“Fresh from the Gardens” To Stimulate Objective Thinking
The topsy-turvy condition in which the world finds itself to-day, nat-| urally leads to serious thought on the part of everyone. Why should there be so much penury and want in the midst of a surplus of commodities. | What are the real causes of stagnation of trade the world over. One hears. that the capitalistic system is doomed, and out of the present chaotic con- | ditions a new order is bound to h established. Many theories are being continually advanced, designed to produce a new Utopia. The history of | the world establishes the fact that all reforms necessarily come slowly. |
r There can be no rapid realization of many obviously netded changes in our | social system. But the world dots not stand still, a forward and not al backward movement is inevitable. The encouragement and not the sup- | pression of constructive thinking and expression of thought would be of material assistance. In the annual address of Principal Fyfe of Queen's University, reference was made to the stimulation of thought by means of discussions in the class rooms. He is reported in part as follows: |
“In our academic seclusion we sometimes catch from a busier world the echoes of an accusation that the Universities of Canada are becoming ‘nurseries of anarchy and revolution’. So far as such charges have any | basis except hysteria, they may serve to encourage us, for they seem to indi- | cate that students are in some measure acquiring the art of looking at both | sides of disputed questions, an art in which it is our duty to encourage them. | The ideal of suppressing enquiry and free speech, which has for the moment established a tragic dominance in many parts of the world, is nowhere more | absurd than in a University, where men and women gather to exercise their, faculties of curiosity and logic. Those faculties in them are necessarily im- | mature; their utterances are often crudely dogmatic. But to stifle thought and utterance would be in a University the tt treason. As Penn said, ‘Whoever is right, the persecutor must be wrong’.
“If we are to stimulate in our pupils objective thinking, we must be | equally free in speech and thought ourselves—hut not equally rash, Propa-_| ganda is no part of a teacher’s proper function. He is not concerned to produce opinion, a temporary state of conviction which can be quickly changed by counter-propaganda. His aim is to stimulate the growth of in- telligence, the power of detached judgment. To that end he may exercise in the class-room every art of sophistry, but if he blinks his way into the outer world, where opinions clash unanchored both from fact and reason, it behoves him to remember what astonishing weight that world attaches to a professorial pronouncement. The dignity of the University stalks beside him on the platform, sternly demanding judicial sobriety. A University | teacher should certainly be clever; he needs to be wise; and of the factors | of wisdom not the least are self-restraint and kindliness and patience.”

Gold Potiring Into London ST Great Increase In Foreign Deposits Of Precious Metal
The gloden tide, unexampled in the history of the world’s monetary movements, continucs to pour into London.
It began a year ago with a gold influx at the rate of $25,000,000 weekly, then it increased early this year to $62,000,000 weekly, and now it averages 45 millions weekly and shows no indication of declining. As soon as gold arrivés in England from South Africa, Canada and other pro- ducing countries, it is bought by

can buyérs, nérvous about the finan- cial “state of affairs in their own countries, and stored away uselessly in the vaults of London banks, where they know it cannot be touched. Al- ready in the square mile that con-
| stitutes the city of London more pre-
cious metal has accumulated than ever King Solomon's legendary mines contained. The latest figures, cover- ing a period of nine months, show gold importations valued at $1,000,- 200,000. Exports reached less than $500,000,000. Altogether, at the moment one billion and a quarter of fqyeign gold is stored in the city banks—a figure which exceeds any previous records in peace time. Bankers do not~want this gold; they cannot use it either to provide credits for industry or work for Bri- tain’s unemployed. Moreover, any fresh financial upheaval in Europe might cause its flight from London, | with disastrous effects on sterling’s | international stability. Its useless- ness is further “emphasized by the fact that, although London's vaults are bursting with it, the official gov- ernment figures reveal that the Bri- tish people's purchasing power in the way of wages and salaries has been decreased through an economy cam- paign by $310,000,000 since the gold crisis of 1931.

To Salvage Treasure
Nineteen Galleons Sunk In 1702 To Be Searched For Gold —
The 19 galleons of the Franco- Spanish fleet sunk in the Bay of Vigo in Septembér, 1702, by the combined British and Dutch fleets under Sir George Rooke and the Duke of Ormonde, will be searched for gold this summer, the Madrid newspaper El Debate reported.
Several previous attempts to sal- vage the treasure brought by the fleet from the West Indies were fruitless.
Glass Is Latest Vogue

The principal European countries, notably France, Italy, and Germany; have stringently controlled the im- ports of dairy, products during the past few years by tariffs, quotas, and other means. This has resulted in a steady increase "in the quantities of butter and cheese exported to the United Kingdom.

