The Huntingdon gleaner, 6 avril 1922, jeudi 6 avril 1922

[" \u2018 | éIFTY-E{(GHTH YFAR The Week at Ditawa The past week has been the most important so far in the work of the present Session.That Parliament ig dealing with big questions, and that the country is very much interested in the subjects of debate were attested to by the singularly large attendances at both afternoon und evening sessions.The speeches were of high character and, with the exception of periodic spasms of partisanship, kept close tp the mark.Al] three parties measure up favorably in so far as discussion is concerned, and the general impression, apart from politics, seems to be that the present House is intellectually superior to its predecessor.Of outstanding interest to the Canadian people in general was the want of confidence motion introduced by the Opposition on Tuesday last, in which the Government was sustained by an overwhelming majority; and the discussion on the threatening aspect of coal mining situation in Nova Scotia on Thursday.A clause in the Liberal platform of 1919 was responsible for the division taken.The Liberal platform as adopted at that time contained a clause of the effect that the party favored the granting of cash bonuses to soldiers und, when the estimates of the Soldiers\u2019 Civil Re-establishment were under discussion, members of the Opposition challenged the Government on the ground that they were not keeping faith with the electors in not having introduced measures to carry out their promises.The resolution was lengthily debated and the Government sustained on division by a majority of 120\u2014the largest majority ever obtained by a Canadian Government on a want of confidence motion, Monday witnessed the return to the House of the Prime Minister who had been absent for a week owing to the death of his brother,\u2018 Dr.King, in Denver, Colorado.Hon.Mr.King accompanied the remains to Toronto where burial took place on Friday last.Hon.G.N.Gordon, (Peterboro W), newly appointed Deputy Speaker, took over his new duties on the opening of the week's business.Last week was noted for the introduction into the realms of debate of Miss Agnes McPhail, lady member for Grey S.E., who made her debut by questioning the Minister of Soldiers' Civil Re-establishment (Hon.Dr.Beland), when his Department's estimates were being considered Dr.Beland remarked that it would be to his \u201ceternal honor\u201d to have drawn the first lady member of the Canadian Parliament into discussion.With the closing of the debate on the Address from the Throne, on Friday last, Hon.Mr.Fielding, Minister of Finance, tabled his estimates and requested Parliament, owing to the approach of the new fiscal year, to grant, at least, one-quarter of the several amounts mentioned thereil.He claimed that this would cover supply for three months but offered to limit his request to one-sixth, but stated that the amounts stipulated were required to provide for the urgent needs of the service.Members of the Opposition claimed that more time should have been allowed in which to study the various items and pointed out that when the Conservatives were in power the minimum time provided had been two weeks.The Prime Minister (Hon.Mackei- zie King), stated that it had been found humanly impossible to produce tho estimates any sooner, as owing to the late date chosen by the Meighen (Government for the election, the possibility of tabling the estimates sooner had been precluded.He asserted that with the approach of the new fiscal year a part at least of the estimates should be passed in order to permit the carrying on of the country\u2019s business.Further opposition then developing, the Government resolved to let the matter stand and went into supply on the Civil Government Estimates, The Estimates of the Departments of Railways and Canals, Privy Council, High Commissioner's Office, Soldiers\u2019 Civil Reestablishment, Interior, Justice, La- : \u201cthe Nova Scotia Government had tele- bour and Militia and Defence were taken up and passed.The introduction of the estimates of the Soldiers\u2019 Civil Re-establish- M ment Department provoked lengthy discussion.In addition to occupying the time of the House for the greater part of Monday, it was not until Tuesday at 6.30 P.M.that they were eventually passed.At this stage the Opposition motion of want of confidence was introduced, and was based upon the grounds that In 1919 at its convention the Liberal platform provided that when returned to power a bonus would be paid to the soldiers, and concluded by saying: \u201cThat the Liberal party having been returned to power the refusal now by the leader of the Government and by the Ministers of Soldiers\u2019 Civil Re-establishment to fulfil such promise and pledge constitutes Va 00 The Best News and Advertising Medium THURSDAY, APRIL 6th, 1922 Tepudiation of à solemn obligation and a disregard of political honor.\u201d The Government denied that the liberal Convention's resolution had constituted a pledge, and argued that while conditions in 1919 might have warranted such action at that time, the position today has muterially changed as depleted finances of the ccuntry would not now permit of such an expenditure, and furthermore the mujority of returned soldiers selves are not favorable tu it.In reply to the leader of the Op- them- : bosition's charge of \u201cbroken pledges\u201d Hon.Mr.Fielding countered by druw- ing attention to the violation of piedges which had featured the Melghen regime, notably the promise thut there would be no general election until redistribution had been put through, as well as to the violation of the Couservative promise of tariff revision, which had been featured in the Conservative Government's last speech from the throne, In the debate which followed, Hon.Mr.Crerar voiced his intention of voting with the Government, stating that he felt that the House was not justified in levelling any charges of irsincerity or of departure from political honor against the Liberal party.The vote when taken showed that the Progressives had lined up solidly for the Government, a fact that was greeted by prolonged cheers from the Government benches.The first private members\u2019 resolution wag carried in the House on Wednesday, and will entail an amendment to the Dominion Election's Act, affecting the franchise of women.The former Government, in enacting the existing legislation had practically banned female voters whose rights under the law were established by marriage to naturalized subjects.At present women outside of British subjects by birth, or those born on the American continent, or who voted under the War Time Elections Act may vote, only on securing a certifi cate from a judge.Mr, Euler, who introduced the resolution claimed that no discrimination should be shown and that any British subject whose citizenship fs acquired either by virtue of murriage or through naturalization should have the unqual- ifled and unrestricted right to vote.The resolution carried and a Bill will he introduced.Miss McPhail.(Grey 8.E.), supported the resolution stating that women were entitled to the same privileges as the male sex which caused Mr.Church of Toronto to remark that \u201cthe member for Southeast Grey does not represent all the women in the Dominion.\u201d Thursday was given over to the discussion on the trouble between the mine operators and the miners in Nova Scotia.The difficulty dates back to January 1st of this year, when severe wage reductions were instituted by the British Empire Steel Corporation.These reductions, it would appear, brought wages in the Nova Scotia coal fields very much be - low those being paid in Alberta.Mr.Irvine, the Labor member, who introduced the subject, stated that while the wages being paid by the British Empire Steel Corporation were 71 per cent below those obtaining in the West, the cost of living is 17 per cent higher in the Kast than in the Western provinces, Following the wage reduction, Mr.Irvine stated, the Government appointed a Board of Conciliation for the purpose of investigating the situation.It appeared that the findings of the Board were pot satisfactory to the Miners who consequently rejected them.A delegation representing the men thereupon reopened negotiations with the Company, with the result that a dally rate of $2.85 way offered by the Company.This rate was also rejected by the miners as being insufficient.The men, however, were in the position of having given most of their surplus earnings towards unemployment relief and in view of the fact that they were forced to work to sustain their homes, decided to lower the rate of production to what they con- gidered was commensurate with the value of the wage received.Mr.W.F.Carroll (8.Cape Breton), stated that the Minister of Mines of graphed to President Baxter of the United Mine Workers, advising him that if the men would work faithfully he would appoint a Royal Commission to investigate the trouble.Mr.Carrol asserted that when this offer was read to the miners at Glace Bay on Sunday last it was met by a refusal from the men, Hon.Mr.Murdock, Minister of Labour, explained that the trouble between the Miners and the Operators had arisen prior to his having taken charge of the Department, and stated that one of his first official\u2019 acts had been to appoint a chairman to fit in with the representatives of the men who had been appointed by Hou.Mr.Robertson, former Minister of Labour, and the Company.He claimed that in view of the recent a | dovelopments it would appear that the Commission should Lave visited the coul flelds.An investigation of tbe manner in which the men were living would have helped, he thought, But the Industrial Disputes enquiries Act permits of considerable leeway to Boards appointed there- under, und it was nor considered ad- visuble (vo suggest the manner in which they should function.Mr, Murdock explained that he personally had sent a may from hig Deparument In urder to procure first-hand in- lornuution regarding conditions, who lind heen warned not to enter the coul flelds.While stating that no mun could dispute his sympathy for a whole day's wage for a whole day's buy, Mr.Murdock asserted, \u201cI um not ready now nor in the years to come to concede that because some employees feel thut they are not being given that, thut they are justified in staying on the job and pretending that they are at work und to tell the world at lurge that they will cut the output and thus penalize the employer.\u201d Mr.Murdock further the remarks of Mr.stated that Irvine regarding were not accurate, as the coal miners | in the West had been reduced to practically the same figure as that being paid in the Lust, The Prime Minister stated that if the revival of the Commission which previously sat were asked for and could assist, it would be revived, and suid that the Government is to satisfy ull parties to the dispute.The commission when it sul had power tu examine utider vuth anyone whom they chuse to call.He pointed out that Royal Commission, which some uf the Members suggested, was incapable of accomplishing any more \u2018than this.anxious Hon.Mr.Crerar thought the l\u2019rime Minister's suggestion was the proper one and expressed the hope that a settlement would he speedily arrived at., Hon.Mr.Kennedy, replying to a question during the past week, stated that since the authorization of the National Railway loans at the last session of Parliament, $34,035,553.72 Lad been advanced to the Canadian Northern Railway and bonds had been guaranteed to the amount of $25,000- 000.The Grand Trunk Railway has received $3¢,200,857,05 id money ud- vanced and had bonds guaranteed to the extent of $25,000,000.Advances to the Receiver of the Grand Trunk Pacific Ruflway amounted to $1,651,- 34188.Guaranteed interest paid hy the Dominion amounted to $2,138,- 335.46.There were no loans guarau- teed.This stutement he explained as under date of March 25th, 1922, Sir Lomer Gouin, Minister of Justice, outlined the intention of the Government with regard to amending : , of the \u201ccountry cousins.\u201d wages being paid in Western Canada ' the Criminal Code so as to permit judges of the various criminal courts | to send juvenile delinquents to special tars or schools of agriculture instead of the penitentiarles.This attitude, he said, would be disclosed when legislation to amend the criminal code is introduced.Hon.Mr.Kennedy, Minister of Railways, informed the House that tor his services as President of the Hoard of Directors of the Canadlan National Railways, D.B.Hanna received in 1921, $35,000, and in directors\u2019 fees an additional $2,000.For Lis services in different capacities in connection with the Government lines, A.J.Mitchell had received $20,000 in salary and $2,000 in DIrectors\u2019 fees, Hon.A.B.Copp, Secretary of State, said that no tenders had been asked for by the Cunadian National Parks Branch tor the placing of monuments on historic sites, but that tenders had been called for the purpose of getting prices.Tenders were called from firms in Central Canada for the approximate number of monuments required there.The results obtained from these tenders were to serve as a guide in the purchase of monuments destined for more remote points and in the selection of material for other monuments.E ARE pleased to announce that Mr.Rene Neveu who fins heen

