Backhouse, Port Burwell, were outstanding figure* of the evening and took a prominent part in the proceedings. The idea was conceived and the ar rangements for the night were made by Garence Gorrie. the deputy post master of Woodstock, who is also the junior warden of Oxford lx>dge and and enthusiastic Worker in the Craft.

Phone 22 r W Brownsville Ont. If can municipal circle* it is the expenditures of the Board of Education. The high cost of education today and the cx- travagencc of the school trustee* can invariably start a debate. It is a ques tion which is not confined to London only. It is a common problem to all government*, municipal and provincial, in Canada. It i* equally important in the United State*. All over the con tinent in the past couple of decade* the cost of education ha* arisen and rate payers arc making themselves vocifer ous on the jubject. In the last issue of the Kiwanis Mag azine is an exceedingly interesting art icle on the subject written by Frank W. Ballou, •upcrintendcnt of schools for the City of Washington. D.C. While Mr. Ballou is writing in regard to American education hi* conclusions hold equally good for Canada. He gives a number of pointed reasons for the increased cost, all of which arc a* true for l-ondon a* the American cap ital. They arc: 1. The extraordinary increase school attendance in recent year*. pointe out that from 1913 to 1927 number of pupil* in attendance at *chool* of the United States increased by 484 per cent. The actual population increase in this period was only 205 per cent. What is more, the greatest attendance has been in the high schools, which, as a result, have called for an enormous increase in expenditure for secondary education. 2. An unusual increase in school building in the past decade owing to the cessation oi construction during the war. TTris is very true of London. For many year* there wa» no building in London, which necessitated an un usually heavy program during a short period. This is the first year there has been a let-up in building activities. If. ratepayer im- i rough building ,imi»t in regard evidence of the controversy in Tainted food is terribly dangerous to consumer* who. in thj ordinary course of events, must take many chances in 1 that regard. Not all hare proper places in which to keep food under ideal con ditions between meal lime*, and too many have to depend upon eating places where the conditions are what the proprietory and managers make them. True enough, many of these places are in municipalities where there is constant inspection in the interests of the public, but other* arc never sub jected to such scrutiny. The "safety first” campaigns of the last few year* have no doubt kept the number of accidents from increasing beyond alt proportion to the popula tion exposed to them. A "clean food” campaign steadily maintained for a lonjbperiod would be worth while for its educative value if for nothing else. But in view of the report that beef and pork will soon be so dear that only those with plenty of money will be able to buy them, there might be some trouble in stirring up the public cntHu- siasm. a quarter’s charge. The utility com mission has a satisfactory balance on hand and rather than make any change in rates has decided to give its patrons free water for the months of July. August and September. It means a matter of about $700 to the people of Alliston who use the town witer. A report issued by the Ontario fire marshal states that during thd month of August there were 1140 fires in On tario causing a loss of 5875.072 Loss not covered by insurance was $55,985 In August. 1927. there were only 840 fires, but they did damage to the extent of $1370681. Barn fires last month totalled 130, with a loss of $187,473. The increase of 300 fires, all kinds, over the same month a year ago, was due entirely, the report states, to lightning. Growth in Canada’s Mineral Industry 'In view of Ontario’s decision to in crease the tax on gasoline from three to five cent* a gallon, it may be noted that in Britain the lax is four pence (eight cents), while in the Republic to the south of u» five State* have a tax of 5 cents, one State 4% cents, twelve Stales 4 cents, one State 3% cents, fif teen State* 3 cents, and twelve Statei 2 cent*. Massachusetts and New York arc the only States listed as having no tax on gasoline.

That may not seem very important until a little thought is given to distance travelled by a car. operating at a very low rate of speed. The following table indicates the point aimed at: 10 miles per hour goes 14.66 feet per second; 15 miles, 23 feet; 20 miles. 2923 feet; 25 miles. 3635 feet; 30 miles. 44 feet; 35 miles. SI33 feet; 40 miles. 58.66 'feet; 45 miles. 66 feet; 50 miles. 7333 feet; 55 miles 8066 feet; 60 miles goes 88 feet. By this table it will be noted that a car even going only ten miles an hour travels some 14 feet in a second! How many people can estimate correctly even a distance of fourteen feet? And when a car is going at a still higher speed it is neces sary to judge even more closely. A keen eye and good brakes are very necessary if a car is to be driven safely in crowded traffic today.

The reason is that such articles become soiled with body secretions, and it is in these secretions that the disease germs leave the body and may be transferred to another person. It should not be necessary to warn against such obvious dangers as using the saliva to moisten the handkerchief to clean the baby’s face, or to give the baby something off the fork or spoon that has been in someone's mouth. There is one important practice for everyone, and that is the washing of hands before eating. Our hands be come soiled. We should train ourselves to keep them away from our faces.

During the half year ending June 30. 1928. the value of metals and non-metals pro duced from Canadian orc* at $105,631,- 571 surpassed the recorded output value for the first half of 1927 by nearly seven million dollars. Employment in the mining industry during the period ranged about seven per cent, higher thi* year than last and in metal mining and non-metal mining the improvement was in the neighborhood of 15 per cent, over the in I record* for the first half of last year. Gold, copper, nickel, lead, silver, and zinc were the principal metals, but in addition to these there were output* of cadmium (reported for the first time), arsenic, bismuth, cobalt, iron ore, plat- num. palladium and rhodium. Coal was the chief product in the fuels and non-mctallic mineral field. Other non-metal* of importance be sides petroleum and natural gas were asbestos, gypsum, salt, quartz, feldspar, magnesite, talc and soapstone. Many other minerals were produced in less amounts a*, for example, actinolite, barytes, bituminous sand*, diatomite, garnet*, graphite, mica, mineral waters, natro alunite, phosphate, pyrites, so dium carbonate and sulphate, volcanic dust and silica brick.

