Beck. The Town Hall was filled with an appreciative audience on Thursday ' evening, when they enjoyed the pro gram presented by "The Girls’ Glee Chib,’’ under the direction of Mrs. , George Bedk. The first part of the program consisted of songs by the girls. They were very attractive in their pretty frocks and mode a pleas ing picture on the stage which with the background done in black, their wwie plate in large white letters andp| ’U? lamps, made a very inviting seeing for their presentation. A very clever introduction of the in ception and objectives of the Club, was given by Mine Mary Crutcher. The dance numbers were under the supervision of Mrs. M. McKinley and Miss Mary Crowley, and were very wefi.done. “The Gypsy’s Secret,” a play, oc cupied the second half of the pro gram. The girls did wonderfully well and made such a pretty ensemble in their gay costumes. Very fine ac companiments were given on two pianos by Misoes Esther Green and Pauline Groves, with Misses Gertrude (^pittal and Mary Foster with violin obligatos. Following the play, two little maids presented Mrs. Beck with two beautiful bouquets. The Program Solo and chorus, ’1Rule Britannia" —Jean Swackhammer and chorus.

NUTRITION COURSE WILL BE CONDUCTED HERE The lamentable lack of educationI in proper nutrition ia the underlying cause of much of the ill health in this country, was the opinion ex- , pressed by Dr. F. W. Routley, direct- . or of the Ontario Division, Canadian ! Red Cross Society. “There has been a terrible lack of education with regard to nutrition," . Dr. Rouble? stated. “As 1 look bark on the field <rf agriculture »nd observe the millions of dollars ex pended to teach the proper feeding of stock in the barnyard, and when at the same time I observe the lam entable lack of provsion to teach the people of Canada the proper methods of nutrition and diet, I feel it is a grt^t tragedy in the history of our country." Among adults, and particularly among lower salaried people, faulty nutrition is oftertacaused not by lackof means to buy/rcalthful foods, but lack of knowledge as to proper food values, Dr. Routley felt. As a step to meet thia need for knowledge in regard to good foods, : their values, how to buy and cook them so as to obtain the maximum health value from them, the Red Cross some five years ago organized a Nutrition Course of eight lessons, the subject matter of which was dir ected particularly to meeting the food and allied health problem® of , women on rami! incomes.

Considerable discussion was in voked at Monday night’s council meeting, when a new by-law was in troduced to amend the existing by law governing mint vending mach ines in Ingersoll. The point of dis cussion centred around* the clause which hadfhitherto been interpreted to mean that an offence against the by-law by an operator of one of a number of machines for which one man held the license, would jeopar dize the operation of any of the machines. The Mayor and council felt that this was unfair and the by-law was changed so that only the offender would forfeit the right to operate a machine. In the report of the Board of Works read by Chairman Weir, it was suggested that a man be adver tised for with a truck to do the cor poration work, instead of having it done by a team as at present. Another item of interest was the pointing out the' difference be tween committee meetings and coun cil meetings, by the Mayor. It wras shown that while council meetings were open to the public and press, committee meetings were not It was stated that there were matters which must be discussed privately by the committee, and a 'warning and request were issued, urging every member to refrain from carrying dis cussion of committee .work into pub lic conversation. Henry Ogden made his appearance to state that his property had been considerably damaged by washouts during the heavy rains. Mr. Ogden felt that there would have been little damage if any, if there had been proper drainage on Wellington and Concession streets. The Mayor suggested that the council might agree to put 6 or 6 loads of-gravel on the Ogden premises to help atonefor the damage. The delegation from, the Board of Education which -was to address the council at this meeting relative to the Ward School] filling proposition, hod decided to wait till a later date . to address the council An estimat ion of the cost of a culvert crossing < the stream and joining the two brid ges, was placed at >3,000. Mayor Buchanan felt that this amount would not begin to cover the building of a culvert and filling the valley too. Th© Mayor held that there was sufficient ground for the playing of games there. He stated that the council was agreeable to co-operate in the cutting down of some under growth and trimming of shrubs in this district. The Mayor stated that if the valley were used for a dump for some years, the council might be ready then to help to do some thing with it. February 13th.

