extremes in their subject matter.One told of his daily events, the other of his soul searchings.In Pepys we have a narrative, quaint and, to us moderns, often amusing; in Amiel we observe a kind of spiritual phlepoto- my, à blood-letting of a moralistic vein not always pleasing.But the average diary is quite innoxious in every way, and in consequence not 30 GUILTY 0 MANSLAUGHTER Holbert E.Howard

Legislature Committee Approval The city of Valieyfleld has obtained the right to Introduce in its charter the principle of secret balloting when referendums are held on mun)- cipal by-laws.This permission was given from the private bills committee In session at Quebec on Tucsday morning.Whether it may be applied with success appeared doubtful to many members of the committee, but alter explanations had been given for the council, the bill was adopted with an amendment, which determines the hours during which the vote must be taken.\u2018The new voting system will see the adoption of a series of ballot papers, one for the name of the proprietor, the others for the valuation of his properties.The valuation of the property will be registered in as many papers as there are hundreds of dollars in property, which means that when a property 18 valuated at $1,000 the voter will have to sign 10 ballot papers, and 80 on.\u2019 A curious incident happened when Premier Taschereau asked Ludger Codebecq, attorney for Valleyfield, how the ballot would be taken in the case of companies.The latter said that the charter of Valleyfield precluded the companies from taking part in such referendums.Maurice Duplessis and Premier Taschereau then claimed that by an amendment to the Cities\u2019 and Towns' Act, adopted last year, which took precedence over any particular charter, companies have been admitted to vote.Mr.Codebecqy claimed that this could not apply to a charter which was revised last year, as was the case for Valley- field, and the matter remained in doubt, when the committee adjourned.The bill was sponsored by Gon- train Saintonge, M.L.A., for Beauhar- Dundee W.M.S.Meeting.\u2014 The February meeting of the Women's Auxiliary was held at the home of Mrs.George W.Fraser, on Thursday afternoon, 8th inst, It was agreed that one delegate only besides the official delegate should be chosen to attend the annual meeting of \u2018he Montreal

as to how to overcome the obstacles.Excursions have been run on practically every branch line at almost ridiculously low rates.The excursions have met with varied success.Nothing is more disappointing to a large corporation than to find the public do not accept bargains when offered: but the New York Central railway cannot say the people declined to accept their excursion rate offer of Saturday and Sunday.From Huntingdon alone, 157 people bought tickets.Valleyfield sold 315 tickets.and so the sales were accordingly made all along the line.The excursion went over with a bang for nearly 800 people purchased tickets, so it is very likely another excursion will follow.A mid-week excursion might appeal to the public as well as a week-end, for many people would like to go to the city to transact business that they cannot do in the country.The railways have their problems, and it is well that the public aid them, especially when they make such alluring offers.Huntingdon's Financial Report For the first time in years a creditable financial statement is prepared for the taxpayers of Huntingdon.In the past, statements were presented, but they did not interpret much other than the receipts and expenditures of the year.The present set up shows that our fixed assets represent $156,386.04.This is no mean sum, but one that was not taken into serious consideration in past statements, The statement shows that the town was so administered in 1932 that a balance of $4,433.43 was attained.The statement is comprehensive, and is one that will be of mater- ipl assistance to the council in administering its finances during the year.It is to be hoped the council will have a monthly balance struck off and presented each member of the Board monthly.so that they will be able to keep close check on all money matters throughout the year.Measuring up to the Hour Leadership has always been the main factor in the success of any movement or great change in the history of world affairs.When there is active, live leadership at the head of any group or organized effort, then we find that results are obtained.At the present time, there is a general unrest among all classes of people.People are seeking advice and information on the great things of life.They want assurance and leadership.They go to the churches but come away with little or no comfort.The fault does not lie with the Church leaders entirely, but attention should be directed to those in charge.Are the leaders on their toes to give that necessary comfort, consolation and leadership?If they are not.then where can it be had?In the streets.or places of question.you will find a type of leadership that is all too ready to distribute speech, advice and leadership.It does carry many away but does it satisfy.Testing times are times filled with opportunity.This is the time for outstanding leaders in the respective churches to pay more attention to the leadership that they are giving and the daily living of the true Christian life.Christianity has something that will satisfy the needs of the people today.The leadership that has been given has produced men and women who are taking their places in the front ranks today.More direct leadership from the Church leaders is required.Men and women to come out boldly and stand for those things that all know to be right.More men and women to give of their actual experiences in life and to stand behind their leadership.These are the things that are needed in this age.Those who will not measure up during this age will be left stranded.It may be a machine age, it may be an age of pleasure-hunters, but people who know are finding that there is something more under the surface.People are looking for an unswer and if those in position to give that answer fail them they will look elsewhere.A Word of Caution \u201cWe love our Children,\u201d a customary slogan the Dominion over; but are we doing all we can to love them and protect them.The children are given the first care in every home.If they show the least sickness they receive attention, but what are we doing for them when they are on the streets.It is but natural the small boy should be out doors enjoying the fresh air, and all that goes in the way of winter sport.The unusual winter we are having is providing one form of amusement for the young lads that should be stopped at once and that is the catching of rides on the back of autos, or being towed by autos.Some day, sooner or later.we will hear of someone being run over, or have a fall that may mean a broken leg or arm.It would be a pitiful predicament for the boy, and just imagine how the owner of the car would feel, yet he should not be held accountable, although unknowingly he is an accessory to the fact.Another thing we see too frequently is the children playing with their sleds on the roads.Cars running as freely as they are this winter and icy roads, makes it that they cannot stop as quickly as under ordinary conditions, therefore we recommend to parents that they caution their children to discontinue resorting to these two modes of entertainment.Don't think your children are not doing it, just take it for granted that they are doing it the same as many others, tell them of the dangers and the possibilities of an accident.British Rule in India (From the Kamloops Sentinel) Is Gandhi an elaborate humbug?Is he inconsistent and insincere?Is this picture we have of his poverty and simplicity all a myth?These were questions one had to ask when Mrs.Millicent MacKinnon, only woman member of the Indian council, and herself a Brahman princess, lectured to the Canadian club at Kamloops, B.C.According to the speaker the followers of Gandhi number a mere 30,000, The man travels in a Ford car but privately owns a Rolls-Royce; he preaches poverty and is a moneylender.What are we to make of it?Mrs.MacKinnon has powerful weapons to fight the cause of the British in India.She is the daughter of a Britisher and her motler was a native princess.Highly educated, mentally vigorous, sensitive to the horrors she has seen in her own country where millions live miserably under the curse of caste, Mrs.MacKinnon is able to make a powerful sppeal.After listening to Mrs.MacKinnon's story one is inclined to believe that we have not sufficient faith in the rule of the mother country.If there are any apologists for British rule in India, they seldom visit Canadian clubs.The British are singularly silent about it all and yet the press of other countries is full of stories from any sort of source that wishes to be heard from, complaining of the autocracy of British rule.Perhaps our own rostrums have been too wide open to propagandists of the other side.Mrs.MacKinnon brings fresh light to dwell upon the huge task that is Britain's in ordering what otherwise would be chaotic conditions in a vast continent.Something of the intricacies of caste, the appalling ignorance, the dirt and the distress of the land was vividly conveyed by this woman, whose family has suffered at the hands of fanatical assassins.There are many sides to this vast question of India.It may be that too many publicists, many of them with a vague ides of the problems, have created à false impression of the whole subject.Mrs.MacKinnon speaks as one with authority.Her story is convincing and her loyalty to the crown, which deserves more than it frequently receives from some white men, is refreshing in these times when outside influence, such as Soviet Russia, are anxious 10 undermine British rule in India.Chronicled News Bits Specially Written for The Huntingdon Gleaner Terrier Plain Shocked A terrier received the shock of its life in Union street, Aldershot, England, when stopping -uddenly while following its mistress, it began a weir! dance to the accompaniment of howls.The owner tugged in vain at the leash.A puzzled crowd gathered, and with them came a mixed pack of other dogs, whose yaps and bays\u2014tenor and baritone\u2014joined the terrier's falsetto in a chorus thai scarcely blended.It attracted a policeman, and he solved the riddle.As he stepped on the spot where the dog was staging its dance the animal leaped off and immediately became quiet.The policeman jumped too.There was a short circuit under the pavement just there.Burglar Pays In Milwaukee, Wis, Charles Sniedieger was a victim of a robbery, but it cost the thief just $7 to break into the Sniedieger home.The robber had taken what cash was lying on the dresser, about $15, when Sniedieger awakened, jumped from his bed and grappled with the thug, who finally got away.When Sniedieger turned on a light he saw money all over the floor.He picked up $22, just $7 more than he had before the burglar entered.Millions Unclaimed The total amount of unclaimed funds now held in chancery in London exceeds $250,000,000.This money has been accumulating for 60 years and is being added to at the rate of $20,000 a year.There are 1,200 accounts.Not more than one or two claims are established during a year's time, and the fund grows larger as it grows older.How people can put away money and then forget about it is more than we can understand.New Romney Found When Mr.Alex.Martin, a member of the {irm of Christies, famous London fine art auctioneers, received a group of pictures from a client he was particularly struck by one, and close examination of the canvas revealed it to be a Romney.It sold for $3600.The picture appeared to have been cut {rom a larger canvas, and its subject is a woman in pink and white drapery caressing her son.The picture had so far escaped the notice of experts.Star For Everybody Present day telescopes bring within reach of human vision 300 trillion stars.How many more there are no one knows, but even the 300 trillion would be enough to give every human being who ever Hved a star.A 24-inch telescope reveals in southern skies alone 76.000 galaxies of stars, And a single galaxy is a host of stars like the \u201cMilky Way.