to our South Shore people for a good many years past, and whilst on various occasions there have been great hopes that something would be done in this matter, nothing has really developed.The question had, how- evr, had been treated as one of interest to the South Shore only.The fire on Vietoria Bridge on August 22nd brought to the attention of various organizations in the city o Montreal, the fact that they were absolutely dependent upon it as the only means of access from the city for all traffic east bound and south bound and for all to the city from the same directions.A meeting was called by the South Shore Board of Trade on August 27th, 1920, to consider what action should be taken in view of the situation existing at that time.It was decided that the best course to follow was to try and get the support of the Montreal organizations to a movement which would be sufficiently strong to impress the Government with the necessity of something being done.A small committee was appointed to work out the details, and atter a number of meetings of the committee, a joint meeting was called in the Board of Trade Building, at which were represented: The Montreal Board of Trade, Chambre de Commerce, The Automobile Club of Canada, The Manufacturers Association and the South Shore Board of Trade.The situation was brought before this meeting by the South Shore Board of Trade, as a result of which it was decided that the need of a new bridge was basolutely an immediate necessity to the City of Montreal, as the risk now being taken of having all communications destroyed in the event of another fire on Victoria Bridge, committee was then formed representing the various organizations of traffic .coming.farmers which Mr.W.B.Ramsay, chairman ' of the Harbour Committee of the Board of Trade, was elected chairman, and it was decided that the first move to make was to find out from the Harbour Commissioners their position in the maîter.A meeting was, therefore, held with the Harbour Commissioners, and at which Mr.W.G.Ross, chairman ot the Commissioners, stated that the Harbour Commissioners had plans for a new bridge, running from the foot of McGill street to Montreal South, and were ready to build the bridge providing the Government would advance the money, authorizing them to charge such tolls as might be reasonable for traffic crossing the bridge, and also tu give them control of the locke at the entrance to the Lachine Canal, They also expressed a willingness to go to Ottawa and lay their plans before the Government, or do anything in their power which would facilitate the construction of the bridge at a very early date.It was, however, decided at this meeting, that before going to Ottawa, the matter should be brought before the Administration Commission of the city of Montreal in an endeavour tou gain their support to the proposition.A meeting was, therefore, arranged with the Administration Commission for Friday, October 29th, which was headed by Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, E.W.Beatty, Sir Vincent Meredith and other influential citizens of the city of Montreal.The object of the deputation was briefly explained to the Administration Commission by Sir Thomas Shaughnessy and Mr.W.B.Ramsay, after which Mr.Decary, chairman of the Administration Commission, stated that he absolutely concurred in the thought that the bridge was an absolute necessity and so far as the city of Montreal was concerned, they were prepared to give every assistance possible, and the Administration Commission would be willing to go to Ottawa as part of any committee which might be appointed for this purpose.This is the position up to the present time.A deputation to go to Ottawa will be arranged for in the very near future.agree ALL CANADA I» being affected by

had prepared a most excel lent dinner.About fortyfive were present.\u2018 Folowing the repagt which was a credit to those who had prepared it, and the singing of the National Anthem, the President, M.M.Me Naughton, called on Mayor Lang, who extended the welcome of the town to those present and hoped there would be many other such gatherings in Ormstown.; Mr.D.H.Brown replied and told Une of his famous stories.© Mr.J.A.Robb, M.P., complimented -' the ladies and attributed much ef the success of the farmers to their wives and daughters.He was glad the Society was succeeding and that, the farmers in the district had gNeh™ - model farms; farms which \u201cwere schools for the younger generation.He thought no district was so févor-ÿ ably situated with regard to markets; and compared a few of tue ; cat vantages with those of tne West.Heil advised the young men to 13) 6h to\" the old homesteads in preférence to: looking to far away fields.He made 4 brief reference to the Armistiqe,

inspire confidence and bring happi- | ness and contentment throughout Canada.CR en 2 Mr.A.Philps, M.L.A, said the} farmers in this «istrict were making money.He was glad they were for ! they deserved

pressed pleasure at being present.Mr.Arch.Muir, Jr., considered a mistake had been made when they did not invite the farmers\u2019 wives to be present.(Hear! Hear!) He was not a member of the Holstein Association but was an admirer of the breed and after reference to Mr.Neil Sangster's father, who had imported to the early pioneers, .he turned his attention to the problem of the coming generation who, he said, did not do their duty when they did not marry.He divided the young men into four classes, which diversions caused much laughter.He lamented the passing of homesteads into other hands and advised the young men not to he afraid to start a home, Mr.Neil Sangster laid the blame for the non presence of the ladies at the feet of two old bachelors and thanked the ladles for preparing sucht a creditable banquet.Referring to the Holstein-Fresian Association, he said it was the largest of its kind in Canada, having more members than all the rest combined and more members.Last year they built an office which cost them $39,000 and it was paid for.Referring to the Canadian |Ayrsliire Review, he read a section and made some disparaging remarks.He thought the local breeders should go in more for R.O.P.tests and advised farmers to be wary of get-rich- guick schemes, stating that he knew a man who bought a cow for $125, made $500 out of her and invested it in Angus Park real estate, (Laughter) Had that man invested in another cow, he would have been that much further ahead.It was bad policy to invest in outside business instead of in your own.Mr.M.M.McNaughton advocated a dance after the next banquet.Mr.W.L.Carr had enjoyed the speeches and said it was good advice to stick to the farms and make the most of your opportunities.He believed the farmers must get rid of the idea that they must get up before daylight and work until dark carry ing on his daily grind in a sort of stupor.There were men now trying to find a better way and he believed they would succeed.There was no use of a man thinking he could buy a farm, equip it and pay for it in a lifetime by simply using his hands.The farms of today are the product of wo or three generations of toil.We have many object lessons in the district of both success and failure and when a man to succeed must have three or four of a family to labor with him without getting sufficient pay, there is something wrong.The rewards do not come to those who labor and many farmers are little better than double shift day slaves.He referrea to .tho Scotch wr ofa | bargained as 54 |'selt is à long ai Dé] mae immigrants waëbuilt up the country anu their instituffons and to the success of the rer Canadians who are lucky eno to have farms near them.He thowght the way the French picke up the English language was :QRe of their most commendable traily, and he is sensible enough to have} iris sons settle down at an early égp, while the Scotch farmer did mofirealize his sons were grawn up until they were grey.We don't give thei their freedom until they leavg red If we woula take a leaf out of 4 Frenchman's book and induce off gons to marry at 20, whether « wagtave daughters or not, 4° and \u201cheégam api of tictitious obliga- _tions, we Wi uy, make progress.Anon ss lus we are not learning the Frefich latffuiage.We are narrow and prejudicediin this respect and it is regrettaliié #ifor if we spoke their language, muchfl of the race antagon- | jam waula 2 pigexist.It is mot sur- orig wor ad suspicious of one enn Rate} ng to the Milk Pro- | dudes \u2018 Aésocidhon, he said it was \u2018\u2018ondy :in its\u2019 Imfaficy.It took the New Yor i-Leaguo.