No woman, I am siire, could ever
understand Lawrence. Even to his
mother lte is an enigma.
I remember her when she came to
tea at our flat in London one after-
noon just before she left for the
Oltinene-Tibetan frontier, 'where she
intended to spend the rest of her days
living with another son who is a medi-
cal missionary.
She was a typical English lady, a
little softer and a little more cultured
than many. rather thin, slightly taller
than her son. Her hair was grey.
She had twinkling, merry, blue eyes,
with a touch of sadness in them,
"She had lost her husband many
years before, and afterwards during
the war her two eldest sons had been
killed, Col. Lawrence once remarked
to me that those two were by far the
ablest men in the family. Her face
was strong .with some of the iron le•
termination that yen see in Colonel
Lawrence's face. She was just what
you would want the mother of such
a man to be.
She said that she herself had never
been quite able to fathom her son
"T. E." or "Ned," as his family awl
childhood associates called him. He
had always led a topsy-turvy life, was
something of a Bedouin at heart, and
she never had the slightest idea what
he was going to do next,
"As a boy he was always climbing
to dangerous heights where he should
not go, He would go off on long,
lonely walking tours without any

conflict (1) With his fellow -practition-

Marshall could never mention his

he looked upon Lawrence as a strange

man equally brilliant as a scholar,
military strategist, and leader of men.
Several times Marshall remarked to
me that Lawrence's one desire now

Saskatchewan,
"The vital 'statistics history in the

would appear to indicate that 'the,
rural districts have at present a
higher death rate than the cities," he
writes.- "This, however, did not ob-

Previous to 1900 the mortality rate
in rural districts was only about three-
fourths that of the cities; recently it
has been 8 or 10 per cent. higher"
The most probable explanation, he
suggests, is that "there is more effec-
tive, continuous and . organized pro-
tection of health in pities than in rural
districts."
Characterizing the County Health
Unit as "the greatest single medium
for the advancement of public health
to -day," he writes as follows:
"We are hoping to have at least
four of these full-time health distrlcte
in operation this year, and our objec-
tive will not be reached until there
are at least 26 such districts estab-
lished.

to do with the success of 'the hatch.
Mr. F. 0. Elford, Dominion Poultry
Husbandman, in Circular 71, entitled
"Artificial incubation," points out
that the fresiter the egg the better -the
chances of a good hatch. Allowing
broody hens to sit on the eggs before
they aro gathered is a matter of great
importance, nor should the eggs be
allowed to become chilled.. If the
eggs are to be kept several days be-
fore incubation, it is recommended
that they be kept in a covered con-
tainer and not in au open basket,
which allows too much evaporation.
For best results the eggs -should be
kept in a fairly even temperature of
from fifty to sixty degrees; It is im-
portant to select only normal'. eggs

unusually short, or rough or thin in

Purposes than hatching. hough hand
ling is also a cause of disappointment,