\" to which our own solar system belongs.There may be as many as a million stars in one galaxy.which is the estimated number in our \"Milky Way.\u201d M Pushcart Store Losing his job last spring and unable to find another, Charles Williams, 70, of Detroit, decided to go into business for himself.He loaded à small pushcart with shoe strings, handkerchiefs, buttons, thread and other nicknacks, and with his wife started out afoot.They returned to Detroit early in December, having travelled 2,500 miles through six states, on foot all the way, both in good health and having made a good living from their sales of notions mostly at farm homes.Sponge Harvest On A colony of Greeks at Tarpon Springs, Fla., lives wholly on the sponge fisheries of the Caribbean Sea.The biggest event of the year is the departure of the sponge fleet in October.Every able-bodied man in the colony goes.There were 500 in the fleet of sailing vessels that embarked last fall.Dressed in diving suits about half the members of the crew drop to the bottom to a maximum depth of about 200 feet, where they scrape the live sponge fish into rope baskets.The rest of the crews remaining on the surface hoist the baskets and string the skeletons in the riggings to dry.It is the skeletons that make the sponges.Glasses in the Reads of diving suits enable the sponge fishers to see as they work.Occasionally a shark pokes his nose into the scene.In such cases the diver merely stands rigid and waits.A shark must get under its prey to strike.If he comes too close the diver shoots a string of bubbles at him from his air valve, which for some reason drives these man eaters away.We May Fly Soon If a man could fit himself with two wings, each with five square feet of surface and could make from 13 to 20 wing strokes a second, he could fly.So says Antoine Magnan, technical adviser of France's air ministry.Use of foot pedals and multiplying gears would give the flier the necessary power to operate the wings, Magnan says, thus making it possible for him to fly with his own bodily energy just as the birds do.\u201cIn two or three years, perhaps, men will be frolicking about in the sky like birds,\u201d this Frenchman predicts.\u201cIs it any stranger for a man to tly with wings than to float 100 miles on a glider?\u201d Few Bears in Japan Bears in Hokkaido, northernmost of the main islands of Japan, will be extinct within ten years unless the government takes measures to protect them, Prof.T.Inukai, of Kokkaido Imperial university told the Imperial Academy in Tokio.The speaker said years ago there were thousands of deer and Siberian wolves in Kokkaido, but they all were exterminated by market hunters.At one time factories were established on the island to can deer meat.Upwards of half a million deer were killed to supply the factories.Big Game While hunting rabbits on the farm of J.M.Rarick near Princeton, Kan., Rev.G.C.Flannery was surprised to see a man dragging two sacks around a brush pile filled with wriggling, squawking chickens.Seeing the preacher with his gun, the man dropped the sacks and ran.The preacher noticed a car standing nearby, and appropriated the keys.Then he telephoned Sheriff Geiger and organized a posse of farmers, The thief escaped, but the county is holding his car and Rarick got back 18 Rhode Island chickens stolen from him, .China Sets Tax on Feasts A soclety for the promotion of temperance in feasting has been organized in Kwangtung province, China, to modify the age-old custom of spending more than one can afford upon feasts to commemorate weddings and other festive occasions.The Kwang- tung government has supported the society by imposing a ten per cent tax upon feasts considered beyond the means of those who give them.In one town, Meihsien, there was a caterers\u2019 strike when this tax was imposed, and no feasts were given for several days.But the government did not yleld.Members of the society have pledged themselves not to serve more than light refreshments upon any occasion, and not to give more than ten cents towards any commemoration gift.Some prominent officials have set examples by serving only light refreshments at the weddings of their sons.False Alarm Holdup Customers and officials of the Irving Trust bank of Brooklyn thought they were in for 2 genuine western hold-up when six shabbily dressed men entered the doors.An alert bank guard drew a pistol and ordered them to throw up their hands.Three surrendered and the others fled.There was wild excitement in the bank.In a short time, however.the three men who had {led returned with officials from the American Legion headquarters, who explained that the six men were needy veterans who had received tickets entitling them to obtain flour from the Red Cross in the basement of the bank building.They were trying to find the cellar when, by mistake, thev entered the bank, And so a front page thriller for the newspapers was utterly ruined.Pain Soother A new pain-relieving drug having about five times the potency of morphine without its habit- forming effect, has been developed in Germany and is now available in America.The name of it, dihydro- morphinone hydrochloride, needs shortening.Dr.Walter Alvarez, of the Mayo clinic, rochester, Minn., describes it as particularly useful for cases of cancer that cannot be operated on.It gives more relief from pain than morphine and prolongs the useful life of the patients, who can be up and working while taking this drug.Dr.Alvarez believes it might be used in treating morphine addiction.Python in Cellar Last May two pythons escaped from a circus performer in St.Louis who had locked them in a bathroom of an old tenement building.One of them was recaptured, having hidden in the walls of the building.The other was not found.Recently Sylvester Hann, janitor of the building, stumbled over something in a dark basement.Reaching down he found it to be a huge snake.It was the other python that had escaped.Hann lost no time getting out of the basement.A zoo keeper was sent for.who captured the reptile, which was 11 feet long.Reminds Jury Three years ago Wilbur Hand was found guilty of a bank robbery at Galion, O., but protested his innocence to the last.He is now serving a 21 to 25-year sentence in Ohio state prison.He has the names and addresses of all the jurors who found him guilty, and sends each of them a Christmas card every year.The message on his cards last Christmas read: \u201cLest you forget: This is my third Christmas in the penitentiary for a crime of which I am innocent.\u201d Feet For Hands Born without arms, Paul Desmuke, San Antonio, Tex., can do virtually everything with his feet that the ordinary man can do with his hands.At the breakfast table Desmuke pours his own coffee, helps himself to the cream.stirs the drink and lifts it to his lips, using his feet.He butters his toast and handles his knife and fork as expertly as anyone could ask.He can reach into his pocket, take a cigarette out of a package, light it and flip the burned match away as easily as an ordinary man can with hands.Desmuke can take his watch out of his pocket with his toes, adjust his hat, and do other things with his feet that defy belief.LES 45,000 Butterflies The largest and most comprehensive collection of Australian moths and butterflies in the world\u2014 45,000 specimens\u2014has been presented to the National Museum, Melbourne, by George Lyell, a noted Lepidopterist.The collection, which represents 5,522 species and includes 385 types, is contained in 267 .cabinet drawers and 52 boxes.Lyell has followed his hobby and scientific pursuit for more than 40 years.Horse Stages Comeback A Boston milk delivering company has bought 300 horses to reduce delivery costs.A horse will stop and start at the driver's command and follow him from house to house, something an auto truck could not be taught to do.One big oil company in New York city has issued an order to all its stations to install drinking fountains for horses.Maybe the growing generation is yet to know the pleasures of horse and buggy courting.Tack in Lung June Goldsmith, 5 years old, has been freed from \u201cpains in the back\u201d suffered for three years, due to a carpet tack in her lung.June had the whooping cough several years ago, but she continued to cough long after the malady should have disappeared.An X-ray showed a foreign substance, An operation was performed in a New York hospital and the tack was removed.ES Soldiers on Skates Japanese skating regiments soon may be ringing over the surfaces of frozen Manchurian rivers in chase of Chinese guerrillas, Owing to the difficulty of transport during the winter months, it is asserted the Japanese war office has decided to equip certain infantry units with skates to speed their operations along the rivers which transverse Manchuria.Since guerrillas must look to Chinese villages which are usually along the rivers for winter quarters, the skating Japanese can cause the guerrillas great difficulty.Other Japanese units may be equipped with skis.HEAD OFFICE: TORONTO, CANADA.ASSETS SURPLUS $47,298,633 96,035,328 (ALL PROFITS PAID TO POLICYHOLDERS Kensington Interesting Debate.\u2014 On Friday evening,