¥) years to make progress.\u2018The ddjlers now know the farmers have 4h organization and a \u201ccity office whire they can talk \u201cbpsiness and tir respect for us has \u2018grown afcordini y.Six months ago : agonistic, today they ask us \u2018to recdfhmend shippers and there are now ¥mly three large concerns with whol \u2018we are at variance.if} we ever made was that time they were gfonistic.This Fall \u2018year.Mr.\" Care as listened to with marked atten and received de- \u2018served applause Mt.Jag, 'Witiflr was pleased he \u201c was à fartioraff@;glad he had a good \u201cherd of Holgteits He thought one \u201creason why .# ufg men left the farms \u201cWas becausd\u2019y'thpir fathers spoke dis- | phraginglÿ -

steamers.frei.J.Vv.Conroy, District Secretary of the G.W.V.A.reports there are 8000 returned soldiers in Toronto who are out of work.\u2014 \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 A haul estimated at over a million dollars was made by robbers from mail trains running from the San Francisco Mint to the Treasury at Washington.The robbers made their get away near Omaha.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 The Jeague of Nations are now in session at Geneva.Forty-one countries are represented.The attitude toward the United States {is that the League of Nations must go whether the United States comes in or not, but that it must be developed, in & way that will not close the door tor entry when means are found to make that possible.- mme Lord Atholstan contributed »100,000 to McGill.J The McGill campaign to raise tive million dollars is making good pro- gress and has reached over thres unallions, The situation in Ireland appears t& be improving.The Sinn Fein are being treated coldiy by the population and extremists are not being ilsiened to with ardor.With the signing of peace terms with Poland, the Russian Bolshevik armies have been able to concentrate their strength in the South against the White army of General Wrangel, the Anti-Bolshevik leader who had collected a large army in and around Sebastapool.Backed up by efficient artillery and acting under what appears to be the strategy and tactics of a German General.they have by massed formations broken the \u2018White lines and the Anti-Bolshevik armies are reported to be disorganized and in flight.The cost of the assault to the Reds is estimated at 30,000 killed.The losses of the White Army are not known, probably in the neighborhood of 50,000.e\u2014\u2014 The Canadian Red Cross Society in this Provinc is asking for contributions toward the British Empire effort to raise ten million dollars for the starving and diseased cirildren in Europe Undoubtedly the whole econofit world is disturbed by the frightful condition of starvation and disease in Southern Europe and Asia.Canadian comuercial life is at present indirectly concerned, but One cannot doubt that if disease among these people is not checked and destroyed, the result will be very direct and harmful to all our activities in all sections of the North American continent.Besides this there remains the appeal to which no true Canadian can turn a deaf ear.We are \u201cour brothers\u2019 keepers, regardless of nationality, color or religion.There will be no personal canvass in this effort.The Churches and newspapers being the only medium used in reaching the people.President Beattle of the C.P.R.has sent out an eloquent commendation, which reads: The mere fact that eleven mil lion fatferless children in Europe are in danger of death from starvation and disease is sutely sufficient to justify this appeal on their be half to the charitable disposed people of Canada, even though there may be many other calls of local interest.The administration of the relief funds fs in the hands of experienced officials of the British Empire War Relief Fund, acting in Canada through the Agency of the Canadian Red Cross Society, which vouches for conditions of extreme necessity, and the comparatively small sum asked of Canada is only part of a worldwide contribution.I feel sure that Canadians will respond with their accustomed generosity.It behooves all our people to raliy to the support of this call and give a little of their substance that the lives of millions may be saved and and that the principle of the brotherhood ef man, should be something more than a flippant phrase.\u2014\u2014\u2014 in the Farmers\u2019 Movement to se cure better representation at Uttawa, the Manufacturers\u2019 Association and Leaders of Conservative party see a danger that their privileges in the way of protection may be reduced, and through the newspapers and societies\u2019 which they control, they are advocating the advantages of Protection.It is perfecly natural that they should wish to continue and \u2018enlarge on any policy which is of any benefit to them and no one denies that a policy of High Protection is a benefit to Canadian Indus tries in so far as the owners are concerned.And it Is also to their advantage to keep wages as low as possible and keep the price of produce down.They have just as much right to look upon the Farmers\u2019 Movement as à menace as the Farmers have to look upon their move for high protection &s a menace.But the farmer 1 | who is influenced by their arguments is taking a kick at his own interests.The tariff as it exists is an unfair institution which is neither square wor honest.It takes money from mechanics, labourers, and farmers and gives to manulaccurers.It ihe government receiveu all the revenue collected by tlie customs officers it would not be so bad but from every dollar the government gets the Canadian manufacturer takes his share.For instance, a McLaugblin- rsuick automobile on the American side costs about $2100.The same cur in Canada with perhaps $300 improvements costs $2,995.If you purchase an American car and pay the duty the Government gets $1208.55 in duties.If you buy a Canadian car the manufacturer gets $595 extra.One needs to stretch his imagination considerably to see why it costs $595 more in Canada to manufacture an automobile than in the United States.The same applies to hundreds of articles much more necessary than automobiles and the burden falls heaviest on the poor and the rural sections.Canada needs revenue to pay her war debts but surely a more honest system can be found than the one used at present which in its application takes money from one class and gives it to an other while the Government gets but a share.The farmers, mechanics and labourers have as much right as the manufacturers to have a representation at Ottawa and only by an equal representation will they be able to command respect and receive honest treatment and a square deal.rtm: Now that the Republican is in power, a faction within its ranks demands that it enter the League of Nations and to this challenge made by Elihu Root, Hurst, Bora and Johnston rise in protest.The party pawned the good name of the United States for election purposes, it now remains to be seen if Root, his followers and the citizens who believed they would enter the league anyway will fare.They deserve to fail and be disgraced, but for the good of humanity and the future peace of the world we hope they succeed.\u2014\u2014 50 YEARS AGO Nothing eventful has happened arounN| Paris.The Prussians still have it surrounded and people can get neither in nor out.Provisions are not sufficient to last another four weeks.Turkeys sell at 7c per