(Brantford Expositor) It was suggested at* the annual meet ing of the Sanitary Inspectors' Associ ation. held recently in Vancouver, that all meat offered for local consumption n Ihi* country should be subjected to inspection. At present meats (or ex port outside the province in which the catlie arc slaughtered, in case* where municipal by-law* so provide, arc in spected. There arc some variations, but the rule of inspection is not gen erally applicable, and the inspectors ad vanced a good many reasons as to why it should be. There are obvious difficulties, too. Many small municipalities could not afford, or would not scant, to bear the cost, or part of the cost, of *uch a plan, and it would not be fair to expect if all to be borne from the public fund* through a department of government. Then, again, there arc numerous rural communities where "meat rings” slaughter cattle at varying intervals for their own membership, and other* where this is done by village butchers serving a more or less scattered com munity. To keep up an inspection scheme which would meet conditions like these would bd a Usk requiring elaborate organization and involidng heavy expenie- T^bcrc sliould be little doubt, how ever, in this country as to the quality of meay of any kind or of food in general, offered for public consumption. The reports from the Prairie Prov inces indicate that the golden stream of grain it flowing steadily into the elc- I valors in larger quantities than ever recorded before, and breaking all rec ords. says the Brantford Expositor. On Wednesday last. 10340366 bushels of . wheat were received at the country ele vators. compared with 664.409 trasheb on the same date last year. Both the farmers and the railroads are making strenuous efforts to handle the crop. The farmers have been working from sunrise to sunset, with long hours be fore dawn and after dark added of late, in a prodigious effort to gather the har vest, while the good weather lasts. The demand is already keen as the mills arc waiting for shipments of wheat. The inspectors report that, while the percentage of number one hard is un doubtedly greater than last year, it is considerably below the expectations of the grain trade as a result of the frosts in August. On the other hand, num bers two and three northern are hold ing up well. One satisfactory feature of the faspcCtkMl is that the propor tion of non-grade wheat is smaller than in the early days of the movement. Also the •shipment of the grain to the Pacific coast is much greater than ever before in the history of the West. As tar as can be discerned, at the present time, the great crop is generally sale and the prospects arc that the golden stream of wealth irons the Prairie Provinces will Pour in larger channels' than ever into the business activities of the Dominion, thereby enriching the whole country.

In a temperature anything but pleas ant for the fans on Wednesday after noon. the Port Burwell team scored a second victory over Simcoe, the score being 10-1. The game, which was played in Port Burwell, was the second and deciding game of the series of home-and-home games to decide the inter-county championship. A good crowd was present and. despite the one-sided score, was rewarded by some good baseball. Scruton, Port Burwell's "kid" left-hander, held Simcoe help less. yielding only three hits, twb of which were of the scratch variety, and should have received a shut-out, only for an error. He struck out ten and was always on top of the batter, either striking him out or forcing him to roll out weakly to the infield. Only four balls were hit outside the diamond. The locals bunched their hits of! Thompson in the first, fourth and sixth innings for the ten runs. Scruton and Jackson of Pt. Burwell contributed the only extra base hits of the game, each getting a two-bagger. Howey kept up his batting, which has lasted throughout the play-offs, by securing two out of three. The league has just closed a most successful season, attend ance being much larger than last year, and great interest has been taken throughout the district. A banquet for the local team is being arranged, to be held in the near future, at the Amer ican Hotel, at which the Thayer trophy will be presented. Score:—R. H. E. Pt.

September 26th, was the final half-holiday of the season, and the store* will now continue open afternoons and evening*. being used for the old favorite songs. The meeting, in charge of the presi dent, Gladys Crooker, opened by sing ing Onward Christian Soldiers, and prayer by Ruth Meyer. The program was as followsScripture reading, repetition of GG.LT. code in unison, address of welcome by the president; leaders' welcome and announcements; two choruses by the entire group; Scout Leader Argue's address, in which he spoke optimistically of the future, which he assured hi* hearers would be greatly improved through the influence of the youthful training in such organizations. Much of the peace and brotherhood in the year* to come will depend upon the training of the young of today. Contrary to the common idea of Scout work, the or- pnixation-is everything but military in training. He then called upon the troop to repeat the Scout code, which h: said he had discovered was very similar to that of the group. A reci tation followed, and “Camp Life at Normandale Camp" was given b’* one of the members. An address by Rev Knight of St. Pauls, who advised the girls and boys, men and women, to get away from the everyday burden, whether school or business, and seek relief by such social gatherings. "Everyone needs the social time, occa sionally, too great application to busi ness and work very often is not good for us." In closing. Mr. Knight said he hoped the first gathering would prove so successful that it would be the first of a number of like functions. A piano solo and another sing-song concluded the first part of the program. The Scout part was held in the Sunday school room, which consisted of games, contests, etc., and was concluded by a delicious lunch, the singing of the National Anthem, and a men's novelty race. The regular weeklv meeting of the B.Y.P.U. of the local Baptist circuit was held on Friday evening in the local Baptist church, instead of the third Friday evening, as usual,, and was of an interesting character. A good at tendance was present. Jolly Social Evuut On Friday evening St. Paul's United church was the scene of a jolly social event, when the local GG.I.T. group entertained the 1st Pt.

The batteries, because of their ACTIVE part in radio operation, do become exhausted and need to be replaced with fresh batteries. To get the greatest economy in radio batteries always use Burgess or Eveready—long life is built into them at the fac tories under the supervision of the greatest electro-chemical laboratories in the world. Burgess and Eveready batteries are made in sizes for every radio purpose—each battery gives the longest service for its size of any radio battery made. We have the size for your set.

The fiercer the battle, the sweeter the reward of success. Thi* is the teaching which John gave to the saint* in his day who were passing through the fire of persecution. The bedraggled and blood-stained garments of the arena «rtc to he exchanged for robes made white in the blood of the Lamb. The erv of pain wa* to be changed nto a shout of triumph. Tho*c who refuted to bow the knee to the pagan Emperor of Rome were to stand rejoicing around the throne of the King of King*. The Apostle Paul taught the tame truth when he spoke of afflictions a* workine a great measure of glory. Tribulation becomes the lot of all »oon- er or later. For the one without hone of heaven such tribulation is without comfort. For the Christian, tribulation become*.the pathway to victory. There is fellowship with all the saint* who have triumphed over the world, the flesh and the devil, and the assurance that by God's help he too shall join the victorious throng, and mingle hi* Praise* with their*.

