HUNTINGDON GLEANER In Usual Routine After Festivities and Cold Weather While the weather Sunday afternoon and Monday was unusually warm, so that forecasters witnessed the traditional January thaw, Friday was real cqld with the temperature well below the zero minus 15 mark.It was the first day this winter when local mail carriers did not make their rounds.The heavy snowfall of two weeks ago has been levelled.and many of the country sideroads are now open to automobile traffic.With the last of the holidays.the Epiphany.observed Sunday, people are now settled back into usual routine, plus the New Year's resolutions.many of which have already been hopelessly shattered.Merchants and other firms are busily engaged in stocktaking, and preparation of financial statements.Auditors are also busy on municipal books.Business houses which have made up annual reports show increased returns over the previous year.Schurman Is Changed To Three Rivers John Lowe Elected President of \u2018Union

Fire Losses At Chateauguay Three Houses Completely Destroyed With Contents in Fires Unknown Origin Considerable anxiety has been caused during the past few weeks among residents of the town, due to a series of drastic fires which have left destruction and.in several cases.complete loss in their wake.Xmas eve saw the beginning of the havoc when the garage adjoining Mr.Pierre Poulin's pastry shop was bumt\u2014 thought to be caused by an overheated stove.On the night of the worst blizzard winter, last Wednesday night, two houses were burned, one to the ground and one with only two walls remaining.Both houses had been securely locked and boarded for the winter.and had not had anyone inhabiting them since the month ol October.so it was with great surprise that neighbours noted flames and smoke coming from the windows.of the first house.Immediately the fire alarm was sent in and the engine arrived on the scene on very short notice.With the aid of neighbours the fire was kept from spreading further.Fortunately the wind was from the west, and therefore flames and smoke were blowing towards an empty field.and saved the spread of a fire which might easily have resulted in the whole village being wiped out.The last fire was on Wednesday morning when Mr.Aristide Dubuc\u2019s house was burned to the ground.also thought to have been caused by an overheated stove.Unfortunately, the latter house was not covered by insurance and will be a complete loss to the owner.Roads in this town and the lower Caughnawaga road have been exceptionally good this year, cars being able to run throughout the entire winter.up to the present.Mr.Jules Laberge is in complete charge of the roads and so far has been able to keep them open and in good condition.Although Mr.Laberge's area only includes the town limits, he stated that.providing the snowfall was not too heavy.he would attempt to keep the lower road to Caughna- waga open also.At the annual meeti»g of the Women's Missionary Society.held at the home of Mrs.George Horsnell, Sr.on Wednesday afternoon, the following officers were elected: Pres., Mrs.Norman E.Jack; 2nd Vice Pres.Mrs.W.T.Prittie; Secretary, Mrs.David Lang; Treasurer, Miss Mabe.Lang: Associate Helpers\u2019 Secretary.Mrs.Wm.Maxwell; Baby Band Su- perintendent, Miss Mary A.Gardner.Mail Drivers Had Harrowing Snow Storm Tales come down to us from the far north country of hardships endured by courriers of the Royal mail but seldom.if ever, has there been an experience in these parts as was lived during a recent showstorm by Wm.Woods the courrier between Howick and St.Chrysostome.Mr.Woods and son, Arthur had to stop at McKell's to help push two cars out of a drift.The storm was blinding and with the delay their motor got wet and would not run.Mr.Houle hitched the car behind his Imperial Oil truck and towed him to Riverfield.T.E.Robertson.the Riverfield postmaster.then offered to take Mr.Woods and the mail on to Howick, leaving Arthur to work on his car in the Riverfleld church sheds, to be ready for the return trip.Although a blizzard was blowing they had no great difficulty in getting to Howick but by the delay were about an hour behind time.They left the mail and loaded the up-coming mail and started back.A severe gust struck them at Stewart's corner crossroad.They stopped a minute and saw they were close to the right side ditch.Robertson then pulled across the road, and got a glimpse of the corner, seeing a road straight ahead which he supposed was theeIrish concession outlet.but really was the highway to Ste.Martine.He pulled the car around the corner and drove into the Irish outlet, instead ot up the English river road.Wood's had an idea that the turn at the corner was not taken properly, although he did not say anything for quite awhile.They drove on however until they struck deep snow.and on walking ahead and saw the bush.they decided they were heading back in the outlet.They attempted to back out but were unable.As Robertson knew the residents he advised Woods to stay with the car.to keep the motor running while he walked to Mr.Frank Sutherland's.where he telephoned to Mr.Albert Hope, who readily offered to bring his team and sleighs and pull them out.Mr.Sutherland also agreed to lend a hand.Robertson then walked back to the car and found the inside of the car covered with the sifting snow and Woods shivering with cold.They waited what seemed to be three- quarters of an hour until Mr.Sutherland and Hope came.and had no trouble in pulling the car to Sutherland's, where they went in and got warmed with hot drinks and lunchas neither one had had supper and it was now eight o'clock.They left the car there loaded the mail on Hope's.started with lantern and flashlight.going out the outlet towards the English River road.They did not drive far until the horses were in the ditch, getting them out they would cross the read and in on the other side.Robertson then took the flashlight and attempted to go ahead of the team and try and keep the centre of the road.He went about \u201c0 paces, till the snow now was so deep and getting harder, he crawled on hands and knees a shart distance, then waited for the team, when they caught up they were (Continued on Page 4) Indian Village Menaced And Houses Demolished When Ice Jams River Danger of Further Disaster at St.Regis Averted As Second Ice Jam Upstream Passes Out Without Trouble The mighty St.Lawrence held the little Indian village of St.Regis in terror Monday as the harassed residents surveyed the destruction left in the wake of an ice jam that mounted 40 teet high, demolished three \"dwellings and flooded a section of the 1eservation.While the swollen waters of the river subsided Tuesday morning, villagers on the Canadian side of the reservation stood in fear of a recurrence of the disaster as a second ice jam, two miles up-river, threatencd to give way.Release of this second pack at the mouth of the Racquette River would hurl its mountain of ice and impounded water into the streets of the menaced community and terrified families held themselves in readiness to vacate homes at the first alarm.According to information received from Agent Edmund Caza at St.Regis this morning the water has subsided, and the immediate danger past.There still remain fifteen and twenty-feet across ice floes on the banks, though, to testify to the near danger which terrorized St.Regis residents.Although the destruction came in early morning when the shore cabin dwellers were asleep, no casualties were reported among the three families whose homes were wrecked as the huge cakes, loosened with warm wind and rain, piled high in the jam with a grinding roar.Five hundred villagers answered the toll of the bell on St.Regis\u2019 his- Loric 140-year-old stone church as Canon Bourget summoned his flock Tuesday morning to pray for release from the menace of the river.Whole families came to kneel in the ancient edifice.their panic quietened by the voice of their pricst as he prayed in the Mohawk tongue for Divine aid.The ice jam at the Indian village is at the mouth of the St.Regis River where the great cakes are piled to a height of between 30 and 40 feet for the distance of Lwo miles between St.Regis and Yrllow Islands.The water rose Mo.day to 14 feet above its normal level and flooded streets that lead to the old ferry wharf.Forty or 50 families were endangered for hours by the high water.But Tuesday forenoon the river level had dropped until it was only two feet above normal, and was almost normal this morning.The ice jam was thrown up with a sudden and thunderous roar.Father Bourget.whose home opposite the front of the church stands close to the river bank, was awakened by the grinding of the cakes as they were hurled up by the angry waters.His first impression was that of an earthquake.The ice and water tore out a section of road behind the barn of the rectory and the released water poured into the street beyond the church.The old Ferry wharf was ripped out and abandoned sculls were broken to bits and thrown high up on the banks.The three houses destroyed stood at the edge of the river bank.Charles Jacobs, his wife and seven children were awakened to the danger as the ice cakes.rocking against the frame dwelling, hurled the sleepers from their beds.The children escaped in their night clothes as the moving ice jam ground the building to bits behind them.In a cabin nearby Peter Gorrow was awakened by what scemed a knock at his door.Thinking it a night visitor he called out that he didn\u2019t want to be disturbed.The next instant huge ice cakes burst through the side of the house, tumbled into the building and upset the stove.Gorrow, who lived alone, fled in safety.Mrs.Peter White and her two sons.aged 8 and 12, also escaped as their home was demolished by the pressure of the jam.Although ice had been loosened in the river Sunday.the jam Monday morning came without warning.The water continued to rise through the day.subsided that night, and appeared to be rising again Tuesday morning for a time.The Indians stood by, helpless to avert any disaster.Fou covered the river yesterday afternoon and groups of the villagers lined the banks watching for any change in the dangerous condition of the river.A steady drizzle of rain fell during the day.News that the river was also jammed two miles upstream at the mouth of the Racquctte river brought further danger to the community.(Continued on Page 4 Commits The The Ottawa Spotlight Radio Addresses By Premier Bennett Conservative Party To New Policy By Wilfrid Eggleston regarded by observers of all parties to be the most significant he has delivered since 1930.It commits the Conservative party in Canada to a new policy, namely, government intervention into business.Government control of business, in some cases.It hints of an offer tu form a union government: it definitely announced Premier Bennett's decision to retire from politics should he be defeated in the next election: it suggests an carly election.Considering that all this was crowded into 30 minutes, it will be realized what a meaty aflair it was.The subsequent addresses in which the details of the new policy are being set forth, are being followed with avidity.Premier Bennett certainly put on the right kind of a curtain- reiser.He whetted the appetite of all Canada for more.Not that all his listeners will be sympathetic by any means.but they all want to know what he will say next.The \u201chigher ups\u201d in the Liberal party seem to be considerably relieved to have the issue in the forthcoming election set forth so clearly by Mr.Bennett.The prime minister sought to brand his opponents as believers in pure laissez-faire, as against his own party.which was to nail the flag of reform to the mast and go in for government control.But one may be sure that Mackenzie King will not let the issue take this particular slant if he can possibly help it.Of course, as Mackenzie King said in the House last winter.the Liberal party is not an advocate of unmodified laissez- faire.The Liberals have in this country and across the sea sponsored social legislation, placed restraints on industry.They conceive it to be the duty of the government to put stop lights on the streets, as an American leader phrased it.but not to put a driver into every car.They profess to believe in as little interference as possible: while the Conservative view has become that much government intervention is needed and must be applied.When it comes down to grips in the election campaign.these generalities and abstractions will, probably.be abandoned for much more picturesque tactics.The Liberals will brand the new \u2018Reform\u2019 policy of the Conservatives as \u201cFascism\u201d and will call upon the electors of this country to strike a blow for human freedom.The Liberal leader is at his best in reciting the struggle for political freedom from Runnymede to the iast Suffrage Act.and in calling upon all men to resist the enslavement of dictators.Mr.Bennett could not have given his opponent a battle ground which Mackenzie King would relish more.That is one view.To be quite fair and complete, there is another feeling The radio address made by Premier jon Parliament Hill.namely, that this Bennett the middle of last week is: new policy of Mr.Bennett's allied as it will be by the eloquence of Mr.Stevens, will make a colorful and attractive contract with Mackenzie King\u2019s lack of constructive policy.Some say that the effect on Mr.Bennett's new policy will be to avert the threatened clash between him and Mr.Stevens.If so.it is a victory for Mr.Stevens, who has thus seen the whole party move right and join him in his hitherto isolated po- \u2018sition.It is, also.a slap in the face for Mr.Cahan.Big Business will not relish, one feels certain, this warning that its activities are to be seriously restrained.St.James St.may line up with the Liberals: if so, that may be a political disadvantage for the Liberals.As a matter of fact, the manufacturers are in rather a sorry \u2018way.Mackenzie King theatens to re- \u2018duce the tariff: Bennett means to \u2018control industry! What a cruel dilemma.The voice the other night was most ccrtainly the voice of the prime minister; but the author was, I hear.a dual personality, the \u201cGhost writer\u201d on this occasion being the Canadian Minister to Washington.From the philosophy of the address.I wouldn't wonder this rumor is right.Establishment of a Department of Communications \u201cto ensure a greater degree of efficiency in the nation's wire and wireless communications,\u201d and of the Economic Council of Canada to serve the country in the economic field in a manner similar to that of the National Research Council in the scientific sphere were forecast in Premier Bennett\u2019s third radio speech delivered Monday evening.The Prime Minister also announced there would be another attempt at reform of the Civil Service and again assured the people that the Government would invite Parliament to take action in accordance with the tions of the Royal Commission probing price spreads and mass buying.Much speculation has been provoked by mention of a Department of Communications.There is now a Canadian Radio Broacicasting Commission dealing with wireless communications and the telegraph and telephone services are now under private control, with the exception of the Canadian National Telegraph concern.To what extent the proposed departinent will supersede or subtract from the atcivities of the Radio Commission has yet to be disclosed.As for the telegraph services, it will be recalled that last session a hill was introduced and soon after withdrawn by Hon.Dr.R.J.Manion.Minister of Railways and Canals, to provide for a merging of the telegraph services linked with the two principal railways.aan 7 recommenda- !

