The (.nock sound( d ii.,, the Boit
click of a night Latch. Naomi open-
ed the door, and he stood then --a
tall, humble look;ng figure whose
sunken grey eyes peered un(ltro
sively from a son -lc atltercal face
if Philip had been here she would
1t:,.: closed the do, r. She would say,
"I'm sorry-, but tic ha\e nothing
left." Or, just, "I'm sorry." But
Philip v, isn't iter . And she was
ready to place the G)od on the table.
"Good morning, \Ia'am?" he said.
1Ic sun,led, a tender smile that
broke through his grey Nvhiskcrs,
"Would you be kind enough to
give an old ratan a—a bite to cat:"
Then it was as if Philip was be-
hind her, staring over her shoulders
glaring with those level brown eyes
of his, saying, "Tell him to go on
his way."
The sun flashed a sv(.Icolning sig-
nal on her bright smile, and touched
the high tones of her smoothly
planed face. "Conus in," she said.
"You're just in time."
Ile had a cautious quality about
his step as he crossed the threshold
into the kitchen, She could almost
hear Philip say, "Sec how careful
he is? You got to \vat'ch that kind.
That characteristic quirk isn't
exactly human nature!„
Connie ran in from the dining
room, her brown curls bobbing on
her head like soft coils of spring.
."Go hack and get in your chair,
Connie," Naomi said. "We're going
to have company." Shc gave the beg-
gar a radiant smile, and pointed to
a chair in the dining room, "You
may sit there. The hat can go on the
bureau behind you."
Suddenly she saw her purse there.
She had placed it there after having
brought home the things front the
grocer's. But it would look silly now
to remove it, she Ilrought. Even if
he were one of Philip's characters,
there was only CO cents, to the pen-
ny, in the purse,
It would have made no difference
in the world to Philip that he vas
old. The older, the more experi-
enced; the more experienced, the
craftier, was Philip's philosophical
slant on it.
* * *
Naomi heard the man chuckle as
she stood at the stove, nixing the
gravy with the potatoes. She brought
the food to the table, put some in
Connic's plate, and urged the man
to help himself, He did, unemhar-
rassingly, but he didn't take much
Just a little of each.
'He pushed the plate away from
him when he was finished, patted
his skinny stomach with satisfac-
tion.
"You're not through?" Naomi
said. "There's lots more."
He shook his head. "No, Ma'am,
thanks. I'm through. It was delici-
ous, believe me, Ma'am. I'm cer-
tainly thankful to yc."
Philip (Foul(( rave when he'd hear.
She'd tell him, of course, Why not?
Shc thought, if Philip could be here,
now; if he could just sit in a corner
and watch, he would cast out of his
mind all those ridiculous beliefs he
had about these unfortunate human
beings.
But she'd tell him, and she would
laugh when he'd rave.
Back in the (lining room, she sat
down again and began finishing her
meal.
* * *
"Mamma ?" "Yes, dear?" she
glanced up. Connie's black eyes were
staring peculiarly at her. "What is
it, darling?" "That man opened
your parse," Connie said.
Naomi stared incredulously at her
daughter. "Connie," her voice was
sharp. "Arc you sure?" "Yes, Mam-
ma."
Immediately, she thought of Phil-
ip
Quickly, she rose from the chair,
swooped the purse off the top of the
bureau. Shc flicked it open with
tier thumb, and sprawed into it
Kith trembling fingers. And, sud-
denly—
"Connic'" (ler voice .shrilled high,
bell -like. "Connie, tool'" ,She teas
smiling radiantly.