At a meeting of the Board of Directors of Huntingdon Academy held on Saturday, Nov.12th, James McGregor was appointed Principal; Isabella McGarvey, first assistant; Adelaide Pease, second assistant.Farmers in the burned area around Ottawa are working hard to build up their losses.Some have entered into a partnership whereby they use one team to draw stuff during the winter and send the rest of the horses to the shanties where they will earn enough to keep them from Spring until the new crop is ready.rd ORMSTOWN The Thank Offering meeting of the Women's Missionary Society was held in McDougall Hall on the evening of Nov.9th.Rev.D.N.Coburn presided and introduced Rev.J.R.Dobson of St.Giles Church, Montreal, who was the speaker of the evening, and made a forceful appeal for missions, taking as his text, \u201cYe are the salt of the earth.\u201d The Mission Band repeated the \u201cPageant of India\u201d which they had presented at their own Thank Offering meeting in September, over thirty young people taking part in this Pageant.Miss McCormick sang a solo, \u201cLead Thou Me On.\u201d The Thank Offering received to date amounts to $130.28.While driving home from the village on Tuesday morning, David Forrester saw two automobiles approaching him at a very fast rate of speed and while pulling off the road to allow tnem to pass, another machine coming up from behind crashed into the rear of his wagon, throwing wagon, horse and Mr.Forrester into the ditch.Mr.For- rester was stunned and lay unconscious on the road and for some time after being carried into the home of Mr.F.N.Williams, opposite whose house the\u2019accident occurred.On the arrival of the doctor, he pronounced no bones broken but that very severe bruises had been sustained.The milk wagon was almost a complete wreck.The horse ran away, being caught a mile further down the road.In the excitement, the parties who ran into Mr.Forrester got away without the number of their car being taken, getting away as soon as pot- sible after the accident.Auto drivers of this kind should be severely dealt with by law.Inspector Parker visited the Academy on Thursday of last week and viewed the Foot-Ball match between Ormstown and Huntingdon Academy scholars, The game was won by Huntingdon by two scores to one.We understand the Inspector demands certain improvements to the Academy if the Government Grant of $800 is to be continued, In the interests of the scholars and the community, the commission should see to if that the improvemants asked for are made, / THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER.HOWICK reparations on a grand scale .re being made for the unveiling of the monument at Riverfield in memory of the young men of that district including chiefly members or adherents of Riverfield Presbyterian Church, who lost their lives in defense of their country.The celebration twill take place on the 26th inst.when soveral eminent military and political leaders will be present.Rev, 8, A, Woods, the previous pastor of the church, who inaugurated the scheme, ig expected to be present and take an important part in conducting the program.The base for the imposing monument is in position on an «levated mound so that the structure will face the angle of the corner in a conspicuous position.This corner is a portion of the old school ground, the school buildings having been moved to a lot on the opposite side of the south road leading to the bridge.Petty thefts are frequent in this vicinity, religious buildings being favourite objects of attack, Uver six dollars were stolen the other night from the i.C.Church.A bigger haul could have been made just across the road as the Bank of Commerce building is close to the church.There have been several nights of severe frost but grazing and plowing have not yet been checked.Mr.Dunn has again done it and the village is without electric lights.flowever, this could not be avoided as he had to close down in order to instal a more powerful water wheel, which probably will provide better service in the future and prevent the Spring break-up from weakening the power.Mr.Hector Gordon and family vacated his residence this week and leaves for the States at once.The community aoes not like to see Mr.Gordon's large family leaving Canada to become citizens of another country.Ir tr, RIVERFIELD = The Women's Missionary Society held their regular meeting for November in Knox Church, Howick, on Tuesday afternoon, Nov.16th.Owing to absence of the President, Mrs.Ballantyne, Mrs, Jas.McKell occupied the chair.Mrs.John Currie ;

R.W.Blair, the contractor, with Robert : Rennie as third man.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 BEAUHARNOIS The annual meeting of the St.Lawrence Men's Social Club was held in the Club Rooms on Saturday evening.The following were electad officers for the ensuing year: Pres, Mr.F.S.Reay; Sec.Treas., Mr.J.T.Emery; Rooms Committee, Messrs.Ramsay, Renaud and nenna; Library Committee, Messrs.Grant, K.Good and Theoret; Recreation Committee, Messrs.Halfleld, W.Loucks and E.Rice; Auditors, Messrs.R.W Kilgour, and D.Smith.This Club seems to have taken to itself new life and if the programme suggested for the coming year be carried out a pleasant and profitable time 1s promised the members of the Club.The finances of the Club are in good shape, with a substantial balance on hand.The young people of St.Edward's i Church have engaged tha Club rooms for two evenings each month as their place of meeting.Mr.R.W.Kilgour has returned from Jamestown\u2019 U.S.where he has been attending a Furniture Exhibition.He reports business very dull across the lines.This Exhibition, which was to have run for three weeks, was closed owing to lack of sales.A special offering was taken in the Presbyterian Church on Sunday for the Vimy Memorial Church, which amounted to about $60.\u2014 aa v In 1903 two hundred motor car licenses were issued in Ontario;

film will be shown again next week.The Movie brought out the fact that it cost McGill from $1320 to $3200 for every graduate.KENSINGTON Officer Wilson and Deputy Official Smaill laid seizure on Saturday toa quantity of liquor found on Oliver Durocher\u2019's premises.At 4 am.Wednesday last, the hog pen of Mr.Henry Donnelly was in flames.Owing to the wind being in a favourable direction the rest of the buildings were saved.The sympathy of the community goes out to Mr.Donnelly in his misfortune, BE ST.MARTINE Since the beginning of the month we have had considerale rain which leaves the roads in bad shape.Hard frost would be welcomed now as automobiles frequently get stuck in the mud and have tobe pulled out at considerable expense to the owners as teamsters take advantage of them and charge exorbitant prices.The Dulude bridge over the Bean River is at last finished and open to the public.It is a fine piece of work but rather costly.Mr.J.C.Poupart, N.P.has returned from the hospital where he was operated on and is fast recovering.Many houses in the village are still without coal for the winter which 1s fast approaching.Wednesday morning a regular gale blew from the North-East accompanied by rain which froze as it fell.Being \u2018accompanied with a little snow, it made a good coating over the macadam rôads, making splendid sleighing, but the clay roads are almost impassible.i te eet ATHELSTAN Mr.Robt.Gardner reopened his factory on Monday morning and skimmed 6000 lbs.of milk, Co-operation Grows In Saskatche- | wan.'