With a Grouch, a Wolf?your husband or wife; with your children; with your mother and father, your sisters and brothers.Why be nice as pie to total strangers, the soul of politeness and courtesy to mere acquaintances or associates.and then go home and be a crab, a grouch, a wolf?Why show such a perfect side of yourself to an audience that \"eally doesn't count.and then make such an ass of yourself before the people who really matter?You yourself don't care two cents for those strangers.and really deep down you love and prize your family: the whole trouble is you don't seem to know that charity begins at home, You would think long and seriously before you would hurt a stranger deliberately.and then you go home and think up petty little schemes to injure, to annoy.to distress.to really hurt those near and dear to you.You would never hesitate out of business courtesy or straight sociability.to du an acquaintance a favor.and then you go home and act like you were parting with your right eve when asked to render a trivial mechanical help which requires even less effort.Charity begins at home!

\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 The Confident- Courageous Life Every day the news dispatches convey the stories of men and women who have lost their grip.These suicides have not been confident of their ability to eventually overcome their handicaps or difficulties.One of our readers recently wrote and asked how he could attain the confident-courageous attitude toward life.He also wished to know how he could gain more personal power.The recipe is simple although a thousand pages would not exhaust a detailed elaboration.The difficulty comes in following it.Having confidence in one's source is often an aid to gaining confidence in one's powers.The finest flowering of many religious systems of thought is the idea that the soul of man is of the same essence as the Infinite Creator.Those who need to gain confidence in their inherent powers would do well to think of this several times a day.They should read all they can supporting this idea.When they have firmly fixed in the mind who and what they are they will very often find that the cringing, fearful attitude has been crowded out in much the same manner as light pushes back darkness.Having gained an inner confidence a man may still lack the force to express it outwardly.courageously.In similar mental mood a man may be confident in his own mind that he can lift two hundred pounds of sand.However.when he has actually done it he isn't afraid to tackle any two hundred-pound sack of sand.no matter who is looking.Then he has confirmed courageous-confidence.But, how can he get to do it?Easy! By practising at every opportunity on twenty-five pounds of sand and then fifty and then an hundred and then an hundred and fifty and finally on the two hundred.If he never masters the two hundred he will come much nearer doing so than as though he had not followed this method.The same method will do much in the matter of developing untried confidence into confirmed cour- ageous-confidence.One should begin the developing process by doing and saying things of which he is only a little bit timid.When he has accustomed himself to that he should tackle with a greater appreciation of his own ability something of which he has always been quite afraid and so on up the climb to mastery when he will easily address himself on abilities to things and conditions of which he was once positively fearful.The confident-courageous attitude.power, develops through use.like muscle- Lt Municipal Elections are held in a number of muni- Elections cipalities of the County during the month of January, and nominations take place today.The old-time spirit of administrative rivalry has gone out of municipal government and elections for township or parochial offices pass off much more quietly than heretofore.Many regret the passing ot the \u201clittle campaigns\u201d when the country people were divided as in a national election, although years ago the man was considered, and not his political affiliations.With the decentralization of matters industrial, and the increased importance of municipalities, municipal government often follows the hue of the party either in federal or provincial power.Provincial control has greatly increased over local councils, and much more strict formalities in connection with financing and other matters are adhered to at the instigation of laws passed by legislators.A few municipalities of the county have changed to the apparently wise practice of holding elections in the month of May instead of January, It is rather difficult to get voters to the polls at any time, and quite naturally heavy roads and cold weather are no inducement.Nominations have been made.We feel sure those who have done so have made their choice not for any personal reasons but that they figured their nominees would give the municipality sane government, and would cooperate thoroughly in all matters pertaining to its welfare.And should a vote be necessary let that same judgment only influence your vote, PE Icy Streets Temperature turned decidedly warm And Damages Sunday morning, and much of the snow piled about in heaps thawed away.It was not long before the streets and sidewalks became slippery.They got worse during the night, and Monday morning walking was very difficult.Up to Monday noon the sidewalks had not been touched by the Corporation, and pedestrians had tough sliding along even the main street.The old adage about locking the barn after the horse is stolen seems to the particular liking of many.It is quite true that it is many years now since an accident occurred on the street which caused the town any anxiety.That, however, is no assurance, that some day, we will pay real well for our negligence.It seems a mean thing to do to sue a town for a fall on a slippery sidewalk, but when they are in a condition like those of our town Monday, people are perfectly justified.Sand is cheap, and we have sufficient men on the unemployed list, that a little time could have been expended to have the condition remedied before many of the local citizens emerged Monday morning.\u201d THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER Chronicled News Bits No Hard Times for Him Inquiry as to what had become of George Monroe, noted New York architect and builder of many skyscrapers, located him on Cockenoe Island, a little islet two miles off the coast of Connecticut.After the depression struck, Monroe toured five states in search of employment.With no work of any kind to be found, he loaded his wife and six children into a boat, put in an axe, hatchet, tent and a few household utensils, and moved to Cockenoe Island.There he reconstructed an old abandoned house and moved in with his family, where they have lived ever since.A garden supplied plenty of fresh vegetables and small fruits.Their water supply is rain water caught in barrels.Driftwood from the sea provides plenty of fuel.During the clam season they sold these bivalves at $3.50 a bushel, picking as many as 14 bushels a week.Since school has started Monroe has rowed the children over to the mainland each morning and calls for them after school is out.\u201cWe have just begun to live,\u201d the noted architect declares.Parents Vanish Lying in the churchyard of Char- field, Eng, are two children, a boy and a girl, who belong to nobody.No one missed them after the terrible railway disaster at this village six years ago, and exhaustive inquiries since have failed to throw any light on the mystery.On the night in question, as a mail train was on its way through the darkness to Bristol, it struck the side of a goods train, was derailed, and the piled up wreckage caught fire, with the result that thirteen persons were killed and a score injured.Lying side by side among the victims were bodies of a boy and girl.A country-wide appeal at the time for their parents and relatives was without result.The only person who was able to give any information about the children was a ticket collector at Gloucester, who remembered taking their tickets.He said the boy was nine, and the girl twelve, The children were buried side by side, and the inscription over their grave reads: \u201cTwo Unknown.