LORD LEVERHULME A CAPTAIN
OF INDUSTRY
Lord Leverhulme was well known in
Toronto. Like that other notable
British Captain of industry, Sir
Thomas Lipton, business called 'him
this way frequently. Like Sir Thomas
he was courteous to newspaper inter-'
viewers and was of the cheery, opti-
mistic disposition that prompted him
to 'general good will and the free ex-
pression of opinion. He will be par-
ticularly missed in England where he
was one of the most popular of the
great business men. He never had a
strike in his works because he was a
firm believer in sharing with his em-
ployes the profits of their joint en-
deavor. He regarded his great wealth
as a public trust, to use a hackneyed
expression. 'H�e had risen from the
humblest circumstances to a position
of great wealth and responsibility
and he never lost his sympathies for
those who were engaged in the up-
ward climb, nor those who had given
up hope of mounting higher. He was
one of the shrewdest of business men
and we may suspect that about his
philanthropies there was more than
a touch of masterfulness, even ruth-
lessness, The story about him cutting
down a portrait of himself by August
John in order that it might fit .into a-
particular niche was probably char
acteristic.
William Hesketh Lever was a clerk
and errand boy in his father's grocery
shop in Bolton, England, in 1867.
That he was an industrious and
noticing boy may be taken for
granted, and he came early to the
conclusion that while money was to
be made out of the grocery business
more money was to be made out of
manufacturing some specialty. He
decided on soap. In 1874 he prepar-
ed and began to market a brand call-
ed "Lever's Pure Honey Soap" which
was probably the first intimation giv-
en the newspaper reading public that
good soap could be compounded out of
pure honey. It is to be noted that
Leverhulme was always apt in the
names he chose for his products. In
the course of time he made "Sunlight,"
"Lifebuoy" and "Lux" household
words. Into their manufacture he
put the purest of ingredients, and
behind their sale he organized a tre-
mendous body of advertising. Per-
haps no other English manufacturer
surpassed him in the vast appropria-
tions for making his goods well
known. He effected economies in
manufacture, and these with the
quality of his product and the great
sums spent in making them well
known are responsible for his suc-
cess.
His early adventures with the
honey soap encouraged him Unto
venturing deeper into the business
and in 1886 he and his brother,
D'Arcy Lever, formed the firm of
Lever Brothers at Warrington. Later
on they founded and developed the
town of Port Sunlight, near Liver-
pool, which is one of the show places
of England. In point of harmonious
architectural design and living con-
veniences it is said that Oda little
town is unrivalled. The houses are
picturesquely Elizabethan in design.
They are fitted with all modern
conveniences and are rented at twen-
ty-four shillings . a month to Lever-
hulme employes. There are parks and
playgrounds, trees are planted where -
ever trees will grow. There are grade

factories in many countries. They
operate a whaling fleet. They control
the palm oil industry of West Africa.
It is not to be wondered at, that the
main creator of all this wealth. found
his chief pleasure in. bueiaess. Re
used to. say that be was never ill and
1
therefore e was always liappy, He
re arty exercised, of late years on a
mehainical horse of the breed recent-
ly discovered in the stable of Presi-
dent Coolidge. Every morning he a-
rose at four -thirty, and every even-
ing he. retired at ten. He loved danc-
ing and company, but his entertain-
ments always closed at ten o'clock.
When he could find time he loved
to walk, but games had no appeal
for him, especially competitive
games for he said that he could
find enough competition in business.
Art was his great hobby. He had a
vast collection at his lovely home on
Hampstead Heath, and every article
in it he bought because of its ap-
peal to him. He'did not employ ex-
perts to fit him out, but chose for
himself. He said not long ago that
he still treasured the first picture
he ever bought when he was a
grocer, living in a house at £40 a
year, bought, as he said, "simply for
the pleasure of living with it." Many
of these possessions he passed, on to
Port Sunlight so that they Might
bring joy and comfort to his em-
ployes. Lord Leverhulme was an ab-
stainer, but had a notable cellar
from which his guests would re-
fresh themselves while he imbided
a lemon squash, devoid of alcoholic
content. Lord Leverhulme was a Lib-
eral in politics and sat in the House
of Commons for four years, but pol-
itics did not greatly interest him. In
1911, he was made a baronet and in
1917, in recognition of his work in
the war, a peer. The title he chose
was a combination of his own name
and that of his wife, who was a miss
Elizabeth Hulme, who shared his
early struggles.
SCOTLAND .
Bursting of dam at Skelmorlie re-
servation near Greenock caused much
Havoc and loss of life..Four persons
are known to have been drowned and
several houses were swept away when
the dam burst. First reports receiv-
ed from the scene o�,the disaster were
that there were many fatalities.
Butcher was fined £3 in the Elgin
Sheriff Court for killing a bullock,
found later to be suffering from an-
thrax: The . Procurator -'Fisch said
the case had been brought tip in the
public interest as a warning of the
great risks attendant upon an oper-
ation on an animal which contracted
some unknown disease. The butcher
had allowed the blood to run all over
the place and even into the byres, and
every drop of it coming into contact man an or beast was capable of
dealing death.
Exodus of Scotch from their native
land was recently commented upon in
the British House of Commons, The
speaker, Captain Walter Elliott, said
that emigration and death had so ex-
ceeded immigration and birth that at
the end of 1924 there were 20,000 few-
er people in Scotland than at the be -
,ginning. The death rate, he said, had
risen from 12.9 in 19$'3 to 14.4 in 1924
yet there were 181,000 unemployed,
and 70,000 able-bodied persqns and
their dependants were on th6 parish.

