515 POLICEWOMEN are to be employed
by the city of London whose mission
will be largely to deal with erring sis-
ters. The authorities in choosing these
female keepers of the peace say they
dont want the vinegary spinster nor the
middle aged fanatic, but broad minded,
kindly, sensible women. That sounds
all right and should help out in many a
difficult task.
ONE of the old high wheel bicycles and
a woman with long hair and a long dress
are among the "attractions" of the d.y.
Fnuny how fashion sets the pace. Very
few men now wear side.buru whiskers
or a goa'ee. Why ? Because they are
not the style. The old phaeton buggy,
the Mug sleigh or the bouncing gig have
been sbewed off the road by the sedan
and touring car. The Goddess of Fash-
ion rules the realm.
Liam., air, pure water and milk, with
plain food and proper clothing are said
to be six rules to promote and prolong a
vigorous condition of health, Late
hours, lack of proper exercise, a pleas.
ure-mad program and a forgetfulness of
others are the pathways leading to the
road whose terminal is disaster, disap-
pointment and premature death.
"Whatsoever a man soweth that shall be
also reap" is just as true today as it was
2000 years ago when affirmed.
Ira fine to read of the good work done
for the children of the cities, during the
sunsmer months, in the way of bettering
health conditions and affording innocent
amusement. We sometimes wonder
why the great yearning to get to the city
exists. Hundreds of people would be
infinitely better off if they had continued
to five in rural communities. Like the
story of the spider and the fly, however,
folk dont seem to want to take heed of
the experience of others but must test it
out for themselves.. Its not all gold that
glitters in the city any more than in the
countryside, and the problems of the
larger centres are neither few nor easily
solved,
BY way of stirring up a little interest
in somewhat sluggish causes the Grits
and the Tories are putting on a short
series of picnics and community gather-
ings, where party leaders are the speak-
ers. A union of these 2 parties at these
talk.fests might make more interesting
programs and also prove that neither
were able to paint as pretty political
pictures jointly as when tackling
the job singly, Electors rather relish
the politicians who give credit when itis
due, irrespective of party lines, and do
not condone crokedness in their own
sheepfold while they are red hot to con-
demn it in the other fellows, The old

mire in lependent thinking and check up
doings of their party that they do not
agree'with. That's the way to purify
polities and keep the standard beyond
reproach. The good of the people as a
whole and the betterment of community
interests is what is needed no matter
who rules at Ottawa or Totonto, and
those who play false to the bast interests
of the country should be shown to the
door and perhaps helped out with the
toe of a boot as a hint to them and those
who look on.
Mantaa practice of speaking well of
your .neighbors and your community
Nothing sills out brotherliness quicker
than commuuicy spats and refusal to
ipaak or chum with the folk in your
neighborhood. Nobody wants to be
1 sided up with the scandals or failures
of people. Plain speech and good back-
bone, with a willingness to forgive and
forget are often traits of character posses-
sed by real men and women. The nar-
row, fault finding. pessamistic people
who always see the bad and seldom the
good side are dead weight for any local-
ity to carry. Boost everything that is
worthy and forget that you are the only
pebble on the beach
Story Worth Remembering
"THE LONG AND THE
SHORT OF IT."
Mrs. Mack had moved into a new
neigborhood. Next door lived a lit-
tletle
dot of a women, with a six-foot
husband. The little wife had eyes
that looked as if tears were never far
away ; the pallid face that accom-
panies fear ; and a timid, shrinking
manner.
Mrs. Mack tried to be friendly. The
neighbor was grateful but uncom-
municative. The "run-in•and-see-me"
invitations of the neighbors were
never extended.
The explanation came very shortly,
as the six-footer lurched down the
street and staggered into the horse,
banging the door after him.
UNAVOIDLeD LISTENING IN
Loud talking followed—though
only one voice was audible—Louder—
Angrier.—Then the crash 1 crash 1
crash 1 of furniture and crockery.
To Mre. Mack, tense and nervous,
and boiling over with wrath and sym-
pathy, it seemed an eteloity before
silence fell.
No—she dare not go in to comfort
tha terror-stricken little woman, who
tried to hide her shame from all eyes ;
but that night—and many subsequent
nights—Mrs. Mack relieved her over-
wrought nerves by telling her good
man what she'd like to do to that six-
footer, and the whole iniquitous drink
traffic.
A REVOLUTION
Mrs. Mack moved to another part
of the city and lost sight of her sor-
rowful neighbor. The war came—
then Prohibition.
Within the laat six months Mrs,
Mack was in a city store, when she
found herself side by side with that
little dot of a woman. With her was
the six-footer, but so changed be
would have been unrecognized but for
his tiny partner.
And they were together 1—a thing
none of the old neighbors had ever
seen 1
As they shopped he deffered to her
opinions. She looked so sweet and
cheery and happy and he ao proud of
her, Mrs, Mack quiteforgot the men-
tal thrashings she had time and again
administered to him.
"Come and see us—do some. We
have a business and a house of our
own now, and are getting on well,"
said the small matron. Here followed
directions as to location. -
This is an actual occurrence in every
particular, Before Prohibition this
couple owned nothing, No one was
ever invited to call—for wbo would de-
sire company when every day was a
tragedy ?

