These uncompleted calls are 'a serious matter. They mean two million minutes a day wasted -- congestion of traffic -- constant irritation a handicap to efficient service. Some of these cannot be .avoided. and some of them are due to our own errors; and many of them are due to lack of co-operation by the other two partite. *We are constantly reducing our own errors and we are constantly striving to give the best possible telephone service at lowest possible cost. .As part•of this effort we are now giving publicity to common faults in telephone usage in the hope that there may bg mutual endeavour to secure and maintain maxtmuan efficiency.

Those of>'us' who :spend -only a couple of weeks • in holidaying find it "difficult enough to settle down to the daily routine afterward, how much more difficult it must seem • to both teach- er and pupil after having been free from the yoke Lor a couple of months. Many teachers are glad to :return to their work after the vacation per- iod; they io ; t _ y ha vo ou,joyed their holiday buts the novelty hasworn off before it is all over and they welcome the return to stated hours of work,' and` definite tasks. But ,still the ad- jgstments must bo made; new pupils must be studied and in case of a change of school, they must !become accustmned'to an entirely new envir- onment Many -a Teacher' isvery lonely on coming into a new com- mnunity. They miss their old friends and often feel that they are being apprized, perhaps,_ eritisised, and are self-conscious; and shy of those who wish to lie their friends. 'Mothers of school children can " help a new teacher wonderfully by being kind and considerate during these first weeks of their stay in the new com- munity. The new teacher should be given a chance to win his or her spurs before being judged. The pupil, whether a boy or girl, needs special consideration too, at this time. They are eager to return perhaps. They have had enough of, carefree holidaying and are looking forward to the companionship of school days. They are . planning to study harder this term' and have brightions iof future success.. In most case they have made an ad- vance.'and are in anew 'room, per- haps, a new class; anyway. They had become' tired of the did Lessons and, with the beautiful faith and optiniiism' of youth, are looking for new fields to conquor. But, not hav- ing aving old heads on their slim, young shoulders, they may not go about the task .of settling down to hard study in- the most approved adult manner. Patience, tact, understanding on the part of both teeacher and portent is required_ It takes a bit of time 'to get used to the new surroundings after the vacation time. Then some are going for the first time to High School or Collegiate. That is certainly crossing a rubicon, To the •Public school pupil the doors of the High school, open into an en- chantedpalace; they stop across the threshold, when the time conies for their entrance to that citidal of their dreams, with the mixed feelings of one entering into ` fairyland and a conqueror entering into the city .which his own prowess has won. Their expectations may not be ful- filled; they may become disillusion- ed, but they enter,with ahigh heart. and it is the wise parent who encour- ages the boy and girl to keep- that' high heart. The parent who knocks their children's castles • in the air, spoils all th'uir illusions and brings them down to earth with a hard thud, are robbing them of much that makes life happy and successful, A child's imagination should be en- couraged.

But when I returned 1 found her m'other.iri tears. This was her baby, now gone a bit beyondher immediate care, interested in many people and things outside the home, which had been her whole °world up to that time.. It was a bitter experience for. the mother, and mothers are all pret- ty much, alike. It is a wrench to have the little son or daughter start toschool, as that is the beginning of a new life for the child. But it must be; it is the way of all and the child must learn to walk alone; to meet his fellows; to, learn to give and take and train for the: great game of life The child who is -starting to school and the mother who sees, him go has the sympathy of all understanding people. May all the little tots just starting and all the lonely mothers have needed courage and may they never drift apart but'' always keep the path, between their hearts, worn with many 'passings to and fro. ..1 >' I ....

THE CAUSE OF FERMENTATION - O1 HONEY ' (Experimental Farms Note) Spoilage of extracted honey due' to fermentation and souring has be- come, particularly of recent years, a matter of concern to Canadian bee- keepers and others engaged in the handling and marketing of this pro- duct. In former: years fermentation, though not unknown to'.honey pro- ducers, did not present the menace it now does as long as relatively little of the honey erop was held over from one season to the next. Recent years however, have witnesesd in Canada an increased production of honey, while consumption has become less seasonal in nature with the result that honey, in general; is now held for longer periods of storage than formerly. Consequently spoilage through fermentation is now being encountered to such an extent that it. is' one of the most serious problems facing these 'engaged in the honey industry and the source of consired- able financial losses. For the past two years the Divis- ion of Bacteriology, Central Exper- imental Farm, has been conducting investigations on honey feriientaeion. the first phages of which have been concerned with the organisms caus- ing' the, spoilage and their possible sources. In all caste yeasts have been tfound to be responsible, four different types having been isolated from the samples of fermented hon- ey examined.. These yeasts were found to be particularly sugar -toler- ant varieties, capable of growing in high concentrations of sugar solu- tions which would prevent the growth of ordinary yeasts. Examination of the nectar of 34 varieties of flowers' commonly visit- ed by bees during the season resulted in the. isolation of 11 varieties of yeasts all capable of fermenting honey. Of these, two. were identical with yeasts actually found in fer- mented honey. lVforeover, a study made of hive nectar from the apiary of the Central Experimental Farm revealed an early and constant in- fection of the nectar by sugar -toler- ant yeasts, some of which correspond, with those isolated from flowers, one being, in addition, a variety found in fermented honey. That honey may be infected by yeasts at the time of extraction was shownbytette made in the extract- ing house • From various containers used for handling honey, yeasts caus- ing fermentation were: isolated, like- wise from the air. Itis therefore within the power of the beekeeper to keep out at least a, part of the con- tamiation of extracted honey by. exercising precautions at the time of extraction and by insuring that all honey containers and utensils are thoroughly sterilized before use. Further studies 'in, the subject of fertnentation are in progress, A. G. Lockheed, Dominion Ague- uitural Bacteriologist. CROP REPORT The following .report was sent out last week by the.

Phe yield is slight- ly 'better light-ly'better than was expected, with fair grades. In . Quebec Provinces warmer weather and scattered light rains during the past ween have ben- efited all crops, grain crops are re- ported from fair to good. In -Ontario threshing is general, with weather conditions excellent. Pall wheat has yielded from 30 to 35 bushels to the acre In the Maritime Provinces weatherconditions of 'late have been very favourable. and the general out- look eery all crops is ,satisfactory. In British Columbia recent rains' have been beneficial to ail crops. Province of Ontario Fall wheat was a good crop. Par- ley is practically all out and is ex- pected to yield an average crop.
