LARGELY .IN BONDS
Other Flotations More Attrac-
tive Than Canadian
Victory Loan.
A despatch from Ottawa says: -
Sir Henry Drayton, Minister of Fine
mice, stated that citizens of the United
States did not buy so many of Can-
ada's Victory bonds as commonly re-
ported. A great deal of interest was
taken in the flotation, but just as they
were beginning to ,purchase Victory
fiends Great Britain floated a leen at
014 per cent., and this higher rate
xnade investors forget Canada's offer-
ings,
Asked what hopes the Government
had of Canada's overtaking the un-
favorable exchange situation, Sir
Henry said that the Government could
do nothing to affect that situation.
"So long as the people of Canada
persist in importing expensive arti-
cles so long shall we have an adverse
trade balance," he said. "If that
could be wiped out the exchange situa-
tion would take care of itself."
"Will American investors get any
advantage from the 5 per cent. ex-
change charged against Canadian
money ?" he was asked.
"The ,interest on Victory Loan bonds
is payable in Ottawa, so that we shall
have the exchange," he answered.
During the six months of Canada's
fiscal year ending September 4 Can-
ada's adverse trade balance with the
United States was 313`0,352,904. It is
stated here that it is impose ible to
float a loan in the United States to
stabilize the situation. Sir Thomas
White said before the Parliamentary
Committee on Soldiers' Civil Re-estab-
lishment at the last session of Parlia-
ment that the seventy-five million
dollars loan negotiated in New York
last summer represented about as
heavy a loan as Canada could raise
there. If the amount had been one
hundred millions he doubted if it could
lnai-e been negotiated.
2,400 CANADIANS
STILL , IN BRITAIN
Military Authorities Troubled
by Missing of Sailings.
A despatch from London says:-
More
ays:More than a year after the signing of
the armistice there are still 2,400
Canadian soldiers in Britain awaiting
repatriation apart from the twenty
odd thousand discharged men. While
the number is small, it is supplement-
ed by an equal number of dependents,
and theyhave been giving the military
authorities much trouble of late
through their failure to turn up at a
steamer after their passage had been
booked. A recent decision that married
soldiers be allowed free repatriation
after six months' delay for family
reasons promises to lengthen greatly
the work of repatriation now almost

A despatch from London says:-
Owing
ays:Owing to a prohibitive price of
wooden coffins, substitutes of concreee
have been delivered for the burial of
poorer people.
Up to a few weeks ago many ceme-
tery authorities declined to sanction
the use of concrete coffins, but in
many industrial quarters conditions
have become so acute that the em-
bargo has been withdrawn, and they
are now constantly used.
Concrete coffins answer the purpose
admirably,. and are much lighter than
wooden ones.

NEW CONSTITUTION
FOR EGYPTIANS
Britain Will Also Confer Self -
Government nment o'n Malta.
A despatch from London says: -A
constitution for Egypt and local •self-
government for Malta, both of which
were announced en Thursday, are de-
signed to meet the unrest in these
countries, which have been demanding
the application to themselves for the
theories of self-determinat-on and the
rights of smaller nationalities.
,The extreme Egyptian nationalists
have raised the banner of complete
independence, like the Sinn Fein, and
Cairo mesages :say that the Cabinet
has resigned as an answer to Field
Marshal Allenby's statement of the
British plans.
One of the Egyptian complaints has
been that Great Britain has published
its intention to maintain a protector-
ate, but has kept tha Egyptians in the
dark regafding what is meant by a
protectorate, and how it is to be car-
ried on. Great Britain's action in pre-
venting an Egyptian nationalist dele-
gation from going to the Paris Con-
ference to present grievances has bean
another cause for complaint.
The Government's justification be-
fore tie charges of neglecting Egypt
has been the enormous loat( of other
matters on its hands.
The Milner Commission, which is
to investigate` the causes of unrest in
Egypt, has not yet started, and the
natives threaten to boycott it and.re-
fuse to give any information.
Malta was in a state of tumult for
several weeks during the summer,
but there were no casualties, and little
news of the movement there has
reached England. Small attention has
been paid to it on account of other
overshadowing events..
Another sign of the times is that
a group of Burmese, with the snpport
of former British Burman officials,
have begun an agitation for including
!Burma in the naw measures of self-
government which the Montague
scheme will give India,