\u201d If the parents have forgotten them, Charfield people have not.They fre- quently place wreaths on their graves.Pep Meetings Even religious revivals are keeping right up to modern terminology as is indicated by a great camp meeting near Zarephath, N.J.advertised as \u201cpep meetings for God.\u201d The leader of the cult known in slang parlance as \u201choly jumpers,\u201d Bishop Alma White, only woman bishop in the world, recently completed her 50th crossing of the Atlantic to conduct this annual revival, \u201cWe don\u2019t object to being called \u2018holy jumpers,\u201d Bishop White says.\u201cWhat this country needs is a revival of good old- fashioned religion.No cards or theatres, no dancing or smoking or any of the other carnal sins of the flesh.The church is not living up to the old standards; if it was we would not.have our financial difficulties, unem-¢ ployment and everything else.\u201d Say It With Signs In England the highest ambition of any merchant is to have the king and queen for customers and having achieved this, he never fails to play it up in advertising.Recently a Liverpool butcher put up a sign announcing, \u201cSausages 1 shilling a pound.\u201d His competitor immediately advertised, \u201cSausages.ten pence a pound.\u201d Next day the first butcher put up a sign reading.\u201cSausages under one shilling cannot be guaranteed.\u201d This was met by his competitor with the announcement, \u201cWe furnish sausages for the king.\u201d The following morning a new sign appeared over the first shop.\u201cGod Save the King,\u201d it read.Milk Horses Back One of the big milk companies serving New York city uses horses wearing rubber horseshoes hitched to rubber-tired milk wagons to deliver milk bottles set in a rubber base.All this done to aid in the drive for noise abatement.The only sound heard is a gentle, melodi.us \u201cmoo\u201d emitted by a horn attachment when there is need for a warning, Citizens in a tipsy state returning to their homes ir.the early dawn often receive the shock of their lives to hear the \u201cmoo\u201d of a cow unexpectedly.The sight of a pink elephant could be no more disconcerting.Oldest Man in World A man who says he is 150 years of age is the latest claimant to the title of the oldest man in the world.He has been discovered at the village of Kumysa, ten miles from Tiflis, capital of Georgia.His name is Artemi Lagiashvilll.Representatives of the Historical Academy of Moscow have been sent to record the old man's memories of the past.He clearly recalls the invasion of Georgia by the Russian troops of the Tsar in 1801, and was a young man of 26 when, in 1810.the wild Lezgin tribes ran riot through the Caucasus.His oldest living son is \u201conly\u201d eighty.Bequest Refused When the will of Leon G.McBur- ney, San Pedro, Calif, was opened recently, it was found to contain a bequest of \u201c$1,000 to President Roosevelt for the benefit of human beings.\u201d Another $1,000 was left to Joseph Stalin, with a statement, \u201cI owe him more.\u201d To each of his children, Mecs Burney left 81, \u201cfor reasons they all know.\u201d President Roosevelt has assigned the $1,000 left him to be divided among McBurney\u2019s children.Stalin has not been heard from.Babe Kills Viper Two-year-old Vassiliki Papadopou- los was playing with her sisters in the garden of their home in the village of Marghelli, near Athens, Greece.Suddenly the children saw a viper slithering through the grass.The children fled, ail except Vassiliki.She seized the snake and strangled it, Specially written for The Huntingdon Gleaner Tours Land of Lurs First Englishwoman to have undertaken such a hazardous adventure, Miss Freya Stark has just returned from the land of the Lurs\u2014away \u2018east of Baghdad.It is a country swarming with brigands, with wide, desolate places and ruined cities, Yet Miss Stark ventured into the wilds accompanied only by a native guide\u2014and he broke down and wept at every sig! of danger! \u201cThe natives have a passion for robbery,\u201d Miss Stark tells.\u201cWhen they are caught their punishment is often death.One man was hanged for stealing a melon.Women, however, seem to be safer than men.Tribeswomen expressed their approval of my high neck, long sleeves and length of skirt\u2014and I found the admiration of the women got me out of many a tight corner.\u201d Other visitors have not been so fortunate, however.One party of Russians received a rough reception from the bandits of Lur.As one lean nomad told Miss Stark, \u201cThey went with nothing.We took all they had.\u201d Railroad Debt Free A railroad entirely out of debt and making money is a wonder of wonders in these times, but such a road actually exists.Perhaps you never heard of it before for it is only four and a half miles long, known as the Cassville and Exeter railway in Missouri, where it connects the town of Cassville with the main line of the Frisco road at Exeter.Fifteen years ago, when the line was in a receivership, David Dingler bought it and has made money enough with it since to pay off all debts beside making himself a living.During aH this time Dingler has been owner, president, and general manager of the road.Until recently he was also its only engineer.The railroad \u201crolling stock\u201d consists of one locomotive and three cars.Bigamy Hobby \u201cYou must not make a hobby of bigamy and go about the country picking up any girl you like and marrying her,\u201d said Mr.Justice Hum- phreys at Somerset assizes at Wells England, when sentencing Frederick Whalley, 28, to five months\u2019 imprisonment.Whalley had pleaded guilty to bigamously marrying Miss Beatrice Louisa Eades at Bath.It was stated Whalley was sentenced in 1928 to two days\u2019 imprisonment for bigamously marrying Miss Elsie Longhurst at Fareham (Hants) while serving with the army at Aldershot.Both of these women had children, shortly after the \u201cmarriage.\u201d He had not lived with his real wife for years.Rain by Advertising After prayer and everything else had been tried to bring rain to a drouth-stricken

Guards, stationed at Wimbledon, England.She went to King's Cross to say good-bye to him when he returned to his home at Leith.That was the last time he saw her.The other day he wrote to the mayor of Wimbledon to find \u201cDolly.\u201d The letter was made public and the real \u201cDolly\u201d answered.She said she was happily married anc has a home of her own.Mr.Sutheriand said he merely desired

cars in use on American railways jumped from 650 in 1933 to 2,320 in operation last summer.Forty per cent of these cars are cooled directly by ice put into them, the rest by various kinds of refrigerating systems.The Pullman company owns half the artificially cooled cars in use.The Pennsylvania railroad ranks second with 273, the Baltimore and Ohio third with 118.Other roads operating such cars are the Santa Fe, Union Pacific and New York Central.Peace Stamps The 20th anniversary of the outbreak of the World War was observed in Russia by an issue of postage stamps showing the horror and futility of war.There are four stamps in the series.One shows preparations for war, another a pillaged town in flames, a third the triumphal march of fresh armies toward the battlefield and their return home as cripples, and the fourth fraternization of soldiers whose governments have ordered them to fight.Robbed in Jail Arrested for disturbing the peace, James Berdill was put into the town bastile, unguarded at night, at Somerset, Pa.Next morning Berdill surprised the town marshall by appearing at his home bright and early with a justifiable complaint.During the night two men entered the jail, unlocked Berdill's cell, robbed him of $1.75 and turned him out.High-Priced Labor At Hopkins, Missouri, a grain buyer needed an hour's labor in scooping corn, so proposed to a town loafer that if he would do the job, \u201cI'll pay for all the beer you can drink.\u201d The loafer finished the job in 30 minutes \u2014and drank $1.40 worth of beer.The dealer could have hired a