Seabirds of Gaspe Find Breeding
Grounds Close to Pounding Surf
By James Montagnes in the Christian Science Monitor.
While ocean liners pass close to
the little French-Canadian village
of Perce, no than -made booming of
boat horns sound above the pound-
ing of the surf, the thunderous beat-
ing of countless wings, and the rau-
cous calling of tens of thousands of
birds. 'Though farce is one of the
first sights of land at) ocealn captain
secs after his crossing, his whis-
tles keep still, his salutes after
a successful crossing wait until
he is further up the Gaspe coast
of Canada, for the regulations call
for no man-made noise blasts off
the little village of Perce.
For off this little fishermen's
village, with its French-speaking
Scots and Irish, are the two last
breeding places on this continent
of many types of seabirds, which
flocked the coasts in countless
millions when the first explorers
discovered what is now the Gulf
of St. Lawrence.
Today Perce Rock, off the little
village, and Bonaventurc Island,
three miles out to sea from Perce,
are the remaining breeding places
of gannets, cormorants, puffins,
gulls, aulks, musses and other sea -
fowl. Loud blasts front boats
would startle the birds; they would
upset their eggs in their haste
to take flight,
* * *
Bonavcnturc Island is about three
miles long and a mile and a half
wide. On its seaward side are
great cliffs of red sandstone, whose
broad ledges form secure nesting
places for throngs of seabirds. It
is Tike a huge apartment house for
birds, with a sea view on all sides.
Perce Rock is an isolated limestone
mass about 1,500 feet long, 300
feet wide, and about as high above
the sea.
* *
Brightly colored, rugged with
steep cliffs which cannot be easily
climbed, these two nesting rocks
arc secluded, according to the
instincts of breeding birds, which
pick hidden places to lay their
eggs and hatch their young.
Perce Rock has no inhabitants
except birds; its sides are too
steep for the best climbers. Bona -
venture Island has a few hones,
an old church, ruins on its top,
and can be climbed from one side,
the other sides slipping almost
straight down into the pounding
sea. Some 10 families live on Bon-
aventure Island, but back in 1600
it was widely known to fishermen.
The birds were so numerous they
were like a "fog" to quote the
early explorers.
Later Bonavcnturc became the
home, of bauccaneers and priva-
teers who waged war on the ships
of France. Settlers came from
the British Channel Islands, and
while . their names arc still of
Scots and Irish descent, French
is spoken on the island, and the
customs of the Channel islands
prevail.
* *
When the birds on the two rocks
appeared to be losing the battle
of slaughter and pillaging of eggs
about 25 years ago, the Canadian
and Quebec governments declares,
the nesting places sanctuaries, and
forbade the blowing of boat
whistles and horns. Since then bird
life has made a major comeback,
and annually a growing number of
visitors come by highway and boat
to see the birds in their increasing
number swarm the cliff sides.
Because from the top of Bona -
venture Island the wheeling, cir-
cling birds can be studied at close
range, naturalists flock to the is-
land in Sunnier time. Aerodyna-
mic engineers have also been re-
ported on the island to study every
action of the birds with fast cameras
to aid the study of aviation.
The bird roosts are reached by
climbing the western beach along
a hardly visible trail through the
spruce woods. !Blueberries and
strawberries grow wild for the
picker on the narrow trail.
* * *
Glimpses of the ocean far be-
low are seen between the thickly
grown bush, and here and there in
the clearing near the lower part of
the island the ruins of old homes
arc passed, while from a few ancient
houses smoke curls from the chim-
neys.
After a long climb an open spot
is reached from where can be
seen the rows of birds as they sit
in tiers on their rock ledges
watching the continuous play of
the waves in the sea below.
Most studied of the birds is the
gannet, known to ancient mariners
as solan geese, • a bird as large as
a goose, pure white with black
wing l:',)s and a slight creamy
wash on the crown and its hind
neck. Lines about its eyes re-
sembling spectacles give it a slight-
ly comic appearance.
* * *
It is a large and powerful bird,
pleasuring nearly three feet in
length, and has pointed wings
which spread to over six feet when
in flight. It can fly swiftly, climb
rapidly, or instantly check its flight
and nose (live from 200 feet with un-
erring accuracy on a mackerel, its
chief food.
When its landing area is not
too small, the gannet lands on the
edge of its nesting ledge, runs for
several feet, sometimes falling on
its breast if the speed is great. In
limited space though the gannet is
awkward on its feet, it can make
a perfect spot landing.
Boatmen circle Bonavcnturc Is-
land each Summer with the grow-
ing number of visitors. From the
sea can be seen every ledge and
shelf covered with white as though
snow had been piled in drifts
on the cliffs, allowing only the (lull
red color of the rock to show in a
few spots.
* * *
Perce Rock is mainly Inhabited
by double -crested cormorants. They
raise their young on its rocky roof,
the only place on the promontory
which allows any sort of foothold.
It is called Perce (French for
Pierce) Rock because of the unique
arch at one end of its base, through
which a boat can sail, and which
is passable at ebb tide on foot.
Perce Rock is considered one of
the beauty spots of the Atlantic
coast, and has drawn geologists
from all parts of the world to see
its natural arch and its riot of
color when a sunset plays on tl'c
limestone formation.
The birds of Bonaventure Is-
land and Perce Rock are no frien(ts
of the fishermen, and yet the pen .Ic
of the Perce coast would miss
the birds should they vanish

