Mr. Coolidge .had a stenographer
who was a most efficient person.' She
was just as beautiful as she was effi
tient. Ono day;when the President
rang for her she sat down beside his
desk, pad on her knee, pencil poised
ready for. the foist word. There was
a wee; This did not surprise her,
because frequently the President tools
a minute to think overwhat he wanted
to :dictate.
"Young- lady,"- the President said,
"you are a very comely person -well -
formed -pleasing of complexion. You
must find favor in many people's eyes."
He: paused.. The stenographer be-
came a little nerveus. During the
long jie;:iod she had worked for Mr.
Coolidge she had never had any m-
timation that he ever let his affections
stray and the was not sure what was
coming next.
The President noticed her flush and
chuckled:
"I'm being diplomatic. I'm. just put-
ting you in a good humor before telling
you to be a little more careful about
your spelling." -from the "Paris

The emphatic 'decision of the two
great branches -of the Scottish Church
to accept the overtures -which pledge
them to finite, •though confidently
expected in view of the approval of
the congregations throughout the
land, is none the less momentous and
opoch-making. The development ' of
'the idea of re -union has coincided with
a changing and a broadening concep-
tion of ,religion itself. Tho rigid ad-
herence to points of difference that
have kept the Churches' apart has
given way to a fuller recognition .of
the nmee vital p1'incinles on which
they are at one. We have reached a
stage when in religious and social af-

Pioneers' Needed
Toronto Telegram (Incl Cons.):
Canada's crying need is not more col-
lege g'aduates. It is more pioneers.
Canada has natural resourced to be
cleveloifed. But those natural resources
cannot be developed by men in search
of white collar jobs. Of the gradua-
tion class of Agricultural College, not
one student went back to the farm.
Of the present graduating classes of
Ontario's universities, how many will
go back to work? It is safe to say
that the proportion, will be very small.
For university training,' with, all its
advantages, has a' tendency to breed
contempt for that variety ,of toil that
is allied to a . suit of overalls and a

Election Pledges
London Evening Standard (Ind.
cons.): There is rather too much of
a tendency in the average voter, when
polling -day bas been reached, to re-
gard the result in the light of the
result of a sporting contest. This

eledtion aproaches. We shall make
a great mistake if we permit our:
selves to fall into that frame of mind
now. The pledges that have been
giveni•.must be remembered, and those
who have given them must be re
minded 'of them, until they have been
euly and securely implemented.
