people who wish to convat thein, in-

The car and golf Week -end habit,
a West End estate' agent told a re
porter, has played a big ,part In cre-
ating the demand, Many people find
seaside resorts—and more particular-

on Saturdays and. Sundays to be real-

There has been an increasing de

hotels. Any estate that is conven-
iently situated for golf or can provide
good fishing and shooting is eagerly
looked for.
Such hotels are :to be found all
round London and they appear to do
very well, They started when estates
had to be broken up through heavy
taxation after the war and when, in
many cases, the mansions were diffii-
cult to sell.
Large estates, as well as small,
have been disposed of in this way.
Early in the spring the Great West-
ern Railway Company took over the
Dartmoor llouse that had once be-
longed to the late Lord Hambledon
for conversion, into a modern holiday
hotel. •

The rapidly proceeding conversion
of country houses into private hotels
may be welcomed as an agreeable so-
lotion of a rather urgent problem.
Owing to changed conditions of liv-
ing and, above all; to heavy taxation
the large country house has in most
eases become an- embarrassment to
its owners, Unable either to live in
it or to And a tenant, ' ,hey have been
faced with the alternative of watching
, the gradual decay of a stately home
or. breaking u an historic estate' to
make way for hungalloid growths.
And to any lover of England'. either

LITTLE FOXES.
Playtime and � School isle In the
r.
y,,ri,.,w•,,... Woodlands..
Pox cubs, • sunning themselves out-
side their'den on .a June day, gam-
bolling in' the herbage, and running
races round tree -trunks, make per-
haps the pre;tiest wild -animal picture
, in our land, writes Marcus -Wood-
land in an Old Country paper.
The vixen is a model of patience
when her cubs scramble 'about her
back, snap at heti brush, and tumble
all over her in their play. Runnnb
with them, she teaches them how to
a parry her snaps. When they tire of
their gambols, she leads them to a
stream for a cooling drink.
As the cubs begin to be good run-
ners, she changes their nursery. A.
favorite retreat is a quiet, sunny
place in the woods near a rabbit bur-
. row, or by a drain in a ditch, a place
of refuge. Or a field of standing corn
may be chosen, a perfect sanctuary. I
Year after year the vixen leads her
successive families to the same tried
and trusty haunts.
The cubs begin hunting on their
own account by tackling mice, play-
ing pitch -and -toss with moles, and
stalking birds and . young rabbits,:
Once having caught' a rabbit, the cub
ever after prefers a meal of .its own
killing even to •a plump pheasant or
duck brought home by the vixen.
Poor Kids.
A story has been told of a school
teacher in one of the poorest quarters
of London.
The girls in her Class came from
families who could barely struggle
along in life, -and she used to devise
all sorts of ways of entertaining her
pathetic little chargee
"Now," she said onJ clay, "we will
pretend we are an a grassy field."
Instantly, to her astonishment,
most of the children lined themselves
against the walls of the room.
"But don't you know' what grass
is for?" she :exclaimed.'
The reply was instantaneous.
"Yes, teacher," said one child; "it's
what you has to keep off of!"
New Arrangements.
Arrangements have been made be-
tween the Compagnie Internationale
des Wagons -Lits et des Graads Fx _
press Europeans and the Canadian
Pacific Express Co. for a dirsct ex-
press, service from all European coun-
tries to Canada. Parcels handed in at
any of the offices of the Compagnie
Internationale throughout Europe
will be forwarded direct to points
where the- Canadian Pacific Express
maintain receiving offices, for ship-
ment to Canadian destination.

A' clergyman noticed a new face
among his congregation and went fqr-
ward to weloorne the young woman
after the service.
"If you give me your name and
address," he said, "VII call and see.

'Oh,' it's all right," was the reply,
"I've got a young man already."
