Many homes in the different towns and cities adjacent have been bereft. Dr. R. A. Worthington, son of Mrs. (Dr.) Worthington of town, has pas- sed the Medical Council examination recently held at Edmonton and is now licensed t e practice medicine and surgery. He has commenced practice at Canmore, Alberta. • TOBI7RMORY MEN ATTACKED BY BEAR A casual short-cut through a wood Iot a mile and a half from Tobermory was the prelude to a thrilling adven- ture for three men 'recently. Tramp ing through the woods with his dog Freddie Watson stumbled on the den of three hibernating bears, Unable to cope with them himself he sped to the nearest home and enlisted the aid of three stalwarts, Tack Wyoneh, Bob Bartley. and Alex Martin, who sallied Earth to see what they could see, As soon as their den was dis- covered the two -year -cubs scrambled. out and up the nearest tree with more speed than grace. Unable to take the half-grown youngsters alive, as first intended, the hunters' were forced to shoot them from the tree on which they had. taken a lease. As mamma bear came ambling from her lair to investigate the rumpus the sad dis- covery was made that only one shell remained With which to stop her -which it didn't. Mortally wounded, but still undefeated, the angry bear charged first one andthen another of the ' hard-pressed hunters ' now armed with only a club, an are and in empty rifle. But numbers finally told. Weak 'frail loss of blood and blinded by the rain of blows, she crashed into a tree and lay still. AIR CONDITIONING The earliest patentee of air con- ditioning was M. Caere. He is said to have gained the idea from one M. Rosen, a close friend of the Ameri- can Dr. John Gerrie who made and patented the first ice -machine, Dr. Gorrie's early life is shrouded in mystery. One fall day in 1803 or 1804, a dour Scotsman, dressed in the uniform of a Spanish officer, brought to Charleston, South Carolina, a fas- cinating young woman and her baby, Captain Gerrie, as he called himself, let it be known that the womanwas his wife and that the baby Was his first-born. , i , }illi Wise persons in the town doubted the etory particularly since the Cap- tain soon vanished never to return, This doubt was increased when lib- era! supplies of money came from abreact to support the deserted wife and child. These supplies continued until the son's education . was com- pleted. His mother brought the boy up carefully and lelthough she never gave any hint of her past history she always had the respect of the community in which she lived. The prevailing story was that the boy was of royal parentage. Young John Gerrie chose medicine as his profession and was graduated in New York in 1833. He 'finally settled in Apalachicola, a frontier town in Florida, where he fought malaria, yellow fever and the com- mon plagues 01 the time. He was not only a clever and original phys- ician but he possessed inventive gee- ius of ne mean order.. He advocated drainage of swamps for the preven- tion 01 malaria; he thought that per- sons who slept under netting would escape the disease. (So they would, because they would thus avoid being bitten by mosquitoes.) Dr. `Gerrie invented and' patented the first ice machine and if he had 'lived long enough—he died at 52—he would ea- suredly have been the pioneer of air' conditioning 0f hospitals and .build- tngs. Dr. Gorrie's 'mother lived long en- ough, to see het .son successful, Her grandson, also John Goerie, was kilI- ed in the Civil War, TBE CLINTONNEWS-RECORD PAGE ..1n.,,,_1,4.0.1•01.o...,1,=•a.,.1_, ,M.11,04=1.,ire„_o1•14.11•111110.1....,..04/..1.•1„_1_,.1011., .;, INTERNATIONAL.

Maclaren, B.S.A., Director oe Farm Training tinder the Dominion Provincial Youth Training, has avail- able 20 specially picked youths, who although they have had no farm, ex- perience, are anxious to -work on On - teeth farms. Since last October, Mr. Maelaren has placed 270 boys on farms. Last week he visited 21 boys placed on Elgin county farms and found that 14 had signed year agreements with their employers, Mr. Maclaren explains that the boys go out on a month's trial at $10. and if they prove satisfactory are then hired by the farmer at a yearly wage of $120 to $200. These 'boys are all interviewed and approved by Mr. Maclaren and his assistant Barry Young before beim; placed on the list of available boys. Any Ontario farmers wishing to employ a lad under this scheme, end boys aged 10. to 26 who would like to go on a farm, should write MI - mediately .to A.

If one wants to earn $50, $75,$100 a week, one must be a large and visible contributor to - sales and profits. In short one mush be a salesmalt by either the spoken, or the written word. The main question, to be asked by many is, "What in come do I require or am after?" And if the answer is, "$50, $75, $100 a. week", thenone must become a sales-• man, One must forget that "Oh, but:.

Double exposure does the job. CCIDIINTAL double'exposures, 1"� two pictures on one film, spoil many snapshots, though once in a while the result is amusing: But double .exposure can also be used to producetrick pictures that astonish and battle yohr friends. All you need is a firm support for your camera, and a black back- ground.`Sueh a background is easy to obtain,indoors at night if. you have a broad doorway between two rooms.' Simply pose your subject. before the open doorway, with the room back of him dark. See diagram. Two amateur "flood" bulbs in cardboard reflectors will provide enough light for box camera snap- shots, if high speed film is used. Place them as shown in the diagram,. keeping light out of the far room. Tho trick_ picture shown above—. a 'man argaing with himself—was made by double exposure. First, he sat down on one side of the card table, and one picture was snapped. Then he walked around to the other side of the table and posed for a sec- ond snapshot. Naturally, the film was not wound until after the sec; and exposure, and the camera' was not moved. If the camera had moved, the card table would Have A black background is needed` for double -exposure trick pictures: like this one. To get it, pose sub- jects before door of darkened room.

"Ghost" pictures are produced by underexposure- (far the ghost), and about the simplest way to achieve this is to reduce the light by nteviag it farther from the subject. Thus, ie We had wanted the man standing to - appear transparent and "ghostly," we could have moved ,our photo, lights two to three feet farther away' from him before making the second snapshot.