Healy, Hostess To trinity Auxiliary t Miss Betty Crawford and Miss Margaret Masters have taken charge ‘ of a group to be known as the Junior Dramatic Club of St. James' Angli can Church. The first meeting was held on Monday afternoon in the women’s room of the parish hall. At this meeting, one of Stephen Leacock’s books, “Nonsense Novels," was pantomioed. A group of girls ranging from 10 to 15 years of age, presented the offering under the the direction of the sponsors. A very interesting time was sprat. The group will meet each Monday afternoon at 4.15 for study groups and presentations Plana are now being made by the dub for a Chinese Play and ft fa expected that there will be a considerable Interest taken in the newly formed dub, both by the 8frls and fey the church membersgenerally. I The local meeting in connection . with the World’s Day of prayer, was r held in the ladies’ parlor of Trinity i United Church, on Friday afternoon . and accorded a splendid attendance of the women of IngerooH, with Mrs. Gall charge of the service, which consulted of special prayer, hyniu.'i, , and an address by Mrs. J.

Special hymns were sung during the service, fOT which Ma. W» A. Elliott was accompanist. M)MbM*e Waters rendered a de solo, “Teach Me To the ofTertory,' and a number was contributed1?'’Elliott. The responsive readings X SCHOOL BOARD ESTIMATES DOWN OVER $2000 The firm of William Stone Sons Limited, founded by the late Mr. Wfllbm Stone, grandfather of two members of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Chib, F. Heath Stone and Reg. A Stone, formed the subject of an in teresting address by Kiwanian Don ald Mackenzie, chemist at the local factory, delivered before the Inger soll Kiwanis Club members at their weekly luncheon on 'Friday noon, at the Ingersoll Inn. “The firm of William Stone Sons Limited," said Mr. Mackenzie, “was founded by the late Mr. William Stone. It ,was first situated in Wood- stock and opened as a company deal ing in hidea and wool. In 1890 Mr. William Stone retired and Mr. Arthur W. Stone, father of Mr. R. A ' Stone, assumed charge. Mr. A. W. Stone formed the company into a limited stock company in 1907 andheaded the| organization until 1931 when he resigned. Mr. F. Heath Stone is now president of the com pany and his predecessor in that position still takes an active interest in the business. After being organized as a Limited Stock Company, a «n»U rendering department was started, producing grease, tallow, animal tankage and bone meal. This was the origin of the fertilizer department In 1911, the fertilizer factory was built in Inger soll and the company branched out into the fertilizer field, but with ani mal tankage and bone being the big end of the business. Commercial fertilizer was little used at that time and the company hod to carry on andfextensive educa tional campaign to acquaint the far mers with the value of fertilizer and encourage them to make use of it Mr. Mackenzie pointed'out that William Stone Sons Limited was one of the pioneer companies in the in dustry in Canada and had experien ced a steudj growth as the business advanced throughout the Dominion. In 1924 the rendering department was further enlarged and more mod ern equipment installed. In 1929 : a meat parking department was started and meat was packed for fox ' food and stdd to fox ranches. Today the company baa a variety ! r of departments, amongst which are , hides, wool, furs, fertilizers, livestock feeds, insecticides, fox meat, greases^ tallows and other minor by-product*. The speaker gave a general out line of theVvarious departments, the products received from each, and told of the purpose of these products and described many of their usee. Dealing particularly with the fer tilizer end of tihe business, Mr. Mac kenzie (Anted that the popular but erroneous idea of fertilizer was thatft is all animal material. In 1907, this was mostly true, hut to-day, National Fertilizers are maje up ofmaterials from of world, carertilly blended and cured, .to suit the particular pbmt and soil for which they are produced.

The main business considered at • the special meeting of the Board of Education held (Monday evening was the striking of the estimates for the year 1937. Despite the employment' of an additional teacher on the Col legiate Institute staff and the neces sity of doing considerable repairs to the school buildings, the Board was able to make a reduction in the amount to be raised by assessment for school purposes of $2149.00 un der that of 1936. I-ast year the mount required for Public Schools was 826,735.00, while thia year it is only >24,886.00, or a reduction of 81849.00. The Colleg iate estimates in 1935 were >19,- 536.00. This year the Board will re quire >19.235.00. The reduction made by the Board thia year will amount to a earing of approximately 7/10 of a mill in the tax rate.

