Montreal Cottons Co.Ltd.plant at Valleyfield.once synonymous with the manufacture of cotton on a large scale, This plant, the largest of its kind in Canada, was founded in 1874 by a group of foresighted men who built more wisely than they knew; all those who were active in the building of these mills have passed on.In 1934, this great enterprise will have reached its diamond jubilee which fact alone testifies to the solidity of its business foundations.Whether a visitor enter Valleyfield by motor, by train or by air, the distant horizon is filled with a view of this mammoth plant which is built almost entirely of stone, in a style of architecture, which, with its massive walls, battlemented towers and heavy doors, suggests rather a feudal castle than an industrial centre, The orl- ginal promoters of this scheme foresaw the value of electric and water power.They planned big, they built big and in their planning and building, with power in view, they changed the whole topography of the waterways in the immediate district.They built a dam across Lake St.Francis, securing from the Dominion Government a century's rights to the power that they might wrest from Nature.They constructed a flume through which the lake flowed at the rate of three feet a second and they transformed the arm which connected Lake St.Francis with Lake St.Louis into a tail-race that is known today as the \u201cLost Channel.\u201d But with other days came other ways and nearly sixty years later the imposing dream of tilting Lake St.Francis bodily into Lake St.Louis became an engineering reality with the building of the mighty Beauhar- nois Canal and now the Montreal Cottons is operated by the energy that flows through one of the greatest canals in the world, Railway lines lead directly into the walls of this huge plant where bales of raw cotton from all parts of the earth are unloaded, tested and sent into a process of mixing which results in the production of a varied set of fabrics ranging from the finest nainsook to heavy tapestries which are the equal of foreign looms.Cotton comes from Egypt, the South Sea Islands and from the Sunny fields of the Southern States.These bales weigh about five hundred pounds each and in order to keep the thousands of looms and spindes busy about fifteen thousand bales are required during the year's work.The plant is a small city in itself, employing from two thousand to two thousand five hundred operatives.It is one of the most complete cotton manufacturing units in existence as the weaving and spinning is supplemented by extensive bleaching, dyeing and finishing machinery.to say nothing of the maintenance of a complete machine-shop whose lathes and other intricate machines keep pace with the wear and tear of sucit a great institution; paint-shops, belting rooms tin shops, etc.complete the sundry assortment of necessities required to carry on this enterprise.For the production of textiles alone there are about 4,000 looms and 165.- 000 spindles, all of which are the most modern obtainable.Just recently much of the old type machinery has been replaced at a cost that called for more than a million dollars.When one considers the yearly output on a basis of nearly 40,000,000 yards of cloth, it is difficult to realize that the daily production approaches 100,000 yards, and the payroll is commensurately staggering as $1350204.00 was the sum paid out for the year 1932.In this enormous amount of finished cotton there is a wide enough range in variety to please the most exacting and fastidious housewife, for every fabric is found including satins, poplins, sat- eens, tablecloths, twills, nainsooks, linings and even shirtings of all kinda fon her husband and sons.The executive and financial offices of the Montreal Cottons Limited are also situated at Valleyfield where W.G.E.Aird 15 the manager and H.A Wilson and O W.Gurmhem are secretary-treasurer and assistant regpective- When the magic letters \u201cB.S.A.\" are mentioned.the typical bustling English city of Birmingham is envisioned, when the name of Krupp is spo- Germany, are called to mind.when the smoke-laden, foggy hills of Pitts burg, America loom in the distance and when Canadians think of Valley- field, Quebec\u2014or for that matter any Britisher or even an American\u2014 the Montreal Cottons Limited becomes at cut Canada as he has spent a quarter of a century in acquiring exper- fence in the manufacture of cotton textiles while Mr.Wilson and Mr.,| Gurnham have between them given more than two generations of loyal , service to this firm.The sales offices are in Montreal in charge of Mr.E.A.Robertson.The president of the corporation is F.G.Daniels who is supported by an able and representative board of directors who are all prominent in Canadian business and life.With this brief statement of bold facts and figures, the impression is rightly gained that this business venture has become part and parcel of not only the stability of the community of Valleyfield which it directly serves, but that its millions of capital have made it throughout the years an important asset to the growing financial life of Canada.But assets of buildings, money, machinery and material things are not all that contribute to the well-being of a business firm.The early days of industry, in their relation to its workmen, especially that of cotton manufacture, constitutes one of the most sordid chapters in history.The long hours of work, extreme child labour, the cruelties of the capital system make one shudder at the barbarities of that age not so long passed and there is rejoicing at the new attitude which considers labour as more than serf and chattel.Big business is finding out gradually that it is big business to consider those who weave and spin and build more than mere robots who are impersonal units.For years\u2014and more recently this spirit has been intensified\u2014the Montreal Cottons has been doing its share in this pioneer work.Houses have been built, and improved upon from time to time, a dairy of modern type is operated, there is a clubhouse which includes lounging rooms, billiard tables, a circulating library and a curling rink.There are also PROMINENT PHYSICIAN Dr.C.L.Roman Attending physician at Montreal Cottons Co.Lid.,, and who enjoys a large practice throughout Valleyfield.Dr.Roman, a gifted writer, has often contributed to the Gleaner columns.tennis courts and bowling greens upon which experts delight to play, and a football field where thrilling matches are seen in season.À well- equipped hospital with the services of three physicians and a nurse ministered to 8500 injured and sick during the past year.Along with the general trend of the times, with financial problems, the collapse of world markets, the economic unrest that is prevalent, the unemployment distress, the Montreal Cottons has dutifully carried on, trying to solve its own peculiar problems and lending the weight of its position and morale in assisting to alleviate the difficulties of Valley- field in difficult times and looks steadily forward to 1933 for a brighter and more prosperous year.BEGIN MAKING BRIDGE STEEL To Help Relieve Unemployment Contractors Have Agreed to Start Steel Manufacturing Making of steel for the new La- Salle-Caughnawaga bridge will commence immediately and the Dominion Bridge Company, Limited, will employ at least 50 men at its Lachine plant for this purpose, a delegation of four Lachine aldermen was assured in an interview with members of the Lake St.Louis Bridge Corporation.As a result of pressure brought to bear by Premier L.A.Taschereau, Hon.Honoré Mercier, Minister of Lands and Forests, and Hon.R.O.Grothé, M.L.C., the contractors have agreed to start the steel manufacturing at once in order to help relieve unemployment, the corporation informed the Lachine delegation.While everything possible will be done to see thut Lachine residents are given a fair share of the work, the delegation was told that the contractors could not be forced to employ Lachine labor only and it is likely that some Ville LaSalle citizens will be among those employed, although the final decision rests with the company itself.The Lake St.Louis Corporation has taken all the necessary precautions to assure that preference will be given to Canadian materials and that a reasonable salary and wage scale will be maintained, an officer of the corporation stated.After the meeting a spokesman for the Lachine delegation, which was made up of Aldermen John H.Fyon, E.Leduc, A.8t.Onge, and L.Gaston, announced that the Lachine representatives had been well received and that they were satisfied with the outcome of the interview.It i8 understood that work at the Lachine plant of the Dominion Bridge Company.Limited, will be started as soon as possible, probably within a week's time.Members of the Lake St.Louis Bridge Corporation present at the interview were Hon.Raoul Grothé, M.L.C., president; J.A.Trudeau, vice-president; Louis Chatelle, secre- tary-treasurer; Robert R.Ness, and Joseph Dupont, commissioners.Radium Sources Development By Local Boys\u2019 Company Following an announcement to the had made arrangements to furnish Madame Curie, famous discoverer of the radium treatment for cancer, with supplies of radium from Canada a pronouncement on the affalr was requested from Hon.Charles McCrea, Ontario Minister of Mines.He sald he knew nothing of the plan to obtain radium from Canada.He expressed surprise that France should look in this direction for her radium and pointed out that there is no immediate supply available in Canada.\u201cIt is only a matter of months, however,\u201d he sald, \"before Canada can have a supply on hand.At present there are two possible sources\u2014 Great Bear Lake and Wilberforce, in Haliburton county, Ontario.\u2018There Ls no doubt that both of these locations can produce radium.It is now only a matter of processing it.But if there were an immediate call for an order we could not supply it.\u201d \u201cIt would be a tremendous thing for Canada,\u2019 commented E.E.Hamp- son, president and general manager of the Sterling Great Bear Byndicate, which has large holdings In the heart of the radium ore region at Great Bear lake.Mr.Hampson was enthusiastic over the possibility of the Great Bear development and the profits which would accrue to Canada over the sale of the precious metal.$200,000,000 Worth Needed \u201cAt present,\u201d he pointed out, \u201cthere LOCAL WOMEN'S INSTITUTE MTG The Huntingdon's Women's Institute met on Tuesday afternoon in the United Church parlor.In the absence of the president, Mrs.W.L.Can took the chair.The executive was appointed to be the Programme Committee to draft a programme for the coming year.AU Conveners were requested to consult their outlines o: prepared for the February meeting The treasurer reported that the Annual Provincial and County fees had been paid.Mrs.Gardiner reporteu for the Child Welfare Department and gave a lengthy list showing clothing, etc., distributed to various needy mothers and children.In regard to the Maternity Loan Basket Mrs.Hood sald that it had been in recent use amd suggestions were given the committee by other members in this regard.It was generally felt that special concentration on this work was a necessity in the present times.Mrs.Hood and Mrs.Gardiner will be glad to give advice and assistance at any time.Mrs.H.R.Graham, Convener for Legislation, gave a very interesting address on Current Events in this department.She dealt with the Imperial Conference Agreements and the progress towarde fulfilling them: the recent payment of war debts by England to America and the present difficulties in France over the same question.The Quebec Legislature was opening its session to-day, sald the speaker.Two questions of interest to women would probably be dealt with, viz, Old Age Pensions and the Franchise for Women.The matter of Incorporation of the Institute was discussed but the matter was laid over for another mecting.Holstein Resumé And Prospects Canadian breeders of Holstein cattle had a favorable export trade in 1932, the volume of business transacted with foreign countries involving the sale of 4898 head, an average output of approximately 100 head a week for the whole year.Most of these animals were purchased in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec, and all the breeding areas from London to Sherbrooke and Quebec City shared in effect that the French Government contributing to the shipments sent! abroad.The prices realized, were of course, somewhat lower than the figures pald in 1931, nevertheless, a creditable average considering prevailing condl- tions.reached the pockets of the breeders.who all very deeply appre- clated the available market which provided an outlet for their surplus stock all periods of the year, and brought them returns, equally as good, and even better than anything else produced on thelr farms.Cows ranging In age from three to six years, and well forward in calf, or just freshened, were mostly in demand by the buyers, who, according to the Extension Department of the Holstein-Friesian Assoclation, were found more exacting in their requirements covering both type and production, than they had been in prev- fous years.The females that sold to the best advantage, were those, of good size, well fitted, and giving indication of being heavy producers.Regarding the future of this export trade to be rather pronounced, that it will herds established.In this connection it 1s worth ob- Business of Past Year Re work and to have their suggestions in Holsteins which has been growing steadily during the past four years, the general feeling seems continue to expand, as many foreign countries are now commencing to look to Canada for foundation cattle of this breed,

