BRITISH BLOCKADE TROUBLES HOLLAND A despatch from The Hague says: - The question of the new British dan- ger zone has assumed a serious aspect so far as Dutch shipping is concern- ed. It is now obvious that unless the German Government is willing to change the so-called safety channel farther west, that is nearer the Ger- man coast, Dutch overseas shipping will be at a complete standstill, as is the case at present. The Dutch Gov- ernment has approached Germany on this question, and is expecting an answer shortly.

The Diet rejected by a vote of 104 to 86 an amendment by Deputy Cuallas Proposing that the bill should be submitted for the approbation of the Russian Provisional Government.

A despatch from Berlin says: The time-honored custom among hotel guests of depositing one's' footwear in the corridor outside the door to have it polished, is likely to come into dig - -use for the time being.

An English dog fano and breeder, says Ariswers, uses the telephone in connection with his kennels in a novel and very efreetive manner. Close to the kennels is theiterinel man's house, and a telephone arrangement has been set up in every kennel. In case the dogs are uoisy at night, the kennel man.speaks to the dogs by means of these instruments, and very soon tlie din subsides and the dogs go to sleep. . They bear the voice of authority and obey. Sometimes a dog cries for lone- liness, and the same means bring bim comfort. That is not the ordy case in. which an owner has used the telephone for com- municating with his dog. Many of our readers probably know of in- stances similar to the following: A lady 'who went to see a friend that lived a mile from liereborne took with her a little brown cocker. spaniel, The dog was relegated to the kitchen while she stayed, and when she left she forgot him. As soon as her friend found out what had happened she tried to persuade the dog to go home, but with no success. He evi- dently thought his mistress was hiding somewhere, for he went whimpering about the place and refused to go. After a while the lady telephoned to the dog's mistress to let her 'know his Whereat/oats. " "Bring him to the telephone," was the reply. One of the boys held him while another put the receiver to his ear. Then his tristrese whistled, and said, "Come home at once, Rover!" Immedi- ately the dog wriggled out of the boy'i arms and, the moment he was free, made a bee line for lionee! g perint In tl garyo arflOtnited to $11)1,100. , Wheat in the district ttertbs est llrlooee Jaw is 27 inebee high o i The Mane Economies Soci y held a eollVentiall Peeeittly :ilt r0.13 Edmonton made $$1t) itt out of recent circus anti side -4 the city, The 'number eople attending_ t anted exhibition Calgaey wasuor 028, which is the largest in ite history,/ Ilundrede of panes of &lee werel eke rohen and mueb garden stuff cut toi ser,4"5, adbur5t open - been 8hitt straight CV -1. when he Was o hampten eighty-two of the In - have been able to advance abo 1- 191roetn clerks Elt Worthing recruiting A5 4 reSill tlis thSe 9"ratleris lry ' 141:11.0, It1ialli:14' IlsroQiPieee Mofeil tahi eoff:lideerOlYr.- Mil3 141 til Euphrates -441 the ja5t ..teT.1 Qiiieg:r tile Crowo et" Daly has been der awarded to Corporal Barnard of the Yeenntory. le Chave, Master i 14, id of anotlier v k Caetle, bee been a tTED 11 �w a h 'e of Mae un tto 0 en A tie ileet, tl :Illva' . nete°rioithis'011;I'le'se:a°aYirtfitiecRerarlsiloollitinettr)::111041;tqlh'I‘aal'et:ron): t°t111 tr. ac,e1INilSroF•irsgtH°1)i3ei:ortfgineligunlii's'glt1411gC101:1111,5d1;111,,,,arall:olidr‘rvsiloittl, e'' FlYb5Ifel men munition workers line heen P1101- stowly .108 bet 'for the itee ef, wo- , to'i ed at Plumetead Station ' by the Y,al.
