Banks because of the manner they have increased their help to business, and to governments, and municipalities.He characterized them as Canada's best asset.No Sense of Raising Prices The expression used by John W.Dafoe.editor of the Winnipeg Free Press, that \u201cThere is no sense in raising prices and ending depression if in five or six years we are deep in the mire again.\u2019 will be broadcast from coast to coast this week and will be commented upon by hundreds of papers.Mr.Dafoe is recognized as one of Canada\u2019s greatest newspaper men and an outstanding authority on almost any public question.On Friday he was the guest speaker at the Canadian National Exhibition Press Day luncheon.Before hundreds of newspaper men he talked on this topic.Mr.Dafoe is a veteran editor and has witnessed seven depressions, and has noted each depression to be worse than its predecessor, and likewise the period of prosperity in between times.No panacea was offered other than he thought some method must be found to break this rhythm, otherwise he doubted if our capitalistic civilization can stand the strain.Mr.Dafoe credited a good deal of Canada's present hard times to the fact that our population is now more metropolitan than rural.The man on the farm ekes out a living irrespective of the times, although he may not have luxuries as he sometimes wishes whilst the man working in the cities is destitute and is confronted with rents and no employment.Furthermore, there must be no war and no reckless interference with international trade if we are to avoid further depression.The moral wreckage of a depression is greater than that of a war, said Mr.Dafoe.Here in the Chateauguay Valley we see few men begging from door to door or travelling as hoboes, yet in other parts of our country, especially in Western Canada scores of such men are to be found travelling on practically every freight train or congregating in cities.Our outstanding Canadian journalist believes we are \u201cPassing the buck\u201d in Canada and creating a great problem for generations to come in so fostering an army of wandering hoboes who may ultimately become criminals.The issuing of money as a panacea he believed was lunacy.It is quite evident Mr.Dafoe does not wholly agree with many solutions that are being exercised today and it will be interesting to note what cognizance is taken from his publicly expressed views.A Tribute to R.J.R.Nelson R.J.R.Nelson (Bob) is a son of Huntingdon and is looked upon in Halifax as \u201cthe man of the Halifax\u201d and responsible for a great deal of the progress that has befallen the Maritime Provinces in recent years.Elsewhere in this issue will be found a lengthy article taken from the \u201cNautical Gazette.\" The article tells of the progress and development that has taken place in the Halifax Ship Yards of which Bob Nelson is the General Manager.True to form, it is quite evident the writer of this article got a good deal of his information from Bob Nelson, who refrained from accepting or having any credit for the development credited to himself.From other sources we have gathered that a great deal of this industrial development first developed and was visioned in the mind of our Bob.His vision showed that Canada needed this development, and as a result of his initiative we find him figuring in practically every progressive and aggressive movement in the Maritimes.The Gleaner is certainly proud of hearing of this son of Hunting- don doing what he has done to date, and we know that he will continue giving a good account of himself, and that what prosperity and development takes place in the commerce of the Maritime province of Nova Sco- tia, the name Nelson will figure prominently.Nelson proved himself worthy of promotion when first employed by the Richelieu & Ontario Navigation Co.in Montreal.He was a successful administrator of the finances for the Halifax Relief Fund, after the explosion and disaster of 1917.He was then introduced into the Halifax Ship Yards business because of his success in administering the Relief Finances.He proved his ability to secure good men about him and how to get their worth.Canada needs more such Nelsons, and in the life of Nova Scotia the name Bob Nelson will stand out as prominently as any of its notable statesmen or founders.A New World Mr.H.G.Wells says \u201cIt is not that man may plan and make a new world for himself; he has to do so or be overwhelmed by his own undisciplined devices and impulses.\u201d In those words we find the motive for intelligent thought all over the world groping for light in our social darkness.All kinds of remedies have been suggested but we know \u201cthe new world\u201d will be, and should be, of slow growth in our western civilizations.Russia has kept at an ideal.Her impetuosity has caused an untold suffering and is an example to us.It is generally believed that western \u201cstates will progress to their ideal more slowly and surely.The belief of the Victorian socialist, that the rich want to keep the poor, poor, does not hold good to-day.Bankers, industrialists, and statesmen were never so anxious for more equal distribution of wealth.The machine age has made it necessary.But how is it to be done?How can our system be revised so that all can be employed and the worker share in the profits.Equal pay for all is not desirable.After immediate personal needs are satisfied the inequalities of men's needs are apparent.The use of intelligence, initiative and creative power varies because the mental equipment of men varies, Mechanical invention has changed a world of want to a world of plenty.Society finds itself in a dilemma.How can it distribute the abundance it has created?Unemployment continues.In our state is a large number of non-productive people.We feed them, but their purchasing power is nil.Two hundred years ago they would have died.Famine and pestilence would have raged among them.To-day they live.We congratulate ourselves, openly boasting of our generosity, and victory over nature.The job Is barely half done.Before us lies a tremendous work.Capital does not need to be forced-to distribute profits.It is willing to do 20, as soon as leadership and social planning creste new financial machinery to distribute wealth, Chronicled News Bits Specially Written for The Huntingdon Gleaner Fewer Fan Letters Just before the new postage rates went into effect the post office at Hollywood, Calif, was handling an average of about 885,000 movie fan letters monthly.And this was only 20 per cent of the number received before the depression broke in 1829.Three-cent postage is expected to cut this mall still more.The letters are delivered at the studios where the stars are employed.There clerks separate and tie them into bundles each bearing the name of the star addressed.Actors receive about 40 per cent of these fan letters and actresses 60 per cent.Tom Mix gets more than any other man.Few of the letters actually are read by the movie people but are taken care of and answered by special secretaries.Nearly all stars have discontinued sending pictures free Lo their admirers.This expense cost Mary Pickford $80,000 in one year.Informal Battle of Plums The two fruit dealers shook hands ruefully.\u201cAnd that,\u201d they said, \u201ctakes whatever the prize may be.\u201d And this is how it all began, The Lindsay, Ont.fruit dealers were staging an informal battle of plums.Both started selling six-quart baskets at 17 cents.One cut the price, and the other undercut him.This kept up till one man was selling them at nine cents.He had one basket left, when he tackled the feminine bargain-hunter.\u201cThe basket alone,\u201d he said, \u201cis worth six cents.\u201d \u201cReally, she said.\u201cI'll take it.\u201d She walked over to her automobile, dumped the plums on and about the back seat.\u201cYou said this was worth six cents,\u201d she said, handing over the empty basket.\u201cGive me the money and take the basket.\u201d And with six quarts of plums for three cents, she drove away, leaving two flabbergasted fruit sellers to talk it over.Pronunciation of \u201cNewfoundland\u201d Newfoundland wants to be called \u201cHis Majesty's Oldest Colony\u2014and Newest Dominion,\u201d Hon.F.C.Alderdice, Prime Minister, told a luncheon audience at Ottawa.He was amiably correcting the description of the colony given by the chairman, who styled Newfoundland as the \u201coldest Dominion.\u201d And the Prime Minister of Ancient Colony put the accent on the \u2018New\u2019 and the \u2018land, slurring the \u2018found.\u2019 Santa's Helpers Went on Strike Thirty-five hundred of Santa Claus\u2019 helpers were called upon to stop their doll and toy making.Strangely enough the scene of their now idle workshops is not in the story-book\u2014Location\u2014the frigid clime in the region of the North Pole\u2014but in the dense-populated and now torrid area of Greater New York.The workers, members of the doll workers industrial union, responded to a strike order in an effort to enforce demands of the union for higher wages and better working conditions.Baby Given New Features Although his parents are impoverished, Roy Aurentz, 28 months old, of San Francisco, will not meet life with the deformed features with which he was born, nor with the distortion of speech to which he appeared doomed.The child of an American father and a Tahitian mother, Roy was brought here four months ago from Papeete through a fund to which Douglas Fairbanks, while visiting the island, contributed the first $100.A grotesquely divided upper lip and jaw and a cleft palate have been so cleverly mended at the children's hospital here that Roy is now a beautiful child.He is waiting at the hospital under the care of Miss Edna J.Shirpser, director of social service, to return to Tahiti.The mother sent Dr.Albert D.Davis, the attending surgeon, a bright yellow hula shirt in appreciation.She attributed the baby's deformity to prenatal influence.Shortly before Roy's birth, she said, she was spearing fish in a pool when a conger eel, about six feet long, attacked her.Frightened, she ran home and was ill for some time.Prank Caused Death James Houston, drowned in Burlington Beach canal July 31, was the victim of a cruel prank, according to evidence before a coroner's jury at Ham- iiton, Ont.Houston, only a fair swimmer, was thrown into deep water by a youth who wanted to give him a \u201cducking.\u201d Informed that efforts to identify the guilty party had falled, the jury returned a verdict that Houston had been \u201cunlawfully killed by an unknown youth.\u201d The practice of pushing people into the water as a joke is not uncommon at the beach, Speechless Child Found A man and woman, who a probate judge said should be \u201cpublicly horsewhipped,\u201d were summoned to appear in court at Gallipolis, Ohio, to explain the pitiful condition of a three-year-old boy, found speechless, half-starved, and naked, in a dark, dingy room of their house.The boy, Loren Hochter, was taken from the couple, Mr.and Mrs.Sylvester Hochter, of Addison, and was placed under treatment in the Galli County children's home.Loren, described by officials as not having had a bath for over a year, had wasted away to the weight of a year-old.With proper aourishment and care it was considered likely he would live and probably recover his speech.The boy, Mrs.Hochter said, was the illegitimate child of her husband and was placed in the upstairs room \u201cto keep him out of trouble.\u201d He was discovered there in an old wooden bed after other children in the house told neighbors they had \u201ca new baby\u201d at their home.Owns Ancient Violin It pays to read the newspapers.Fred Lavergne of Ottawa read a despatch in a paper carried by the Canadian Press from Desio, Italy.It said a man had purchased a violin for 25 cents, later discovering it to be a \u201cStradivarius,\u201d worth $50,000.Fred owned an ancient violin.He immediately made a close examination and was amazed to find the instrument bore the inscription \u201cAntonius Stradivarius-Cremenensis Facebat-Anno 17.\u201d Builds \u201cModernistic\u2019\u2019 Tombstone Carlo Formenti, 75, of Iron Mountain, Michigan, belleves in doing a thing yourself if you want it done properly.So he bullt a tombstone for his grave.From bite of highly colored crockery, colored glass and gay stones.In the center of the top Formenti has placed an alarm clock.He has instructed his children to set the clock at the exact hour and minute of his death, Prison to Congress The death of ex-Congressman Caleb Powers, of Kentucky, was reported in brief newspaper despatches the other day.Thirty years ago any news about \u2018Caleb Powers was \u201cplayed up\u201d with glaring headlines.Powers, a Republican, from Kentucky's mountains, was elected secretary of state in 1889, the same year William S.Taylor, Republican, was elected governor.William Goebel, Democratic candidate for governor, filed a contest against Taylor.The Democratic legislature declared Goebel elected.Soon afterward a shot from the office window of the secretary of state killed Goebel walking through the state house grounds.Powers was sentenced to prison for life on circumstantial evidence for the murder of Goebel.He appealed, was found gullty again, and repeated this until four trials were held, when he began his life sentence.Newspapers called it the \u201cAmerican Dreyfus\u201d case.In 1908 Powers was pardoned and to vindicate himself ran for congress.He was elected, and re-elected in 1910.In an Effort to Save Polly An attempt to save her pet parrot from death in a blazing automobile cost Mrs.Jessie Tatum, bride of two months, her life.Returning to Oxford, Miss., with her husband, a Lafayette county farmer, from her former home in St.Louis, the automobile burst into flames.The couple leaped to safety but Mrs.Tatum, the husband said, turned back to rescue the parrot and was fatally burned, Biblical Miracle Discovered Church archaeologists believe they have found at Tiberias on the Sea of Galilee, the spot where Jesus multiplied five loaves and two fishes to feed a multitude.According to tradition, a church was built at the scene of the miracle, and church ruins have been uncovered by a German priest, Father Evarist Mader, director of the German Oriental institute at Jerusalem.In an article to be published in the Illu- strazione Vaticana, a Jesuit, Father Chrysologus Spel-~ lucci, announces that the discovery corresponds to all known religious history.Ruins of a basilica were found by Father Mader under seven feet of clay.A large area of fine vividly colored mosaics was well preserved, and six illustrations will be published.The ruins show the basilica, which has three names, was 170 feet long, with a 66-foot transept.Under the altar is a stone supposed to mark the spot of the miracle.Shop-Window Model Alive A model in a Chicago dress shop window was so much dressed up that policeman William Fuller was puzzled.What puzzled him more than anything else was the fact that the model held a bag in one hand.\u201cCome out,\u201d he commanded, drawing a pistol.Out stepped James Kane, 26, a negro.In the bag, said the officer, there were six dresses and they didn't belong to Kane.He was arrested.\u2014 New Word Fangles In the New York office of Dr.Frank H.Vize- telly, noted lexicographer, are stacks of drawers filled with white cards.Each card bears a word.There are 75,000 of them, waiting admission to the ranks of good usage.Some have been waiting nearly 40 years.As each succeeding new dictionary appears new words are included that have come into sufficiently general use.Dr.Zizetelly's newest dictionary will define \u201cpineapple\u201d no longer as merely a fruit but also as a \u201cbomb\u201d derived from underworld slang.Also one definition of \u201cracket\u201d is \u201coccupation by which money is made by legal means or otherwise.\u201d Then there is racketeer\u2014\u201cone who is engaged in bootlegging, beer running or other illegal occupations.\u201d Many slang Words are included in every new volume and become respectable just because they have come into common use.But the real language of the underworld rarely gets in because it changes too frequently.As soon as the underworld discovers one of its expressions is used outside its ranks and its meaning understood, it is © dropped.Later such an expression may find its way into the dictionary, but that is after its use has been discontinued by the criminal element.ar Ordered to Eat Pets Because he spent more money on them than on his wife, and was more affectionate toward them, Nicholas Gimpel was ordered by Judge Dan G.Trude, at Chicago, to sit down and make a meal of his two pet hens and a pair of pet pigeons.\u2018The order left Gimpel in tears, for two reasons.First, he has grown attached to them through long years.Second, they've been around so long that he'll probably lose a few teeth at his assignment.Gimpel\u2019s wife, Theresa, lives in the same house with him, but has a divorce bill vending, charging cruelty.The order to eat the fowl was entered to clear the way so that Gimpel can be counted upon for support.\u201cNow,\u201d added the judge, \u201cyou alternate living in the house to avoid trouble.One of you stay there for two months, then move out for the other.Mr.Gimpel, you pay for your wife's room while she's living away.\u201d \u201cJudge,\u201d said Gimple, \u201cwhen I eat my chicks the coop will be empty.Can I sleep in it while my wife's got the house?\u201d The judge stated that would be satisfactory, and Gimple thanked him, saying that the familiar scenes about the henhouse would, In some measure, compensate for his impending bereavement.32 Miles on Stretcher Borne on a rough wooden stretcher on the shoulders of police and friends over a rough, rain- sodden, 32-mile trail, Charles Ross, 24, stricken with appendicitis, was brought to a waiting motor car on the Cottonwood House highway and rushed to hospital.The youthful Calgary prospector was stricken in the heavy bush-lands and it took 17 hours of hard travel through a pouring rain to carry him to Cottonwood House, 21 miles east of Quesnel, B.C.Ross told friends the pain had abated considerably despite the rough going through the bushy rocklands.But it Proved True .The Aniores\u2014Joseph, his wife and their six children\u2014were enjoying their first vacation for eight years at Long Branch, N.J., when Anitore met a friend from home.\u201cI hear your house burned down today,\u201d the friend said.It sounded like stupid humor to Aniore, but he telephoned home to make sure.The house had indeed burned.Aniore said he had worked all his life to make this home for his family.Athelstan \u201cAdda-Lyne\u201d The Sunshine Mission Band of the United Church held its picnic on Tuesday afternoon on the banks of the Chateauguay river, near the Lome of Mrs.Mabel Carrigan.Swimming and games were enjoyed, these being supervised: by Misces Charlotte Boyce and Muriel Mack.A picnic lunch was enjoyed and the children report a good time.The Woman's Association of the Athelstan United Church were entertained on Thursday afternoon by Mrs.E.C.Boyce and Mrs.George Boyce at their home.The attendance was not as large as usual, owing to the busy season and oppressive weather.The gathering was held on their beautiful lawn.Quilt blocks were pieced during the afternoon.Mrs.Woodside gave a splendid reading.The hostesses served a delicious supper at the close of the afternoon.A very successful food sale was held Saturday afternoon under the auspices of the Athelstan United Church Woman's Association on the lawn of Mr.F.G.Braithwaite, Hun- tingdon.The well-laden table of food was quickly disposed of and the total receipts from same amounted to $22.56.The thanks of the Association is due to Mr.and Mrs.Braithwaite and all those who helped to make this sale a success.Mr.and Mrs.Ernest Mason and son Franklyn and Mrs.Mary Mason of the Gore, recently visited at the home of Mrs.James Lavery.Miss Angeline Cappiello returned Monday to school in Quebec City.She was accompanied by her mother, Mrs.Louis Cappiello and Miss Louise Laniel of Valleyfield who will spend a few days at Quebec and Ste.Anne de Beaupré.Sunday guests of Mrs.Chalmers and