worl after the holidays, the Rural Inter scholastic Hockey League, sponsored by the Provincial Association of Pro testant School Boards will get unde way with its 1933 schedule, and th race for the Association's cup.Two new sections have been ad mitted.A thir ,-otion has appliec and been inviirt to , bu has not yet decided whether it w be practicable or not, This section would be made up of teams fron Shawville and Aylmer, up the Ottaw: Valley.The league is at present composed of teams from the High Schools a Valleyfieid, Huntingdon, Ormstov Howick, Bedford, Cowansville, Knowl ton, Waterloo, Granby, Magog, Ayer\u2019 Cliff, North Hatley, East Angud Cookshire, Bawyerville, ooks d Scotstown, Lake Megantic.It is to be noted that Cookshire playing a double schedule.In form ing the two sections in the Comptoi area five teams applied for admis sion.This called for one two-tes section and one three-team sectio No two schools wished to be entered in a two-team schedule and after long discussion Cookshire sportingl volunteered to play in each of th two sections.Huntingdon, last year's champio are looking forward to a successf year.They have lost heavily fron last year's line-up but still have good intermediate team to draw.from Valleyfleld and Howick will be a strong as last year, while Ormstow]] will be a greater threat this year.Bedford is seasoning a young tes having lost practically their whol team through graduation.Cowans ville is expected to be very much the front, as they wlll have the sam line-up, intact, which gave Hunting don such an argument here, in th playoff last spring.Granby, last year's runners-up, hav suffered a little from graduatio while their section running mates Waterloo and Knowlton will be strong, or stronger than last year Granby won the section cup last yea.but one guess is as good as nnothe regarding results this season.Magog and North Hatley will plac practically the same teams as las year, on the ice, while the team fron

community has a certain number of people who cannot resist shoplifting, which in plain English is nothing short of stealing.It has aappened in many stores, and on many occasions in Huntingdon.This winter is no exception, for only a few days ago shoplifters were caught in wo Huntingdon stores.In both cases the guilty parties paid the price lemanded by the merchant, so that the matter might drop at that point.n Dunnville, Ont., during the Christmas season, a woman, considered re- pectable, and in comfortable circumstances, was caught taking merchan- lise worth about $1.00.She was taken to court and by the time she got hrough with it it cost her $20.She gladly paid the amount.No names vere mentioned in connection with the case but the merchants of the town «greed that the next case caught be prosecuted and names printed in he local press.Not a bad idea for the merchants of the Chateauguay Talley to copy.The Gleaner will do the publishing if the storekeepers nake the prosecution and get a conviction.The sneak thief in a store leserves no better treatment than being scorned and despised by all people n the neighbourhood.If the shoplifter were prosecuted, she or he would ertainly be looked down upon by everyone, and what is more, shoplifting rould become a thing of the past.Curling\u2014\" The Roarin° Game\" Saturday saw nigh 800 men participate in curling at Montreal in ompetition for the Edinburgh Trophy.In the Province of Quebec it is stimated that there are 5,800 curlers, so Saturday saw the 800 enthusiasts à Montreal.Why such a gathering one might well question.Well, the rovince of Quebec and a portion of Ontarlo have for some reason or ther varied the game from the accustomed rule throughout all countries, there the game is played, and in place of playing with granite stones we ave been using iron blocks.Mr.T.Howard Stewart of Montreal is a reat curling enthusiast and has spent à very considerable sum of money owards the introduction, of granite curling in Quebec.It must be a great eal of satisfaction to Mr.Stewart to see how his efforts have materialized, or today granite curling is nearly as much played in Quebec province as ; the iron game.Saturday's bonspiel was the big granite day for 1933 in fontreal.Curling is looked upon as a Scotchman's national game.It is true he credit is so placed today, but in reality it belongs to the Dutchman.Mitch stones are known to date back to 1511, and what is more they were o perfected that it is reasonable to believe the game was played on the anals in Holland for many years, or perhaps generations.However, it is be Scotchman who is credited with having carried the game through the enerations and centuries that have followed, and have made the winter port so popular where climate permits of its being played.As far as ecords go it appears that curling was introduced to Canada in 1759.In his instance it was a case of the British soldiers who were here for the onquest of Canada that played the game.In the District of Beauharnois we have six curling clubs, the first eing established at English River in 1825, the next, 59 years later at Ymstown in 1884.In 1891 the Huntingdon Club was organized and in 800 the Valleyfield Club came into being.Howick and Aubrey were or- anized in 1907 and 1908 respectively.Curling continues to spread and will so long continue.It is a whole- ome game for both men and women.Today there are thirty or more adies curling clubs in our province and over {fifty for men.The oldest club mongst the ladles of this District is that of Ormstown which was started 1 1900.To our readers who have not become members of a local curling lub we urge them to do so.You will enjoy the game, the good fellow- hip that follows, and besides curling is & purely amateur game which askes it all the more commendable.The Quiet Hour One thing which the Oxford Group demands of its followers is the quiet hour\u201d of meditation.Whether one agrees with their religious con- eptions or not, he must thank them for bringing more people to realize ae importance of inward questioning, thought, and contemplation.Every- \u2018here one hears this \u2018quiet hour\u201d discussed.Some laugh and say it is npossible.They loathe to be alone even to think; that their mind is a lank; that they go to sleep.Others can appreciate its value.Whether the \u201cquiet hour\u201d is a meditation on religion, or a purely mtemplative hour, it is to be commended.People can improve them- ilves by it, find company in their thoughts, and learn about themselves.lany have never explored their own minds.Some have never known the sauty and pleasure of day dreaming.Try the quiet hour and see if it oes not bring a reward.Rebuilding Your Trade and Income Close upon four hundred years ago, out of the harbour of the ancient aport of 8t.Malo, salled Jacques Cartier\u2014master pilot in the service of rancis the First of France\u2014sworn to explore the perilous coasts that reton fishing vessels had long since sighted.Planting a cross at Gaspé, 8 returned to France and reported to his master, \u201cIt is the fairest land wt may possibly be seen.\u201d Years passed by, and another grim-eyed representative of his King oks out over the virgin wilderness that was then New France, and, see- \u2018@ his vision, wrote, \u201cI am convinced that in the future this country will scome something great.\u201d And now, as that future becomes our past, another representative of aother king speaks, this time of a greater Canada than our fathers ever reamed :\u2014 \u201cOur troubles are very real, and to overcome them will test the very foundations, the very genius of our civilization.But if we | lose the one thing that no man need ever lee, that is, FAITH, \u2018 then indeed the fault will not be in the stars, but in ourselves.I refuse to entertain for one moment any doubt as to the ulti- , | mate future of Canada.\u201d i | Through the grace of God and