At this time the president said some one was to give a piano solo, he wasn't sure who. whereupon Mist Etther Remolds arose to the occasion and to the strains of the Lohengrin wed ding march, through the entrance door came one of the daintiest of little bride* and a most handsome groom in the person of Elizabeth and John Hone, bringing with them on wheel* a very artistically conducted house. The bride wa* dressed in white, wearing a veil and carried a large bouquet of everlasting flowers, while the groom wa* attired a* usual with the addition only, of a high hat and a very happy smile. At thi* time Mr, and Mrs. Roy Crandall were in vited to take possession of the minia ture house, and strip it of it* content*. Not being able to enter by the door, the roof was removed, and one could scarcely believe unless they had seen, that so many articles were necessary to happiness in a kitchen, as the num ber* removed from the inside of this house. When entirely emptied of its contents, Mr. Crandall, in a few fitting and very “serious” remarks thanked everyone foe their generous gift*. The meeting closed with a hymn and the usual benediction. Those members who were not present, and those who should be members who were not present, better come next week, one never knows what they are going to mis* by absent.

JkzL- Girlies’ Winter Coats 6 to 10 Years $3.95 to $11.50 The Editor of the Northern Miner has just completed an aeroplane trip to the Canadian sub-Arctic, up to the west shore of Hudson Bay and across the Barren Lands. He accompanied a director of Dominion Explorers, one of the companies that has undertaken intensive exploratins of the far north. Much of the ground traversed is supposed to have never before been covered by man. The plane was the first to cross the Barren Lands that lie between Hudson Bay and the Mackenzie River Basin. The purpose of the t rip was to get an idea as to the conditions under which prospecting parties, sent into the territory by Dominion Explorers, N.A.M.E, Cyril Knight Prospecting. Nipissing mines or other organizations were working, and as much first-hand information as possible as to results obtained to date. Except for short delays, caused by unfavorable flying weather, the schedule laid out for the trip was easy kept. It took 40 flying hours, spread over 12 days, to cover over-3.900 miles. This is believed to be the most ambi tious air trip made in Canada to date. Every preparation for the trip was made by Dominion Explorers and Western Canada Airways. One of the latter company’s planes was chartered from Winnipeg, and it functioned per fectly throughout. The crew were Western Canada Airways men, C. L Dickens, pilot and ** mechanic.Wm.

By Richard To the writer, the __ presions of the trip were: The vastness of the country- How- ridiculous is the talk of a race to prospect it. Ease of prospecting, due to the little drjft and in parts complete bareness ol the rocks, once one is in the country. How essential it is that prospecting parties be properly organized, for the country appears quite competent of living up to its reputation for cruelty, even to those who .think they under stand it after years of living there. That the man who named the big tract north and east of the tree line the Barren Lands could not have chosen a better name. Admiration for the men who police that country, operate trading posts or attended to the spiritual needs of the people. A wholesome respect for the explor ers of years ago who travelled parts of it on land and water, that could not be appreciated except by seeing the country. And last, but not least, a feeling that some day there will be mines oper ating up there, pushing the vanguard of Canadian civilization into a country that most of us have believed useless. All this talk of a race to corral the minerals riches of the sub-Arctic, par ticularly along the northwest coast of Hudson Bay. could be most expres sively described as "bunk.” Newspap ers have run columns about the trips north of the schooners “Patrick and Michael" and "Morso,” their race to get into the country, which was ahead on the I ong jaunt from the Maritime Provinces, etc., but to one who has been up there and had a look, the talk seems ridiculous. It might have been true that the several expeditions sent into, that area this yjar paid first at tention to the points* where mineral outcrops had been noted by explorers of years ago. but there is no close rivalry noticeable. Unfortunately, so it was learned from men who had in vestigated these points of interest, they were not of outstanding import ance. The supposed copper fields around Rankin and Chesterfield Inlets have yet to be found. Some copper sul phide bodies have been located, but they are not considered valuable at this time.

