\u2014 ® SIXTY-EIGHTH YEAR BOWLING CLUB STAG PARTY TRIUMPHS Most Generous Support Accorded Bowling Club Which is Asset to Huntingdon Bob Hamilton Wins Gobbler Stark\u2019s Baby Proved to be 7 Weeks Old Shoat Won by E.Ovans An asset to Huntingdon, in which \u2018practically every citizen points out with pride to visitors, is the Bowling Green on Lake Street.The Bowling Green was converted from a vacant lot adjoining a lumber yard to a beauty spot unequalled by many towns.To make this green, a great deal of expense was incurred.In the first place the property had to be bought, and after that, an equqally as great an amount of cash had to be spent on having it evenly graded and with a suitable top soil on which to grow the fine grass.The illuminating of the green added to this expense another $200.or more.The debt of the green was in the neighbourhood of $1500.This year the members of the club and the generous citizens of the community have patronized the bowling club benefits in generous numbers.The home talent play staged under the direction of T.S.Miller last spring netted a handsome sum.On Thursday evening the second annual turkey stag benefit was held by the Bowling Club in O'Connor Hall.It was well supported by the men of the district for upwards of 225 were present.Owing to the amount of debt on the green, a greater number of raffles were run off in order to increase the net receipts, but in this respect too many raffles were provided for and as a result some of the fowl went for less cash than they cost.The Bowling Club will profit by the experience and another year wn not have more than 10 or 12 raf- es.The big raffle of the evening was that of Mr.Tom, the 34-l1b.gobbler, fed and reared on Municipal Service poultry feeds.Tom went to Bob Hamilton.This drawing took place at 12.30 o'clock, and as Bob was not at the Hall, he was sent for.Upon his arrival, he decided to offer him for sale by auction.He was knocked down at $6.00 which met with the approval of the owner.The drawing for Stark's baby, which was the door prize, went to Mr.Erle Ovans.The baby was a 7-weeks old shoat.President D.L.Kelly had a baby's bonnet on hand and tied it upon the head of the recipient of the prize amidst great laughter.Cards were played at 50 tables.After the playing of cards for nigh two hours the winners approached the platform and each received a fine large chicken.Another year when the Stag party is held, it has been deemed advisable not to sell raffle tickets when the card playing is In progress as it possibly interferes with the final results of the games.After the card playing was over a number of chance games were freely indulged in.The most popular game was bingo, directed by Stanley Popeck and his assistants, who were A.A.Antoine, Chas, Kyle and \u201cWalter Brown, Leo Cappiello managed the dice game, and as would be expected his table was generally surrounded by large numbers.Adjoining this stand was the \u201cWheel of Fortune.\u201d How big a fortune befell any individual is not likely very great for Ed.Hussey of St.Anicet, who managed it, is no infant at such a catch penny game.Ed.saw to it that every man had a square deal and that they all had a good time.In the making of the evening such an outstanding success the Bowling Club are indebted to Mayor D.J.O'Connor and the Hall Manager Mr.Emile Fournier, Roch City Tobacco Co.who supplied the Master Mason smoking tobacco, C.H.Lamb for the clay pipes, The Moose Club of Malone and Mr.Nap.Kiepprien for the use of their wheels of fortune, to Clubs and Lodges for the use ef tables etc, Messrs.Arthur Elliot and James McDonagh, who were the fiddlers and were accompanied by Mr.Sylvestre McDonagh on the piano.The playing cards were supplied through Mr.Fred Langevin, who re- celved them with the compliments of the Frontenac and National Brew- erles and also to Mr.Rodrique Lang- lois of the Country Hotel Keepers\u2019 Ass'n.Coffee and sandwiches were served during the evening.The Bowling Club are indeed much indebted to the ladies of the Club who made the sandwiches at the Curling Rink during the afternoon.To the Swift Canadian Packing Co.who donated the ham, and to the Baumert Co.Limited for the relish cheeses, thanks are duly extended.Taylor's Awards at Ottawa and Three Rivers At the Ottawa Winter Fair last week out of 142

sell it at this annual event.The various booths in the lecture room were appropriately decorated and a flourishing business was transacted at all of them.At the supper hour, the ladles served a very delicious chicken pie supper.It, like the bazaar was well patronized, and as a tangible result the ladies will add $408.to the treasury.Boy Scout News.\u2014 Mr.Stanley Simmonds has received his

responsibility of carrying on the Town of Huntingdon Christmas Tree on the Red Cross May we point out that the Huntingdon Red Cross Society is not a Town organization but a County one and that the funds which it holds in trust are County Funds.St.Anicet, Dundee, Kensington and Dewittville, etc.have as much claim to a Christmas Tree from our Red Cross Soclety as has the Town of Huntingdon.These funds are held primarily for the relief of distress among the Great War veterans and their dependents.They may also be used for emergency relief in times of epidemics, catastrophes or unusual circumstances.The scope of the activities of the Red Cross Society is laid down in its Constitution and, while we as individuals are in sympathy with the project, we do not consider that the Town of Hunting- don Christmas Tree comes within the field of the Huntingdon Red Yours truly, MAGGIE 8.HUNTER, Secretary But Although the Red Cross Branch executive feel it would be out of order for them as a society, to direct a Xmas cheer for the benefit of Huntingdon's unfortunates, they as individuals are friendly to the cause.The President, Dr.H.R.Clouston, has suggested that a Christmas League be formed in Huntingdon, with the expressed purpose in mind of helping unfortunates.League would have its officers who would work as a body on local social service works, as needed cases arise.same people who constitute the Red Cross Society, will in all likelihood be members of the proposed Xmas Tree League as well as a large number of our townspeople.League could be a very strong organization

