A New Poultry Book.
A new book, entitled "Canadian Farm
Poultry," has just been published by
Macdonald College, Que. The book
Is well bound, neatly printed, replete
with practical information and is well
illustrated. It Is the first Canadian
poultry book to be offered to the pub-
lic, the nominal charge of 50c being
made merely to cover cost of printing
and mailing. All phases of chicken
raising are discussed, emphasis being
laid twilit the development of winter -
laying strains of the more popular com-
mercial breeds. The book should be
of timely service to all who keep chick-
ens and should influence the develop-
ment of the Canadian poultry industry,
which has assumed a remarkable
growth within the past few years. A
copy may be obtained by sending 50c
in stamps or postal note to The Bursur
Macdonald College, Prov. Quebec.

AUTUMN
Along about this time of year, when the
season's nigh to fall
And the shadowed medder pasture
hears the Bob White's twilight call,
There's a thought that come a sad-
denin' that another year is gone
And Lite morning's gettin' nearer with
the mysteries of the dawn.
Youth is piowin' and a-draggin' and
preparin' of the field;
Age the harvest and the reckonin'
and the meaSurin, of the yield.
Youth is sowin' and the mowin', and
the plantin' of the hill;
Youth is sun -rise; age the night time
of the whistlin' whippoorwill.
Youth is morning; singing sheperds
with their flocks go pastureward;
Age the gloamin' and returnini and
the lowin' cattle herd.
Left aside, the mower's rutin' and
the binder's in the shed,
And the summer's sue is sinkini in
the heavens overhead.
Work for Man IS at the garnerini for
the day is well along
Toward the Ume-a-tellio' fireflies
and the hidden cricket's song.
It's a thought that comes a saddenin'
that another year is gone
And the month's getting nearer
with the mysteries Of the dawp. I

The American Post.
The British people have been tauglit,
by unduly nervous instructors, that
the position of 13ritish representative
in the United States is one calling for
almost superhuman tact and transcend-
ent ability. Their view is that the ideal
Ambassador would he either Mr. Balfour
or Viscount Grey, or perhaps Lord
Reading. All have had important mis-
sions in the United States, and both
Mr. Balfour and Lord. Reading made a
profound impression. Lord Grey was
not so fortunate, put the fault was not
his, Perhaps much of the astonishment
that has greeted the announcement of
the Sir Auckland Geddes choice was
due to the fact that Viscount Grey,
the most tractful and diplomatic of
men, had Just returned to England af-
ter having failed in his mission. It may
very well be that Sir Auckland will be
a great success, that he knows the
American people and American poli-
tical conditions better than ambassa-

American comment upon the selection
has been favorable. Sir Aukland has
an American wife. He is no stranger
in the United States; and he is known

Scotch and Athletic. •
Sir Auckland Geddes was born in
Scotland, and was educated at Edin-
burgh University, London Hospital and
Freiburg. His father was an engineer
whose work took him to all parts of
the world, and brother Eric saw the
light in India. Both boys had a taste
for out of doors and for sports, as their
physique today will bear witness. Eric
is somewhat bullocky figure. Auck-
land, while tall and spare, not to say
gaunt, has a tremendous pair of shoul-
ders, which contrast with his scholar -
like droop and the professional look
that is .enhanced by eyeglasses. Both
played on the London Football team.
After graduating in medicine, Auckland
Geddes became demonstrator and assis-
tant professor of anatomy at Edinburgh
University and later on professor of
anatomy in the Royal College of Sur-
geons, Dublin. From Ireland he came
to Canada as professor of anatomy at
McGill, How Ile impressed the stu-
dents there some of them ;night tell.
His reputation at any rate stood very
high, and today lie would be reckoned
among the best half-dozen British au-
thorities on anatomy,
Soldiering a Hobby.
His professional duties were not
strong enough to keep him out of the
South African war, for he enlisted as a
lieutenant in the Third Highland Light
Infrantry. The experience gave him a
great interest in military affairs, which
he pampered as a hobby, according to
John II, Henderson, in the New York
Evening Post, and "literally rode it to
France in 39414 with the rank of inajor,"
There lie served on the Adjutant -Gen-
eral's staff and almost immediately dis-
tinguished himself for his executive
ability, something that had hardly been
expected of a university professor. 'In

popular, but while this may he so, it is
also to be said that Sir Auckland raised
up a host of critics, After the war he
was entrusted with the important post
of Minister of Reconstruction, which
again involved great labor, and after
holding it for some time he expressed
his desire to retire from public life and
accept the Presidency of McGill, which
had been offered him. On Lloyd.

came President of the Local Govern-

a new Ministry of Health. Now comes
the crowning honor of the post at
Washington, and if doubts are express-
ed as to his being the best available
man, it cannot be from any scepticism
as to Sir Auckland's ability. He calls
himself a Canadian, and it has always
been a belief of 'Canadians that they
understand their American cousins bet-
ter than do the folk of the British Isles.
Canadians particularly will be "pulling"

Great War Finds
Way into Books
In Public School
Grammar and Composition Takes
New Form: Modernized -Oral
Work is Vital -And its Import-
ance is Recogniezed by the
Authors of the New Text
Books. •
The sunburned girls and boys, with
fresh memories of long carefree sum-
mer days now restless under starched
collars and uneasy under the rules
and regulations of Public school life
need nut worry about "grammar" and
"composition," 'I his year a brand new
text bthfk is being Issued throughout
Ontario called the Public School Com-
position and Grammar." This is filled
from cover to cover with material so
different from old standard, text books
that to call it radical would not be am
iss.
The new text book is compiled by
11, W. Irsvin B. A. a teacher at Harbord
Collegiate Institute and aided by Mr.
Andrew Stevenson of London Normal
school who was partly responsible for
the Incorporation of the grammar. It
is being published by the Copp Clark
Company.
According to Mr. J. E. Wetherell
editor of text books there are four dis
tinct features of the book that make
it entirely different from the books
formerly used. In the first place it is
pointed out the elements of English
grammar a knowledge and correct ex-
pression of thought are introduced ear
lier and are incorporated in the various
chapters on composition at the pro-
per stages in the development of the
subject, Then oral composition has
been given a paramount consideration
al all good teachers of English recog-
nize the fact that the ability of the
pupil to speak correctly and fluently is
of the first importance and is the best
for written composition Willa has too
long almost monopolized the field.
More to Live Topics.
In the third place Mr. Wetherell
says less attention has been given than
in former text books to themes for es-
says based on mythology poetry and
general literature and more attention
has been given to topics connected with
the activities and observations' of the
eplups.
pupils and with recent and current ev-
itThis last is one of the features that
will tend to make the text book popu-
lar with the pupils. Gone are the prosy
tales of musty ages and in their places
are bright stories of the late war. and
those things which the children see
every day. Sprinkled liberally through
the book are reproductions of many of
the best pictures from the Canadian
War Memorials at Ottawa.
As a basis for a lesson in the intro-
duction and conclusion of a story
is the graphic account of the way Maj-
or MacDowell of the 38th Canadian
I3attalion won his Vittoria Cross. On

O SAVE YOUR COAL 0
Mr. H. A. Harrington, Fuel
Administrator for Ontario in a
statement on Saturday said the
coal shipments to Ontario had
decreased since the strike began
last week. He says that the Pro-
vince cannot make up the short-
age, as since the beginning of
the year the quota of coal due
daily has not arrived. The short.
age now is about 300,000 tons.
He strongly urged every per
son to conserve their supply as
much as possible and to start
fires as late as possible.