Rovers in China Well Patronized Like an American circus, perhaps the most interesting thing about a traveling Chinese theatrical troupe is the erection of the \u201cbig top\u201d in which the performances are held.Although not as big as \u201cthe Greatest Show on Earth,\u201d the oriental structure is unique in that it is constructed entirely of bamboo, fiber matting, and native wood.One \u201chead canvasman\u201d claimed that not one nail was used in erecting the temporary playhouse.The framework was entirely of wood, bound together with thin strips of bamboo bark, peeled off and dried.The enormous skeleton was then covered with fiber matting.The \u201ctent\u201d was over 60 feet high, and had a large seating capacity.The performances given by the itinerant players are a source of great amusement to the many Chinese patrons who flock to the main entrance.The scenery is practically nil, the spectator being called upon to supply in his imagination the lack of stage equipment.Costly costumes and pan- tomine are the principal stock in The excruciating \u201cmusic\u201d of the native orchestra is indispensable in making the play a hit, and the lines of the various characters are punctuated by ferocious clanging of gongs or by the weird outburst of flutes and stringed instruments.Egyptian Prayer For Beer Prayers for the dead shown in a collection of Egyptian

in the House of Commons, Wednesday, by Dr.F.H.Pickel, Conservative, Member For Brome-Missisquoi Mr.F.H.Pickel (Brome Missis- quoi) moved: \u2018That in the opinion of this house the agricultural committee would give much better satisfaction if it were divided into sections: (a) agricultural section: (b) wheat section.He said: Mr.Speaker, in offering a few words in support of this resolution, I intend no discourtesy towards the grain growers.I move this resolution simply with the object of getting & committee that will function better, at least as regards eastern agriculture.At the present time and for some years past it has been impossible in the committee on agriculture to discuss agricultural problems relating to eastern Canada, and I should Uke to have that committee divided in such a manner that these questions may be discussed in a sane way.At the present time and for many years past the committee on agriculture has consisted of an overwhelming number.of grain growers who have just swamped the eastern section of that committee and it has been impossible, as I say, to discuss properly matters connected with eastern agriculture.The committee is composed of sixty members, t{wenty- seven of whom are grain growers, nine or ten genuine farmers from the east and the twenty-four or twenty- three who make up the remaining number, representing medicine, law, dentistry and almost every other calling that we have in this country.Under such circumstances it is hard to imagine how eastern agriculture can be discussed with any clearness in that committee.I want to pay my respects to the grain grower; I admit he is a number one good fellow and good citizen, but he is just as loquacious and aggressive as you can find.He never misses an opportunity of telling you all about any subject you may want to bring up; he imagines he knows it all.This is a superiority complex which has been developed in the past, when between the year 1921 and 1930 the wheat growers were directing the destiny of this country.I should like to call to the attention of the house some of the grievances facing eastern farmers.Especially since 1925 the east has been in a bad condition.The late government apparently did everything in its power to put it out of business.Purther, I am forced to admit that the present administration is not exerting itself to the extent I had wished, It is with some reluctance I take upon myself the task of bringing this to the attention of the house.The importance and urgency of the matter demands that something be done at once, if we are to save eastern agriculture.This should not be made a matter of political controversy.Both of the major parties in this house for a great many years have been negligent of the interests of the eastern.farmers.There are a few genuine farmers in this house, some of whom have been here for many years.Even they do not seem to be willing to accept the task of speaking for eastern agriculture.Perhaps their unwilling~ ness may be the result of their longer and greater political experience.However that may be.Mr.Speaker, I am going to do my best to fulfil my promise to help my farmer friends.I trust that the house will charitably acoept my observations in the spirit in which they are given.It is my intention to make some constructive suggestions with the sole object of aiding the government in some small measure, so that it may come to the rescue of the biggest and best class of & citizons in our dominion.In 1925, 1926 and 1930 I was told from every platform in my counties that it would be impossible to do anything in this house to help the farmers.I do not believe that such is the case, The great trouble in this chamber has been that hon, members did not know how to help eastern farmers.I purpose to tell of the grievances under which those fa-m- ers are labouring, and I am presumptuous enough to believe that I can suggest ways and means of relleving their difficulties.Mr.Mackenzie (Vancouver): about changing the government?Mr.Pickel: I have been engaged in mixed farming all my life.Without boactine 1d'v I flatter myself that I How Wednesday, February 15th, 1933 Know the game from A to Z.I want Lo add that it has been an expensive experience, and anybody who ha; been engaged in agriculture the last two years will not doubt my words.I have the honour to represent a double constituency, composed of those two fine counties Brome and Missis- mol.situated in the easern section of the province of Quebec.I was elected Dy, wy luimmer frsenas on the distinct promise that I would do what I could to help them, and to the best of my ability I shall attempt to fill ms promise, I can but say, in the words of Lincoln \u201cI am not bound to winy but I am bound to be true; I am not | hound to succeed.but I am bound to live up to what light I have.\u201d Knowing that there are several ways in which the farming industry could be beneficially assisted, I should be remiss in my duty were I not to bring my suggestions to the attention of the House of Commons, the body which has the power, if it will exercise that power, greatly to help the farmer out of the abyss in which he finds himself.I have been a member in this house for about two and a \u2018half years, and during the two long and one short sessions I have been a regular attendant.Now I find I have made a good beginning on a third session.I submit we have had very few practical suggestions, let alone any material legislation, for the benefit of dairymen.That fact in itself seems rather strange.I have listened anxiously and patiently for some of the farmers in this house to say a word for eastern agriculture.but up to the present time we have not hea-d one practical constructive sug- | gestion from either side of the house.The opposition never misses an opportunity to portray the calamitous conditions under which eastern farmers are working and have no hesitation in denouncing the present government therefor, despite the fact that hon.members opposite, when they occupied this side of the house, gave the farmers their death blow through the Australian trade treaty of 1925.The New Zealand order in council which remained in force until October 25, 1930, proved most destructive to the interests of the farmers.They have not been able to regain their former prestige and will not do so for some time, In 1922 the then government, the present opposition, enacted the Hog Grading Act.The unfair, irrational and unjust administration of both of these acts has proved a curse to the farmers.In the past two or three sessions it has been the regular pastime of some hon.members opposite to compare prices, They state that butter is so much in Canada and so much in the United States, eggs so much In Canada and so much in the United States.Particularly, that was the pleasant pastime in which the hon.member for Sherbrooke (Mr.Howard) induged.Today however we do not hear so much cackling .I would like to remind the house that all kinds of farm produce with the exception of beef, are selling for higher prices in Canada today than anywhere else in the world.Some hon.members: Oh, oh.Mr.Pickel: That is absolutely true.Hon.members do not realize it because they do not hear that side of the question discussed.While farmers in the United tates are receiving only ten or twelve cents a dozen for eggs, in Canada they are receiving twenty cents or more.While butter costs only sixteen or seventeen cents in the United States it costs twenty cents in Canada.Wo do not hear so many comparisons of prices as we did.An hon, member: What is the price in New Zealand?Mr.Pickel: A good deal less than it is here.During my short sojourn in this house I have leaned a few things, from observation and experience; not the least is that thig house ic not in sympathy with eastern agriculture.That seems strange.The eastern farmers constitute by far the largest class in this country.We all realize that the gove-nment is endeavouring to do everything it can to get us out of the terrible condition we are in, and to my mind, helping eastern farmers to increase their purchasing power woud go a long way in that direction.I propose to tell you how this can be brought about without increasing the cost to the consumer.To repeat I say that this house is of a varying mentality.When a farmer is mentioned in this house the great majority of the members at once commence to grin.In grain growing we have a shot seasonal cc- cupation, seed planting and harvesting.with three or four months intervening which the growers devote principally to lccal and domestic visiting and social amenities of one kind or another and studying all sorts of abstract political theories such as inflation and deflation, cu- rency revaluation increase of the Get Rid of That o SORE THROAT! Any little soreness in the throat grows rapidly worse if neglected.Crush some tablets of Aspirin in some water, and gargle at once.This gives you instant relief, and reduces danger from infection.One good gargle and you can feel safe.If all soreness is not gone promptly, repeat.There's usually a cold with the sore throat, so take two tablets to throw off your cold, headache, stiffness or other cold symptoms.Aspirin relieves neuralgia, neuritis, too.Use it freely; it does not hurt the heart.ASPIRIN TRADE-MARK REG.IN CANADA so on.To my mind inflation is equiv- slent to destruction, damnation and dissolution of the country.After harvest these same gentlemen\u2014barring the last two years\u2014fortified by a large bank roll, take occasion to tour the world.They make large amounts of money, but Camada does not get any benefit from it; it is spent in foreign countries.The western grain grower cannot stand the rigors of a Canadian winter; he has to go to southern beaches where the gentle zephyrs blow through his whiskers.I do not blame him one bit; I would do the same thing if I could.And I do not know that I can blame him for trying to put these things over on the east.But it is high time that the grain grows should recognize that there is an east, that it is all due to the east that there is a west at all.They should also appreciate that where there is one farmer west of Lake Superior there are three east.The westerner is a sort of migratory farmer; he goes away with the birds in the fall and comes back In the spring.Mr, Vallance: He doesn't take the eggs with him.Mr.Pickel: Referring back to the agriculture couunittee.I want to say that whenever an easterner gets up in that committee and begins to talk milk, eggs, butter, anything of the kind, the western grain growers will take the words right out of hi mouth.Seventy-five per cent of them cannot milk, and they do not want to be tied down to a cow, for if they are they cannot go south.Theirs is the glorious carefree life! Contrast this form of existence with the life of hard, plodding toil of the eastern farmer.He puts in the longest hours of continuous and exacting labour for the least remuneration of any class in the world.His is not a short seasonal occupation; it is continuous from day to day and from year to year all his life.He has to be on the job over six hundred eight hour days a year.That is the life of the eastern farmer.The eastern farmer is endowed with a pecudar mentality; the only difficulty he has is that he is non- cooperative, The western farmers, on the other hand, all hang together.1 wouid counsel the farmers of eastern Canada to send more representatives from the rural sections, members whose interests are their interests, I think the welfare of the farmers would be better looked after if there were more rural representation, If the eastern agriculturist were better represented in this house it would be much better for the house and for the country.I firmly believe that if there had been a good strong representation here of eastern farmers we would not have built the Grand Trunk Pacific, nor yet the Hudson Bay railway.The eastern farmer is faced with a continuous struggle for existence; he has the elements to fight\u2014drought, flood, wind frost, hail; he has numberless enemies in nature, many varieties af parasites.flies, worms, grubs and bugs.Everything he raises is the result of continuous and hard labour.One would raturally think that when he had brought his crop or product to maturity his labour would be about finished, but, sir, such is not the case.When he comes to put his product on the market and tries to secure a little return for his labour he meets another set of pests even worse than the others.I refer to middlemen, commission men, inspection acts, irrational and unfair administration of grading acts, governmental interference, regulations and restrictions.and by no means least, the politician.That is what the eastern farmer is up against.Now the politician means well, but in the majority of cases he has- not the slightest idea of what could and should be done to help the farmer; so adverse instead of beneficial legislation is oftem enacted.For instance, we hear advocated the formation of an export marketing board.That seems to be a sort of shibboleth in this house.To my mind sir, we do not need an export marketing board at all.We certainly do not need it for the east; if it can do anything for the west I am for it and will do fanything I can to further it.Here I would like to put on Han- sard the percentage of Canadian agricultural production consumed in the domestic market.Excluding wheat and cheese, nearly 97 per cent of all fa m produce is consumed here in Canada; excluding wheat, 95.7 per cent; incuding wheat, 88 per cent.The eastern farmer has nothing of any consequence to export.just a little chese.Of oats, 100 per cent is consumed in Canada; of barley, 100 per cent; of rye, 100 per cent; of flax seed, 100 per cent; of milk, condensed and milk products, 100 per cent; of eggs, 100 pe- cent.Red clover is the a-tic\u2019e of which we consume least, namely 27.7 per cent.Mr.Dupuis: May I ask the hon member where he got these statistics?Mr.Pickel: I got them from the bureau of statistics.Percentages of Canadian Agricultural Production Consumed in the Domestic Market 1930-31 1931-32 Field crops:

for which I have figure.1931-32.Right at home, under our very noses the eastern farmer is being exploited and profiteered against by the middleman and the commission man.These people apparently have no difficulty in securing the necessary legislation from the different governing bodies to enable them to take advantage of the farmer, and that is the trouble with the eastern farmer today.In support of my contention I bring to your notice the condition of the milk trade.In my section of the country, fifty-five miles from Montreal, 75 per cent of all the milk produced is consumed fresh as fluid milk or cream; 57 per cent and a decimal of all the milk produced in the entire dominion is consumed as fresh milk or cream, 25 per cent is made into butter, 6 per cent into cheese, and 7 per cent and a decimal into milk products\u2014evaporated milk and milk products.The great bulk of the produce of the farmers in the east is milk; that is what the farmer depends upon principally for his income.In the city of Montreal during the past season the farmers in my section have received a net of 70 cents a hundred pounds for milk.They are supposed to get $1.35, and they must pay 25 cents express to the city as well as cartage from the station, and then they are penalized becauce they are told that they are sending too much.The distributor tells them that they have so much milk that they have to separate it, and therefore the farmer has to take butter prices.This brings his net down to 70 cents and even as low as 60: at any rate it varies between 60 and 80.The Montreal market, even at that low price, is the best market we have, and the result is that more milk and cream is sent to the city than is consumed as fresh milk or ceam.Consequently much of this milk is churned, so that the farmers have to be content with a butter price.That is the farmer's side of the story.On the other hand, the distii- butor.when he sells that milk receives $4 per hundred, if he dist\"i- butes in quarts, at 10 cents a quart, and he gets 2 cents a quart extra if he distributes by the pint.If you consider the spread he gets out of ice cream.which costs him 37% cents a gallon and which he sells at $1.20, and consider the buttermilk which he steals entirely from the farmer and sells for nearly as much as he does whole milk, and if you consider further the separated milk which he uses to reduce the super- standard milk which he also steals from the farmer, you will readily sce that he ls getting more than 85 per hundred.How in the world such an unjust condition of affairs can oe permitted to exist in this supposedly civilized country is more than I can imagine.It is absolute robbery.Now the farmer does not wish to boost the price to the consumer.whe is paying enough already; but 95 per cent of the consumers in the city if you asked them, would tell you that the fa-mers are robbing them.That is simply propaganda spread by the milkman to cover up his wickedness.He tries to pull the wool over people\u2019s eyes and make them think he \u2018s engaged in some philanthropic undertaking instead of staging a genuine holdup.CROW economical and delicious table syrup Housewives

