/‘Good hoy !” Slade approved. “Get

some green stuff into you, and some

“A month!” Dan repeated. “What
are you talking about? I’m finished

“Don’t do that,” he ! said angrily.

the sudden resolution, and’ the hasty
flight from Dandong?” /■■

Dan said,. “And .if I ever come back,
Slade, you can fry me slowly on the

“Flying to England?” Slade asked

tily. “That reminds me. Dp you think
that planes is safe? Snowy had better
give, it a thorough overhaul before
we pull, out of here. I don’t Want any-;
thing to happen now.”
“Safe!” Slade .repeated, staring at
Dan, open-mouthed. “Coming from
you, that* certainly caps the climax.
' Hey, Snowy! Dan Prescott wants to
know whether. your bus is safe.”
“And my bus wants to know, if
it’s safe to carry Dan Prescott,”
- shouted the pilot. “What’s the mat
ter with the boss now,? Touch of
.'sun, or something?”
“Heart. attack, J reckon,”. Slade
said. "Personal ind private heart
'attack, maybe.”
“Aw, shut, up.’ said Dan gruffly.
“And go over that bus, Snowy. I’m
not taking any risks.” •;
"But, seriously, Dan,)’ Slade said,
“What am I to do, if you walk out
on me now?”
“You walk out, too,” Dan advised.
“Listen,, Slade! You and I have been

Slade- pursed his. lips in a'prolong

‘Smart birds,” he coniriieiitcd,
* "The stock is good, honest value at
, par; but further than that I’d not
like to go.” ,
“Medlicott is your concern,” Dan
said. “B/it ,rm sort [of responsible
for Westerby. And 1 I’m off to
. England to look ' after him.” ,
•i “If, he hears that you aic coming
he’ll not wait,”'Slade said. “One
reunion with yon, Dan, is. quite en

. “He’ll wait,” Dan said. *And he’ll
do what I tell him. So long, Slade.

Visitors in House Gallery Also
Couldn’t Hear What Was /
Going on Below
OTTAWA, — Forty little girls/aged
10 and 11, seated sedately in rows tn
the visitors’ gallery, absorbed, what
they, could hear of the speeches in the'
House of Commons as ■ part of their
education. Afterwards, in a bay win
dowed reccss of a parliamentary cor
ridor, they were questioned by their
teacher, Miss Margaret McLean.
The girls , have been studying "ci
vics” all year and after thl3 trip to
give them a general idea of how the
laws are made by men whose pictures
they iiad seen in the papers, .they
were keen, to show their knowledge.
Did they know who was the Prime
Minister? A dozen hands went up,
"Mr King" [The gentlemen cluster
ed around Mr. King were the Liber
als. Who were those closest to Mr.
King? A hand or two went up. They
were the Cabinet ministers.
What .were the gentlemen doing?
One solitary band went up. "They are
making rules. for Ottaw^.” No, that
was not quite right, saitk Miss Me
lon n, they'were ndt making rules for
Ottawa, but Canada, nine provinces
and one territory. And what did they
do 'this, afternoon? There was a gen
eral silence, then an 'outburst: "We:
couldn't hear.”
Finally an onlooker asked »“• ques
tion: Did'the children think the mem
bers looked very clever? The'answer,
tbo most unanimous came with one
voice. "No,” said the 40 little future
voters. ‘ •

A number of ministers,are already
facing, the prospect of going to prison
in event of war.';, ' .
Another group is asking — Should
pacifists pay income tax — especially
the-new additions expressly for arm
aments?
The cleavage it. appears, is usually
between clergymen over 40 years of
age and those below.
A large proportion of the young
men are pacifists who would not even,
succor wounded soldiers on the ground
that to do so is to take part in war.
Among the older clergy kre a ma
jority; who are strong supporters of
the League of Nations, who uphold
sanctions, and who would approve of
the use of armed forces in case of
need.
. Rough corresponding figure* of the
freei churches are:
Methodist clergy, *691 put of 3,000.
, Congregational, about 350 out of
2,000....' .
Baptists, possibly 200 out of 2,009.
In addition, Unitarian ministers
who have ..renounced war number
about 100, Presbyterians 70, and the
-Chur-Gh-ofSeotlandabout-200. —-
It is clear that the proportion of
the whole is comparatively smalt
The attitude of Anglican, clergy is
complicated by,'the church’s close, as
sociation with the State and by per:
sonal family ties with near relatives
serving in the armed forces.
The British recruiting campaign is
proving to be very unsatisfactory
i'reim the government’s standpoint.
The War Office had hoped to enlist
30,000 men during the year. Twenty
four weeks have • passed . and Only
about 9,600 men have, been enlisted.
, The government’s three minutes re;

ed with scenes if army life,-was not
an unqualified success. A weli-in'form-

the film was unfortunate/— did not
have, a gopd effect.”
Dr. Donald Soper, minister at Is
lington Central Hall, Lo,ndon, and a"
joint secretary of the Methodist Fel
lowship of Peace, makes no bones
about bis opposition to-recruiting. He
speaks against it on Tower Hill. .
"If the situation/becomes really cri
tical I should have to take upon my
self the tusk of inciting to disaffec-.
tion,” he said. "1 should advise sol
diers to throw down tlieir arms.” ■
He forsees that his action might

Cow Raising Motherless Colt
Conflict exists over what pacifism
is, since these for the most part call
themselves pacifists also.
It is difficult to arrive at estimates
of the'strength of the various groups
within the free churches, but after
discussions with well-informed per
sons it would seui that about a tenth
to a fifth are extreme pacifists.
A fifth take an approximately Tory'
view that the British Empire must be
preserved ,and fought for if the need,
arises. ■ „
The remainder support the League
of Nations and 'collective security. a

dard there, Prof. D. L. Woifal of the
University of Mississippi, told the
Midwestern Psychological Associa
tion.
Monkeys have no sense of co-opera-
•tion, the professor said. he determined
in a series of experiments, -
Wolfel said he placed two monkeys
in cakes side by side. In front of the
cages was a long lever mounted on
» platform, corresponding in length to
the combined length of the cages.
The apparatus was so arranged
that the monkey in Cage A could pull
a chain and. move the lever so it could
carry a, cup of food to the monkey
in Cage B.* On the opposite side of
the cages, another lever could be man
ipulated by the monkey in "Cage B to
feed the monkey in Cage A.
All the monkeys—four pairs were
used in 24 tests daily for more than
a month—pulled the lever when there
was food in the cup. > They pulled just
as regularly when the cup was empty.
Then a screen was placed between
the cup and the monkey who did the
pulling. The monkey in the other
cage, able to see the food which was
shielded from its partner, evidences
e?tc item ent-to—which monkey -No. 1“
paid no attention. .
Next one Monkey was removed
from his cage. His partner pulled
food into the empty cage as readily
as when.it was occupied. ’
Wolfel said his results proved, the
fallacy of legends of co-operation