Kamsas, Mrs.Emma Schope's most difficult problem was to keep her fowls from jumping the fence and being run down by motor cars.Every trick and scheme tnat gave any promise of curbing the birds\u2019 flight was tried without results until she devised a little wooden yoke after the fashion of yokes put on fence-breaking cattle.Now there is no more fence- jumping and so unique is the sight of the flock, each bird with its yoke on, that motorists frequently stop to \u201coh\u201d and \u201cah\u201d in wonderment.Paris Yo-Yo Mad Yo-yo, the toy which is now experiencing a vogue of almost incredible popularity in France, may be only a diversion to Parisians, but to the woodworkers of the Jura district it means work once more.Many of the wood-turning factories which constitute one of the principal industries of the region had closed down.Since the advent of the yo-yo in France this summer, however, large orders have been placed with the turners of the Jura.As a result, factories and workshops are re-opening and the price of the dry wood used has already risen considerably.Gold in Bear Pelts A new gold discovery is claimed by University of Michigan scientists, The gold, according to Dr.Dow V.Baxter, professor of civics and forest pathology, was found in the pelts of four silver tipped grizzly bears, shot in Alaska.As a result of the find, Doctor Baxter has written to Alaska in an effort to learn something of the habits of bears.He believes the grizzlies \u201cpicked up\u201d the gold while rolling in a Yukon stream.Cow Goes on Rampage A cow went on a rampage in Bristol, England, recently and before it was caught it had climbed a narrow flight of stairs in a house in Bedminster, Bristol, walked into the bedroom of an invalid woman, aged 64; charged a parrot, which squawked; got its head under the bed and nearly threw the invalid, Mrs.Minnie Morgan, out of bed; broke some crockery and go! its head wedged in a cupboard.It was eventually caught and pushed downstairs.Was it a Lucky Break?Mrs.Marie Anticebuch, of Chicago, awoke from a nap to see an automobile standing beside a Christmas tree in her parlor and for a moment she wondered why.John H.Smale, a dean of the Lewis Institute, who was at the wheel, explained that his machine had come right through the wall of the Antice- buch home after he had swerved to avoid hitting another car in the street.While he reasoned it wasn't his fault, he agreed to pay the damage, which was doubly satisfactory to Mrs.Anticebuch, because her husband, Tony, a carpenter, will get the job.\"Twas a Rare Gift A distinguished Canadian statesman has a $100 American bill as a New Year's gift, but its value is nil.With the \u201cgreenback\u201d came a commentary note in the mail.Why, the statesman\u2019s friends asks, should the United States insist on full payment of war debts?Why should the Canadian dollar be at a discount in New York?The bill was issued by the Confederate States during the American Civil War.After the defeat of the South the Confederate bills, which had been issued largely for war purposes, became worthless.They have not been redeemed.Ten years ago, $500 worth of these bills could be purchased in New York for 10 cents.PS Stork Fails Mussolini Premier Mussolini, of Italy, has had his way in just about everything so far as the welfare of his nation is concerned.One exception is the activity of the stork.II Duce had hoped Italy would show 300,- 000 surplus births over deaths.Instead, there was a surplus of only 186,000 births, as against 224,000 during the same period of 1931 and 270,000 during the first half of 1930.In fact, Italy, along with every other country except possibly Russia, is showing a decline in birthrate.In 1884, 39 bables were born annually for every 1,000 of Italy's population.By 1800 the number had fallen to 35.Now it is about 25, Church-Going Chicken Chickens in that section of Cornelisville, Pa., are mighty lazy birds or Mrs.F.W.Jones is a mighty careful driver.Her car attracted much attention as she drove up to a local church.And no wonder for there on the rear bumper was a chicken\u2014sound asleep.Skier Saved His Dog A shaggy Newfoundland dog that has saved human lives in the past had the debt repaid recently in the vicinity of Gracefield, P.Q., through the gallantry of J.8.W.Thompson, of Toronto.The dog, who is owned by Herbert Merleau, of Gracefield, was with a party of skiers in the Gracefield district.It was in a frisky mood and suddenly dashed out on to the ice of the Blue Sea river.The thin ice gave way under the weight of the animal and it was plunged into the swift current.Mr.Thompson, noticing its plight, stretched out at full length on the water- covered ice, and, with the assistance of his friends, who obtained a firm hold on his feet, managed to grasp the canine, after which both were dragged to safety.The dog had been in the icy water for approximately \u2018five minutes, breaking the thin ice with its paws in attempting to save itself, before Mr.Thompson was able to rescue it.Neither rescuer nor rescued suffered any ill effects from the experience.Le A Wolf's Fate Edwin Berg of Leavenworth, Kansas, kept the wolf from the door by grabbing it by the throat.The wolf, pursued by a tiring hound, dashed through a field where the 19-year-old Berg was husking corn.Berg gave chase and as the animal cut back through a hedge, seized it.He held it until his father arrived to kill it with a pocket knife.Giving a Castle Away Generous gift was made to Forres, Scotland, by Sir Alexander Grant, a widely-known philanthropist.It is a property known as Castlehill, one of the most historical landmarks in Scotland.From it can be seen the ruins of the old Castle of Forres, which was razed to the ground in the seventeenth century.It was the scene of a great deal of Shakespeare's \u201cMacbeth.\u201d In its career, the castle, which was once a royal palace in the days of William the Lion, in 1170, was several times demolished, and two of Scotland's early kings met their deaths in it.Naughty Police Mans If there's one thing Abe Leider of Philadelphia, is fussy about it's the technique of policemen who arrest him.Explaining why he punched Patrolman Miller who took him into custody for selling paper bags without a permit, Abe declared: \u201cCaptain, I've been arrested by a lot of cops, but this guy that just, grabbed me has absolutely no style.He made me mad, so I swung on him.\u201d Common Dye to Revive A 54-year-old man, who emergency hospital attendants declared lay for an hour as if dead, from carbon monoxide poison, was revived -at San Francisco by an injection of methylene blue\u2014a common dye.The methylene blue treatment, developed by two University of California scientists, recently was used successfully in a case of cyanide poisoning.So far as is known, physicians said it is the first time it has been used on a person as & carbon monoxide treatment.The treatment was applied to Allen D.Mabry, who police sald was found lying in his garage near the exhaust of his automobile, after efforts to revive him with artificial respiration failed.Physi- clans sald he would live.Fifty Years on Train Back in 1880 Fred Maloney began firing one of the old wood-burning locomotives on the Central Vermont railway.He was soon advanced to engineer and is still at it.In his 52 years of service at the throttle, Maloney estimates he has driven trains over 2,000,000 miles.He has long been eligible to retirement but prefers to stay on the job in his engine cab.$4800 in the Stove Otta Laabs, of Wausau, Wis,, did not have the money to pay funeral expenses of his sister, Martha, 50 he started selling her furniture Friday.He offered an old stove for $5, but decided he might get more if he cleaned it.In an oven compartment he found a roll of bills totalling $4,800.Champion U.S.Liar Twelve hundred self-admitted liars were in a state of expectancy as they waited the annual selection of the champion liar of the United States.O.W.Butts, of Bay City, Mich,, was prepared to relinquish the title bestowed upon him last year.Before naming the new champion the three judges prepared to wade through the written lies of contestants from all over America.Anything that bordered on the truth would eliminate the contestant, they said.The contest began in 1929 when Captain Anton Delano told such a big fish story that his listeners had made a silver medal bearing his name and the following inseription: \u201cChampion liar, U.S.\u201d Rats Threaten Duncannon Duncannon, Ireland, is threatened with a plague of rats, and the City Council has been considering methods of averting the menace, One is that the town dump be converted into a dog racing track.A councilman reported at a meeting that thousands of rats were in the dump, and were now spreading into the town.In houses at the lower end of the town residents were catching them 10 to 12 daily.The clerk said that the Surveyor had been appointed rat exterminator.The Surveyor said he would not deal with rats, and added that the police are shooting at them.It was decided to refer the matter to the Sanitary Committee, with a recommendation that poison be laid while the Council thinks up something better.A Bare Bear Escape With his shoulder in bandages as a result of his recent encounter with a grizzly bear, Hamilton P.Caldwell, Jr, Purdue University student, was at his _home in Topeka, Kansas, and hesitated in narrating how he escaped from the large bear that dragged him from his camp in the Yellowstone National Park.Caldwell and his roommate at the university, Bud Judah, St.Louis, were encamped In one of the widest sections of the National Park.About 2 o'clock in the morning Caldwell was awakened rudely as the griz- Zly's teeth sank into his shoulder.Despite the youth's screams and struggle, the large bear dragged him out of the camp.Down a gulch, apparently toward his den, the grizzly dragged young Caldwell.Judah and others in the camp were shouting by that time and the bear released his grip and left the camp.Caldwell was taken to a hospital where his mangled shoulder was treated.After four days in the hospital, he and Judah started the automobile trip home.Rangers in the park reported that only once before in their knowledge had a man escaped from the teeth of a grizzly, Ed.Note\u2014Caldwell is a nephew of Peter Caldwell, formerly of Huntingdon, and is & relative of Mrs, T.8.Gardiner's.Kidder Was Kidded Three women of a wandering gypsy tribe visited Jack Kidder, proprietor of a gasoline filling station, at Detroit, Michigan.They promised excitement if Kidder wrapped up six five-dollar bills in a handkerchief.Kidder followed their instructions.When he opened the handkerchief\u2014after the gypsies were gone \u2014the bills had vanished.Kidder called police, who arrested the gypsies.Unperturbed, the women pointed to Kidder's shirt front.Kidder opened his shirt, The six five-dollar bills fell out.\u201cYou wouldn't id a Kidder?\u201d he asked the women as police released them.\u201cWe would and we could,\u201d one gypsy replied.Franklin Township Council Franklin Council met Jan.3rd, 1933.Members all present.Mrs.Henry Vaillancourt came before the board about keeping Jos.Vaillancourt 8r., claiming she could not keep

chariot, but would probably express little astonishment over the highway itself, This can be gained from a resume of road building prepared by Thomas E.Stanton, Jr, California state research engineer.Although chemistry is perfecting \u201cbinders,\u201d the basic materials used in road construction today were used more than 5,000 years ago, he points out.About 95 per cent of the standard paving mixture consists of rock, sand and earth.The problem is to find the best cement to bind these materials into a strong wear-resisting mass.The term \u201casphalt\u201d may be traced back to Babylonian times, he shows.Its first use was as a cement for joining various objects.But Nabopolas- sar adopted it for a different purpose.He made, according to his son Nebuchadnezzar, \u2018a road glistening with asphalt and burned brick.Nabu and Marduk, when you traverse these streets, may benefits for me rest upon your lips.\u201d What the taxpayers (If there were any) thought of the situation is not indicated, although they probably enjoyed the roads and complained about the costs later.The Incas of Peru, about 1500, constructed an elaborate system of highways, some of which was paved with a composition not unlike modern bituminous macadam, Mr.Stanton states.It was not until 1858 that the first large area of asphalt roadway was constructed, in Paris.While showing that the ancients had their asphalt roads, Mr.Stanton declares that the chemist and the concrete technologist are improving Valleyfield Mrs.Chicoine Dead.\u2014 Madame Chicoine, wife of J.A.Chicoine, prominent

just a taste to begin with.We do not feel like eating and we do not enjoy our meals if we are tired.The child should be rested when he sits down to eat.He should not come direct to the table from exciting play.A quiet period should precede and follow meals.We are more hungry on some days than others.It is not to be expected that the child will eat the same amount of food each day.A developing cold, or other illness, causes loss of -appetite.It is better for the child that he do not eat more than he needs, or to eat if illness is coming on.The child is greatly influenced by the attitude of the grown-ups.When he takes his meals with the family, he will very likely refuse any food which he sees his father or mother refuse.This is not due to heredity; it is imitation.Children desire attention; they en- Joy being the centre of attraction.If they find they can attract attention by refusing to eat, they gain their objective.Care should be taken at ail times to avoid showing the child, by word, look or action, that his failure to eat is causing any concern.The child's eating habits should not be discussed or referred to in his presence.At a much more early age than most parents realize, children are aware of and pay attention to the conversation that is going on about them.It is the worrying mother who creates many feeding problems because the child knows he can gain her attention by not eating and thus causing his mother to worry.Questions concerning Health, addressed to the Canadian Medical Association, 184 College Street, Toronto, will be answered personally by letter.Twenty years ago there was hardly a score of ski enthusiasts in Eastern Canada.What few were found were principally young people of Scandinavian origin, who had inherited a love of this sport.And then, overnight, Eastern Canada became ski conscious.Clubs sprung up as though by magic.One Ottawa club today claims the largest membership of any ski club in the world.Certain it is that between two clubs in Ottawa there is a joint active membership of more than ten thousand people.Fifty miles of ski trails, with lodges scattered here and there along the trails which wind through the Gatineau Hills, within easy hiking distance of the Federal Parliament Buildings, entice the ski enthusiasts to spend their week-ends in the open air.It is not unusual for ten thousand young and old people to start from Ottawa for their week-end sport in the adjacent hills, The other sports of skating and tobogganing thrive; numerous rinks, open-air and closed, maintained by the city and by skating and hockey clubs, - testify to the continued interest, while toboggan slides rearing themselves here and there in city parks, are well patronized.But skiing has caught the popular favor and shows every sign of growing in favor.Ottawa, well favored with its hilly terrain within easy reach and with splendid ski-ing grounds within a few minutes\u2019 distance of the centre of the city, may be regarded as the home of ski-ing in Eastern Canada, but of late years Montreal has seriously threat- a ened its sister city in the number of ~ ski enthusiasts.Within the City of Montreal lies Mount Royal park, a The Big Hill at Shawbridge, always popular with Montreal skiers\u2014Canadian National Railways photograph.natural playground with splendid slopes for winter sports, and it is not Charcot Ranked Among .unusual thing to find from five to ten \u2018\u201cPioneers of Medicine\u201d thousand people enjoying themselves with ski and toboggan on those slopes on a fine Saturday or Sunday.In addition to these, several thousand more young people are out in the Laurentian Mountains, a few hours\u2019 train ride from the city, where again there is everything in the way of slopes and snow conditions to lure the enthusiast, To accommodate the large numbers who spend their week-end in these hills, it has been found necessary in recent years to operate ski specials, coach trains which carry the skiers with their equipment from Montreal to the towns and villages along the rallway line which winds through the Laurentian Valleys.Here small hotels and boarding houses cater to the visitors who are carried out in hundreds and thousands by the Canadian National Railways during the weekends when conditions are favorable.Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto and Quebec all have their ski clubs, organizations which foster not only the thrilling sport of ski jumping but which also encourage cross-country hiking and other features of the sport.Many of these clubs maintain lodges in the hills and in these the visitor is welcomed, as he is welcomed also to the well-kept trails which criss-cross through the hilly areas.Winter sports weeks and winter carnivals, with their attendant excitement of dog derbies and other attractions, may be few and far between this winter, but in all the cities of Eastern Canada there will be no lack of interest in winter sports, and the visitor who chooses any week from January to March in which to visit the Dominion will find plenty of win- \u2018ter sports to thrill him, either as \u201cThe glamor surrounding Charcot in his lifetime obscured the true avlue of his work and of the man himself .It is one of life's little ironies that it was his faulty work which, at the time, brought him world-wide {fame and patients from every class of society, whereas his enduring, pioneer work was of such a highly technical character that none but specialists in his own field could appreciate its value.\u201d So writes Dr.Claude Lilling- ston in one of his word portraits of \u201cPioneers of Medicine\u201d in Eygeia Magazine.In his identification of a large group of nervous ailments with definite changes in the brain and spinal cord, Charcot attained scholarly achievement which assured him a permanent place in the ranks of great pioneers of medicine.In the Salpetriere.a French hospital, Charcot was tossed more or less by chance to care for the insane, the epileptic and the subjects of hysteria.Such an ill-assorted crowd! Charcot had to forge new weapons, evolve new principles and new tests in an effort to do justice to his patients.Democratic in principles, Charcot, on one occasion when a princess demanded preferential treatment, exclaimed: \u201cThis stranger does not seem to know that we have taken the bastille.\u201d Sensitive Organs Our sense organs are responsive to almost incredibly minute