Leboeuf Drowned at St.Timothee Dam / A » A sad accident occurred at St.Timothee about eight o'clock Friday night when a taxicab sedan, containing Lucien Latour, 22 years of age, of Valleyfield, and Miss Berthe Leboeuf, 20 years of age, of St.Timothee, crashed through the guarding fence below the dam of the Canadian Light and Power Company at St.Timothee and plunged into the racing waters of the rapids.Miss Leboeuf's body was recovered late Friday night.Latour was seen by a witness of the accident to leap from the right side of the machine just as it struck the water.He battled with the swift current for a moment, and shouted for help, and then disappeared beneath the surface.The right door of the taxi was open.Witnesses said that the girl was driving at the time of the fatal plunge.The waters below the dam are being dragged in an effort to recover Latour's body.The accident was witnessed by Alfred Prevost, of St.Timothee, an employee of the power company near where the tragedy occurred.Provost sald he saw the auto approach the slippery curve.His attention was riveted by the speed at which it was travelling as he knew the dangerous condition of the highway at that spot.He saw the auto begin to take the curve, and then skid into and through the rail fence barrier and plunge Into the water.Just as ths taxi struck the water the right front door opened and Latour leaped out but he disappeared before a rope could be thrown to him.Provost ran to get help, and together with three others, Fred Perron, Oswald Rochefort and Marcel Brault.he commandeered a boat and rowed to the spot where the auto had disappeared.They located the vehicle, and were able to encircle it with ropes.Additional help arrived and by means of hooking the ropes on to trucks and a vehicle equipped with a small derrick.the auto was dragged to the surface.Miss Leboeuf was seated at the wheel when the auto was brought to the surface and the right front door was still open.All efforts to recover the body of Latour were unavailing, and it 1s believed that he was carried a considerable d'stance by the powerful current In the rapids.Search is still being made and from a report this noon all efforts have been unsuccessful.It was revealed at the inquest that the couple had started from St.Timothee for Valleyfield where Miss Leboeuf was to sing at a church gathering.She and Latour were good friends and both were able drivers, but their machine skidded on the dangerous curve which had become coated with ice as a result of the spray blown over it from the waters of the dam.Twelve witnesses testified at the inquest Saturday, conducted by Coroner Besner, of Valleyfield, who commented on the danger of fast driving, particularly in wintry weather when the condition of the roads warrants the greatest caution.The verdict was rendered without deliberation by the jury after hearing the testimony.FRANCE HONORS JANET T.GREIG Title of \u201cOfficier d\u2019Aca- demie\u201d Conferred in

Wednesday, December 10th, 1930 The Huntingdon Gleaner Published by the Huntingdon Gleaner Inc.Brown Bldg., Huntingdon, Que.Subscription rates, Canada $1.50 year; Foreign $2.60.Agents: A.Beaudin & Son, Ormstown, Que.; J.O'Neil, Valleyfield, Que.Members, Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association; Ontario-Quebec Newspaper Association; Class A.Weekly Group.Huntingdon, Que., Wednesday, December 10th, 1930 The Remedy of Our Economic Ills Editorials and columns of reading matter galore have been printed about the economic ills that confront the world today.Remedies are prescribed by many.but the remedy offered by Roger W.Babson, well known statistician, who diagnoses the present malady from which business suffers prescribes as follows.According to Mr.Babson, new mechanical inventions, mergers and mass production have changed the whole face of business and have thrown thousands out of employment because \u201cwe have failed to develop mass consumption to match our mass production.\u201d This, he says, is the disease from which our business is suffering.And now for the remedy.How can mass production of customers be brought about?Mr.Babson says it can only be done \u201cthrough giving good measure, pressed down and running over \u2014AND THEN TELLING THE WORLD ABOUT IT THROUGH SANE ADVERTISING!\" Developing his theme, Mr.Babson says that good business is not a matter of price, but depends upon the relative speed at which money turns over.\u201cAs the circulation of money slows down, business falls off and becomes poorer and poorer.\u201d \u201cAdvertising,\u201d says Mr.Babson, \u201cis ideally fitted and competent to accelerate the circulation.It is the most effective known force for accomplishing the speeding up of money and thereby giving us more business at times when more business is the nation's greatest need.\u201d To-day, he points out, the bank holds money, corporations hold money, the people hold money.That is just the trouble,\u2014money is being held instead of being circulated.And so, he concludes: \u201cThe basic cause at which the jobless should shake their fists is not that too few mills are running,\u2014but that TOO FEW ADVERTISING CAMPAIGNS ARE RUNNING.\u201d Is not there a lesson in all this for some of our local merchants who complain of \u201chard times?\u201d Our People Prosper During the summer .a great deal of talk has been made about hard times.To many men who have looked into the matter as it affects this fertile district, they have questioned its authenticity.It was in reality a political dodge, capitalized and magnified by the metropolitan press.Distress does prevail in many places, but in this District it is by no means more than usual.The farmers have been obliged to take lower prices for produce, but fortunately feeds are cheaper and the cost of living has been dropped, and the taxation in many municipalities reduced.It is only a few weeks ago since 178 people of this District gathered in the Huntingdon Chateau to attend the banquet of the Holstein Breeders\u2019 Club.It exemplified no evidence of suffering amongst our farmers who favor that breed of cattle, from which they get the major portion of their living.A week from tonight the Ayrshire Breeders\u2019 Club of this Chateau- guay Valley will hold a somewhat similar banquet.Professor E.S.Archibald of the Experimental Farms.Ottawa.is to be present, and be the special speaker of the evening.Weather permitting, it is safe to say fully as many people will be present at this banquet as were at the preceding one, held by the supporters of the Holstein breed.If bard times prevail unduly, it does not show up in the attendances of any public functions in this community, and that is a blessing for which we should all be doubly thankful.The coming together of farmers at such gatherings as these, tend to make for better business and incidentally provide a means of taking more enjoyment out of life, and after all that is what most of us are living for.The Provincial Milk Commission A year ago the Provincial Milk Commission made a survey in this dairy producing community of thirty odd farms, to ascertain the cost of producing milk on these farms.The commission revealed many unknown facts to the farmers, and it is highly probable these dairymen have profited thereby during the past twelve months.The commission has done wisely in directing their survey over the same farms, for these thirty odd farmers now know what information is required, and will be in a better position to give it than they were a year ago.Mr.Charles Boyce is making the survey in Huntingdon and Chateauguay Counties, whilst Dr.Lattimer of Macdonald College will carry out the task in the county of Argenteuil.The result will be looked forward to with unusual interest, seeing that milk prices have dropped.likewise feed prices, and livestock sales have not been bringing such high prices.The net profit is what counts and that is what every one will want to know.Huntingdon's Need to be Supplied Statistics are often very boresome to listen to and almost equally so when it comes to their reading.For all of that, it is important that statisticians be amongst us, in order that we be able to know just what is to be manufactured in order to supply the demands of the population.Year books and almanacs are published annually and they give to the readers valuable information that is indeed interesting to all and particularly to those of us who are interested supplying the demands of the public.The Chateauguay Valley is what one would term a very highly agricultural district.It is devoted to mixed farming, with dairying as a speclal- ty.When we tell friends that our district is agricultural, it is but making a broad statement, as much as to say, this is Dr.Guessum, and rightly might the stranger say, what kind of a doctor is he?Our district is agricultural but the Gleaner feels the manufacturers of Canada ought to know what kind of people we have here and what we require.We are now preparing to publish a Huntingdon Year book.This booklet will tell what revenue the farmers here receive annually from milk sales, what they receive for livestock sold, what field crops are suc- ; cessfully grown here, and what they aggregate in dollars and cents.The i revenues from other livestock sales will also be recorded.The maple sugar ; and syrup manufacturing business also gives a tidy revenue to many farmers, but perhaps this branch of agriculture is not so fully developed as might profitably be done.This Year Book will contain all such information to the best knowledge of those who will compile it.It will surprise many folks to hear that the agricultural revenue of this district reaches $14,000,000 annually.That is one of the reasons why this District is not feeling the hard times so prevalent in many parts of Canada, and elsewhere throughout the world.Who are the mayors, secretaries and councillors of all our municipal councils?What is the valuation of the various townships?What is the tax rate in each of the townships?What bonded indebtedness has each municipality?That is information that every man, woman and child should have, and they will find this information in the ist Annual Hun- tngdon Year Book.Next.Who are the various ministers or priests of the congregations found in each municipality?What is the value of school taxable property?What is the rate of school taxation?How many pupils attend the schools?\u2026 That is another sample of the information that will be provided in the 1st : Huntingdon Year Book.Ci Next, Who are the various ministers or priests of the congregations in the Chateauguay Valley?How many families are in the various congre- ; gations?How many men or women are there in the various congregations?When are the Sunday services held?These questions will also be snswered in the 1st Huntingdon Annual Year Book.Almanac features will also be included in this Year Book and those © who wish to have a record of the principal events that transpired in this \u201c ares during 1030, will find them here recorded.Co A week ago, it was intimated in this column that the weather form- : 4 ed one of the features of a newspaper that commanded the attention of °° most men on any given day of the year.An almanac without provisions hs for the weather report would be lacking.For this feature, the Gleaner LA, + will be indebted to Mr.H.R.Fraser of the Baumert Co.Limited who will \u201csupply this data.Mr.Fraser has kept a record throughout the year and ares EC SET I ee PE Le cé RE