ENGLAND AND WALES
LITTLE BIBLE RECALLS .MUTINY
OF BOUNTY
There has recently been added to
the treasures of the New York Pub -
lice Library a little Bible that has a
romantic history. It is known as the
"Pitcairn Bible" because it was taken
ashore on this island when the mut-
ineers of the Bounty landed there. It
must have been by accident that this
little volume accompanied these
lawless men, but in course of time
when their fierce passions had burnt
themselves out and when a civiliza-
tion began to develop the Bible was
turned to by the last of the original
survivors, John Adams, and from
studying it he evolved a system of
law and ethics which has governed
the colony for more than a hundred
years. The story of the mutiny of
the Bounty is one of the great
dramas of the sea, and one that
never will lose its romance. It was
in 1787 that the Bounty sailed from
Spithead, having been fitted out by
a group of London merchants co-
operating with the British Govern-
ment to bring South Sea breadfruit
trees for transplanting in England
and the West Indies. After almost
a year's voyage, under command of
Lieutenant William Bligh, the ves-
sel reached Tahiti. The crew of
forty-six men, including one garden-
er, were turned loose on the island
for ten months, and were completely
enthralled by the beauty of the place
and the charm of the native women.
It was unwillingly that the men
left when the Bounty had got her
cargo stowed away. but it is prob-
able that there would have- been no
thought of mutiny had it not been
for the tyrannical character of
Lieutenant Bligh. He was a man who
bulldozed the crew and quarrel-
led with his officers, Fletcher Chris-
tian was the master's mate and he
came in for mor than his share of
abuse. Three day,z out from Tahiti.
Bligh broke into a violent tirade
about a trifling matter and threat-
ened general and disproportionate
punishment. The men, led by Chris-
tian, rebelled and seized the ship.
They outfitted the largest boat and
into it they put Pligh and eighteen
of the men who remained loyal to
him. It has often been pointed out
that in similar circumstances other
mutineers have murdered their of-
ficers, acting on the principle that
dead men tell no ales. There was a
dispute among those on the Bounty
as to what course they should pur-
sue. Some wanted' to go back to
lovely Tahiti, hot.h others said that it
would be in Tahiti that the British
Government would begin its search
for them when Bligh was picked
up and told his story. They com-
promised in returning for a brief
visit to the island of delights.
Sixteen of them landed with their
share of the ship's provisions and
arms with the intention of remaining
there for the restof their lives. Of
these two died later at the hands of
the natives, while the fourteen others
were overtaken by the vengeance of
British law. The nine more cautious
mutineers who remained with the
Bounty provided themselves with ten
native women, a native girl of fifteen
and ten native men to act as their
servants. Then they sailed away to
discover some out-of-the-way island
where they might be safe from dis-
covery. Eventually they found one
two and a quarter miles long by a
mile and a half wide. It was fertile,
had a plentiful water supply and was
uninhabited. The men took every-
thing moveable off the Bounty—
plants, animals, food, arms and furn-
nos is

iture. They took also, perhaps by
inadvertence, the little Bible. Then
they burned the vessel as a final pre-
caution. and turned to the strange
tasks that awaited them. Fletcher
Christian was recognized as their
leader and he drew up the rough a-
greements by which the island was
divided into equal strips, one for each
white man and his native wife and
servant.
But lawlessness was in them. They
could not settle to real work. They
preferred to drink while the natives
toiled. When their original supply
of rum gave out, Seaman McCoy,
who had been a distiller in England,
found that he could make a fiery
beverage out of roots. Thus with an
unlimited supply assured them the
sailors drank with even greater
abandon. This led to brawling and
promiscuity with the women. The
wife of one of them fell over a cliff
and was drowned, and her husband,
Williams, then demanded that he
should have the wife of another,
Crisp brown waffles, the American
form of pancake, are now obtainable