Find Protection in Sensation of Fear Fear is the agency that prevents blind people from running into objects in their path, according to a bulletin of the Better Vision institute, The researches of Dr.Valdi- mir Dolansky, a blind Polish scientist.published in the quarterly printed for the blind in braille, prove that a sensation akin to fear affects the thousands of hair follicles which cover the face and body, says the bulletin, and causes the feeling of tingling that a blind person has when he approaches an object unexpectedly.This reflex only occurs when the blind person is not consciously aware that he is in danger.Thg contracting of the hair follicles is something like the bristling of a cat attacked by a dog, or of a horse which has smelled a wolf.\u201cThese who still have the use of their eyes are without this sixth sense,\u201d continues the bulletin.\u201cFour out of ten of them do not even have the common sense to know that their eyes themselves need assistance.\u201d Lilliputian City A suburb of Berlin consists of a miniature city for miniature people.It is a town built and inhabited by Liliputians.Everything is on a small scale, \u201csmall

second time within a week the new Roman Catholic Church at Noranda.Que., was, on Friday, December 29, filled by a more than capacity congregation, the occasion being the funeral of Alfred Saumier, a member of the Noranda Town Council, who had given his time and strength to the supervision of the building of the new church, a project in which he was most keenly interested.The interior of the church was draped in black and the impressive service inspired all present with the sadness of the loss that had been sustained by the family, Rev.Father Arsenault, the parish and the community at large in the passing of this active and keen-spirited public man.Besides being a member of the Town Council, the deceased gentleman was a trustee of the church, an + active member of the Knights of Columbus and of the Noranda Kiwanis Club, also president of the Conservative Association.Following the recital of prayers at the home by Rev.Father Pelletier the body was taken into the church, where it was received by a congregation representative of all classes and activities in the community.The funeral service was sung by Rev.Father Arsenault, with Rev.Father Quenneville, of Kirkland Lake, as deacon, and Rev.Father Cotes, chaplain of the hospital, as sub-dea- con.The choir of the church was assisted by members of the Rouyn Roman Catholic Church choir.After the service, the funeral cortege, with groups representing the Knights of Columbus, the Kiwanis Club, the Town Council and members of the Noranda fire brigade in uniform, as escort, passed from the church through the towns of Noran- da and Rouyn to the old hospital.Mr.Saumier was born 53 years ago at St.Anicet in the County of Hun- tingdon \u2014 (Northern News).Finds Partridge Does Little Harm to Crops The Hungarian, or European gray, partridge in the United States is not particularly harmful to crops, studies of 80 birds by the biological survey, United States Department of Agriculture, indicate.In the fall and winter these birds feed largely on green leaves, grains of wheat, corn, oats, barley, and seeds of ragwood, foxtail grass, and bindweed.The cultivated grains seem to be picked up mostly in stubble fields, and the investigators believe this indicates no injury to growing crops.Contents of the crops and gizzards of the birds examined showed that animal food made up 6 per cent of their food.The young birds, in particular, displayed a lking for grasshoppers, beetles, and other injurious insects.This partridge has been Introduced into numerous North American lo- calitles and has become well established in some of them, particularly in southwestern Canada, Washington state, southwestern Wisconsin, southwestern Michigan, and northwestern Ohio.As it is a comparatively new bird in this country its habits are interesting to sportsmen, ornithologists, and farmers.Office Boy: \u201cPlease, sir, can I have the afternoon off?My grandmother is dead.\u201d Employer: \u201cWhy, this is the third been

and merchandising prepared for the merchants Cu of the Chateauguay Valley with the co-opera- tion of the Huntingdon Gleaner.The Advertising of Furnitare Here again, we face a situation very much like that in connection with Hardware lines in that owing to the fact that a piece of furniture, a carpet, a rug, beds and bedding, are not purchased for a household except at wide intervals; they do not quickly wear out and the margin of profit for the manufacturer does not enable him to advertise continuously in papers of the type carrying the advertising of the local merchant, his distributor.He therefore to a considerable measure must confine his advertising in these papers to a short run of seasonable copy with an overriding covering in magazines and special display material for the dealer.This then makes it imperative on the part of the dealer that he do very aggressive advertising on his account and that he keep his ear to the ground to know just what is happening inside the houses In his district.The short lease habit and frequent changing of residence of city dwellers, is a boon to the furniture merchant in those cities, as furniture is wrecked and ruined with every move and do not fit the new rooms; carpets, linoleums and oil-cloths are the wrong shape or size and require to be cut.This is not the case in such territory as you have in this district where moves are infrequent and furniture, bought for a particular room or position, occupies the same place except for a resetting at the semi-annual house-cleaning.Carpets and floor coverings bought to fit a room, have a long life in that location, so that the merchant in the smaller districts must needs call other aids to his assistance if he is to keep things moving.His store must be attractive with good windows, and ample space inside the store so that individual pieces of furniture will show up well; he must get people into the shop, encourage them to walk around, following up interest as it is awakened, and preach the doctrine of better furniture and new household setting.It is worth a good deal to him to get a few pleces of new furniture into a home that has been established for a great many years, as the new fumiture brightens up the particular room in which it is placed and makes the other look as bad as an old pair of shoes with a new suit.A merchant with a good memory and a close acquaintance with his customers, and better still, a set of books that shows the details of sales made years ago, is in a position to cash in on past history.The Manufacturer today gives to you goods that have very excellent talking points and supports them with a considerable amount of publicity.We go into these in detail as follows: DINING ROOM FURNITURE-\u2014Probably the best known fumiture line, and certainly the first manufacturer to place advertising in the forefront of his sales force, is Gibbard of Napanee.We then have such names as MoLagan, Malcolm, and Beach.LIVING ROOM FURNITURE\u2014Chesterfields, etc.The outstanding firms in this line are Snyder, with their S8ani-Bullt Moth Proof line, and Kroehler, who have become so well identified with Canada that most people know them as a Canadian firm.CEDAR CHESTS\u2014Instead of a shelf in a linen closet, housing ° the gathered treasure of the future bride, manufacturers have catered to the future house-wife by