situation | ple.REAT Britain knows better than any other nation how behind the times she is with her system of currency.When the time comes for her to change it will be done quickly and efficiently and the people will wonder why they remained so isolated all the years.Rather more than a year ago the Manchester Chamber of Commerce gave a valuable lead to the country by moving, at a Loudon gathering of Chambers of Commerce, a resolution in favor of the establishment of the decimal system of currency in Great Britain in order to facilitate trade with other parts of the world.The resolution is worth quoting verbatim: Whereas the use of decimal coinage promotes commercial efficiency and simplifies international exchange, and whereas the various national monetary units in all foreign countries and alse in several parts of the British \u2018Empire are now divided on the decimal system, it is desirable that the decimalization of the pound sterling be completed without de~ lay.a This emphatic resolution coming from Manchester, was unanimously adopted by the London Congress of the Federation of Chambers of Commerce of the British Empire, points out the Sunday Times in a special article.Great Britain is dependent on her foreign and overseas trade for the very life of her people.We have all been intrigued by the vision or nightmare of every steamer plowing towards the island, being held up even for 24 hours.If she cannot sell her products abroad these ships cannot ply the oceans.But when foreign countries .are all using the decimal system it is very awkward for them to turn aside to a totally different system of currency that can only be converted into their own currency by complicated calculations ending in awkward fractions.Without doubt Britain's currency system is and has been a deterrent to her trade.One great obstacle of course, is th.conservative objection of the people to such a change.They are satisfied with the old pounds, shillings an.pence idea, just as they are satisfied with much that is Elizabethan ir their daily life.But the individual here and there has been working at this problem and many ingenious schemes have been suggested for taking care of the solution.The chancellor of the exchequer is said to be in favor of decimal coinage.He probably realizes that no longer can Brit- ' ain maintain its insular outlook in such an important matter.° \u2014-Kamiloops Sentinel.e ° The Crime of Charity ALL that has been said and all! that has been written about re-' lief for the unemployed, there is one outstanding note\u2014the fear that a little charity will creep into the situation.The theory is that if you give a man a job or an inspirational talk, you thereby solve all his problems and end all his hardships; but but if you give him food or clothing.or pay his rent, you are guilty of perpetrating an act of charity.which inevitably causes the object of it to lose his independence, his initiative \"and his self-respect.No consideration is given the simple fact that an empty stomach is the worst possible foundation for independence or in- itiative\u2014a pair of qualities that rest most comfortably, and most frequently, on a sturdy bank account.If you doubt this, ask the next honestly hard-up man you meet how much of his independence he will trade for a square meal for himself and his family.He'll give you all of it and feel none the poorer for the exchange.The point of all this is to sugge:® that charity is a Christian virtue, not a crime or a disease.If we are afraid of it, it is because we are always a little afraid of the unusual and because we are too much in love with what we choose to call our independence, but what we could more TILLYER LENSES 4 Cost No More ALTHOUGH Tillyer Lenses

idea today is for the strong to snatch the gravy for themselves.The weak are gener- but indigestible, treasures of independence, initiative and self-re- spect.By way of a bonus, they are given lectures on the dire effects of charity; and these lectures, naturally, are prepared by those who have little acquaintance with the subject.We suggest to Canadian compatriots everywhere that at this time they devote special attention to practical charity.Practical is the important word in that sentence.We need not believe, nor do we believe, that our giving emergency help where it is needed will permanently cure the country\u2019s economic ills.But we do know that, with all this prescribing and orating, it is about time the patient was allowed to say a word for himself, We think he would ; say: \u201cI want food and I want a roce over my head.After that I want a chance to support myself and my family in ordinary comfort.\u201d Let us do what we can about the first two.The third will have to come from those who are so much concerned with the business of keeping the poor gloriously independent.\u2014Drummondville Spokesman + .* + Country Doctors MEDICINE and surgery the man who counts is the man who is not satisfied with what he is told, He must verify, keeping his eyes open the while.He must refuse to believe that his memory is all he needs\u2014that knowledge has been

shop.fiddling away with an idea that everybody tells him is foolish.\u201d At the present time Ontario has three physicians or surgeons in general practice in rural parts who arrest the attention of the world.These three men were and are local doctors doing their work in small communities.The first to be named is necessarily the eldest, Dr.Abram Groves of Fergus, who was the first surgeon in the world to save a human life by removing the appendix.The first appendectomy operation was performed by this young Fergus doctor in 1883 Here was a man off by himself.thinking, He was.as Henry Ford would put it, in a backyard shop, fiddling with an idea that everybody said was foolish.Yet he came out with a great result.There is, right now, a book by Dr.Groves of Fergus on sale in all the bookstores entitled \u201cAll in The Day's Work,\u201d and doctors and surgeons the world over will read it\u2014we should all read it.It is published by MacMillans.arrested world attention is Dr.Locke of Williamsburg to whom the patients come from two hemispheres so that he may manipulate their feet, twist their toes, loosen their cords and muscles, free the stagnant marrow in their bones and adjust their nervous systems.All this sounds irregular to physicians who were not taught this sort of thing at school, But without any question or room for dispute Dr.Locke is making the lame to walk and the bent and crippled to stand erect and be glad.The third country doctor in the province who arests world attention is Dr.Dafoe of Callander, who in going about his local practice was suddenly confronted by the Dionne quintuplets and proceeded to handle the case to the admiration of physicians all over the world.Dr.Koch.the German, who identified and isolated the tuberculosis germ, was a country physician with | à practice so small that he had time on his hands.He got interested in microscopy and.being a large, stout.young man, was locally accused of being lazy because he spent so much of his time fooling around with microscope and test tubes.Yet he was chasing an idea and he caught it and did much to deliver the world from a great evil, Dr.Beaumont, a rural physician in the province of Quebec, nearly a century ago.found a patient on his hands whose case puzzled him.He performed an operation and was so interested in what was revealed of the man\u2019s digestive processes that he put a piece of glass in the man's side while he was in bed so that he could daily study the case and make notes.Off and on over a period of ten years he kept this up and then wrote a book on the digestive processes of the human body which is even yet a basic work on the subject.The country doctor.relying upon his own diagnosis.Jogging along alone in his buggy over bad roads, {bad time to

Nobody's a mind reader.Nobody, except you, knows just what your feelings are.No doubt there are several people for whom you have genuine compassion, sympathy.friendship.love.There are many more whom you respect, admire; many to whom you give silent praise and approbation for feats accomplished, for work well done.You have a big heart, because you feel so deeply.and your heart is certainly in the right spot because ycu give such whole souled feelings to others, but who knows it?Nobody's a mind reader! What good are all those fine feelings of yours unless you show them?How on earth can anyone else figure out that you are \u201cwith them in spirit?\u201d They can't divine your sentiments, they can't read your mind, and as long as all evidence of your good wishes 1s missing.all they can do is figure you don\u2019t care a thing about them! If you have sympathy for another.show it! Show it in a concrete.understandable way, show real evidence of that sympathy.He can't read your mind but he can certainly read your letter.He can't hear your heart but he can certainly hear and recognize your voice.He can't get any benefit out of your unexpressed willingness to help.but he gets a real thrill and a big lift out of the real practical help you render.Don't be such a good patron of mental telepathy.It isn't enough to send your mind all over creation.Get your body there, too, and then your love and friendship will be clearly understood and a thousand times more appreciated.Ncbody's a mind reader.Your mind may be working overtime in sending out thought waves of sympathy.praise, encouragement, but the one for whom all this good feeling is meant is in complete ignorance of it.Further, and sad indeed to state.he not only doesn't know what you are thinking, but in the absence of any outward sign from you, he firmly believes you have forgotten or abandoned him completely.He is just a human being and you can\u2019t depend on him for too much faith as long as you give nothing to support his faith! Half the world is neglected.deserted.heart-broken and forlorn just because simple souls like you assume that the others still think you are \u201cwith them in spirit.\u201d For goodness sake, wake up right now, and realize that you are breaking some heart right now not by what you are doing but by what you are not doing! Come to your senses and know that nobody\u2019s a mind reader.Visit that sick friend, not just once, but regularly.Use a nickel or a dollar to call up someone who has not heard your voice for months.Invite those people over to dinner, you know.the \u201cdate\u201d you've been talking about for a year! Sit down and write a letter, a note, or a postcard, not just one but half a dozen.Stop at the desk of that new employee just starting work today and say a friendly word of welcome.Invest some of the \u201cprecious\u201d money of yours in a few concrete and appropriate gifts.Take that poor family out for an automobile ride.Play ball or hockey with the kids.Arrange a party or picnic.S8peak out the sil- ent praise you feel, and speak out N , BROKE HEK LEG AGAINST A STAIR Whilst Hampered by Rheumatism \u2018Two years ago,\u201d writes a woman, \u201cI was suffering with rheumatism in my legs, and when walking upstairs one day just kicked my right fcot against the stairs, and broke my leg Just below the knee.I was in hospital for four months, and when I came out someone advised me to try Kruschen Salts.I did so, and now I have no trace of rheumatism.I would not be without my daily dose of Kruschen, which I take every morning\u2014half a teaspoonful in warm water.'\u2014Mrs.P.B.The six salts in Kruschen stimulate the liver and kidneys to healthy, regular action: assist them to get rid of the excess uric acid which is the cause of rheumatic pains.When poisonous uric acid goes\u2014with its deposits of needle-pointed crystals\u2014 there's no doubt about those aches and pains going too! that silent thank you.When trouble comes be Johnny-on-the-spot.When good fortune comes let your congratulations be real and outspoken.Be there with your body as well as with your mind!