The idea the writer is trying to put across is that the country will have to be thoroughly gone over like other prospective min ing areas of Canada are being gone over. The job will be a (ar less diffi cult one. once men are on the ground and have assurance of getting out for the winter, or have been provided with suitable accomodation on the spot. There are, however, many distinct differences between the sub-Arctic and the mineral areas of other parts of Canada. This is particularly so along and near the shores of Hudson Bay and west into the Barren Lands. And that huge tract is well named. Much of it is barren of anything but rock and water. This, of course, makes it the most easily prospected country- one could imagine. Already quite a part of it has been gone over, at least it seems quite a pan. but is really a very small one. Prospectors of Domin ion Explorers have covered a hundred square miles. N.A.M.E. men have also representatives of other organizations, but their activities of this year have made only an impression on the most favorable areas. At the rate -of pro gress so far it will take many years to prospect the sub-Arctic. Dominion Explorers is establishing bases at strategic points, and from these prospectors are working. Planes keep in touch with them. N-A.M.E. uses its schooners as a base and has a number of planes also. Mineral Has Been Found As far as could be learned nothing, of outstanding importance has been found so far. That there is mineral in interesting quantities is certain. The Northern Miner saw gold in quartz taken fyom a narrow vein. This might have been of value if located in one of the older and more accessible min ing areas, but was not even staked. The prospecting parties have had a number of thrills, gold and copper dis coveries, but these will have to be more thoroughly investigated. One ol the parties heard that a rival concern had found placer gold. From the standpoint of organiza tion prospecting sub-Arctic stands out by itself. Nowhere else in Canada would it be possible to go over an area systematically with an assurance of finding mineral if ft ia there to be found. XWiile there ia in places a cer tain amount of drift, prospector. have been travelling on foot as much as 20 miles in a day. Crossing the Barren I-*nds, the plane went over a stretch between 150 and 200 miles where the onlv things to be seen were bare rock and water; even the moss and other Artic plants to be seen along the Hudson Bay coast were absent. The lakes in that stretch appear to have no vegetation to support fish. Our journey roughly was from Win- nineg to Fort Churchill, on Hudson bay. thence north to Mistake Bay, across Rankin Inlet to Chesterfield In let west to Baker Lake, southwest to Lake Athabaska, and the Great Slave country, and back to Winnipeg, via Cold Lake area of Northern Mani toba. The route included parts of the provinces of Manitoba. Saskatchewan and Alberta and a sizable section of the Northwest Territories. Side trips were made to points of particular in terest. The pilot’s report shows ’ the air trip totalled 3.964 miles. The Little Fellow The idea some people have when the Hudson Bay “ reaches Fort Churchill next year it will be possible for prospectors to go nto the country like they have in the treed parts of Canada, in parties of two, is not likely to be fulfilled. If it s, there is likely to be some trouble with those ill equipped. The experi enced prospector will find his bush sense of little use to him, for when ie gets beyond the tree line he might just as well leave his axe behind. His greatest difficulty will be to get fuel, and he will probably have to use a primus stove, which burns gasoline, lot a very satisfactory substitute for the bush fire he is accustomed to. As far as the winter is concerned, inless he is prepared to live like the Eskimo, he will need an exceedingly well built cabin, a low-lying building to catch as little as possible of the breeze of 20 or 30 miles an hour that seems always to be present. He will not find the winter much colder than some of the settled parts of Canada, but- the stories about winter storms in that country told by trading post men and missionaries, arc enough to make one prefer the home fires. Of course, the farther north he goes the shorter will become winter days. It is obvious that unless sufficient business war rants the taking in of lumber, coal, food and other neces sities to convenient points along Hudson Bay. the small-scale prospect ing endeavor of that country will be confined to a short summer season. Travelling along the” coast in small boats is none too safe, wind and tide being troublesome. Anyone reading of the trips made by Tyrrell and other explorers along the coast can easily gather the difficulties that can be met. For the time being, at least, it is obvious that most of the prospecting will be by Urge organizations. Much information has been had about the requirements of the country from this year’s experience. NA.M.E. took • that that Railway with their businm of taking in men to work on the Fort Churchill harbor improvements. The Nelson River is not the easiest place in the world to park a flying machine. It is a wide, fast stream and on its lower stretches its banks arc in places at least 200 feet high. To assist plane landing two mechanics stationed at Jackfish go’ waist deep into the water. It was ice cold, but they didn’t seem to mind much. MO® ®T Mu«ke* On leaving Jackfish the morning of August 31st the course was changed to north to get to the Churchill River. 75 miles from the Nelson. It was origin ally planned to have the terminus of tlie Hudson Bay Railway at York Factory at the mouth of the Nelson, but a switch was made to Fort Churcill to get a better harbor. The wisdom of this move is quite apparent, but from the plane it is possible to sec many miles of abandoned right of way Mile after mile of muskeg was cross ed and most of the good tree growth along the route has been burned. It was a dreary trip, with only small keg* rel,e*,n< ”c monolon>’ of mus- Fort Churchill was reached and pass ed about noon, .but heavy fog along the shore of Hudson Bay made a re turn to that point necessary. A land ing was made in the harbor, but a heavy rip from the outgoing tjde. add ed to the normal eight mile an hour current of the river, made the stay there an uncomfortable one. the party getting more or less drenched with ice- cold water However, in a short time the fog lifted and the on its trip along the coast.

Dominion Explorers also took in a schooner. "The Morso," and while this company is also using planes to carry prospectors, permanent bases are being established. The men will winter in them. Particular attention has been given to a type of construc tion that will meet sub-Arctic condi tions. The outside of the buildings is made of five plies of lumber and build ing paper, with two air spaces in the walls. What illustrates more than anything else the fuel difficulty, or rather ab sence of fuel in the country, is the fact that about one-third of the cargo of "The Morso” was coal. Just what it will cost landed on the Hudson Bay coast has yet to be worked out. but it will bring it closer to black diamonds. First Stop Norway The plane trip started at Winnipeg. Norway 1 north end of Lake Wii its name of Hou*. and finished at Winnipeg. Norway House, at the north end of Lake Winnipeg, was reached in less tan four hours, or at the rate of over 100 miles an hour. This was on August 28th. Here the party had its first taste of the splen did hospitality to be received at all points of call— Norway House is not only an old Hudson’s Bay Company trading station, but is quite a com munity. A large number of people spend their summer vacations in the vicinity. There is a very large Indian mission, a wireless station operated by the Dominion Government, a detach ment of Royal Air Force men, who >atrol the immediate vicinity by plane, and the district headquarters of the provincial fire rangers. It was not until nearly noon the next day that the wind was strong enough to get the plane off the water. Fog was encountered just beyond the last crossing of the Nelson River by the Hudson Bay Railway, so a land ing of a couple of hours was made be fore proceeding to Jackfish Island, a R.A.F. station on that river, about a hundred miles from York Factory. Air impressions of the Nelson do not de tract from the book descriptions of this magnificent body of water. Tre mendous waterfalls were seen, a store house of hydro-eletric energy for the future. That some of these falls are capable of developing 200,000 h.p. is readily realized. The Nelson water is muddy from sediments picked up by its tributaries that extend west to the Canadian Rockies. In places the river enlarges to form beautiful Forest growth is thick and varieties seem to be about the same as in Northern Ontario, firs, birch, tamarac and poplar. Until after the last crossing of the river by the Hud son Bay Railway is reached, little evi dence of forest fire can be seen, but beyond that deep brown and black scars cut into the green. Two nights were spent at Jackfish Island, because of unfavorable weath er.