Howick, P.Q., the consideration wveing $35,000.This farm is situated on the State highway, between Ellenburgh and Ellenburgh Depot and consists of 290 acres of land, all of which is in a high state of cultivation.Upon acquiring this property a few years ago the Cheese- man-Munsil Co.set out to make it a model farm in every way and to this end they erected new barn buildings and remodelled the old structure then in use.These they equipped with all the new devices for caring for stock and facilitating labor, with the résult that the farm property is now considered one of the best in the morth ern part of the State.This recent transfer makes the third farm sale that tne Cheeseman- Munsil Co.have made within the past three months, the three disposed of aggregating a total of 1,066 acres.A peculiar coincident is that all three farms were sold to French Canadians, who with their families will move to this side with the inten: tion of becoming American citizens.All purchasers have families large enough so that they will have the farm.labor problem well in hand, Et New York.\u2014The first demonstration of the teleo-stereo- graph, the invention of Edouard Belin of Paris, which

mandate of 1917 to win the war was fulfilled two years ago; that this mandate was not given to the present Government, and that the present Government never received any mandate.\u2014 Toronto Globe.|

eighty persons sat down to the first Annual Banquet of the Farmers' Club in McDougall Hall on Tuesday night.The President of the Club presided and called on Rev.D.N.Coburn to present the needs of McGill and Macdonald College.Mr.Coburn in closing his remarks called for a toast to Old McGill, which was responed to by Br.Gruer.Mayor \u2018Neil Sangster was called on and made a very witty speech closing his re: marks by asking those present to rise and drink to the health of the Department of Agriculture who were doing a good work for the farmers.Mr.J.H.Torson was called on and made quite a lengthy speech in his usual happy manner.Mr.Donald McEwen proposed a toast tothe Ladies in a very pleasing manner and which was ably responded to by Mrs.A.E Sadler, President of the W.CT.U.Society.The principal speaker of the evening was Mr.Hopkins, of the Experimental Farm, Ottawa, who spoke on several different matters pertaining to the farm.Mr.David Cavers rendered different violin selec tions during the evening accompanied by Mr.Albert McCaig on the piano.The W.C.T.U.served the Banquet and deserve great credit for the nicely decorated tables and for the feast of good things that were set before the guests.The Club Management are to be congratulated on their first banquet being a grand success.= ENDOWING MOTHERHOOD Men have talked, poets have sung, artists have painted, sculptors have glorifled in the dignity of motherhood, and let it go at that.It has remained for New South Wales lu create the first \u201cMinistry of Motherhood\u201d in the world.One of the first acts of the newly elected Government was the creation of such a cabinet office, charged with the duty of making provision for mothers and children who are forced to enter industry to make a livelihood.One of the duties of the new ministry is to administer the law endowing motherhood.New South Wales thinks that if a mother bears a large number of children, she has performed the most valuable service possible to the State, and she is to be compensated by endowment.Instead of talking about the \u2018'ract suicide\u201d and deploring small famil- fes, New South Wales has decided to do something practical about it\u2014If not to make it worth while to raise.families, at least not to penalize them.Definite details of the proposed new law have not been work: ed out, but it is tentatively proposed that a working man's family having elght children, for (instance, would have all but the first two subsidized in the form of an endowment paid to the mother, the money for which purpose is to be obtained from a graduated tax on incomes, to the extent of some $25,000,000 annually.It is a logical extension of the principle on which the public schools were established-\u2014that the community is and should be responsible for the welfare of its children.\u2014Brandon Weekly Sun.WOMEN'S INSTITUTE AND CHILDclean.WELFARE One of the live questions occupying the attention of the leaders of public affairs today is Public Health and Child Welfare, in other words, Conservation of Humanity.Too long have our eyes been closed to the evils, of prevailing and the time has come when it ls the duty of every citizen to do his or her part in making this country a sufer place for our children in which to live.The following report was given at the recent meeting of the Board ot Directors of the Federated Women's Institutes of Canada, by the Convenor of the committee of health and child welfare.As it is full of useful suggestions we pass it on.In discussing the report on chilc welfare, submitted by the convenor.Dr.Margaret Patterson, the Board of Directors recommended that the Woinen's Institutes co-operate with the Provincial Health Department in the various provinces.Dr.Patterson congratulated the Women's Institutes of the various provinces on what they had done In getting the hot lunch installed in the schools.She also gave the following suggestions: (a) Why not alm at every school a health centre?(b) Could the Institutes not start an order of Nation Builders, whose membership should be children pledged to observe the simple laws of health having in person, home ana school?The membership pledge should consist of a list of health rules like the following: 1.1 will respect my body and keep it clean.2.1 will strive to be clean in mind.3 I will ringe my mouth after every meal and use my tooth brush every night.4.1 will keep my face, hands and finger nails clean, 6.'I will bathe often and try to keep my clothing clean.6.I will drink a glass of water every morning before breakfast.7.1 will eat wholesome food ana chew it well.\u2018 8.1 will live in the open air as much as possible.9.1 will go to bed early and sleep with my windows open.10.1 will try to protect the health of others and will not cough or sneeze without protecting my face.Advancement, in the order to be given for keeping these rules.The cards should be signed by parent, teacher or school nurse testifying that the rules have been kept.When children learn and practise the rules of health they carry them into the home and the parents are educated by the children.A set of rules could be adapted to the community, but the essentials are same; thus: The American Commission for combating tuberculosis in France Ia circulating among children an excellent set of rules for health of which the following is a translation: 1.Breathe fresh air at all times.Fresh air and sunshine destroy the germs of contagious disease.2 Wear light, loose and porous clothing.3.Live as much as possible out ol doors.4.Sleep room.5.Practise deep, slow respiration.6.Avoid eating too much, especially of meat and eggs.7.Eat a variety of food and masticate thoroughly.8.Evacuate the bowels regularly.9.Maintain an erect posture In sitting and walking.10.Avoid drugs.They contain , poisons.