but if we choose celery.lettuce or tuna fish for filling it would take 4 cupfuls of celery.2 large heads of lettuce.or !; of a cupful of the fish to make each of these second sandwiches have the same food value as the first.If these latter foods are used in sandwiches.the lunch should also include some foods high in value, such as maple sugar.nuts.figs or dates, or milk chocolate.Without them.need one be surprised if the small boy coming home from school is ravenous for something to eat?Lavish With Butter One should be lavish with butter in making sandwiches for children, but they do not lke it In chunks.The work is often hindered in the home kitchen, especially in cold weather, by butter that will -not sprend well, This difficulty is avoided in school cafeterias by working into the butter enough cream to give it n good spreading consistency.Also, butter can be softened quickly by turning over it a bowl that has been thoroughly heated In boiling was ter.Many people simply leave the \u2018butter on a kitchen shelf or tabl\u2018 over night., Bread should be of good consistency for culling and spreading, 24 hours old, some specify.Butter it on the loaf, for each, then slice it thin.{keeping pairs together.For moist sandwiches, nllow plenty of butter \u2018to prevent the moist filling from | soaking through.The distinctive taste of n sandwich depends upon its filling.A filling should be so thick I that its tnste dominates that of the bread and butter, else all sandwiches taste alike and one soon tires ot them.Meat Filling For ment sandwiches, one can use practically anything, even tough ends of steak, but putting il through the food chopper once or twice.and sen- soning it well, If more than necessary has been made, it may be pack- n glass and melted butter poured over it, so it will keep a few days In the refrigerator.Chopped meat every day soon becomes Lire- some.so whenever there is some meat that slices nicely, use that.Blice it thin, trim off excess fat.salt it Hghtly and wrap it In # compact bundle with cellophane or otled paper.With these should go plain bread and butter sandwiches, Peanut butter is another favorite with children and there are n num- her of ways of varying this nourish- mn, concentrated food in their sand- raisin bread.By| To Alter An Old Frock If an othefwise wearable dress or blouse is too narrow across the front, a quick remedy is to cut a slit from the neckline down as far as the need for enlargement demands.The open space is inlaid with a strip of contrasting fabric and the top of the slit held in place with linked buttons.For a sports dress choose velveteen for the inset and have covered buttons to match.For a dressy frock, use a strip of metal fabric with matching buttons.Additional width at the centre back may be given in similar fashion.Too Short How to restyle a too-short or too- narrow skirt depends much on the type of skirt and its material.In spite of the advent of the \u201cpencil silhouette\u201d many contradictions of this outline are to be seen, especially for youthful wearers, whose dressy frocks may be widened and lengthened by means of somewhat scanty ruffles, shaped flounces and closely laid ; Pleats.Some new models have deeply pleated insets on both sides of the back and front skirt panels and others have cutaway sections of the skirt filled in with shirred fullness.This feature has Its advantages for the remodeler, as skirt material may thus be cut out and used for an ap- plicd hip yoke to add length.Taffeta is the favorite for these skirt insets {as {t combines well with different materials and Is always considered youthful.Velvetcen and corduroy are both suitable for combining with sturdy woollens and a short remnant will be enough for an applied band at the bottom of a too-short sports skirt or a shallow yoke at the top, with a scarf collar and covered buttons to match on the jacket.\u201cYou can't make a good motion picture out of nothing but cheap, overdressed gags, and beautiful, undressed women.\"\u2014King Vidor.tablespoons of hot water makes a filling that spreads well.Occasionally substitute jelly for the hot water, and add 2 tablespoons of chopped peanuts to vary the consistency and add food value to the meal.Colds Leave JIT YY in the Blood That is one renson why you are often tired, listless und weak after a cold, To disperse these impuritie a bottle or two of Fellows\u2019 Compound of 1lypophosphites.Fellows\u2019 Syrup contains the \u201cVital 3\" (ealeium, phosphorus, iron) and other blood purifiers that science has proved to be effective in helping to reduce blood impurities.It nids in enriching the blood corpuscles with new energy and vitality.The restorative effect of the \u201cVital 8\" on hlood, nerves, muscles and bones is so vigorous that you'll surprise yourself with your quick \u201cplek- s, take 8y rup wiches, Two tablespoons put into a up\" after taking an bottle or two of bowl and beaten to a paste with 3 Fellows' Syrup.286 +-\u2014\u2014\u2014 ue ¢ Housewives Everywhere McDONALD & VALLEYFIELD, ISN'T ANY printin known.Agree That \u201cOur Best Flour\u201d Is Best for Baking ROBB, Limited QUE.DONE MORE!

But unfortunately, this industry is not well known enough; is not practised on a large enough scale.This then is the reason why we send each year hundreds of thousands of dollars to Ontario and elsewhere for eggs, chickens, etc.which could easily be produced here at home.The directors of the Provincial Poultry Association together with the Department of Agriculture wish to enlighten the public on this point and to stress the importance of poultry breeding in our province so that one day we may be in a position to entirely supply our poultry market with home productions, thus keeping and circulating within the Province of Quebec a yearly revenue of millions of dollars.We therefore advise the farmers not to delay in sending in their entries to the exhibition's manager.The more numerous the entries, the more efficaciously they uphold our work of impressing upon the public the necessity of home produc- Wednesday, January 9th, 1935 Franklin Centre Women's Institute Meeting The regular monthly meeting of the W.I.was held at the home of Mrs.A.Rowe on Friday afternoon, January 4th.Despite the fact that the thermometer registered 20 below zero, eight ladies braved the elements and spent a most enjoyable and instructive afternoon.The president, Mrs.R.C.Manning, had charge of the meeting, which opened by singing the Opening Ode, and repeating the Club Women's Creed.The roll call was responded to by naming favorite Canadian books and magazines.This was followed by an interesting discussion.Several interesting papers were read by members and a demonstration of quilt blocks given.At the close of the meeting the hostess, assisted by the joint hostess, Mrs.Miles Towns, served a delicious lunch, to which all did ample justice.Mr.Felix Meehan had the misfortune to fall on the ice on Monday morning severely injuring his knee cap.His many friends wish him a speedy recovery.Mr.and Mrs.B.M.Johnston spent Sunday with Mrs.W.F.Gilmore.Mrs.Stanley McNeil is spending this week in Montreal.Mr.H.Rowe, the Misses Elsie and Helena Rowe, and Mr.Hollis Rowe were New Year's guests of Mr.and Mrs.John Rowe.Miss K.Hawkins of Hemmingford has been engaged to teach in the Stone School in place of Miss White who resigned on account of illness.Mrs.R.J.Blair spent the past two weeks visiting her mother, Mrs.Grimes, Montreal.The farmers here are harvesting their annual crop of ice which is of extra quality.Howick On Thursday afternoon Mrs.Jas.Cavanagh entertained in honor of her son Jimmy's twelfth birthday.A very happy time was spent by the twelve guests after which a delicious supper was served by the hostess.Miss Una Kerr and Miss Margaret Younie returned to Macdonald College on Saturday to resume their course, School has again reopened and pu- plls and teachers refreshed and ready for the second school term.Miss M.S.Clark spent the weekend with friends in Howick.The January meeting of the W.I.met on Saturday afternoon at the home of Mrs.Wallace Younie.Due to the severe storm of the day before the attendance was rather small.Mrs.Jas.Carmichael presided and the roll was responded to with the name of a Canadian author and favorite Canadian magazine.The secretary, Mrs.Alfred Greig, read replies to Christmas greeting cards sent to absent members.In regard to the expected visit of Dr.Bret, Miss McCain wrote that he will be in Howick on the night of February 7 and arrangements were made for his lecture.A very fine paper on \u201cMental Hygiene\u201d was read by Mrs.Alfred Greig.A number of | short sketches of \u201cGreat Canadians jand Why,\u201d were read by various members.The meeting closed with |singing \u201cGod Save the King\u201d after which refreshments were served.; Lady: \u201cOh, so you've been in touch with Royalty.have you?\u201d ) @ Ce This who A à Wi bp | TUR A.= SR } Wan = Ma il | ni 1 WORN-OUT LAMPS \"iffy VU messagi: is addressed to those want to get full value \u2014 in light \u2014 for their 1 1oneyl The Shawinigan Water & Power Company does not make electric lamps and has no other interest than to see that the consumers of its power get more and better light!

with the finer cereals, 5 to 6 cups of water will be required to each one cup of the cereal.Always remember that the cereal continues as it cooks.and should no be made too stiff at the beginning.Cover and Cook When the whole of the cereal has been added to the water, stir for just a moment or two.then lower the heat.cover the pan and allow the mixture to cook over direct heat without stirring, for 4 or 5 minutes.Then place over the lower part of double boiler which has been half- filled with boiling water.If you do not use a kitchen coal range, then just set the double boiler to one side and let stand over night.If you use a range, let it stand at the back of stove where water in bottom of double boiler will remain hot but will not boil.In the morning.turn on the heat under the double boiler and allow the cereal to re-heat while you are dressing.This method saves time in the morning\u2014an item not to be overlooked by the mother of several children.Do not salt the porridge until after it is cooked.This method of cooking is used with cornmeal, far- \u2018ine, cracked wheat, rolled wheat, oatmeal, rolled oats and the different blended cereals on the market.\u201cIsn\u2019t George ever going to Gertie: marry?\u201d Flo: \u201cNo;