Up the weather conditions of the corresponding days in 1031.; The Chateauguay Valley merchants play an important part in the pot, life of this rural community.Were this book to be printed without a para-~ ;71 graph or 20 about these places it would be lacking.The 1st Huntingdon » \u2026 Tes Book is to be published for the sake of advertising the Chateauguay Gon Valley, in order that this District may reap the benefits as prosperity and business developments take place in Canada.Chronicled Specially Written for The Huntingdon Gleaner News Bits Home-made Gun Did it The suicide of two boys in Terijoki, Finland, one 9 and the other 14, with homemade pistols, loaded with powder, salt and match-ends, has puzzled the Finnish psychopathic authorities.The boys discussed their plans and executed the tragedy with uncanny coolness.A third boy, a playmate, who was with them when they deliberated the act, was told to go away.He remained, however, and Is the only witness to the tragedy.After the 14-year-old boy committed suicide, the 89-year-old one picked up the weapon, and, after reloading it, followed his companion\u2019s act.The parents of the boys cannot give any reason for the suicide.She's Sorry She Missed Catherine McVey of Welland, Ont., has a bad aim, but her chickens shall be protected.Because of thieves she hid herself armed with a pitchfork and a pistol.A man emerged from the chicken coop.She threw the pitchfork.\u201cIt missed,\u201d Catherine testified.\u201cI am very sorry it did.\u201d But the police nabbed Chas.Fritshaw and he had to go to court.Making Faces Proves Undoing The trouble is, Albert Smith of Pittsburgh, Pa., can't \u201cdo imitations\u2019 like he used to.It used to be.according to Al, that all you'd have to say was \u201cGeorge Washington,\u201d and he'd look like the first President; or \u201cTheodore Roosevelt\u201d and Mr.Smith would impersonate the colonel.But he's not so good now.He faced Magistrate Leo Rothenberg on a drunkenness charge.\u201cMade a face\u201d so the judge would not know him next time and was freed.He was pinched again, made a face, fooled the magistrate and went free again.But the other day he was in again and he was about to make one of his best faces, when the magistrate suddenly exclaimed: \u201cAh, ha, I thought so, you make faces\u2014you can't fool me again.\u201d Then he gave Mr.Smith 10 days in jail.Now, the One-wheel Auto A motor car with one wheel is claimed to have been invented by an Italian engineer named Gene- tosa, living in France.Not only has the car a single wheel, but it is itself within the wheel.The wheel is described as having a diameter of 1.70 meters (roughly 67 inches), and everything else, including a seat for one person, is tucked into the middle of it.The motor drives a metal rail concentric with the wheel.Bobcat Sleeping Under Bed Dinky Moore, an eployee at the Summit house on Pikes Peak, Colorado, reached down at the side of the bed to turn off the alarm clock.He felt the fur of an animal's back.A bobcat had entered through an open window and gone to sleep under the bed.The animal clawed Moore's arm and then escaped through the window.Must Watch Own Trains If women are traveling in Hungary, and if in order to appear fashionable they must wear long trailing evening dresses.they will either have to take a taxi or look after their own tails while getting on or off street cars, the supreme court of Hungary has ruled.An elderly man hurriedly entered a Budapest street car as a young woman happened to be hastily endeavoring to emerge.The elderly gentleman stepped on the tail of the young lady\u2019s gown, and, according to her own testimony in court, her shoulder straps snapped and she, in utter dismay, presented to the public a figure usually seen only in shop windows.She charged the elderly gentleman with carelessness.The supreme court ruled that as long as the world recognizes women as the equals of men, women must look after their own affairs, including the superfluous portions of their garments.Knows His Teeth Yet A Paris court has fined M.Edouard Leib the equivalent of $40 for illegally practicing dentistry.Although more than six hundred of Leib's clients signed a manifesto to the excellence of the work he had performed on them, and notwithstanding the fact that during the war he had worked in several hospitals and was consulted by scores of dentists with diplomas, because he had not been able to pass the necessary medical examination the Paris court disqualified him.He has returned to his books, determined to make another effort to pass the examination.Logs From Petrified Forest Uncovering of additional petrified logs in the Piedmont petrified forest four miles north of Pled- mont, South Dakota, indicates it will be the largest in the world when fully dug out, according to geologists.The length, girth and extent of the agatized wood already found promises to rank the local find as greater than the famous Arizona petrified forest.Excavations this Summer uncovered one log 35 feet in length and 2 feet in diameter, which is said to be the largest ever founder Sleeps Days, Roams Nights No, it\u2019s not your lazy son or husband; it's a monkey this time.The London zoo has added a new specimen of a Malayan monkey.It is about the size of a month-old kitten, with enormous bulging eyes and a dense plush-like coat.It is sad-faced and, when it is not sleeping, whistles a doleful tune.It likes to sleep during the day and stay out at night.In its native Malay the sailors never hesitated to go to sea when the \u201clinglong\u201d whistled.They regarded it as a forerunner of a fair wind.Military Funeral in Error Two thousand Czecho-Slovakian ex-soldiers at Brunn, marched to the grave with the body of a soldier who had been decorated for valor in the great war.They lowered the coffin into the grave with full military honors, and it was not until they were ready to \u201cturn the soil\u201d that some one discovered that the undertaker had made an error and had sent the body of an old woman.The veterans lifted the coffin, bur- fed the old woman in another grave, and dug a third one.They took an oath that the undertaker would be buried in the fresh grave, but eventually forgave him for his mistake.Rioting Students Kill Policeman One policeman was killed and many - persons were hurt in a recurrence of student riots in Havana, Cuba.The policeman was Oscar Sanchez.He died of gunshot wounds.Thirty students were arrested.Police reserves quickly restored order.The Government sald the army would not be called out so long as the police maintained order.An investigation was ordered and the students were held pending its findings.The riot was the latest of several student outbreaks in Havana and elsewhere throughout Cuba in the past two months.President Gerardo Machado, proclaimed martial law recently, as a result of similar rioting which resulted in six deaths and many wounded.The authorities insist the situation has not become serious, despite the recurrence of violence.The Breaking of Bones Billy Neuhart II of Avondale, Ohio, still holds his record as the world's champion \u201cbone breaker.