the chamber will not have much weight in Quebec; they will not get any sympathy and 50 they will not come there.The older I get the firmer I am in my conviction that the greatest asset the dominion has is the Frenchr Canadian race.These people are the bulwarks of Canada: there is no question about it.Come there and go amongst them and you will see that they are busy people.They do not travel, but stay at home and attend to their business.Right here I want to tell the western grain growers that there is a great potential market in the east for them if they will only take advantage of it.We should not be making butter in the east.We make the poorest butter in the world.It is humiliating to tell the farmer of eastern Canada that his butter is no good, but it is a fact.Whenever we send a consignment of butter to England, which is rare, it is at the bottom as regards grade and price; it receives the lowest price in the world.But when we send a box of cheese it is of superior quality.Our cheese is on Lop; it is the best cheese in the world.It is a sad reflection on the Canadian people that we have been making butter for years and years when we could have done so much better making cheese.Last summer we made butter that sold at 15, 16 and 17 cents, whereas if we had made cheese we could have got as much 1s 25 cents.Let our people in the west make butter and everyone else in Canada make cheese; let us specinl- ize in it.We make an article that the English market requires.Let us note the trend of the trade.In 1904 we exported 247.000 000 pounds of cheese to England: last year we exported 74,000,000 pounds.In 1904 New Zealand sent hardly any cheese to that market; last year they exported 250,000000 pounds.They have usurped our place in the English market so far as volume is concerned; nevertheless we maintain the supremacy in price.Our cheese is the best; let us specialize in it.The government is possessed of all these facts and should support an educational campaign throughout the east to assist the people in every way possible in the making of cheese.Returning now to the milk situu- tion, in the cities the different inspectors, the officials of the board of health and the legislatures seem to vie with one another in passing restrictive legislation at the request of the distributors for the purpose of keeping the small man out.The distributor builds great big palaces of plate glass and marble, moving into new premises every few years, and the farmer pays the price.Go into the streets of Montreal and stop before some apartment house in which there are fifteen or twenly familles and you will sce half a dozen milk trucks.They are just as extravagant in their operations as they can be.They do not curtail; the farmer is an easy mark and he pays the price.There are times when one may be pardoned for experiencing a sort of sentimental charitableness towards a pickpocket or a robber who takes long chances to gain his end.but there is no charity that anyone can instead.sive.of L.GAUTHIER *For 30 eents you can telephone about 100 miles by makicz an \u201canyone\u201d call (station-to-station) after 8.30 p.m.rates IS STRUCK OUT Measure For Lights on Horse- drawn Vehicles Defeated in Committee Forces against the bill of Amedée Caron, Liberal M.L.A., for Magdalene Islands.whereby horse-drawn vehicles would have to carry lights after dark gathered in full force Thursday when the Agricultural Committee of the Legislative Assembly met to deal with the matter, with the result that the bill, in its main principle.was killed by a vote of 22 to 3.However, that is not the end of the matter even for this session, for, as declared by A.A.Legault, Liberal M.LLA.for Gatineau, \u201cif this idea is to be killed we will have a grand funeral for it and not a little burial in the cellar.\u201d So when the report of the committee reaches the House it is expected that Mr.Legault and others will make a strenuous fight in the matter.The strange thing is that Mr.Legault represents a county the population ot which is 75 per cent.farming, and he 1s strongly for the bill.The whole bill was not killed.Practically all the members of the committee approved of a clause whereby bicycles must carry lights after dark.Motorcycles have been under that obligation for many years and the man or boy-propelled variety will have to follow suit Mr.Caron tried to make his bill as palatable as possible.He himself proposed an amendment whereby the obligation on horse-drawn vehicles to carry lights would apply only on the main highways.and that between May 1st and November 1st.Even this concession failed to gain the necessary support.The farmers were out.in force, and only Dr.Bouthilller, of St.Johns, J.A.Crete of Laviolette, and Georges Dansereau of Argenteuil voted for the measure.The objecting members claimed what was first necessary was à campaign of education amongst the farmers.L.J.Thisdel of Maskinonge spoke forcefully on that aspect of the case and Dr.Pierre Gauthier of Portneuf also dealt with the need of preliminary education.The question of responsibility in case of accident also arose.Pierre Gagnon, M.LiA.for Kuamouraska claimed that if a light on a farmer's wagon went out and an accident with a motorcar happened, it might mean the ruin of the farmers.Mr.Caron amended the bill to meet this situation, thereby relieving the farm- feel towards the milk distributor who is daily guillotining and robbing the farmer, taking no chances at all

said that if a case of that nature should come before the courts the judges would find against the farmers on the ground that there was a presumption, at least, against them.Hon.Adelard Godbout, Minister of Agriculture, and chairman of the committee, dealt with this phase of the matter, and was of opinion that mo additional legal responsibility would rest upon the farmer in case of accident beoause of the passage of the bill.However, the committee was reluctant in the matter.The rural members gained an unexpected ally in Jos.Samson, Liberal MLA., for Quebec Centre, who said he had changed his mind since last year, and was now against the bill in the interests of the motorist himself.The matter will probably come before the House this week to be debated upon all over again.Weather Observations The idea of charting weather observations was suggested by the German physicist, Brandes, in 1820.The first synchronous weather chart was produced by Prof.Ellas Loomis of Yale college in 1843 and represented the weather of eastern United States on February 16, 1842.The term \u201cforecast\u201d was first used in reference to the prediction of wenther by Admiral Robert

solve unemployment, lo prevent thousands of women from holding jobs, which might be given to men.Serious Problem This debate was taken up Tuesday afternoon by several members, including Aime Guertin, member for Hull, and Hon.C.J.Arcand, Minister of Labor.Though most of the opinions recognized that the problem was a serious one, no one seemed in a pori- tion to offer a solution.It ended by the adoption of the motion under discussion, which called simply for the production of documents relating to the question.The rest of the sitting was taken up with routine matters, including the adoption on first and second reading of a number of bills of minor importance, and answers to questions by members of the Opposition.Aime Guertin, Conservative, Hull, who tock up the debate on the Fran- coeur motion, after making references to the situation in Montreal under the Houde and the Gabias regimes, thanked the member for Dor- ion for having raised a question of such paramount importance.The speaker expressed himself as being in full sympathy with the motion, added that the figures which had been cited showed truthfully the situation as it exists today in the larger cities.Right to Work

the father, husband and brother are deprived of employment.Mr.Guertin asked whether the world was not reverting to primitive times, when the women were the slaves of men, and obliged to accept the most arduous menial duties.while man confined his activities to play and defense of his home.Mr.Guertin is of opinion that a great number of office jobs now occupied by women could easily be given to young men, Unhappily.he said, many parents prefer to send their boys to work at an early age, and keep their girls at school as long as possible.to quality them as stenogra- phezs.This condition is responsible for the fact that a large number of.young men who have graduated from commercial schools are waiting their first position.Refuse to Marry The member for Hull remarked that many of these women who have earned money for a number of years refuse to marry men earning an ordinary salary.because they do not wish to live modestly.The urge for fine clothes and easy pleasures is responsible for many of these cases.Mr.Guertin said.Mr.Guertin cited the case of the Kansas City Power Company, which ordered its women workers to get maried within a certain period.ot lose their job.The University of Toronto also has given notice to quit to all its women employes whose husbands are working.The member for Hull said that there could be no question of prohibiting women from occupying outside jobs, but every encouragement should be given to employers to give preference to men.whenever possible.A way to attain the end aimed at by the member for Dorion, the speaker said, would be to adopt a system of mothers\u2019 allowances, as in Ontario.Make Way for Men Ernest Poulin, member for Laurier.who seconded the motion.said that he did not wish to prevent women, who are supporting relatives from working.but he belleved that the others who are only occupying positions, because they can satisfy by this means their tastes for luxuries should make way for men.Women, he said, are already filling offices, they are to be found in stores and in many other places, replacing men.thus forgetting the role assigned to them by nature and by civilization.Their presence in so many positions explains why so many young and married men are without a job today.sggravating seriously the problem of Dr.the social position of women.Dr.Pierre Gauthier, member Portneuf, endorsed these views, Hon.C.J.Arcand, Minister of Labor, while thanking the members for expressing their views on the subject, remarked that the question was of such importance, from a social, political and economical viewpoint that it could not be easily settled without the sanction and approval of international conferences.Mr.Arcand claimed that the Government had done much to render the work of women less onerous and to keep them away from work not fitted for them, and was continuing along these lines.The sponsor of the motion closed the debate with a few remarks emphasizing the necessity of taking means to alleviate the present situation.Replies to Questions Hon.L.A.David informed the leader of the Opposition, Maurice Duplessis, that the Quebec Official Gazette had received from January

you want to go to sleep is another, and it is most annoying.We are apt to complain and to make a fuss if we lie awake.If our wakeful- ress becomes a habit, then we are victims of insomnia.To worry about not going to sleep is the surest way to keep awake.If the wakefulness is due to pain or illness, this {s a matter of some concern.but the healthy normal person suffers no harm from his failure to go to sleep promptly.There is no hard and fast rule as to how much sleep 1s required.The young and the old require more rest than does the person who is middle- aged.We should secure sufficient rest So as to be ready to get up at rising- time, even though we may not be anxious to leave our warm and comfortable beds.Personal experience will determine what the bed-time should be in each case.s0 as to allow for sufficient rest.It is the fear that he will sleep which keeps the victim of somnia awake, and over not having slept which makes him feel tired.If such a person would not fuss and toss and turn; if he would relax quietly in bed.with mind and body at rest, he would secure sufficient rest even though he slept but little.\u2018 When the light is turned out.sleep is to be expected.but it should not be sought after, Relaxation and a quiet aniticipation of sleep help us to pass the time until we lose ourselves in sleep.If a bad habit is established.it can be broken.The bad habit of staying awake can be overcome by building up a good habit of going to sleep.To do this, a new routine should be started.one which will facilitate and suggest going to sleep.A sufficient amount of outdoor exercise prepares the body for rest, A comfortable bed, a ccol room, quiet and darkness are factors which generally are favourable to sleep.A warm drink before going to bed.an interesting but not too exciting book may help.Whatever the routine followed.any fear of not sleeping must be banished.and any worry over possible ill effects of insomnia may be overcome by an appreciation of the fact that ill effects do not occur.The person who looks for sleep never finds it.The person who lets sleep find him is never troubled with insomnia.not : vi in- it is the worry

