Af- ter a few seconds had passed, he re- marked: "You didn't bow to him." "You mean the blind man?" "Yes." "But why should I have bowed to hien?" "Because one should always bow to people when one gives them charity." "But in this ease," 1 protested, "since the man was blind..." But my grandfather had an answer for everything. And now, as I think hack, his answer seems to have been. an especially good one. He said: "Yes, but supposing he was only pre- tending to be blind?"

Yours sincerely, PERCY HOWE Dear Sir—I notice in yo\u' paper 1581 week about hockey players hav- ing played each other on 3 different teams this season. I think this heats it: "Holding two jobs at once is a practice not condoned in the best of circles, but hockey players are get - tog away with it more and more. This season has seen more puck - chasers chasing more pucks in more circuits than you 'could shake a hockey stick at. Joe Puckchaser will sell his services to as many as two and three teams, and while we don't begrudge him the extra lettuce, the thing doesn't just seem right some- how, There was an instance of it not long ago in the first game of the Ontario senior finals between 'Marl- boros and Buffalo-Ankertte Bisons, Right after the game, without even taking off then' skates several or. the Dukes put leather skate -guards on, hopped into a bus and whipped over to the Ravius rink, where they Jumped into the line-up of the Royal Canadian Air Force team, which was playing a mercantile -play-off.

"There Was another ezamlhle of it when Sutton Greenshirts defeated Powassan Hawks in the 0.11.A. int- ermediate "B" play-offs. Several of the Greenies had played just the night previous for Toronto mercant- ile teams. Now this mercantile lea- gue is not organized hockey. It is outside the bounds and not within the jurisdiction of the 0.:1.1. A. But apparently the 0,11.A. has 110 me- tro]. over its players. and they are free to play in as lean) outlaw gues as their legs can stand. This is sometimes a good thing for the pocketbook but a hockey player is not a machine.

"Why didn't you stop - the horse?" Mr. Shaw asked the farmer after stopping „his car. "O11, he's all right; he's on his way hone, thee -quarters of a mile up the road; he's just delivered the boy to school," replied the farms nonchad- only, "1 suppose you're going to tell me now that the horse calls for the boy at. 4 o'clock," said .kir. Shaw, "That's exactly what he does," answered the farmer. "In the morning at the school the -boy slaps hint ontheflank and he goes home. and at 3.45 is the afternoon they do the same at ,home to start the horse off the same way on his journey to school to get the boy." "So that's it, is it?" replied the curiously puzzled 3Ii'. Shaw, "just like that!" "Just .like that.

Uruguay; the Central Railway, Argentina; the Sao Paulo Railway, Brazil; and the Tt•ensand- ian Railway, Mendoza, one of the highest railways in the world. The equipment is very Iight in weight, which appeals to engineers because it is all the easier to carry. When the Southern Railway of Buenos Aires. for example, recently adopted Diesel coaches. it was esti- mated that the weight of d pass- enger coaches was saved on a total of 10; of this type.