R. VEALS, PublisherPHONESTribune Office, 13 - ReaMenee, 442A.THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 18th, 1937The Place of Pension*Those who are blind and those who are interestedin their welfare should be on their guard against thespread of die idea that the establishments cd a pen sions scheme for the blind means the final solution of all the problems of the blind. It must not be for gotten that pensions are (being sought for, and will only be granted to, those amongst the blind who, through age or other infirmity, are not capable of earning enough to support themselves. To the roan or woman in full possession of health and laboring under no other handicap than that of blindness, the pension, when it comes, may not be of very great value. The state is not being asked to provide a pension for every blind person, young or old, rich or poor, tuck or well. It is, of course, impossible to forecast the provisions of the pensions bill which is to be brought down during the present session of the House, but there is a possibility that the benefits will be accorded to no blind person under the age of forty yeans and will only lie given to those over forty who are not earning a substantial yearly income. It is to be hoped that the pension, when paid, will be generous, but it ia idle to suppose that a scale of pensions will be established which will do very much more than provide for the living necessities of the recipient. That is to say, there is no likelihood of pensions being paid at a rate which will make it desirable from an income point of view. The man or woman who is capable ofl earning will be better off at work than on pension. It is believed by those who have been advocating pensions that they will remove from blind people the necessity of appealing for relief, but it has never been suggested that they could or would take the place of the work being carried on by the Canadian National Institute for the Blind. There is some danger that the general public may assume that the begin ning of pensions means the end erf their interest or responsibility in connection with the welfare of the sightless members of the population. Some of those interested in the Institute might harbor the fear that the inauguration of pensions would mean the cessation of public support to the Institute, necessitating the closing up of workshops and library; the abandonment of home-teaching and prevention activities; the clos ing of homes and residences; the cessation of social service work and the surrender of concession stands and privileges secured from transportation and thea trical companies. Such fears are groundless. Can ada, as has been stated many times, is the only im portant unit of the English-speaking world, where pensions for the blind have not been set up. The experience of other countries indicates that pensions do not mean the end of all work for the socialization and economic freedom of the blind, but that greater activity in these fields develops after the acceptance of the pension scheme. It has been found, apparent ly, that when pensions were granted to that portion of the Hind population debarred from making an ade quate income by age or other infirmity, greater op portunities could be developed for the younger and more energetic blind people. There is every reason to believe that similar results will become apparent in Canada when pensions be come law. The Canadian National Institute for the Blind looks forward to the establishment of pensions as a point from which to embark on an era of greater progress in all its endeavors on behalf of all blind people, including those on pension. No pension scheme can ever take the place of the work being done by the C.N.I.B. What pensions will do is simply to regularize and put on a secure, acceptable basin, the furnishing of certain basic nec essities. Pensions anil leave the Institute more free to proceed with the main objects for which it was created the discovery of industrial and commercial openings for capable blind artisans and merchants; the conduct of more active campaigns for the preven tion of blindness; the training and rehabilitation of thoee who lose their sight after school age; the main tenance of a library sendee; social service; the ad ministration of privileges and concessions accorded to the blind; the establishment and maintenance of residences and the consistent advocacy of the right of blind men and women to live normal lives and to take their places in the normal life of the com munity.