Thurber, of Chateaugay.N.Y., Master James McOuat of Ormstown was also their week-end gueset.Has Scientists Puzzled So far as man's memory extends, Ireland has been without snakes.Whether or not St, Patrick is the reason for the Emerald isle\u2019s immunity, England, Scotland and Wales, but a few miles across the water.have always had at least a fair sized population of these reptiles.The nearest approach to a snake in Ireland is a legless lizard called the lag worm which isn't formidable even in appearance.During recent years there have been many attempts to introduce harmless snakes as an aid to farmers, but the introductions have not been successful.Zoologists are unable to account for the phenomenon.In Cold Blood He choked her\u2014 She was dead\u2014there could be no doubt about that.He had listened to her dying gasp.Now she was cold\u2014cold as the hand of death.Yet in his anger he was not convinced.Furiously he kicked her.To his amazement she gasped, sputtered and began to hum softly.\u201cJust a little patience is all it takes John,\u201d remarked his wife from the rear seat.69 OCEAN FLIGHTS When Amelia Earhart Putnam flew from Newfoundland to Ireland last month, it was the sixty-ninth successive crossing of the Atlantic by air.There will soon be too many to keep count and persons are living today who will see daily airship schedules maintained between America and Europe.Brooklet Mr.George Taylor left on Monday for Valleyfield where he intends spending this year at the Gault In-4 stitute.Mr.and Mrs.Walter Elliott and family spent Friday in Valleyfield and

the machine shop had been destroyed and remained in ruins, while the surrounding railway yards and plers were a mass of debris.The plant was taken over from the Halifax Graving Dock Company on June 24, 1918, by the Halifax Shipyards, Ltd.which firm undertook and carried out an elaborate program of improvements.The new company, as its name implies, planned to make the service of the plant more comprehensive.It acquired a considerable area of adjoining property with the object of constructing a large shipbuilding plant with facilities also for carrying out the most difficult and extensive marine repair work.As part of its initial work, the new company undertook not only to built what is virtually a completely new plant, but also to reconstruct and improve the Canadian National Railways\u2019 property in the district which had been ruined by the explo- Devil's Food Layer Cake 34 cup butter 34 teaspoon salt 134 cups sugar 3 teaspoons 3 egge Magic Baking 1 cup milk Powder 234 cups pastry 1 teaspoon va- flour (or 2 cups nilla extract and 3 table- 36q.unsweetened spoons of bread chocolate, flour) melted Cream butter thoroughly;