can be used in cooking in many ways.Candying peel is easily accomplished.Remove the peel from oranges, lemons, or grapefruit in quarters.With a paring knife, remove as much of the white membrane as possible, as this is bitter.Put the outer rinds into a saucepan.Cover with water and boil ten minutes.Repeat this twice more, draining each time.Now the peel will be tender, and no longer bitter.Boil one cup sugar and a half cup water until the sugar is dissolved.Put the peel into this and cook gently until the syrup is nearly absorbed.Drain, then roll in granulated sugar to coat it well.This quantity of syrup is sufficient for four lemons, three oranges, or two grapefruits.Candied peel may be eaten in place of candy.To use for cooking, cool and dry thoroughly, and then store in jars in cool place, and it will keep for months.Try experimenting with candied peels, and see how deliciously they flavor sauces, pie filling, jams, rolls, muffins, cookies, and cakes.Try a little peel, put through the food chopper, for rice pudding in place of stewed prunes, peaches, or apricots adds interest, to these fruits, and gets rid of the cloyingly sweet taste.If you are out of lemons and oranges, use peel instead in making jams or conserves.Fillings of fruit paste can be made by running through the food chopper candied peel and raisins, peel and dates, or peel and figs.Use as a spread for sandwiches, or hot buttered biscuits, also as a filling for apples to be baked.: Half an orange peel removed from the fruit without breaking, and candied in the usual way, having syrup deep enough to cover the peel entirely, makes a novel candy holder.Candy as many of these orange baskets as needed, depending on the number of guests to be served.Orange and lemon peels are also useful in various ways without being candied.Run orange rinds or lemon rinds, with the bitter white membrane removed, through the food chopper, place in a fruit jar, and cover with sugar.They make their own juice, which after standing for a time is delicious flavoring for cakes, icings, etc.When making a filling for lemon pie, put the whole rind into the mixture for the last few minutes of cooking.Then remove with a spoon.It will add greatly to the flavor, and IT'S WONDERFUL HOW BUCKLEY'S CAN FIX A GOLD SO QUICKLY That's what surprises everyone who takes BUCKLEY\u2019S for the first time.Accustomed to ordinary cough remedies they don\u2019t expect any: benefit for several days, and often don\u2019t get relief then, and are astounded to find that the very first dose of BUCKLEY'S MIXTURE gives unmistakable relief.Take Miss Mary Rysary, Glenside, Sask., for instance \u2014 She writes:- \u201cLast Winter I caught a very severe cold.I tried several remedies without deriving any benefit.At a friend\u2019s suggestion tried BUCKLEY\u2019S MIXTURE, It is wonderful how it can help a cold so quickly.\u201d Whether your cold is merely in the sneezing, sniffing stage, or way deep down, Buckley's will bring you prompt, sure, safe relief, It acts like a flash\u2014A single sip ing and softening the hands, and to remove stains from the hands.Lemon peels, three or four halves, put into a hot bath will give a fresh, exhilarating feel to the skin.A plece of lemon peel put into the water jug will make the water beautifully soft.Dipped in powdered bath brick it will clean the sink.Put a plece of lemon rind in the water in the lower part of the double boiler when using it for cooking, and prevent the usual discoloration of the aluminum.Lemon rinds used in the wash boiler whitens the clothes, and gives a pleasant odor.Dried lemon peels sprinkled over glowing coals will kill disagreeable odors in a room.A piece of orange peel kept in the tea container gives the tea a deliciously different flavor.Iron Rations Are Needed Only a scientist can think about food in quantites as small as a milligram.The rest of us usually stop short somewhere in fractions of an ounce.But dietitians tell us our meals should be planned to provide at least 15 milligrams of iron for each of us in our food every day.Fifteen milligrams is one two-thous- andth of an ounce, Small Amounts Iron is found in most foods, but in some of them you get only fractions of a milligram to the ordinary serving.Of baked beans, which is one of the cheapest foods, as well as one of the richest sources of iron, you would have to eat more than a pound to give you your day's quota of iron.Of cooked spinach you would have to eat 2% cups.Of egg yolk it would take at least a dozen.Of lean beef} more than a pound.It is a problem to the housewife to make sure that the meals she plans are furnishing enough iron for the family.Iron is important as it is a blood builder, and a certain amount is absolutely essential to good health.The only practical way to have enough iron is to have different kinds of food.Meat, eggs, some vegetables, some fruits, some cereals, and some sweets are gooa sources of iron.The best sources are liver, kidneys, brain and heart.The lean muscle of beef, veal, lamb, pork and the dark meats of poultry are very good.So are egg yolks.Greens, as turnips and beet tops, chard, dandelion and mustard greens, watercress, spinach and kale are sources of iron.Then there are whole grain cereals, particularly whole wheat, barley, ryes and oats.White flour and other refined cereals contain a trace.Beans and peas, fresh or dried, are rich in iron.Dried fruit furnishes iron.The Christmas Message Brought by a Cyclamen As usual, the man stood before the Christmas display in the florist shop window.Instead of passing, he entered the shop.He wished the eyclamen that was in the window, he told Myra Gordon, the owner.He was Jack Corwin.an actor, separated from his family, Myra had learned.The intense longing in his eyes each year as he saw the Christmas window touched Myra\u2019s heart, \u201cDon\u2019t bother about any change,\u201d offering a bill exceeding the value of the plant.\u201cIt's worth everything to me.\u201d \u201cIt's my wife's favorite flower,\u201d he explained, a catch in his voice.\u201cI haven\u2019t seen her for three years.A misunderstanding separated us.Each year your cyclamens have bidden me go back.I can\u2019t ignore their message any longer.I'm taking this to her today.Merry Christmas.\u201d And he was gone before Myra could answer., Joy filled Myra's heart to think that she had again selected a cyclamen for her window.\u2014Blanche Tun- proves it, ner Dillin.By Royal 8.Copeland, M.D.At times violent efforts at weight reduction become a sort of mania.Many a person has actually damaged the health by taking reducing nos- trumg.Wrong methods of dieting have produced injury.While it is unwise to ge below normal healthy weight, I need not remind you that too many are dangerously overweight.But there are sane and safe methods of reducing.It should not be accomplished by taking drugs.The entire procedure should be under medical supervision.It is proper for each of us to be concerned over \u2018every matter having a relationship to health.That is why everybody should know that the indiscriminate taking of drugs to bring about reduction in weight is dangerous.Drugs wrongfully used are evil things.In truth, there is a vast difference between \u201cdrugs\u201d and \u2018remedies.\u201d The latter are agents of known effect, scientifically given to cure diseases.Drugs, as I use the word, are poisons which are capable of suspending, preventing or reversing the normal functions of the body and its organs.Drugs Are Dangerous If you have good health you do not need drugs.You should not use them.As a matter of fact, laymen should never undertake to prescribe such things for themselves.Your doctor will knéw if you need a remedy.Certainly he will protest if he hears of your taking drugs without his knowledge.Trust him always to supply your medical necessities.Too many women, and men also, are taking powerful and dangerous drugs to get rid of what they consider objectionable fat, Some of them are indulging in dietary fads which deplete and weaken the nutritional forces of the body.Against such evil practices all of us should prot- test.This sort of thing is all wrong.Excessive weight, however, is a menace to health.Its possession should be viewed with alarm.I wish every woman would take up arms against it\u2014not to cure it, but to prevent it.This is the way to deal with surplus flesh.Don't accumulate it! Live the manner of life which will prevent getting it.It isn\u2019t necessary to starve to take off surplus weight but you must eat more wisely.You must choose foods which are satisfying but not weight building.You must exercise daily, sufficiently to develop sweat.Honest perspiration is the best solvent of unwelcome flesh.\u201cHoly Night, Silent Night\u201d The song entitled \u201cHoly Night, Silent Night,\u201d was written by a German composer named Father Joseph Mohr, This pretty little carol was written for Christmas in 1818, while Mohr was an assistant clergyman at Lauren, on the Salza, near Salz- burg, and was set to music by Franz Gruber, schoolmaster at the neighboring village of Arnsdorf.Height of Consciousness A Philadelphia man called up a bird store the other day and said: \u201cSend me 30,000 cockroaches at once.\u201d \u201cWhat in heaven's name do you want with 30.000 cockroaches?\" \u201cWell,\u201d replied the householder, \u201c1 am moving today and my lease says, \u201cI must leave the premises here in exactly the same condition in which I found them.\u201d\u2014The Thrift Magazine.Hiram\u2014\"Yes, I've seen a few bad crop years in my time, too.One year cur string beans were so poor that the crop didn't even pay for the string.\u201d Silas\u2014\"That's nothing.Hi.In 1914 our corn crop was so bad that my old cad.who had a very poor appetite, ate Up 14 acres of corn at a single neal.\u201d \u201cAmerica must work toward cooperation between capital and labor.\u201d \u2014Benito Mussolini.Regularity ! | TO MERCHANDISERS: - © I \u201cYou sweep out, you trim the windows, you dust off the counters, you make up new price cards, you unpack and arrange new stock, you plan your merchandise showings, you do these and a hundred other necessary jobs REGULARLY in the normal conduct of your business.\u201cBut how about the biggest job of all\u2014contacting the people and telling them repeatedly that you are in business and have the goods they need.Do you do that REGULARLY?Do you figure you are going to get your share of the available business if you don\u2019t tell folks about your merchandise or your service at REGULAR intervals instead of doing the job spasmodically or not at all?\u201cBy all known tests, experience and thousands of records, the acknowledged best-of-all medium for REGULARITY is advertising in the local newspaper.A newspaper going REGULARLY into the homes of your possible customers, not only in your city but the surrounding territory as well, makes it easy enough for anyone to see how your local newspaper offers you the finest kind of a vehicle for carrying your business message REGULARLY to the people.\u201cAnd don\u2019t think these folks won't miss your REGULARITY of advertising.They look for their newspaper REGULARLY, READ IT REGULARLY, study its advertising (yours, if it's there) REGULARLY.\u201cAnd what's more, you'll find they are buying fairly REGULARLY, too, if you'll just check up, especially with the advertisers who do use space REGULARLY.\u201cYOURS FOR MORE REGULARITY IN ADVERTISING.\u201d The Huntingdon Gleaner $7.70 buys a column of advertising space memory of the late Numa Edouard Brossoit, K.C., Recorder of the City of Valleyfield, High Chief Ranger and High Trustee of the Catholic Order of Foresters at the funeral service held in the Pro-Cathedral on Saturday the 5th inst.The pallbearers were: Messrs.J.G.Laurendeau, K.C.and J.A.Legault, K.C, members of the Bar;

