The learned Bishop has not one word of appreciation for Sir Henry Thorn- ton and, he has certainly none for the people of Mexico, who accordion tit,iti, the judgment of His Holiness, Popv Pins Iith, "are anathem and :wore than that," Bishop Fallon takee -this personal incident of Sir Henry 'Th4its tun's visit to Mexico—over soltich *c- laim. King informs us his gonernlienr had no control—to push into oue:face the old wedge of religious bitry, and the riot too promising facts of a 40 per cent. Roman Catholic p:opula- tion in this Dominion and who pay 40 per cent. of Sir Henry, Thornton's salary, something I hesitate tio,ebelieve. But not satisfied 'with magnifying the Roman catholic proportion of po- pulation, the Bishop becomes even more daring arid very much in the Spirit he alehorrs th others, insults the 6o per cent, of Pninestaint citizens by declaring'in these wotd--"His Holi ness, Pope Pius, slat, is the most ex- alted personage in the World." and he declared that Mexico and those who try to uplift the Mexicans are anathema. Now who could imagine the mighty but kindly disposed'Bishop would try s to stampede and belittle poor weak protestants to that entent? We 'who are not under thecontrol laws of His I-Ioliness Pope Pius Nth, are accord- ing to Bishop Fallon under a much less worthy and. exalted personage. On the one hand the Bishop is pro- tecting the Roinan Catholics of Can- ada on the authority of "the highest personage" he says, in the world, and '• on the other hand he is deliberately insulting all true Protestants in Can- ada. We protest, and suggest when Bishop Fallon desires to attack Sir Henry 'Thornton and the Protestant subjects Ofsthiss Dominion, he will not insist in tsing Mexican misrule as a pretense or so doing. .

Fitting monuments to four former I' Prime Ministers of Canada and a memento of the visit of the present British Premier, Rt. Hon..- Stanley Baldwin, have been set aside in the Rocky Mountains of Canada where a series of peaks have been officially named the Premier Group, and five of them have been named respectively, Mount Stanley Bald- win; Mt. Sir 'Wilfrid Laurier; Mt. Sir Mackenzie Bowell; Mt. Sir John Thompson and Mt. Sir John Abbott. The naming of a mountain after Premier Baldwin in honor of his visit to Canada during the Diamond jubilee year of Confederation was considered a fitting mark of the Dominion's esteem for him. These mountains lie within the territory skirted by the famous Triangle Tour of the Canadian National Railways, and to the westward of Mount Robson, highest peak in the Canadian Rockies. The peaks, several of which are snowclad, ie about ten miles south of the railway line which runs from Red Pass Junction to Prince Rupert and about ten miles westward of the Canadian National line to Vancou- ver. Their peaks can easily be seen by tourists travelling on either route to the Pacific Coast. A dozen or more peaks stretch across a territory which extends from the western boundores of Mount Ttelseon Park westward and south CO Ter- minate in the foothills of the Cariboo country. Mount Sir Wilfrid Laurier is one of the most picturesque of the group, rearing its peak 11,750 feet into the clouds. Mt. Sir John Thompson has an altitude of 11,250 feet, and Mt. Sir John Abbott the same. Mt. Mackenzie Bowen is 11,000 feet ir altitude. Slightly eastward and niter the Vancouver line of the Canadian National stands Mt. Stanley Baldwin which is visible front the station of Jackman. While these mountains h.avo not been surveyed officially, several of them have been climbed, the most recent ascents having been made by Mr. and Mrs. Don Munday of Vancouver. the home of Mr, and Mrs. John Ged- des at Belgrave, Mr. Earl Hislop of Craighearst is spending the Xmas holiday at the home of Mr...and:Mrs. Robert Shaw. -Mr. and, Mrs. John Anger of Owen Sound spent the week -end at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Alex, McGee.

Tit host is always the e,,Se'Spest in the epd, Dont be put off br e'tore kcepers,'Insist on Selecting ovvEl food and if you can't get it one place go to another, Buying Meat When choosing meat, see that the meat is deep red in culor, firm and free from all odors. The fat shonld be of a meanly color.not discolored. Pork and veal are pale pink in color with very white fat. ilf the fat is the least bit discolored iris not fresh. A good tip is to hang meat up directly it is bought. Moat left 'lying on it plate FCo/1 loses its flavor. Melt should never be eaten unless perfectly fresh. A. sure way to test fish is to hold it between your thumb and first finger, If it is dented, the fish is flabby and stale, In fresh fish the gills are red, the eyes bright and the scales glisten- ing. Vegetables and Produce • Vegetables should be bought daily. All. Imesesvives know that cabbage, cauliflower and lettuce should be crisp and green. Nothing is more tasteless than stale vegetables, nor more wasteful. See that root vege- tables have no spade cuts. Potatoes should be plump and firm. Do not accept onions or cucumbers if the skins are shrivelled. Dairy produce should be bought in small quantities. You can be pretty sure of all milk purchased nowadays. Butter should be dry and the same color all the 'way through. If it is mottled send it back. Keeping Things Fresh Having made sure everything is' fresh when bought, the next step is to make sure it remains fresh. A good plan is to have a number of screw -cap glass jars. For such dry goods as rice, tapioca, sugar, tea and coffee they are 'excellent. Coffee should be kept airtight to hold its flavor. To get best results from coffee have it freshly ground. If coffee is lumpy and rolled into balls it is no longer. fresh. HOMEMAKING AN ART 'The keeping of a home can be made a real profession, and an interesting one. It calls for intelligence, good brainwork, efficiency, the skillful hand and the artistic eye, and, it should be possible for a clever young woman to "climb" in that profession as well as in any other, from, say, a maid's dut- ies to some highly capable person who makes the care of other people's hom- es her art. This with an attendant steady uplift of salary, and perhaps more important, is status. The latter is perhaps the root of the whole matter. Housework as a means of livelihood has too long been looked down upon, for what reason it is difficult to say. There is surely no n.nnni:n4nonntannonfnmitta,„_,....,„ difference between miming ewre of a homQ inader the supervision of a wo roan and taking care of a sot of b whit under soperviewit of another. In this day of broadmindedness it is high time we raised the status of tilt homes makiest job to its rightful place as One of the most useful and Popular professions for women, MAGISTRATE SCORES 1 ATTITUDE OF SOME A little talk on Christian charity and brotherly love was given by Magistrate Jeffs in police cottis at Hamilton the other day, 'when Joon Boyce, the father of seven elsildree, was charged with not being a fit per- son to have custody of his, children. The case was dismissed, Mrs, Boyce is in the hospital and the father is trying to care for the children as best he can, Boyce told the Magistrate. Social service work- ers informed the cadi that the home was dirty, the children were not properly cared for and that Boyce wouldn't work. "It's just a case of some spiteful neighbors," declared Boyce, A representative of 'a church So- ciety told of visiting the home on several occasions and, stated that e place was dirty and, unfit for childien to live in. "Which would you consider the more Christian act?" asked the mag- istrate. "Going in there yourself and cleaning up the place and children, or reporting the matter to the Chil- dren's Aid Society and having the children taken away while the mother is in the hospital?" The church worker stated that she did not think it her place to go in and clean up the house. "There are a lot, of people who have those views," nodded the cadi. Another witness, a kindly soul, from Glasgow, entered the dock with one of the Boyce kiddies in her arms. I "This lady is taking care of the twins," said Boyce. "She came and cleaned up the house and looked afa ter the youngsters." "That is real Christian charity," beamed the magistrate. "You have done a fine thing by taking care of the twins without waiting for any or-' ganization to step in. I cannot take these children away' on this evidence, Mr. Burns, The case is dismissed.