Comfort for Shw.ru where always enjoy a good play capably presented, and they are driv ing to St Thomas and London to see them. After the play a lunch is in or der, and if one could peep into many of these cars returning homeward, among various articles would be found groceries from Loblaw's and Eaton’s groceterias, shoes, new hats, and many other articles too numerous to mention. This condition of affairs is happening every day in the week, and if not elimi nated will prove a dangerous thing to local merchants and the entire town in general. A few days ago a represen tative from the Jane Hastings Stock Company, now playing in St. Thomas, visited Tillsonburg with the object of presenting Abie’s Irish Rose in Till sonburg on Monday evening. October 1st. owing to the Tivoli Theatre in that city being used by the Dumbelis on that date, but of course he was surprised to learn that Tillsonburg possessed a fine opera house and no license to run it. and consequently he did the next best thing, and took the play to Aylmer. This beautiful play, endorsed by press and pulpit, could have been presented in Tillsonburg for 75c, 50c. 35c admis sion, yet if same had been presented the town of Tillsonburg would have been liable to a fine of $200.00 for using their own opera house. The license for the year is $12000. and the season ex tends from now till the first of May. Tie entire matter lies with the town council, and they can either discourage or encourage extra business to come to the merchants on Broadway. There is no doubt but what the citizens of Tillsonburg wqpld like to see the opera house doing business to pay off that debenture debt of $2186.42, but it is impossible as long as the council as sumes the present attitude towards securing the necessary license. Taxpayer. (Toronto Telegram) Old Yonge street, at its southern Louisa street corner, rubbed its eyes this morning and looked again at a vision of white stone and bronze and apple green! Fifth avenue had come to a grey old Yonge street! Toronto is seeing visions these days of a new city rising up about her that mark her as a cosmopolitan centre. But n°l even the heart of Fifth avenue at its best has a more attractive building than the new John Northway establish ment which opened at ten o’clock this morning Ravishing models of the lat est Ians frocks in gorgeous windows lured many within. Of white stone, with bronze facade and show windows with apple green ontlming the other graceful openings at the 124-foot eight storeys is the new building. From its front entrance to its topmost floor it spells the last word in modern store beauty, charm and comfort for the shopper. CongiwU. by Rival. Its front facade this morning rivalled a fashionable debutante's first party. For great baskets of exquisite flowers decked each side of the entrance, and others were constantly arriving. They have the congratulatory cards of To ronto s most representative stores and had been sent in kindly greeting by the ftorthways business associates. Other flowers came from the Northway’s branch stores in six Ontario cities. 11 throngs of shoppers eager for a first glimpse of the beautiful new store were many well-known executives from other establishments. Just as so many Fifth Avenue shops make their entrance floor their gayest and most alluring scene, so has the new Northways. Flowers and jewellery purses, lingerie and dainty blouses, sweaters and hosiery, from the best houses on two continents are spread there in tempting array, ' Mezzanine Waiting-Room Along the north wall is a most de lightful innovation, a mezzanine bal cony. where shoppers may wait amid comfortable chesterfields, easy chairs, writing tables and magazines On the second floor is still another departure for Northway’s, for not only is the most enticing millinery to be Z u <L,ere; bul aho a "ew department of children s and infants' millinery and frocks and coats. On the third floor is still another won to the modern mother who tries to shop for that most difficult shopper, the flapper from 13 to 19. On this floor has been gathered everything that the flappers attire calls for now. Millin cry. dresses, sweaters and accessories are all assembled so that the young girl may be outfitted from head to foot without going off the floor. As through out the store the latest devices enable the customer to try on attire in both artificial and natural light. A charming rest room and dressing- room complete this floor.Next comes the ladies’ and misses' coats on fourth floor which also has a room for special orders, where lengths of cloth, including Rodier fabrics, are available. Fastion Show St**. Very up-to-the-second is the fifth floor, where a special stage with a drop curtain for fashion shows, special mannequin parades, etc. On the south east corner is a fitting room with charming Louis XVI. furniture, where the evening frocks can be seen. Stock rooms occupy the seventh floor, and on the eighth are the exec utive offices, the work room, alirratioo room and the employees’ lunch room. Adjacent to the work room are fitting rooms, where garments to be altered can be tried on with least loss of time. A special elevator in the squth wall also conveys garments on their hangers to the parcelling room, so that they are sent out in the best possible con- dition.

Between eleven o’clock and midnight ast Sunday, fire was discovered in the Urge tobacco storage bam on the farm of Mr. George Brownlee, who lives near Langton. in North Walsingham. U hen the family retired for the night, about ten o’clock, every thing about the place was in order, as Mr. Brownlee rad been particular in cautioning his helpers to exercise every care for the safeguarding of his tobacco crop, which was a very fine one of the flue-cured variety, all of which had been kilned and placed in storage, with the exception of the contents of two kilns. Toward midnight Mr. Brownlee’s daughter, who was sleeping upstairs on the south side of the bouse, aroused the family with the alarm that the barn was on fire. Mr. Brownlee, his son and two guests, who were staying in the house over night quickly responded, but the flames had made such headway that the owner was able to save only parts of two sets of new harness. The loss is a particularly heavy one, as the contents of the building included fifteen curings of the flue-cured to bacco. practically the whole of the crop taken from 18 acres; fifteen tons of hay; bushels of oats, and some im plements.

In thia paper, he summarise* the effect of six years' bonus payment* on the purchase of producers' milk on a quality basis. Commencing in 1922, this company fitted up a laboratory, and in April, of that year, started the scheme of pay ment for milk on a quality basis, in other words, they paid a bonus on high quality milk from a bacterial stand point. including B. Col* bacteria. The latter indicates manurial contamination or by dirty utensil*. Later they in cluded the butter fat content and paid a bonus for a higher per centage of fat. The speaker said:— "The farmers’ attitude to the scheme is very interesting. At first most of them regarded the movement as a fad, and not many took the matter seriously. After a time, when certain far mers 'names were regularly near the top of the list and receiving extra pay ment, more interest was taken, and the quality of the milk supply began to improve.