Genoa conference.It was set into motion by Lloyd George when the Washington conference wax seen to be funciioning with eect and he ru Vited all nations to attend.IL was intended to he for the purpose of stabilizing the business affairs of Europe, but at the first meeting to arrange for the general program l\u2019re- mier Iriand struck a wrong note and was dismissed from office hy the Chamber of Deputics.The subject since has been a football and it was thougi t that it would be the political end of lloyd George.However on Monday the air was cleared.doth ut Paris and Loudon the members debated the topic.In both it was debated as haing a motion whieh iF Test meant ile Teles oi aus 42 0 wa the gov eriments, amd in both debates Lloyd George und PPuincaire won by large majorities, At Westminster Lloyd George made ane of lis famed fighting speeches, Ie did not ask for quarter and gave none, ridiculing the powers ontside rather than the official opposition, and vent : me distance in hitting at Lord Northeliffe and his papers.Again the wizard demonstrated that he was stroager than unÿ party or * combination and that he was the one man in whom the [louse had confi- deche in, his majority being zus.lie explaited the reasons for the conference as being primarily for the pur- pese of considering the problems of reconstructing economic Europe, whose condition he strikingly described as beiug: Europe, the richest of all continents» the continent which possesses the largest amonat of wecumulated wealth and certainly the rreatest machinery tor production of wealth the largest aggregate of human means, with highly civilized needs aud with highly civilized means of supplying those needs\u2014and there- Tore Europe the best customer in the world and of the world\u2014has heel impoverished by the greatest destruction of capital that the world has ever withessed, It Eu- ropealr countries had gathered together their mobile wealth in ome pyramid and set it on fire the result could hardly have been more complete as fur as the capital wealth of Europe is concerned.The war caused the conditions and the problems of peace make the solution all the more difficult.He encompassed the reparation question in & neat paragraph when he said: The trouble is due to the fact, not that you are exacting reparations, but that there is something to repair.If you alter the treuty of Versailles you do not wipe out reparations.You simply transfer the burden of them from Germany to France, England and Belgium, but in the main to France.You would transfer the burden from the sixty millions of people who were responsible for the devastation to the forty millions who are the victims of de- vastations so it is no use criticizing reparations.Meeting the criticism that England did not suffer from the effects of war the Premer said that in prewar days 2007, of her business was international trade.Now owing to the countries being unable to trade with one au- other they were unable to trade with England.Not until Europe's trade is stabilized is there hope for the better.He quoted Austria us being an example of what could be one by debased currency: saying that there 2 housewife had to he a financier to judge whether to buy her tood supplies in tne morning or afternoon, for often during the uay -money values would change 200(,.With Russia the Premier was willing to meet.He likened conditions 10 that of 125 years ago when Pitt was grappling with the French Revo).- tion.The government of Russia had not been trustworthy but who could tell When a new government wou:a take its jdace.The world needed what Russia could provide and if the Russians were prepared to recognize their obligations and live at peace with the world he would be williag tc negotiate with them, In Paris Raymond Poincaré was successful in his demand for a vote of support in his policy towards the confergnce.In some respects ithe debate was ironie for Poincare appealed for support on the ground that Lis tactics towards the conference were the same as those used at Bou- longue, Hythe and Cannes, conven- jently forgetting that Briand had been overthrown for this policy at the Cannes conference.The debate at times was bitter particularly between Tardieu, Clemenceau's supporter, and the Premier, yet it was only verbal Tardieu lining up with the majority when the vote was taken, The conference is now a certainty, .\u2018All ot Eurove will be at it, and per- bops Canada from this side.The United States will not participate, The Administration has decided that it is a purely European matter in which America has no interests.Ap- pagently the ylew of the government is that of the writer in the current Æ - - - IP - er number of an American naper who likens Europe to a prospective borrower ul a bank called America.Uncle Sam asks what his incom.18 und what he is doing with it.The borrower has to admit he is making Little attempt to live wuhin his earnings, and Uncle Sam closes tne conversation by saying that he can't trust money with those who cant trust themselves.In theory ne may he right, but it should be remembered that governments are not individuals.The business capacities of governments are nat placed ou a par with corporations in business affairs.We recognize it ai the side on thie vader and WU should be su on the other.Today governments represent only a state of mind.People have been tested during the past seven yeurs as never before.They have starved, fought and ex- hiausted themselves in support of thelr national pride.They cannot turn back their thoughts and war ways in a day or a year.If the I nited States were to join in this cudferonce the moral good would be great and the monetary obligations small Fire Protection Th province of Quebec is unique in the Dominion in the individual value ol some of its buildings in the rural districts, These are chiefly religious caifices built at great expense by the people of the parishes and are sup - posed to be fairly fire-proof, hut hup- penings of the years tell a somewhat different story.Even in the last year several of the largest churches have heen destroyed, cumulating in the destruction of the great church at £t.Anne de Beaupre.In some cases the fire had reached such proportions betore discovery that it wus impos: sible to put it out.hut in others bucket lines from wells or hand- pumping engines only were available to fight the flames.Municipal councils are supposed to see that proper protection is supplied, yet foolish thrift in waiting for action until the fire has come and gone is costing the province more than properly equipped stations would.l{ the councils will not do their duty then the government should sce that some measures ul precaution are taken.The author \u2018ities should dircet that modern equipment be kept and that it is ia good working order all the time.And from the number of fires caused by defective wiring it would seem neces- cary that provincial inspectors pass on the conditions in all public buildings every year.Question Day at Ottawa Monday was a general question day at Ottawa and the ministers were kept busy supplying information, on subjects ranging from the salaries paid to foremen to imports of food during the year.In reply to one question it was learned that Lhe government paid out $5,755.28 for flags last year.While another questioner learned that there were 209 employ- ces in the Incomes tax office in Monte real, Mr.Irvine learned that the first puyments made to Mackenzie & Mann were in 1900 and that the last pay ment was $51,870,016.56.Also that the total operating deficits on the government railways paid by the department totaled $46,097,072.56.Ingurance came in for its share of questioning, the government replying that 01 the Canadian Merchant Marine a value of $41.310,720 was carried last year, the premiums being $144,111.63.Thirty English and four American companies carrying the insurance.On the C.N.R.railways the policies totaled $112.590.358 and $500,646.52 was paid in premiums.On the Grand Trunk Pacific the premiums were $362,098.65, A long string of figures wag sup- piied to show tle imports of foods.The 1422 reports show 2,213,900 pounds of heef imported, 8,328,001 pounds of mutton, 1,115,801 of pork.During the year 145,088 barrels of green apples were brought in from the United States, while 9,482,126 dozen of eggs wore imported from \u201che world at large.Oieo import .licns dropped 500 p:° cent lart year, 130,634 pounds only being imported,