how a Soviet factory is run; what the schools are like and the school children; how horse-rac- ing is conducted when the State owns all the race horses; what may a citizen own there; what do artists paint and how.These and many other questions are answered in simple, objective and factual fushion ju a brilliant series of sketches, The author, a master of his craft, is neither for nor against Communism.It is doubtful if during the past sixteen years any Canadian newspapermal has had a more wide, varied and THE HUNTINGDON so that his economic foundation is safe so that he may be able to work well.But he must not loaf.They put most of their money in savings bank and get 8% for it.They may buy pictures, furniture and books, They may go to the theatre or to the Caucasus or the Crimea on vacation.When one becomes a people's artist he is given 200 or 300 roubles per month for his lifetime in addition to his pay.There is a shortage of artists so all must produce as much as possible.If a house or a share in a house was earned it may be sold but with- cut a profit.A man may leave property to his wife, children and direct 1elgtions but not to outsiders.If left to outsiders the Government takes it, Inheritance tax commences small, on 10000 roubles, for example, but mounts as it approaches 50,000 rou- ).¢s.Above that amount is taxed 80 ser cent.Doctors and writers who arn large sums pay one to two thou- wnd roubles a year income tax, There are comfortable rest homes ind hotels where the workers have heir holidays with pay.\u201cTrade unions have their own par- Licular rest homes, In addition, there ire houses set apart for government tough series of feature assignments than Mr.Griffin who while a keen observer of facts is also able to coning of the story as a whole.We have before us a human mov- ama.He reminds us that \u201call the cannot give the full story of this incredible ant-heap, so dramatically upheaved, He did not look for bugu- boos or horrors and only touched on the fringe of the peasant problem\u2019 for it is essentially politics and economics and too involved to tackle in this news-reel fashion.He visited a Moscow school and was to interview twenty pupils from 9 to 13.Schoo! was over but instead of going home they stood in a semicircle and plied the author with questions, most of which are recorded and all of which are an indication of the mentality of Soviet youngsters, \u201cA lovely little girl exclaimed.without hesitation or shyness, with the same direct gravity as the boys.\u201cwhat did I think of the system I had found in this school?\u201d 1 had almost to pinch myself to persuade myself that she was very little older than my own Mary whose mind is still occupied with dolls and dreams.Then a boy asked if they could send a greeting to the workers of Canada and to the children of the workers.The author sald he would be glad to send such a message.They said they would \"formulate\" a resolution and after a discussion it read: We, school children and young Pioneers of the city of Moscow.school number 25, send a hearty greeting to all the workers of Canada and the children who live under a capitalist system.\" There is much talk \u2018but not about bridge.baseball or clothes) about life.politics, work and effort.' This is a very serious place.You seldom hear laughter, though life is not sad so much as stern, but you always hear talk.which is forced on everyone by the system and the struggle.I doubt if a single individual out of the 160,000- 000 has an easy time: certainly no one can hope to avoid his or her burden of the present life.The subject is Russia, the Soviet Union, this Communist society.always.\u201d He believes that marriage and the family have become, from our point of view, casual institutions or that the home and its implications are gone.The forced overcrowding in Moscow with 3,000,000 living in a city which formerly housed 1,000.000 has created conditions which will be remedied as new buildings rapidly arise.In his opinion \"Humanity here is unchanged and essential morality is as high if not higher than our own.What we have known as jazz is entirely lacking.Children may be seen everywhere, happy and healthy looking.And their parents are not separating with any more casualness than American parents do.Constant inquiry from Russians I have met has yet to find a divorced person.Usually, the answer reveals one marriage lasting years.\u201d Marriage and divorce have been made easy but the State has checks that discourage trivial alliances and light partings.There are warnings against venereal disease and urgings to physical examination by doctors before marriage.Ten rulers of intimate hygiene are laid down as a guide to wedded health and happiness, It is impossible to have bigamy because marriage is registered on the documents and it is impossible to marry without the documents, At a worker's funeral the author and his interpreter (who was even more bourgeois in appearance) stood in a crowd of workers were made to feel welcome \u201cwith that courtesy, that simple charm of these Russians who chatted, and read, as they stood, pamphlets and papers.\u201d On his visit to the race track he \u201ctried to behave as Comrade Seagram or Tovarish Dyment would have done, measuring the merits of each sleek and spirited animal I had a fine time, forgetting everything but the horses.Nothing but courtesy, as always, here.Handshaking all round, much raising of hats, and I left feeling lke Lord Bessborough departing from the Woodbine.You must be on time at the theatre and must check all exterior apparel and to do otherwise is considered an insult to the actors.He was told the new regime is developing a sense of humor and a perspective considerably broader than in the days when it was so necessary to squelch everything that savored of any friendliness, or even of tolerance for any form of society but the new one.He saw Semenova the great danseuse (only twenty-three and greater than Pavlowa) who was paid 800 roubles a month and who next year would receive 10000 roubles per month He described the building Cooperatively.owned by 150 artists.It cost one million roubles of which the artists paid one-tenth, the rest being Joaned by the Government and to be repaid in sixty years, For the first three years no interest was charged and after that one per cent.AXR, the organization of artists picked those who came to this house.Those who leave get back the amount they invest.An artist may bargain for a masterpiece, Brotsky received 20,000 roubles for a painting\u2014f{rom the Government.It was a picture of the Commintern, showing Lenin speaking.If there are reprints the artist receives royalties.Brotsky gave 500.000 roubles to aviation defence.There is no limit to the earnings of an artist.All in the cooperative house jumping at them as they pass by.| are guaranteed 400 roubles per month vey the feeling, the thrill.the meun- ing picture, a cross-section panor-' books about Russia added together officials and employees, Right on the water front is a fine hotel exclusive- \"y for officials of the Central Execu- | Live Committee, And along the shore, \"about half-way between Yalta and | Sevastopol is a secluded resort for very high officials to which men like i Stalin come.\u201d : No one may carry on who is active- l'y against the power that rules.The author heard of a hotel manager who was sent to jail because the service he gave was So poor that tourists were disgusted.The author believes \u201cthe jail as we know it will some day cease to exist in the US.S.R.if one may judge from an isolator or correction colony which I visited in Moscow, one of five, a model for the system to be established all over.\u201d Prisoners do street cleaning, road building, work in a factory or on a collective farm where he will earn wages while expiating his offence.He wrote: \u201cYour Communist here, instead of being a radical wriggler at the bottom of the heap, is a conservative ruler at the top; I mean the big-time Communist, the man who is an official of some degree.He is usually educated since Communism calls for almost ceaseless education, even though it be along lines which we may think heinous; {requently cultured often charming, assured, a student to a degree that would put some (most) of our privileged classes to shame.\u201d He found that lawyer's wings have been clipped.He remains as a consultant, pleader, prosecutor but his role as an interventionist in the working out of justice has been reduced.There are no juries, In 1926 illiteracy was as high as 45 per cent whereas now it is between 10 and 15 per cent.The number of doctors has doubled in the last eight years.But at least 17.000 specialists and 160.000 general practitioners are required in the republic in 1932.The goal set is a dce- tor to every 1000 persons by 1937 that is 500.000 practising physicians \u201cEducation in the Soviet Union may be likened to a tidal wave sweeping over a land parched by Centuries of drought.\u201d He found \u201ca crying, insatiable demand for leaders and thinkers, for executives, directors.managers, engineers and technicians.No matter where you look there is opportunity for the new youth in terms of position, importance and achievement.State farms, collective farms.cooperative organizations, all have their demand for men and women of authority and control.In 1931 the Soviet union issued 50.- 000 titles of books compared with a total issue of 49.000 for Great Britain, Germany and the U.S.À.combined.The author evidently has an eye for children and found that they look well and as sturdy and fit as the general run of Canadian children \u201cpossible sturdier since these Russians seem stout little tikes.I have never noticed bowed legs or any other sign of rickets,\u201d Children are taught a frank knowledge of scx.In the seventh grade the children hear lectures on human biology.In the higher schools marriage is common since wages are being paid and it is possible for the scholars to marry without economic handicap.His account of the new industrial cities is fascinating.He wrote\u2018 Soviet Russia is out to become a new, a greater America.And to me.unskilled economist though I be, it seems to be on the way.\u201d There is much about wheat growing and farming generally, On a river boat as a first-class dining-room, though few afforded the expense of a meal there, eating their own food brought with them in their own rooms; and a kind of lounge.In contrast to their upper deck elegance, one had, a mere deck below, beneath their feet, this unbelievable confusion of peasants travelling third and fourth class in a sleasy.mass, .How intolerable! How indecent! The drabness the dirt, the poverty, tha smells\u2014all seemed so offensive.So these, one thought, are from those masses of the peasants, constituting over three-fourths of the 160,000,000 who have to be raised by the Soviets.So that is the task of Communism.One tried to think of the raising in terms, not of economics, or of politics, but in terms of sanitation and hygiene.\u201d \u201cFrom our deck the first-class passengers leaned over the railing looking down, Some of the men government officials were in white duck.Red army officers were in natty uniforms.Some of the women, simply enough clad were trig and cool.So, thesc were the Soviet classes.And those people below, waking for some squalid perch in the lower depths of the boat, were the Soviet massos.Yet the picture one brings away from Russia of the peasants generally, after leaving the Volga and seeing them on a considerable railroad swing-around, is of sodden people in masses who, socially, seem little higher than the animals.This is not new to Russia.This squalor of the peasant this discomfort of travel, dates from the old days.The Soviet is not to blame for it.Rather is the Soviet seeking to change it, no doubt.\" He saw a man with a stop watch talking with a letter carrier who was buying a few cherries.The official was noting, on a large sheet of paper everything the carrier did on his route and the time taken, The man was not suspected of loitering.The idea was merely to set a norm for lccal letter carrying.\u201cThe norm, the tempo.the plan\u2014always the plan!\u201d The last chapter is entitled \u201cUn- der-Dogs on Top\u201d and the closing paragraph reads: \u201cIt all seemed to me so far removed from overthrow and blood, from the fear and hatred of so many in my own world for everything Soviet; and yet this quiet pair, with their blackboard and their tiny bed in a church cubicle, were part of the vast machine that wus remarking Russia and threatening to change social and economic history.Their lives had been touched indelibly quickened if you will, by the revolution.So, to a greater or less degree, had the lives of 160,000,000 people of the US.S.R.and of countless millions yet to be born.Who can ever hope to measure the effect of what is taking place in Soviet Russia to-day?\u201d .The impression is left that one is reading the sheer truth and that the author is a balanced, impartia! observer.Hinchinbrooke Council Met on Tuesday.the 3rd inst.with the members all present.Mayor Anderson presiding.* Moved by Coun.Ross, seconded by Councillor Crutchfield that

forms of playing cards had no queen in them.Archeologists explain this pointing out that the face cards a thousand years ago represented the court, and that women were then not half as important in court as the jester, or joker, says a writer in the New York Times.For hundreds of years women were not considered of sufficient importance to be included in the card games played by the men.For many centuries cards were exclusively a man's game \u2014women were too busy with their household duties to play cards.Now, of the millions of bridge players in the United States, it is estimated that more than half are women.Thus is the history of the progress of womanhood portrayed in playing cards.Playing cards have had many shapes and forms during the centuries, Not until comparatively recent times have the various denominations of the cards been represented on them by numbers.The values of the cards were represented usually by trees or vines with two up to ten leaves, acorns or flowers.Instead of counting the spots, the players counted the leaves or flowers.Riverfield Silver Wedding.\u2014 A very pleasurable surprise awaited Mr.and Mrs.John Gruer on their return from a visit on Monday night.Relatives and friends had prepared a bountiful supper of which about 35 partook.The table which was prettily decorated in silver, was graced by a three tier wedding cake.This was served by the groomsman and bridesmaid of 25 years ago, Mr.Sam Red- dick, brother of the bride, and Mrs.James McFarlane, sister of the groom.An address was read by Mr.Laurie Gruer and a gift of money presented by Mr.George Robb.Both Mr.and Mrs.Gruer were taken unawares by all that was done and provided, yet very suitably responded.Cards were played and music and singing enjoyed until a late hour.Before dispersing the bride and groom were the recipients of all the good wishes possible for the next 25 years and the company sang \u201cFor They Are Jolly Good Fellows\u201d and \u201cAuld Lang Syne.\u201d The following is the address: Dear Friends, We have gathered here tonight to personally extend you our heartiest congratulations on reaching the twen- ty-fifth anniversary of your wedding, and we ask you to accept this gift in the spirit in which it is given.We hope you may both be spared to enjoy many more happy years of married life, and that we may all meet to celebrate your golden wedding.Guests from a distance were Mrs.Wm.Gruer.the groom's mother, and Miss Gertrude Gruer, sister and Miss Josephine Gruer, nicce, all of Montreal.Mrs.Win.Reddick, in spite of her many years, was also a guest at her daughter's wedding anniversary.Dr.Scott Pearson of the Presbyter- jan College, conducted worship on Sunday.The Misses Reta and Olive Robertson spent Thursday in St.Lambert and

seething.stinking kind of nether world\u201d which made him think of the Black Hole of Calcutta, Men, women and children lay about, around or on top of their packages and bundles.He added: \u2018No one dares leave his or her poor goods unguarded.For to leave anything for a moment in Russia means to have it stolen.On the trains, in the hotel, if one is on a low floor, it is not possible ever to open a window, no matter how sweltering the heat, least something be snatched, On a boat one dare not leave the cabin without closing the window tight and locking the door.On a train one may occupy a compartment with three other people and yet find it impossible to get fresh air.At night door and window will be kept shut.It is dangerous, I am told, to open the window, even half a foot at the top.There are thieves who, with a hook and line.can snatch your pants in a twinkling.\u201d He found the trains \u2018almost unbearable\u201d\u2014ex- cept on train like the Moscow\u2014 Kharkov which