—"National News of The Blind." British Isles to take advantage of the strong recoverythere.” To a degree these arguments appear sound.But thpir application will be contingent upon twoprimary factors: first the type of immigrant permittedentry must be carefully selected with a view to employment opportunities and requirements, as well osgeneral desirability; second the employment situationmust have improved to where such incoming laborpower can be absorbed. • Until that balance can beachieved this country, needing more citizens, yetscarcely able to maintain those she already has, is onthe horns of a dilemma.THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, FEB. 18, 1937 The People Own Hydro "We and not the Government, are the qwnera of Hydro." That assertion made at the opening session of Ontario Municipal Electric Association in Toronto last week may well be impressed not only upon the administration at Queen's Park but on the people of Ontario generally. Hydro is their utility, created for their advantage and it behooves them to guard their possession vigilantly particularly at a time when Hydro and Hydro affairs have been tossed into the political arena in a manner that can be neither desir able or reassuring. The Government’s repudiation of the Quebec power contracts cannot be condoned and, as it now begins to appear, may also turn out to have been a blunder. Despite the shouting and the tumult over allegedly "iniquitous" arrangements made for the insuring of an adequate power supply for thia Province, there can bo little question that much of the power originally contracted for will be needed and probably much sooner than some people anticipated, in which case the situation, to say the least, will be embarrassing. Even aside from that consideration there can surely be no dodbt that a calm and reasoned negotiation with the power companies would have been infinitely pre ferable to the furore created by outright cancella tion, a move which has certainly done Ontario’s credit no good. As the President of the O.M.E.A., Mr. F. C. Elliott, declared, Hydro belongs not to the Government, or to the Commission, but to the people. It to not a pawn to be moved, whenever the occasion arises, over the political chess-board. Growing realization of this fact will reinforce the demand now made by Mr. Elliott that the Hydro consumers should have an audible voice in the conduct of what is, after all, their affair, by being accorded representation on the Hydro-Elec tric Power Commission—Brantford Expositor, Contented Oxford County For many, many years, the County of Oxford ha? been in the unique position of being perhaps the most prosperous of any county in the Province of Ontario; and there is a reason for it; and that reason is not tobacco. For the part 60 years, to our certain knowledge, Oxford farmers have devoted their energies to general fanning—the raising of grain, cattle, houses, hogs and poultry. It has been probably the heaviest cheese-producing county in all Canada, and today, in driving through the county from Norwich to Mount Elgin and north, to Ingersoll, scarcely a farm is with out a silo; while the herds of Holsteins on almort every farm, are a delight to the eye. Hogs by the hundreds, and large flocks of poultry are everywhere in evidence. These are the secret of Oxford's pros perity, and during the recent years of depression, while conditions generally all over the country, were anything but satisfactory, Oxford County moved along serenely; did not feel the pinch, and maintained its position as the richest county in all Canada, with the largest per capita income. It is regrettable that Essex County with land the moat fertile in the Dominion, is not in the enviable position of Oxford. The reason, however, is plain tj anyone who may compare the farming methods of Lcth counties.—Kingsville Kt porter, Centenary of✓Dwight L. MoodyThe Centenary of Dwight L.Moody, one <xf the immortals ofProtestant evangelism, will be internationally celebrated during 1937.Following is a condemned outline ofhis career:—Dwight Lyman Moody was born inNorthfieQd, Massachusetts, on Febru ary 5th, 1837. His childhood and youth gave little indication that he was to become the most powerful spiritual figure of his generation and a permanent influence on the religious life of his country. As a boy he worked on the farm and at the age of seventeen, went to Bos ton to become a salesman in his uncles’ shoe store. One of the con ditions imposed on him was that he must attend the Mount Vernon Con gregational Church and Sunday School. It was under the guidance of his Sunday School teacher, Ed ward Kiniball, that the lad under went a religious convention. Com bined with this religious zeal was the ambition to foe successful, and Moody moved on tb Chicago where he was soon a prosperous salesman. Immediately upon his arrival he be came active in church work, and or ganized a Sunday School class for poor bays, ranking second in size in the West In 1860, at the age of twenty- three, Moody gave up business to devote himself entirely to religion. He participated in numerous interde nominational projects, and assumed the leadership of the Chicago Young Men’s Christian Association, which had just been organized. When the Civil War broke out. Moody assisted in forming an Army and Navy Com mittee of the “Y" and later worked among the soldiers at the front. Through these years, he was acquir ing the insight into human character and deepening spirituai power, which coupled with his magnificent energy and courage, was to fit him for the tremendous work of evangelism. His war activities brought him na tional attention, and Moody became popular throughout the country as a religious speaker. our fu el bills are lower Those who have changed to the modem, all-Canadian fuel —Hamco Coke—are finding each day a new comfort, more even heat in every room, and less back-breaking labour.