\u201d Last year Billy \u201cmade the front pages\u201d when broken bones sustained through his childhood reached a total of thirty-six.Not content with that Billy recently sustained a broken leg when he fell from a chair, raising the total to thirty-seven.Miner to Raise Bull Frogs Jack Miner, Canada's well known naturalist, is going in for bull frogs.He is experimenting at his game sanctuary at Kingsville to determine whether Ontario's marshes can be used profitably for the raising of frogs, to supply the table demand for their succulent legs.Bull frogs which have been developed in well paying froggeries in the marshes of Kansas are about three times the size of the Ontario species, says Mr.Miner, and he has imported several thousand frog pollywogs from that state to wiggle themselves into grown-ups in the sanctuary ponds.He hopes shortly to prove that some Canadian marshes, now valueless, can be turned to commercial profit by raising the knightly bull frog instead of the common toad with inedible legs.Worth While Stubbing Toe There is still \u201cgold in them thar hills\u201d in Alaska, and Will Fritsch of Sedro-Wooley, Wash., has the proof in a $350 gold nugget taken recently from his diggins at Eagle.The nugget was found by a miner, who stubbed his toe on this concentrated wealth and thought it was an Autumn leaf until the weight gave him other ideas.The nugget weighs 214 ounces.Deer Slays its Slayer Evidence of a buck\u2019s revenge on the hunter who shot it was found in the wilds of Pike County about 10 miles from Milford.Philadelphia.The buck, its antlers stained with blood, lay dead, a shot through its breast, A few feet away lay the body of the hunter, his breast crushed, a hunting knife in his hand and the gun at his side.The man was Wellington De Groat, of Matamoras, N.Y.In Doing Double Dive George Pridmore, 14, Woolrich, England, youth.is in hospital suffering from a jaw injury sustained when he dived from on high into a swimming pool at the same moment his sister was diving from a lower level.He struck his sister, Bessie, age 16, above the water and knocked her unconscious.Upon her recov- overy her first question was \u201cWhere is George?\u201d 353rd Daily Egg And while we are on the subject of eggs, it is only right that we should record this one.Hen No.2, a British Columbia White Leghorn of Fort Kells, has passed the world's record for production when it laid its 353rd egg in as many days.This hen comes from the famous University of British Columbia steek, and was bred by Whiting.Dies at Train Throttle As the St.Louis-New York express of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad sped across the Ohio river bridge into Parkersburg, W.Va., recently, Engineer Wallace Williams, 65, of Chillicothe, Ohio, died at the throttle.Denver Connor, of Chillicothe, fireman, saw Williams collapse as the train approached the Par- kersburg yards, and holding the dying engineer with one arm, brought the train to a stop with the other.Too Many Kisses This Time Probably it was affection on her husband\u2019s part, but his constant kissing got boresome to Dorothy Canfield of Los Angeles and she went to court, entered a complaint\u2014and got a divorce.She said that her husband \u201cused to kiss me all the time.Every evening I'd have to sit on his lap and kiss him, hour after hour.He wouldn't let friends come to see us because he couldn't spare the time from kissing.\u201d Postcard's Sixtieth Birthday It is just sixty years since the postcard came into use.When it first appeared, post-offices were besieged by crowds anxious to buy specimens, and at many places in the provinces rioting occurred.In the first year of the postcard's existence more than sev- enty-five millions were sold.Within twenty years the number in use annually had increased to five hundred millions.Until the war the postcard required only a halfpenny stamp, and in 1914 the total number of postcards used in this country averaged more than a thousand millions a year.The postage went up to three-halfpence in 1921 and the number of postcards fell to about half.The postage was soon reduced to a penny, its present figure, but the numbers going through the post are still considerably less than those of pre-war days.Mr.George Bernard Shaw employs nothing else for his ordinary correspondence, His witty postcards are world-famous.Shun Houses for Tents White men may seek the shelter of houses and the warmth of a modern furnace when winter comes, but Planty Horse and his wife, full blooded Sioux Indians of near Winner, 8,D., express their preference for the tents in which their forefathers lived.The aged couple, who have probably passed their golden wedding anniversary by more than ten years and live in a tent pitched in the dooryard of the log house which the government provided for them in 1879.Neither can speak English, but through an interpreter Planty Horse had made it known that he and his wife are more than 80.Tliey eat from a kettle over a camp fire and sleep on the ground with only a blanket to protect them.Stealing the Sea's Secrets No men have had more wonderful experiences than Dr.Beebe and Mr.Otis Barton, of London, who have been investigating the life that exists a quarter of a mile beneath the surface of the ocean.The pressure at such depths is terrific.For every two feet one descends below the surface, a pressure of 15lb.to the square inch is added.The explorers descended in a steel ball five feet In diameter and several inches thick.It was provided with cylinders of oxygen and special chemicals to absorb the carbonic-acid gas from their lungs.Thick quartz windows enabled them to view the floor of the sea.The greatest depth reached was 1,426 feet, where the pressure is equal to more than a quarter of a ton to the square inch.At this depth only the blue rays of the sun's light can penetrate, and everything is dim except for a faint blue glimmer.Yet fish could be seen, for in these depths they carry their own lights.Every one of them has a number of phosphorescent spots like that at the glow-worm\u2019s tail.; The 8.8.Teachers\u2019