Lis final exit this week.The ex-em- peror of Austria is dead.To those who believe in fate Karl will serve as a model.The assassination of the Archduke Ferdinand set the fuse for the war and it also placed Karl as next in line to the throne of Austria- Hungary.Two years later he stepped to the tottering position, only to relinquish it when Germany fell.Since then he has lived in Switzerland and the Maderias.The Royalists tempted him to return to Vienna, but the powers of Admiral Horthy, Regent of Austria, were stronger and with poor grace he had to retire, His death merely closes the hook of upper court life.From all reports the man was simple and willing to serve his country, hut the divine right of kings has gone.It is necessary that a king be more than a puppet, and Karl was not.He leaves ¢ children one of whom may reign over what is left of his parent's kingdom, but it will se by\u2019 the wish of the people and not as 8 right, à ORMSTIOWN The ludy curlers must have been

Riding Places of Various Pests.Every farmer and poultryman has had his trials with rats.weasels and rodents catching the young chicks.It is a menace which all chicken raisers must recognize and meet as best they can.The best method of controlling these pests, experienced workers say, is to block up or remove all possible hiding places.It is also rdvisable to place the brooder houses in an open fleld at least 150 feet trom the nearest permanent building, stone wall or hedge, and not allow any refuse or material to be piled uear lo act as a harboring place for small animals.The floors of portable colony houses should be at least one foot from the ground, and the space underneath should be open and free, Permanent brooder houses should have cement floors, and the doors and the windows should be screened An Inexpensive Poultry House With | Open Front, with one-inch mesh wire fencing, Tj such precautions are taken rats and weasels usually do little damage, says the New York State College of Agriculture, If skunks, foxes and dogs bothet the chickens, a fence around the field often proves effective.The fencing should be five or six foet high and should be tacked at the hoitom ta boards that are sunk in the ground three or four inches.Skunks cap be trapped successfully during the open season.When a cat forms the habit of catching little chickens usually the only way to stop further loss is to kil?the cat.This may cause complications when the animal is a pet or à neighbor's property, but it is the Lesi remedy.Owls often kill many chickent that roost in trees or exposed places, They even enter the open windows of brooder houses and attack the chickens.To avoid this danger it is best tor the farmer to keep all the chicke ens, jndoors at night and to screen the windows, \u2014\u2014 Important to Raise Feed, It is hoped that greater pains wil) bo taken this year than in former Years to raise feed.The object should be first to meet the needs of the farm fn feeding the animals; second, to maintain the fertility of the soll in rotation, growing legumes end applying manure; third, to sell any surplus feed at profitable prices, The demand for all kinds of feed crops seems so great that it will not be eany to make a mistake, Ensliage Is Valuable Feed, While you are canning fruits and vegetables for your home, as you surely will, why not can (ensile) feed for your live stock?Ensilage may be called canned feed, and it is & very valuable feed for cows, sheep and beef cattle.The silo will be an wonderful how nat'raly de Lord cag | investment if you

trous fire eurly Saturday morning which orginated in the basement of the M.P.Myers hardware store und destroyad business blocks ana mercantile stocks aggregating in value nearly half a million dollars.Smoke was first seen coming from the Myers block at 1.40 A.AL and it was about 6 A.M.before the blaze was under control, A big stock of olls, paints and automibile tires in the Myers store added fuel intense that two fire walls between luildings failed ito check the spread of the conflagration.Twelve streams of water were poureu on the fire for hours but seemed to make little impression on it.About 400 soldiers from the Post, with their equipment, rendered efficient service in assisting the Platts- burgh fire department in fighting the blaze.Besides the Myers store which was a total loss, the Jacques drug store and all its contents was completely destroyed.Frank Finn's clothing store was gutted and contents ruined by smoke and water and Myron Gordon's shoe store was badly damaged.Many other buildings in the vicinity were scorched and their windows smashed.A double brick wall between Gordon's store and the Star Dry Goods store finally stopped the progress of the blaze.Falling walls brought down power wires and put out of business for a time industrial plants using electric power and the trolley service.Several firemen were slightly injureq by falling debris.The origin of the fire is a mystery.Over the rinn and Gordon stores were the offices of Dr.Stephenson and Dr.Bully in the second storey, while the third storey was the American Legion Fait

tea Was produced than was required throughout the World that the market dropped to a comparatively low point.So serious was the posi- tition of the growers in India, Ceylon and Java that they agreed

it rules among the Nosus, south of the Yangtse who have submitted to the rule of the Mandarins; it Is very prevalent among the other tribes; and almost every Chinese fam- lly that is not Christian believes in it, \u201cAn attempt made after the revolution to put down the trade of the medium has not succeeded.Outside of every town and near to every village are houses where the mediums are at the disposal of everybody who is prepared to pay for thelr services.They are willing to visit the othef werld and find out whose influence in the world of shades is working against the fortunes of the inquirer.\u201d Womanly Foresight.\u201cMaud wouldn't say a word to the reporter about her case unless he'd promise to print her picture.\u201d \u201cVanity, I suppose.\u201d \u201cNo;