The First Glass
Investigators seers to agree that
the first glass probably was made
in Egypt, but the point neycr has
been satisfactorily settled.
According to Pliny's account,
Phoenician merchants carrying a
cargo of soda from Egypt, landed
in Syria on the River Bclus, near
Mount Carmel, and made fires to
cool, their rascals. Resting the iron
pots on blocks of the (solidified)
soda, the heat caused fusion of the
alkali and sand, thus forming glass.
The legend of Josephus states
that glass was discovered when the
Israelites set fire to a wood and
that nitre became fused with sand.

We all know that Father Time (las
a dirty habit of sneaking up on tis
when w'e're not looking; hut, even
so', it's difficult to realize that almost
21 years have slipped by since the
rlainc "George Young" first crashed
the headlines. For it was on Jan, 16,
1927 that all Canada \vent haywire
over the news that an unknown
Toronto kit hadwon I swim from

Los Angeles to Catalina Island, for
which Mr, Wrigley had hung out

Tike the recent dither regarding Bar-
bara ;\nn Scott—remember her?—
only doubicd and redoubled and with
various hilarious sidelights sadly
missing in the latter affair. For with
that kind of money in the oiling, you
may be sure there were many helping
hands outstretched; and before
things cooled down, Young was
probably carved and sliced more
ways than any watermelon that ever
ripened on a fruit -store shelf.
* *
1fowever, directly out of Young's
feat sprang the Canadian National
Exhibition Marathon Swings, to be
revived once again very shortly. We
can hardly wait either, as for sheer
lack of thrills and • utter absence of
excitement, those long - distance
water -crawls beat anything we have
ever seen its sport; and we can well
recall sitting in the launch from
which the swim broadcasts origin-
ated and pitying the poor oafs at the
mike in their efforts to make bricks
without straw, and sound as if they
weren't finding it hard to stay awake.

Lincoln was one of the greatest wren
who ever lived, and the opening of
his long -sealed private papers a mat-
ter of world-wide interest. The fact
that the chief interest seemed to
centre around whether or not those
papers contained anything scandal-
ous regarding either Lincoln's par-
entage or his assassination just goes
to prove—Oh, anything you like.
* * *
The Toronto Globe & Mail has
been editorially bemoaning, at some
length, the poor showing Canadians
make in international sports, and
collies to the conclusion that we are
becoming a nation of spectators
rather than participants. The fact
that our daily papers devote double
or three times the space to pro-
fessional or "spectator" sport that
they, do to the amateur or "partici-
pant" variety would, of course, have
Clothing to (IO W'itll thiS'collditiou.

ll'insion Churchill, who since his
defeat in the last British elections
(las continued to talk like a good,
gauge winner, flays the present Gov-
ernment because it wastes precious
American exchange on such iworts
as tobacco. if Afr. Churchill had con-
tinued in power he would, tt'c lake it,
have shut down on the import of the
filthy Yard altogether. Except, pos-
sibly, a limited nttutbcr of high-
quality eigar.t