Since June, 1933, there has been in- creased activity in most shipyards and compared with the report on| March 31, it is still on the upgrade, though the augment of new tonnage was only 1 per cent.
Great Britain and Ireland, which are taken together, still lead the way. The only notable gain over the last quarter was that shown in their re- ports. They are building five of the| ships of 20,000 tons or more, the sixth being under construction gl | France. .Two of the large British | ships were started last quarter.
“The British yards are now. build- ing 48.3 per cent. of all merchant tonnage, namely, 587,142 tons out of the 1,216,340 under construction. The British increase was 105,702 tons over last quarter. To appreciate Bri- tain’s position we have only to com- pare it with Japan’s, which is next in line. Japan's total tonnage on June 30 was 137,280, less than a fourth of Britain's total, and Japan's increase was 14,000 tons, less than a seventh Britain's increase.

The United States moved up from tenth to ninth place, though its in- crease was only 247 tons. It is evi- dent that British merchant shipping is maintaining its rule of the sea.
A Million In Time
World War Lasted About Two . Million Minutes
A way of realizing the meaning of a million is to think of what it means in time. Few people realize that there are less than a million days in the whole Christian Era; in fact, if we count back a million days from 1933, we come to a date well before the founding of Rome, while a million hours would take us back to the Bat- tle of Trafalgar. The-Great War last- ed about two million minutes, and, taking the total casualties as ten mil- lions, this gives an average of five casualties per minute throughout the period of hostilities.
“The movement of sheep and lambs in Canada from farms to livestock yards and packers showed a sub- stantial increase during 1933 and was well above the five-year average, 1929-1933. .
Logging camps and other woods operations form an important outlet for Canadian canned and dried fruits.

Secret Method Revealed How Scotland Yard Determines Age Of Finger Prints
Scotland Yard's secret method of telling the age of finger prints was revealed in Sessions Court in Lon- don during the trial recently of John Cc. O'Connor, charged with breaking into the Lady Margaret Day Nurs- ery. Evidence against him was a thumb-print found on a clock, but O’Connor said he had only handled the timepiece in 1932. Detective- Sergeant Jack Livings, of New Scot- land Yard, said he had no doubt the fingerprint was that of O’Connor. He added: ‘The powder we apply to Tatent impressions to bring them out will stick to the ridges of a new print, but an old one is dry and the powder will not adhere to it. A fresh print can easily be removed by a duster, but a stale one can only be removed by a damp cloth.”

Always Good Neighbors
Canada And United States Like To Exchange Courtesies
That was a friendly and fine ges- ture when the Americans brought back the mace which they took away from the old Upper Canada parlia- ment back in 1812. To many, it may seem a little thing, yet it is just the sort of little thing that makes for friendliness and good feeling between two countries, It is the sort of thing, indeed, which; occurring every now and then, has made Canada and the United States almost model neigh- bors.—Ottawa Journal. :