that the number who could not speak English arriving during the lust decade was smaller than in the previous ten years, and that a majority of these had come to this country prior to Aug.1, 1914, and therefore had had time to learn the language hefure the census was taken.eu DEDUCTED We rather like the story of the old boa vivant who was told to stick one glass of port a day.\u201cWell, and how about the port?\u201d asked his doctor.\u2018Fine, doctor: only about six months in advance so far,\u201d replied the old reprobate, Town Topics (London).PUZZLING PSYCHOLOGY French Miners to Strike Against Daylight Saving Paris, March 31.\u2014The miners of Saint Pierre la Palud, near Lyon, spending most of their lives in darkness, cannot see the reason for day- ATHELSTAN Mrs.J.Law of Ormstown has been spending the past few weeks here with friends.Miss Hessie Humpson spent Saturday in Montreal.Miss Jessie Grant of 1eauharnois and Miss Lizzie Grant of Montreal were home for the week end.The Misses Vera Henderson and Jessie lLumsden spent Saturday in Malone, N.Y.Mrs.Henry Wilson spent a couple of days in Ormstown last week ut- tending a meeting of the WwW.C.T.U.Sub-executive.While there she was the guest of Mrs.Jus.Winter.Mr.Harland Howat of Montreal was home over the week end.Mrs.Geo, Burchell of Malone, N.Y.visited her sister, Mrs.Auger for a few days last week.Mr.and Mrs.J Sharpe visited friends in the city.Mrs.Wells Lumsden went to Saran- uc lake on Tuesday.The good wishes of her many friends go with her.recently ORMSTOWN Mr.Edwin Maw of Montreal the week end with his and Mrs, John Maw.Mr.Stewart Curroll of Galt, Ont, has returned home intending to reopen the bakery.Mrs.J.R.Campbell is ill pneumonia, Mrs.Jos, McWhinnle is confined to her bed with an attack of la grippe.James Lloyd and Orlando Soles are home from Grande ligne where they have heen attending school.Mrs.Frank Oliver wus the guest of her mother, Mrs.John Dawson.Huntingdon, last week.Mr.J.A, Cartier spent end in Montreal, J.FH.Tomson of Swanston.Vt.\u2026.spent the week eud at home.spent parcats, Mr.with the week Miss Agnes Orr of Montreal is visiting her parents, Mr.and Mrs.John Orr.Major Hewton, Principal of Orms- town Academy spent the wcek end in Montreal.FRANKLIN CENTRE Mrs.and lin, There Marlin is friends in and visiting relatives around Frank- wis never u better run of light saving and, accordingly, have called a strike in protest.In answer to the first demand of the miners that the application of the law be delayed, the directors respond- es that the railroud schedule made such application imperative.Next day half of the men arbitrarily reported for work at the former hours.!

Escadrille.\u201cThe cubs finally had to be sent to a 300 In Paris because they were too nervous under fire.The men of the squadron decided, after their experience with Whiskey and Soda, that there was something wrong with the old saying, \u2018As brave as a lion.\u2019 When a bombardment was going on, the cubs would roar, sure enough; but they roared with fright.They simply ran amuck with

Milner Mission has its amusing side, as the following story will show: The housing problem has become acute In Cairo as elsewhere, and officials nf the Government, not already provided with houses, are finding themselves in great difficulties owing to Increasing rents and lack of accommodation.The Government is therefore considering building, as rapidly as possible, som.?cheap houses for officials in order to relieve the pressure.Accordingly it has asked for a return, giving the size of the families of all those officials likely to be af- (ected by the scheme.Fearing this was a ruse to get some useful infor mation on the part of the Milner Mission, some fanatical Nationalists in the Government refused to fll in the required form until they had been assured by their colleagues that it would be obviously to their advantage to comply with the request, and to give the necessary Information.Owing to the maltreatment of cer- lain Egyptians by fanatieal Nationalists in the provinces because they received one of the members of the mission, the members have been lately in the habit nf going abont unannounced, and it has not been until after they have left a place that it has became known who the visitors were.One small town, however, having been told that a stranger had arrived, immediately closed {ts shops and organized processions demanding independence, only to find later on that no member of the Mil- ner Mission had been near them at all.\u201cAnd thus,\u2019 \u2018remarked one man ruefully, \u201ca whole day's business was lost!\u201d In another case,

dates for the fair in Malone this year from Sept.12-15 to Sept.18-22, When the former dates were chosen by the fair officers they did not know that Potsdam had already selected those dates.Both fairs being In the same territory a conflict of dates would injure both.The new dates chosen by the local society will avoid this and also a confiict with the Cttawa fair and State fair at Syracuse and give our exhibition a clear field.As the Plattsburg fair has been advanced to the last week in August there will be no racing cireuit in which both will participate as formerly, as their exhibitions are too far apart.Malone is therefore acting independently in formulating its programme of stakes and purses, Its early closing stakes announced Saturday include four $2,000 events, one of $1,600 and

lush chairs at the win: dow that commanded the best view of the rallrond tracks, folded her lands on her alpnen lap and walted, à thiv gentle simile of expectancy on het anxious face, The train which would be in short ly would bring Roger's fluncee.Every thing was ready for her\u2014thie house cleaned and po'ished from top to but tom, both spare-rvoms iu the pink of condition, She hoped that this Mary weuld not be exactly as Roger had glowingly de scribed her iu his letter, yet she prow ised herself that no watter what Mary turned out to be she wus going to love her and cherish her for Roger's sake She recalled Lhe passage in his letter \u201cMary Is the most cupuble und eff.cient girl 1 have ever met, so thot oughly able to manage herself und everybody.A wonderful girl, you wil\u2019 admire her from the bottom of you tieurt, mother dear.She's so energetic und so efficient, there's go one like her.I'll be down on Saturday and by tha time I hope you two will have become acquainted and good friends!\u201d It frightened little Mrs.Linwood Just a bit, Site had always longed fm a daughter, she wanted to mother het and cuddle her and give her all sorts of advice, but the girl Roger described In his letter\u2014she was awed by all her capability and subconsciously she wished that Roger's girl would be a dear little thing who needed a moth er's love and comforting.For yours she had planned how it would be when Roger vould brig home the girl of his molce, how she would make her feel at home and at ease, relieve her of that strained atmosphere that se often comes when a young wothian tir vw meets her future mother-in-law.But vow it would be just the other way.A shriek from an approaching loco motive made little Mrs.Linwood clone her eyes, secking, perhaps, Inward strength to meet Mary in a fow nin ntes\u2014the litt!&-depot was only a fev nundred feet from the house.\u201cHeavens on earth!\u201d Gabriela fron the kitchen rame screaming in the room.\u201cLook.lonk, Mis Linwood what's happened!\" Mrs.Linwood jumped from her chair and then looked where Gabriels pointed.In the distance where the train made the curve lay the last conch of the traln overturned.torr from Jts coupling, a swarm \u2018of people collecting.The little woman turned pale, he: first thought of Mary, \u201cMy shawl\u2019 whe whispered.hoarsely.and when Ca brieln had laid it around her shaking