What Science Is Doing
Influenza Vaccine
Of ntore than ordinary moment
is the announcement made to the
Philadelphia Section of the Ameri-
can Chemical Society that research-
ers have developed a new vaccine
capable of preventing influenza epi-
demics such as took 150,000,000
lives after the First World War,
This encouraging word conies
front an eminent authority, Dr.
Wendell M. Stanley of the Rocke-
feller Institute for Medicaltc
al Re-
search, Princeton, N.J., a Nobel
Prize winner and a scientist most
unlikely to go about staking merely
wishful forecasts.
According to Dr. Stanley, the
new vaccine, like three others al-
ready available, has proven effec-
tive its mass inoculations of 120,000
persons in a big industrial concern,
but its crowning merit it that, un-
like the others, it causes no un-
favorable reactions, such as chills,
fevers or bodily aches.
:Medicine stoves slowly and with
caution as it should, 13ttt this looks
like an important addition to the
doctors' armament against disease.
Particularly will the vaccine devel-
oped tinder the direction of the fa-
mous Dr. Stanley be -of interest to
laymen when the latter are told that
some medical Wren believe there
will be a recurring cycle of epidemic
influenza next year.
German Specialists
Coming to Canada
Importation of 14 German spe-
cialists is expected to provide at
least a thousand new jobs for
Canadians. These Germans are
technicians with the special know-
ledge and skill to introduce brand
new processes and products into
this country, says the Financial
Post.
Admittedly these specialists re-
present the very cream of the mil-
lions of immigrants we could get
from defeated Germany. Normally
we couldn't hope to attract many
in their topnotch category. But, if
we wished, we could secure many
hundreds of thousands of poten-
tial specialists from Germany and
other countries in Western Europe.
And out of those thousands there
would be a great many w'lio, seeing
opportunities here that native Can-
adians have either missed, or for
some reason neglected, would de-
velope new industries and create
new jobs.
Where would this continent be
today had there been no immigrant
ships to bring out the fathers and
grandfathers of the Saunders,
Fords, 13urbanks, Edisons, Bells,
and hundreds of others %vho have
launched new industries or opened
new territories? Certainly in Can-
ada at least, we are not so far de-
veloped that we can afford to pass
up any offers of help.

Men don't die of overwork, and a
bad heart may do yeoman service
for many a Tong year, if the facts

And the first caution is letting
down the pressure. The work won't

doesn't mean a long sea voyage, or
months in bed unless the pressure
has been kept too high for too long.
1)eliheratcly, consciously slacken
pace several tithes every day. Loosen
your necktie and shoestrings. Put
your feet on the desk. It may not
be elegant, but it is a safeguard.
Try it two or three tittles a day
and for two or three minutes. Try
letting the world look after itself,
while you look after nothing. That is
a fairly simple way to avoid a blow-
out.

HANDS AT WORK ...
LEARIT T ; REFRIGERATION
ONTARIO'S productive capacity is the measure of her future
prosperity. To assure this province a prominent place in domestic and
_foreign trade markets, skilled hands are needed. Increased production
of refrigeration units will mean a greater nerd for skilled servicing.
Veterans, basically trained in schools and ON 'I'I1E .I013, will fill this
need as they are absorbed into industry. For those who have mastered
Flcilled occupations, Higher wages, job security and better working con-
ditions are within easier react;.
Through plans sponsored by the Department of Veterans Affairs and
other agencies, hundreds of young workers are being trained for refrigera-
tion servicing. Graduates of training schools are ready now to take
their places in industry. Craftsmen of the future, they will have a share
in Ontario's progress—an important part to play in her industrial de-
velopment.