Idea Is Not | Wholly Fantastic
Transportation By Rocket Not Looked On As Impossible
About one year ago the public was entertained by reports of a German device by which the, inventor was to be shot through the air in a sort of cylinder fited on the principle of a rocket. Some experiments were made, and the last we read about it the machine had been hopelessly damaged owing to téo much explo- sive used in firing the apparatus, and the inventor was badly injured:
But the idea is not wholly fantas- tic. Another German; Gerhard Zucker, received permission recently from the British Post Office to try sending mail by rocket, and the gov- ernment actually marked the at- tempt by issuing a special stamp for the occasion. It wasn’t exactly a success. Mail was shut in the rocket, which was fired into the air at a point near Rottingdean on the Eng- lish Channel, and it came down about one mile away. After that the letters were removed and mailed in the ordinary Way. But what the in- ventor has in mind is a rocket that will shoot into the air at a speed of about 500 miles an hour, come’ down at previously selected sorting sta- tions by means of an automatic para- chute device, and thus travel in a minute or so to places within a reas- onable radius.
This does not appear to be an im- practicable idea at all. Things are being dene to-day that would have seemed grotesque ten or fifteen years ago. Who would have imagined, at the end of the World War for in- stance, that men would seal them- selves in steel balls.and with a ton of scientific instruments penetrate twelve
or thirteen miles straight up into the)
sky, take scientific observations and come down again in a few hours? Or that zeppelins would carry regu- lar loads of fifty passengers and tons of freight between Europe and Brazil? Or that women would pilot Planes between Europe and _ the United States, or that night express planes would run on regular sched- ules across the United States, carry- ing stewardesses just like ships and have sleeping berths on them with beds larger than those in Pullman cars? All these things have taken place.
Possibly after the rocket mail has been perfected, human beings will be rocketed the same way, dropping off at their destinations by means of automatic parachutes.—St. Thomas Times-Journal.
‘A Profitable
Book Fakers Soak Paper In Tea To Give It Old Tinge
Faking old books, paintings and furniture, to hoodwink antique col- lector and bibliophiles, has become a large and profitable “industry”. There are, in various parts of the world, secretly operated “factories”
. Where cleverly forged modern “an-
tiques” are turned out, and sold at extortionate prices to trusting collec- tors. The most common trick of book fakers is the soaking of the pages in tea—and sometimes coffee— to give the paper the yellowish tinge that comes with the passing of cen- turies.
A clever workman who knows just how strong to make the tea, and just how long to keep the paper in the beverage, can closely gpproximate the appearance of great age. Another ingenious trick of the modern mak- ers of antique volumes is to print Bibles and other books on old paper. To make such spurious volumes con- vincingly aged in appearance, the plates from which they are printed usually are made from photostatic copies of the original pages of the literary work being imitated, Ex- pert bibliophiles have ways however, of spotting such counterfeits,

William Creamer was able to re- member selling to Mrs. Abraham Lincoln 30 yards of silk to be made up into a dress for White House wear. He sold dresses (of the cheap- est obtainable cotton cloth)«to the three Misses Wendel when they were “bright, cheerful girls,” and he had waited on Mrs. William Astor and Ward McAllister. He was already well along in years when he helped to drape the portly beauty of Lillian Russell in suitable garments, and he lived to see Mrs. Franklin D? Roosevelt buy her dress for the in- auguration.
In the blizzard of 1888, Mr. Creamer was the only one of the whole staff of Arnold Constable to get to the office, where he sat all day awaiting for non-existent cus- tomers. Among his other memories were a great sale of Paisley sha at reduced prices, when the store took in $250,000 in a day and the sales force were almost torn to pieces by embattled female bargain hunt- ers; the hundredth anniversary of the store, when his long service was

From it every other palm in Brazil has sprung. It was decreed at the time that every seed from the palm should be carefully saved, and after the avenue was com- pleted the remainder of the seeds should be burnt, in order to conserve the monopoly of the Royal Palm. Slaves, howéver, who then worked in the gardens, stole large numbers of the seeds and sold them, and conse- quently the palm was thus propagat- ed throughout Brazil.
An Unusual Rock Garden Built Of Dinosaur Bones By Man In Red Deer, Alberta A rock garden and fish pond has been built by Tom Stanway, elec- trician, of Red Deer, Alberta, out of petrified dinosaur bones from the Red Deer River Badlands, weird chunks of petrified wood from the Saskatche- wan river, ‘sponge rock” from the cave and basin at Banff, and odd

He has spent three summers mak- ing the collection, and has travelled from Field to the Saskatchewan bor- der, from the Waterton Lakes to Battle Lake.

Articles of clothing and other ma- terials subject to attack should not be left undisturbed for long periods, particularly during the summer months, in such place as cupboards, attics, trunks, etc., unless adequate precautions have been taken to pro- tect them from moth injury. Such articles, after having been thorough- ly brushed and beaten, preferably ir strong sunlight, should be placed in well-made trunks or chests with tightly fitting lids, or enclosed in cotton or paper bags or in card- board boxes sealed with paper strips. Wrapping clothing in two thicknesses of strong wrapping paper, taking care that the edges are turned so that no moths may gain entrance is also retommended as an alternative measure.

