tem Il rve• been ranch discussed since
the war broke out and this fact gave
especial importance to the arguments
Oi' the opposing speakers. Messrs. W.
H. _eraser and W. H. Haney for the
affirmative maintained that Conscription
is preferable eo the Volunteer System
while this view was hotly contested by
Rev. B. D. Thompson and Mr. J. W.

ments largely from the present Euro-
pean conflict. .fudges were dispensed
with for this debate and no time limit
was imposed on the speaker and their
replies and counter -replies were deliver-
ed with the greatest vigor and animation

the Au'd Scotch Songs" with beautiful
expression and a bright piano solo was
contributed by a visitor, Miss Isabel
Shaw.

the usual debate a new feature will be
introduced by the Literary Society when
an open discussion will be held on the
very important rural problem, "How
to make Farm Life Attractive for the
Boy." Mr. George McDonald will read

sion will be taken up from various
points of view by a number of other
speakers including Robt. Black, Robt.

Only Told.the Truth.
When he was a student at Heidel-
berg
eidelberg John Sharp Williams was regard-
ed as having the most robust imagina-
tion in the student body. That truth
is stranger than fiction, however, was
proved one day at his boarding place,
when the future United States senator
chanced to describe the kind of pota-
toes he had been raised on in his na-
tive Mississippi. They were s6 unlike
potatoes as the German people knew,
them that the whole proposition was
beyond belief. Yet John Sharp had
done nothing but describe the ordinary
sweet potato of every day commerce.

Food of the Barn Owl.
The barn owl is one of the most bene-
ficial of the birds of prey, since it feeds
almost exclusively on small mammals
that injure farm produce, nursery and
orchard stock. It eats pocket gophers,
field mice, common rats, house mice,
harvest mice, kangaroo rats and cotton
rats. It occasionally captures a few
birds and insects. 'semis species of owl
should be protected throughout its en-
tire range.

would happen, mamma, if you didn't
wipe me dry? Would T get rusty?"