without a stop, if they had had any fuel left.Care Town is 6,198 miles from Cranwell aerodrome, England, where the fliers took off on Monday morning.The British airmen actually travei- led further than Walfish Bay, but with fuel giving out, returned to this small settlement to land.A perfect landing marked the end of the roai- ing trip over English countryside, the Channel, France and the Mediterranean, the desert, jungle and hills of Africa.The officers had been in the air for 57 hours and 28 minutes.and they were masters of the situation throughout.* * - * Thursday Capt.J.A.Mollison scored another signal victory over fatigue, mileage and time today when he brought Pis little feur-cylinder plane down at Natal, Brazil, in time for supper after a 1,750-mile hop across the South Atlantic Ocean, which was the last lap of a 4,800-mile journey from England.The popular British aviator concluded this, his latest, great flight in good health and high spirits.\u201cSho's a sweet little ship,\u201d he said with a caressing glance at the Hear(\u2019s Content, just after it had finished the Transatlantic flight from Thies Senegal, on the west coast of Arica in roughly 18 hours.His total elapsed time from Lympne Aercdrome, England, which he left Monday morning, was three days and 10 hours.- * » = Friday More than 200 persons were killed and more than 1000 were injured early this evening in an explosion of one of the biggest gas tanks in Eu:- ope in the plant of the Neunkirchen Iron Works at Saar Basin, Germany.About 300 were critically hurt.Forty- seven bodies have been found.A workmen's settlement of 15 homes near the tank was destroy«d in the blast, which came at 6 pm.A large benzol factory, which was part of the plant, burst into flames and lighted like a gigantic torch scenes of horror in the streets of the small town.Throughout a large area the roofs of all buildings were blown off.windows were smashed and streets \u2018ere heaped with debris.- Ld Customs authorities today refused to admit duty free a second test shipment of Canadian wheat out of New York.Their decision was thought to imply determination of the British Government to impose full tariff of two shillings a quarter (eight bushels) on wheat not shipped from a Canadian, or other Empire, port.It came as no surprise to traders on the Liverpeol Corn Exchange.The shipment on which today\u2019s ruling was made had been sent in bond to New York from the head of the Great Lakes and transferred to the steamer Britannic.Shippers said it originated in Canada They had hoped they had established definite proof of its Canadian origin but recalled that customs officials told them it was very difficult to retain identity of wheat as Canadian once it had crossed the border into the United States.- = * * Saturday Twenty-two men were killed and 25 injured by a 100-pound airplane bomb which put an end Friday to the five-day mutiny of the native w of the Dutch cruiser de Zeven ovincien.Eighteen men were reported killed outright and four died aboard the destroyer Piethein, which arrived at Batavia, Java and disembarked the dead and wounded.First reports of the arrival of the Piethein did not disclose whether all the victims were aboard her.Until that air bomb landed, the mutineers remained defiant despite the fact that they were menaced by a fleet of pursuing war vessels and half a dozen airplanes.Three Europeans and 15 Javanese natives were killed by the bomb and one Dutch officer and a young Dutch sailor were slightly wounded, The brief engagement, in which the mutineers made no use of the 16 heavy guns with which their vessel was armed, took place at dawn off the southwest Sumatra coast, about 400 miles northwest of Batavia.The rebels, who had risen in a demonstration against pay cuts, replied \u201cDon't hinder us\u2019 when the commander of the pursuit ordered them to surrender unconditionally in 10 minutes.As soon as that period of grace was over.a warning bomb was dropped alongside the cruiser.Still the mutineers failed to display a white cloth on the deck awning\u2014the signal of cap:- tulation stipulated by the pursuers.Immediately one of the planes in the attack fleet dropped a bomb on the deck.Fire started aboard the cruiser aud some of the natives went over the side into lifeboats.Others signalled surrender.The fire did little damage and soon the master of the cruiser, who had been left ashore when the mutineers took her over, went aboard his coni- mand.The warship had orders to come to Batavia.» .The Week-End Once again Canadians have glided their way to domination of the North American figure-skating championships.Before a critical assemblage in Madison Square Garden, New York, Saturday night, Constance Wilson Samuel and her brother, Montgomery Wilson, of Toronto, outshone a brilliant field of men and women skaters from Canada and United States to take the major title.The sisters and brother act, rulers of the championships since 1929, won both singles events for the third successive time and then teamed to again account for the pairs title, first won in 1929 and retained in 1931.» * * * After 29-years service on the bench Rt.Hon.Francis A.Anglin.Chief Justice of Canada, is retiring, He handed in his resignation to Premier R.B.Bennett Saturday.Ill-health compelled the veteran jurist to retire.For the past year or two he has struggled with successive attacks of illness and up until a short time ago he was hopeful of being able to rc sume his duties this month.Mr.Justice Anglin had occupied the highest judicial post in the Dominion for eight and a half years, being appointed Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Canada in 1924, after some years of private practice five years on the Ontario High Court Bench and 15 years as a member of the Supreme Court Bench.He was born in Saint John in 1865 and in adopting the legal profession forsook that of his father.a journalist, He will leave in Canadian judicial records judgments that are models of precision, His erstwhile colleagues at the same time will remember the unostentatious way with which he carried out his high duties, Justice Anglin discharged the duties of Canada's supreme magistrate with less fuss than many a town clerk makes.Chief Justice Anglin is a brother of Margaret Anglin, world famous actress.# * + + Blcod-stained streets in a number of German cities Sunday told of political clashes over the week-end which caused 11 deaths and injuries to 23 persons, At Eisleben the worst clash occurred.Police declined to discuss the fight until they had made an investigation.A troop of Nazis claimed they had been shot at from Communist party headquarters, The Nazis stormed the building and demolished its furnishings.Then they entered the nearby Turner Hall and engaged in a hand-to-hand fight for half an hour before police forced their way into the battling mob.There were killed and 15 hurt, The death toll there might be higher, for witnesses maintained that the Communists had hidden their injured and dead comrades, Two persons were killed at Bichum, and one each at Strassfurt, Dessau, Breslau, Dortmund, Stuttgart and Denshejm.Police at Brunaschweig shot at two women who failed to leave their windows where a Nazi troop was passing.Berlin was relatively quiet.Fifty Communists were arrested in Duesseldorf, where police said weapons and ammunition were found.* * * * Field Marshall Sir William Robert - son died suddenly Sunday in his London home at the age of 75.Sir William Robertson was an

$39,387,961 For Current Year to $34,242,071 Whether the Quebec Government sees no silver lining to the depression cloud.or merely wishes 10 be cautious, the estimates which Hon.R.F.Stockwell, Provincial Treasurer, gave in the Legislative Assembly Thursday.provide for an expenditure of for the current year of $39.387.961.No doubt the latter amount of mon- ed will not be spent; that is certain in fact.but it is a figure with which comparisons can be made because of lack of other means of comparison.The public debt naturally must be cared for.and the charges cannot be cut down, so there is $7,278.702 provided for that purpose, as against $8.- 013.213.From there on the cutting starts.Legislation, hard as it is to cut is to cost $659.510, a drop af $9.- 700; civil government will cost $2.347,843, an increase of $9.125; administration of justice $2.545.650, instead of $2.570.506; education.$3,505,620 instead of $3.616,070; municipal affairs, $85,000.an increase of $44,000, this to provide for the Quebec Municipal Commission; insane asylums.$1.239,.- 511, a decrease of $425971; reformatory and industrial schools, $299.072, a decrease of $190.928; health, $614.- 500.an increase of $85,000, which is due to the fact that the Government proposes to extend the county health units throughout he whole province at a cost of an additional $150.000, that family placement service will be increased by $25,000, while $90,000 is cut off by a saving in general service of $40.000 in the amount for tuberculosis and infantile mortality, and $10,000 less for purchase of vaccine.The decreases mean mainly that the county health units will the more effectively replace in part the present expenditure for checking child mortality and tuberculosis.Public Works Cut Public works is the next item.and it is cut from $1.681.907 to $1.447,296.There will be fewer highway bridges.no subsidies to railways to pay.and less for maintenance of jails and courthouses.The Department of Labor drops from $445,500 to $285.600.This is due to the fact that $100.000 will not be required for the workmen's compensation commission to get it started; $40 000 is lopped off the fire protection and lighting road acts, and $2.- 000 will not be needed for the social service commission.Agricultural grants are cut from $3.575.500 to $2.775.000 and here the cutting is all along the line.Roads and mines go from $8.305.000 to $6.800 000.The big saving here is in the resurfacing.an amount of $833,- 000 to be expended for this purpose under the act of 1929 when the Legislature voted a sum of $17.000.000 for resurfacing purposes, will not be used.There is also a cut of $462.000 under the item of construction, repair and maintenance, There is a cut of $150,000 in providing for the elimination of railway crossings, nothing being provided under this heading.This meets the fact that the railways and Ottawa, partners with the provinces in this matter of elimination of railway crossings, also have no money for the purpose.Expenditure for mines is down $50.000.The Department of Lands and Forests is cut from $1,889,440 to $1,308.- 000.a decrease of $581,440.The hydroplane service is cut practically altogether.down to $209,000 from $234,- 000.Surveys drop from $355,000 to $200,000, but the item for protection of forests, it is to be noted, is to be maintained at $450.000.which is only a drop of $440.The Department of Colonization.Game and Fisheries drops from $2,- 161.000 to $1.697.000.The premium for ploughing is increased by $50,000 to $300,000 but that is the only increase.Grants for colonization roads drop $400,000 from a million to $600.000.and the trend in other branches is also downward, though not so drastically.The charities account stays where it is, namely, at $23,865.since almost everything and everyone who can manage is now under the Quebec Charities Act.The item of charges on revenue drops $801.800, down from $1.557.000 to $755.200.The cause of the reductions there is largely a matter of administration.The money spent under the heading of miscellaneous services drops from $814.950 to $574700.This is the item which covers the proverbial multitude of sins.Expenditures are charged against it when there is no excuse or reason to charge them against the various departments.The Quebec Streams Commission will get $100,000 less, the office of the Agent- General in Britain comes in for $20,- 000 less, and there is a cut among a variety of other items.There is an increase of $20,000 in miscellaneous, however, this to go with the little rural savings banks.Then, and finally.there is recorded a saving of $1.- 000,000.This is the amount which has come from the receipts of the Quebec Liquor Commission for the purposes of the Quebec Charities Act.Presumably the money will be made up to the charitable institutions from capital sources, as was commenced last year, when only $300,000, of the liquor revenue went to that purpose.Albani Sylvestre Loses Fifteen Prize Cattle Fire destroyed the barn and piggery of Albani Sylvestre at St.8imon de Bagot Thursday morning.Fifteen purebred cattle mostly registered Canadian cows, were lost in thé fire, the cause of which is unknown.The loss is estimated at $7,000.to $8,000.Some of the cattle and pigs lost were Ormstown prizewinners.only $34,242/071.as against estimates ! The New President of the Canadian Ayrshire Breeders\u2019 Association From Simcoe Reformer) Henry Allan Swart, widely known citizen of Simcoe and newly-elected president of the Canadian Ayrshire Breeders\u2019 Association, is a graduate of the school of hard work.a fact \u20180 which he attributes u great measure of his success in life.Born in 1878 on a farm west of Port Rowan on the second concession of South Walsingham, he spent his boyhood days in the employ of | nelghbouring farmers, working loug hours and earning a mere pittance.His father was Henry Swart a Lon- ; don, Ont.man who came down to Rowan Mills to take up farming, His mother was a daughter of Archie Reid of Lynedoch, one of the early families of the county.Unfortunately his father died when H.A.Swart was only seven years of age.Consequently he was unable Lo finish public school and had to go to work when he was only ten years old, driving oxen, milking cows and tilling the soil.But farm chores did not hold the highest appeal in his young life.Whe he was 15 years old, he came \u2018o Simcoe and secured a job with the Canadian Canners.For twelve years he was shipping clerk with that firra.He left the Canners in 1910 to go into partnership with C.E.Innes in the establishment, of Strathlyun Farms.For seven years the partnership existed, carrying on a dairy business with a herd of mixed cows.They also bought out the butcher business formerly conducted by L.C.Cratt and ran it for several years On Oct.15th, 1917, the partnership was dissolved.Mr.Innes took Strath- Iynn Farms and the butcher shop while Mr.Swart acquired the dairy business and two farms east of Sim- coe which now comprise the weill- known Strathallan Farms.Mr.Swart moved the Sanitary Dairy to 20 Peel Street where it has remained ever since.In 1918 he installed a pasteurleer which he purchased from Fred Beau- pre, the same man who was recently stabbed by a pupil during his course of duties as principal of Iroquois High School.Changes and improvements were made in the building from time to time and today it boasts complete and modern dairv equipment, valued at not less than $25.000.The Simcoe Sanitary Daly has achieved renown for the healthy.nutritious quality of its milk.Mr, Swart is today owner of one of the finest herds of Ayrshire cattle in Canada.He started the herd in 1919 and since that time has bought purebred Ayrshires to the valuc of $43.000 and sold them to the extent of $44.- 000.His herd now comprises 90 head.Leading American buyers come Lo Simcoe to buy Swart Ayrshires and during the Imperial Conference, the herd was visited by outstanding British dairymen.The Swart herd his captured innumerable prizes and ribbons at all the leading cattle shows Probably the most noteworthy wins were the capture of Grand Champion award at the Royal Winter Fair in 1927 and of Junior Champion and Reserve Junior Champion in 1932 The owner's new office as head of the Canadian Ayrshire Breeders Association is no mean honour, as tlie Association has a membership of 1600.Thus it is an honour for Sin:i- coe and Norfolk as well as for himself that Mr.Swart has achieved presidential office.It is quite a distance back to those early days on Rowan Mills farms, but it was there that he learned the lesson of hard work which with his exceptional business ability has enabled him to attain such success.Mr.Swart is married and has three children, Dr.Howard Swart of tiie Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minn, Gor~ don and Madeleine at home.Franklin Centre Mrs.Roy Blair returned home Tuesday after spending the past week visiting her mother, Mrs.Grimes, Montreal.Mr.John Shovelin of Montreal, was the Sunday guest of the Misses Gordon.Mrs.Charles Dickenson is spending a few days with Mr.and