suddenly today at his home in Northampton, Mass.He was 40 years old on July 4, 1932.Stricken with a heart attack as he -was preparing to shave in a dressing t of his Northampton home, \u201cThe ches,\u201d he died alone.A few minutes later Mrs.Coolidge, returning from a shopping tour, found his body lying upon the floor.There was apparently no warning and he died without suffering.His face was calm and bore no sign of pain.A physician, Dr.E.W.Brown, was summoned immediately but Mr.Coolidge was dead.Dr.Brown said he apparently had died 15 minutes before.Mrs.Coolidge, though stunned by the shock, bore up bravely and joined her son, John, in arranging plans for the funeral.Mr.Coolidge became president on the death of President Harding, was once re-elected to that honoured post and then retired in favor of Herbert Hoover in the 1928 elections.° .The Week-end N Week-end electioneering in the Irish 0 { Free State left numerous persons nursing cuts and bruises as meetings were accompanied by fights.Police of Dublin, reinforced by 700 members of the Army Comrades Association, « battled with Republican partisans who sought to break up a meeting addressed by National party leaders in- _4ding former President Willlam T.\u201cFosgrave, General Richard Mulcahy and Mrs.Collins O'Driscoll, sister of the late Michael Collins.Three hundred police fought hand in hand with the Army Comrades to protect speakers and, despite their efforts, Republican sympathizers tore down loud speakers and hurled stones at the platform.General Mulcahy was howled down and had to leave the platform.Revolver shots were fired but no one appeared to have been hit.Despite the violence campaigners .managed to deliver a flood of oratory at open air demonstrations accompanied by torchlight processions.All party conventions were lively.The White Army of the National Party, as the Army Comrades Association is called, had numerous resolute-looking young men gathered in groups wherever there appeared likelihood of trouble \u2018rom the Republicans.Before Mr.Cosgrave appeared to address a meeting last night in his own constituency at Cork, a body of the comrades marched in military forma- a tion to the scene and were posted by \"their leaders at strategic points among the crowd.Entrance to every side street was held by six-foot policemen.Police helmets could be seen rising about the sea of heads wherever an Su Hy element gathered.Franklin Rural The shareholders of Geraldine Creamery held their annual meeting © Saturday evening, with a very good attendance.The business of the past year was reviewed, no arrangements being made for the coming season.Mrs.Alfred Sutton spent a couple of days recently at the home of her son, Mr.and Mrs.Roderick Sutton.Mrs.C.B.Edwards is at

white United Church across the street from the Coolidge family homestead and conducted memorial services\u2014a funeral service, simple and impressive, like that held in the Jonathan Edwards Congregational Church in Northampton, Mass, his home city, where he died Thursday.It was, in ritual, the same service as that at which a nation mourned his passing.In the twilight of a gray, wintry afternoon the former President returned to the hamlet among the Vermont hills where he was born 60 years ago, to find a last resting place.The friends and neighbors of other days rendered silent homage as his body was carried to the grave.Few had found it possible to attend the funeral service earlier in the day in Northampton.+ .Fire broke out on the French trans- Atlantic liner France Sunday morning while she was lying at her dock at Havre, France.Only the vigilance of night watchmen prevented a serious blaze.It is believed the fire was caused by short circuit in the first class cabins.The France had been laid up for several months and only watchmen were on board.Both the ship's fire fighting force and apparatus from Havre were summoned.They succeeded in extinguishing the blaze after two hours\u2019 work.The damage was slight, according to the Compagnie Generale Trans-Atlanti- que, owners of the France.Sunday's fire, following closely the disaster to the liner L'Atlantique, has redoubled the demand for the fullest possible inquiry into the construction of French ships.It is urged especially that such details be studied as the protection of electrical installations, the type of vamish and the use of wood from the French colonies.An examination of the hulk of the L'Atlantique at Cherbourg was begun by a committee of experts.Access to the burned ship was granted to a few newspapermen, although the fire had not been completely extinguished.All who inspected the liner report that the ruin above decks is complete, nothing being left of her elaborate furnishings.Her interior is said to be as mass of twisted and broken iron, good only as scrap.Only her engine rooms seem to have escaped destruction.It is regarded as remarkable that her oil tanks did not explode.ORMSTOWN W.C.T.U.How Liquor Control is Working in Canada Legalizing home bar drinking has given the liquor traffic a certificate of respectability with which is never was adorned before in Canada, and.contrary to all promises and predictions of the Government enacting the policy of Liquor Control sale, never did illegal sale of intoxicating beverages thrive as it thrives today.There are stills all over the country, and one of the common press announcements is, \u201cthe largest still ever found in this section.\u201d This practically tells the story that other stills had not only been found, but found frequently.On the authority of the Rev.À.E.Runnells, pastor of Central United Church, Windsor.Ont.\u201cthere are whole streets in Windsor where you can go from house to house for liquor.\u201d And he adds.\u201cI want to assure you that not all the patrons of the Windsor drinking houses are from Detroit.There are one thousand cases where liquor is being dispensed in private homes.I have seen most flagrant violations of the law from the windows of my office.Government Control is not controlling.\u201d Another exact picture of existing conditions was headed.\u201cReeve, Constable Are Under Arrest)\u2019 It appears that these two officials stole a car when both were under the influence of drink and proceeded to a neighboring town, where, after a hot chase by a constable, and the wrecking of the car, they were arrested, one being charged with reckless driving and the other with stealing an automobile.Last March it was interesting to read concerning a hearing in Ottawa as to methods of liquor shipments when it was discovered that a carload of beer was billed \u201clumber,\u201d and when 150 cases of beer were shipped from Montreal to Cornwall as \u201cmilk products.\u201d A press reporter, with a cultivated vocabulary, gave the following entertaining glimpse of liquor's control: \u201cWhile his companions scattered like the four winds, one celebrant at a Muncey Indian Reserve drinking party pulled the \u2018ostrich act\u2019 in a futile attempt to escape police.He was found with his head buried in a plowed field, but had forgotten about the rest of his anatomy until the raiders rooted him out.\u201d Short Story of Paper About the time of Alexander the Great, paper began to be manufactured from an Egyptian plant called papyrus, whence comes the name paper.It became 50 valuable that the export of paper from Egypt was prohibited.The Greeks and Romans did not have the secret and so they commenced to make use of skins prepared for the purpose The product of sheep-skin was called \u201cparchment\u201d and that of calves was called \u201cvellum.\u201d Finally these pieces were made up into a continuous roll and called \u201cvolumen,\u201d which is the origin of the word \u201cvolume.\u201d Julius Caesar was responsible for making writing material in the form of pages, which was more convenient than the great roll.In inscribing the papyrus the ancients made use of a plece of bamboo cut much in the shape of the pen as we knew it.Ormstown Village Council Met on Tuesday evening, members all present except

defence of the opponents, put a smashing shot to the corner of the net in the first five minutes of play.The puck was centered off, and playing more defensive hockey until Joe May relieved Gendron,

Columbia have laws which punish bv fines from $50 to $1.000 and by imprisonment of from thirty days to two years the person who is guilty of the offenses called driving \u201cwhile under the influence of intoxicants\u201d\"\u2014not for drunkenness, but for something rightly considered by well- informed people as much more dangerous.The courts at various times have interpreted this statement to mean that one is under the influence of intoxicants if one's faculties have been \u201cdisturbed, interfered with, or affected\u201d by using them.Why do wet states, such as New Jersey, Massachusetts, Maryland, Connecticut, and Rhode Island apparently enforce this traffic law just as strenuously as any dry state could possibly do?Indeed, in New Jersey, even after fine or imprisonment is imposed, the defendant who is a second time proven gullty of this offense is kept from ever again driving a car in the state.The New Jersey commission of motor vehicles says \u201cThe safe rule is to avoid drinking if you are expecting to drive a motor vehicle.\u201d The commissioner of motor vehicles for Connecticut, R.B.Stoeckel says \u201cThe really dangerous driver is the man who has had one or two drinks only, who still thinks he is in possession of his faculties, but whose driving judgment has been impaired.\u201d An automobile liability insurance company gives the warning \u201cThe only safe way is not to drive, if you have taken even the smallest quantity of intoxicating liquor, opiates or narcotics.\u2014 (From the Union Signal official organ of the U.8.National W.C.T.U.) A motorist was helping his victim, who happened to be extremely fat, to rise from the ground.\u201cCouldn't you have gone round me?\u201d he growled.\u201cSorry!\u201d said the motorist, alrily: \u201cI was not sure whether I had enough petrol.\u201d OY, Ormstown Village W.C.T,.U.Meeting.\u2014 The W.OT.U met at the home of the President Mrs W.G.McGerrigle ou Thursday afternoon, January 5th.The devotional exercises in caarge of Miss M.Black were in keeping with the New Year.A special session of praver following, having in mind the world's W.C.T.U.Day of Prayer, A special evening meting will be held in February un honor of the great leader, Frances E.Willard.The tonic for discussion was the lisidious- ness of the Government controlled liquor traffic.One question: How can 8 time of depression be avoided when one billion.one hundred and ninety- four million.seven hundred and six- ty-two thousand dollars has been spent in Canada during 10 years of liquor sale?In 1920 when prohibition was in force in the provinces, but the Dominion still manufacturing on the plausible excuse of exportation, Canada had 4 distilleries and 57 breweries with a combined capital of forty-nine million, two hundred and sixty-seven thousand dollars after 10 years of Government liquor sale.It took 28 distilleries to supply the appetite and the breweries had jumped to 86 in number, having a joint capital of one hundred and twenty-eight million, three hundred and twenty- seven thousand dollars.Who can measure the ruined homes, the heartaches the debauchery: this amount of money worse than wasted has caused.Sick visiting committee, Mrs.J.Peddie, Mrs.W.J.Roy, Mrs.M.E.Ross, Mrs.W.A.Ross.Prayer- meeting to be.held at the home of Mss.Jas.Winter, Sr.W.C.T.U.Educational Campaign.\u2014 Marking by Ormstown WCT.U.committee as follows, all contestants being from St.Paul's (United) 8S.except one, which came from Allans Corners: Senjors\u20141, Ruby McDougall; 2, Helen McDougall, Olga Nussey; 3, Kathleen McDougall, Betty: Cavers; 4.Lyman Roberts.Intermediate\u20141, Garnet McDoug- ali; 2, Wynita Hamilton; 3, Howard Reid; 4, Alexa Rember.Junior\u20141, Russe!