- 11.Keep the hody in a well ventilated strong and N conditions.; put her foot in it.This will Increase resistance to disease.12.Work with energy, but proper rest and recreation.take 13.Keep a contented mind.(¢) Tooth brush drills, calisthen- fes, folk dancing, organized play grounds and morning \u201cstand to\u2019 tor fnspection at the opening of school could also be a part of the order and merit marks be given.This etimu- lates competition and keeps the interest keen, (d) Women are the guardians os the health of the nation, but have been too modest over their trust.When we have our school fairs with prizes for best calf, best vegetavnien and fruit, why not a prize for the school having the best health record, whose puplls are fn tha best condition, whose bulldings and grounds are kept in the most sanitary condition?(8) Why not also judge the hoe on \u201cpoints\u201d as we now do \u201cthe standing crops\" \u201d Supposing ne homes were {inspected by a duly qualified inspector and marked on susch points as the following, migu- ft not stimulate an Interest in \u201cBetter Health and Child Welfare\u2019?1.General location, cheorfulness of outlook, material beauty.2.Outlook, amount of sunshino possible, 3.Ventilation.4.Heating.5.General conventanco.6.Cellar, dry and airy 7.Water supply, purity and con venience.8.Disposal of waste and sewage 9.General health of occupants.10.Sanitary condition of hous and grounds, There is one very simple piece of work, the importance of which no one can gauge, that 1 would like to ask the Institutes to undertake this coming year.We all view with sorrow and alarm the great prevalunc of goltre, especially among ou young folks.It has been estimnted that fully one-fifth of ull our people under thirty years of age have goitre to some oxtent.Golire rendered a map unfit for milltary ser vice; so it is 1 serious physical aetri ment, and in many cas, most un- slghtly.While the cure of goltre is difficult, its prevention is so simple that it {8 a crime to allow any child to develop it.Through the research work of Professor Steyart, ft has been proved that the fumes of tine- ture of lodine fn the air will prevent goitre.The mere presence of iodine is quite susfficient.Professor Stewart found that in localities where ninety per cent.of the children between ten and eighteen years develop goître it might have heen absolutely prevented by simply kcoping a bottle of tincture of fodine in the school room.We cannot reach every child's bedroom, but we can reach every school.1t would he a very easy matter for the Women's Institutes to place a small bottle of tincture of iodine in overy school, to have it left there uncorked and replenished as It evaporates; for, of course, there must always he liquid fodine kept in the hottle so that it may be evaporating, give off Ita fumes.This could not have any injurious affect, and what a national service we ciuld render in preventing this common and serious dls- ease.Mrs.W.8.ARMITAGE, Publicity Convenor Women's Fnati- tutes of Quebec.Ep Savanah News:\u2014The woman who accepts a

Two youths entirely in Willlam's sonditivn of beart accompanied the glamourous girl, while Miss Parcher ippeared dimly upon the outskirts of the group.the well known penalty for tostesses who entertain such radiance.Probably it serves them right.Miss Pratt's voice came clearly as the chim- «nig of tiny bells, for she spoke whim.aically to ber little dog in that tinkling shildlike fashion which wes part of the spell she cast.\u201cDarlin\u2019 Fiopit.\u201d she said, \u201cwake up! Oo tummin' to tea potty wiz all de rowed ups.P'eshus Flopit, wake up!\u201d His heart melting within him, Wil dam turned from the angelic sounds of the window.He ran out of the room and plunged down the front stairs.And the next moment the ui Ji WU =, | William Was Seated Upon the Prostrate \u2018Battle of Gettysburg.\u201d crash of breaking glass and the loud thump-bump of a beavily falling human body resounded.Mrs.Baxter, alarmed, excused Ler- self from the tea table, round which were gathered four or five young people, and hastened to the front hall, fol- towed by Jane.Through the open door were seen Miss Pratt, Miss Parcher.Mr.Johnnie Watson and Mr.Joe Bul- itt coming up the walk, laugbing and unaware of the catastrophe which had occurred.And a little distance from the foot of the stairs William was seated upon the prostrate \u201cBattle of Gettysburg.\u201d \u201cIt slid,\u201d he said hoarsely.\u201cI car- rled it upstairs with me\u201d \u2014he believed this\u2014*\"and somebody brought it down and left it lying flat on the fluor by the bottom step on purpose to trip me.I stepped on it, and it slid.\u201d \u201cGet up.Willie,\u201d Mra.Baxter urged.and then she beheld ruins other than the wrecked engraving.She stified a cry.\u201cWillle, did the glass cut you?\u201d He felt himself.\u201cNo'm.\u201d \u201cIt did your trousers.You'll have to change them.Burry!\" Some of William's normal facultles were restored to hin by one basty glance at the back of his left leg, which had a dismantled appearance.A long blue strip of cloth bung there, with white showing underneath.\u201cHurry!\u201d sald Mrs, Baxter.And, hastily gathering some fragments of glass, she dropped them upon the engraving, pushed it out of the way and went forward to greet Miss Pratt and ber attendants.Upward William sped unseen and came to a breathless halt at the top of the stairs.As it were {n a dream he heard his mother's hospitable greetings at the door, and the little party lingered in the hall, detained by Miss Pratt's dis covery of Jane.\u201cOh, tweetums tootums ickle dirlf\u201d be heard the ravishing voice exclaim.\u201cOh, tootums ickle blue sash!\u201d \u201cIt cost a dollar and eighty-nine cents,\u201d said Jane.\u201cWillie sat on the eakes.\u201d : \u201cOk, no, bé didn't!\u201d Mrs.Baxter faughed.\u201cHe didn\u2019t quite!\u201d \u201cHe had to go upstairs,\u201d said Jane.And as the stricken listener above smote his forehead she added placidly, \u201cHe tore & hole in his clo\u2019es.\u201d She seemed about to furnish details, far mood being communicative, but \u201c among their own belongings.Mrs.Baxter led the way into the \u201cUwe ing room.