There are. therefore, thirty-six senders of about one hundred and forty, who receive extra price* for their milk." A complete list is sent to each far mer showing the farmers' name* in or der of merit, so that they all know the position of their neighbor*. This we regard as a very important point, the rivalry to head the hit being above all very keen, and we firmly are of the opinion that the honor of being above their neighbor* is a greater incentive to the farmer* than the extra penny per Bllon. We endeavor to educate the rmers in the best methods, not only by periodic visit* to the farms, but also by sending any helpful pamphlets or books which are published. Some of the farmers are very keen and enthu siastic. and visit our dairy from time to time to consult our laboratory staff on any difficulty they have. "We find a few. farmer*, however who take no interest in producing dean milk, and have no desire to learn. In these cases, their names come regularly near the bottom of the mont hly Jut, and we always terminate our business with them at the end of the contract period, and take on fresh farmers. Thus, by a regular elimination of those supplying dirty milk, and the sys tematic training of the others, the cleanliness of our supply has vastly im- proved and reduced sour milk to minimum” Referring to states “In 1923 we bonus for the milk received. .... —......... ................. standard is 3 per cent., but a good aver age milk contains 33 per cent, of fat. I think most people will agree that a farmer supplying milk containing 4 per cent, of butter fat is entitled to a higher price than a farmer supplying milk containing 3 per cent.

We sell prac tically all the milk to the public as whole Bulk, and make no butter and very little cheese, so that extra pay ment* for butter fat appear to show us no advantage whatever, but we believe that if the milk we sell is thereby, we are building up will of our customer*, and maiely reap the reward.” the butter content, he commenced to pay a butter fat content oi The English butter fat During the discussion on this paper, it was brought up that where milk purchasing firm* paid a bonus for qual ity milk, it had a decided effect in im proving the quality, both from the standpoint and cleanliness and butter fat content.