Retain Challenge Trophy \u2014 On Friday last, Quebec sent two rinks of their experienced curlers to meet Ormstown stalwarts in an effort to lift the Quebec Challenge Cup and to take it back to its original home.Through the unkindness of the weatherman in not providing suffi- clent frost to make ice curlable in the local rink, and through the gen- crosity of the Ormstown teams in having the game played while the Quebec teams were in Montreal for the Edinburgh Trophy play.which eliminated the necessity of them making a second trip, the locnl curlers met them in Montreal and played the game on the artificial ice at the Caledonia rink, retaining the famous Trophy by defeating them 37-23.This victory brought Ormstown totals of wins to 18 as compared with 19 wins by the Quebecers, the greatest number of wins of any club since the inception of title series.The latter Club first put up the Cup for challenge competition between all the Clubs of iron playing Canada in 1874, and last held it in 1923, has had to wait Its turn for a chance at revenge ever since, owing to the fact that there Is always a lengthy waiting list of challenging clubs, cach club must await {ts turn which Is about once In every six or seven years, Ormstown first won this cov- eled Trophy in 1899 from Royal Montreal and successfully defended through 16 games until 1903 when they lost il to Heathers of

was an excellent comedy, full of good wholesome humor, and was exceptionally well presented.While all the players knew and acted their respective parts perfectly, special mention should be mado of the leading lady, Mrs.W.R.Willson, who was almost continuously on the platform, and who seemed to be perfectly at case, in spite of the heavy part she played.During intermission the audience enjoyed mandolin selections by Mr.N.W.Recse, accompanied by Mrs Reese, solos by Mrs, Wood, aoccom- panied by Miss Wilson, and a recitation by Miss Elizabeth Sadler.Rev.Mr.Woodside acted as chairman.Should the Athelstan young people ever decide to bring another play to Ormstown, they may be assured of a hearty welcome.Mrs.A.C.Herdman and Miss Gladys Herdman of Huntingdon, spent a few days last week at the

