Sir Herbert, in ''addre:eslu;;; the shareholders, poirrtecl out. that in spite of the losses incurred by thou- sands of investors throughout Can- ada and the United States, the strength or the business structure is suck that there is no reason to look forward to more than a moderato re- cession in business during 1930. Dealing with conditions in Canada, Sir Herbert stressed the fact that neither the prospects in foreign trade nor the situation in Canadian indus- try, trade rand agriculture, warrant pessimism concerning the outlook for the coming year. Industrial Advisory Council, After dwelling on the success ob- tained by President Hoover in secur- ing the active co-operation of indus- trial leadership throughout the coun- try in the recent crisis, Sir Herbert urged that it would be to the advan- tage of Canada to establish a non- partisan Advisory Council, composed of men of outstanding ability, repre- sentative of industry, agriculture and labor. This council would bring about a close rapprochement be- tween government, industry, agricul- ture and labor that would assist the formulation and execution of f.Xtec,- tine Men sures for the a�naintenanee of that equilibrium which would ensure stable prosperity.

There was a sil- ence. He looked about stupidly. Not that he could have expected anything else than silence. Yet it was weird, uncanny. He had spoken to a mute and invisible audience. Was it one„ a hundred, a thousand, a hundred thou- sand? No one could do ether than guess. "Always the radio is a tempera- mental thing, that is, if you can say inanimate things are temperamental." Garrick turned. It was Professor Vario who had just heard he was there and had hurried into the building at the news. "Now, Dick," exclaimed Garrick, -when they were outside, "I've got that first call off. Now to the city!" A surprise awaited then as they drew up at Glenn's garage guarded by the Astra Agency Hien. "Glad you came, sir," exclaimed the agency manager himself. "I've got three men here now." The manager tool: him inside and closed the door. In the corner was a well-dressed man with a Greek cue' of countenance, handcuffed.

He's au accessory after the fact----maybe—at least a receiver of stolen goads." The prisoner seemed to regarcl,Gar- rick as a savior. "You see, sir, I buy the Inner Circle —r,nderstand?-for fifty thousand dol- lars—understand? If I get all the goods—understand?" Garrick did understand. It was a matter of making a quick sell-out and .getaway. "here's your bill of sale or whatever it is you have for this?" Achilleo pulled out a paper. It was signed by Georges and Rae ILarne, as agent in fact. "Now, I understand that the money is to pass tonight at the Inner Circle when this is signed?" The man nodded. "Then if you want to get free in this little illegal trans- action, Mr. Achlleo, and have that was Thoroughly they searched, but there was no trace of Rae or the others. "All the wild horses in Hades wouldn't get a word out of Georges now," Garrick observed. "Dick our only hope lies in wireless in some form or other. Dick, you're an expert at it." (To be continued.)

I managed to get to Success in teaching music to chil- dren depends largely on getting the children interested in the music study. It goes without saying that a child, as well as an adult, will learn music or anything else quicker and better if an interest is aroused in the study or the pursuit. Yet it must not be imagined that the pleasing of the child is the especial goal at which 'we aim. If it were, we would never give the child technical exercises, and to many of them no pieces except popular airs. And if we carry the idea to its logical conclusion in other studies, the amount of grammar, ari- thmetic, geography, history and spel- ling that many children would learn might be put into a vest pocket. No, the proper aini of the music teacher is to educate all his pupils in music, real music, high-toned music, and in time difficult music; to train the ear to distinguish the pure from the impure, the true from the false, and the lofty from the degraded; to make the hand of the pianist flexible and dexterous; for the singer to make the voice sweet and pure, with per- fect erfect intonation, and pronunciation.

For head- aches; to check Colds. To ease a sore throat and reduce the infection. For relieving neuralgic, neuritic, rheumatic pain. People used to wonder if Aspirin might be harmful. The doctors answered that question years ago. a., Itis not. Some folks still wonder if it really does relieve pain. That's settled! For millions of men and women have found it does.