Hand Book of Canadian Literature by V.B.Rhodenizer, Ph.D.Graphic Publishers, Ottawa.295 Pages.Price $2.00.This brief account of what Canadian writers have done to date serves a double purpose.It gives the student to whom the subject is new, reliable and authentic information and will arouse increased interest on the part of the general public in the currents and movements of literature in the Canada of the past and present.The author is professor of English Literature at , Acadia University Wolfville, Nova Scotia and has been a lecturer on the subject for years and recently gave a course over the radio in connection with University extension work.The volume {ills the need for crit- cal and well balanced evaluation of he work of the author discussed.Literary events have been skillfully fitted into the historical back-ground.Adequate space is given to French Canadian writers.Dr.Rhodenizer properly believes that the wider the knowledge of Canadian Literature the more unifying is the sentiment to which it gives life and growth.His closing words are: \u201cThe more English-speaking Canadians can appreciate the literature written by their French-Canadian brothers the more will they forget the things that tend to put asunder, and the more will they remember the mportance of National Unity, the TYFRYTIRTIGRYTVUERARAVVARFYIRVIVRIARANAAERARARDAE returns.better crops and greater 150

knew to be fatal.Years ago à charge of murder had been brought against him.His wife (in England at the time) heard a garbled account of the affair and found it hard to set insidious rumors right so wrote her husband asking him to tell her the whole truth.He receives the request just after the accident and refusing all anaesthetics, he began dictating an account of the old murder mystery which no one could clear up but he.He was anxious that no slur might be cast on his children and grandchildren because of what happened in a village on the Ottawa River forty years ago.Ti is an appealing story tense with passion and guilt.Names given can easily be translated into the original by those familiar with the locality.Some of the characters visit Ottawa, Montreal and Ste.Agathe.There are interesting French-Canadian scenes and persons and all well done.The story is a distinct improvement as compared with most of our modern novels.It will help to preserve that fast dying art of worth while conversation.The publishers deserve encouragement in their brave (and let us hope successful) attempt to issue books by Canadian authors.The Wanderer by Alain Fournier.The Macmillan Co.of Canada, St.Martin's House, Toronto.Le Grand Meaulnes was translated from the French by Madame Francoise Delisle.This exquisite masterpiece is sure to be well received by Canadian readers.Prench critics have without exception given it high praise.On its surface it appears to be a quiet story of rural life put forth by an unknown author on the eve of the most catastrophie episode of recent history in which he perished.Fifteen years after its first publication it has now won its way to the high place it deserves.Jaloux by many considered to be the best critic of the modern novel described it as one of the masterpieces of our time.Well-known authors of Belgium and Holland have given it generous and deserved praise.There is added interest for English readers because of the shrewd comment on life in England where the author resided during the summer of 1905.England and the English made an intimate appeal to the sensitive and artistic French youth.We note a touch of critical amusement but always mixed with sympathetic appreciation.Of English women he wrote: \u201cThey are often incompletely aware of the fact thut they were women and only concerned to be good comrades.They were too far away from the French woman, whom he describes as unknown beneath her veil, silent and remote, shut up in her distant salon, and so femininely enwrapped in her dark dress.\u201d He seemed to them cold and reserved.He felt later that England had enlarged his vision of life.He The death occurred of Mr.John Speck at his home, Roxham, Saturday morning, November 28th

vicinity.He was married forty years ago to Miss Jessle Middlemiss, of Rockburn, Que.The funeral service was held on Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock at his late residence, conducted by the Rev.J.G.Fulcher, Hemmingford.The large congregation present and the many floral tributes testified to the esteem in which he was held.The pall bearers were the Messrs.Allan Radley, Arthur Smith,

myself, but could not succeed, and it was only when my mind had been occupied by some other matter that I forgot to yawn.Probobly by now you are yawning yourself.The very word \u201cyawn\u201d seems