Stillness While Life is in Body Can you keep still?You will say, \u201cOf course.\u201d But try to keep absolutely still for a moment, and you will discover how difficult it is.While there is breath in the body, we can never be completely still.Some part of us is always on the move.At least the heart is beating.there is movement in the pulse, the eyelids twitch, When you come to think of it, this is rather remarkable, But some of us are more still than others.Those who have learned the art of relaxing are better able to keep still than those who are always fidgeting.Usually it is the more nervous type of individual who cannot be still, And if we do not practice it, we shall never learn the art.It is a great art\u2014this keeping still.Stillness of body comes from still- ress of mind.When happiness is yours, there will be a lovely stillness in your life\u2014~Exchange, Ormstown Village Annual Meeting St.Paul's United.\u2014 Despite most unfavourable weather and the icy

while, came across the room.\u201cMaybe if you'd lie down, honey,\u2019 she softly.\u201cyou'd feel better.You'd best do like the doctor says and try to just be quiet.\u201d Cherry shook her head.\u201cI couldn't Sarah.But don't bother about me.I will be all right.\u201d The older woman put her arms around the girl, \u201cWe've got to pray!\u201d she said fervently.\u201cIt's only the Lord who can help us now.We've got to pray he'll spare your mother, darling.\u201d Cherry's face seemed to have taken on a mask-like quality.\u201cYes,\u201d she | said as though she had not understood the words, \u201cpray.That's it.\u2019 Her voice had become a monotone.\u201cThat's what we have to do\u2014pray.\u201d She sank to the luxurious satin cushions of the chaise longue.Sarah regarded her uncertainly for a moment and then turned and left the room.For Cherry it was the beginning of a vigil that seemed endless.She sat amid surroundings that had once been as familiar as her own features | in the mirror.The room was done in rose and blue.The ivory-tinted furniture.That window looking out over the garden.This carpet.soft as down beneath her feet.All of it was exactly as it had been and yet everything was different.\u201cI'm to blame.\u201d the girl told her bitterly.\u201cIt's my fault.If mother dies I'm the one who'll be responsible!\u201d | The tears would not come now.| Cherry sat immobile as a statue.Once when she heard footsteps in the hall she arose and went to the door.IL was the nurse again, She put a finger to her lips and shook her head.Cherry returned io her seat.After 2 time she heard steps again and knew it was the doctor, Sunset came and then dusk The sky outside was darkening when someone entered the room.\u201cFather!\u201d Cherry exclaimed, half- rising.The man on the threshold said grimly, \u201cDr.Knowles is waiting.\u201d CHAPTER XXVI Cherry was on her feet now.The eager hope that had shone in her eyes vanished as quickly as it had appeared.Her father remained in the doorway.Not so much as a muscle seemed to change in that relentless face.\u201cDr.Knowles\u2014?\" Cherry began.\u201cHe's in the living room.We're to go there.\u201d They went down the stairs.Cherry just a little ahead.She did not lovk at her father again.Through the doorway of the living room she saw the doctor standing before the fireplace.There was a great bow! of roses on the table at the right.Cherry's mother had always kept flowers in that bowl.cutting and arranging them herself each morning.There was the basket where her mother kept the bit of sewing she liked to have handy for the hours before dinner.Nothing was changed and yet the whole room seemed empty now.Deserted.Cherry rushed forward.\u201cOh, Dr.Knowles, tell me!\u201d she cried.\u201cI can't bear this waiting.IT can't bear it! I've got to know\u2014!\" Dr.Knowles put an arm about the girl's shoulders.\u201cThere.there!\" he said soothingly.\u201cYou promised me you'd be brave and have contro! of yourself.We're not discouraged.Not in the least.We're making the biggest fight we know how.You must help us.\u201d He had known Cherry almost since babyhood, had seen her through the attack of chickenpox which.at 5.was her first illness.The girl buried her face in his shoulder.A moment later when she looked up she was dry- eyed.Walter Dixon's deep voice broke in He said crisply.\u201cHow is she.doctor?Has there been any change?\u201d The doctor nodded.\u201cMrs.Dixon has been resting.\u201d he said, \u201cand rest is what she needs above ail else.She slept for almost two hours this afternoon.She's awake now but we're hoping she'll drop off again before long.\u201d He turned to Cherry.\u201cWill you promise.\u201d he said firmly.\u201cthat if 1 let you see your mother for a few moments you won't become hysterical?Will you promise to go in quietly and say just a word or two and then leave?\" \u201cOh, yes, doctor\u2014I promise!\u201d \u201cWell, then\u201d Dr.Knowles considered, \u201cI think it might be a good idea, \u201cNothing must happen that could disturb her.You understand that?If she should suddeniv bec\"me aroused\u2014worried\u2014any slight emotional disturbance just now would be dangerous.On the other hana I think she'd be pleased to know you're here, Well?\" \u201cIT do exactly as you say.doctor.\u201d Cherry sald earnestly, \u201cI\"\u2014I'll be brave!\u201d The doctor looked across at the other man.\u201cI think you'd better come too, Walter,\u201d he said quietly.The three mounted the stairs and walked down the hall to Mrs.Dixon's room.A nurse\u2014not the one Cherry had seen before\u2014opened the door in answer to the doctor's light knock.\u201cShe's awake,\u201d the nurse whispered and stepped back for them to enter.A single lamp, heavily shaded, gave the only light in the room.The shades at the windows had been drawn and the furniture showed only as dark outlines casting black shad- ows, Against the opposite wall, just out of the lamplight, was the great white bed.The face on the pillow looked as colorless as the pillow slip.A tired face.Expressionless.The gray hair, drawn back severely, made the face seem old.One arm lay out over the covers.It was Dr Knowles who stepped forward.The tired eyes seemed to widen a trifle.\u201cSomeone to see you.\" he said quietly.\u201cI'm only going to let her stay a few moments.Cherry\u2014?\" The girl knelt at the bedside.Her two hands, so strong and young.slasped the mother's enfeebled one.\u201cMother! Oh, Mother!\u201d Cherry breathed the words as though they were a prayer.Her head bowed down against the covers.\u201cCherry!\u201d It was the barest whisper but both men heard it.The girl lifted her head.There were tears in her eyes but she was smiling.\u201cOh, mother, dear, you're going to get well now in a hurry! You must!\u201d A transformation seemed to have come over the mother's face.\u201cMy\u2014 little girl.\u201d she whispered.But she was not looking at Cherry, Her eycs had raised.They turned toward Walter Dixon, lingered pleadingly.\"Walter,\" she said slowly.The man bowed at the other side of the bed.He did not speak.Only the eyes that had seemed so grim and unrelenting a few minutes before were veiled by a thin mist, There was a moment of silence.Then, as though summoning supreme strength the woman went on waveringly: \u201cWalter\u2014forgive\u2014Cherry?\" Dixon's hand slid over the coverlet, It found his wife's.Then the heavier, darker fingers clasped Cherry's.It was one of those electric moments when the stillness seems alive with a thousand voices.The man's words broke the spell.\u201cIt's all right, Alice.\u201d he said huskily.\u201cEverything's going to be all right as soon as you're stronger.\u201d The nurse's starched uniform rustled in the background.Dr.Knowles stepped forward.\u201cYou'll have to say \u2018good-night\u201d now.\u201d he said with firmness.\u201cIt's time for Mrs.Dixon to be resting.\u201d For an instant Cherry's lips brushed her mother\u2019s hand.She clung to the fingers.then slowly released them.\u201cGood-night, mother,\u201d she said softly as she rose, \u201cI'll be here in the morning.\u201d Dixon did not speak again.The two men and the girl filed out of the room, In the hall with the door closed behind them Dr.Knowles fumbled for his watch found it and announced hurriedly.