seventeen -Tear -old Aviator.
Great Britain's youngest air pilot,
Robin T. E. Sanders -Clark received
the Royal Aero Club certificate. He
bas done over 70 hours' fying. The
youth declared that it was the sight
of Sir Alan Cobham landing on the
Thames two years ago that led him
to take up aviation.. He was then a
scholar at Malvern Collage,
Flying, he thinks, is safer than
motoring. He wouldnot drive a car
through London, he says, if he were
paid, "but dying Is all right." He
hopes to talte up aviatioh as a, career.

LAND OF BAD DEBTS.
'r'orerls at Costly Tours . and Lavish
:sp rending by Native Princes.
The news of the `3ankruptcy pro-
sedrugs against Prince Victor of
:troch Behar has led Indian papers to
erotest against the practice of weal-
hy rulers making periodical visits to
riurope with the consequent neglect
f their states and huge costs which
rave to be borne from state revenue.
erince Victor of Coach Behar admit -
:ed owing $100,000 in India.
Owing to the system of long credit
which is extended by all firms in
India to wealthy Indians and, Euro-
peans alike, there have been many
eases of firms becoming bankrupt
through bad debts.
The Indian newspapers are con-
cerned over the practice of rulers and
princes journeying to Europe for long
periods, during which they consider
it necessary tre engage whole suites of
rooms and flours of hotels for the
accommodation of their followers.
The purchase op luxurious motor-
cars, not singly but by dozens, is also
commented upon.
The tradesman, both Indian 'and
European, is defenceless against the
wealthy Indian who runs up bills and
refuses to pay,
There are, of course, some fabu-
lously wealthy Indian princes who
are familiar with the best that Eu-
rope can offer, and who tour the west
incognito and without a lavish dis-
play. It is against the others wio
consider that their 2aste and posit ori
it6crtitfes tire& io concrete agafnst the
luxury of their predecessor, that
there is growing discontent.
A HUGE INDUSTRY.
Publication of a Daily 'Newspaper
Ranks Among Big Businesses.
Figures from an advertisement, of
the Canadian Daily Newspaper's As-
sociation verify the fact that the pub-
lication of a daily newspaper ranks
among the big business enterprises of
the country, requiring the investment
of large sums of money, huge current
revenues and expert management.
There are ninety-seven daily news-
papers in Canada with a combined
circulation of 1,900,000 copies a day
—one for every four persons. In. con-
nection with the Industry, the Cana-
dian Daily, Newspapers Association
has published the following figures;
It gives employment to more than.
25,000 persons.
It pays salaries and wages over
$15,0.00,000 annually.
It buys raw newsprint to a va:ue
in excess of $8,000,000, every dollar
of which•la spent in Canada.
It has more than $40,000,000 in-
vested in buildings and equipment.
It is estimated that close to $750,-
000 a week—at least $85,000,000 a
year—is needed to keep these daily
newspapers in operation.
Beards Take a Rest.
Shaving does, not iuc'rease the rate
of growth of the beard. This has
been proved by Dr. Mildred Trotter,
says Tit -Bits, after making precise
measurements of beard shavings sup-
plied by four students over a period
of nine months.
More than 25,000 hairs were tak-
en, cut at Intervals of from twelve to
ninety-six hours. One hundred hairs
from each sample were, measured
with a microscope, and it was found
that the longer the period over which
the hair is permitted to grow, the
slower is the increase in length from
day to day,
The hair does not grow continu-
ously, but in spurts, each of which is
followed by a short rest,
Students at "Varsity."
Tire University of Toronto, or
"Varsity" as it is popularly called,
has the largest attendance of stu-
dents among the Canadian unieerei-
ties, with a total registration of 5,029