She's a pretty one, she is, though.And you've picked a good husband, too, ma'am,\u201d the old man assured Cherry.\u201cOne of the finest! I want to congratulate both of you.Yes, sir.Indeed I do!\u201d The outer door opened and Dan turned.At his half-smothered exclamation Cherry whirled about.A dozen men and women, laughing and calling out gaily, crowded into the hotel, They swarmed about Dan and Cherry.Bill Pringle appeared to be in the lead.\u201cHere they are!\" the court house reporter cried.\u201cHere's the bride and bridegroom.Look at \u2018em blushing, folks! Who's going to be first to kiss the bride?\u201d Dan stepped out, smiling.\u201cJust a minute,\u201d he protested.\u201cSay, what is this anyhow?\" \u201cWe've come to help you celebrate,\u201d put in a small girl wearing a green hat.\u201cWe're all going out to Casey's and we're going to take you with us.For goodness sake, Dan, introduce us, can't you?\" Phillips turned to Cherry, \u2018Halfwits,\u201d he said, grinning, \u201cbut they're harmless.My confreres of the well- known News.\u201d \u201cWell, gang,\u201d he faced the newcomers, \u201cthis is certainly a sur- prise\u2014\" \u201cHow about the surprise you pulled?\u201d a bass voice called out, Others chorused, \u201cSpeech, speech!\u201d \u201cNobody wants speeches,\u201d the girl in the green hat protested.\u201cThis is supposed to be a party\u2014\" Dan raised a hand.\u201cLadies\u2019 and gentlemen,\u201d he began, \u201callow me to present the one and only Mrs, Dan- ie] Phillips, who has 50 graciously consented to bear the name and share the ancestral fortune of the house of Phillips\u2014 $9.15!\" He pulled out a trouser pocket, turning it inside.\u201cGive 'em a bow, Cherry.That's the girl!\u201d There were cheers and applause.In a few moments all of them were outside.Cherry found herself wedged into the rear seat of an automobile intended for five passengers and carrying eight.Dan was beside her and on the other side the girl in the green hat whose name was Dixie Shannon.The name sounded familiar and Cherry was sure she had seen it somewhere, She learned almost immediately that Dixie wrote motion picture reviews for the News.Dixie was a friendly soul \u201cSee a picture with me some time,\" she invited.\u201cAry day you want.I'm always at the office around 10 o'clock.You can call me there.\u201d Cherry.a trifle bewildered, agreed.All of these strangers who laughed and joked and said such odd things were Dan's friends.She was sure they were trying to be cordial but she felt timid, Some of the things they said she scarcely understood.When Dan joined in the joking it made him seem almost a stranger.A half hour's ride brought them to a large apartment house, The Caseys lived on the second floor.By elevator and staircase the crowd of 14 arrived at the door almost at the same time, Casey, so Dan informed Cherry, was telegraph editor of the News.A minute later she was being introduced to Mr.Casey himself.She lked him instantly for his gray hair and crinkly blue eyes and the way that he smiled at her.She liked Mrs.Casey.too, when she appeared a moment later.Mrs.Casey was plump and very pretty.Apparently impromptu parties at the Cas- eys were no novelty.\u201cTry to steal a march on us, were you?\u201d Casey demanded of Dan.\u201cWell, we couldn't let you get away with it.Lucky devil you are, though.Going to let me kiss the bride?\u201d He did and somehow Cherry didn't mind.An angular youth in a dark suit had seated himself ai a piano.Now he was crashing out the opening chords of the Lohengrin march.Cherry looked about for Dan and could not find him.Bill Pringle came up, grinning.\u201cWell,\u201d he asked, \u201cdid we surprise you?\" \u201cOh, you certainly did! I've never been more surprised \u2018., my life.I don't see how you managed it.\u201d \u201cEasy,\u201d Bill told her.\u201cAs soon as I got hold of Fredericks \u2018the clerk who had issued the license), I telephoned Shannon and Casey.They got the rest together and met at the office.When I knew you'd gone back to the Bismark I gave them a call Presto\u2014that's all there was to it!\u201d The young man at the piano had been persuaded to abandon Lohengrin to provide accompaniment for a quartette.The singers\u2019 voices had more to recommend them in the way of volume than in tone.The quartette attempted \u201cOh, Promise Me.\u201d but gave it up abruptly for \u201cCall Me Sweetheart,\u201d They liked this so well that they sang it twice.There were four young women in the crowd .besides Dixie Shannon.Two were the wives of reporters.A slim girl with red hair cut short and wearing a tailored tweed suit was introduced as Doris Ware.Someone told Cherry that Doris covered news assignments on an equal footing with the men and was considered one of the best feature writers in Wellington.Cherry was not sure she liked her.She thought Miss Ware rather reserved, The fourth girl was Connie Randolph from the society department, a tall, slender brunet whose black satin frock outlined her figure frankly.She had barely shaken hands with Cherry and then drifted away.Suddenly Cherry saw that rugs bad been pulled back in the next room and that couples were dancing.8he looked about again, rather anxiously, for Dan.There he was sitting in the far corner beside Connie Randolph.They seemed to be in earnest conversation.Dixie Shannon's gaze followed Cherry's.\u201cDon\u2019t mind Connie,\u201d Dixie said in an undertone.\u201cShe's the office vamp but nobody takes her seriously, Connie was missing when Louder she said, \u201cBill, will you tell Dan we want him over here.Tell him to make it pronto.\u201d The words were c but Cherry thought that assumed air Dixie was {ray with peared bearing Ë Leap Year Bride By Laura Lou Brookman Cherry.You'll be crazy about them all.Would it be too much of a favor to ask my wife if she'd have the next dance with me?\" Cherry flushed with pleasure as she arose.An orchestra half way across the continent was playing a melodic German waltz, The notes floated out sweet and clear from the radio.Dan and Cherry had never danced together before but their steps matched perfectly.Dan whispered, \u201cThe next time we pass that door slip through it.We're going to make a getaway, Mrs.Casey will help us.\u201d Five minutes later they were hurrying down a rear stairway.Another five minutes and Dan was helping Cherry into a taxicab.As the cab rolled along through the darkness Cherry thought.\u201cThis can't really be me! I can't believe so much could happen in 24 hours.\u201d Fortunate for her that she could not foresee the next 24 hours.Cherry crossed the room and gave the window shade a tug.Bright morning sunshine was a fine thing, but too much of it was as bad as none.It blinded you.She tossed her head back, shaking the tangled mass of dark hair into becoming disarry.Then she sat down in the big chair, leaned back and surveyed the room.She made an amusing picture.Pulled about her and tied securely at the waist was Dan Phillips old dressing gown.A strange purplish- red hue now, the dressing gown had once been a handsome brocade.It was many sizes too large.Cherry had rolled the sleeves back, but the shoulder seams reached almost to her elbows.Dainty lace trimmed lingerie showed where the dressing gown fell away, Her buckled pumps were tiny and narrow, her hose of the sheerest mesh.Suddenly she jumped up and went to the dressing table.A sheet of paper lay there, a few words scrawled on it in pencil, Cherry picked up the paper and read: \u201cCherry\u2014I love vou, Be ready to Lave lunch with me.I'll call some time after 12.\u2014Dan.\u201d She had read the words at least a dozen times, At first it had been a surprise to realize that never before had she seen Dan's handwriting.That was odd, and still it wasn't.There were so many things Cherry liad yet to learn about this young husband of hers.1 Her husband! The girl's smile became a dreamy sort of radiance, She caught a glimpse of herself in the t mirror and stared, fascinated.Was that what love did to you?She seemed an entirely different person than she had been yesterday.The t worn-out dressing gown caught her eye and suddenly the smile became a rippling laugh.Of course she was a different person.She was Mrs, Dan- i iel Phillips! \u201cOh, I'm so happy.\" Cherry sang aloud.\u201cI'm so happy!\" She whirled in a dashing pirouette and flung herself on the bed.i Each morning at home Cherry had started the day with fruit, hot rolls and steaming coffee.Uusually they were brought to her bedside on a tay.Sarah would be there to pouf «he coffee and ask if everything was as it should be.Sarah wouid bring a quilted satin breakfast coat and slip it about the girl's shoulders to keep her warm while she ate.Sarah, bless her! Where was she and what was she doing now?What were Cherry's mother and father thinking of the way their daughter had run off the night before?Were the servants whispering and wondering what happened?Did others outside the house know about it?For an instant the girl felt a pang of guilt.Her mother would be worrying.Crying perhaps at this very moment, Cherry loved her mother.She loved her father.too\u2014when he was not roaring out orders or frightening her.Perhaps she should write a note | to\u2014 Cherry's chin raised and set in a firm line.No indeed! If she wrote they would imagine she was asking for forgiveness.She could not do it! The dainty platinum watch on the girl's wrist reminded her it was growing late.Almost 10.30.There would be an hour and a half at least before Dan telephoned.What about breakfast?She decided not to go out for it; then almost instantly changed her mind.After all there was nothing to do until Dan called.A breath of fresh air and a brisk walk would be good for her.She discarded the dressing robe and hung it away.Dan's clothing crowded the tiny closet to overflowing.As Cherry turned she realized what a really hideous room this was.Dark, dismal paper on the walls.Worn spots on the carpet.Two of the dressing table drawers were pulled out revealing garments tossed about.Newspapers and magazines in staggering piles littered the table and one of the chairs.The furniture was not only out of date; it looked as though it had not been dusted for days.What a contrast to her rose and blue boudoir at home! Cherry considered this a moment, then shrugged.\u201cWe won't stay here long,\u201d she told herself, \u201cDan said we could move and I'll begin looking at apartments right after lunch.\u201d The beige crepe Cherry had worn the night before hung over a chair.She held it up, shaking her head.It was certainly not a costume to wear to breakfast in a restaurant.The tiny cap sleeves and becoming neckline were of lace, over which skillful French fingers had labored for long hours.Too elaborate, too distinctive in its simple, unusual manner of cutting and seaming for the street.Still there was no choice, Cherry slipped the frock over her head and snapped the fastenings.Another note for her mental memorandum; she would have to buy some clothes.With the polo coat pulled about her and the brown hat drawn down smartly set forth.Downstairs the hotel lobby, with its chandeliers still burning.looked exactly as it had the night before.A clerk she had not seen stood at the desk, Very self- consciously Cherry approached and left her room key.She went out into the sunshine.The air wes cool, bracing, but with that indefinable quality that never, never any but a day of spring can 5 t Ss night before, At the corner she stopped and bought a newspaper.want ad pages might help her to find a place for her and Dan to live.Cherry had never read a want ad, but she understood vaguely here,\u201d disappoint you honey, amuse yourself and well make The that people who had apartments to rent advertised them there, An apple-cheeked waitress in a fresh yellow uniform smiled at Cherry and presented the menu card.\u201cOrange juice, coffee and toast,\u201d the girl ordered.She spread the newspaper to its full size and glanced at the first page hastily.A heading caught her eye.\u201cMiss Dixon, Bride of Newspaper Reporter\u201d It was only a paragraph.The brief report stated that Miss Cherry Dixon daughter of Mr.and Mrs, Walter J.Dixon of Sherwood Heights, and Daniel Phillips, reporter for the Wellington News, had been married the night before by Justice of the Peace Cunningham.The paragraph listed the schools Cherry had attended, adding that she was a popular member of the younger social set.\u201d Another sentence stated that Dan was on the News editorial staff and previously had been employed by the Sentinel.Cherry was flushed and her eyes bright as she read the last words.So everyone knew! mother must have seen that paragraph.Well, they would understand now that she had meant what she said! Her father and Lost in these thoughts Cherry scarcely noticed when the waitress returned with her order.She remembered presently, drank the orange juice and coffee and nibbled at the toast.Then she paid her bill and departed.She went directly to the hotel, anxious to hear from Dan.It seemed a long while before the telephone rang and his voice came over the wire.\u201cHello.That you, Cherry?\u201d \u201cYes, Dan.I've been waiting for ou.\u201d \u201cHow are you, baby?Sorry I could not give you a ring earlier, but I've been chasing all over town.Listen.dear, we'll have to call off that lunch date.\u201d \u201cOh, Dan.\u201d \u201cIt's bum luck, but there's no way out of it.I'm parked out here at the airport and there's no telling when we'll get away.Those two girl flyers were due half an hour ago and we'll have to wait till they land or word comes they're down.It wasn't supposed to be my Groves is tied up at City Hall.\u201d assignment, but \u201cBut can't you\u2014?\" \u201cI can't do anything but stay Dan assured her.\u201cI hate to but I can't elp myself.Try to find some way to up or it with a bang-up dinner party onight, IS that all right?\u201d Reluctantly she told him it was.Phillips said something that brought a quick smile to the girl's face and hen the conversation was over.Well\u2014not only a long morning to herself, but the afternoon as well! The newspaper in which she had ntended to search for apartment addresses lay on the table, but suddenly Cherry's interest had waned.She made up her mind to go shopping instead.There was less than $10 n her purse, but all her life Cherry had made purchases on charge accounts.Besides she simply had to have a dress, If she went to Maison Madelaine she knew they would be glad to open an account for her.She picked up purse and gloves and started for the door.On the way down in the elevator car Cherry revised her plans.She remembered Maison Madelaine was expensive, No, she would go to Stanley's, the big department store.Miss Lacey in he French room was always so pleasant and helpful.Miss Lacey was equal to the emergency.She greeted Cherry effusively.Yes, she had seen the announcement of the marriage in the newspaper and thought it was romantic! An elopement, of course, And what could she how the little bride today?Cherry had set out intending to be economical.A practical woollen day dress was what she wanted.Some- hing becoming of course but not fussy.Miss Lacey.beaming whisked away to return with a frock of glowing spring green over her arm.Fea- ; come.\u201d ther-welght to touch.Exactly right in size.The price was $65.Miss Ldcey's brow lifted slightly.She said quickly that of course she had less expensive models, If Mrs.Phillips was interested in picking up a really remarkable bargain there was a blue novelty mixture\u2014\" When Cherry departed almost an hour later not only the blue novelty mixture but a parinted silk frock and half a dozen dainty garments of flesh silk were being packed into a box to be delivered to the Bismark.The bill totaled $93.70.She stopped at a drug store to buy perfumed soap and a jar of the face cream she always used at home.Four dollars and fifty cents on the cashier's check.Back in the hotel Cherry undressed, bathed and hurriedly made herself ready for dinner.It was after five when she heard a quick rap at the door.Cherry rushed forward, beaming.But it was not Dan Phillips at the other side of the door.CHAPTER XI Cherry sald \u201cOh\u2014!\" and then her voice dropped in disappointment.A bell boy in blue uniform stood at the door.He held a large pasteboard box bearing in heavy lettering her name, \u201cThe Stanley Company.\u201d \u201cPackage for you, Mrs.Phillips.\u201d Cherry told him to put the box down and rummaged in her purse for & coin The door clicked on the youth's retreating back.There were her purchases of the afternoon.Cherry considered the package doubtfully.Ninety-three dollars and seventy cents spent for a few simple garments.Suddenly she wished she had not gone shopping.It seemed a huge sum\u2014$93/70, Why, it was almost $100.In the store she had thought only that the dresses were becoming that she wanted Dan to see how well she looked in them.Now she would have to tell him how much they had cost.She wished she had bought something for Dan instead of for herself.Here it was, the first day of her marriage, and she had spent almost the whole time buying two dresses, The dresses should have been taken out and hung away 50 they would not be w+inkled but, in her dissatisfaction, Cherry carried the box unopened to the clothes closet and pushed it back in the shadows.Then she straightened with a sigh and returned to the window to wait for Dan.She thought she might see him coming down the street but half an hour later when his key turned in the lock the sound startled her.\u201cOh, Dan\u2014I'm so glad youve She flew into his a~ms.Dan's arms, so strong, so comforting.The touch of his cheek against her temple.Swift reassuring kisses.Suddenly the dreary, old-fashioned room might have been a palace.It might have been a moon-drenched tropical garden or a silvery ship deck.Cherry knew only that where Dan was she must be and there she would be happy.Money.beautiful surroundings.pretty clothes, what did any of these matter?\u2014 She looked up at him through shining, tear-spangded lashes.ter sons, darling! What's the mat- ™ \u201d - \u201cIt's\u2014it's because I'm so happy, Dan!\" He crushed hes close again in a quick embrace, laughing.\u201cIs that the way you show it when you're happy \u2014pgetting your eyes all red with tears?Someone will be saying Dan Phillips beats that beautiful young wife of his or locks her yp without anything to eat.\u201d \u201cSay it again, dear!\" \u201cSay what?\u201d i love to hear you call me your Ww A .Li .° Terder words, softly whispered.Prec.,us, precious moments.They stole past swiftly until the orange glow faded above the ragged city skyline and dusk settled in the streets, \u201cWas it a long day, Cherry?Were you lonesome?\" \u201cIt doesn't matter now.Everything is all right so long as youre here again.\u201d \u201cWhat did you do this afternoon?\u201d There it was! A cold hand seemed to settle over the girl's heart.She didn't want to remember the way she had spent the afternoon.Cherry evaded, \u201cOh, I went out for a while and walked around.Then I came back to the hotel and read the paper and waited.I spent a lot of time getting ready for dinner\u2014\u201d \u201cAh, dinner! Reminds me I have a date with a certain young woman.If I keep her walting much longer she'll probably swoon at my feet.Get your bonnet, Cherry.I'll just remove the surface grime from this battered old face and be ready in two seconds!\u201d As they went through the door a little later Phillips remarked casually \u201cBy the way, honey, I thought we'd go to the Wellington tonight\u2014 but, well the fact is I intended to get a check cashed and then forgot.Would you mind if we drop in at a little place I know over on Locust street?Nothing very fancy, but the food's ok.\u201d She assured him she did not mind.Out on the street Cherry raised her head proudly.She wished the whole world could see her walking beside this tall young man who loved her and was so good to her.She wished above all else that her father and mother might see their daughter at that moment.Perhaps Dan read her thoughts.He took her arm as they crossed a street and the pressure of his fingers was more than solicitude.He said in a low voice: \u201cNot sorry about\u2014anything, you, kid?\u201d \"I'm never going to be sorry about anything again, Dan.Not ever?\u2019 \u201cNeither am I!\u201d Like happy children they laughed aloud.The astounding thing was that each of them really believed it, The \u201clittle place over on Locust street\u201d proved to be exactly as Dan had described it.It was not fancy in the least.The sign on the window read \u201cSchroeder's Restaurant.\u201d Charlie Schroeder, the proprietor, are Children\u2019s COLDSs Mothers testify that BABY'S OWN TABLETS are invaluable for

manner was almost that of a host.He bowed and smiled at Cherry when Dan introduced her, then hastened to greet some newcomers.The restaurant was about half- filled.There seemed to be more men than women at the tables.The furniture was all of dark brown wood and there was a dark brown wainscoting half way up the walls, Ceiling lights cast 2a mellow glow over the room that had seemed dark when Cherry entered.As her eyes became accustomed to the dim light she found it restful.The tables had crisp white covers and no flowers.Waiters, carrying heavily laden trays, set down dishes that were thick amd generous-sized.Dan glanced up from the menu card.\u201cSee anything you like?\u201d he asked.\u201cYes, lots of things.I'l have the roast lamb and broccoli\u2014\" Dan gave the orders, then leaned back comfortably.\u201cNow then.\u201d he said, \u201cI guess we'll eat.To tell the truth I'm almost famished.Only had a sandwich at noon.That restaurant out at the airport doesn't go in for