\u201cWell.I'll have to be off.I'll telephone in an hour or two.Sleep is what she needs now.If she can get that it's a big gain.Good night.Cherry.Good night.Walter!\" The doctor's broad shoulders disappeared down the stairway.Cherry raised her eyes timidly to meet her father's, Suddenly the girl was in his arms.her face buried against his coat.and she was sobbing desperate- 3 He tried to quiet her.Cherry's shoulders rose and sank convulsively.\u201cDon't!\u201d Dixon said.\u201cYou musn't cry this way.Your mother may hear vou.\u201d \u201cIt's\u2014my brokenly.this!\" Dixon's arm tightened about his daughter.\u201cThere's no use saying \u201cuch things.\u201d he told her heavily, \u201cOr hinking them.We've all made mis- akes.\u201d \u201cI can\u2019t help it!\u201d Cheryy protested.\u2018Oh if anything should happen\u2014!\" \u201cKnowles says she has a chance, It all depends on these next few days.\u201d The girl did not answer.Her sobbing continued less violently.Dixor* natted her shoulders.It was as near a caress as Cherry could remember having received from her father.\u201cI think you'd better spend the night here.\u201d he told her.\u201cThe nurse will let us know if there's any change.Now.Cherry.you must pull vourself together\u2014!\" She raised her head and the tremulous lips made an effort at steadiness.For an instant Cherry's eyes met her father's.Neither spoke but \u2018n that instant each understood the other, Dixon went downstairs and Cherry returned to her bedroom.She saw that Sarah had laid out a dainty nightgown and dressing robe.The light from the dressing table fell on rose satin cushions, throwing them into dazzling brilllance.There was a soft breeze stirring the curtain gently.The girl paused.Was it real or all some horrible nightmare?Here she fault!\u201d the girl moaned \u201cIt's\u2014my fault she's like swered, He said, yes, was in her own room.Had she ever been away?Could it be true that her mother lay in that bed in a room down the hall as though undecided between life and death?Cherry was swept by an impulse she had not known since childhood.She crossed the room, knelt at the side of the bed and, pressing the palms of her two hands together, began to pray.When Sarah entered ten minutes later the girl was standing before the open window, Sarah carried a tray.\u201cYou must eat something,\u201d she urged soothingly.\u201cYou know you can't be makin\u2019 yourself sick.\u201d \u201cI don't want to eat.\u201d Cherry wearily.However she sat down in the big chair before which Sarah had drawn a small table and set down the tray.There was hot broth, a salad and tea.The food was appetizing and Cherry ate more than she had expected to.Presently she pushed the tray away.\u201cI'll have to telephone,\u201d she said.\u201cI'm going to stay here tonight.\u201d She called the number of the apartment and after a time Dan an- he had found her note.Was her mother any better?He hopes she would be soon.A few more words and the conversation was at an end.Sarah bustled about getting the room ready for the night.Ther: was the sound of water running in the bathtub and then Sarah saying, \u201cYour bath, Miss Cherry.\u201d The girl undressed and bathed mechanically, Before she got into bed the nurse tapped at the door.\u201cYour mother's dropped asleep again.\u201d she said.\u201cI thought you'd like to know.\u201d \u2018Docs that mean\u2014?\u201d \u201cIt's a good sign, I've just talked to the doctor and he was pleased.\u201d The nurse departed.Cherry turned out the light and slipped between the fresh linen sheets.The bed was as soft as down.There was no sound but the faint rustling of the trees outside the window.The breeze was fresh and comforting.Cherry closed her eyes and tried to sleep but the silence of the house scemed ominous.She repeated the doctor's reassurances, \u201cShe must get well!\" she told herself.\u201cShe's going to get well!\u201d But in spite of this insistance the girl did not sleep, She turned and tessed and finally gave up the effort to stare open-eyed at the ceiling.She was still awake hours latex when there came a knolL at the door.It was the nurse again.\u201cYour mother\u201d she explained hastily.\u201cI think you'd better come!\" CHAPTER XXVII The single lamp was still burning in the big room.Cherry hurried to the bedside.She was clutching a robe about her.\u2018Im here.mother.\u201d she said eagerly.\u201cYou wanted me?\" The woman on the pillow raised her eyes.They were brown eyes, so much like Cherry's.They looked dark now against the pale face.\u201cMy\u2014Ilittle\u2014girl,\u201d Mrs.Dixon said gently.\u201cCherry\u2014come here beside me.\u201d The girl knelt at the side of the bed.\u201cWhat is it mother?\u201d she asked.\u201cI'll do anything\u2014\" The sick woman smiled.She raised one slim hand to touch the girl's Lair.\u201cCherry,\u201d she went on slowly, \u201cI'm so giad you've come back.You musn\u2018t misjudge your father, dear I want to know\u2014you're going to be friends.\u201d \u201cOf course I don't misjudge him, mother, I know Low he feels.But everything is going to be all right now.He said so!\u201d For an instant happiness seemed to light the pallid cheeks.\u201cHe sald\u2014 that?\u201d she repeated.\u201cOh, I'm so gad!\u201d The words seemed to take the woman\u2019s last bit of strength.Her eyes closed almost instantly in sleep, She kad been clinging to Cherry's hand but now the fingers loosened.The rise and fall of her breathing came regularly.Cherry knelt there for a long while.Mrs.Dixon s'ept as peacefully as a child.Presently the nurse put a hand on the girl's arm and motioned for her to rise.Cherry realized for the first time that she was shivering.The night air had grown colder and her dressing gown had slipped down {rom her shoulder.She went down the corridor to her said LEDUC & PRIEUR Ltée Valleyfield, Que.Ready-to-Wear Gar | ments for Ladies and Gents.Tailoring, Dress- ! | | | Specialty: | making and Millinery own.room and got into bed.Within five minutes she was asleep.Despite Dr.Knowles\u2019 cheerful predictions three days passed before he gave the definite word that Mrs.Dixon had passed the crisis in her illness.Little by liftle her strength returned.There were times during those three days when the doctor's calls stretched out over several hours.\u2018There were times of anxiety for everyone in the household.Walter Dixon did not go to his office.He remained in his own room or downstairs in the study.Cherry and her father met for meals that were almost silent, the food set before them and taken away scarcely tasted.Father and daughter waited nervously outside the door of the upstairs bedroom for the brief bulletins the nurse could bring.Each day Cherry telephoned to Dan.She stayed on at her parents\u2019 Lome, making one hasty trip to the apartment for clothing.Pinky, the kitten, had been quartered upstairs with Dixie Shannon.The world seemed to have stopped in its regular orbit.Everything centered about the battle being waged in that upstairs bedroom.Then on the morning of the fourth day Dr.Knowles greeted the

She must remember that she was à poor man's wife now.No more breakfasts served to her in bed.No more turning to Sarah or Martha for everything she wanted done.\u201cAnd I'm glad of it!\" Cherry told herself earnestly.\u201cIt's going to be good to be home.Oh, it's going to be wonderful!\" She thought that she meant it.Martin let her out of the car before the library steps.It was the place where Cherry and Dan had met so often in the days when they were living at the hotel.The chauffeur closed the door after her, touched his cap and drove away.Dan was nowhere in sight but Cherry was not disturbed.She had learned to expect him to be late.A boy in knee trousers was selling flowers from a basket farther down the street.Cherry strolled toward him.selected a rose to fasten to her blouse and gave him a quarter for it.\u201cHere's your change, lady.\u201d the boy began as Cherry moved away.She smiled, told him to keep the coin.Contain pure arrowroot; always fresh; their quality is rigidly maintained.PONTIAC 74 economy sear gives you added features \u2026.lower prices !