the building of a retaining wall 2,600 feet long and 25 feet high to hold back the city street; the building of an overhead steel bridge with a span of 50 feet in the clear; the relocation of two miles of Canadian National Railways tracks, and the removal of a two-way double track steel girder bridge 106 feet long.The company\u2019s property has a length along the harbor front of approximately 2,300 feet, containing 46 acres, five acres of which were reclaimed by {filling in with the material excavated for the improvement of the C.NR.Improvements on this property were on an extensive scale.Old Pier No.7, wrecked by the ex- rlosion, was rebuilt for use as a temporary fitting-out berth, and has a length of 650 feet.A new pile wharf, 350 feet long, was built east of the drydock, and the plant's old wharf was rebuilt and extended.New and permanent buildings were constructed as follows: Machine shop, plate shop with molding loft above, power house, pump house, office and stores building.The shipyards proper deserve a special paragraph.They consist of four building ways on pile foundation, 615 feet long by 60 feet wide, equipped with revolving derricks for placing plates in position on new ships.On these berths were built four splendid steamers, the Cana- dain Mariner and Canadian Explorer, each of 8100 tons dearweight, and the Canadian Cruiser and Canadian Constructor, each of 10,500 tons deadweight, the two latter craft being the largest ocean-going freighters built in Canada.In the year 1930 this yard constructed the icebreaker N.B.Mc- Lean to the order of the Department of Marine for service in Hudson Straits.The dimensions of this vessel are as follows: Length, over all 277 feet Breadth, molded, 60 feet Depth molded to upper deck 31 feet Displacements 5,034 tons IL.H.P.6,500 The propelling machinery consists of two sets of triple-expansion, sur- face-condensing engines.The Wall- send-Howden system of oil burning was installed and she had a fuel- oi! capacity of 1,300 tons, giving her a wide radius of action.Drydock To the layman visiting the company's plant the drydock itself is the most interesting feature of all the equipment.It was excavated out of the solid rock, and the sides have been rebuilt with Ashlar and concrete.Its extreme length is 567 feet, floor length 549 feet.An extra 22 feet can be added, if needed, by using caisson gate in outside position, the greatest width being 102 feet, with width at gate 89 feet, and depth 27 feet from keel blocks to high water.While there are now larger docks in this side of the Atlantic, it is a fact that this drydock has never yet been found too small to accommodate any ship requiring service at this port.It is well known that the largest British steamers, freight as well as passenger, arrange for drydocking, for overhaul and usual repair jobs at their home ports in the old country, where many drydock concerns are subsidiaries of the steamship lines.Conceivably, an emergency might arise when the drydock here would be too small, but there has been none such in 45 years.Dock Gate The drydock gate Is of the ship caisson type.It was built in 1888 by Dunlop ,of Glasgow, and is 100 feet long and 30 feet high.A \u201csister ship\u201d is still doing service at No.1 Dry- dock, Glasgow.The gate has give compartments for buoyancy operation, and, virtually every part having been renewed, it functions as well to-day as when it was first set up and floated out to open the dock for the first ship to enter.Pump House Next in point of interest is the pump house, which is a brick building 40 feet by 24 feet with the pumps situated on a level with the deck bottom.When the Halifax Shipyards, Ltd.took over the plant the pumps were steam-driven, but a very efficient electric power plant having been constructed the pumping plant was electrified.The equipment consists of two Canadian Westinghouse motors of 250 h.p.each, driving two 32-inch centrifugal pumps.supplied by Watt, an English concern.The discharge pipe is 6 feet by 4 feet and empties into the harbor.The dock holds 9.000,000 gallons of water, and the pumps discharge at the rate of 30,000 gallons a minute.On this basis it would take five hours to empty the dock, but with the displacement of the average ship it can be done in about three hours, as compared with 4': hours in the days when the pumps were steam-driven.The pump house is also equipped with-an auxiliary direct 12-inch sue- tion pump operated by a 40 hp.motor.This pump is used to keep the dock dry when a ship is there! Power House Probably the greatest investment in any individual part of the plant is represented in the power house.When the Shipyards first took over creases ters teers nna the plant, the Nova Scotia Tramways and Power Company was unable to apply its power needs, so the new firm proceeded to establish its own system.A fire-proof, steel and brick building, 140 feet long, 100 feet wide, two stories high, was constructed.Three 1,000-kw.Allis-Chalmers turbines were installed, connected with 962 amperes, 600-volt, three-phase generators.There are five B.& W.boilers, ranging in horse-power from

friendly basis or on a \u201chard as nails\" plan.There are two ways for a man to conduct a retail business\u2014either on a personal plan\u2014in close touch with his customers\u2014knowing them by name\u2014or on the impersonal plan\u2014sitting behind a desk\u2014Issulng or.ders\u2014knowing his customers only as names on the books, or cash in the till.Successful businesses have been built up on each plan.The same principles govern whether the business be large or small.There concerns with only the proprietor and a couple of assistants, where the atmosphere is just as impersonal as a big Railroad Corporation.There are also big departmental stores, with a hugh staff, that carry the personal touch from the president through to the cash girl.There should be no question in any one's mind, but that the personal friendly method, when tempered with a reasonable amount of judgment and caution, is the most profitable in the long run, and by far the most satisfactory in other ways.To some men it is not easy to cultivate a friendly atmosphere\u2014 yet the man who cannot put the cares of his business off his shoulders, and wipe the cloud from his face, when he goes to meet his customers, handicaps his business every working day.If the merchant had to go and ring door-bells, meeting his customers at their own door, he would very soon learn some of the methods of the successful out-door-salesmen in the way of approach and getting into the good graces of the prospect.Because the customer comes to him, he sometimes forgets that the first principle in selling\u2014is to place the customer in a friendly frame-of-mind.Many people have, as stated, made a success of an impersonal business, not, however, because of that impersonality but in spite of it.Going into business, a man should take stock of his own person- ality\u2014his strong points and his weak ones\u2014and decide what type of a store he is going to conduct\u2014whether it be a friendly store with warm heartedness and cordiality running through the whole organization\u2014or a cold blooded business proposition\u2014so much goods for 30 much money \u201436 inches to the yard\u2014I12 to the

store where if the total shows an odd cent, and the change in your hand does not show a copper\u2014the odd cent is knocked off.At another store they will send next door to get change for a $5.bill in order to secure the single cent on the total.One man builds up a credit of friendship, and people go out of their way to trade with him.The other gets only the trade that is forced his way.I do not know any better example of friendliness than the gasoline stations that dot the roads and the street corners.Most motorists have a preference first for a brand of gas because of its advertising message in the newspapers\u2014and have also favourite stations handling that gas\u2014and time their needs to stop at the station with the friendly smile.The friendly store must continue to be friendly, as you can bid goodbye to the customer who gets warm greeting.the icy mitt\u2014when he expects a Next Week\u2014THE HELP YOU GET FROM NATIONAL ADVERTISING.Mr.Edgar will be glad to answer

three years all the machinery of the Shipyards was operated by electricity furnished by the power house, Since the installation of hydro at Halifax, the company has been buying its power from the Nova Scotia Tramways, and now gets it direct from St.Margaret's Bay at a tension of 13,000 volts to 570 volts, using three 200 KVA Westinghouse transformers.Meanwhile, the power house is kept as a standby

compressor plant, the remainder of building is used for offices.Fire protection is supplied by an 8-inch sprinkler system installed throughout all the buildings with a sufficient nmber of hydrants and hose to protect outside work.A 1,000- gallon-a-minute fire underwriter's pump is installed in the power house with direct connections to the 8-inch sprinkler system and to a 40,000- gallon steel tank, which is surmounted on the 75-foot steel tower.Two direct 6-inch water mains connected with the Halifax Municipal Water system supply the plant and sprinkler systems, The main freight line of railway runs alongside the premises of Halifax Shipyards, and the company has its own locomotives which can haul cars with materials directly from these main lines at the freight yard Richmond, and distribute them at various convenient points on the branch lines which run through the Shipyards and on both sides of the drydock.In addition, there are four locomotive cranes (one of 30-tons capacity), two of which are used in the yard and two at the drydock.The Halifax Shipyards, Ltd.has increased its facilities and service ftom year to year in order to meet the demand of shipowners.It has recently added to its shop equipment a nationally known balancing machine, which balances turbine rotors, both statically and dynamically.Its shop is now equipped to perform any turbine work, and has completed

happiness is upon health, it would seem reasonable to expect an intelligent answer to this or other similar questions, Those who answer, with few exceptions, will have to admit that, while they hope to enjoy many healthy years, this hope is not based upon any knowledge which they have of the condition of their bodies.Most people presume that their body does not require any attention as long as they do not suffer any pain and are able to go about and do their work.Freedom from physical discomfort, together with & capacity for work and play is good practical evidence of à healthy

disturbance of the body functions, and s0 there are no definite symptoms.I! these early changes are detected, tl:y may be corrected by proper trect- ment, and so the more serious con- aitions, which might grow out of them, would be prevented.In order to keep the body healthy, iL.as otherwise changes may go on which may not be felt until the condition becomes more or less serious.Tuberculosis does

Forth\u201d Boating Club News: The annual marathon paddle, held each year on Labor Day, definitely brought the padling season to a close on Monday afternoon, when 9 tandem canoes left the Chateauuay Boating club at three o'clock to start on the seven mile pull around the Nun's Island.Fortunately the weather was perfect, a bright, sunny day with a very slight breeze blowing and the river and Lake St.Louis as calm as a mill pool, thus making the long paddle much safer and more enjoyable to the spectators.At the very beginning L.Frickie and L.Green- ough took the lead, using a long steady stroke which they kept up throughout the race.After 45 minutes had elapsed the first canoe was sighted from the club house, as it rounded the last bend of the island.The same tandem were in the lead.Then started a preat deal of honking end cheering as the victors gradually neared the finishing point.Up the river past the bridge they paddled, at last sweeping across the line in 51 minutes\u2014four or five boat lengths ahead of the second tandem.The fil- lowing are the results: 1, L, Frickie and L.Greenough; 2, M.Reany and C.McGlahhan.The staff of the LaSalle Coke Co., of Montreal, about 35 in number, spent a most enjoyable evening on the Heights on Wednesday as guests of Miss Winnifred Maxwll at a corn boil and dance.Wednesday also was the celebration of Mr.Wm.Maxwell's 60th birthday.After the evening bowling games, Mrs.Maxwell served refreshments on the greens to all the bowlers in honour of her husband.The Heights Tennis and Bowling Club held a card party and dance in the Boating Club hall on Friday ev- cning when the trophies and prizes were presented to the fortunate winners for the year's play.An excellent crowd attended.Mr.and Mrs.H.Cobb expect to be able to move into their new home on the corner of Mountain and Carlyle ave, sometime very soon before returning to their winter home in Mon- freal.Tribal Expressions Not Alike for Both Sexes The difference in the language used by men and women of the same tribe, discussed by Sir James George Frazer, English anthropologist, in his.book, \u201cGarnered Sheaves,\u201d calls to mind the varied words employed by the Incas of Peru to describe the same object or operation, says the New York Herald Tribune.Spinning, for instance, by a woman was called \u201cbuhca,\u201d but when a man engaged in this task it was called \u201cbuhco.\u201d Before the Inca youths of royal blood were invested with arms.they were tested as to their ability to meet the exigencies of warfare.such as the making of shields, weapons or even sandals, of any material available.Thus they practiced the manufacture of woollen sandal cords by twisting wool with a small stick.This method of twisting was called \u201cmil- luy,\u201d and as the work was for men, women did not use the word.The minister was shaking hands with a new member of his congregation, a girl fresh from Sweden, and said, cordially: \u201cI would like to know your