taken place within a single century, a Parisian painter of stage scenery and a magic cupboard in his home workshop laboratory played leading rôles.\u201cThe painter was Louis Daguerre, who made photography practicable.Before his time, a few indifferent pictures had been made by the painfully slow process of exposing as- phalt-cov plates all day and then treating them with solvents.One day Daguerre exposed an iodized silver plate.From shortness of exposure or dullness of light, it showed no trace of an image.Intending to recoat the plate and try it again next day.Daguerre placed it in an old cupboard.The next morning he was amazed to find on it a distinct image.He put another under-exposed plate in the magic chest.At the end of twenty- four hours, an image had appeared on that plate also.Then the experimenter went to work to find which of the chemicals stored in the cupboard was responsible for this unexpected development of the plate.In the end, he found mercury was doing the work.This accidental discovery of the effect of mercury upon the exposed plates cut the necessary time of exposure from hours to minutes.After a dozen years of ceaseless labor, a lucky moment aided Daguerre\u2019s success.\u201cFor years, in his scene painting, he had employed a camera obscura to sketch from nature.This dark box, baving a lens-covered aperture through which light from external objects entered and formed their image on the side of the box opposite the opening, had been familiar to artists since the time of Leonardo da Vinci.About the middle of the sixteenth century the Italian philosopher, Porta, had invented it.Crowds had flocked to his home in Naples to see the wonder.Wealthy Italians of the time built little dark rooms on hilltops to form private camera ob- scuras where, with friends, they viewed images of the countryside on the darkened walls.In its mechanism, the human eye is a small camera ob- scura, and all modern cameras are oils.He experimented with the silver chloride paper of Wedgewood and Davy.He tried the bituminized plates of Niepce.In the end.he found silver plates exposed to vapor of iodine most sensitive to light.\u201cDuring his early experiments, Daguerre worked with Niepce.This retired soldier, who had fought with Napoleon in the Italian Campaign.had made a crude camera, before 1825 using a cigar box and a lens taken from a telescope which had belonged to his grandfather.His plate was made by coating glass with asphalt dissolved in ofl of lavender.Pointing the camera out of his window at a pigeon house, he exposed the plate for eight hours.When he appiied solvent to it, the dim outlines of the latent image became visible\u2014the first permanent photograph of history.\u2018Niepce called his process \u2018sun sketching\u2019 When he died in 1833, he had improved his process very little and apparently had given up hope for the success of practical photography.But Daguerre labored on, month after month, for six years more, until with success assured, he was able to show his Daguerreotypes.\u201cEven then, people were sceptical.When he tried to form a stock company the Parisian public jeered and refused to buy a single share.In desperation, he took a chance, showed his pictures, and explained the secret process by which they were obtained to the eminent French physicist, Arage, who gave his endorsement.As a result, the French government awarded Daguerre a life pension of 6,000 francs a year on the condition that his invention should be given to the world and not patented.Once again, the affairs of this remarkable man were at the glood.Hundreds of distinguished men visited his studio and sought to learn rocess.pie of these was Samuel F.B.Morse, later the inventor of the telegraph, who first introduced the Daguerreotype in the United States.It is easy to understand the strained, unhappy looks of the early \u2018tintype adaptations of Porta\u2019s discovery.For portraits when it is

SPARAGARE DORABARE SARABARE Page 6 CAKE AND THE LITTLE CAKES Cake is usually, and rather unfortunately, considered an accessory to a meal rather than a real part of it.Being composed largely of flour, sugar and some fat, it is a rich carb- ahydrate food, and as much, may be used with fruit as a dessert.It should not be crowded into the menu with another sweet dessert.If a cake is very rich in eggs, as a sponge Or angel cake, or in nuts, it may be used as a supplement to the proteins of the meal; and again it is at its best served with fruit.There are two general classes of cakes\u2014butter cakes and sponge cakes.A \u201cbutter cake\u201d contains shortening of some kind, and baking-powder or soda and sour milk, cream of tartar, molasses or some other chemical lightening agent.A sponge cake, of which angel cake is one variety, contains no shortening and is lightened by egg whites, or by the air which has been beaten into a large number of egg whites.Sometimes baking- powder is added to the flour, so that less egg whites may be used.Use level measurements.Too much baking-powder makes a coarse textured cake.Too much shortening makes a heavy, greasy cake.Too much sugar makes a heavy, leathery cake.Brown sugar gives a moist cake and is especially good for fruit cakes.For general use a fine grained granulated sugar is best.Too much flour makes a solid, tough cake.Pastry flour gives a cake of more tender texture than when bread flour is used.If butter is hard, work it with a spoon before mixing.Measure dry ingredients, flour and sugar first, then butter, then liquid, using the same cup to save dish- washing.Sift flour before measuring.Sift it again before mixing it to insure a light cake.Mix baking-powder or soda and spices with the flour, also a little salt and sift together into the batter.If a very light cake is desired, separate the egg yolks from the whites and fold in the stiffly beaten whites at the last.If a cake of solid texture is desired, the eggs may be stirred in, one at a time, without being beaten.After creaming together the butter and sugar for a cake, add part of the flour before you add any liquid.Liquid added first will cause the butter to congeal in little particles.The remainder of the flour and liquid should be added alternately.The more the cake is beaten at this time, the finer grained it will be.Lard or suet is better than butter for greasing cake tines, as butter sometimes gives a salty, fried taste to the crust.Except for layer cakes which require very quick baking, a greased paper should be used on the bottom and sides of the pan to protect the cake from extreme oven heat, and to help in removing it from the pan.For cakes without shortening, such as sponge and angel cakes, the tins are sprinkled with flour, but not greased.In putting the cake batter into the pan, spread it out a little higher at the edges and corners than in the centre, so that the cake, when baked, will be level, without the \u201cmountain ridge\u201d in the centre.This, of course, is sometimes caused by too much flour, or by an oven too hot at first.The proper oven temperature depends upon the kind of cake to be baked.Fruit cake requiring two or more hours cooking, demands a slow oven.A good household test for a slow oven is that it will not brown a piece of paper or a sprinkling of flour.but a drop of water dropped on the floor of the oven will boil.TO BE A CANADIAN Trafalgar Day Address by Clarabelle Nickerson To be a Canadian\u2014there's all the pride of centuries in that claim.It's an intangible fecling as deep as is our pride in being Britons.We are all Britons\u2014first, last and always; but to be true Britons we must prove ourselves true Canadians.To be a Canadian is to wander through the Dominion from the Atlantic to the Pacific Coast, from the Great Lakes to Dawson City and the farthest posts of the Hudson Bay Company.and love every foot, every inch of the journey.To stand in the apple orchards of Nova Scotia and dream back across the years of beauty and the simplicity of the days of Evangeline; to learn of settled countrysides and cities far behind; to explore the water-washed shores of lonely Labrador, learning a little of the hardy souls who first ventured forth into that barren land to wrest a living from its rocky fastness; to live again in quaint Quebec, the glory and gallantry of the days of Wolfe; the haunting heroism of Dol- lard and his courageous comrades and to hear back across the waters of Champlain the musical chorus of the voyageur and the carefree laughter of the coureurs-de-bois; to wander back through civilized ways of stern old days of fort and fusilade, of the fearless fierceness of the Indian braves and to vision in ever menacing woods the dauntless explorer and the intrepid Jesuit.To be a Canadian, is to be dreaming on the youth of yesterday, the gallantry of fair and famed, and be proud of that haunting history, each thread of which, woven into the web of empire-building, has joined with millions of others to produce the country which I claim as mine, mine through the manhood right of citizenship.To trace the growth of law and order, and know from their far shadowy abiding places, the ghosts of those first few who hewed the way, must look and marvel and pronounce it good.To be a Canadian is to be looking upon the smiling farm lands far and nigh, of cities and towns which prosper and which feel the pride in being part owner, part co-worker in the great scheme of life.But that is not all.It is very simple to revere the memories of those who have struggled long ago, or to look with admiration on those who struggle in the lists of today, but he who would be a Canadian of worth must shoulder, too, his small share of citizenship's responsibilities.To each of us there falls that allotted task.It may be on the fruit farm, on the stormy waters of the lakes, or in the cities\u2019 grime and roar; wherever life may lead the duty of the loyal Canadian citizen is to play the game through to the end, always with a high head and smile of courage, for this he owes to all that mighty host who delved and dug and blazed the trail for him.More, no man can live unto himself alone.To play fair with himself is not enough, he must also play square with his fellowmen.If shoulder to shoulder, eye to eye, across the many miles of this fair domain, the men and women stand close in common bonds of citizenship, opening the path of enlightened government for the poor, weak and oppressed.sponsoring reforms which cry for ad-