Cutting of all wheat is expected to begin within
about a week, says a report of the Ontario
Department of Agriculture, and as a rule fall
wheat is looking very promising. Western reports
are also very encouraging, but just what the har-
vest is expected to be will not be generally known
until representatives of the three prairie Provin-
cial Governments and the two railroads meet in
Winnipeg to discuss the labor situation and the
best means of securing help to harvest whatever
crop there is. However, the crop reports issued to
date by the Agricultural Department of the Cana-
dian Pacific Railway have, been very optimistic
and this company is already gathering and distri-
buting equipment to various points in anticipation
of a heavy movement of harvest workers.
The movement of harvesters has developed into
quite a department in railroad transportation
offices. As once the movement' starts it must be
rushed through to completion as speedily and effec-
tively as possible, the attention of a large staff
of men is concentrated for nearly a month before,
during and for some time after the rush on assem-
bling equipment, distributing it to the various parts
of the country from whence the harvesters are
drawn, making up the special trails, securing
supplies for the lunch cars, and the hundred and
one things which have to be looked after in order
to ensure smooth running and of which the travel-
ler usually knows nothing and probably cares less;
During the last four years the Canadian Pacific
Railway has handled some 86,000 west -bound har-
vesters. Last year this Company inaugurated the

Interior view of Colonist car used on harvesters' triune
tounknown to excursionists and, although perhaps
not as a direct result of this innovation, over
26,000 men travelled in special trains' over Cana-
dian Pacific lines.
This year the Company is making practically
the same preparation as last. As soon as it is
known just how many are required to work in
the harvest the excursions will be arranged and
trains made up. The excursions originate from as
far east as the Maritimes and as far weat as the
border of Ontario, but all are of the same type
as far as rail equipment is concerned.
Colonist cars are used which afford comfortable
seating during the day, facilities .are afforded
those who wish to prepare their own meals in a
small kitchen at the end of each car, and at alight
bunks may be pulled down as an upper berth or
the seats extended to afford comfortable sleeping
quarters. The lunch counter car in which as many
as fifty men can take a meal at the same time
is an important section of the train. The travel-
ling harvester is sure of being able to secure a
meal to suit his purse and of the food supplied
him being of good quality and served in a sani-
tary manner. Last year this department on Cana-
dian Pacific lines served over two hundred thou-
sand meals, and the experiment was so much appre-
ciated, and proved such a success that it has now
became a regular institution.
Old timers travelling west now -a -days regard
the trip as a holiday and the number of women
and children who have been seen travelling with
the harvesters since the standard of service ren-
dered has been what it now is, has increased to
a remarkable demo.