Oh, bring her here, please! We can care for her; I've two bedrooms ready and Gabriela will telephone for Doctor Fern.\u201d \u201cAll right,\u201d agreed the trainman readily, \u201cI'll bring her here in a min- uate,\u201d and hurried out.\u2018Mrs.Linwood turned to Gabriela \u201cCarry Miss Mary up to the south spate room and when the man brings the woman have him take her up to the north room.\u201d Mrs, Linwood undressed Mary here self and, putting on her one of her own lavender-scented nightdresses, tucked her in the big four-poster.Doctor Fern arrived and after a thorough examination declared a sprained ankle was all that was wrong.\u201cThank God,\u201d whispered Mrs.Linwood fervently.\u201cShe's very precious to me and to my son, And oh, ! almost forgot\u2014there's some one In the north room.1 haven't had time to look In\u2014QGabriela\u2019's there\u2014] can\u2019t leave Mary.\u201d After a while Doctor Fern looked in again.\u201cWell, I fixed up the other patient, too.She's not a bit frightened por faint.A cut on her head and a few bruises; that's all.Pretty soon the young girl opened à palr of puzzled violet eyes, Mrs.Linwood hastened to explain and soothe.\u201cThere's been an accl- dent, Mary, dear.Nothing much; you're just a wee bit hurt, and you're safe here with me, Mrs, T.lnwood, dear, Roger's mother.\u201d \u201cAn accident?\u2019 repeated the gir slowly, still dazed.\u201cOh, I remember now.1 was sitting on the same scat with another girl and~\" she clung to us hand.At the sudden touch Jact \u2018orgot his father, his business\u2014every thing but the girl at his side.\u201cJocelyn!\u201d he cried hoarsely ane \u2018o\u2018ded her in his arms.And Jocelyn, her velvet eyes lifted to his, let him see the love and surren- fer In them.\u201cYou're going to marry me, girl!\u201d he sald, shaking her a little to emphasize dis seriousness, \u2018as soon as we can ge! the license after we dock.\u201d \u201cAll\u2014all right,\u201d sald Jocelyn, breath.ess, but happy.True to his word, Jack, the day the tow reached port, went up te the city , the firm.one from his father.father! hall to make Investigations.\u2018Imen he went around to the post office for his accumulated mail\u2014bills, a letter from Poor What 8 surprise he wus going to get when he received the letter Jack had just mailed.Yet father got in his sarprise first.\u201cDear Juck\u2014Don't know where this will find you.I shall be in Qeorgiun bay very shortly.Am going to marry Mrs, Cynthla Arnold.Everything OK at factory.Yours, \u201cDAD.\u201d Slowly Jack folded the letter asa slipped !t In his pocket.So his fathe was going to be married and going to Georgian bay for a honeymoon.He knew the lady by hearsey\u2014knew that the was quietly well-to-do, of unas.mailable social pnsition.This uner- pected alliance on his father's part weuld not make the bargeman's daughter any more welcome to hls father Well, as far as that went, he would give up his father, his business, every.Ming, before Jocelyn.And then Jocelyn gave him the greatest surprise of all.\u201cIt's all right about the license, hon ey,\u201d he said.Then, holding out hi father's letter, \u201cas long as you're cow- Ing into the family, you might as well know you're going to have a step-inoth.er-in-law.?hope he will be happy.Ne one could be as happy as we are going to be?\u201d But Jocelyn was reading.\u201cAm golng to marry\u2014why, Jack, how funny!

When spring came we decided to go down the Mackenzie and cross the mountains at Fort McPherson, but on reaching Fort Simpson my three friends decided to turn back and get out of the country.I was then alone, but did not want to go out yet, so joined the Hudson Bay Company and stayed in the country two years later.Our steam launch, the first oil burner on the Mackenzie, had changed hands several times and was finally abandoned at Fort Norman.Here I took the engines out and abandoned the launch at a spot which later turned out to be the oll fields of the north.The engines were later used to run the electric light plant at Fort Simpson.There is a cropping of coal in the bank near Fort Norman.I tried to see if the coal would burn, It did burn slowly.I then threw the ashes into the river and thought that the fire was out, but on my return next year, 1 found it all ablaze, and volumes of smoke piping out from behind the bank.I climbed up the bank and saw a large hole which was caved in and from which the smoke was coming.Captain Mills of the steamer Wrigly said, \u201cYou have done a fine thing now; you have set fire to the country.\u201d I was alarmed, but my old friend, Mr.Johnson, laughed as much as to say that fit did not matter much.The country is rich in mineral, Some things I know such as galena, are in unlimited quantities.There are traces of gdld, mica, iron, copper and pitch-blende.When I left the country I took samples including some black crystal, of which at that time I did not know the nature.1 went to Butte City to have a look at the copper mines there, and got in touch with the miners.They told me that the black crystals were iteh-blende.\u2014J.Trewhella in the to Mail and Empire.MAPLE SUGAR MAKING.Art Learned From the Indians by Early Settlers.The making of maple sugur ana syrup has become but a memory in the recollection of residents in rauny of the older parts of Canada where even the woodlots have given us their places to cultivated fields, Th industry is still, however, an impor*- ant one over large areas in Quebee and to a less extent In Ontario and the provinces down by the sca.Sugar making from the maple, which is confined entirely to this continent, had a very early beginning.Before the advent of the white man the Indian had learned to extract and concentrate the sap of the maple tree.On the approach of spring the trees were gashed with .the tomahawk in a slanting direction and beneath the opening made wus Inserted a wooden chip or spout te direct the fluid drop by drop into th receptacle resting on the ground The sap wus caught in a birch dish and boiled in earthen kettles.The small quantity of dark, thick syrup this made, was the only sugar available to the Indians, and is stated by eurly writers to have been highly prized.The early settlers from the Old Lund learned from the Indians the art of sugar making, and indeed fol- fowed for many years thelr crude methods of manufacture.Even yet primitive equipment and methods are stated to be used in back ecc- tions of the country that turn out their annual crop of dark, inferior syrup and sugar.For perhaps a century the white man followed very closely the primitive methods of the Indians, save the substitution of iron or copper kettles for vessels of clay or bark.In tte early days before the timber acquis: cd much value the axe continued to be used for tapping the trees, the sap was caught in wooden troughs ans conveyed in buckets on the shoulders with a sup yoke to a central potne to be boiled.No sugar bush was fully equipped without snowshoes, which were frequently found neces sary in gathering the sap.The boiling was done in large iron kettlen suspended from a pole in the open woods in a sheltered locution witn no protection from the sun, rain ot snow or the nshes, falling leaves, moss and bits of bark that wei» driven about by the wind.The maple products made by this erude method were strong in flavor, * dark in color and variable in quality.Until about fifty years ngo there was little Improvement made fn the methods of sugar makers; but sine that time the advance has kept pai e with that in other branches of agi.culture until it has become a more or less highly organized commereial industry.An early improvement wus the substitution of the auger for the axe \u2018n tapping, coopered buckets took the place of the birch bark \u201ccuso\u2019 or hewn sap trough, while the kettle gave way to the exaporating pan, which has, in latter years, developed into the modern evaporator with cor rugated bottom and separate compartments, Not alone for the con- gervation of the life of the tree, but also for the cleanliness in sugar making, the wooden spout has almost disappeared in the most advanced sections, in fact the tendency now is toward the use of metal ir every ar ticle of equipment with which the Kap, syrup or sugar comes in contact.Furthermore, the increasing cost of labor is being met by the ingenious inventor, who has provided facilities for taking full advantage of the law of gravitation in handling the uid, which in a well-equipped plant flows | uf its own accord from the collecting tank to the storage vat, from thence to the evaporator and, when bofled \u2018o a proper consistency, into the re :elving can.Indeed where the pro file of the sugar orchard will permit of it, pipe lines are laid to conduct the sap from outlying collecting centres to the camps where evaporation takes place.With all the advance that has tak.sn place in manipulation, sugar making has not lost Its romantic side.\u2018Sugaring off\u2019 at the sugar camps In the woods is still looked forward to by young and old, who regard the event as a social feature uffording rare enjoyment.The tramp to the woods on a spring day, the aroma of the escaping steam, the partaking from a wooden paddle by means of a chip-like scoop, the hot syrup just oun the verge of solidifying into sugar, or the tasting of the \u2018wax\u2019 that has been allowed to harden on tne clean snow, all serve to inspire the raminiscent storyteller and to awaken the amorous instincts of the budding youths.Such was the sugaring off of decades ago, and such It is to-day, where sugar urchards are operated for from twa to tour weeks in the spring in cer tain sections year after year.\u2014J.B.3pencer in Canadian Forestry Jour we Paler Eyes Result of City Life.A French professor has just told the Academy of Sciences of Paris that after long residence In Paris a person's eyes grow paler in color and the hair undergoes a kind of bleach- fng.In time, he believed, dark-haired persons with brown eyes would be rare in Paris.A medical correspondent writes: It is well known that pre longed absence of direct sunlight produces lighter coloring of the skin, hair and eyes.Brown eyes are less sensitive to sunlight than gray eyes\u2014 a fact which explains why northern races have Hrht and southern races dark eves.Pigmentation (coloring) Is in direct proportion to the Intensity of the light In which people live.But the change Is slow.One thousand three hundred years have not made the fair West Saxon of Somerset and Gloucester similar in complexion to the Welshman of Glamorgan and Car- marthen.It is found that short brunettes tend to die out In cold, sunless climates because they cannot eat enough food to keep them warm.When Mansfield \u201cGot in Bad.\u201d Richard Mansfield, the famovus actor, was very fond of sweetbreads, and at a time when sweethreads were not generally accepted as being fit foud for human consumption.While playing in Canada he was forced to go to the slaughter houses In order to get the tid-bit, and this fact was soon heralded about the town.Small boys began to follow him, half in fear and balf In curiosity, yelling to those who asked the reason of their parade that the man they were following \u201cate innards\u201d of animals.As a result It became nolsed about that Mansfield, although a great actor, was \u2018more than s little queer.\u201d -\u2014 \u2014\u2014 ors oh ny pea SALES BY C.A.GAVIN On THURSDAY, April 20th, at the residence of John Flynn,