It is quite clear that for a Dominion having well over three and a half million aquare mBea of territory, Canada’s population of about eleven million people ia inadeqaute to the point of being not only ridiculous but dangerous. What, for instance, ia the real sense of talking about any self-contained defense program erbr-rc there ia so vast an area to be patrolled by a fighting force, which, if mired to the po-edble maxi mum, would Mill be laughably inadequate? From a theoretical and even from a logical angle, therefore, the need of a population more proportion ate to the square mileage of thta great land can aearevly be denied. In the Wert last summer the problem was the subject of a conference and there to some Indication that it may come before the Feder al Parliament for consideration tn the not far dis tant future.

And w the business that had been so king established kept running merrily along and the sutecriber who quit passed the office occasionally and wondered what was keeping the business from falling apart. But he never found out.

Moody was never ordained to the ministry, but always remained a lajman. His campaigns in Great Britain were equalled only by thoae of Whitefieid and Wesley, a hundred years before.

In addition to the fellowship with one’s colleagues from ail parts of the country, and the exchange of ideas and experiences there were some very valuable sessions on phases of Y. M. C.

Barnett, New York (and for 25 years with the Y in China) and the Hon. Nornnsn McL. Rogers, Minister of Labour. Mr. Barnett spoke at the session on the Foreign Wort of the Y. M. C. A. He told a graphic story of how the staffs in the foreign field had been recalled during the past few years at economic stress, and how some of the men refused to come home and stayed on, living on what means the}’ had. He told of heroic work of these men and appealed for a budget increase of $50,009 over last year to enable the International Committee to restore in part the salaries of some of these men and to send other men out to the foreign field. The response of the meeting was remarkable. Practically every delegate present accepted the increas ed allotment for the foreign work and in most cases voluntarily increas ed that amount.

Hearingthat another boat is to start north tnthe mornlnf, EHen goes to the owner.John Benham, and bece him to clveher a passage. To her surprise he flatlyrefuses.Angry and puzsled, Ellen tells PatMcClatchney, a kindly old storekeeperof her dinieulty. and Pal with the helpot one of Benham's crew, succeeds ingetting Ellen on board as a stowaway. When the vessel is well under wayEllen emerces from her hldinc placeand faces John Benham, who now cannot help taking her with him.During the voyage Ellen begins to bestrongly attracted by John. But whenshe reaches Fort Edson she finds herfather broken. Ill and disgraced, andlearns that his troubles are due to oneman—John Benham "I have thought of little eke. since learning about it," she said wearily “I refuse to give up without a bat tle. but it seems almost beyond hope to think of averting it.” Deteroux’* cold eyes gleamed in open admiration. "You are very courageous, mam'selle. And Bernard Deteroux will be most happy to help you in any way possible. Now, be cause 1 have been much through allthis country and you have but latelycome back to it, it may be that I ^ould give you information of manykinds, should you desire it. Ask me what you will. I promise that your confidence will not be abused."* Ellen looked at him seriously for a moment She sensed breeding behind Deteroux somewhere. The man did not talk like the usual run ofriver-men. His brain was plainlyalert, his tongue fluent. "Very well,” said Ellen presently"In a case of this son it is well to know one’s enemies in their true light. My father feels that John Benham, the free trader, is to blame for all his woes, (s it possible that oneman can come into this district andin three years upset the reputation of an old, establshcd post like FortEdson ’’’ Deteroux shrugged. "It would•eem so, mam'selle. I know of no other free trader in your territory but John Benham." “But how can he do it?” persisted of all tricks, bestialising and robbingthe Indians through the medium offorbidden whisky? “I wish merely to be fair," shestammered. “You are admirable, mam'selle. You would be a gallant enemy inany battle. But this thing I know— and if necessary—can furnish proof." Ellen's truant impulse died hard.“Is it reasonable that he, being of their blood, would deliberately brutalise them and rob them for his own selfish gain?"“Reasonable?” said Deteroux witha short, barking laugh. "Not to us, perhaps. But what is that which issaid about the half-breed? He has all the vices and none of the virtuesof either side of his heritage. Perhaps in John Benham this is also true. The Indian in him schemes tosatisfy the greed of his white ances try. If you had known men as I have known them, mam'selle, youwould not wonder at anything they do"Ellen was silent for a long time.She knew Deteroux was watching Finally she sighed and drew herthoughts back into more direct channels. Here at least she had a clear,damning trace to follow. The secret of John Benham’s exploitation of the FortEdson territory was plain. Her mode of attack was simple and direct. Proofof his trickery to offer to the law.And she must act now, while the trad ing season was at its height Immediately a load seemed shifted from her mind. She could think clearly at last, for ahead lay action. True,there was some strange, crushing weight in her breast which made hercuriously cold and unfeeling. The John Benham she had known had seemedso dean and fine, yet she was nowpossessor of knowledge which made him that meanest and lowest of allmortals: a man who traded upon the weakness of the ignorant and primitive. And he was a half-breed f Feverishly she began her preparations. Her father objected strenuouslyto what she had in mind, but she over rode his objections with firm determination.