Fortunately, some of the smartest details of the present season are surprisingly adaptable and easily copied.For instance, the bib-neck in its many interpretations, may mean not only the freshening of the front of a partly worn dress, but may include a changed neckline\u2014both of which alterations can easily be planned to give increased width where needed around the neck and shoulders, as well as over the chest.Another type of so-called \u201cbib,\u201d instead of encircling the neck and line of the \u201cpinafore\u201d bib, starting at the waistline and rising as high on the dress front as becomingness, or necessity, may decide.This latter style of bib is more likely to be of the skirt material than is the other model, though both may be of fabric that introduces contrast in surface and color.Even small bits of material may be used for this type of remodelling.provided one takes advan- fects, which admits of unlimited piecing under the overlapping tiers, which usually increase in width as they drop below the neckline and decrease in width for the pinafore bib, starting upward from the waistline.Sailor Collar The continued popularity of the sailor collar in its many guises is another practical detail welcomed by the remodeler, as the entire upper part of a dress or blouse can be not only enlarged but beautified in this way.Some of the new designs show a seaming at the shoulders, the front sections of the collar fulled slightly at this point and elongated to tie in a graceful bow at whatever neckline is desired.This results in a well- fitted shoulder and a softly draped tie, both of which detalls remove this type of sailor collar from the more ordinary design, making it suited to dressy frocks for growing girls of the junior age.The yoke effect also continued in high favor not only in its simplest applied form, but as a decorative feature in bodice tops.Like the sailor collar, the yoke has unusual remodeling possibilities not merely in changed appearance, but in necessary enlargements to meet the new measurements of the growing girl of any age.Both surface and color contrast is frequently introduced by means of these applied yokes and shoulder collars, which may be varied to give the off-shoulder line or even extended to form a kimono sleeve.While these give the smart \u201ccut-in-one\u201d effect, the shoulders and neck may be seamed and top-stitched, requiring much less material than the \u201ccut-in- one\u201d method.dropping over the front of the dress : tage of the fashion for \u201ctiered\u201d ef-: Relieved/ \u2018Baby's Own

stores.25g Dr, Williams\u2019 BABY'S OWN TABLETS Proper oiling of the machine is essential to its easy running, but oil is not its only need.The machine should first be gone over, cleaning out every place where lint and threads can collect.Under the pres- ser-foot is the best place, and the cavity where the bobbin case fits also needs careful attention.A fine crochet hook is good for cleaning this cavity.Use Coal Oil Then the accumulation of oil and dust which have gummed together should be removed.This is best done with kerosene, which cuts the gum.After filling all the oil holes with it, the machine should be run rapidly for several minutes, so that the kerosene may penetrate every joint.It should then be carefully wiped off, after which every oil hole above and below should have a thorough oiling with the best oil that can be obtained.It is a mistake to use any oil at hand, as the best oil is none too good for the sewing machine.Always after oiling place a wet cloth under the needle to absorb the oil that will run down the needle-bar.Leave the needle unthreaded while oiling the machine.It is not so much the age or make of the machine, but the clean running gear that makes the difference.When the belt gets too loose, if only slightly so, place a few drops of castor oil on the side that touches the wheel, and run the machine fast for a minute or two.If very loose it is well to take out the hooks or lacing which fasten the belt together, cut off a small bit, then fasten again.The Needles When buying new needles, care should be exercised, as in some makes of machines the form of the needle is changed at various times.When sending for needles the number of the machine should be given, for this enables those filling the order to send the proper kind.Needles which have blunt points can be sharpened on any stone used for knife sharpening.But there will be fewer blunt needles when people learn to remove work from the machine without bending the needle so that its point strikes the edge of the plate beneath.It is just as easy to remove the work with loose threads above and below, which causes no strain on the needles.Shrinking Thread If thread is shrunk before using on the machine, there will be fewer pocketed seams after garments are laundered.This is particularly necessary when making over wash goods.Simply drop the spools in bolling walter till thoroughly soaked; then dry before using.After January 10, 1935, certificates of health will be required on all shipments to Mexico of seeds and other agricultural products for use in propagation.When shipments are not accompanied by such health certificates, they will be fumigated by the Mexican Department of Agriculture at the expense of the importer, or refused admittance.Old But Always Good A

\u2014on top of the stove, if you will; in the oven, if you'd rather.It is not where but how you cook a plece of meat that makes a pot roast.The meat selected for a beef pot roast may come from the chuck, or from the rump, or the round.A veal pot roast may be from the shoulder or the leg.A pot roast may be a glad or a sorry dish.It depends on the cook.Tender, juicy, and brown, with rich, savory gravy, is the way it should be, and the way to accomplish that end is simple.To Start It Brown the meat on all sides in hot fat, after sprinkling with flour.Add salt and pepper and any other desired seasoning, a little water.Then cover closely and cook slowly until the meat is tender.An average sized pot roast will require about three and one-half hours.It may be necessary to add more water from time to time, as that in the kettle cooks out, but let it be a little many times if necessary, not a lot just once.Too much moisture will \u201cwash off\u201d the nice brown color.Let the pot roast tell you when it needs more water.It Will sizzle when the water is all cooked out.Turn the meat now and again so that it will cook evenly.Seasonings add variety to pot roasts so that the next may be different from the last.A bit of bay- leaf is a happy thought.And the masculine side of the family will vote for horse-radish.Instead of adding any liquid, pour a small bottle of prepared horse-radish over the meat.The flavor is delicious and the gravy will really be a horse-radish sauce.Onions and carrots are good old standbys.Dried apricots or prunes are a bit more unusual.Veal pot roast may be served with broad noodles, boiled, and then mixed with the pan gravy.Sour cream instead of water as the liquid in cooking veal pot roasts is the last word in flavors.Larded Pot Roast 4-pound larded pot roast.Salt and pepper.Larded pot roasts may be made from the chuck, rump, or the round.Brown the meat well in a kettle containing fat.Season with salt and pepper.Add a small amount of hot water, cover the kettle, and reduce the heat slowly until done.about three hours.To make a tasty gravy add the following ingredients to the Hquor on Lhe meat: Leaves of 1 stalk celery.'4 teaspoon allspice.4 gingersnap.4 cup sour cream.1 tablespoon catsup.4 tablespoons caramelized sugar.Pepper, paprika and salt to taste.When the gravy material has again come to a boll, add enough flour, which has been smoothed with cold water, to make a thick gravy, and cook 16 Lo 20 minutes.A NURSE'S TIP When filling a hot water bottle, to avoid those annoying bubbles and splashings, let the bottle rest on the table while filling.This drives out the air and simplifies the job.HEMORRHOIDS OR \u201cPILES\u201d are promptly and thoroughly relieved by the use o D-CHASE'S One pre-eminent characteristic of Canadian cheese is that its manufacture does not impair the nutrients in the milk from which it is made, Almost all the protein of the milk, the body building element, is present In the cheese, and, if the cheese is made from whole-milk, almost all the butter-fat, with the associated fat soluble vitamine which is indispensable to growth and mental development.Cheese also contains some of the water soluble vitamine and most of the mineral matter so necessary for building bones and teeth.One pound of cheese contains nearly all the protein and fat in one gallon of milk.By weight, its composition is approximately one-third protein, one- third fat and one-third water.Cheese is a very concentrated form of food and, compared with other protein foods, is economical.Its small bulk makes it convenient to handle or to store.With proper care, cheese will keep a long time in good condition and the many ways in which it can be served give variety to the diet which includes a great deal of this food.From the standpoint of the housekeeper, one of the greatest advantages is that it can be served in its natural state without any time, labour or expense required for heating, cooking or preparing it for the table, In many European countries, cheese is one of the most important foods.A labourer at hard manual work finds a noonday meal of bread and cheese sufficient to maintain health and strength for his work and it provides a high percentage of body building substance needed by the growing girl or boy.In Canada, cheese is used more for its flavour than as a main dish of a meal, but it could very advantageously be given a more important place in Canadian dietaries.It can be procured almost anywhere and at all seasons of the year.\u201cYou sec that old boy over there?He thinks