tor’s Idea A Good One
The following article appeared in System and Business Managenient:
“Some time ago A. R. Schinzel, Toledo business man, received a col- lection letter from his doctor. He thought it so effective that he adopt- ed the same idea in handling his own collections, and it has worked well.
The physician Mr. Schinzel em- ployed had but recently come to town and through an oversight failed to receive payment of his bill, which had been rendered promptly on the first of the month. About the twentieth of the month, Mr. Schinzel received a note from him:
Dear Mr. Schinzel:—In order to encourage my collector, I have placed some perfectly good bills among the | doubtful ones I sent him out on. Knowing your familiarity with busti- ness and that you will appreciate the fact that I must give some en- couragement to a collector in order to keep him going, I have taken the liberty of putting your statement with the others which he is author- ized to collect. ;
If you will show the gentleman some consideration when he calls, it} will be a great favor and one that) T shall appreciate very much.
Bearing in mind that some of his customers are prone to grow angry
Schinzel telephoned the doctor at once and obtained his permission to use this disarming argument which, in sending out a dun, replaces the
of conciliation.”
Some People Always Young
Growing Mentally
The minute a man ceases to grow no matter what his years, that min- ute he begins to be old. Many men are old fogies at 25. They are satis- fied with their jobs, having accumu- lated a little stock of prejudices that they call principles and have closed their minds to all new ideas, But as long as &@ man can keep himself still growing, still knowing that he has a lot to learn, he is young. Laplace, ‘the astronomer, at 78, died while at work, saying: “What we know is nothing, what we do not know is im- mense.” Goethe died at 83, after completing his Faust. Gladstone was studying new languages at 70. Bis- marck did his greatest work after 70; Titiam the painter lived to be 90, painting right up to his death. Ac- cording to the life span of other mammals, man’s period of life should be five times his: period of growth. A dog gets his growth in two years and lives ten; a horse in five years and lives 25, On this basis man should live to be one hundred. But in Shakespeare's time a man was old at forty. Sir Walter Scott com- plained at 55 of being an old man, Montague retired at 38 to spend his declining years in peace, and Dr. Samuel Johnson once said that at 35 man reached his peak and was there- after on the down grade. The art of keeping young seems to lie with the individual himself. The constant seeker may die, but he never grows old,

Mixtures, Chocolates, And Restaurants
In view of the increasing favour of Canadian honey in the markets of the world, particularly in Great Bri- tain, it is interesting to remember that the demand for honey is not confined to private consumption but extends to various manufacturing trades, such as confectioners, bakers, chemists, and the catering trade Valuable information in this respect has been assembled by the late Em- pire Marketing Board which pointa out that the two most used pharma- ceutical preparations containing honey are oxymel of squill; an im- portant constituent of many cough mixtures, and honey borax The honey in both these preparations in Empire countries conforms to the specifications of the British Pharma- copoeia, and’is known as “purified honey". Honey is also widely used in the manufacture of proprietary cough cures, balsams and lung tonics. In addition to the employment of honey in medicinal preparations, ore British chemist stated that a small quantity was used by him in the preparation of toothpaste. Of 16 lead- ing manufacturing chemists in the United Kingdom, ten are using honey in quantities ranging from half a ton up to 100 tons per year, Canadian honey, of course, showing its due proportion among the world imports.
In the confectionary trade, the pro- ducts in which honey most commonly occurs are chocolate and nougat, but it is also employed in the manufac- ture of toffee, maripan goods, Turk- ish delight, caramels, crystallized gums, creams, and pastilles. In chocolates, honey is chiefly used to form centres. In sugar confection- ary, it is mainly used as flavouring, though it is also said to impart a certain richness to the texture of the various candies. Bakers and biscuit makers use honey to a limited extent in making cakes, biscuits, rusks, and gingerbread, mainly as a flavouring. Dark honey is used for colouring certain kinds of biscuit, while honey is said to have a pre- servative effect in cakes and ginger- bread, maintaining in the product a palatable moisture. During the last few years, in British and European restaurants honey has been increas- ingly included in the menus, being served in midget ‘containers or some- times loose in portions, Restaurants which maintain a counter trade, find that their sale of honey over the counter is stimulated by the serving of honey at meals. Last year 2,213,- 999 pounds of Canadian honey was exported to the British market.
To Exterminate Mosquitoes
Pests Would Be Fewer If Stagnant Pools Drained
There are not 8o many mosquitoes in towns and cities as usual this year. They have not been nearly so trouble- some this summer to sitters out around city homes or in open spaces. This is a bad year for these. pests. Or ‘rather the mosquitoes are scarce, not numerous. The explanation is that during the excessively hot weather in May and much of June, when the drouth was beyond reason, most of the little ponds and pools of water dried up. These are the mos- quitoes’ breeding places, and so, hav- ing no stagnant pools available bil- lions and billions of these pestiferous disease-carrying insects did not hatch out, And, of course, as has so often been said, if stagnant. pools were drained or the waters oiled, the buzz- ing insects would grow less. They would have fewer breeding places. That is why these pests are less troublesome in well-farmed and well- drained areas than in swampy coun-
try.

