THE MURDER OF BECKET
Seven hundree and fifty seven
years ago, on the 20th. December
1170, Thomas Becket, the Primate of
the English church, wee murdered.
He was born in London in .111e,
andhis father, who wae, one of the
great oity merchants a his day, gave
his only son a splendid education,
which proved a valuable asset when
reverses in the family fortunes ren-
dered it necessary for him to make
his own way in the world.
He commenced his meteoric career
by acting as notary to a wealthy kins-
man, but at the age of 24 he became
'the confidential secretary of Theo..
bald, Archbishop of Canterbury, by
whom he was entrusted with many
important missions. Thirteen years
later Theobald secured for him the
poet of Chancellor of the Realm,
thinking that he would prove a good
friend to the church, but Becket was
not the man to serve two masters,
and he exercised all the powerful
influence of his position in the in-
terests of the State. He became the
bosom friend of King Henry II, and
during the war with France, when
he acted as commander of the English
army and afterwards ,drew up The
peace treaty, he gained distinction
as a soldier and diplomatist.
1163 Theobald died, and the
ointed Becket to the vacant
intending that he

resuming hI prim:ley was to excom-
municate he A:yhidshop of York end
the BLhops of London and of Salis-
bury, who had worked against the
interests of the Church during Beek-
et's absence.
The three prelates lost no time in
joining the king, who was still in
France, and Henry in his rage made
a remark which was construed by
four of his knights as a wish that
Becket should be removed. These
four men, Reginald Fitzurse, WiUianu
de Tracy, Hugh de Mandeville and
Richard le Bret, at once left for Eng-
land and arrived in Canterbury late
in the afternoon of the 29th Decem-
ber. They gained admittance to the
Primate's palace, where they had a
stormy interview with Becket, who
refused to comply with their insolent
demand that he should, return with
them to the king as their prisoner,
but as they were alone and unarmed
they were forced to eaten.
Becket then proceeded to the Cath-
edral for the evening service while
the four knights armed themselves
and collected their followers and a
large body of king's men. They
'then marched into the Cathedral,
where, finding Becket in front of the
altar, they again demanded his sur-
render. He again refused, and they
at once set upon the unarmed man
with their swords. The prelate
fought against their attack with the
dauntless courage which had so dis-
tinguielied him upon the battlefield,
but he was speedily hurled to the
ground and hacked to death
hrutal murder sent a thrill

According to Dr. J. - B. MacDou-
gall, Assistant Chief Inspector of
the Ontario Provincial Department
of Education, the operation of the
-Canadian Pacific school car in
northern Ontario has proved a more
successful venture than the Depart-.
ment had ever expected. He stated
that the progress of the pupils dur-
ing the year of operation has been
remarkable.
The Western Canada Grain Pool
contemplates spending $5,000,000
during the coming year in exten-
sions to facilities in country eleva-
tors and terminals in Western Can-
ada, according to George H. Mclvor,
General Sales Manager of the Pool,
on a visit to Toronto recently. The
building programme includes 100 or
150 country elevator in Alberta; 150
in Saskatchewan and 40 in Mani-
toba. At present there are 150 in
Alberta, 730 in Saskatchewan and
50 in Manitoba.
Close on 400 miles of branch line
construction in Saskatchewan and
Alberta have been virtually com-
pleted up to December 1st by the
Canadian Pacific Railway, accord-
ing to a report from headquarters.
On 282 miles of this construc-
tion grain from the current year's
harvest is being taken out, and
while work is closed down at this
date on most of them, there are
still 50111-e on which bridge and other
construction work is being proceeded
with.
About 300 carloads of Christmas
trees will be delivered to the trade
from the Province of Quebec from
the end of November onward, ac-
cording to indications of traffic re-
ceived at Canadian Pacific Railway
headquarters. This will mean about
500,000 trees of a value of about
$150,000 to the farmers of this pro-
vince. The average size of the
trees tor the New York and Bos-
ton markets is about 6 feet. They
are mostly white spruce and bal-
sam of the "weed tree" variety
which is of prolific growth and
little commercial value.