\u201d The bali wus vacated, and only the murmur of voires and laugb- ter reached William.William leaned upon the banister railing and thought thoughts about Jape.For several loug, seething moments he thought of Ler exclusively.Then, spurred by the luud laughter of rivals and the agony of knowing that even in his own house they were monopolizing the attention of ome of the ovoblest, be hastened into his own room and took account of his reverses.Standing with his back to the mirror.be obtained over bls shoulder a view of his trousers which caused him to break out in a fresh perspiration.Again he wiped bis forebend with the pandkerchief, and the result was iu- stantly visible in the mirror.William began a feverish examination of the garments banging in a clothes closet.Tulere were two pairs of Sanne] trousers which would probably again be white and possible when sleaned and pressed.Beside them bung Lis last year's summer suit of light gray.Feverishly he brought it forth, threw off his coat and then.deflected by an- sther glance at the mirror, began to rhange his collar again.To quicken she process he decided to straighten ie bent collar button.Using a shoe horn as a lever, he succeeded in bring- vg the little cap or bead of the button uto its proper plane, but his final sffort dislodged the cap from the rod ve*ween it aud the base, and it flew iY iutv space.Here was a calamity, Few things are more useless than a decapitated collar button, and William bad no other.He had made sure that it was his last before be put it on that day; also he had ascertained that there was none in.ou or about bis father's dressing tuble.Finally, in the possession of ueitber William nor his rather was there a shirt with an indigenous collar.At first be did not realize tbe extent of his misfortune.Of course William searched bis dressing table and bis father's, although be bad been thorough.| ly over both once before that day.Next he went through most of his mother's and Jane's accessories to the toilet, through trinket boxes, glove boxes, hairpin boxes, handkerchief cases, even through sewing baskets.Utterly he convinced himself that ladies uot only use no collar buttons, but also mever pick thew up and put them Jane, arriving at bis locked door upon an errand, was bidden by a thick, vunat- ural voice to depart.: \u201cMamma says, \u2018What In mercy's name is the matter?\u201d Jane called.\u201cShe whispered to me, \u2018Go an\u2019 see what in mercy's name is the matter with Willie, an\u2019 if the glass cut him, after all, an' why don't be come down.\u2019 An\u2019 why don't you, Willie?We're all havin\u2019 the nicest time!\" \u201cYou g'way!\" said the strange voice within the room.\u201cG way!\u201d \u201cWell, did the glass cut you?\u201d \u201cNo! Keep quiet.G'way!\u201d \u201cWell, are you ever comin\u2019 down to your party?\u201d \u201cYes, I am.G'way!\u201d Jane obeyed, and William somehow completed the task upon which be was engaged.Genius bad burst forth from his despair.Necessity bad become a mother again, and William's collar was in place.It was tied there.Under his necktie was a piece of string.He bad lost count of time, but he was frantically aware of its passage.Agony was in the thought of s0 many rich moments frittered away upstairs while Joe Bullitt and Johnnie Watson made bay below.And there was another spur to haste in his fear that the bebavior of Mrs.Baxter might not be all that the guest of honor would paturally expect of William's mother.As for Jane, his mind filled with dread.Shivers passed over him at intervals, It was a dismal thing to appear at a_ party, and that his own, in last summers suit, but when he had hastily put it on and faced the mirror he felt a little better\u2014for three or four sec onds.Then he turned to see how the back of it looked\u2014and collapsed in a chair, moaning.He had worn these clothes on the previous Saturday, and, returning from a glorified walk with Miss Pratt, he had demonstrated a fact to which his near demolition of the wafers thig aft ernoon was additional testimony.This fact, roughly stated, is that a person of seventeen in love is liable to sit down anywhere.William had dream- {ly seated himself upon a taboret in the library without noticing that Jane had left her open paint box there, Jane had just been painting sunsets.Naturally all the little blocks of color were wet, and the effect upon Wil- Lam's pale gray trousers was marvelous, far beyond the capacity of his coat to conceal Collar buttons and children\u2019s paint boxes\u2014these are the trolls that lie in wait! The gray clothes and the flannel trousers had been destined for the professional cleaner, and William, rousing himself from a brief stupor, made a piteous effort to substitute himself for that expert.He brought water, towels, bath soap and a rubber bath sponge to the bright light of his window, and there, with touching courage and persistence, he tried to scrub the paint out of the cloth.He obtained cloud studies and marines which would have interested a post-impressionist, but upon trousers they seemed out of place.There came one seeking and calling him again.Raps sounded upon the door, which he had not forgottem to lock.\u201cWillie,\u201d said a serious voice, \u201cmamma wants to know what in mercy\u2019s name is the matter! She wants to know if you know for mercy's name what time it is! She wants to know what in mercy\u2019s name you think they're all goin\u2019 to think! She says\"\u2014 \u201cG'way!\u201d \u201cWell, she said I had to find out what in mercy\u2019s name you're doin\u2019, Willie!\u201d \u201cYou tell her,\u201d he shouted hoarsely- \u201ct\u2018el] her I'm playin\u2019 dominoes! What's she think I'm dofn\u2019?\u201d \u201cI guesa\u201d\u2014Jane paused, evidently to complete the swallowing of something \u2014#I guess she thinks you're goin\u2019 crazy.I don't like Miss Pratt, but she lets me play with that little dog.It's oame\u2019's Flopit.\u201d \u201cYou go \u2018way fromithat door aud ram mop bothering me,\u201d sald William.got enough on my mind!\u201d \u201cMamma looks at Miss Pratt,\u201d Jane remarked.\u201cMiss Pratt puts cakes in that Mr.Bullitt's mouth and Johnnie Watson's mouth too.She's awful.\u201d William bellowed, \u201cIf you don\u2019t get away from that door\u201d\u2014 Jane was interested in tbe conversation, but felt that it would be better to return to the refreshment table.There she made use of her own con- reption of a whisper to place before ber mother a report which was considered interesting and even curious by every one present, though, such was the courtesy of the little assembly, there was a general pretense of not hearing.