writers of fiction are neither interested nor artistic enough to lay the background of their tales in their own country and to interpret phases of Canadian life, the luck is sometinies supplied by Americans.Usually the lutter write about their own country and their own problems, but frequente ly they turn their attention here.Recently we have been able to see the Kawartha Lakes district through the eyest and brain of Joseph Herges- beinier, one of the very best Amerf- van flection writers, whose work is regarded seriously and favorably in Europe as well as in the United States.The steel districts of Peunsylvania form the locals\u2019 of much of his writing, as in his famous \u2018Three Black Pennys\u2019 and in his later \u201cSteel.\u201d He hus also been roaming further afield, among the swamps of Louisiana, and now, in the lake region of Ontärio.The Canadian story, \u2018\u2019Scarlet Ibis\u2019 appears in the Saturday Evening Post.It is of interest because af tis analysis of contrasts between Indians und whites,\u201d which strikes every observant visitor in our northern resorts, and because of its treatment of the difficulties and dangers involved in too close intimacy between the two peoples.It is of local interest also in ils description of social customs among certain tourists in the lake regions, and in its interpretation, by a master hand, of the scenic wonders of our North.There are references Lo Peterboru, Foronto, Pittsburg.The actual love story is artificial, a defect apparent in much of Hergesbeimer\u2019s writing, but the atmosphere and the intelligence be hind the story are in accord with Hergesheimer's genius.As for social customs, the contrast ls between wealthy and pleasure loving Americans, spending the summer in a northern camp, and the more primitive and simple Indians and alf-breeds.The women of the party drank whiskies and sodas, smoked cigarettes, indulged in broad humor, and yet, in their dress and their looks, were \u2018smart,\u2019 \u2018\u2018delightful\u201d and \u201clovely.\u201d The men, in addition to fishing, made ivory dice skitter over the floor, with shifting of money, sil- rer and bank notes.The Indian men, in contrast, acted 18 efficient, hard-working guides, and the Indian women were also different, The \u2018hero\u2019 of the tale, an Ameri can dissatisfied with the frivolity and aimlessness of \u201csociety\u2019\u2019 and leaning at first to the primitive ideals, compares the two types.His Indian gulde \u2018was closely knit Into his setting and his life.\u201d He was \u2018in harmony with the elements of his life and death,\u201d a state impos sible for the American.There was between the latter and natural existence a bar, a chasm.He bad lost what the Indian in a great measure had preserved.On the other hand, the city man asserted in a silent impatience, he had gained enormously over the Indian who, after all, outside his skill in a canoes and in the trapping of furs, was an ignorant figure of a race condemned by civilization to a swift oblivion, whereas Graves hime self was the result of the society\u2014 the energy and (deals \u2014 that was forming the earth for {ts own responsible superior end.He had at that moment a fleeting vision of the camp on Oak Island.He saw his sister, Ettie, with her hair artificially crimped, brightening her {ips with an odorous gold-cased lipstick.There was her husband, Sanford, a young man, bracing his youth with a champagne cup.And Sanford\u2019s mother, playing auction at gambler's stakes every afternoon, every night, and, when she appeared, a majority of the mornings.If this was, as it was generally considered, the accomplishment of clvi- lization, the top of leisure and money and art, was the Indian so very bad ty off, so abjectly ignorant?Theoretically, the American liked the Indian, but a visit to the village brought a reaction.Graves walked over à road of deeply rutted sand, a neglected, sorry way between rank greenery and early-blooming golden rod.Crows in nearby trees kept up 2 harsh scolding rattle of sound; and away from the lake a burning heat a cloud of mosquitoes, enveloped him, The road twisted, and a house, a one-story cabin without glassed windows and streaked with faded and blistered paint, appeared.It had a small straggling vegetable patch, a space of rusted and broken wire fence; and at the door three diminutive children, partly white and incredibly dirty, rogarded him with drooping mouths.Another dwelling was visible across the way, neater and painted within a year; but its neatness was, if possible, more depressing than the frank squalor op- posite\u2014it seemed isolated, incredibly dreary, marked with tragic futility.It was the latter, more than any other aspect, that oppressed Graves as he entered the centre of the village.Hardly more bullt up than the outskirts, there was a dingy store at a single crossroads, with a meagre window of casual supplies, a dreary brick church and a hall on the left, and scattered houses submerged in disorderly bushes, rough grass and trees.The effect of the whole was that of a forgotten and neglecim), a deserted, place; there was no evidence of its Ojibway origin; it was sommonplace, saturated with the spirit of poverty, infinitely melancholy.The unforeseen atmosphere of nullity, of collapse, assaulted his basie individuality.Business women of Kansas City are to have a downtown clubhouse.Doctor's Little Wheeze, \u201cBut, doctor, I'm In no position to undergo an operation for appenafcitis.\u201d

original Vancouver.It was the centre of old Gastown before the fire of 1886.Many of the buildings which face upon it are becoming mossy.Not a few are third-class hotels.Occupying the second and third floors of one of these are a pair of smart-looking girl stenogruph- ers, half a dozen young men clerks, à long table containing many thousands of cards-\u2014ach >f which \u2018epre- sents a human unit\u2014iund a stooped and exceedingly cadaverous individual of 45, This prematurcly-aged man is as much the proprietor of the institution as if he owned it.luv is a dyspeptic crunk, so cranky and so dyspetic that he cau only eat one meal a day\u2014and that tea and tcast.The name of this mar is E.Winch, and the institution he runs is all that Winch Work In is left of the O.B.U.in British Columbia, The latter statement Is zencral and means to he only approximate, In any event ft is the only active and outward manifestation of the One Big Union which flourished in a dozen places au year ago.So fa ag one may judge of the position today compared with what It way in the weeks preceding the general strikes in Vancouver and Winnipeg last year, the O, B.U.hus steadily lost ground and is not au real factor in the labor situation in British Columbia with one single exception-\u2014and that is in the case of the loggere union.Winch was ut the heud of the loggers\u2019 organization when the general strike tovk place.Its collapse did not cause him to quit, though it liad that effect on many other active organizers, but in the case of the loggers the claim Is made that their O.B.U.is stronger to-day than fit ever hus been before, Winch is a curious individual in more ways than his habit of getting ong without diuner or supper, He claims to have reduced (he art of striking to un exact science, so as to play both ends ugainst the middle and the angles as well, Because men are thrown out ol work and consequently suffer in any large strike he does not believe in a general tie-up of industry.Nothing so crude 28 that is on Mr, Winch's program\u2014 which may account for the fuet that up to this date he enjoys an eminence of comparative success in a sea of D.B.U.failure.Winch belleves in compelling the industry\u2014if he canto finance and maintain the strikes whiie the latter are proceeding.He points quite proudly to the episode of the Capilano Timber Co.The 0.B.U.called a strike there six months ago and two logging camps were quickly tied up.The men wanted an eight-hour day, a $% minimum and a lot of reforms in accommodation.The cumpany sent out agents looking for new workmen and found them.To get them to go to work the company improved wages and conditions to some extent and was soon in full swing again.There was neither picketing nor other interference by the union or former employes, and apparently the company won out.But not according to Winch, who claims that everything was done on his schedule.\"Their \u2018scabs\u2019 were our own men,\" he declares.\u2018We furnished them, though the company did not realize it, and to-day we are in their camps just as strongly as before and under improved conditions of pay and accommodation.For a feature act for the coming season Winch has his eyes on the paper mills.Eight hours and a five- dollar minmum are his aims in this Industry.But nothing 1s farther from his thoughts than to attempt to tie it up all at once.Workers are to be called out in one mill at a time, according tu the program mapped out, so that while that mill is Idle they can still find useful and remmunerative employtwent in other plants up and down the coast, When the time has come to recommence in No.1 mill, the O.B.U.representatives in another plant will have found something to complain about and the shutdown stunt will be repeated there, with a loss of time to the workers extending very little beyond the limits of a welcome holiday.In the card-index on the big table at O.B.U.headquarters are listed 17,000 loggers in \u2018\u2018good standing.\" The larger half are in I.C., but organizers are busy around Fort William, in Northern Ontario, and are now pushing on into the Quebec woods.Euch man pays dues of $1 per month.Apparently they pay promptly, for large expenditures are made from Winch's office.Ten thou- sund dollars has lately been invested in printing cliarges for propaganda.More than 50,000 O.B.U.buttons have been bought from an uptown store at 30 cents each; $1,000 per month has been contributed to the Winnipeg strikers defence fund.Altogether there is an air about the shabby oflices as if somebody with cash in the bank wus udministering things.[n ore particular Winch has ween forced to confess defeat.Many Orientals labor in various capacities in B.C.lumber camps.The Japanese have