Mistakes Will Happen; May be Always be Funny! A correspondent of The Mail and Empire recently referred to a slip made by a staff writer in that journal, and forestalled the chance of the error being referred to as \u201ctypographical\u201d mistake by telling the following story: It reminds one (says the correspondent) of the two American counsel arguing a case: Mr.Jones\u2014\u201cAs Homer the famous Latin poet says, ete.etc.\u201d Mr.Thompson, when his turn came: \u201cMy learned friend always teaches us something.Most of us think that Homer wrote in Greek.My learned friend assures us he wrote in Latin.\u201d Mr.Jones, rising hastily \u201cYour honor, I do not think it fair for my learned friend to reprove me for a mere typewriter's error.\u201d This story makes a good preface for the following group of amusing slips, twists and absurdities culled from newspapers of the day.Queer things get into print sometimes because of the fallability of human beings.Sometimes a reporter writes copy carelessly, often advertisements linotype operators make mistakes once in a while, not to mention the make-up man, who recently, for example, by combining parts of two want advts., in The Advance, made the announcement that a lady's handbag had been found and anyone found harboring the dog was to call at the police station.Below The Advance is giving a few of the errors and twists in current newspapers and magazines, where the error adds to the gaiety of nations, though editors grow grey thereby: \u2014 : Touches live wife, man hurled 35 ee nd \u201cWanted\u2014saleslady.Must be respectable until after

INTIMATE AND DISTINCTIVE GIFT By Betty Barclay Here's an idea for those who have just about given up in a search for something intimate, yet distinctive, as a gift for Mother, Aunt Mary, the newly married sister, or the one who has hopes and a hope chest as well, I picked it up in a department store the other day, and believe it is well worth passing on.An early holiday season shopper who had exhausted her own ideas, appealed to an intelligent salesman; \u201cI want something intimate and distinctive as a gift for a newly married girl friend.It must be something that will be useful but still add to the beauty of her home.\u2014no, not furniture, silver, nor china, and they have plenty of clocks.It must be something of which both she and her husband will be proud, and useful to both of them.\u201d That's quite an order isn\u2019t it?The salesman had the answer, and a most acceptable one.He politely suggested a comfortable or quilt, if you prefer to call it that.He showed her some of the striking new designs brought out by a well known New England manufacturer.They would enhance the beauty of any bedroom or boudoir.Some of them were designed by a clever Fifth Avenue stylist, but the prices are unbelievably reasonable, ranging from about seven dollars for printed steen with a \u201clily quare\u201d pattern, to about twenty-five or thirty dollars for more exclusive patterns showing unconventional but attractive combinations of celanese moire, rayon, satin and twilled silk in contrasting pastel shades that will give you a thrill.They are very modern, but certainly not bizarre.One of the new designs known as the \u201chandkerchief corner\u201d, has a neat square 'pattern made of various short length of flesh pink, lavender and yellow materials worked into one corner.Filled with fine lamb's wool, they are very light in weight, but so much warmer and more comfortable than the heavy and cumbersome bedding with which some people weigh themselves down on winter nights.The new designs are bringing about a revival of interest in com- fortables, so they make fashionable as well as intimate and distinctive gifts.It is really bad for mother and child never to be separated for an hour or two.Not only do they \u201cget on each other's nerves,\u201d but if illness overtakes the mother, or occasion arises for her to go away for half a day, the consequences to the child may be serious.As soon as possible every child should be allowed to try to do little things for himself.The temptation to a busy mother to forego this necessary bit of training because it wastes

great many potatoes and roots will be stored this autumn in the Maritime Provinces, The question of ventilation for bins and storage cellars is a most important one.The potato tuber is a living unit and requires pure air for respiration.This was demonstrated at the Charlottetown Experimental Station by putting potatoes in a glass preserve jar and sealing it for a few weeks.When the potatoes had used up the air in the jar they died and the vile odor that escaped when the jar was opened would convince anyone that potatoes must have air to live.The essential requirements for good ventilation in the cellar are to provide sufficient intakes for pure dry alr, to maintain temperatures ranging from 38° F.to 40° F.if possible and to provide outlets large enough to carry off surplus heat and impure air.Potatoes also require storage in the dark.Provision should be made for cooling potatoes and roots rapidly when first stored by means of other than the regular ventilators.For this purpose the doors and hatches may be left open at night during the early autumn.Slatted ventilator shafts should extend along the floor of the cellar and up through the roots to an outlet.For potatoes double slatted partitions between ten foot bins provide satisfactory ventilation if outlets are large enough.The ventilators should be fitted with hinged doors so that the openings can be reduced or closed