So Mr. Aarons wm introduced to Miss Hamilton, and made quite a fa vorable impression on her until he be gan to talk of Africa. On that subject she found him not to compare with Mr. Tremaine. In vain she questioned him M to the voyage, the port*, and all the points that chiefly interested her; he put her questions aside with a declar ation that he “never could remember » names of places." and went into a rhapsody instead upon subjects which she would gladly have left undiscussed, and which—*he reflected—Mr. Tre maine had too much good taste to touch upon. What did she want to know about the beauty of the country and climate? She would have pre ferred that it should be a howling wil derness rather, that Herbert might Sink the more lovingly and longingly his own. And still more, why must she be regaled with stories of the na tive African women? Horrid negressc*. as she had supposed them to be, but who were transformed by Mr. Aaron*' glib tongue and powerful imagination into rival beauties of the most for midable description. One story was particularly^disagreeable—the stopr of a handsome young fellow—captain of the ship in which Mr. Aarons had made his second voyage—with whom the favorite daughter of the king had fal len desperately in love, and whom—she being a marvellously beautiful creature, dowered with a fabulou* fortune precious stones and native gold—he had married and taken with him to Europe.“He couldn’t bring her here," said Mr. Aarons, “because of our peculiar prejudices m to race and color ; but I do assure you she wa* one of the mo*t magnificently beautiful creature* I ever beheld, and created a furore at the Court of France. A* for her husband, he is a rich man in every sense, for her wealth is immense, and he adore* her. I saw a picture of Cleopatra once—a dusky, voluptuous beauty, with lips like a scarlet flower, and passionate eyes, and no clothing except leopard skin* and gleaming jewels, a half-barbanc, wholly splendid figure—it reminded me of my friend’s African wife when first we saw her. Ah. you don’t find such life, such natural. supple grace, such brilliant color except at the tropic*. It puts the pale, quiet, languid prettmess of the beauties of our northern clime* to shame I" ...Florence wa* neither languid nor pale a. he spoke. He was very rude she thought, and her check* flushed and her eye* sparkled .with anger as she half resolved to tell him *0. At that instant, however, her father spoke, and Mr. Aarons’ offense sank into in significance beside Mr. Hamilton’s. “It-would be well if such a wealthy beauty took a fancy to Bertie Care, said he, half laughingly. “What better luck could a poor man wish for? Bertie can’t marry his equal here, be cause he is too |-oor to support her properly, but he might bring hi* dark- skinned princess home and call her an Indian, or a Spaniard, if he cho*e, and if she was Only rich enough, no one would inquire too closely—I for one. a bride would be to diamond of the first will take her on hi* representation and welcome her here, and show him how to invest her diamonds to advantage. Poor Bert, such him an African water, indeed I" "Papa!" cried Florence, in such a tone that all eye* turned on her haitily. "Papa, for ihame! for shame T She had risen from her chair, and was standing before them, with beauti ful crimson cheeks and flashing eye*. Her lips trembled, her little white hand* were clenched, her whole form shook with indignation. “To speak of Bertie sol" »he panted, and the tear* rose to her eye*. "Of Helen’s brother! Of my dear companion and—and friend I Oh. for shame! for shame I" Mr. Hamilton looked rather startled and confused. “But. my dear.” he began apolcgeti- cally. "I only spoke of a princess. and a beauty—" "A savage!" the girl broke in. pas- sionately—"a fierce, untutored, dis gusting savage, all the samel Do you think Bertie would admire such a crea ture? I know him better!" "Men quite M good have admired them, my dear," said her father. “And beside*, the true feminine nature is often very strong in these wild beau ties. and love will tame them down. There have been instances—" “Look at Pocahonta*. for example!" Mr. Aaron* broke in eagerly. "What wa* she but a savage? And yet *0 gentle, beautiful, naturally refined that she became a favorite at the English Court. That’s an indisputable and his torical fact. I think, anyway r Mr. Tremaine had kept silence through it al), watching Florence nar rowly^- Now he broke in upon his friend’s remarks with telling effect. "Aaron*, pray cease." he said, earn estly, and with an air of annoyance. Such silly jest* cease to be amusing when they cause annoyance to a lady; and Pocahontas is not a case in point, because, however charming and gentle a savage she may have been. Rolfe was, of course, a man with a heart and fancy free, or he could not have loved her. Why should you assume this to be Captain Clare’s cgse? He left be hind him fairer beauty and more win- a charms than any man will ever in Africa." A low, respectful bow, and admiring glance at Florence, gave point and expression to the word*, and *he returned them with a look of gratitude. The subtle flattery wm sweet to her vexed, sore heart, and fell like healing balm upon its wound. She smiled brightly and softly on her lover's defender."Thank you. Mr. Tremaine." she said, "not only on Captain Claire** behalf, but in the name of all the civilized ladies he ha* left behind him. Mr. Aarons."—with a glance of contemp tuous dislike at that unmoved offender —"Mr. Aarons doesn’t seem to appre ciate civilization. Perhaps it is because he ha* been out of it—and in Africa— to much, that he has well night forgot ten what it meahsl” This turned a laugh against Mr. Aarons, who was not disconcerted by it in'the least. "AI1 right—laugh away," said he. stolidly. “All I ask is, that if you, Miss Hamilton, have never seen'the picture pf Cleopatra that 1 allude to. you’ll just look at it the first chance you get. and then say if any mortal man—far from home ties, and in a foreign land—could possibly resist that creature when she makes love to him? And they will make love! Poor, untutored, innocent children of nature, they know no dif ferently than to show their hearts I Just look at the picture. Miss Hamil ton, and judge for yourself I" But Florric had seen the painting he spoke of long ago. and it had arisen— in all its glowing brilliance of color, and voluptuous perfection of form—be fore her mind's eye—like an unwelcome vision, while he spoke. She would not acknowledge this, however, but turned away from him with an indifferent air, and laughed and chatted graciously with Mr. Tremaine, who confided to her, in a low voice, his deep regret that the friend whom he had introduced solely with the hope and intention of giving her pleasure, had contrived to make himself peculiarly disagreeable to her instead. “I have heard him tell such yams be fore." said he. "But 1 never thought he would introduce them here. How will you ever forgive me?" “It was not your fault." said Miss Hamilton, and pitied his evident con fusion and regret. “But he is not a very nice person, I think, and I am sure you know a great deal more than he does about Africa I" CHAPTER XL The Seeds of Jealousy, spite of her pride and contempt.In spite of her pride and contempt, howevcj, the word* had left their »ting. and the memory of the pictured Cleo patra haunted her. Its passionate, melting eye* followed her into the land of dreams, assuming a threatening look that terrified her. Before sleep came, and while she lay awake and restless the lithe and graceful, half clad form arose, like a living, breathing figure, before her bu*y brain, and glowed, warm and lovely, in the darkness of the room. She recalled every detail of the perfect form, every tint of the dusky, rosy flesh, every charm with which an artist's fancy had endowed his fair ideal. And then—by a similar effort of imagination—she conjured up the re membrance of her own fair face and figure, a* she had looked when he saw her last, pale and tearful at bidding him farewell. She seemed to see these two women—*0 wholly different—standing side by tide; the pale, modest, civilized maiden; and the splendid barbarian— and suddenly, as she compared the two, jeqlouty entered into her heart, and she turned and hid her face upon her pil low with a stifled cry of agony. “She is more beautiful T the tobbed. as if thi* imaginary barbaric beauty had really been living and rivaling her. “I am not beautiful at all beside her; there is no more room for comparison between u* than there is between a daisy and a rose I Oh. Heaven I Why did he go to that faraway land? I love him; and that beautiful savage woman will take him from me I" And the wept a* if her heart would break, for jealousy of the lovely African Venus, who never had existed and never w-ould exist, except in the fertile imagination of Mr. Tremaine, and on the lips of hi* obedient tool and partner."Shell dream of Cleopatra tonight.” Tremaine had »aid. laughingly, a* the two conspirator* walked home to gether" You are a useful ally. Aarons; the ide* of Cleopatra and the refer ence of Pocahontas were first rate. I had no idea you could do so well. Shell drcam of Cleopatra, or some ojher splendid barbarian, to-night, inevit ably." And she did; a wild, strange dream tormented heart and brain, and robbed her sleep of all restful qualities, so that the morning found her nervous and un refreshed. When she awoke, and lifted a heavy head from the pillow, the nightmare of her dreams still held her in such thrall that she could not. at first, separate the vision from the re ality. "Where am I?" she breathed, looking nervously around her. “Was that true? Ah, no; thank Heaven, it was but a dream I" And she sank back upon her pillow once more, with sighs and tears of nervousness and thankful ness. She had dreamed, all night long, that she wm following her lover’s ship over the sea. herself, being in a tiny boat that was in danger of being swamped by every wave. Some terrible danger was behind her—from which she was flying, but which she did not compre hend—and far away over the waves rode Bertie's ship, too far off to sight the frail barauc that followed it. Her every hope In life, she thought, de pended on her reaching him. and yet she could not get near enough to at tract his attention: for. if ever the winds and waves took pity on her and wafted her his way. straight there arose, out of the sea, the beautiful bar baric figure of a woman, who floated like a mermaid on the dancing waves and seizing the frail boat with jeweled fingers, pushed it back again. And all the while the woman sang mockingly— "He is mine I He is mine I He is not for you, but for me I" And when Florence, in despair, called aloud to Bertie, the sound of the singing drown ed her voice, so that she could not hear. And thus he sailed, she hope lessly and wearily pursuing, until they came to a strange, wild, beautiful coast, which she seemed to know wm Africa. And here she—still tossing out at sea in a tiny boat—saw him land and saw the beautiful barbarian welcome him, and clasp him to her exquisite, dusky arms: and she, torn with jealous anguish at the sight, uttered a cry. so wild and so despairing, that he heard it at last, and turned, and saw her there, and made as if he would have sprung to welcome and receive her. But the woman held him back, and dashing into the waves, swam to the boat, and seized Florence fiercely. And when she—struggling passionately for life and love—gazed into her strange assailant's face, lol it was no A turn of tho dial and you havo tho The new Lady Betty Range cooks automatically! leave it.