Minister's latest pronouncement appeared in the form of an interview published in the Italian newspaper, Resto Del Carlino, at Bologna.Asked what Germany would do if her claim to equality were rejected, the General told the newspaper: \u201cThe German Government will no longer participate in the world disarmament conference.It is evident what non-participation means to the existence of the League of Nations.The German Government will then be forced by breaches of promise on the part of the signers of the Versailles Treaty to take her national security problem in her own hands, should international solution prove impossible.\u201d » * * * * Young Student Wins Marathon Torontd, Sept.1.\u2014Fully rested and glad \u201cit\u2019s all over,\u201d George Blagden, the new king of swimdom, today rested on his laurels.In a gruelling fifteen-mile grind, Blagden yesterday defeated a field of 189 of the world's best natators to win the Canadian National Exhibition's open marathon.And the Memphis, Tenn.law student, who proved somewhat of a surprise, beat the greatest opponent of all, old Lake Ontario.In second place was Gianni Gambi, the \u201cItalian windmill,\u201d who threshed his way into that position in a rousing finish.Blagden, Gambi and Isador Spondor.Port Colborne, Ont.,, who was third.broke the world\u2019s record for the time, with Blagden finishing in seven hours, 19 minutes, 52 3-5 seconds.The best previous time for the distance was established by Marvin Nelson, Fort Dodge, Ia, in 1930.On that occasion, Nelson won in seven hours, 43 minutes 36 2-5 seconds.Yesterday, he beat that time himself, but could not dobetter than finish fourth.George Young, of Toronto, favorite for the race, was nearly drowned when he crashed into a float shortly after the halfway mark had been reached.Young, a favorite to win the event, was in fifth position at the time.Only prompt aid irom other swimmers and from nearby boats prevented a tragedy, for Young sank immediately after striking the float and was unconscious when taken from the water.* * * * * Beauharnois Power Transfer Ottawa, September 2.\u2014Another step in the St.Lawrence seaway project will be consummated shortly.Within the next few weeks, ownership of the 14-mile Beauharnois canal between Lake St.Francis and Lake St.Louis, close to Montreal, will be vested in the Dominion of Canada.The subject of discussion at several meetings of cabinet council for some time, the agreement is in final drafting stages, it is learned.Signing of the document on behalf of the Dominion of Canada and the Beauhar- nois Light, Heat and Power Company will take place at an early date, Well advanced in the process of construction, the canal will have a depth of 27 feet.Throughout, this work and all its appurtenances will ineet navigational requirements for the greater St.Lawrence scheme agreed upon in the recent Canada-United States waterways treaty which will be put before Congress and the Canadian Parliament for ratification this fall or early in January.Transfer of the canal to the Dominion will carry into effect part of the terms, conditions and reservations under which the Government has agreed to permit diversion of 53,072 cubic feet per second of water by the Beauharnois concern 20 miles from Montreal.The scheme of the company involves a 500,000 horsepower development.When a man is sure that his friends never say unkind things about him he can be sure that all his friends are dead.New World Mark Set Cleveland Airport, September 3.\u2014 Major James H.Doolittle set a new world speed mark of 296.287 miles an hour over the three-kilometre course here today at the national air races.Doolittle\u2019s speed was more than 18 miles an hour faster than the previous world mark of 278.481, set in 1924 by Warrant Officer Donnet in France.The former army flier carried a barograph to make his record official.After breaking the record he continued flying the course and flashed past the pylons on the fifth lap at 306 miles an hour.The baro- graph and timers\u2019 official records must be calibrated by the Government Bureau of Standards at Washington, D.C, and then approved by the Federation Aeronautique Internationale, world governing body of competitive aviation events, before the record is made official.While the flier's feat shaded the existing record, he was still far short of the maximum air speed record the British ace, Lieut.G.H.Staniforth, having set a mark of 406.997 miles an hour in a speed plane in 1931 at Lee on Solent, England.New President of Mexico Mexico City, September 4\u2014Gener- al Abelardo L.Rodriguez, a powerful military figure for many years, was elected and inaugurated President of Mexico today shortly after Congress had accepted the

Rubio left for the United States on a special train to spend several months at Hot Springs.A joint session of Congress elected General Rodriguez to fill out the unexpired term of his predecessor and a

to be considered.The Gleaner and the weekly newspapers of the Ontario-Quebec Division of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers\u2019 Association have advised all their correspondents not to report, when one neighbour calls upon another; for that is not news, but is pure gossip.have also asked that they make no mention of visits of persons who live within a few miles of the place where they are visiting, unless the person be very aged and the occasion rare.Gleaner is noted for its volume of news and its freeness of gossip.Will you assist your district correspondent by supplying them with real We The

he will be unprepared for any sort of hard work and discouraging situations is a poor policy.You are directing his course in a way that totally unfits him for the sort of effort he must make to win success ir any line.Not having serious problems to meet as a young man, not having to apply himself closely to any task, he will be averse to doing so in after life.He is going to seek the soft places.Going the easiest way may eventually lead to dishonest methods when he comes to crisis, and then comes disgrace.Your son has a good education, and you are willing to assist him in procuring a position, but that should be all that he can expect from you.Endowed with good home training.he should be prepared to assume whatever burdens may come and make his own way.Encouraging him to take easy jobs softens him mentally and physically.Every boy needs some hardships to develop him.If you had not had them would you have reached your present position?Magic and Superstition Even in this enlightened age there is hardly a corner of the earth where there is not lurking some evidences of the belief of the efficacy of certain charms to accomplish certain purposes.There is to be found the vestiges of magical practices persisting even in the commercial centers of our big cities.When hard-headed business men in the silk industry feel that they must discard a textile design based on peacock feathers because of the superstitions associated with this bird and when skyscrapers, the symbol par excellence of the Twentieth century.commonly omit the number 13 from their floors and room, it seems evident that even in this rational and materialistic day and age the deep-rooted belief in the potency of certain talismen to divert the forces of destiny still has a foothold.Judge:

1932 The Man Hunters by Mabel McElliott CHAPTER XII Every time the telephone rang during the next few days Susan's heart raced like a wild thing.But as the days passed hope died.\u201cSurely he'll call me just once again to say goodby,\u201d she thought.Her moods veered from wild exhilira- tion to deepest gloom.At one moment she would be certain that she had been right about the kinship of feeling existing between herself and Bob Dunbar that day at the Blackstone.Again she would be as certain she had been completely wrong.The flushes and fevers and chills of first Jove possessed her.She moved llke a person in a dream.Aunt Jessie's charpest speeches fell on deaf ears these days.\u201cI declare I don't know what's got into you,\u201d her aunt would say, baffled.Susan scarcely heard her.She never went out on the street at lunch hour, never joined the home- going throngs without experiencing a sudden wild hope that she would see the face she sought or hear that deep, remembered voice.This was the thought that colored all her days.It made even the hot tiresome journey back and forth on stifling street cars endurable.Today\u2014it might be today, she would think! He would telephone and finish what he had started to tell her a week ago.But at last her dream died.That was the morning Susan read in a newspaper gossip column, the name fairly leaping at her from the printed page, that Bob Dunbar had sailed for Europe.She was so white and still that morning that even Pierson, the stolid bookkeeper.glanced at her with something like alarm.\u201cGuess you ate something that disagreed with you.\u201d he remarked.Susan gave him a look in which envy and contempt were mingled.Fancy being so dull and so fortunate.she thought, as to believe life could be that simple.But the tiresome little man felt an honest sympathy for her.if she had only known it.He was shrewder than she thought and had more delicacy than she gave him credit for.The long day wore on.\u201cHe's gone.he's gone.\u201d ticked the clock.\u201cHe did rot even say goodby to vou.\u201d Her Leart was a lump of solid ice, She went to lunch in a still daze.The men and women in the sandwich shop were shapes in a dream and everywhere, everywhere.boys and girls seemed to walk in pairs.In all that busy mid-summer noonday only Susan Carey was alone.It was two o'clock.After countless ages it was three.She typed steadily.thinking to dull by unceasing effort the pain that racked her head.\u201cOh.I beg your pardon.Did you\u2014 did you speak to me before?\u201d The woman standing outside the office gate was cool, poised.elegant.Her ash blond hair was folded back in wings under her smart black hat.Her expression was one of amused disdain.\u201cOnly three or four times.\u201d the woman said, her tone suggesting that Susan was not only dull but inattentive.\u201cThis typewriter is so noisy.\u201d the girl began to explain in confusion.Instantly she felt she had said the wrong thing.Her caller's expression of remote amusement deepened.\u201cIt's of no consequence,\u201d she said crisply.\u201cMr.Heath's not in.then?\u201d Susan had risen.In her embarrassment she stammered as a child might.\u201cN-no.he's not.Is there any message I can take?\u201d For answer the woman in black clicked open the gate with accustomed fingers and said fretfully, \u201cI'll wait.He's expecting me.\u201d Then.since the girl continued to look surprised.she exclaimed impatiently, \u201cMrs.Heath.\u201d That was all but she had reduced Susan to the merest pulp.Her manner had been that of the princess who rebukes the loutish servant.\u201cI'm sorry, I didn't know,\u201d the girl said in a low voice.But Mrs.Heath had already ensconced herself in the most comfortable chair in her husband\u2019s office and did not trouble to reply.Pierson came in, ducked his head in the direction of the private room in an obscure gesture of recognition, and disappeared into his favorite haven, the vault.Susan could hope for no assistance from that quarter.She worked on.Jack Waring slammed open the other door and bustled in, whistling a dance tune.\u201cHow's every little\u2014\" he began with customary exuberance.The words died on his lips as he caught sight of the still, aristocratic figure in black.\u201cAh, Mrs.Heath!\u201d His manner underwent a subtle change.The lady gave him a slow smile but her accents were sweet.\u201cNice to see you.It's been ages.\u201d Waring bowed over her hand.Susan could hear the ripple of light laughter.In the tail of her eye she could see the man light a cigaret Leld in the woman's long white fingers.An emerald, big as & roc\u2019s egg, gleamed on one of them.\u201cCannes\u2014just like every other place\u2014St.Jean de Luz\u2014home on the Berengaria\u2014\" She could hear the cool, disdainful voice trajling on.She wondered what manner of woman this was.Waring's usual gay insouciance was dimmed.He was respectful rather than gay.Susan was ever 80 slightly amused at this.\u201cShe must be what Aunt Jessie calls \u2018a regular \u201cTartar, to affect him in that way,\u201d observed the young girl to herself.Presently Ernest Heath entered.Susan had a distinct sense of relief.Now her responsibility ended.\u201cMy dear, I didn\u2019t expect you until tomorrow!\u201d The lady laughed again, not alto- \u2018gether agreeably.She gave the tips of her fingers to her husband and an oblique glance to the younger man.\u201cErnest is so amusing.He always wants things to happen according to schedule.\u201d And, indeed, Heath seemed annoyed.\u201cI think you might have wired.I ghould certainly have met you.\u201d He seemed aggrieved, There was an undertone of real contention in their light talk.Busan tried not to listen.\u201cI always like to give you surprises!\u201d There was an edge to Mrs.Heath's tone.\u201cOne never knows\u2014\" Her voice trailed off and whether unwittingly or not her gaze sirayed to her desk.Susan heard Heath say with some heat that he disliked surprises intensely.She thought that altogether the meeting was rather odd for a husband and wife who had been separated for months.After a tactful moment Waring slipped away and Susan was summoned to Piersc}.\u2019s cubbyhole to help him check some figures.She grew absorbed in the task and forgot to notice the hum of voices, now low and rather monotonous, in the private office.In an interlude Pierson inquired with a jerk of his head, \u201cHow d'ye like her ladyship?\u201d Susan flushed.\u201cShe's very attractive.\u201d Pierson drew down his left eyelid in a grotesque wink.\u201cSome boss.she is! I feel sorry for the old man.\u201d Abruptly he adjusted his expression and began monotonously to read figures aloud.Mrs, Heath was leaving.Susan heard her name called.Her employer, looking mildly flustered, said, \u201cYou've not met Mrs.Heath, I believe, Miss Carey.\u201d Mrs.Heath looked into space a fraction of an inch over Susan's head and the travesty of a smile visited her thin, beautifully: molded lips.Then she was gone, leaving a drift of expensive, subtle scent behind her.\u201cWhew! Thank God that's over.\u201d muttered the bookkeeper as the hall door slammed.\u201cWe won't have another visitation for another six months.\u201d Susan smiled.feeling a sense of kinship with the little man.\u201cO'Con~ nell knew how to handle her.\u201d Pier- son rambled on.amiably inclined to gossip.\u201cO'Connell had her number.Don't.\u201d he warned benevolentiy.\u201cdon't let her get your goat, Miss Carey.Yotre not married to her like friend described with embellishments the peculiarities of the head of her department.\u201cStop! Please don't tell me any more!\u201d Susan begged.wiping her ey2s.Naturallly Rose, delighted at this tribute to her powers as a mimic, continued the performance.As Susan rinsed out the last clean dish towel she glanced with astonishment at the clock.\u201cIt can't be half past three!\u201d she said, appalled.They discussed the relative merits of a walk to the park or a trolley ride to one of the beaches, but somehow reached no decision.They dawdiled out to the back porch, where.in a delicious confusion of Sunday newspapers, cracking taffy wrappers, and the shouts of the chi!- dren next door, they idled away the afternoon.That was the beginning of Susan's real holiday.Of course she would have no actual vacation this year since she had only started to work, but it was enough for her at the moment to feel the exquisite importance of being mistress of her own domain.There came, however, the inevis- able day when Rose, always popular and in demand, telephoned that she could not get home for dinner.\u201cI see.Of course you must go.Have a good time and don't be too late.No, I won't leave the door open.You ring twice and I'll hear you.\u2019 Susan's tone sounded cheerful but she hung up the recelver with a sense of dismay.The long summer evening stretched out emptily before her.She stood up to find Jack Waring twinkling at her.\u201cWhat's the matter?Somebody stand you up?\u201d he bantered.Susan shook her head.\u201cThe girl who's staying with me while my aunt is away has a date,\u201d she explained.hoping her voice did- n't sound as forlorn as she felt.The man smiled.\u201cCome along with me,\u201d he said casually.\u2018Some friends of mine are driving out to a place on the Milwaukee Road where they have grand music.I'll take good care of you and \u2018get you home early.\u201d Susan hesitated.There was no denying it, the prospect was alluring.In addition, the man's tone and man- the boss is.Honestly.the poor guy.has my sympathy.\u201d | Susan told herself that of course she didn't mind if Mrs.Heath treat- | ed her like the paper of the wall Why should she?She didn't know what the rules of etiquette for employers\u2019 wives were.but she rather thought a more gracious mood was indicated.Oh.well.what did it matter?One snub more or less in a cold and unfeeling world!, \u201cI'm leaving for the day\u201d Heath said over her shoulder.His pale, ascetic face seemed flushed and annoyed.\u201cIf MacWhig calls from New York tell the operator to get my house after four o'clock.\u201d Jack Waring sauntered over Susan's desk later.\u201cRitzed you.eh?\u201d His keen eyes under his sandy thatch were smiling but sympathetic.Susan shrugged.\u201cI guess so.What does it matter?\u201d But there was a line of bitterness about her young mouth.\u201cChild.don't you care!\u201d She looked up.surprised.at the earnestness of Waring's usually bantering voice.She avoided him these days, fearing a recurrence of his flirtatious man- Ler.But Waring seemed wholly in earnest.Almost fatherly.\u201cThanks,\u201d Susan said soberly.She was struck by a new, not altogether unwelcome thought.What if she should find a friend in this man?to CHAPTER XIII Aunt Jessie was going away.It was astonishing but true.Her sister who lived in a little town in southern Il- inois had undergone a rather serious cperation and was convalescing.She wanted Aunt Jessie to come.\u201cI declare.it doesn't seem right!\u201d Aunt Jessie kept saying over and cver.\u201cIt seems a pity you couldn't go and stay with the Miltons instead of having Rose come over here.But what with those cousins of theirs visiting from Des Moines I suppose we can't help it.\u201d She sighed again.growning, folded her best Philippine nightgown and wrapped her bedroom slippers in tissue paper.\u201cI don't see why you make such a fuss,\u201d Susan said capably, trying to help and not succeeding very well.\u201cYou always say yourself that Rose is so sensible, and after all you won't be gone more than two weeks.\u201d Aunt Jessie kept grumbling that it didn't seem right and she declared she was at her wit's end.But she went nevertheless.This was on a Sunday morning.After Susan had seen her aunt off at the dismal old station she came back to a house strangely empty and quiet.She walked through the prim.familiar rooms with the sensation of seeing them for the first time and when Rose came over to join her at a lazy, two o'clock dinner the kitchen rang with the sudden.foolish, irresistible laughter of two young things set free.They used the best embroidered tablecloth and the thin cups which Susan's great-grandmother brought «ut with her from \u201cYork State.\u201d Aunt Jessie would have been scandalized at the idea of this casual ernploy- ment of her dearest treasures.The tablecloth and china were generally reserved for weddings and funerals hut since Susan saw no chance of the one and hoped there might be none for the other she made the riost of this golden moment.It was fun even to wash dishes with Rose.Susan hung, weak with laughter, over a kitchen chair as her \u2019 BARGAIN and a great chance to HELP CANADA the young girl typing furiously at # ner were so quietly reassuring, so nearly paternal that she felt rather silly as she demurred.\u201cNonsense,\u201d Waring said briskly.\u201cYou just say \u2018no\u2019 as a matter of form without thinking.I can see that.\u201d His conjecture was so close to the truth that Susan flushed.After all, wasn't it foolish of her to go home alone, eat an uninteresting and solitary supper and moon about waiting for Rose to return, when friendship, gaiety, music and laughter were hers for the stretching out of her hand?Irrationally she wondered if this had been the way Eve felt about the serpent.Then she smiled and shrugged because the metaphor was so farfetched.Jack Waring in his conservative dark suit, perfectly groomed and agreeably friendly, was as little like a serpent as anyone could possibly imagine.She was seized with an uncontrollable impulse.\u201cI'll go,\u201d she said.\u201cI'd love to.\u201d He was so businesslike about it all, putting her address down in his small notebook, that Susan banished as idiotic the suspicion that for an instant there had been a flash of triumph in his eyes.He was to call for her at seven.Much as she disliked the idea of the neighbors peering at his long, blue roadster with its shattering horn she insisted on this.For one thing she remembered Aunt Jessie\u2019s dictum, \u201cIf a man can't call for a girl at her own home then I say there's something wrong.These fly- by-nights who meet boys on street corners will come to no good.\u201d It was curious that Susan should think of this and be so insistent about it, because she had heard Aunt Jessie say it so many times and it had always irritated her.* * * She rushed homeward.impatient of the many delays.The westbound trolley seemed unusually slow and jerky.The conductor dropped the token she handed him, passengers fumbled their transfers, and at every cross town line there were maddening waits.Why she was so excited at the prospect of an evening with Waring Susan could not have exactly sald.Perhaps it was his reputation as a lady's man, gleaned from hints dropped by Pierson.Perhaps it was the memory of the dozen and one daily telephone calls which he received.Most of the voices were provocatively feminine.Susan could not help hearing Waring\u2019s part in some of these conversations.He called all of them \u201cdarling.\u201d She knew that and was a little contemptuous of it, believing in her young arrogance (and who shall say Best of all fly killers.Clean, quick, sare, 10c yourself to this great food bargain fe once a day 2 You'll profit: so