scene.Like so many other things we | do day after day, we can easily get ; into a rut in taking pictures.Usually we take just the normal, conventional view\u2014straight at the subject \u2014as if it were a sacred rule of pic- ture-making to do this.It is not at all necessary to take pictures that | way every time.Variety is the spice of live photography! Street scenes\u2014the scurrying crowds, the repair gang at work, the : traffic jam\u2014are usually more striking if taken from a high level.We | are, of course, familiar with the reverse view\u2014the pictures of sky- | scrapers with the camera pointed directly up.The buildings appear to i be leaning backwards and about to topple off their foundations.Such pictures are frankly intended to be | bizarre distortions, but if you \u2018like them, by all means \u201cshoot\u201d them.Some of them will at least be funny.| Parade scenes are effective if the © camera Is held low, or on the ground, | for you will get the effect of feet | marching into the camera\u2014realism.This applies, too, in taking pictures of running or trotting races.{ \"Swimming pictures are better if the camera is at a high level and you \u201cshoot\u201d almost directly down on the subject.From this angle you get the ripples of the water and the light playing on them.Another out of the ordinary picture is that of action on a toboggan-slide, such as you see at bathing beaches and amusement parks.Get set with your camera at a high level within range of the spot where the toboggan strikes the water.When you snap the picture you i SNAPSHOT CUIL ANGLES > Individuality can be shown in your snapshots by taking some of them at odd angles.Such pictures are often much more attractive than conventional, straight-on views.will get a fantastic and attractive effect as the water splashes \u2018high above the occupants.Slides in swimming pools or at the beach offer the same opportunity as the bathers strike the water.But if you are close up, be sure and don't let the water splash on the lens of your camera.Winter offers exceptionally fine opportunities for picture taking at odd angles, For instance, there is the old mill and the mill pond hidden in the summer by the foliage of the willows.You can't get it at any angle.But in the winter from high up on the hill you can get the full picture.Old Jack Frost and King Winter solve many picture problems by removing the leaves and the chances for getting artistic effects are often much more in your favor than in the summer.In suggesting that you take some of your pictures from high levels, it does not necessarily mean that you should be on a balcony or on top of a building every time.You can perch on a chair, a fence, or the top of your automobile, and get perspectives that will make attractively distinctive pictures.But all pictures do not lend themselves to this type of photography so don't make it a habit.You would get some queer results sometimes.Just as a good newspaper reporter develops a \u201cnose for news\u201d that tells him what is and what it not news, so the successful amateur photographer should develop \u201can eye for pictures.\" It is that which instinctively tells him the subjects that make good \u201cangle\u201d shots and which should be taken in the conventional manner.\u201cKeep shooting\u201d does it.JOHN VAN GUILDER.few drops of lemon tioner's sugar.Mix sugar and juices.rind.and melted butter until firm enough to spread; add !

But she had broken from him and was running wildly along the street, fighting her way through the crowd of pressing, excited people.A tall policeman tried to bar her way.\u201cYou can't go any farther, miss,\u201d he began.But Gyp dodged under his outstretched arm and escaped.through! the mad hissing of water trom the great hoses, and the red glare that made the faces of the crowd ghost- like and hideous, seemed to her to be hell let loose \u2014 the kind of hell that people used to frighten children with.And then suddenly Gyp saw Jenn- ing \u2014an undignified Jennings in striped cotton pyjamas, with a shiver- jing Shatters under his arm.She rushed up to him.\u201cIs every one out?Benita?Mrs, Farrow?\" \u201cEveryone, I think, Miss Gyp.\u201d \u201cOh, thank God,\u201d Gyp said.Shatters was making frantic efforts to get to her, and she togk him into her arms, hiding her eyes against his soft coat, The clanging bell started again, mingled with a commanding voice: \u201cStand back there! Stand back!\" \u201cIt's the ambulance,\u201d someone cried.Ambulance! Gyp looked up at Jennings.\u201cIs someone hurt?Who is it?You told me\u2014\" And Lhen she saw; a stretcher with someone lying very still, covered with a man's coat that hid everything except a slim white hand \u2014 Estelle's hand.They carried her so gently; the big strong men to whom life and death was just part of their day's work.No need for the one who walked beside her to say brokenly: \u201cBe careful.Don't hurt her\u2014\u201d That was David's voice.David?Gyp took a step forward, and as she did so, he turned his head.and their eyes met.He was without his coat.and his face and arms were scorched and blackened, but he smiled faintly as he met Gyp's agonized eyes.The next moment the clamoring, inquisitive crowd surged up around them, and shut him out.Chapter 39 Gordon took Gyp to a friend of his who lived in an apartment on Riverside.In spite of Gyp's entreaties he steadily refused to allow her to go to the hospital where Estelle had been taken.\u201cYou can do no good; she won't | know you, my dear.and it would be very painful for you.\u201d \u201cBut how did it happen?\u201d asked frantically.It was early morning then; life was waking up in the streets.\"Nobody seems to know,\u201d Mathers answered.\u201cJennings is as vague about it as everyone else.It seems pretty clear that Estelle hadn't been in the house very long.He says she went out after dinner\u2014alone.\u201cThe fire must have started downstairs somewhere.\u201d he went on.\u201cThe top part of the house was cut off\u2014 Jennings and the other servants were got out by the fire escape.\u201d \u201cAnd\u2014and Estelle?\u201d Gyp asked.\u201cDavid went back for her.\u201d Math- ers carefully avoided looking at her.He's pretty badly burned himself.\u201d Then he must have been in the house, Gyp thought dully, but she said only: \u201cTnat was brave of him.\u201d \u201cJennings didn't know that Estelle had come in,\u201d Mathers went on reluctantly.\u201cHe found Shatters scratching at her door.and he took it for granted that Estelle was still out.\u201d \u201cIs she\u2014very badly hurt?\u201d \u201cI'm afraid so.\u201d \u201cPoor David,\u201d Gyp said.Mathers moved restlessly, and she added: \u201cIsn't it funny how we go on for years with nothing happening, and then all at once so many things happen that it\u2019s like a bad dreamlike the street last night\u2014quite empty one minute, and the next\u2014\" She broke off shivering, and Math- ers sald gently: \u201cGyp, I wish you'd go to bed.You must be forn out, and there's nothing you can do.\u201d She shook her head.\u201cI couldn't, and anyway I can't stay here, can I?It's kind of your friend to have me, but I can't stay.\u201d \u201cMy dear, she'll be only too pleascu.She told you so herself,\u201d \u201cDid she?I'd forgotten.I can't even remember her name.I seem to have forgotten most things.\u201d \u201cHer name is Jane Laird.She's the kindest woman in the world.Gyp, and she\u2019s had a great deal of trouble herself.She knows all about you.I told her months ago.\u201d Gyp was hardly listening; her thoughts kept going back again and again to Estelle: to their last meeting: to the manner of their parting.And then\u2014that helpless hand, all of Estelle that was not hidden by the man\u2019s coat which covered her.Life was so merciless: It drove you on to do and say things, bitter things.and then left you to regret them\u2014 She turned to the man beside her.\u201cIs she going to die, do you think?\" she asked.\u201cI don't know.We must hope not.I saw David half an hour ago, and he said that she was conscious and had spoken to him.\u201d \u201cPoor David.\u201d Gyp said again.She wondered why she kept saying that.Her brain felt numbed and stupid.and yet she was painfully conscious of one thing: that Estelle and David might both have died last night.There was a little knock at the door.and Jane Laird came into the room.She was a middle-aged woman who still bore signs of having been beautiful, but there were lines in her face which had not been carved by the years, and a patient resignation that only comes through suffering.\u201cSomeone wants you on the phone,\u201d she told Gordon.As he left them she closed the door and came across to Gyp: \u201cYou must be very tired,\u201d she said.\u201cNo, I'm mot, thank you.\u201d And then, breathlessly: \u201cWas that someone telephoning from the hospital?\u201d \u201cI don't know.\u201d Gyp broke out passionately: \u201cOh, life is horrible\u2014horrible\u201d Why should we all have to suffer and be so unhappy?It isn't as if we ask to come into the world.\u201d Mrs.Laird took her hand.\u201cMy dear, you're so young, and you don't understand,\u201d she said gently.\u201cI don\u2019t know that we ever under- Gyp The roar of the mounting flames, Wednesday, January Sth, 1935 stand, no matter how old we live to be.but we don\u2019t rebel any more.We just go on hoping that some day things will come right.\u201d The girl's mouth trembled.\u201cThen I don't want to go on living.I couldn't bear it if life is always like this, is people\u2014\u201d Gordon came back into the room.\u201cShe's better,\u201d he said with forced cheerfulness.\u201cThe doctors say there's every hope that she'll recover.\u201d Gyp gave a queer little laugh.i \u2018Thanks to David,\u201d she said.| Yes, thanks to David,\u201d he repeated, and added quietly: \u201cHe's in the next room.Gyp, and wants to speak to you.\u201d Valleyfield Schedule for Valleyfield Basketball League for 1935.All games at Sacre Coeur Church, North Quarter.Garde V'I'f'd Moco Champlain Scouts Jan.7 * * - Jan.14 - * * Jan.21 , - * Jan.28 + , - Feb.4 - : * Feb.11 : - \" Feb.25 - > Mar.4 > - + Mar.11 \u201c - - Mar.18 - * Mar, 25 - > Apr.1 : - Apr.8 - * * ;
