Suzanne Lenglen, the fam- ous French tennis star, who turned professional in 1926, is now negotia- ting to be reinstated as an amateur. All is not gold that glitters and we predict that many a boy who turned pro for hockey wishes that he had remained an amateur, especially those who were "weighed" in fast company and found wanting. Miss C. Macdonald Is Now in Canada Daughter of the late Dr. Meter Mc- Donald, former M.P. for North Huron. From the rapidly increasing and quickly broadening field of he so- cial service work in Tokyo, Japan, Miss Caroline Macdonald has arrived in London to speed a brief noli¢lay, a guest for the Christmas season with her mother, Mrs. Peter Macdonald, 4n South London. "I've never had time to develop a method of work," said bliss McDon- ald. "So many tthirgs to be done, so many cases to be handled seem to just flop down on my doorsteps and I go right at them, doing the job that lies nearest. without reference to any particular method.' If all lack of method resulted as Miss Macdonald's is doing, the sys- tem would be worth general adoption. Working under a board of influential Japanese citizens, the Canadian wo- man is a member, the only non- Japanese member, of a trustee board of 10, under whose direct manage- ment the important social service work is carried forward by Miss.Mac- donald and her co-workers, all Jap- anese. Factory Night School. ' A recent most interesting develon- ment, which has received Government recognition, -is the establishmeut of a night school for factory gii''- in the silty of Tokyo. A young Japanese girl of 23 is the head of the school, and teachers from cit day schools give volunteer services in a comae of study that is the equivalent of first year high school, certifiea.frs foe which rear ire the same eredit, Much of Miss Macdonald's work is priaun visiting. Prison reform, in- terpreted by thie brilliant Can•'dia n woman who has devoted her exeee. tional talents to the service of the people_ of Japan, is "prisnner'4 re- form." "Ther. are just two lemurs of peesle,y mh l'nrw, 11.x.i h tcdivr,l 7 quoted cheerfully, "those who a• ''n prison and those who oiesitt To LTi."

And although one does. not Dear it from.Ce1'oline Macdonald her- self, there are many stories of the splendid results ae (sieved among those whom the world was ready to recent only as criminals ---stories that are eines of achievement and sure .s, Aftei' the big quake bliss Macdon- ald and her fellow workers ,et about Ito find adequate housing for their work, and the present capacious re.s1- dence, which is much too interesting to be dubbed. merely a settlement house, 'has been entirely' paid for by Japanese contributions' including $15,000 from the government.

Fires Have Taken 120 Little Lives This Year The fire at Ho= -pica, Saint Charles, in Quebec, last Wednesday night, is the third disaster to take toll of numerous young lives in Can- ada this year, bringing the number of children victims to about 120 or more. The other two were the fire and panic at the Laurier Theatre, Mon- treal, January 9, when 78 were killed, and the orphanage fire at Lae La Flonge, Sask., September 19, when twenty children were burned to death. Other fires in Canada this year claimed. upwards of forty victims. 0 SEES CRITICAL YEAR IN FIGHT CORN -BORER Massev-Harns Implements and Repairs also full line of Beatty Bros' Wares including Litter Carriers, Stanchels, Water Bowls, Hay Tools, etc. Shop at former Electric Light Plant.

The House will likely assemble with at least one vacant seat, for there appears to be no inclination on 1 the part of the Government at the present time to plunge the vacant South Bruce Riding into a winter by-election. If Hon. Dr. Leeming Carr, Minister without portfolio, and member for East Hamilton, quite his post as foreasted, for the office of Sheriff of Wentworth County, there will be two vacant seats. One More Supporter. On the present face of things, Pre- mier Ferguson will have one more straight -party supporter titan he had lase season, Horace Colliver's I return to the fold by acclamation in the Prince Edward.

There is a persistent rumor in cer- tain political quarters that before Parliament convenes the Liberals and Progressives will present a un- ited front under the leadership of William F. N. Sinclair. • Undoubted- ly there was some movement toward thi: objective a year ago. That movement, it i0• now learned, has not waned to any extent, in spite of the fact that J. G.

The members and officials have all found you giving strict attention to the county's busi- ness. in a conscientious and efficient manner, attending all meetings, and having a careful supervision over all matters. The year that has passed has had many contentious problems but in your position of presiding of- ficer you have so handled matters that the county's business was con- ducted in a businesslike and harmon- ious manner. We sincerely hope that you will be a member of the incoming councils, so that they may have the benefit of your sound advice and experience. We beg you to accept this cane as a small token of the esteem in which you are held by nour fellow -members of the 1927 --council, and hope your- self and Mrs. Klopp may have a long, happy and contented life.

Applications had been made for further increases of 1 Provincial highway mileage in the county, including the Blue Water Highway, and he thought these roads would eventually be taken over. Oswald Ginn, inspector under the Corn Borers Act, also nrrde an oral report. He told of the ravages of the borers in other counties to which he had gone to obeerve the methods of dealing with the: pest. Much edu- cational work had been done by the -distribution of literature; but owing to weather conditions and other cir- cumstances great difficulty was ex- perienced in the carrying out of precautionary measures. The worm worked from within and for this rea- son spraying was not effective. A communication was received from the city of London requesting the co-operation of this county in raising an endowment fund of 12,- 000,000 for Western University. This was filed. G. R. Paterson, agricultural repre- sentative, addressed the council re- garding the work under his charge. He strongly recommended spraying for fruit production. To get young people interested in faun work he advocated young people's clubs, judging contests, and school fairs. Fifteen of the nineteen schaol fairs in the county did well this year and improved their exhibits very consid- erably. If school pupils were not honest in their exhibits, he remarked, it was up to the parents. In reply to an inquiry the clerk stated that the cost of the county equalization was $3,026, the amount not including the cost of the special session. A motion by Mr. Milne, seconded by Mr. Booker, for ,more generous treatinant of continuation schools was referred to the education coat - The question of special road levies was discussed at some length and a motion was submitted by Mr. Mc- Quaid, seconded by Mr. Inglis, that Messrs.

The yeas end nays were token and the amendment was carried by 14 to 11. At the Thu'rs.lav morning sitting a motion was pr airn*ed b;7 Messrs.