CHAPTER I
.\t first glance, had there been
anyone close enough to study hire,
the rider looked like a Mexican, a
wandering vaquero, remarkable
chiefly for his horse, a magnifi-
cent blue roan. tlichael Valdez y
O'Brien wore leather chaps to
protect his legs from thorny brush,
and a silver -brocaded charro vest
and concha -decorated sombrero.
He pushed the roan through a
clump of juniper to emerge on an
outcropping of rock that over-
looked a wide, lush valley, The sun
dripped gold on the brilliant green
of the knee-deep grassland below
him, Michael Valdez y 011 ;Ica
sat on the blue roan, 'named El
Cielo, for his resemblance to the
sky of the sct-drenched South-
west, and gazed down upon that
scene of peace.
He felt El Cielo go restless be-
neath hint as the fine beast scented
the lush pastures at the foot of the
rock shelf, spoke a chiding word to
the roan for disturbing Itis peace-
ful mood—and then stiffened in
the saddle.
A puff of smoke, far away in
the valley, revealed peril in Para-
dise. It was the hot, ugly gray and
yellow smoke caused by the burn-
ing of human habitation, smoke
which Michael Valdez y O'Brien
had come to know all too well in
his years of wandering through
the Southwest.
Even as he touched Mexican
silver spurs lightly to the horse's
flanks, he caught a glimpse of red
tongues of fire. Gauging the dis-
tance he had to cover, he knew
that he would be too late.
* * *
Long before he reached the site
of the fire the flames had died to
a faint curl of stroke which, float-
ing skyward beyond the trees, was
all that was left to point the way.
He put El Cielo to a gallop in an
effort to get there before even this
last beacon faded out.
Rounding a small clump of trees,
he finally saw the scene of de-
struction before hien. The thin pil-
lar of smoke wound upward from
the charred remains of a log cabin
that had sprawled under two tall
cottonwood trees beside a brook,
Smaller smoke columns rose from
- what must have been, until re-
cently, a barn,
He flung himself from the sad-
dle under the cottonwood trees,
while dust flew from the hoofs of
the roan as it skidded to a stop.
His eyes were hot and his mouth
was thin as he surveyed the glow-
ing embers. His sombrero, blown
from his head by the speed of his
ride, hung by a string around his
neck, revealing hair that shone
blue -black in the sunlight as he
ran forward. Had he met the per-
petrators •of the outrage he saw
before him just then, they would
have received short shrift. Few
sten had faced the heat that now
shone in his eyes and lived to tell
of it, since he had taken the ven-
geance trail.
*
A dead woman was sprawled on
the ground, so close to the burning
embers of the log cabin that the
hair had been scorched off her
head. The charge of buckshot
that had killed her had made her
whole body a sickening horror.
But she had been brave to the end
—she had fought a good but futile
fight. For an old musket, covered
with rust, was still clutched in her
toil -worn hands.
Valdez' eyes, searching swiftly
around, found the other victim. He
was a white-haired old Mexican,
who lay near the well, with its
charred planking. And even as
Valdez looked, he saw one of
the old man's arms move feebly.
Michael Valdez rushed to him,
Kneeling, he lifted the old man's
head, cradling it in his arms.
"Amigo," he said gently, "can
you hear me? Hold tight, old-tim-
er—we'll get you fixed up right
away."
A dull groan was the only an-
swer, The old Mexican's eyelids
fluttered slightly, but the eyes did
not open,
Qutckly, but with the utmost
tenderness, Valdez laid the man
flat on the burned grass and swift-
ly pulled a bucket of cold water
out of the small-bore well. He
bathed the white-haired Mexican's
face, and forced some of the water
between the drawn -back lips.
"Amigo," Valdez said, still gent-
ly, but urgently, "Speak to me, if
you can! 'fell me what devil did
this savage massacre here?"
* * *
Pain spread over the patrician
features of the dying man.
Painfully the old ratan forced
his eyes open, to look through
their glazing at the man who tnin-
istered to hint. And with lips con-
torted to force himself to speak,
he managed to croak a name:
"Raymond—Garvin—"
Michael Valdez y O'Brien stiff-
ened, and a strange glitter came
into his own dark eyes. His own
lips formed the name:
"Garvin! Raymond Garvin!"
How long he had sought that
man and his evil companions! The
man who now, after the five years
when he had perpetrated just such
another outrage far away, must
think himself safe! He could know
nothing of Michael Valdez' having
been out the vengeance trail,
searching, searching, through all
the broad land for all that time.
And always without success --
until now, Now here, in this hid-
den valley, he had come upon
damning evidence that Raymond
Garvin, still lived and was carry-
ing on his nefarious business)
"Go on—please, amigo," Valdez
said softly, with no sign of the
urgency that was in his own heart.
"This man Garvin of whom you
speak—this devil in human form
who has done this terrible thing
to you and yours—where can I
find him?"
Blood was flecking the old
man's lips now, bubbling up frotn
the lungs that had been shatter-
ed with buckshot. His eyes were
filming with the sign of death that
was near, Once more he made It
valiant effort to speak, but the ef-
fort was too much for his bullet -
riddled body.
Even as Michael Valdez held
hint in his arms, a gentle shudder
passed through the old Spaniard's
body, and his head lolled side -
ward. Gently Valdez laid him
down, I -Ie was dead.
Bitterness swept fur o u g h
Michael Valdez and shook every
f:ber of his being as he stared
down at the dead man. And once
more he muttered, aimost itt dis-
belief:
* * *
"Raymond Garvin! But this time
he'll not get away. I-Ie'll pay!"
The memory of just such an-
other scene was etched on his
brain with acid, that scene he had
come upon five years ago when he
had been a happy-go-lucky youth
and had found his own father and
mother the victims, His beautiful
mother, Molly O'Brien, with the
hair of flame, the adored of his
father and himself. A shudder
shook his stalwart frame before
he straightened and pulled him-
self together grimly.
One hand dropped toward a
heavy gun in the elaborately stud-
ded leather holster at his lean,
muscular waist.
A figure on horseback was gal-
loping in frantic haste toward the
now dying embers of the log cabin.
But within a hundred yards of it, the
rider jerked the horse up sharply
at sight of the strange than standing
beside the charred ruins,
The rider vas young and small,
Valdez saw, and had the complexion
of a pure-bred Spaniard. Valdez'
first swift glance at the youth noted
the resemblance between hint and
the old man who lay dead by the
well. Unmistakably this was the son
of the massacred two beside the
ruins.
"Come ahead, amigo," Valdez call-
ed. "I'm Jere to help you. There is