‘The death curve was found in a spectroscopic examination of human and animal blood. Spectroscopic curves are like city skylines such as New York and London, which reveal wide itectural differences, which never would be mistaken for each other, and which an expert would never forget.
“The curves,” M. de Nouy’s report states, “show remarkable constancy, whether man, horse or sheep serum is used.
“Alterations in the curves must correspond to very deep chemical modifications affecting the chro- mophoric (color) elements which be- long to very stable chemical groups.

Little Journeys In Science
WATER (By Gordon H. Guest, M.A.)
Water is the most familiar of all chemical compounds. It covers about three-fourths of the earth's surface, the greatest depth of the ocean being about six miles. It is an important component of the air, and even “dry” land contains considerable quantities of water. It constitutes about 62% of beef, 87% of milk, 92% of water- melons, and 95% of cucumbers. Thus, when we buy normal! milk we pay for about 87% water. t
Living things, both plants and animals, cannot exist without it. Enormous -shipping, fishing, and other industries result from the fact that three quarters of the earth's surface consists of sea water, and in addition, there is a great volume of fresh river and lake water so neces- sary to human beings and otker crea- tures not inhabiting the sea.
Steam power is derived from water, and other mechanical power is obtained from falling water, as “at Niagara where electricity is gener- ated on & very large scale.
Pure water is odorless and taste- less. In thin layers it has no color that can be detected, but it has a bluish tint.when observed through considerable thickness. When suffi- ciently cooled ,it solidifies to a color- less solid commonly known as ice. When heated it boils and changes rapidly into water vapor, commonly called steam.
There is a general law o1 nature that substances expani when heated and contract when cooled. Fortun- ately for man and other living crea- tures water does not always follow this law. When. warm water is cool- ed it contracts according to the law of expansion and contraction, until it reaches four degrees centigrade. For some reason which scientists cannot explain, from four degrees down as far as you wish to go water expands instead of contracting. Now, if it ex- pands it will be lighter than it was above four degrees, and hence the cold water will rise to the surface. When the temperature drops to zero ice forms at the surface first, and then layer after layer is formed from the surface down as the tem- perature remains below zero.
All would be different if water fol- lowed the law of expansion and con- traction rigidly. The water would become heavier as the temperature approached zero and this heavy cold water would drop to the bottom of lake or river, Ice would form first at the bottom and as the winter pro- gressed the lake would freeze from the bottom up, until it was converted in- to a solid mass of ice. All water animals would be destroyed and the warmth of summer would not be sufficient to thaw it out.
At noon, the temperature of the moon is hotter than boiling water, but it falls to several hundred de-

SYNOPSIS
Camilla Hoyt and Peter Anson, young and in love, marry secretly, deciding to live théir own lives apart until Peter is able to provide for her. Peter is a young, struggling sculptor trying to win a competition for a scholarship abroad and Camilla is the adopted daughter of a wealthy fam- ily. She is not to inherit money
when she comes of age and so is)
studying commercial art in the hope
of landing an agency job. Others in|
the story are Avis Werth, another ‘wealthy girl who is trying to win Peter, Sylvia Todd, Peter’s model,
and Gus Matson, his former room-|
mate with whom he has quarrelled.
After a party at an exclusive club, |
when the rest of the members of the party go to a cabaret to continue the gaiety, Peter and Camilla slip off to the beach by themselves and fall asleep on the sand. When they awake it is early morning and Avis and another boy are standing near them. This makes it necessary for Camilla to announce before the party that
she and-Peter are married. Camilla urges Peter to accept some of her, earnings to help him along, but Peter refuses and they quarrel. After)
Camilla has gone from the studio, Avis Werth calls and persuades Peter to aceept a loan of $1,000. Peter fin-
ishe: his exhibit and asks Avis and
Camilla for suggestions as to a name for. it. Camilla gests Youth,” and Avis “Inspiration”. Peter adopts. the latter title and
Camilla, heartsick, goes to Peter's studio for quiet and to think. Peter
and Avis follow later, and as the lights are turned on, see the statue has been shattered to pieces. Avis accuses Camilla of doing this, and Camilla, stunned by the disaster, and hurt and horrified by the accusation, faints,
At Camilla’s suggestion, Peter en- ters as his exhibit a statue he had sculptured especially for her as a wedding gift. They named it'“Land of Hope”.
, Camilla’s advertising campaign was @ success from the beginning, and it was arranged to have radio broad- casts, in addition to newspaper ad- _vertising, Camilla to both write the Tiny Tots stories and to deliver them over the radio.

