Animals Can Be Led To Safety Fran Western Ontat'le canae the Story of a barn struck by lightning, Alrparengy the Are following did not horn .14e rapidly 'as usual, end there was rain 80011 after whieh . may have helped matters. There was dine for several. 11e1gh110rs to gather and help take a' fel things frons .the building, but the seory says chief d1ff'cu1t;y .was in getting the 110reea out. The old role Is to .throw something over the bead of a 11.>1'> 0 in a state of fear and the animal ean then be led to safety, Foul' horses were taken out of that burning, barn, but two of them returned and were lost, and in doing s0 they were acting just the same as a good many other horses have done on 811011ur occasions, And that brings up the old question of wily a horse returns to its stall even when the barn Is on Arc: That 11>e; will do it is not to question be- cause it has been done so frequent- ly, but why it is done is not so clear. • The most satisfactory expi:Oa:to'l we have encountered is thst the horse regards the stall as a home, and when there is a great deal of confusion as in the time of a Are the horse wares to go home. The feeling is claimed to be 1nucli the sante its that Possessed by a ohild who/ 11 comes on night or when there is dan- ger--lt wants to go home. We recall having seen a blind horse on a farm, It was seven years old and had been bunts for four years, It went from eas:are near the bushland along a path across a bridge and then along the lane toward the barn. Entering the barn yard the blind horse passers between two buildings and then went to the far side of the ronin barn, Passed five other stalls and en. tered the sixth from the door, ane that was where it belonged. The strange thing Is the other horses were net coming up from pasture at the time, but the b'liud horse quite often came in by itself and went without error to its stall. That ant- ntal felt It was at home in its own stall The average farm horse spends a good many hours eaoh and every week In ate stall, particularly when the summer season le iver. It is part of the daily routine going in there when work is clone and having the harness removed, It. Is fed and cleaned there, and ;.e far as an ani- mal can dlave fee:in, we believe the "home" feeling w. uld be centred in its stall. And that is way It wants to get back there even if the barn is on fire. --Peterborough Ex- aminer.

C•anadian Pacific Extends Air -Conditioned Service i The Canadian Pacific Railway Angus Shops at ;Montreal are humming with activity these days as the Company continues its comprehensive programme of air- conditioning. In the current year, air-conditioning equipment will be added to 130 ears, iueluding standard sleepers, dining cars, tourist sleepers, parlor cars, and day coaches, and these, in addi- tion to the 130 cars air-condition- ed in 1030, Will permit a very considerable extension of air-con- ditioned services throughout the Dominion. Provision is made by the 1037 programme to provide air-con- ditioned dining cars on all trains carrying air-conditioned eleopers or parlor ears, baaidei additional sleeping and parlor cars for use on trains between Alontreal and Quebec, ,Montreal and Ottawa, Toronto and Ottawa, and trains 39 and 40 between Montreal and Saint John, N.B. Air -condition - lug of tourist cars for use on the transcontinental trains between Vancouver and Montreal and Tor- onto is a new and interesting fea- ture of the 1937 programme. Thls will supplement last year's ser- vices which allowed air-eoudition- ed standard sleepers, compart- ment -lounge, bedroom and parlor ears to be used on transcontinen- tal trains between Montreal, Tor- ronto, and Vancouver; the Mont- real, Toronto, Hamilton, Chicago services; and the night trains be- tween Montreal and Beaten. Air. conditioned sleepers and lounge ear's' were also provided for the "leountaineer" service between Chicago, St, Paul, and Vancouver. Some idea of the work connect- ed with air-conditioning is given by the pictures above. Cars are stripped, as in lower right, and insulated to keep out heat, cold, and dust. The pictures at the left show some of the material being placed in the cars. The satisfaction written all over the face of the young lady, in "Lower 6," expresses the public's feelings toward this new type of control- led comfort, Iat the centre Is a close-up of the control equipment, by which, as the arrows indicate, the Individual can regulate the volume and direction of the flex of air,