reserved for the chosen one instead of scattered to the crowd.But ever since the day when the man had shown such sympathetic understanding of her position\u2014the day Mrs.Heath had so unmercifully snubbed her\u2014Susan had come to take a more charitable view of him.After all, she argued, men couldn't all be alike.She began to fee x wat she had misunderstood Waring Pierson sald his wife had given him \u201ca dirty deal.\u201d Maybe that was true.It was at this stage in her reflections that the car, jerking wheezing, and groaning, reached her corner and she was glad to alight, finding the air under the locust trees of her own block much more agreeable than that of the trolley.In her own room, she wriggled out of her clothes and ran the tub almost to the brim.She was glad Rose had given her those geranium scented bath crystals for her birthday.It was her favorite scent.If everything had irked her on the homeward ride now everything seemed suddenly right.How lucky it was that her flowered chiffon, her only \u201cparty\u201d dress worthy of the name, had been returned from the cleaners the day before! How lucky it was she had washed her hair Monday night.How lucky she was to have a natural wave, intensified by the summer heat so that all she had to do was press her fingers into the little ridges to make her head a dark, shining, cap of undulation! She was ready long before seven o'clock.While she waited she began to feel the agitation of a diver about to take the great plunge.Her mind revolved in busy whirligigs.What if Aunt Jessie should happen in without warning?What if Mrs.McLeod who always watched the goings and comings of the neighborhood from behind her starched curtains should spread the rumor that Susan Carey was becoming \u201cfast?\u201d Susan shuddered.To be \u201cfast\u201d in the little community where she lived was to be quite beyond the pale.Although Chicago is a metropolis, in its neighborhood groups there exists much of the spirit of the average small town.Susan's reverie was interrupted by the sharp peal of the door bell.She caught up her gloves in a flurry and for the hundredth time wished she had a proper summer evening wrap instead of the wretched old black coat from last season.She opened the door with fingers that shook a little.There he stood, seeming taller than usual, and, as always, perfectly turned out.Susan closed the door of the cottage primly behind her.Aunt Jessie had always told her that a lady never receives a gentleman at home alone.Waring smiled suddenly as if he caught the reason for her abrupt gesture.\u201cI won't bite, you know,\u201d he said with mild raillery and Susan went scarlet.It was annoying to be so transparent.As she ran down the steps with her escort she forget everything in her sudden surprise.There, jauntily perched in the rumble seat, a jaded looking young man at her side, sat Ray Flannery.\u201cHello.\u201d chirped Ray.ing.Let's step on it!\u201d CHAPTER XIV The \u201cplace out on the Wilwaukee Road\u201d proved to be a big old house, set back from the highway and flanked by rows of ancient maples.\u201cI'm starv- \u201cEvery Friday It was such a house as one of Chicago\u2019s meat-barons might have built in the nineties\u2014all curlicues and hybrid ornamentation.Outside it had a sort of remote, Victoria dignity, but inside it was hung with the cheap colors of a temple of jazz.The colored girl in the coat room accepted Susan's wrap with superb disdain.Susan was terribly nervous.There was something about the atmosphere of the place that disturbed her.Ray, however, seemed perfectly at ease.She demanded hairpins, spilled powder about, and bullied the check girl unmercifully.Delighted with the effect she had produced, Ray ordered Susan to follow her and the two\u2014tall brunet and petite blond\u2014joined their escorts.At the end of the long room an orchestra thumped out a monotonous jungle dirge.It was strange, sullen music.After a brief consultation of menus Waring asked Susan to dance.The tempo of the music had quickened.There was more life in it now.The saxophone had ceased complaining and seemed to be bleating as merrily as a saxophone can.Susan gave herself up to the moment.It was months since she had danced and then with some awkward boy.Waring's performance had an ease and smoothness of which she had never dreamed.It was like poetry.It was like flying.His arm tightened around her, imperceptibly.\u201cGood girl,\u201d he said in her ear.\u201cI knew you'd dance like this.\u201d Susan leaned back a little to read the expression in his eyes.\u201cYou knew?\" \u201cHow?\u201d \u201cSomething about \u2018the way you walk\u2014\" _ She was pleased, though she could not have said why.When the music ended Susan was sorry to return to the table.It was rather like coming back to earth after a trip to Mars.For the first time she had a really good look at Ray's escort.He had been introduced as Mr.Webb.After a moment or two Susan realized who he was, the junior member of the real estate firm in whose office Ray worked.He seemed a vapid, amiable voung man.He had red hair and.she discovered, had been recently graduated from Harvard.Susan was not very favorably impressed.Indeed, Mr.Webb (known to his intimates as \u201cSky\") did not seem to have much to offer beyond a ready laugh and a trick of twirling his mustache.\u2018The mustache, small as it was, revolted Susan.She found Jack Waring's clean shaven face a likeable contrast.- - » she questioned.Waring was at his best in the role of host.Considerate, agreeable and amusing.If the flask he carried in his pocket was emptied with alarming alacrity as the evening wore on Susan was too inexperienced to notice it.As a matter of course she refused to have her ginger ale \u201cspiked.\u201d Waring's urbanity seemed to increase and if Schuyler Webb laughed noisily now and then she put it down to collegiate high spirits and gave it no further thought.They ate and danced and danced again.Susan had no idea of the time.But as group after group drifted in and the smoke began to hang in clouds over the big room she was conscious of a sense of uneasiness.\u201cIsn't it terribly late?\" she murmured to Waring.They were dancing a waltz and the sensuous strains of the music had made Susan's pulses throb.\u201cNonsense!\u201d he laughed at her.\u201cThe Peggy had such a sinking feeling when the time came to pack her trunk for boarding school again.Then Mother gave her a happy surprise: \u201cDad and I are going to telephone and have a litde visit with you.night's young.We've only started to \u201cYou Won't .Be Homesick This Term\u201d night at 8.30,\u201d she said, play.I knew you'd be a wonderful playmate,\u201d he whispered.\u201cOnly you were so stand-offish I never had a chance to find out.\u201d He was holding her closely, too closely, Susan thought, her instinct sharpened and revolted for an instant by the scent of liquor on his breath.A moment ago he had been a quiet friend\u2014flushed and volublee it is true, but still a friend.Now Waring was becoming a menace, a strange man with a reddened face, a man who had been drinking.Susan could see the little lines around his eyes.All of a sudden she thought of Ab Dunbar, his firm, clean-youthfuiness.It was as if a clean, sweet breeze had blown across a stagnant waste.She knew with aching certainty why she had been trapped into this indiscretion.If she could not have the real thing she had been willing to take creamed of\u2014flamourou, places with music and galety that aren't cheap.This isn't it!\u201d .* shoulder.romantic, At half past two they departed.In \u201cDon't like me, eh?\" sounded foolish.the car Waring tried to put his arm around her but Susan shrank away.His laugh She forced a smile to her stiff lips.She must not offend this man.\u201cOf course, I do.But I'm nervous ing, aren't you?\u201d \u201cAtta girl.Atta baby!\u201d about your driving.And it's so dark out here.\u201d Ray called, \u201cDon't worry about that.Jack's used to one-arm driv- That was Sky.Sky was almost asleep on Ray's Waring's arm remained where it was though.Susan shrank from it.They were on the outskirts of the city now.The little, mush- second best.\u201cReally, I must go,\u201d me.She hasn't a key.\u201d Waring smiled at her a little fool- \u201cBe nice!\u201d he muttered in an \u201cDon't spoil everything on the ishly.unsure voice.while the evening's still make.\u201d .Uncomfortable but determined, Susan persisted.At last Waring, annoyed, stopped at their table and consulted his watch.The girl gasped at what she saw.\u201cIt's 11.30,\u201d she exclaimed.Whatever shall I do?\u201d Ray reddened her lips unconcernedly.\u201cDon't crab the party,\u201d she said calmly.\u201cIts going good.\u201d Miserable, Susan stared at her.\u201cSky\u201d Webb laughed \u201cLot o\u2019 riff-raff here.We can go Tony's.next table.wound scene.she pleaded.\u201cRose\u2014my friend\u2014will be waiting for \u201cAnd it will take a good hour to get home! foolishly.\u201cLet's move along, anyhow,\u201d he said.Like Tony's better, anyhow.\u201d What followed was to be a nightmare in Susan\u2019s memory forever.The rocketing ride in the car to another noisy scene of hilarity, the band whose unrelenting music seemed never to come to an end, the wild bursts of laughter from the crowd at the White-faced, her eyes ringed in shadows as the night un- itself, Susan surveyed the If this were pleasure, she'd room houses of the truck gardeners huddled together.They passed a cemetery, the white stones arising up eerily in the gloom.\u201cTired, sweets?\u201d Susan shook her head.The man\u2019s fingers gripped her slender arm.\u201cYou're a nice kid and I like you but you're only half alive.Come to and enjoy yourself.Don't be a crepe hanger!\u201d She said, \u201cI'm sorry you think I spoiled everything.\u201d \u201cThat's all right.\u201d His voice thickened, blurred again.\u201cWe'll paint the town some time.You'd be grand if you'd just let yourself go.\u201d - Susan scarcely heard him.She was counting the blocks now.Eight\u2014six \u2014four\u2014they were almost home.\u201cThe next corner,\u201d she murmured, turning to Waring.Now that the dreadful evening was ended she was almost effusive.To be home, safe and sound, seemed too good to be true! \u201cDon\u2019t bother to get out with me,\u201d she said hurriedly.She could see Rose's figure, a mere blur, on the porch.Poor Rose!

