'wee, A STURDY NEW CANADIAN The efforts of Immigration officials to secure desirable settlers, from the Old Land are meeting with a very gratifying response, especially in the line, sturdy, industrious types secured.

Many of these brought out their families and "Wee .Took Ross," pictured above, is a splendid sample of the sturdy young stock thus transplanted, to grow into sterling Canadians. The Mayor's Man. Quakers are well known to be cau- tious and restrained of speech. There is a story long current in New 1300 ford, writes Mrs, Phoebe S. Howland, of an old Quaker resident who once had occasion to doubt some state- ments made by a cousin of his who was not one of the Society of Friends. "William," he said, "thee knows I never call anybody names; but, Wil- liam, it the mayor of the city were to come to me and say, `Philip, I want thee to find me the biggest liar in New Bedaorde I should come to thee and put thy hand on thy shoulder and say to thee, 'William, the mayor wants to see thee.

The failure of the school, how- ever, passes by unnoticed. The Usual Work.

Some writer reminds us that when we sea a dog running down the street with his head hanging and his tail be- tween legs, our first impulse is to kick him. But the fellow that trots briskly up to us. with his head and tail up and a friendly light in his eye we are really glad to see, and instead of a kick we give him a smile and a pat.

Britain's Smallest Cathedrals. The smallest cathedral in Great Bri- tain, and-peasibiy the smallest in the world, is the cathedral church of the. diocese of Argyll and the Isles, situ- ated on an island in the Firth of Clyde. It provides accommodation for only one hundred worshippers. St. Asaph Cathedral, too, is notably small; but in the commanding beauty of its site it yields to none of the greater cathedrals, except, perhaps, that of Durham. In the -middle of the Vale of Clwyd, Malan stretches from than tD Rhyl, stands a ridge forming a kind of back- bone to the valley, washed on the east by the river Clwyd and on the' west by the river May. On this ridge is perched St. Asaph Cathedral. wow OF PURE43RPD STOCK. FOUND IN 'IDELY SEP- ARATED SECTIONS OF GLOBE. The Hawaiian Islands Supplied With Their First Pure -Bred Dairy Cattle. Undoubtedly the outstanding fee. tore of Cauadlan agricultural hletory within recent yeara has been the 130 - minion's rise in dairying. From emin-n0e Mum in cattle and euprelllaayfn wheat, Canada Is seulously making a bid for premier place in quality and quantity butter production, The velums of out- put has etead'ily risen by substantial amounts for several years, 1022 adding an increment of 14 per cent, to that of the previous year, whilst the tavola able acceptaneo of the product on the world's markets and the securing of many internationot prizes constitute the beet testimony of the Canadian manufacture. At the National Dahy Slow in the fall 01 1923, Canada secured so many and strep a variety of awards that the eonolueton reached by expert cattle authorities is that the average dairy animal in the Dominion bee now at- tained a greater perfection then the average dairy animal in the United States, an. outstanding achievement for a country which has. but so recent- ly turned its serious attention to the industry. A substantiation of this :re- gard would seen: to be the manner in which other countrlee, anxious, to raise • the standard of their dairy stock, are looking to Canada as possessing the criterion in this regard. Though Canada, with so recent a de- velopment lu this connection, can hardly be said, to have a superfiutty of high -bred dairy cattle, and is con- tinually supplementing wbat she has and elevating the Dominant standard by European importations, certain for- eign countries think so much of Cana- dian breeding that there le a constant exportation of fine dairy animals from the dominion: Canadian dairy stock is now to be found in many widely separated sections of the globe, iii - proving the standard of stock there. Shipment to Hong Kong. In the present year alone, the first shipment of Canadian dairy cattle from Canada to Hong Kong took place when at the request of the authorities there the Livestock Commissioner col- lected thirty-two fine Holsteins from dairy forms on the Pacific ccast and sent them to the island as foundation stock. In the same manner a prize Holstein bull, Sir Romeo Fano, from a farm at Sault Ste. Marta, which had been a prize winner at practically all the livestock shows iu Canada, was purchased by the Japanese Cavern - mot and was slopped to Japan to im- prove the stock of that triunity. This latter was by no means the first importation of its kind made' 117 Japan, as in 1922, at the request of the Japanese Consul -General for Can- ada, the Dominion Department of Ag- riculture assembled a ,shipment ot six high-class young Holstein cows with excellent milk "and batter record's which were shipped from Vancouver for Tokio. Australians are enthusiastic over Canadian 'pure-bred dairy cattle. A herd of Belgians were &hipped, a couple of years ago, to the Antipodes as' an experiment, and so great was tie demand Inc them that they could have been sold several times over. A regular export business be this tine has been developed between the two Dominions, and us not long ago :an A- tralian buyer la Ontario picked up five superb animate, which he personally shipped across the Pacific. • "Yes," said the new -rich mother, "my daughter has.been trained under the best singing masters.

Some time later the crew left above drew up the first loaded bucket, leaned over it eagerly and turned away in disappoint- ment. It contained a meager assort- ment of colas of no particular value. But the sun had not reddened the waters at dawning more than half a dozen times before the buelcets began to come up heavy with geid bars, each one worth more than $5,000.