What wonder that she arose nervous and very pale, or that her first clear thought* turned, with jealous fear, toward her absenl lover, and with bitter dislike toward Mr. Aarons.“I have to thank that hateful man for a night of agony!" she thought ’Why did he tell me about these beau tiful. horrible women? I did not want to know!

Florence sighed heavily. “I have had drcams." she said, with shudder, “bad drcams—of Africa." Then suddenly her pallid color changed. An angry light shone in her soft, dark eye*, and her cheeks crim soned vividly. Polly, standing bchint her, dressing her hair, noted all this in the glass. “Mr. Tremaine brought a friend here last night." she said, “a—a person who has traveled—oh! I don’t know how many time* to Africa. He seems to like that part of the world very much I wonder"—with a little gentle spite— "that he didn't stay there. I almost wish he had. for he i» not very agree able. He say* the women out there are beautiful, Polly; oh. the moit beautiful and brilliant creatures in the world!" Polly gave a quick glance at the fair flushed face the mirror showed. “If he said that to you. he mu*t be a very rude fellow," she said, "and a too into the bargain I I don't believe it anyway.

"Yes." said Florence, absently, for she wa* going over the story of Poca hontas in her mind. “Yes, Mr. Tre maine's friend." looked healthy and fresh a* a child; in fact, her body seemed, in some mysterious manner, to reflect the character of her mind. She wa* care less at a child at play, and ‘he merci ful forgetfulness of the pa*t, for the continuance of which Ned Searle had hoped and prayed, had deepened into absolute oblivion. Her brother, her nurse, her bird-- the changing scenes, and dancing sea* around her—these occupied alj her thought*. Even the memory of home, and old, girlish affection*, faded m the happy day* went by. • The question of who »he was, and what wa* her relationship to the cap tain. was more of a mystery to crew than ever, guarded from all beyond a kindly ant word.

Wonderful fish, curious shells, all sort* of sea-marvel* were obtained by her. and afforded her a perfectly childish delight. Her little cabin was like a miniature museum, after awhile, with the gorgeous- plum ed. savage-tempered macaw instaBed as the chief and sovereign attraction. Thi* bird—which wa* tamed to the most perfect docility toward Helen herself, wa* really a most unamiablc and ill-natured creature, ths delight of it* poor mistress* heart, but terror to Bertie and Dr. Searle, and regarded as a sort of feathered demon to all the crew. It was a worse thief than ever was jackdaw or raven, and with it* powerful beak and strong daws could defend, to the la»t gasp, its unlawful spoils. Il wm no uncommon thing for it to swoop down upon'the men while they were at me**, and rob them of the choicest morsel* of their hard fare —then, flying to the rigging, tcream shrill defiance to them below, as they pursued it with curses and threat*. Yet at Helen's call it would forget it* fierc est moods, and come and perch upon her shoulder, while she. with gentle, simple word* and smiles, would apolo gize for her pet’* ill behavior to the men. who—though ready enough to wring the tormentcr’s neck on their own account—willingly forgave its sin* for her*. “Maybe it’ make* up to her for the dead baby." one of the sailor* had suggested on one of these occasion*. "Lads, she don’t never speak of it, Sue says, and like enough the captain has forbid her to; but don’t you believe that she don’t grieve for it at heart. Women never forget their babies, if they’ve loved them at all, and you can see thi* one is one o' the loving one*.

Quite unconscious of his own neglect toward Florence, he wa* hoping to find a let ter from her here in answer to hi* own.The disappointment of hi* hope was a cruel one.

No letter for him I Five months, away from home, and yet no letter—what could he think? “They will estrange her from me." he thought, and a sudden nervous terror filled hi* heart. "They couldn't do it if I were there. They can't do it by fair mean*, but they may by foul. Oh. my love! I shall lose her!" The thought robbed him of courage and strength. He had been *0 sure of her love—*0 umuspiciou* of her father’s treachery—to find himself in danger of losing the one through the other, stunned him. He sat down in the office where he had hoped for her letter, and found disappointment in stead. and tried to collect his senses. "What shall I do?” he muttered. -What can I -do’’’ Write again.

Be that as it may. when he saw the captain, looking worried and anxiou*. come hurriedly aboard again and beckon to himself, a certain forebod ing of evil seemed to strike him. The first idea was that Bertie must know the letter had been mailed, and— though he knew no reason why it should not be so—a guilty feeling of having done wrong oppressed him un comfortably. His recent misgivings ripened into a distinct wish that-lie had not written the letter, and he stifled a muttered curse against Bob Jones—the seaman who had taken the missive ashore—for having let the captain see him mail it. He came forward, however, respect fully. in answer to Bertie's signal “My man." said Bertie, “come aside a little. I want to speak to yoo—your boat shall wait." The tone was pleasant and kind, though anxious. Something in it sent an instant conviction to Jem’s mind "H it's my letter that the row's about, I don’t believe he knows it's posted." But he said nothing, being in too uneasy a frame of mind to be liberal of words, and waited for what was next to come. "You wrote a letter." began Bertie, hurriedly "last time we anchored, to your sweetheart—a pretty girl, whom I remember well—in Mr. Hamilton's care. Would you mind telling me if you have posted it?" So it was about the letter, then! Jem silently registered a curse against his own haste. He liked the captain, and had no wish to do him an ill turn. But it that, if . _ b remedy the mischief by owning up to it. With him secretiveness was the rule; candor and outspoken confid ence was the exception. The captain's question was put in such a form that it was possible for him to juggle with it. and he did so instinctively. It could not be said that he had mailed the letter. “I ain't been ashore yet, captain," he said; "I ain’t had no chance of posting never once occurred to him he had done so, he might Bertie gave a sigh of relief. “That's true,” said he. “That is just what 1 thought and hoped. For—it is not a matter over which 1 have any control, of course, but I mean to ask it as a favor—for I want you not to send that letter." (To t»e continued) D. A.