Not only has the number of head decreased yearly.The weight per head: which was 334 kilograms (735 pounds) in 1914, in 1920 had diminished to 278 kilograms (612 pounds).This was due in part to the exportation of younger animals.The increased European consumption of meat from 1914 to 1918 was due to the war.The cessation of hostilities in 1918 was not foreseen, s9 that Argentina was nof ready to face the actual crisis of decreased de- wand, Excessive use of credit by producers had led to the present situation, \u2018(A buyers\u2019 strike has heen forced on the consumers\u2014just as it has been forced on the Americun public.) The \u2018Rural Society\" is seeking to bring all producers more closely together for the purpose of financial cooperation and the dissemination of recessary information, It is also suggested that an export tax be placed on meat to yield 121,000,000 pesos, this tax to be imposed in prosperous years only.In the present crisis emergency laws may be necessary, but, in any case, the country's interests must be considered first, To increase exports it is suggested tkat meat carcasses from the Argentine should be dressed to meet foreign requirements, In Belgium, for instance, it is said by Mr.A.Crabb (official veterinarian of the New Zealand Government in London) tha New Zealand meat (if refrigeratea according to Belgian laws) may be sent without including the viscera This difficulty has not yet been met by Argentine shippers.Judging by figures published by the Pastoral Review (Great Britain) England had about four months\u2019 supply of meat in cold storage on Nov.20, 1921.This would seem to point! th an early resumption of imports from Argentina.Another interesting factor is the report that North American meats may be excluded from the British markets.ar NEW YORK PASSES MANY NEW LAWS lALBANY, March 29.\u2014Governor Miller signed today the Cotillo bill, which provides that the State Superintendent of Insurance may revoke the license of an insurance agent for the violation of any law, or if the Agent has made material misstatements in his application for a license or has shown his incompetency to do business.The Governor also signed the Swift bill, providing that marriage by æ person under 18 shall not constitute absolute right of annulment.Under this law annulment is left to the dis- «cretion of the court.Another bill to which he affixed hig signature was that providing that all school teachers who are not citizens shall be disqualified from holding thelr positions unless they take immediate steps to become citizens, Senator Thayer.Senator W.T.Thayer, during the 145th annual session of the New York State Legislature just closed, introduced thirty-six bills in the upper house and up to the present time seven of these have been placed on the statute books, while several others are in the hands of Governor Miller awaiting official action.Among the bills passed were those which dealt with conservation law measures, while local measures affecting Franklin and St.Lawrence counties were given careful attention and are among the thirty day bills before the governor.The record of the local leglslator has been rarely exceeded in the number of bills introduced and shows that Mr.Thayer has kept in close touch with the affairs of the Senatorial district.\u2014Chateau- gay Record.PIPE DOWN!

but while the operating charges are going down the fixed charges are going up rapidly, so that what it saved in one department is being very rapidly lost in another.The operating loss by roads was as follows: Canadian Government lines, $5,587.295; Canadian Northern, $6,- 154,256; Grand Trunk Pacific, $3,997.- 488.The reduction in operating deficits by roads has been as follows: Canadian Govertiment lines, $5,862,- 578; Canadian Northern, $9,866240; Grand Trunk Pacific, $6,137,025.The Grand Trunk did a great deal better than the other roads, having net operating revenue of $5,678,739, or $450,000 better than in 1920.Dut as the estimate of Hon.Dr.Reid, former minister of railways, of its interest charges for the year, was a little over $20,000,000, it probably failed to meet its fixed charges by about $14,000,000.The fixed charges on the Government roads in 1920 were slightly over $2,000,000, which, of course, did not include those of the Grand Trunk.It is upparently quite within the mark to say that these fixed charges have increased by about $5,000,000 during the year, bringing the total fixed charges on all Government lines, excepting the Grand Trunk, up to nearly $38,000,000.Add to these the flxed charges amounting to $14,000,000 that must be made up for the Grand Trunk, and the operating deficit of $16,359,022, and the total deficit on the roads owned hy the Government last year would seem to be in the neighborhood of $68,000,000.It should also be taken into account that, large as this Is, it makes ne allowance for fixed charges on the Intercolonial and National Tratiscon- tinental, which, were they added, would probably mean unother $18,- 000,000, In making comparisons with the deficit for last year, it should be borne in mind that the foregoing figures relate to the Grand Trunk as well as the other Government roads, whereas Hon, Dr.Reid's figures, given In his annual statement, did uot include the Grand Trunk.In short, the situation fs that while $21,000,000 saved through reduction in the operating loss, about one-fourth of this Las probably been lost through the ircrease in fixed charges, which cannot be reduced during the period of the loans on which they are paid.51,000,000 PASSENGERS Four Killed and 240 Injured in 1921\u2014 Other Fatalities Ottawa, March 31.\u2014Of more than $1,000,000 passengers carried on Canadian railroads during the year ending December 31, 1421, only four were killed, and 240 injured, according to statistics contained in the annual report of the Board of Railway Commissioners for Canada, tabled in the House this afternoon.The total number of passengers carried during the year was 51,318,422, A total of 185,177 employees were engaged in railway work during that period, and of this number 91 were killed and 1,344 injured.Highway crossing accidents during the year in question, numbering 185, accounted for u total of TU persons killed and 214 injured.Of these 114 were automobile accidents: 41 horse and vehicle accidents, and 34 involved pedestrians.During the last \u2014- five years TT cidents had occurred, death of 294 persons and 905.There were à total of 1,821 accidents on railways during the year, in which 243 persons were killed and 1,028 injured, as compared with 2,093 accidents covering\u2019 254 killed and 2,330 injured during the previous twelve months.highway crossing ac: involving the injuries to HE WISDOM OF SOLOMON Lisbon, March 31st\u2014\"\u201cGold Fang\u201d is tough.He has told his Judge go several times during the course of his trinl on charges of being impli- cuted In the assassination of leading Government officials here last October.He is constantly interrupting the dignity of the court by announcing in loud tones that he was ready to kill anybody, including the present Premier, Cunha Ieal.He was also perfectly willing to kill himself, and was only stopped from doing so by the difficulty of securing a weapon, he said.This morning the Judges determined to test \u201cGold Fang.\" An un- Jjoaded revolver was laid on the desk where he could reach it from the dock.When he renewed his avowal of a desire to commit suicide the revolver was indicated.\u201cGold Fang\u201d picked it up pointed it at his temple and then laid it on the table.He said he had thought better of it.has been | THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER | ONLY GOOD COWS GIVE GOOD RETURNS Conclusion Reached by Committee Investigating Cost of Milk \u201cThe average operator would be forced out of the dairy business if he had to pay interest on investment and buy his feed at market prices.\u201cIf a farmer id satisfied 10 work at producing nflik to get little or no return on his money invested in the wilk production enterprise, and take _ 4 chance on being able to make some profits in his other farm enterprises, he can be satisfied with poor cows.!