Enough!\u201d President F.F.Fisk called the meeting to order.He expressed the appreciation and thanks of the club to Mr.and Mrs.Burchell for their generous hospitality.He called upon George J.Moore to introduce the first speaker, Armitage Ewing, K.C,, Montreal.Mr.Moore, who was born in St.Anicet, mentioned some early recollections, praised the scenic beauty of King George's Island, spoke of the cordial relations existing between the peoples on both sides of the border.and touched upon the high standing of Mr.Ewing as an attorney, as a Rotarian and as counsel to the Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada.Mr.Ewing's Address.Mr.Ewing brought the greetings and best wishes of the Montreal Rot- \"ary Club, mother club of the Malone organization.He spoke of the fine feeling of good will and friendship between the two clubs and of their promotion of better understanding between the people of Canada and United States.Assigned the subject, \u201cInternation- a! Relations,\u201d Mr.Ewing said he had no choice in the matter but that he was pleased with the subject as he had made a special study of certain matters of international concern particularly in connection with squabbles between Great Britain and United States.He said one of the most fertile fields for work in promotion of international amity is in the revision of text books.The youth of all countries are given a biased description of past differences.The school histories in each country put the home country always in the right and the other country always in the wrong.War is glorified and made popular.It is commercialized.The children are brought up not to know the right or wrong of it.Mr.Ewing said he had talked with some men who couldn't get over their prejudices against other countries One American he spoke of could not forget that England had done his country \u201ca great wrong.\u201d The speaker said he told him it was time to forget the war of 1776, that there were many people in England at that time who were sympathetic with the cause of the Colonies, that the people as a whole should not be blamed for the mistakes of a few leaders, arf that if our great-grandfathers had made fools of themselves it was no reason for their descendants at this late date to continue the quarrel.He said he talked with another man about the Civil War and found him very critical of England's attitude toward the United States during that war.Upon further questioning he found that the stickler in the American's mind was the Alabama case, When asked if he knew that the right or wrong of that matter had never been arbitrated the man said he did not know that.When asked if he knew that the Alabama had heen built not by England but by private interests, the man was still further surprised.Mr.Ewing explained in some detail the developments of the Alabama case to show how a mistaken opinion detrimental to one country can be formed in another country because of lack of impartial information.The Alabama, he said.was built by Lairds for private interests whose identity was never revealed.but who were generally supposed to be connected with the confederacy.Under pretense of a trial ship it slipped out and eventually did serious damage to American shipping.A movement was started to submit the matter to arb- jtration but this was killed in the U.8.Senate.In this connection Mr.Ewing read from a statement he had prepared on the subject, as follows: \u201cIn abandoning its contention that as a condition precedent to arbitra- n.Great Britain must admit lia- ity for the acts of the Alabama.the United States minister had said that England must make important concessions on the question of the submission of the \u2018Alabama Claims; Bhese concessions were made and consisted in the fact that not the whole question of Great Britain's liability in law and in fact was to be referred to the tribunal, but it was agreed by Article VI of the treaty that in deciding the matters submitted to the arbitrators, they should be governed by three rules which were agreed upon as rules to be taken as applicable to the case, and by such consistent therewith as the arbitrators should determine to have been applicable.The three rules read as follows: \u201c\u2018A neutral government is bound: \u201c\u201cIst.To use due diligence to prevent the fitting out, or equipping within its jurisdiction of any vessel which it has reasonable ground to believe is intended to cruise or to carry on war against a power with which is at peace; and also to use like diligence to prevent the departure from its jurisdiction of any vessel intended to cruise or carry on war as above, such vessel having been specially adapted in whole or in part within such jurisdiction, to warlike use.\u201c\u20182nd.Not to permit or suffer either belligerent to make use of its ports or waters as the base of naval operations against the other, or for the purpose of the renewal or argumentation or military supplies or arms, or the recruitment of men.\u201c3rd.To exercise due diligence in its own ports and waters, and, as to all persons within its jurisdiction, to prevent any violation of the foregoing obligations and duties.\u2019 \u201cThe article of the treaty then went on to say that the British government could not assent to these rules as a statement of the principles of international law which were in force at the time the \u2018Alabams Claims\u2019 arose.but that in order to evince its desire of strengthening the | friendly relations between the two countries and of making satisfactory provisions for the future, it, (the British Government) agreed that the arbitrators should assume, in deciding upon the claims.that Her Majesty\u2019s Government had undertaken tc act upon the principles set forth in these rules, and that both countries should agree to observe them as between themselves in future and bring them to the knowledge of other maritime powers, and invite them io accede to them.\u201d - Under the rules Britain was Judged liable and was ordered to pay a certain amount to the United States td settle the claims, Mr.Ewing continued.That the sum was enough is evidenced by the fact that there is still some of it left in the coffers of the United States.Britain did that to promote international friendship, Mr.Ewing declared.Mr.Ewing again emphasized the importance of impartial text-books to get before the youth of the country the true story and let him see the historical events from the standpoint of each country.Thus the events would be robbed of their power to create hostility between countries and instead there would be developed a sympathetic feeling toward other rations.Th speaker said we are making progress in this direction.but not rast enough.He mentioned the fav- «rable influences exerted by the fraternal orders, the Boy Scouts, Red Cross and the service clubs, particularly Rotary and Kiwanis, which have ¢ definite aim of promoting international friendship, George A.Hastings.former administrative assistant to President Hoover, and at present extension director of the White House Conference on Child Health and Protection, was the next speaker.He was introduced by D.N.Callander, who spoke of Mr.Hastings\u2019 close relationship to Northern New York, his boyHood in Malone, his interesting career as newspaper man, promoter of philanthropic, public health and educational movements, his editorial writings and college teaching.and his appointment as assistant to President Hoover.Mr.Hastings\u2019 Address An abstract of Mr.Hastings\u2019 remarks follow: \u201cInterest in international relation- ships\u2014in peace, disarmament, foreign relations, tariffs, economic policy and the promotion of international good will\u2014is no longer confined to officials and government experts.Thé average citizen has come to realize that he has a personal stake in the relationships of his country to other nations.The casualty lists of the war were grim evidence that foreign affairs may affect his very life and that of his sons.The recent world-wide dislocation of economic life demonstrated that his pocketbook, too, feels the impact of the interruption of trade and production.Business and industry increasingly take on international aspects.\u201cThere are many viewpoints from which to consider international relations.I wish to approach the broad question from only one\u2014the interest and stake of the average man.The Housewives fact that the Malone Rotary Club is devoting today\u2019s meeting to this question is a reflection of the growing interest of business and professional men in the subject as affecting their own daily lives.\u201cUnderlying all International cgreements, whether to limit armament, secure peace, or foster trade, is the promotion of good will among the individual citizens of the several rations.When discussion of the creation of the League of Nations was at its height, Professor Jacks of Oxford made the penetrating observation that the fundamental need was for a league of peoples, as distinguished from a league of governments.That goes to the heart of the question.International good will, understanding and co-operation come not from parchments, protocols and pacts.but from the hearts and practices of men.Treaties are but the evidence of what men believe and desire.They are the concrete evidences of public opinion.Public opinion is made up of the daily thoughts, decisions, and acts of millions of men and women.\u201cAgreeing upon the desirability of peace.diminution of armament and promotion of international co-opera- tion, how shall the result be sought practically?Most men agree on the cbject.Their differences are mainly as to methods.I submit that the question\u2014which is a moral as well as political and economic problem\u2014must come out of the clouds of mere ideal- irm and wishful aspiration and come down to practical methods.Co-op- eration must be specific, not general; concrete ,not abstract; it must be defined, not vaguely generalized.And each nation and each people must come to the state of mind of being willing to sacrifice something for the common good.Without such sacrifice and without a convicition in the heart of the average man that such sacrifice is necessary.hope for international amity and teamwork is vain.\u201cInternational understanding grows not only out of diplomacy and the acts of government, but from the fraternal and social relationships of men, from business.education.and the promotion of the public health and welfare.Disease knows no national boundaries.The protection and training of children is not a narrow- 1y national problem.Education in the real and best sense is international.The outlook of the university is upof the whole world, the past, the present and the future.Colleges are playing an important part through their research, teaching and exchanging of students in fostering the understanding and spirit and supplying the fact basis upon which international unity is built.\u201cNational interests and policies we £hall always have, but there are some things within the range of our desires and hopes which transcend nationalism.Peace.security, the opportunity for individual initiative, expression and development, the desire to en- Joy.not to waste the products of civ- lized, socialized life, are the common aspirations of all men.This does not imply that we shall attain the goal of our quest through a shilly shal- iy, superficial political internationalism, Rather shall we gain it through a reasoning, rational, co-operative.unselfish nationalism motivated by a spiritual internationalism.\u201cThe essence of spiritual internationalism is mutual trust and confi- uence.Confidence is the corner stone of international concord.Nations and people come to trust each other as they observe that other nations and people deserve their trust and confidence.As individuals we trust other individuals because experience has shown us that we have reason to trust them.Nations are aggregations of individuals.An American Rotary Ciub is meeting in Canada today because of the trust and confidence whish the people on either side of the border have in each other.There is a sound and proven basis for such confidence.The fact that the thousands of miles of boundary between Canada and the United States is without fortifications or physical barriers is due to the spiritual kinship and confidence between the peoples of these nations.The situation is in contrast to the relationships between France and Germany where the road to confidence is long and difficult because of what has happened in the past.\u201cIn a word.the international good will and co-operation for which we strive will come, if and when they come, through three instrumental- ities\u2014the desires and acts of peoples, the acts of governments, and the free\u2019 development of national institutions along the line of the traditions, gen- we and history of individual nations, but with a spiritual unity which sees peace and amity rising above mere nationalism.\u201cLet us not blind ourselves to the fact that economic adjustments between nations are a major factor in peace and good-will.The essence of national sovereignity comprises the right to decide who shall and shall not be admitted to citizenship.the right to céntrol trade in the interest of the country's own nationais, the right to determine its own domestic and national policies, and to decide upon means and methods of defense in the light of its own needs and experience.These practical questions of-national policy, always complex and frequently troublesome and misunderstood, will eventually be resolved in proportion to the good faith which the nations see each other displaying in the working out of thetr own peculiar domestic problems and Everywhere Agree That \u201cOur Best\u201d Flour McDONALD & VALLEYFIELD, principles of international law not in- Is Best for Baking ROBB, Limited QUE.of their relationships to the rest of the world.Conquest of the dragons of distrust, fear.hate and insecurity can come only through the conscious development of mutual confidence on o national and practical Lasis as well as on 8 spiritual foundation.\u201c1 am speaking as an individual and citizen and not as an official.I have the profound conviction that the spirit and practice of American rublic policy offers much ground for rope and progress.We have affirmatively and on our own initiative indicated our willingness to limit armament, to promote peace.to co-oper- | ate with other nations in the practical political and international arrangements and treaties necessary te give actual effect to ideals, to refuse to recognize acts of aggression and violation of peace pacts, and to commit ourselves to the policy of international peace and economic soundness.These are acts and pol- icles which in the words of President Hoover.make public opinion tangible and effective.\u201cA Chinese philosopher has said: \u201cThe way to truth is like a great road.It is not difficult to know.The evil is only that men will not seek it.Do you go home and search for it.\u201d \u201cThere are many significant signs that men are seeking truth expressed in more unselfish relationships between nations and people.\u2019 \u2014Malone Telegram.Historic English Mill Yields to Father Time The relentless hand of time.aided and abetted by the heavy gunfire of modern war, and strengthened by a little final push from the wind, has brought destruction upon one more landmark connected with the early history of the United States.The old mill at Billericay in Essex, England, from near which the Pilgrims set sail for the new land.has collapsed.Its huge beams of solid oak, which stood the strain and stresses of time and work from the days of Pilgrims down to the outbreak of the World war, have at last foung their burden too heavy, and.as the foundations weakened, gave way during a storm.The old mill was closed during the war, as the location was considered too dangerous for the grinding of the grain of the nearby countryside.Later it fell under suspicion as a rendezvous of German spies and was boarded up.Heavy gunfire was frequent in this section, and the vibrations gradually weakened the old structure.At a house, close by the mill.was the scene of the meeting of the Pilgrim band just before it set sail for America.Close by, also, another pilgrim, but one bent upon destruction, came to the end of its journey, for one of the large German Zeppelins fell in a field adjacent to the mill.The construction of the mill was almost entirely of oak, and the huge shaft for the wheel was a tremendous oak trunk.No nails or spikes of any kind were used in the construction.Ed Note: Mr.Hastings\u2019 father was born at Dundee.and for about 40 years, Mr.Hastings has spent his summer holidays on Lake St.Francis at Fraser's Point.Soldier\u2019s Wife True to Her Duty as \u201cMuzzler\u201d The late General Edwards,

indiscreet remarks when Senator Calvin Brice tripped and fell from a stage into a row of decorative plants.But marriage put an end to this failing, for Mrs.Edwards was an ev- er-present and astute councillor.On one occasion, after the general had given a lengthy interview to a reporter, Mrs.Edwards demanded bluntly: \u201cHave you received permission.from the War department to give out this interview?\u201d \u201cWhy, no,\u201d stammered Edwards, blushing lke a boy who had been caught stealing jam.\u201cI'm sorry,\u201d said Mrs.Edwards.turning to the reporter, \u201cbut you must hôld up