One Reason Why
Girls Leave Home
* "1 want my own place, Anne
* I-Iirst, And if I told my parents
* why, I'd break their hearts. They
* give me everything I want—except
* privacy, 1 ant 17, and I'm old
* enough to be trusted."
This wail
conics from a
girl who is be-
ing smothered
by kindness.
Iler letter is
one of many
similar ones
that come
through regu-
larly. She gives
the most i►npor-
bnt reasons for her dissatisfactions
!ler mother and fattier urge her
to entertain her friends, but they
slick around lill midnight "helping
her" entertain them;
When a boy friend comes, they
make conversation until half the
time the youngsters miss the show
they'd planned to set—and they're
always wailing up when she gets
home;
IIcr• mother goes with her to buy
her clothes, and embarrasses her by
advising her before salespeople;
Her mother doesn't open her mail,
but she wants to know ev'er'y line
in every letter.
Now the girl's at the point zvhert
she can't be hersef even when she's
alone with her parents. She's too
full of resentment; she won't say
so, because "I wouldn't hurt them
for the world."
7.0 PARENTS:
You who read this column know
how I feel about parents supervis-
ing their daughters. But to super-
vise there loo vigorously, boo inti-
mately, is as dangerous as letting
them alone. To stand constant
watch, to Try to make yourself one
of her group, makes her feel that
she's .still 10 _years old. She resents
it with every fiber; she regards it
as an insult to her integrity. It
shames her before her friends. It
makes her self-conscious to the
point where her natural develop-
ment is being warped. ihith the best
intentions in the world, you are driv-
ing her away from you.
ll'hen her friends conte in, slay
long enough to say hello. 71,en you
!mo go to a show or visit friends,
so the youngsters can have the hoose
to themselves for the evening.
!Then she has a date, make the
boy welcome, then make yourselves
scarce And don't always wail up for
her.
A girl of 17 is old enough to
choose l:er ozcnn clothes, alone. Let
Iter make her own mistakes; that's
the only way she will learn.
And her mail is her own affair.
Unless yott have reason to suspect
she's corresponding with the wrong
boys, don't intrude.
Your home is her home, too. But
she cannot feel at home in it unless
she's allowed to be hostels to her
own friends. And how else can she
i'ver cultivate the social graces! You
won't always be around, you know.
If you aren't careful to respect
your girl's rights she will leave a
note one day saying she won't be
back. Or she'll run off with the
first boy who asks her.
To "NOT AT 110111E": / ani ad-
dressing my opinion fo your par-
ents, since you say they read the
column every day. Let's hope They
«'ill wake up, and learn fo be more
friends than parents.
IBRIEl: ANSWERS
TO "RUl'II C.": Any boy who be-
* Heves gossip about a girl, and
* drops her for it, is not worth
* having as a friend. No matter
* what he says about you, don't be-
• lieve it. Second-hand tales are as
* foolish to listen to, as to repeat.
* * *
TO "ROSE": Being a pal to a nice
* boy is the surest way to keep hint
* interested, 1t is what this boy ex-
* pects, and if you changed toward
* !tint you'd hits off for
* good.