(Now Go On With The Story)
CHAPTER LV.
Camilla powdered her nose and drew her hat over her head at a pert angle, but her movements were mechanical. She was . thinking neither about her nose nor the angle of her hat. Her hands trembled a little, with excitement and apprehen-
* sion. In another half hour, she would be speaking into the microphone to --thousands, perhaps. There also was a possibility that she would be speaking to no one, except. Peter. She laughed shakily at the thought. All that effort and anxiety and ex- pense, just to speak to Peter!
But she knew that would not be true. The response to her Tiny Tots had been too convincing of her pub- lic’s: interest, and the advertising of her radio programs too thorough to deny her an audience. She visioned that audience now, vaguely, reaching far out into limitless space, instead of her own chic figure in the dress- ing room mirror at the office. Her new autumn ensemble of transparent black velvet was set off by a smartly tailored white satin blouse, a white- trim purse and a perky white bow ‘on the snug black velvet hat perched jauntily on the back of her black curls.
She joined Mr. Bowman in the outer office, who was going’ with her to the studio to introduce her to that important client of the firm, Mr. Alexander Hoyt.
Even in her trepidation, she had

anticipated that formal meeting with the man whom she had known as “dad” all her life. It might not be quite fair of her to surprise him like this, but she thought she deserved the right to make of it an important event. The circumstances had war- ranted it, she believed,
Mr. Bowman's cgr was waiting at the curb to whisk them away with a, sense of importance. It had been a long time since Camilla had ridden behind a liveried chauffeur. She would never have supposed that last time, that the next event would be a mani- festation of her success in her be- loved work, and so soon.
Arrived at the towering building on the top of which was the broad- casting station, an elevator whisked them upward and deposited them in a large, handsomely appointed re- ception room where a girl at the switchboard announced them. The program manager, Mr, Ritchie, ap- peared presently and greeted Camilla with deferent graciousness.
“You must get acquainted around here and make yoursclf at home, if you are going to be one of our regu- lar visitors,” he told her pleasantly. “You will broadcast from studio A, so we'll go right in now. Mr. Hoyt has not yet arrived, but I expect him any minute.’
They passed through several rooms into a spacious, high-ceilinged room, soft-carpeted, heavy velvet hangings at the high arched windows. Two concert grand pianos made little im-
|pression in the room’s size, other
musical instruments stood about, in- cluding a little old-fashioned organ; a few chairs.
A half dozen microphones were suspended from the ceiling. Camilla had been there before, to try out her voice; at that she had been sur- prised that the “mikes” were not like those one saw erected before public speakers outside the studio. They were long, black tube-like cylinders with a small porous cir- cular pendant into which one spoke directly. She had learned then that papers rustled or slipped together caused “lightning” over the air, and