life generally animates all classes of the community.Everybody feels it, but many are unable to express in the written word their feelings.To some of the members of the Amputations Association of the Great War, who publish monthly a magazine for those who have lost limbs or sight, under the title of \u201cThe Fragment.\u201d acknowledgment is given for the following contribution: Every unimproved or unplanted home in Canada can be made more attractive by the judicious use of trees, shrubs, vines, flowers and well- kept grass.The old saying that a home is not a home until it is planted very well emphasizes the necessity and wisdom of planting.Some places have lagged behind in the matter of beautification.Nature has endowed this country with the most beautiful and the greatest variety of natural scenic grandeur to be found anywhere in the universe.The unlovely spots are man-made, and {t would seem that the least we can do is to make these man-made places sufficiently attractive that they will.in some measure at least, be in'keeping with the great natural beauty to be found throughout this Domdnion.\u201cThe progressiveness and thrift of 8 community or municipality are often reflected in its appearance and the best advertising that any community can do is to present a pleasing appearance to the world\u2014an appearance of progressiveness, thrift and industry, reflected by well- planted and well-kept public and private grounds.\u201cWe are influenced to a greater extent than we realize by our surroundings.Children are particularly sensitive in this regard.Surely a home in and around which flowers are grown is à better place to bring up children than a home where no attention whatever is paid to these friends of the plant kingdom.\u2018As the twig is bent, so the tree is inclined,\u2019 is an old saying and very applicable in con- rection with the training of children.If children are taught to love flowers and to become familiar with them, their hearts will be filled with love for these things which will leave less room in their hearts and minds for the things that hurt and destroy.\u201cWe frequently meet with the objection that gardens and flowers cost too much or that they take too much time.The truth is that it is not so much a matter of money or time as it is of desire and disposition.If we are disposed to have gardens and flowers and really desire to have attractive home surroundings, we will have them no matter how busy we may be.The cost in any event need only be trifling and the amount spent on the nursery stock necessary to improve the average size home will be one of the finest investments that possibly can be made.It will pay great dividends in satisfaction and will increase the value of the home.Your individual efforts in making your home more attractive will improve your street.If your street is improved, your city or town will be improved.and if your city or town oi township is made more beautiful you have helped to

\u2018\u201cMacBeth.' is one of the most interesting places in Scotland.It was the girlhood home of the Duchess of York.\u2018The castle, as scen nowadays, dates mostiy from the seventeenth century.but the walls of the tower.15 feet thick, were built when MacBeth was Thane of Cawdor.Shakespeare took a dramatic liberty when he had Mac- Beth murder Duncan within these walls, but nevertheless Glamis is rich in romantic associations.On the authority of Sir Walter Scott, we are told that the castle contains \u201ca secret chamber.the entrance to which, by the law or the custom of the family, must only be known to three persons at once, namely, the Earl, his heir apparent and any third person they may take into their confidence.Weird stories have been told of some ghastly creature being imprisoned in the secret chamber for centuries, but the mystery has never been cleared up to appease the cur- Boarding Out Proposed For Mental Patients Over 4,000 Patients in Foster Homes in Erlangen, Germany\u2014Cheaper, and Better for Patients Canadian mental hospitals contain about 30,000 men and wüttnel Their keep now amounts to over $10,- 000,000 a year.The yearly increase is about 1,800 patients, which means a further annual cost of more than $500,000.to say nothing of $3.000,000 which must be spent for new hospital buildings.Merely building more hospitals will not solve this problem.Furthermore the cost will soon become more than the public can stand.An interesting alternative is being tried at Gheel Belgium, at Erlangen, Germany, and other European centres.This method consists of placing patients in foster-homes.At Erlan- gen, for instance, the experiment was begun 21 years ago.The mental hospital was crowded and there Was no money for a new building.So six patients were placed in selected homes in the community.The results were very encouraging.Gradually.as householders lost their fear of mental patients and learned how to care for them, others were boarded out.To-day there are over 4000 pat- fents in boarding-homes in the vicinity of Erlangen \u2014about four times as many as there are in the hospita! from which the whole scheme is worked.Patients are given a preliminary period of observation and care in the hospital before they are boarded out.Regular supervision.depending upon the particular needs of the patient, is supplied by trained workers from the hospital.The patients are practically as free as they would be if afflicted with tuberculosis or any other phy- gical disabllity.There are some drawbacks.of course, but these are more than balanced by the advantages.In the aggregate the system works very well.The cost is about one-fourth less than hospital costs\u2014and the expenses of building new hospitals is also

Snake Worshippers Strange Tribe in South Seas Now Almost Vanished Remnants of a strange tribe of snake worshippers {in the highlands of New Georgia, one of the Solomon Islands, are reported by J.H.L.Waterhouse in the British anthropological journal, \u201cMan.\u201d These people are known as the Ka- zukurus.No white man, says Water- house, ever has seen one of their village sites in the rough hill country and very few of them are left, although there is a mixture of their blood in the rest of the New Georgia population.A Kazukuru altar is an prooted tree placed in an inverted position so that the roots are uppermost.All sorts of snakes are held sacred.They also are reported to consider the crab a holy animal.The tribe has been almost wiped out by leprosy.Waterhouse obtained a vocabulary of several hundred Ka- zukuru words from which it may be possible to trace the raclal connections of the almost vanished primitives.Central Packing There is no doubt that the reputation of Ontario apples will be greatly enhanced by central packing which ensures uniformity and higher quality.The cold storage plants, which have given a fresh impetus to central packing and exporting, are likely to contribute very considerably to the marketing of berries and tender fruits.Such product can be held in storage for a time and thus the season can be substantially extended.Moreover, by pre-cooling, and shipping in properly refrigerated cars, berries and tender fruits may be landed In satisfactory condition in Winnipeg, or Quebec and the Maritime Provinces\u2014Farmer's Advocate.Cheese wrapped in a cloth dampened with vinegar, then covered with a dry cloth, will keep soft a long time.= To several months.\u2014 \u2014 \u2014\u2014 I Radio Days Are Coming Closer Soon summer activities will be drawing to a close and the season of indoor diversion open up.You will be turning to the radio as the source of greatest and most varied home pleasure.Be prepared to get the fullest possible enjoyment out of the coming season.The new models of the popular makes of radio, featuring many new improvements, are procurable at surprisingly low figures.We allow a liberal discount on old models turned in.And the payment There is now no reason why there should not be an up-to-date radio, furnishing the most economical entertainment, in every home.Let us explain how easily we can place one in yours.Beauharnois Electric Company Limited Store at Valleyfield, Que.| Representatives at St.Remi, Huntingdon, Beauharnois _Feature Page The parson this time decided to put the $10 in the bank.The bank teller found that the $10 bill was counterfeit.Now the point of the story is this.Over $500 worth of goods had changed hands in that community and one man had obtained a wife\u2014 all through the circulation of that $10 bill.And nobody lost a cent, even though the bill was counterfeit.Now if a counterfeit $10 bill will do that, think of the power that a real $10 bill exercises, and goes on exercising, once it is put into circulation!

Is known as the No.I Rabbit Fence of Western Australia.Altogether the rabbit fences of Western Australia remains a menace, for every cost over $1,750,000 to erect.They pri constantly patrolled by boundary ers.There is another great fence separating New South Wales from South Australia.It sometimes happens that great rains fall on the side of the fence where there are no rabbits, while a great drought exists on the other side.Then a vast migration begins.A vast host, hundreds upon hundreds oft thousands of rabbits, are on the move.And that is where the six- foot fence, topped with barbed wire, comes in.Along one side of the fence the ground is alive with racing rod- cents seeking a way through into the country where not a rabbit is to be seen.Pulse May Vary A person's pulse rate over a period of time may vary 10 to 15 beats a minute without causing particular reason for considering him abnormal.Up and down they rush till the sun kills them.They die in hundreds every minute.Emaciated by a hundred- mile trek, famished for water.the fence balks and the sun kills them.They die at the foot of the fence.Still others arrive in battalions in divisions, In army corps, as though there was no end to the stream.They die on the top of their dead comrades until there is a swathe of dead rabbits two feet deep and a yard wide, stretching perhaps for fifty miles.Yet in spite of this terrific death rate, the rabbit population of Australia remains a mance, for every doe gives birth to from four to seven rabbits every nine weeks, and her daughters when they are nine weeks old begin to breed with like regularity.Drought and the great fences keep them from over-running the whole continent.cool and healthful Kellogg's PEP Bran Flakes are crisp.Cooling.Ensy to

it.A village parson saw A nice-looking piece of paper fluttering on the sidewalk.He picked it up and found it to be a $10 bill.He went into a store and bought a $10 article he wanted.The storekeeper went to a friend's store and bought a lawn-mower with the $10.The hardware man bought $10 worth of products from a farmer.The farmer, with ready money in his hand paid a bill he owed.The man who receipted the bill spent the money to good purpose.And so it went for days.Finally the $10 came to & man who had been waiting to sce some good money in order to get married.It ended up with the $10

E.Barrett, THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER PE Covey Hill Plays by Hemmingford Talent.\u2014 On Saturday evening, Aug.27th, a very interesting entertainment was given in the Town Hall under the auspices of Trinity Church, the receipts amounting to $35.25.Two one- act Plays by Hemmingford friends were successfully presented.Several choruses were very enjoyably rendered by local talent.Instrumental selections by Mr.Jessup of Toronto were heartily applauded, and Miss Irene McAllister recited in a very pleasing manner.During the course of his remarks from the chair, Rev.Mr.Howard referred to the fact that a most highly esteemed member of Trinity Church, Mrs.L.P.Cole, had that day celebrated her 92nd birthday, and conveyed to her, through members of her family who were present.the hearty congratulations and good wishes of the congregation.Trinity Church Anniversary.\u2014 As August 27th was the 75th anniversary of Trinity Church, Havelock, a special service was held in the church on Sunday afternoon, August 28th.Rev.Mr.Howard preached a very forceful sermon, urging his hearers to value the work done by their parents and strive to make the church a blessing to the community.Special hymns were sung and the edifice was beautifully decorated with flowers and flags.In connection with this service it was recalled that Mrs.L.P.Cole was the sole surviving member of the congregation who had been present at the opening of the church in 1857, and also that she was the first bride to be wedded within its walls, her marriage having taken place on her eighteenth birthday, which was also the first anniversary of the church's opening.As a slight recognition of the faithful and active part taken by her in the life and work of the church, immediately preceding last Sunday's service a brief but pleasing ceremony was enacted.On her arrival at the church door, Mrs.Cole was received by two of the oldest members, Miss S.Gilmore and Miss McCort, who presented her with a beautiful bouquet and escorted her to her seat.Presbyterian Church Meetings.\u2014 Preparatory to the communion ser- vce last Sunday the concluding mas- Secretary-Treasurer.M.C.T.G Province of