*
TO "TOOTS": This young man is
* bored with you. It is too bad you
* didn't see it earlier. His suggcs-
* tion now is wise and kind (if you

Your Handwriting
and You Alex 2Arnott
The materialistic nature is re-
vealed in handwriting by small
letters and a long downward stroke
on the stem of letters "f," "g,'
"y" and "p." When these letters
look as though the stents are "dig-
ging down in the earth" or far
below the writing line, it is a
good sign the nature of the writer
is the same—down to earth 'with
both feet on the ground—strictly
materialistic. His whole life is
centered around the search for and
the desire to possess the material
things of life.
How determined the nature is
to he materialistic is indicated by
the thickness of the stems, The
thicker or wider the stroke, the
more determined the physical na-
ture, the length of the stroke in-
dicating how lasting or powerful
is the characteristic.
The spiritual nature is the op-
posite and is indicated in the high
reaching looped letters as in "h,"
"k," and "I". 'These stems appear
to be reaching heavenward while
the body of the lett* remains on
the ground or near the writing
line, indicating a tendency to ideal-
ism and reverence. The qualities of
these traits are shown by the slope
and presere of the !writing.
Anyone wishing a more complete
analysis please send self-addressed
stamped envelope to Box 11, room

the cattle in the bush, or to the
fart that wire fences cost money to
build and maintain. They broke
down fetters or C11(1111cd over them
in slack places, bending them over
and slaking them slacker still.
These people had no regard for the

the berries ;1111 an easy tray (0 gel

According to grapevine informa-
tion the present owner had acquired

then was his first experience at
what can happen to private proper-

appalled al the damage that was

reaction because the very next day
notices were (tailed up about every
hundred yards along the bush which
said—"Tresspassers will be prose-
cuted" and "Private Property —
Keep Out" 'there was also a wo-
snan on horseback patrolling the
roads and the bush as if the owner
really meant business.
And who can blame him? But
oh, those beautiful, luscious ber•

cheerfully crown the person or
persons whose thoughtlessness was

for the fact that 1 don't know swim

family scent to have developed a

spent a week of her holidays near
Val O'Or with her uncle and cou-
sins, And son Bob is at present
away some place the oilier side of
North Bay.
I suppose we all have different
ideas of what constitutes a holiday.
Talking about that just recently I
told my family my idea of a holi-
day for myself would be for the
rest of them to go away and leave
me at home alone. A whole week
maybe to do what l liked—stay
home when 1 liked, go out when
I liked—with no meals to cook or
dishes to wash. Now wouldn't that
be something?

now that there will be a "tedi-
low n" in the automotive building
at the C,N.E. this year They plan
to have fashion shows with boys
being the judges, also movies and
radio broadcasts And a record bar
where you niay find one of your
favourite orchestra leaders, if you
happen along at the right time. Do
you know who is responsible for the
kids getting all this pepped -up at-
tention this year? Well, i'11 tell
you. It's \Irs, Kate Aitken, Director
of tilt Women's Division of the
"Ex." 1'cs, Kate Aitken that can
accomplish more in ten hours than
15 men, is behind the big shote for
the tceners, Seems strange, and yet
so nice, to think that we are con-
sidered important enough to merit
all this. Well, we may see sonic of
you down in that section, and if we
do, don't forget to say hello.
Drape Shape and Long Dresses
There are two distinct changes
in clothes for guys and gals which,
in case 1'0u weren't aware of it, are
already in, For the boys, the drape
shape has been buried and if you
conic out with a real drape in that
new set of threads—swell, brother,
you might as well keep going. You
arc a has-been. The girls (bless
'ern) will be seen wearing dresses
that hang below the knees. Funny
things about this, but one well known
Canadian writer says that it's a
sign of a craning depression. \Vc
think that the dress designers know
there is still a little money in cir-
culation and want to get some of it
while it's still warm. \Vomcn have
to be in style, so they'll rent while
the lettuce lasts and get the new
longer -dresses Oh, you ladies, you!
You Have To Be Careful
Several weeks ago, following
pubticaion, a writer -friend of ours
called up and proceeded to put tis
straight on the SLANGUAGE we
use in this space. It seems that we
used a term that could be used in
a nasty book. \Vc didn't think about
it until we asked several others,
They missed the point too, until
told about it and then they agreed
with the man on the telephone. 1
hadn't realized before that one had
to be so very, very careful with
these modern expressions, No of-
fence meant and the editor didn't
say a word about it, so from now
on we'll watch things like that.
Thanks a lot Horace for drawing
the matter to our attention. It will
save our face at a future date. Well,
' it's closing time. I'll whip this
down to the post office And see
t'ou next week.