various other facts concerning , the marvel of radio broadcasting.
“They had just been seated when a studio attendant ushered in Mr. Hoyt. Even before he crossed the room to them, he recognized Camilla,
and his reserved smile of greeting was puzzled.
“Hello, Camilla. I didn’t expect to see you here. Did you come to watch the broadcasting?” ,
Mr. Ritchie looked from one to th other, as puzzled as was Alexander Hoyt.
“You know Mrs. Anson, Mr. Hoyt? She is here to do the broadcasting. She is your very capable advertising artist, the creator of the Tiny Tots.”
Camilla’s smile appealed to her foster father for all that she could not express in words: her forgive- ness for this secrecy and the impor- tance of her responsibility to his venture,
“Why—of course, I know Mrs. An- son—my Camilla—can it be pos- sible?” He was speechless, but that twinkle of pleasure that she remem- bered so well gleamed in his eyes before a suspicious mistinesas clouded them. He took her hand quietly. “My. heartiest congratulations, Camilla,” was all he said, but to Camilla it
was like an oration of commendation, knowing the man as she did.
There were a few moments of com- ment and explanation and then the room began to stir with other ar- rivals, people coming and going, or- chestra instruments being tuned, an atmosphere of waiting expectation. A huge clock on one side of the room, with a long, impatient second hand, measured off the passing time rapidly. é
Lights flashed on a signal board. Finally, double sound-proof doors were closed, eyeryone was in his place to avoid the least fractional second of delay. Camilla thrilled to this new experience of being a part of that vast organization of educa- tion and amusement that flooded the air all over the world from these perfectly regulated units.
A red light flashed above the letter A on the signal board, and the voice of the station announcer began his introduction to the Wheatheart Cereal program. The orchestra fol- lowed instantly with a gay selection. Mr. Ritchie introduced Mr, Hoyt briefly and he, in turn, presented Camilla. His audience and the occu- pants of that room could have been no more astonished than was Camilla
| herself when he said:
“Boys and girls, I am not only go- ing to introduce to you the creator of the Tiny Tots, but I am going to pass on to you a@ lovely surprise which I had just a few minutes ago when I met Miss Camilla Anson. You have not known who first thought of the Tiny Tots and neither have I, before this afternoon, Imagine my surprise to discover that it was my

assuringly and whispered, “Splen- did,” under cover of the music which followed.
Finally, then, it was over and Camilla passed through the opened doors, feeling as if she had been on a strange journey to another world. Mr. Hoyt took her arm affection- ately. , ;
“I can’t tell you how proud I am, Camilla, nor how much I appreciate what you have done for me. Your mother will be immensely pleased, too. Can’t you come out to dinner with us to-night? We haven't seen much of you these days.. And, no wonder,” he added with a shy twisted smile.
“Sorry, but I can’t to-night, dad. You know, Peter leaves day after to-morrow for New York to sail on the sixteenth, But I shall be seeing you more often when he is gone, I promise, I've been terribly busy and it doesn’t look like I am going to be less busy very soon. I do want to talk with you about—everything, and I'd like to have some co-operation on some of my ideas hereafter. It's

“You are wonderful,” he said simply, “and we are proud of Peter, also. So glad that he won the schol- arship, but I wonder what you are going to do without him.”
“Just work—and wait for him,” she laughed.
A boy interrupted them. “Tele- phone for Miss Anson, please. Over here, he directed,
Camilla wondered who could be calling her there, excused herself from the group.
“Dear, you were marvelous,”
Peter's voice replied to her hesitant, “Hello”.
“I called because I was afraid you would forget.”
“As if I could!” Camilla repri- Manded him fondly.

Proved By Experiments
€arth’s Motion Interferes With Laws Of Gravity
If you make a deep hole in the earth you can’t drop anything to the bottom, because the earth moves on and the side of the hole stops the falling object. This has been proved by experiments in the deep shafts of the American copper mines, Tools dropped from the mouth of a shaft were not found at the bottom but wedged against the side of the shaft, and this led the Michigan College of Mines to make, experiments. The object being to discover how far the earth’s motion interfered with the usual effect of the laws of gravity. The tests employed included suspend- ing marbles by threads just below the mouth of the shaft, the threads were.then burnt by the flame of a candle and the marbles allowed to fall. Investigations showed that after dropping some 500 feet the marbles in all cases came to rest on the east wall of the mine.

Annual pasture crops are import- ant in many parts of Canada. In the prairie provinces, perennial grasses and legumes cannot be de- pended upon to supply grazing dur- ing the periods of dry weather which occur almost every season. This is the case also, though not to the same extent, in Ontario and Que- bec. The most feasible method of overcoming this difficulty is to seed one of the grain crops to provide pas- turage when the perennial grasses are unproductive. The cereals used as annual pasture crops are oats, barley, wheat, and spring rye, oats being by far the most important for this purpose.—Scientific Agriculture.

Travels From Baghdad To Damascus In One Day
The largest motor coach in the
world has just been made and put on
the road. It is well over 70 feet
‘long, and has been designed for ser-
vice on the road from Baghdad to Damascus, which passes through the Syrian desert. Formerly the journey by road took about 24 dalys. The new coach, it is said, will reduce this. to as many hours. The vehicle, the motive force of which is a 885 horse- power Diesel engine, provides accom- modation for 38 passengers, and car- ries a crew of 10, It has two storeys, the sleeping bunks being “upstairs.”