U U I Ellen “He cannot afford to ottermore in trade than can the Hudson Bay Company'True." nodded Deteroux "Yet,perhaps, it is not how much he offers for his fur,, but what he offers."EHen stared at him for a moment.*’l do not ur-dersiaiid. ' she said slowly“I forget, mam'selle " went on Deteroux • wihly. I forget thatwhen you leit this post four yearsago. the old order still existed But in four years, many things maychange, as you know hi many ways our Indian is a child. He has idealsthat are strange, mam'selle, andwhich we cannot grasp Also he has weaknesses upon which the unscrupulous may trade. An Indian valuesmany things, mam’selle. but most of *11 he values—whisky.”Ellen's eyes widened At last she saw. "Whisky," she murmured“John Benham trades whisky forfurs? Hut that is against the law. The North west Mounted Police willnot permit trading whisky to theI ndians " Deteroux laughed softly "Youf- get. mam'selle You forget that iDnigh they ire a great organisa-ii i, ihc red-coats arc, after all, but men They arc few and the north » mitey is measured in millions of«<.'uare miles They cannot be in all places at once. And if Benham is■ m ining as we know he is. he can d - much that the law cannot prove. Ami the law must have proof"Deteroux gave vent to another of is expressive shrugs “What cando without the law1 And then!-o—what can wr prove5 Wr know,but We cannot prove—yet. Perhaps,taler this weapon may lie in our hands. And then—there is anotherthing.”"What t* that " Deteroux looked at Ellen steadily You must understand, mam’selle, that I do not like gossip But in mydesire to help your father - amt you - I will speak it John Benham trades well with the Indians, notonly because he gives them whisky —but because he is of their blood.He is one of them ”For some strange, inexplicable reason. Ellen flared almost angrilyat this accusation The reaction was unconscious, yet none the less hon- “|» this also something you know, but cannot prove?" she asked, andher manner was cold Deteroux looked at her with in-scratable eyes “Docs it matter5" he asked answering question with ques tion.Ellen felt the hot blood rushing through her cheeks. Shame grippedher Why had she flared so quicklyin defence of a man toward* whom all things pointed as being tlte causeof her father’s misfortune- a man who stooped to that most dastardly Ellen Mackay was crouched in the bow of a slender birch-bark canoe 'her closely Grudgingly she gave in."You must be right. Mr Deteroux. There is no other way in which hecould have stolen the trade from usin »<> short a time ” 1 "You reason correctly, mam’selle,''said Deteroux, and it seemed as though there was an unconscious .note of triumph in his voice "I hopei you will not think me now as just a gabbling old woman, but one whosincerely wishes to help your father and you. Facts, though unpleasant,are best faced squarely and uncompromisingly And if at any time I can be of further help to you, youhave but to command" ' “Thank you. You have already-shown me a way out of my dilemma " "May I presume to ask what thatis?”I "Of course It is to furnish proof to the Irw that John Benham istrading whisky to the tribes. He will then be removed quickly and forgood "Deteroux seemed to hesitate. | Something flashed in hi* eyes, whichseemed momentarily to show emo tion for the first time Then hecaught up his guard again “I hesitate to warn you, mam'selle. But you must always remember thatJohn Benham is lighting for high stakes In a pinch he might becomequite ruthless "“I am not afraid," said Ellen quietly. “I. too. can be ruthless ""That is true,” nodded Deteroux thoughtfully. “Well, duty calls, andthe river trails are long. I will seeyou again, mam'selle—when I re turn."Ellen suffered him to bow over her hand, though at the contact ofhis hard, calloused palm she couldhardly repress a shiver Strangest of all, perhaps, was the fact that shecould not analyse that flurry of feel ing. It might liave been repugnance, or then again it might have beensomething else, There was no deny ing the magnetism and virility of thisman. Then another strange thinghappened. As Deteroux swung his huge bulk through the doorway,Ellen caught a glimpse of old Moosic’s wrinkled face just beyond,and Moosac was openly snarling.At sight of tbe Indian, Deteroux seemed to hesitate, then, with a swift,cold laugh he elbowed the old Chip- pewyan aside and swung off on hisway Ellen .farted to the door At sightof her Muusac slunk away also, and when she called to him he did notanswer For a long time Ellen stood there,”uz*led furrow* wrinkling tier smoothbrow Distinctly die sensed some omi nous uodercurrmt of stark conflict andhate swirling about her It was inex plicable, but it was there Thg moreshe tried to draw strange ends together and make some true picture of it, the mure confusing ii all was over nver and forest, Ellen Mackay was crouched in the Ixiw of a slenderbirch-bark canoe, her face turned towards the north In the centre of thecanoe was a heap of baggage. In the rear was wrinkled, hunched old Moo sac, wielding a dripping paddle.Lightly the canoe slipped away into the darkness. The dim lights of FortEdson paled and faded from view. Twelve days after leaving Fort Edson, Ellen found her first evidence ofJohn Benham'* nefarious trading acti vities. She came upon a tmall camp ofI.aird Indians, and saw there the in fluence of “firewater" in all its hell-ishnes*. Less than a dozen families made up the camp. Their poverty was heartrending. The bucks were blear- eyed and besotted, sullen and stupid. Gaunt, stony-faced squaw* stared atEllen in silence as she picked her way through t he.fi 1 thy jumble of the camp.It was the plight of the children, of apathetic, half-starved papooses whichparticularly tore at Ellen'* heartstrings. Unable to understand tlie brutishness of their elders, the look iotheir little eye* begging mutely forfood and still more food, their plight was pitiful in the extreme And if theywere starving now, in the midst ot spring and plenty, what would theirfuture be when the cold, merci let* hand of winter shut down again?A quick survey ami a question ot two. to which she received hardly mor athan a grant in answer, showed Ellen that their winter’s catch of furs were gone These fur* had gone to purchase"firewater,” when they should have l»een used to trade for food and blankets, clothes, ammunition, and other supplies to carry the camp through another winter. There was nothing Ellen could do. She left presently, with tbe whole tawdry picture etched upon her brain beyond all forgetting There was nomistaking this evidence It lay all about the camp in the form of dozens ofempty whisky bottles.Ellen travelled ceaselessly Bending her strong young body Io the task ofpaddhng. she drove Momnc to hi* labours until the old Clnppewyan washunched with uiarmess She foundcamps of Yellowkruve* and Dogrib*, of Rae and Simpson and Hay RiverIndian* m wln-h condition* approxi mated to thus of that first camp.Everywhere lay 'he evidence of the white man’* murderous greed and tbeIndian'* stupid weakness She shiveredwin-tie ver she thought of what would happen when winter shut down again.Everywhere she looked, instead of seeing tlie rioting splendour of the spring the dread spectre of famine andwholesale death seemed to loom It was there before her eyes a* shedropped to sleep at night, and was still with her when she awakened at dawn Continued Next lines SALFORD Mr. and Mrs. T B.