\u201cI told him,\u201d thus whispered Jane, *an\u2019 he said, \u2018You g\u2019way from that door or I'll do somep'n'\u2014 He didn\u2019t jay what, mamma.He said: \u2018What you think I'm doin\u2019?I'm playin\u2019 dom.noes\u2019 He didn't mean he was playin\u2019 lominoes, mamma.He just said he was.1 think maybe he was Just Iook- in\u2019 in the lookin'glass some more.\u201d Mrs.Baxter was becoming embarrassed.She resolved to go to Wil llam's room herself at the first opportunity, but for some time her conacien- tiousness as a hostess continued to occupy her at the table, and then when she would Lave gone Miss Pratt detained her by a rogulsh appeal to make Mr.Bullitt and Mr.Watson behave, Both refused all nourishment except such as was placed in their mouths by the delicate hand of one of the Noblest, and the latter said that really she wanted to eat a little tweetle now and then herself and not to spend her whole time feeding the Men.For Miss Pratt had the same playfulness with older people that she had with those of her own age, and she elaborated her pretended quarrel with the two young gentlemen, taking others of the dazzled company into her confidence about it and insisting upon \u201cMamma Batster's\u201d acting formally as judge to settle the difficulty, However, having thus arranged matters, Miss Pratt did not resign the center of interest, but herself proposed a compromise.She would continue to feed Mr.Bullitt and Mr.Watson \u201cevery other tweetie\u201d\u2014that is, each must agree to eat a cake \u201call by him own self\u201d after every cake fed to him.So the comedietta went on, to the running accompaniment of laughter, with Mr, Bullitt and Mr, Watson swept by gusts of adoration.A colored serving majd entered with a laden tray and, having disposed of its freight of bonbons among the guests, spoke to Mrs, Baxter in a low voice.\u201cCould you manage step in the back hall a minute, please, ma'am?\u201d Mrs.Baxter managed and, having closed the door upon the laughing voices, asked quickly: \u201cWhat is it, Adelia?Have you seen Mr.William?Do you know why he doesn't come down?\u2019 \u201cYer'm,\u201d sald Adelia \u201cHe gone mighty near out his head, Miz Baxter.He come floppin\u2019 down the back stairs in his bafrobe lil while ago.He jes\u2019 gone up again.He ain't got no britches, Miz Baxter; he ain't got no britches at ail.\u201d \u201cBut it can't be!\u201d she gasped.\u201cHe bas! He has plenty!\u201d \u201cI CHAPTER IX.Time Does Fly.6 O\u2019M, he ain\u2019t got no britches,\u201d Adelia assured Mrs.Baxter.\u201cAn\u2019 hes carryin\u2019 on s0 1 don't scarcely think he knows much what he's doin\u2019, Miz Baxter.He brung down some gray britches to the kitchen to see if I couldn\u2019 preas an\u2019 clean 'em right quick.They was the ones Miss Jane, when she\u2019s paintin\u2019 all them sunsets, lef\u2019 her paint box open, an\u2019 one them sunsets got on these here gray britches, Miz Baxter.An\u2019 hones'ly, Miz Baxter, he's fixed 'em in a condishun, tryin\u2019 to git that paint out, I don't believe it'll be no use sendin\u2019 em to the cleaner.\u201c\u2018Clean \u2019em an\u2019 press \u2018em quick?1 says.\u2018I couldn't clean \u2019em by resur- reckshun, let alone pressin\u2019 em! No'm} \u2018Well I says, \u2018ain't but one thing lef\u2019 to do I can see, I says.\u2018Why don\u2019t you go put on that nice black suit you had las\u2019 winter?\u201d .\u201cOf course!\u201d Mra.Baxter cried.go and\u2019 \u2014 \u201cNo'm,\u201d said Adela; \u201cyou don\u2019t need to.He's up in the attic now r'arin\u2019 roun\u2019 'mong them trunks, but seem to me like I remember you put that suit away under the heavy blankets in that big cedar ches\u2019 with the padlock.If you jes' tell me where is tbe key I take it up to him.\u201d : \u201cUnder the bureau in the spare room,\u201d sald Mrs.Baxter.\u201cHurry!\u201d Fifteen minutes later Willlam, for the last time that afternoon, surveyed himself in his mirror.The black suit was a map of creases, but at least he was clothed.He emptied his pockets, disgorging upon the floor a multitude of small white spheres like marbles.He discovered that their odor still remained about him, 80 he stopped and carefully turned his pockets inside ont; but, finding that he still smelled vehemently of the moth balls, he went to his mother's room and sprinkled violet toilet water upon his chest and shoul ders.He disliked such odors, but that left by the moth balls was intolerable, and, \u201c1 Look, Clem/\u201d he said.\u201cYum, yumi\u201d laying hands upon a canister labeled \u201cHyacinth,\u201d he contrived to pour a quantity of scented powder inside his Lo, William was now ready to go to his party! Moist, wilted, smelling indeed strangely, be was ready.But when he reached the foot of the stairs he discovered that there was one thing more to be done.He bebeld a lurking shape upon the porch, stealtbily moving toward the open door.It was the lowly Clematis, dog unto Genesis.William instantly divined the pus pose of Clematis.It was debatable whether Clematis had remained upon the premises after the departure of Genesis or had lately returned thither upon some errand of his own, but one thing was certain, and the manner of Clematis\u2014his attitude, Lis every look, his every gesture\u2014made It as clear as day.Clematis had discovered by one means or anuther the presence of Flop- it in the house and had determined to see Lim personally.Willlam was well aware that Clem- atls could not be driven away, except temporarily, for nothing was further fixed upon Clematis than his habit of retiring under pressure, only to return and return again.Willlam cast a bunted look over his shoulder; then he approached Clematis.\u2018Good ule doggie,\u201d he sald huskily.\u201cHyub, Clem! Hyuh, Clem!\" Clematis moved sidelong, retreating, bis bead low, his tall denoting anxious thoughts., Thereupon William essayed a ruse\u2014 he pretended to nibble at something and them extended his band as if it held forth a gift ot food.\u2018Look, Clem,\u201d be said.\u201cYum-yum! Meat, Clem! Good meat!\u201d For once Clematis was half credulous, He did not advance, but he elongated himself to investigate the extended band and the next instant found himself seized viciously by the scruff of the neck.He submitted to capture in absolute silence.William dragged him down a passageway tc the cellar door.This he opened, thrust Clematis upon the other side of it closed and Lulted it.Immediately a stentoriun howl raised Llood curdling echoes through the bouse.Clematis stated that be was anxious to see Flopit and cousidered it an unexampled outrage that he was withheld from the opportunity.Wil jam charged down the cellar stairs after Clematis, choking and calling in low.ferocious tones: \u201cGood doggie! 