"Our 'Coast is the busiest coast in the world, and it is a dangerous coast, The Royal National Lifeboat Institu- tion wits establisbed in 1824. At that time there were on the coast some 89 lifeboats, the fruit of private benevo., Immo, 'without Permanent support, public or private, the crews without organization or training or reward, "To -day the coast le guarded by 207 lifeboats, of which 99 are motor lifeboats, the latest product of the development of science In boat build- ing ui d-ing and engine construction;R87 are self-righting lifeboats, and 61 are of the non -self-righting type, either the Watson or the Liverpool kind, each boat being eelee:ed by the crew after careful examination by a deputation appointed by them. • Something like 8,000 men are trained to man these boats, and an- other 8,000 men -and women -are trained to launch them. They are all volunteers; but the Institution re- wards them for every launch in which they take part, whether it is success- ful or not, 'It compensates them for . injury, and if they lose their lives it provides pensions for the widows and depen- dent children and relatives.

One is on Bardsey Island, where theh e t r e keepers s g etenjoY- P went and health from playing over Ile nine holes, The roof of a London parish hall has a cricket pitch, a tennis court, goal -posts for football and hockey, and also a bandstand, while a world- famous West -end store has a minia- ture golf course on its roof. Situated on top of Adelaide House, London, is an eighteen -hole putting green 220 feet above street level. In close proximity is a large school with a orloket pitch on its roof. Honolulu possesses one of the world's gpeerest sports grounds in the Hole -in -One Golf Club, with its nine- teenth hole tee on the edge of a live volcano; while an equally strange golf course Is that at Jinja, on Lake Victoria, over which the Prince of Wales recently played, The hippopo- tamus is such a frequent visitor that balls may be removed from its tracks without penalty. A nine -hole puttingcourse in a New York recreation ground, with bunkers and hazards consisting of broken drain -pipes; old gas fittings, and so on, takes some beating for queerness.

No grant or subsidy from parliament is involved. It is entirely a matter of authority to offer new shares for purchase by investors, from time to tints in the. future as new capital is 'required for the growth of the system; There are three reasons why the telephone company is asking parliament for this authority. Each of these reasons is important. the first reason The telephone system cannot extend td meet the growth of the country unless there is a • steady supply of new capital year after year. IN a progressive country like Canada the telephone system never stands still. Each year there are thousands of new telephones in new homes and• offices, 111er the next five years the definite needs which the system is under public obligation to meet mean spending over $120,000,000 in new plant. Year after year, in good times and bad, new money is needed for more telephones if the system is to keep pace with the country. And of this honey a great part can be supplied only through the pur- chase of new shares by investors. the second reason Necessary plans cannot be made unless there is assurance that money may be obtained in the future to complete them. TN the telephone business it is essential that plana be made for years ahead. There must be cables and conduits and central ex- changes before new telephones can go in. To wait until people are clamoring for service is too late. Such projects in the past have been undertaken be- cause the company has been confident of securing Money from investors to put the new equipment into full service. But if the company is not able even to approach in- vestors, its assurance vanishes and to prepare for the future becomes impossible. The telephone system does not need, and will not seek, all the seventy-five million` of new capital pro- vided for in its ameiitiment now, nor next year, nor the year after. It may not need it all for a good many years. But it does need now the assurance that it will be able in the future to go into the market for new money when it is required. the third reason The company's present authority to seek new capital is almost exhausted. WHEN the telephone company began in 1880 it '� vv had authority to sell shares to investors up to half a million dollars, but with the growth of the 'system this authority has been extended by parlia. meat, This has happened, on an average, every eight years since 1880. The last amendriaent by parliament was in 1920. Another amendmentis necessary now be- cause, of the seventy -.five million of shares set in 1920, less thorn ten'mi[lion now remain for the com- pany to offer to investors. With over $120,000,000 to be spent during the next five years -a substantial part of which must be pro- vided by sale of new shares -this margin of less than ten million represents -neither the steady supply of new capital nor the .assaaance of the future which the company must have to serve the public with efficiency. eight years from now T F there had not been an amendment in 1920 with 4. the right to raise new capital, ,Ontario and Quebec today would be struggling with a'telephone system so hopelessly behind public requirements that all branches of business would puffer. The telephone company does not want that state of affairs to prevail eight years from now. The Bill is to prevent it. aoa When a mother detects' the writh Ings and fretting of a child that worms are troubling it, she can 'pro- ure no better remedy than Miller's Worm Powders; which' are guaran- teed to totally expel worms form the system.

In onecase is a guitar said to have been presented by Mary Queen of Scots to her minstrel -and favorite Rizzio.

One of the gems of the collection isa elavycytheritam, or upright spin- et, which dates from the end of the fifteenth century, and is believed to be the oldest keyboard instrument in existence- • It is of Italian origin, and its woodwork is decorated with the carv- ing and painting of mediaeval masters, Jelly -Fish Mystery. Where do' the jelly -fish that -are to be found swimming about In the huge fresh -water tank which houses the large Victoria 11.egia lily in the Bo- tanical Gardens, London, come from? They were first observed In 1880 and their appearance was a mystery. For three years they inhabited the tank, and then, in 1888, they dis- appeared as suddenly as they had come. It was thought at first that the draining of the tank for six. months in the year explained the mystery, for no jelly -fish like 'being out of water. Now, after an absence of forty-five-- years, orty-five"years, the jelly -fish are once more swimming in the tank in whioh: they. were first found. This family of jelly- fish has never been found at any oth- er place except Regent's Park. Britain Shows the Way.