In last week’s discussion concerning the means by which a plant livesand grows, it was pointed out that a plant must have plenty of air and water in order that it may grow normally. The air is taken in through minute openings on the un der surface of the leaves and from it the plant obtains carbon dioxide which contains the two essential plant food elements, carbon and oxygen. Water is absorbed through the roots and supplies the two elements, hy drogen and oxygen, as well as acting an a carrier of the other plant foods, which the ptant can only obtain from the soil. The two sources, air and water, between them, contain three essentialptant food elements, carbon, ■ oxygen and hydrogen, and these’ I three make up ninety per cent or more of the fresh green plant How ever, the plant cannot live by these ' three elements alone. In order to live the plant must have at least seven more elements and scientific investigations indicate the possible necessity of several more. The seven which are known to be abso lutely essential are nitrogen, phos phorus, potassium, sulphur, calcium, magnesium and iron, but Sodium, Silicon, Chlorine, Manganese and Io dine are also usually found in plants and consequently may be essential to growth. While the seven or more essential elements just mentioned only make up between them a small portion of the , plant’s composition, yet they are of (vital importance because they are . needed by the plants, and plants can . only consume them by taking them (from the soil through the roots. This statement may seem strange in the case of the element Nitrogen, ' because three-quarters of the air 1 consists of nitrogen gas, but plants in general cannot use the free nitrogen 1 of the air and they must obtain their 1 supply from Nitrogen containing * compounds in the soil. There is an 1 exception to this statement because 1 legumes, such as clover and alfalfa, * are able indirectly through the aid of ' - bacteria, to use the nitrogen of theJ air aa food: These bacteria live intnodules on the roots of the Jegumea ' and the'y are able to take the nitro gen gas from the air in the soil and r pass it on in combined form to the i host pitants. When the plant has absorbed all 1 these essential elements, - it must build them up into complex substan- • ces, which make up the stem, twigs, leaves and so on. This building up ’ process is carried on in the leaves of the plant by means <rf chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is the living protoplasm of the cells of the leaf and it ta the substance which gives the green col oring to the leaf. The carbon dioxide, the water, the nitrogen and other minerail com pounds, are carried in the sap cur- rente to the living; green colored pro toplasm of the cells of the leaf. Here they are built into much more complex substances such as sugars, starches cellulose, fats and oils, pro teins and ami ds and bo on. During the building up of these complex substances in the leaf, the plant uses energy supplied by the sun. This energy becomes dormant in the plant, but when the plant is consumed by animals, it 1* released during digestion and produces beat and energy for the anima] body. The i sugars, starches, fats, proteins, found I in the plant will be utilized by the I animal which consumes it, for produc- | tion of heat and energy for animal life and the building up of body tis sues. We may sum this up by say ing plants are sun power machines for furnishing food to support ani mal life. We consume food in order to keep our body functioning. That food must supply all the essential elements which are necessary for animal life and those elements must eventually come to us through the direct or in direct consumption of plants. The plant can obtain certain of these ele ments only from the soil and if any of them are tacking or Insufficient in the soil, normal plant growth ta not GEORGE WILBUR SPINNEY General manager of Bank of Montreal, was born at Yarmouth, N.