attention of one hundred Canadian Club members for nearly two hours, Mrs.Millicent MacKinnon, Toronto, gave a most illuminating address on India, Friday evening in Kamloops, B.C.An Indian princess in her own right and the only woman member of the Indian council, Mrs.MacKin- non dealt in a highly interesting manner with India\u2019s history and problems; the curse of creeds and castes of that great race, referring particularly to British rule there and the Nationalist movement sponsored by Gandhi.She paid many warm tributes to the work of medical missionaries, and expressed the conviction that some day India would be a self-governing unit.Unusual Personage The great speaker possessed a commanding personality herself and there was an added touch of color to the dinner gathering by the presence of a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, in full uniform, who was acting as official escort to Mrs.MacKinnon in this district.The great Asiatic sub-continent under British rule has profited and prospered.Its economic and social conditions have been touched by the light of western policy.Yet at the present time a strong nationalist movement, guided by the paradoxical \u2018Mr Saint\u201d Gandhi, would overthrow this British superintendency.According to Mrs, MacKinnon the consequences of such a development, at present, would be disastrous.Order would be replaced by a chaos which would ensue in the struggle for political dominance by different groups of natives.all surcharged with religious feeling which finds its root deep in the past.The Untouchables The history of India was reviewed extensively, the various component parts of the population broadly dealt with and explained.The aborigines, of Dravidian origin, were held in serfdom after the first great invasion, by Aryans, the speaker sald, but a wide barrier was set between them and their conquerors to prevent any racial intermixing, and from these people have sprung the hordes of \u201cuntouchables\u201d who are adding so much to the problems presented to Indian politicians today.The caste system was established, beginning with the two divisions of Brahman and serf.and developed by addition and subdivision until now there are no less than 2300 castes keeping themselves religiously apart, each from each.These are the Hindus, with their crowded pantheon and deities, of whom the terrible Kali, goddess of blood and destruction.is the most worshipped.Waves of Conguest By the same gateway of the Khyber Pass, in the northern mountains, came in their turn, other waves of conquest.The Sikhs took their share in the ruling of India, and the Moslems followed.Under one or other of these heads come the main divisions of the peoples of India, and the Hindu idol-worshipper has ever been at bitter enmity with the idol-smashing Moslem, who worships the one true God and believes in the equality of man.The Sikhs are not naturally idol-worshippers, but they are a military people.They worship the sacred sword and they have accepted the cult of \u201cKali the Terrible.\u201d They are a minority, and they are willing to side with whichever party seems likely to help them best in the task of grinding their own axe.Only a neutral can keep order amid such surroundings, Mrs.MacKinnon declared, and this power has hitherto been the British government.The British came, not as conquerors through the Khyber, but as traders, and they gradually brought order out f the chaos which they found existing everywhere, Mrs.MacKinnon instanced many advantages which have accrued to India through British rule.Unbellevable Superstition Progress against the caste system, deeply rooted in religious belief, must necessarily be slow, stressed Speaker, As an example of the difficulties to be overcome, a Brahman would be defiled if he passed nearer than the prescribed distance of a 30, 50 or 60-foot untouchable and would have to be cleansed by religious processes before he could be received in His own home.If the shadow of an untouchable fell on him he was defiled, or if the shadow fell on food it was fouled and had to be thrown out.But it didn't matter what germs or Low many million of flies were on the food.Supplying water for domestic purposes was another problem to the British because an untouchable was not allowed to use the same well as kigher castes ,and if he should be away from home it was almost impossible for him to get water at all.Yet, thousands of untouchables worked on the railroads and apparently the cap and uniform made human beings of them for the Brahman did not consider himseif defiled-on handing over the fare and otherwise transacting necessary business.Their Sacred River It is little wonder, perhaps, that the Ganges is the sacred river of India.This stream carries away the sewage of great areas, the ashes of the country's dead are cast upon its waters, corpses of priests and also of lepers find a last resting place in its bosom, the carcases of dead cows, a sacred animal, are carried away by its flow: and yet the water of the Ganges remains chemically pure, a condition scientists have been so far unable to explain.Water three feet from the mouth of a sewer has been examined and found to be uncontaminated in any way.Beneficent Rule The British have developed India's natural resources such as mines, oil wells, forests, and agriculture, she said, in a manner that had never been approached before.The British have introduced machinery and set up mills, some of which, as in the steel industry, are the largest in the world, and many of which are owned and managed by natives who have beer taught by the British.They have dug wonderful canals and installed vast irrigation projects, by which thirty million acres of desert have been made productive, and the old ever-recurring famines have been completely stopped in many parts.They have built roads and established 42,000 miles of railway over which transit is the cheapest in the world.They have installed 4.000 hospitals, where millions of patients receive free treatment annually, and built 200,000 schools, apart from mission schools.They have set up banks for the people, where the small farmer can be protected from his arch enemy, the bania., or village moneylender.and also a species of \u201cwheat bank.\u201d But Justice Prevails But the greatest of all British gifts has been equal justice, the application of the samc law to white or brown man; Brahman or Untouchable; Hindu.Moslem, \u2018Sikh, or British.The lecturer paid a wonderful tribute to the incalcuiable value of the work done by medical missionaries, who are alleviating the suffering in the zenanas, and who can get into touch with and influence the women of India, a great class who are at present only two per cent literate, but many of whom are struggling for emancipation and education.Burning of widows was still common in India, and perhaps that was better than living the unspeakable life of a widow, thought Mrs.Mac- Kinnon.There were 100,000 widows under 10 years of age and 40,000,000 under 18.Here again the medical missionaries were doing a wonderful work.Filthy Start in Life When a woman was about to become a mother she was considered \u201cunclean\u201d and placed in a room on a pile of filthy rags, because she was not worth anything more, and with- Wabasso Prints 500 yds.of

often.The new-born babe was placed on a heap of ashes and cow-dung in the corner of the room before it was ever washed, in order to \u201ckeep the evil eye off.\u201d The wonder was that either mother or the child ever lived.To overcome the opposition of the dhais the British government paid them to do certain things under the supervision of medical missionaries, and although they did not realize it, the dhais were also learning.Out of gratitude both husband and wife would call on the medical missionary in times of trouble.Through the medical missionaries and the women lay the greatest hope.Sanitation as it is known in western countries did not exist and therefore an\u2019 untouchable was necessarily employed in every household.It had been said of Gandhi that he must be a.wonderful man because he had an untouchable in his employ; but that was no credit to him as the untouchable simply had to be employed to carry out the necessary sanitation; no one else would do it.Mrs.MacKinnon stated very strongly her antagonism to the agitation Gandhi had fomented in India, and stressed what she termed many inconsistencies of this apostle of nonviolence.Master Publicist Gandhi was a master publicist, declared the speaker.He travelled on foot or by Ford for publicity purposes, but he also used a Rolls-Royce.He decried the use of machinery and his spinning wheel was famous the world over.But inconsistently his spinning wheel was machine made of the collapsible type, a western product and running on ball bearings.He represented himself as the saviour of thie people and instructed them not to pay taxes, but strange to say Gandhi himself \u2018had never missed a tax payment, declared Mrs.MacKinnon.He urged non-violence but at the same time he played on the pasisons of the masses in such a way that violence was sure to follow.As a result of his propaganda \u201chell had been let loose\u201d and the atrocities committed were worse than anything in the Indian mutiny.Accused of responsibility Gandhi said, \u201cYou can't blame me; I fasted five days and God has forgiven me.\u201d He blamed the railways for carrying bubonic plague yet his religion will not permit the killing of rats, the true carriers of the plague.and whose damage amounts annually to enormous sums.Britain has been fostering all kinds of cottage industries, yet Gandhi urges spinning which has never been extensively practised in India.Gandhi's doctrine of non-resistance said that a woman should not defend herself against assault; and many other inconsistencies were revealed by the speaker.He was combining religion and politics with disastrous results.He had only 30.000 true followers and did not represent India at all.\u201cMurder Club\u201d A new terrorist movement has lately started; and a \u201cmurder club\u201d has been formed to which women members are invited and urged to become followers of Charlotte Corday.The lecturer has suffered personally by the assassination of a brother-in-law and an attempt upon the life of her sister.who is engaged on the largest newspaper in India, which has on occasions exposed the nationalist movement.She was saved once by mistaken identity when her companion was stabbed.and again when she awoke and snapped on the light her assailant, who had the bared knife raised, fled.That Gandhi's party was backed by the Soviet was the statement made hy Mrs.MacKinnon.and further the Soviet had 60,000 \u201cred coats\u201d at the northern boundaries just awaiting a chance to get in.In times of boycott pickets were paid to obstruct traffic and trade; it was just a business to them and they earned their livelihood by it without thought of the real matter back of the struggle.Not Police Driven Mrs.MacKinnon mentioned that the much-talked-of Indian police, who were supposed in some quarters to terrorize the natives of India were in the proportion of one to every 2.- 000 inhabitants, as against Toronto's rate of one for every 500; and that the military occupation is represented by one soldier to each 30 square miles of territory.Meanwhile, a handful of English \u201cTommies\u201d keep guard at the Khyber.The English

way onions may be served.A few are mentioned here: Too Strong Flavor If you do not like the strong, flavor of raw onions hot water can be pour: ed &ver them and drained off.The result is a mild, crisp onion.One- half cup chopped raw onion added tc two cups of cottage cheese gives a different flavor to the cheese.The onions can be added to cream cheese but the combination is hard to serve except in sandwiches.Finely chopped raw onion combines well with mashed or browned potatoes.Rings or slices of raw onion can be dipped in this batter and fried in deep fat They then might be served as a garnish for mea! or as an extra vegetable dish.Cranberry or currant je.\u2019 may be served with the onion rings.Plain boiled onions are good but many times they are not properly prepared.If they are dark and strong flavored they are not appetizing.Onions lose their strong flavor in cooking.The unpleasant flavor appearing in cooked onions sometimes is due to cooking them in a closed vessel.They should never be cooked in a steam pressure cooker.The best flavor is preserved by cooking them until tender or slightly crisp in a large amount of rapidly boiling water in an open kettle.Boiled onions are improved by a teaspoon of butter, grated cheese or both.Boiled onions have a different flavor if cooked in rich beef stock or tomato juice.The stock may be thickened, 1 tablespoon of flour to a cup of stock and served with the onions over brown buttered toast or hot biscuit.Filled With Meat Onion may be baked whole or the centres may be removed, chopped with a small amount of meat and returned to the shell.If onions are baked they should be in an open pan with sufficient liquid to keep them {rom becoming overcooked.Onions may be creamed.Four cups are boiled until tender.They are drained and one cup of cream or milk with one tablespoon of flour and 1: teaspoon salt is added.After cooking ten minutes they are served as an extra vegetable or over buttered browned toast.One cup of ground meat.preferably ham.dried beef or bacon may be added to creamed onions just before serving.The onions might be alternated in a baking dish with ground meat.topped with buttered crumbs and baked.American Engineers at Work on Big Projects To read the names of the places where American engineers have been or are carrying on great projects is like reading at random through the index of a modern atlas.The ancient city of Lublin, Poland.was in the Middle ages a flourishing.wealthy municipality seeking to keep abreast of its times.In order to supply its people with needed conveniences, contracts were entered into with its master-men calling for the laying of water pipes.These ancient pipes were made of logs and the water was forced through them by the use of a force wheel.On an ancient parchment, written in Latin in 1506, there is a contract between the city authorities and one Jan Rurmistrz, calling for the construction of the pipes and their laying.That such methods were used, American engineers discovered when putting into operation the first modern waterworks.Some of the pipes were uncovered, ancient tunnels were cut across.Some of these tunnels were once used as secret means of escape during the numerous wars and rebellions.Even treasure was unearthed.Digging in the streets of Athens to install sanitary systems, funeral urns were found of the year 300 B.C.Also a very old sarcophagus was noted.Parish of Tres St.Sacrement PUBLIC NOTICE All taxes are now past due and must be paid, if it is impossible to pay in full, kindly pay some on account on or

survive in European countries.One of these is the practice at Kyritz, Germany, of distributing hot rolls on the anniversary of the capture of a notorious robber.The bandit terrorized the countryside at one period of the Middle ages.He and his men would accost any traveler who appeared worth robbing, and at times descend upon towns to carry off booty and hostages.Then they w8uld take to the hills, where their knowledge enabled them to defy pursuers.After slipping away many times he was finally run down and captured.In celebration of the event the lord who ruled that particular section of the country gave away loaves of bread to all his serfs and vassals.The custom never has died out.Ear Coloring an Index of Health in Children Experts in child welfare research advise parents to look at their children's ears for an indication of the general state of their health.The ears, it is revealed, indicate the condition of the child's blood about as well as any known scientific test.Here's the secret, as stated in nonscientific terms by Nell B.Nichols of the Woman's Home Companion: \u201cWhen the cars are pink, the child has a goodly amount of hemoglobin in his blood.If they are pale and colorless, action is in order.The doctor's opinion must be sought and meals will contain an abundance of green leafy vegetables, egg yolk, red meats, the dark meat of poultry and liver.Milk has been considered low in iron, and unfairly so, for the comparatively small amount that it has is in a pure form which is readily used by the body.\u201d Taxes, Arrears \"Having examined the vouchers