half an ounce is in your brain tissues; the balauce is in the red corpuscles of your blood.Of brimstone (otherwise called sulphur) there are about four ounces in your bones and teeth.It wa.originally a Tolcanic product.But one should remember that all the mineral elements here mentioned were at one time cmntained in the rocks of the earth\u2019s crust.Your body Is three-fifths water and one-fifth carbon.If all the hydrogen Ît contains, or an equivalent quantity, were separated out, it would fill 4 balloon big enough to lift you whome tha m da © tis slouds.Birds and Live Wires.Why birds can perch and remain unharmed on live trolley wires is a question that doubtless has often occurred to many people.In explanation, a recent writer says: It is perfectly true that the trolley wire carries an electric current strong enough to kill not only birds but human beings.However, to do any harm the current must pass to the ground through the body of the bird or person.The connection of the body with the ground need not be direct, but It must exist in some way.A person could sit on the trolley wire just as safely as the birds do, but, if he should stretch out his hand and touch another wire, or an iron pipe, running directly or indirectly to the ground, the full force of the current would be grounded by the connection made with his body.In the case of the birds, there {8 nothing to afford a ground connection, and they are in consequence unharmed, the glectric current passing through the wire under them as water would pass through a main on which a person might be sitting, without wetting him.\u2014 DEFYING THRE HANGMAN, Onses on Record of Prisoners Whe Survived.There is no man living to-day whe has actually been hanged, but thers sre many records of resuscitation after hanging.One of these belongs to the year 1264.Mme.de Balsham was condemned to death for harboring thieves.She was hanged and left suspended on the gallows from Monday morning until sunrise on Thursday.Yet, on being taken down, she revived.Henry III.granted her a pardon.In 1650 an Oxford servant girl wus hanged for the murder of her child.When handed over to the doctors for dissection she revived.In- Quiries were made as to her sensations during suspension, but she remembered nothing, saying her revival was just like waking from a deep sleep.A housebreaker named Smith was HEMMINGFORD Mra 8S.B.Lytle spent a few days in Montreal last week.Mr.and Mrs.Jos.McKerryher are visiting their daughter ,Mrs.Speck at Worcester, Mass, ~~ M.W.F.Orr is confined to the house suffering from a bad cold.The special collection for the Russians amounted to $75.70 1n St.Andrew's church and $35 in Kuox church, Robson street.Miss Martha Simpson is visiting in \u2018 Montreal, Mr.and Mrs, J.C, McKay spent the week end in town.Mr.Chas.Dunemore was real on Friday.in Mont- Miss R.Curry, Champlain, N.Y.has been visiting Mrs.Patterson ; Simpson.There isu rumor of organizing hanged at Tyburn in 1705, and a re- : prieve arrived after he had bean suspended for fifteen minutes.On being taken down he revived.A man named William Duell had a hard fate.He was hanged in London in 1740, and was carried Surgeons\u2019 Hall to be anatomized.Before the doctora could start he came to life again.That ought to have won him another chance, but Ît did not.He was transported, a fate not always preferable, At Cork a man was hanged in 1767 for street robbery.On being taken down he was hurried to a surgery, where an incision was made in his windpipe.He recovered so rapidly that he went to the theatre the same evening.After Fauntleroy, banker and forger, was executed in 1824, a rumor got about that he had escaped death by the Insertion of a silver tube in his throat.This prevented strangulation, and he was restared to cone sciousness.There is, however, no confirmation of this strange story.A prisoner was taken from Cardiff Prison and placed in the dock in London on a charge of murdering his wife.Till then he had never heard of her death, but before he could realize his position he was convicted and sentenced to death! Then he implored the warders and the governor to tell him the dute of his wife's death.\u2018My good man,\u201d sald the governor, \u2018you have only a short time to live.Don\u2019t worry about such a detail.\u201d Day after day, however, the prisoner asked this question.until he got the answer.\u201cBut I was safe in prison on that date,\u201d he exclaimed.\u201cThen why didn't you say so at the trial \u201d \u2018\u2018Because I was neither asked nor allowed to say anything.\u201d He was released.Our Legislatures.Canada has escaped class repre sentation in its popular Legislatures.A feature

Henderson and Miss Florence MacKenzie, of Dodslund, Sask.Henderson, who founded the town of Dodsland and is a prominent farmer in the district and proprietor of the weekly paper there, and Miss MacKenzie, Dods- land, school teacher, whose romance has been watched with igterest by all the willagers, pulled off the elopement on June 21 during a sports carnival, while hundreds of people were assembled in town.They slipped into the residence of ; the minister, were married in record : time, and raced a mile in an automobile, pursued by scores of other automobiles, to a waiting plane on the prairie.Pursuers caught up just as the plane was starting and showered the couple with rice.Piloted by Lieut.H.8.McClelland, of Saskatoon, the plane carried the couple to Winnipeg, after heading west first to give pursuers the impression that they were going to Calgary.The Middle Name.A study of a record of recent baptisms given in a parish magazine showed that not one child out of twenty was given only one Christian name.Yet it may not be generally known that at one time in Great Bri- tatn middle names were illegal.Fng- lish statutes were most definite as to the naming of children.Coke stated that \u2018a man cannot have two names of baptism.\u201d So late as the year 1560 there were only four persons in the kingdom who possessed two given names, Even 150 years ago double vames were extremely uncommag.Now it is the exception to find a child who has not two Christian names.Cons Wanted Grade Ayrshire and Holstein cows and heifersdue to freshen from April 135 to May 30th.Parties

way by the Pro- vinciai Roads Department whareby there will be estab.lshed in this province this year a patrol system, which Will keep in repair all the improved roads of the prov.uce 4,000 miles, and which organization will be built on such a .u.sis that it will extend itself to take care of further road building, The intention of the Government is that there will be brought into being a complete organization by which it will be possible for Hon.J.L.Perron, Minister of Roaus, to know in detail and with exactitude the stute of each section of road, the road mender in charge, and the amount of repairs being done.The fact that the Government is taking an extra million dollars per year out of liquor revenue to be used for roads, in addition to the regular roads department budget of a million and a half, means that while more work will be done and unification arrived at, there should be less expense to the municipalities concerned.It will be necessary, however, under the new plans for the municipalities to work in harmony with the Government by passing the necessary by-laws to permit of the Minister taking care of their roads Such by-laws will provide the con- ditions, At present municipalities have to pay 50 per cent of maintenance of improved roads, the Government paying the other halt, but it is provided in the measure which Mr.Perron put through the Legislature last session that the Minister may use his discretion as tô the ratio which each municipality will pay.This will mean in practice that if it is found that a municipality with a long stretch of road can show that deterioration is ss cere wo PICTURES IN O\u2019Connor Hall SATURDAY, APRIL8 TH CHARLIE CHAPLIN IN THE IDLE CLASS You will see him double due very la: -elv to outside traffic.tha Government will agree to nav more than 50 per cent of the cost of maintenance.In addition to the two millions and a half to be spent from revenue account for roads this year, there is a loan power of five millions additional provided for, and the intention is to use all this money, if it can be profitably done, this year.One benefit of this which is figured on in that this large expenditure will result in much relief ir the unemployment situation.\u2014Montreal Gazette.HUNTINGDON \u2014The auction sale of the property of J.B.Carr on Friday was a large and lengthy one, for Mr.Carr disposed of nearly