It should be the aim of every plant grower to feed these es sential elements to his plants by add ing them to the soil If the soil is de ficient in them. In that way the plants will have an opportunity to grow and produce crops of better yields and higher feeding quality. Better yield means better financial returns for labour and money in vested, while better feeding quality means better results from the Live stock which consumes these crops. PUTNAM AUCTIONEERS ALE$.

Dainty afternoon Picture* may be Improved during enlarging by controlling tones with a"shadow brush." 1I7HEN an advanced amateur »» or professional photographer shows some of his beautiful salonpictures to a group of Interested but uninitiated people, some of them are euro to aak questions such as these: “How In the world do you get those lovely tones? How did yoamake this picture so dark in this part and light In that? How did youget the soft effect In this one? Howdid you get the light to shine sobrightly on the principal object andscarcely at all on the rest of the picture? How do you make these objects tn the shadowy parts dim yetvisible; and objects in the light parte to stand out so distinctly? My camera won’t take pictures like that.” And the cryptic answer is likely to be. "Neither will mine, exactly.”"Then, how do you get all these different gradations in shadowtones? These pictures are like paintings. Do you touch up the negativewith something?”And the answer will be, “No, 1 donot touch up the negative; I dodgethe print” “Dodge the print? What do youmean—'dodge?’ ’’Then comes an explanation of a method whereby a very ordinary picture, as recorded on the nega^live, may often be transformed intoa work of art in the process of making an enlarged print of it “Dodging,” in the slang of photography,means interrupting same of thelight passing through the negativeto the sensitized paper during theprinting of the picture. "Dodging'’ may be done in contact printing, but more effectively in making enlargement*. It is done by holding something opaque between the lightsource and the paper, such as apiece Of cardboard, in such a wayas to keep the light from strikinga certain area for a certain portionof the time. Thus, that part whichcontinues to receive the full lightwill print darker than the part from which the Ught is held back. Inother words, the light is caused to •’dodge” a certain atea. Virtually, the shadow from the cardboard in the hands of the photographer is used as a palm brush. It serves to light the dark parte. In another way, a print te "dodged” by using a piece of cardboard with a hole in it. Tha bote lets through a pencil of light, which is manipu lated over the surface of the paper and serves to darken the light parts. The intelligent use of a "shadow brush" or “light brush” in this fashion requires a preliminary studyof the negative or a contact printas it would ordlnarilr register inorder to discover when.* “dodging"would improve the picture. Often it means a number'of trials before theresult is satisfactory. Amateurs who do not enlarge their own negatives may suggest to their photo finisher how they think a print may be improved by ‘ dodging,” and ask him fora speck.1 job on IL Of course, the greater sat isfaction comes from doing this work yourself. But that is the way many of the lovely effects we see insalon photographs are obtained. lib JOHN VAN GUILDER.