without some sort of insect pest.The house fly is tÎfe worst plague because it is definitely known to convey infection.Typhoid, tuberculosis, food poisoning, and many other diseases are transmitted by this insect, which wallows in and lives upon filth of all kinds.Trap it in the house by smearing paper with a mixture of well-botled castor oil and resin in the proportion of five to eight.The use of poisons in any form of bait is apt to be dangerous to animals or children, sweetened infusion of quassia.Bait for Beetles No home that is cared for should shelter the flea, but unfortunately this insect will get in if there are dogs and cats about the house.Sprinkle naphthaline about the floors and in likely places in the morning; then at night, clean the floors and shake all mats, burning the dust.A spray of paraffin (1 in 20) emulsified with soft soap in water will also be found effective.Cockroaches, though they eat smaller insects, particularly the ob- Jectionable bed-bug, cause considerable annoyance by ravaging and fouling food.Since they live in TOOKES FINE SHIRTS Tooke\u2019s fine Shirts, made of Potters English Shirting.Tailor made, 2 collars and beautiful Tie to match,

For some years we have known how to prevent diphtheria.Considering the fear which parents have of that disease, it might have been expected that they would have made every effort to secure protection for their children.No such effort has been made by the parents.Diphtheria is a rare disease in only a comparatively small number of communities, where, thanks to the persistent efforts of the health authorities, a large percentage of the parents have had their children immunized against diphtheria.In Canada, many thousands have received the injections of diphtheria toxoid, a harmless substance, which, we may say, possesses magic power.It is harmless, and it is able, when injected in the body, to cause the body to produce protective forces against diphtheria.When these protective forces have been produced, the individual is immunized against diphtheria.We speak of the injecting of diphtheria toxoid into the body as diphtheria immunization.The process is a simple one, and young children are seldom, if ever, il following the injection.This is one reason for doing the immunizations in early life, but it is not the chief one.Early action is important Because diphtheria is a disease which occurs in its greatest severity among little children between the sixth month and the fifth year of e.

Association, visited this District last week when he classified six pure bred herds for advanced registry.Mr.Holtby, accompanied by Mr.H.T.Cunningham went from here to Ottawa Winter Fair where Mr.Cunningham purchased a new herd sire.Messrs.Robert Helm and W.L.Carr visited the Ottawa Winter Fair on Thursday last.They report an interesting exhibit of Eastern Ontar- ia herds, which were able to compete quite successfully with herds from a distance, namely: those of R.A.Profit, P.EI.; Oscar Smith and T.A.Dolson of Western Ontario.\u201cIS THAT THE TRUTH?\u201d We all want our children to grow up into persons whose word can be believed.We know that truthfulness is the foundation of all honourable conduct.Incidentally, it is ultimately.the only condition of real success in business.So we are careful to be truthful with our little ones, and to keep faith with them whenever we make them a promise.But we need not on that account be terribly upset when we first find out a child in some little variation of the truth.A great deal of unconscious cruelty may be perpetrated if we fail to realize that a child's intelligence is limited, and that it is incapable of thinking along grownup lines, although it will imitate.Old Friends Best Here 15 a case in point.Molly, aged six, was passionately fond of a Ted- dy-bear that had shared her joys and sorrows from babyhood.He was very shabby and had lost one of his eyes, while one ear hung by a thread.Falling to understand that he was the more endeared to his owner by these accidents.an aunt presented Molly with a new and gorgeously coloured monkey.Molly, as she had been taught to do, thanked the donor prettily; but the moment her aunt's back was turned she put the smart new-comer on the top of a bureau and hugged Teddy.Noticing that the new toy never accompanied the child for a walk the aunt was told \u201che was tired, and had to rest,\u201d or that \u201che had a cold.\u201d On being asked the straight question \u201cDon't you like your new monkey?\u201d Molly raised blue eyes in perfect innocence and said, \u201cOh, yes.He\u2019s per- fec'ly lovely .but he isn't very well to-day.\u201d \u201cAn absolute lie, for she hates the thing,\u201d said her mother, worriedly, \u201cand I can't decide whether to scold her for being deceitful or not.\u201d Most parents will praise Molly for the delicate way she tried to avoid giving pain, rather than blame her for the deceit.But it is a hint to aunts to ascertain a small recipient's wishes before presenting gifts.For children like ourselves, have decided preferences.A Chesterfieldian Conductor \u201cFare, please! Fare!\u201d The passenger paid no attention.\u201cFare, please!\u201d Still the passenger was oblivious.\u201cBy the ejaculatory term, \u2018Fare, \u201d said the conductor, \u201cI imply no reference to the state of the weather, the complexion of the admirable blonde you observe in the contiguous seat, nor even to the quality of the service vouchsafed by this philanthropic corporation.I merely alluded in a manner perhaps lacking in delieacy, but not in conciseness, to the monetary obligation set up by your presence in this car and suggest that you liquidate.\u201d At this point the passenger emerged from his trance.He had been to the manager's office to ask for the day off so that he could dig up his garden.\u201cBut, my good man,\u201d said the manager, \u201cJones told me only the other day that you hadn\u2019t got a garden.\u201d \u201cWell, someone must have taken it off the window-sill,\u201d was the calm reply.Reserve Dec.12th for MRS.CURTIS (young widow) | MRS.BRIGGS

Grammar Lesson The barber had been telling a long Ready for School and somewhat incredible story.Some one intimated that the tale seemed to be rather exaggerated.\u201cIt is true,\u201d insisted the barber.\u201cI saw it did.\u201d \u201cWhy,\u201d asked the highly-polished manicurist \u201cdon\u2019t you use better grammar?You shouldn't say, \u2018I saw it did, you should say, \u2018I saw it
