HOME FROM ltlORTH SEA
We have had many soldiers home
from the. front in France but few sailors.
home fro.pi that other front in theNortb.
Sea. For the past two weeks, however,.
we have had oneof these in the person'.
of Wilmer MacDonald who just two
yeas ago enlisted for service in the.
British Navy. He la not home for good
as some supposed he would be, but roust
_report at Halifax on August 18, unless.
he gets an extension of leave.
Wilmer has seen sowuethtng, .of the
world and of the naval side of , the.
Great Wain since be went, overseas. 'He
has had a variety of experiences on 'th%
sea, having been on mine sweepers, sib-
marine.chasers and for a time en one of
the big -battle -cruisers- which =.carry --1h
inch guns, and which keep the Kaiser's
ships Securely stored away behind land
defenses in the Kiel Canal,The British
sidera'don't get half enoughfighting to
please them, but occasionally there is a
running scrap with a raider attempting
to get out to sea, or with, a German des-
troyer which has ventured too far from
its, base. But there is no hard fighting
for the watchers of the North Sea. The
drubbing which Wilhelm's " fleet got in
the Jutland fight more than tw3 years
age put, an end to all that. •
MacDonald came to Canada on a'
cruiser which was one of a number 'con-
voying a fleetof transports returning•
from Europe, and on the way a typical'
incident of present-day'sea warfare oc-
curred. One morning a German' sub, -
marine -incautiously came above the sur-
face of the Ilea, the captain in hopes,no
doubt, of getting a chance shot at one
of the merchant ships. .Unluckily - for
Men and his pirate crew, he came up be-
tween tivo cruisers with every man, of
course, on the watch for just such an
event, . "It lasted just three minutes,"
is the way MacDonald described what
followed.. Both cruisers cut loose with
their six-inch' gune, and the Sub was
almost instactlyshot to pieces.

The young men in the vicinity of
Lucknow whc have spent: three months
or more at farm work are again remind-

carloads of heavy steers from .the

The Coal Question
-. Apparently -eine -erroneous idea` pree
veils as regards the Lucknow Coal Co.
and ;the distribution of coal in Lucknow
and vicinity. To •correct" this the fol-
lowingexplanation is offered: . At the
May meeting of the village council Mr.
E. N. Hodgins addressed the council as
to the coal situation stating that, in his
opinion, the only fair way to do in the.
coal business would be to give coal to
any person . who was en the ground
when. the coal came in and treat all
alike.. Mr. Murdie agreed with Mr.
Hodgins_ and asked to have the control
lifted. The other members ofthe
council took the opposite view: thatit
was their duty to follow the advice and
instructions set forth' by Mr, Magrath,
r'ueI Controller for Canada, viz: that
the..municipal councils in all towns and
villages take over the distribution of all
anthracite . coal so that ' ail may re-
ceive a reasonable supply of coal where
necessary and not -to place any coal
where wood is available. At the meet-
ing, above referred to Geo. I.t Smith.
was appointed fuel controller for the
municipality of Lucknow and all orders
must pass through his hands.
We trust that 'thieexplanation' will
clear matters and place the Lucknow
Coal Co in the proper light. ,It would
be much'easier and more profitable for
the Lucknow Coal Co. or anyother
toners to run their business without
want=on restrictions, • • .

Waste Paper As Fuel
Waste paper is being used as Inc! by
• sone -women who devise every way nos-
Bible to cut down their coal bill, They
take old newspapers, -wrapping paper
cardboard, or any other old waste paper
and tear it up into small piece and place
lnawater-tightreceptacle. Boillingwater
is then poured over it, and it is left -un-.
til the mass becomes soft, usually tak-
ing about twelve hours., This mass` is
then made into small balls about four
inches in diameter, which are set in the
sun to' dry, or may be dried in an oven,
=When thoroughly dry these balls 'are
ready for use. They catch . fire . quickly
and burn slowly and have been found .it
very satisfactory substitute for coal. '