The difference is in the use of maple
syrup in place of sugar and lemon.
Giant skate was captured alive af-
ter an exciting fight by four Brighton
fishermen, and has been placed in the
largesttank of the Brighton Aquar-
ium, which is the largest tank in the
world. The fish, which was captured
in a -trawl, is 6 ft. 6 in. long, 5 ft.
wide, and weighs 250 lbs.
Ancient windmill at Leavenheath in
Exeter, which has performed its du-
ties continuously for 300 years, has
been demolished. The mill measured
80 feet to the top to the sails from
the ground, and had a 62 feet spread
of sails. The original oak beams
were found practically as good as
new, and behind the sails, inside the
top of the mill, was a striking piece
of woodwork in the form of a toothed
wheel 9 feet in diameter.
Birthrate decrease in England and
Wales is causing comment. ¶the
number of babies born in the quarter
ending April 11th this year and dur-
ing approximately similar periods in
the previous three years was: 1922,
106,682; 1923, 100,930; 1924, 95,142;
1925, 91,934. Thus this year, 14,748
fewer babies were born than in the
corresponding period of '1922. ' A
medical statistician states that the
falling birthrate is almost world-wide.
Two predatory kestrels have made
their home in an inaccessible corner
of the tower of St. Miehael's Church,
Cornhill andattract attention in the
evening by their curious screaming.
The kestrel is a small hawk with a
bluish beak, black claws, and dull
brown coloration. It has a long tail,
which led to a fight. The native men
beeame tired of the abuse of the
white men and plotted to kill them
all. They stole their firearms and
murdered five Englishman, including
Fletcher Christian. But McCoy,
Quintall and Adams escaped into the
bush, and Young was - concealed by
the women. The women stood by
the whites, who now rallied and
turned upon the native men, whom
they killed one by one. A short time
later McCoy, maddened by his liquor,
committed suicide, leaving Quintall,
Adams and Young. Quintall had the
misfortune to lose his wife, and de-
manded another. Adams and Young,
fearing for their own lives, knocked
out his brains with a hatchet.
The orgy of drink and murder had
now run its course, and when Young,
a sufferer from asthma, died in 1800,
John Adams, the sole survivor and
the only pure-blooded white on the
island, felt a sense of his. responsi-
bility, and turning to the Bible,
though he could read with difficulty,
studied it diligently and sought to
establish a code of laws for the .bait -
caste and black population. A col-
ony of friendly, peace -loving and .
kindly people grew up under his
care. Twenty years had passed when
the first ship ' was sighted from the
island. She was, the American trad-
ing ship Topaz, which put in at Pit-
cairn Island for water. Great was
the astonishment of her commander
to find the place inhabited and to be
hailed in the English language. It.
was only after the Topaz reached
home that the whole story of the
Bounty's crew was given to the
world. Other "vessels called after
that, and no effort was made to take
Adams back . to England to answer
for his share of the crime. Perhaps
it was thought that he had expiated
it. He died in 1829, Ieaving behind
him a mourning but self-respecting
colony which had grown to nearly
one hundred, and which in 1839 add-
ed another tiny speck of red to the
map of the British Empire.

when you bought my * C.C.M.
and, afterwards, said you were sorry
you didn't buy a cheaper one, like
Billy Breen's?"
"You ought to see Billy's now, Dad.
It looks five years' old ! And it runs so
hard 1 Billy's hardly using it at all."
"Is that so, Jack?"
"Yes. And look at my C.C.M. See
how smooth and bright the enamel is.
And look how the nickel sparkles.
You'd think my C.C.M. was new this
season. Ride up to the corner and
back, Dad, and see how easy it runs.
My C.C.M. cost a little more than
Billy's, but you should be proud of
your judgment in buying it, Dad."
"You mean your judgment, don't
you, Jack? You kept telling me how
much better a C.C.M. was. You were
so eager to have a C.C.M. that I didn't

"bicycle wise".
They know all about the smooth -running
C.C.M. Triplex Crank Hanger, the extra

over copper, the English Seamless Tubing,
the drop forged crown, the new improved
Hercules Brake and the other good fea-

Trust your boy's judgment. He knows.
And the sooner you get a bicycle for him,
the longer season he will have to enjoy it.

C•C •M •s are the biggest values since
