IMPERIAL OIL COMPANY Limited BRANCHES THROUGHOUT CANADA 'AAA IMPROVING THE DAIRY HEHD. The wise farmer is constantly on the alert to improve his dairy condi- tions. Much of this improvement can be made (and in the lenst time and with the least cost) by the use of a pure bred sire. But it is not only important that he should be a pure bred atimal, but that he ehould repre- sent a 'Strain of good milkers. There should be a history back of that etre. It is foolish to go back five or six generations for this history, The im- portant Qoint is, what is the reputa- tion of his immediate ancestors? Are they, or have they been heavy pro- ducers.? Did his dam, and his grand - dam on his sire's side, preauce milk, or butterfot, or both in large quantities: If the immediate family hietory first class in every way, the question of pedigree is largely settled, It is an- enediate ancestry that counts.

Microphones Direct This Ship When Submerged. —devicewhich send forth either bell sounds or rilYthiale vibrations, It is easy to see how useful they can be Made to telegraph orders to a subma- rine under water five miles or more away," Although the submarine is blind ot- ter it dives it can be made to hear with the aid of microphones or elec- tric ears. Edward F. Chandler, an in- ventor who has made a close study of submarine problems, has wonted out a method of utilizing microphones whereby a submerged cratt may direct Its course accurately toward a hostile ship, He gives an interesting explan- ation of this method in the Popular Science Monthly. "In the modern telephone," says Mr, Chandler, "the transmitter is esset- tally a microphone, the preseure of the sound waves being communicated to the conductors by means of a dia- phragm. The sabmarine equipped for battle under the sea is provided with microphones on its port and starboaed bows. Telephone ear -pieces enable the submarine •conamander to listen to the sounds gathered by the micro- phones. If the submarine Is not Pointed head on toward the ship to be destroyed the microphone on the off- side will hearless than the other, and the difference in the volume of sound received by the two microphine detec- tors wil be noted at once in the tele- phone receivers. The commander changes his C0111"Be until he hears equally well with both earpieces, "While it is perfectly feasible to di- rect a submarine by telephone it is much more effective to convert the microphone vibrations into visual sig- nals. As a result the commander of a submarine has only to watch a finger move over a dial in order to know What course he 'should steer. In a sense he sees the sound which the mi- crophone detectors hear. "While a visual steering indicator is primarily 'depended upon to guide the submarine on its deadly- errand, tele- phones are connected with the micro - Phones, to be used when the occasion arises. With their aid the commander can distinguish one under -water sound from another and interpret at correct- ly. A tram P steanier can be micro - phonically distinguished from a Mau- retania, a torpedo boat...from a super - dreadnought, and above all, a sub -sur- face (.iraft from a surface 'craft. Thus the eharacter'of an Uhseen ship miles away can be ascertained. "But apart from listening to miming ships, the telephones will be required to receive messages from an admiral on a battleship five miles away, Both warships and merchantmen are equip- ped, with submarine signalling devices ouaolo?.. ot14.14$1144410..4:11*.m.....4 kuoao-o "saohoir 4.4.4romesiftlisaswon..... e7A30 Mu) J2,04-ieep LET 4001JR.NINETY ROADSTER niutuNG TYPE $05 F. 0.p. ostawA 468Q.

Ethical Wisdom Always Taught by Them. At the bottom of the folk tale there was ndarly always a basis of folk- wisdom--4the perception that right- thinking and tieing could bring people through all worldly, and even per- sonal, limitations and obstacles. The aortae were told by the common toile, who had to contend with every kind of material disadvantage, says the Chrlatian &fence Monitor. But they managed to grasp the essentiale of .existence in that hard schooling, and the greatest, simplest and most universal -of folk tales, the parablea, were told to them. In the folk tales of the world, ac- cording to the etanding of the na- tion's ethical barometer, we find cer- tain leesons taught perpetually. Kind - nese is always repaid in eome unex- pected form or other, even when the kindly act has pamed from the doer's memory; and the hubfblest person or creature may prove the most .power- thl friend in time of need, The old - woman by the roadside with her aor- den, the old man with hie etiok, •the traveler, the ill-treated dog or at, even the insect in difficulties, •the tired horse—all are agendas of untold good to thoee who •befriend, them, while those who pass with closed hand and heart find fortune strange- ly, adamantly adverse. Again, tne others with money, the oldest eons and heirs, who strut in confident pride, depending on, or puffed up by their material posses- sions, are the losere in the supreme quest, where the younger sons, often plain, sometimes dull or slow, but always kind hearted and always poor, are assured of triumph; and, in the story's course, slow wits develop and simple common sense' and truet are shown to be of greater value in pre- dicamente than the learning of schools, Indeed, a meet delicate ais- Unction is made between intellect and intelligence. 13ook learning, coupled with pride and scorn, is chown to be worthless, while good cheer, a eense of humor and a kind heart invariably solve the knottiest problene preeented. 4 S 0 SICKLY BABIES 'Sickly babies—little ones Who are troubled with their stomach and bow- el's; whose teething is painful; diges- tion bad and wile cannot sleep well— can be made healthy and happy with Baby's Own Tablets.