First Party of Women
Settlers For Canada
A despatch from London says: -In
a dismal rain, but in splendid spirits,
the first official party of British wo-
men settlers under the Dominion Gov-
ernment scheme left Euston on Thurs-
day morning for the Canadian land of
promise and hard work.
Others from all parts of the British
Isles joined them at Liverpool, bring-
ing the number to seventy-five.
A hardier, healthier seventy-five lot
of girls never left this land before. All
have worn uniform, and are under no
illusion that life consists entirely of
ehifi'on and sugarcake.
The Canadian housewives who se-
cure the help of these eager pioneers
must be prepared to welcome vigorous
young women who have contracted the
awful habit of work.
Every one in this pilgrim band
wears a hopeful spray of maple leaves
on her badge.
When Water Talks.
"Katie," one of the moat wonderful
Inventions exhibited at the recent ship-
ping engineering exhibition in London,
is Iikely to prove the most valuable
aid to sea captains and navigators yet
discovered. "Katie" is the name given
to the invention of an engineer, by
which he makes water talk.
It is an automatic float, with a sen-
sitive depth -finding mechanism con-
nected telephonically, and is placed on
the sur'face of the water. Another
delicate instrument rests on ,the bot-
tom, with a wire connection. When
an engineer wants to know the depth
of water at a particular spot he rings
up "Katie" on the 'phone and she tells
him the exact•depth.
She speaks in soft, jerky buzzes in
the manner of the Morse code, and
when. she gets out of her depth she
stutters. If the current is too strong
she becomes speechless, "Katie" will
also warn a captain how much water
has got into the hold or the engine -
room after a collision.
• The floating ship's safe is another
wonderful invention. It automatically
casts itself adrift from a sinking ship,
and will send- up a distress signal
every. hour for twelve hours. A sound
signal is also given, and. it will burn a
light at night for three months,

A Motor -Cycle Charge.
That the infantry did not monopo-
lize all the thrills in the war is proven •
by Capt. A. P. Corcoran in his book,
The Daredevil of the Army, from
which the following incident in the
life of a dispatch rider with the Bri-
tish is taken. He had reached.a cross-
roads on his way from Landrecies. To .
the right was the turn for home. lis
motor cycle took the curve itt a a
gerous angle, and as he once more
swept into the level, he raised his
head to scan the new road. He was
looking for his fellow rider, but at a
distance of not more than a hundred
yards he saw six mounted uhlans.
There was no time to turn; the
speed of the motor cycle decided that.
There was little time to think. Would
he surrender? That aright insure his
life, but the idea of a German prison
dd not entice hint. He was going about
sixty miles an hour. Throwing open
the. throttle of his machine, he sent
his speed up another five miles. He
could see the uhlans fingering their_
carbines; one of them, probably a
sergeant, was shouting an order to the
others --they were stretching in a line
across the road. Taking one hand
from the handlebars, he. drew Ms re-
volver.
Twenty-five yards away the two
centre uhlans were taking aim at his
head. With a sudden jerk he drew
himself erect in his saddle and thea,.
suddenly Iet his body fall along the
top of his tank, at the same time fir-
ing his revolver. He heard their bul'
lets whiz by him, but he had .spoiled
their aim. He saw one man topple
over. ` Another's horse reared . and
cane down with a crash on the two
uhlans on the left, As the dispatch
rider shot through the broken line,
he sent two more bullets point -black at
the men on his right and tore past, a
dark streak on the dusty highway.
Crouching over his handlebars,
muscles taut, nerves quivering, he
strained his ears for sounds that
might indicate pursuit. They came.
He could hear the pounding of horses'
hoofs on the hard road, but no cen-
taur could have caught up with his
motor cycle. Whiz! Another bullet
shot past his ear. He crouched still
lower on tiffs saddle, and was soon well
out of rang.

Breeding Insects.
It is no trouble at all to breetn-
sects of any kind. All that is required
is suitable temperature and a supply
of the kind. of food preFE.rred by the
bug.
Most insects feed on plants. It is a
question then of providing a closed re-
ceptacle containing the proper food
plant --as for exaihplc, tomato leaves
for thl tomato worm. • A growing plant
may be.used. Grain weevils will breed
in a jar with the sort or cereal pro-
vender they like.
Economic entomologists make a.
business of breeding the bugs in which
they may happen to be spechally in•
terested. In this way they study their
life history and, what is very impor-

the insects that customarily prey upon
them. For the parasites breed along

"A small ship launched upon en
known sea,
sea,
A small seed planted by an unknown
tree:
Such is this strange new year to you
and me:
Whither the' eseta gocth,
And how the tree upgroweth,
Gocl only kuoweth:
But sail the ship, and plant the •seed,'•
What is done; n'gaith Is'cione indeed."