300d ole doggie! Hyuh, Clem! Meat.(lem! Meat!\" There was dodging through coalbins.there was squirming between barrels, there was high jumping and broad jumping, but finally William was the conqueror, and into a small shed or toolliouse behind Mrs, Baxter's flower Leds went Clematis in a burried and spasmodic manner.The instant the door slammed he lifted his voice and was bidden to use it now as much as he liked.William strode Into the hall and opened the door of the \u201cliving room.\u201d Jane was sitting on the floor busily painting sunsets in a large blank book.She looked up brightly.\u201cI got a little bit sick, so mamma told me to keep quiet awhile.She's lookin\u2019 for you all over the house.She told papa she don't know what in mercy's name people are goin' to think about you, Willie.\u201d The distraught youth strode to her.The party\u201d\u2014 he choked.\u201cWhere\"\u2014 \u201cThey all stayed pretty long,\u201d said Jane, but the last ones said they had to go home to their dinners when papa came, a little while ago.Johnnie Watson was carryin\u2019 Flopit for that Miss Pratt.\u201d William dropped into the chair beside which Jane had established herself upon the floor.Then he uttered a terrible cry and rose.Again Jane had painted a sunset she had not intended.- On a warm morning, ten days later, William stood pensively among his mother\u2019s flowerbeds behind the house, his attitude denoting a low state of vitality.Not far away an aged negro sat upon a wheelbarrow in the hot sun, tremulously yet skillfully whittling a plece of wood into the shape of a boat, labor more to his taste evidently than that which he bad abandoned at the request of Jane, Allusion to this preference for a lighter task was made by Genesis, who was erecting a trellis on the border of the little garden.\u201cPappy whittle all day,\u201d he chuckled.\u201cWhittle all night too.Pappy, I thought you 'uz goin\u2019 to git \u2018at long bed all spade v, \u2026 Qe by noon.Ain't \u2018at what you tole mej\u201d \u201cYou let him alone, Genesis,\u201d said Jane, who sat by the old man's side, deeply fascinated.\u201cThere's goin' to be a great deal of raln in the next few days, maybe, an\u2019 I haf to Lave this boat ready.\u201d The aged darky lifted his streaky and diminished eyes to the burnished sky and laughed.\u201cRaln come some day, anyways,\u201d he said.\u201cWe git de boat ready \u2018fo\u2019 she fall; dat sho.\u201d His glance wandered to Willlam and rested upon him with feeble curiosity.\u201cDat ain\u2019 yo' pappy.is it?\" he asked Jane.\u201c1 should say it fen*t!° she exclaimed.\u201cIt's Willie He was only seventeen about two or three months ago, Mr.Genesis.\u201d This was not the old man's name, but Jane had evolved it, inspired by respert for one so aged and so kind about whittling.He was the fatuer of Genesis, and the latter, neither to her knowledge nor to ber\u2018imaginatiun, possessed a surname.The old man continued his whit tling in a craftsmanlike manner, which brought praise from Jane.\u201cYou can see to whittle, Mr.Gene- sls,\u201d she said.\u201cYou whittle better than anybody in the world.\u201d \u201cI uwpeck so, mebbe,\u201d Mr, Genesis returned, with a little complacency.\u201cHow ole yo' pappy?*Oh, he's old!\" Jape explained.William deigned to correct her.\u201cHe's uot old;

delivered his inaugural address to the students of Edinburgh * University on the occasion of his in- .stallation as Lord Rector, says Answers.There must be many still living who heard that address; there are millions who have read it since then.It is to be hoped that millions will continue to read it.For it was, an is, a literary masterpiece, compad§ with wisdom, rich in lofty advice from an old man to young men, pregnant with prophecy of the evils which have beset our weary world for the past five years.\u201cI have been rgading once more,\u201d writes one of \"he most popular of our contributors, \u2018this wonderful address, and cannot help suggesting one or two extracts which go to prove how accurate was Carlyle\u2019s outlook on the world as he saw it evolving fifty odd years ago.\u2018\u201c\u201cHe was urging the necessity, the imperative demand, for sane and logical thinking, for the suppression of loose talk\u2014almost for the abolition of speech as we generally understand it, And the annoying thing abôut all this is that the Scottish sage was founding some of his theorem on Goethe's plan for mute education: \u2018\u2018 \u2018Look where you will, revolution is coming upon us! We have already got into the age of revolutions, All kinds of things'are coming to be sub- Jected to fire, as it were; hotter and hotter blows the element round everything.It is evident that whatever is not inconsumable\u2014made of asbestos\u2014will hove to be burnt.Nothing other will stand the heat in this world!\u201d Even in 1866 Carlyle saw the travail that lay before the world, and he perceived with unorring vision, that ambition, the false ambition as Against the true, would be responsible for much of tiie wrack and misery and blood-flowing we have experienced during the past few years.Yet Carlyle, whose admiration \u2018for the great German thinkers, Goethe, Heine, Schiller, was immense, could scarcely have foreseen at that time how modern German ambition was to lay waste the continent of Europe.Listen to Carlyle\u2019s advice to the studenis at Edinburgh on the part they should try to play in combating the \u201cconsuming fre\u201d of the \u2018new ideas that are afloat\u2019: \u201cIn every point the commonplace man is becoming more and more the son, not of Cosmos, but of Chaos.He is a disobedieny, discontented, reckless, and altogether waste kind of object, and the wiser kind of man\u2014 the select few of whom I hope you will he part\u2014has more and more to see to this, to look vigilantly forward, and will require to move with double wisdom, Will find, in short, that the crooked things he has got to pull straight all round him are manifold, and will tax all his strength, however great it be.He will have to stand un Lo the work to the last breath of his life.We are called upon to do that, and the only reward we will get is that we have got the work done\u2014or at least that we bave tried to do it.\u2018That will be a great blessing in itself; and I should say there is not much more reward thaa that gning in this world!\u201d End of the Honeymoon.\u2018 \u201cI guess the honeymoon ig about over.\u201d ! \u201cWhat's the matter?\u201d i \u201cHe's begun to discover that some of: her folks make him tired and she's, declared that some of his relatives are a nuisance.\u201d !
