Mystery Of Corpse
In Castle Wall
"Fire!" A frightened lad ran
across a courtyard of Edinburgh
Castle one autumn afternoon,
arousing the garrison to his cries
of alarm . , . and, incidentally,
setting off a trail of royal mys-
tery that defies solution to this
day.
A rafter running into the
chimney of the master -gunner's
office was ablaze. Luckily; the
eddying smoke was quickly de-
tected by the yard boy and
willing hands swiftly doused the
flames.
If the fire had occuu'red at
night, it might have been a dif-
ferent and more tragic story, The
magazines were stuffed with
ammunition and a fearful ex-
plosion would probably have
destroyed not only the Castle but
perhaps a large part of Edin-
burgh itself.
Fearful of the risk of such
dire consequences, the Governor
ordered all the surrounding
chimneys and walls to be close-
ly examined. But for this vigil-
ant inspection scientists would
never have stumbled on the rid-
dle of the baby's coffin that
still remains sealed in the Castle
wall.
Tapping the ancient masonry
that walled the private apart-
ments of Mary, Queen of Scots,
a workman noticed that one
stone emitted a hollow ring.
He pried it out, expecting to
find structural decay and clam -
age, Instead the space behind
it was filled by a tiny oaken cof-
fin.
It was of good workmanship
and, thinking they were stumbl-
ing on a lost hoard of treasure,
the masons opened the casket..
and fell back in alarm.
In the coffin lay the body of
a baby, shrivelled and mummi-
fied by the passage of time. Yet
the vestments of silk and cloth -
of -gold still gleamed with fresh
magnificence and the embroid-
ered initial "J" stood out richly
on the tiny sleeve.
From its craftsmanship and
style, experts estimated that the
coffin was between 250 and 300
years old. Was there a link be-
tween this macabre discovery in
1836 — and the more distant days
when Mary, Queen of Scots, was
a beautiful young woman of
twenty-four eagerly anticipat-
ing her first child?
Mary's husband, Robert Darn-
ley, stood next in succession) to
the English throne. And when
she announced that a baby was
on the way, the news ran from
lip to lip and her followers'
rejoicing knew no bounds.
The times were cruel and
dark. In England Elizabeth had
reigned as -a Protestant Queen
for eight years, each bitter month
increasing the flow of Catholic
refugees across the Border.
Every day, however, brought
new plots of religious intoler-
ance and, in the court of Scot-
land itself, Mary could rely on
only two true friends, One was
the proud Earl of Mar. The
other was humbly -born David
Rizzio, whom she had raised
from being a minstrel to be con-
stantly at her side as private
secretary.
A faint and abominable whis-
per suggested that Rizzio was
perhaps the true father of her
child. It was not more than a
whisper, swiftly stamped out,
for both Darnley and Mary ar-
dently dreamed that the coming
child would be the first to rule
a united kingdom of England and
Scotland.
Nothing should near that high
ambition and perhaps Rizzio was
always a lonely threat to such
hopes. Perhaps that is why, one
night, a group of conspirators
burst through Darnley's rooms
at Holyrood — Darnley himself
amongst them — to tear Rizzio
from the Queen's side.
There was a single, short cry
as the poniards plunged into his
breast — fifty vengeful dagger -
thrusts in all, Then his tattered
body was hurled into the court-
yard, while Mary wept silently
in a bitter passion of horror and
hate.
This part of the story is fam-
iliar, yet historians have still to
unravel the inner mystery, Al-
though men said that the broken
Queen would never tend her
husband with love again, she still
flattered him with silken words
and seemed to forgive him,
Even murder, it seemed, did
not diminish her allegiance to
him as husband, Or was she
stifling anguished inner hatred
for the sake of the coming child?
The baby was born three
months later. The guns proudly
boomed the event. "I present to
you the child who will unite the
kingdoms of Scotland and Eng-
land," said Mary, as she placed
the infant in Darnley's arms,
Thousands of stout hearts re-
joiced and the Egglish Parlia-
ment itself shivered.
But supposing the baby had
died, dashing all hopes, at this
vital moment of British hostory?
A rumour has always persisted
that the baby was lowered in a
basket by a rope and whisked
away to Stirling Castle for safety
with the Earl of Mar. It seems a
strangely dangerous way to treat
a living infant, but a far less
perilous exit for a corpse,
The window from which this
hazardous operation was made
is almost immediately over the
coffin stone. It was commonplace
in those days for a child to sicken
and die in the first hours of life,
Did this fate overtake the infant
son of Mary, Queen of Scots, and
was he swiftly replaced by a
counterfeit prince?
Mary, Queen of Scots, however,
was in Edinburgh Castle for only
the final months of pregnancy in
1566. She often spoke of a fore-
boding that the baby would not
live. Supposing these dreads were
realized? The Countess of Mar
was confined at about the same
time in Edinburgh Castle. Here
was a second baby to take the
place of Mary's child.
Who but a prince would be.,
wrapped in cloth -of -gold with
the initial "J"? Moreover, royal
portraits reveal a striking like-
ness between James I and the
Earls of Mar of that period.
All the resources of science can
never solve the riddle to -day.
When the coffin was first found,
news was sent to St, James's
Palace — and the order came
back that it was to be replaced
in the wall, sealed by the same
stone,
Before the casket was resealed,
members of the Scottish Anti-
quarian Society secured a piece
of the richly embroidered wrap-
ping material for their museum.
No other trophy was possible, for
the tiny body had crumbled to
dust on exposure to the air.
Above a small nail -studded
door — a door close to the pub-
lic entrance of the royal apart-
ments to -day — the coffin' stone
can still be seen.
Does it tell of a mother's trag-
edy, of a national disaster swiftly
turned into triumph by a wo-
man's quick wits? When Mary
Queen of Scots, was near the
scaffold, she sent a final message
to her son. "Tell him I have done
nothing to prejudice his kingdom
of Scotland," she said.
Did she intend this as a re-
assurance that the secret of his
birth was taken to the grave?

Trading Stamps
In Washington
The government that was born
out of opposition to one Stamp
Act now needs some sort of new
stamp act to get it out of a jam.
In Washington the General
Services Administration, . in its,
role of supervising federal pro-
perty, has collected a heap of
trading stamps that, to trail a
preposition; it doesn't know
what to do. with,
It seems that government
workers who bought gas with
government money to run their
government cars have been get-
ting trading stamps with their
purchases — and GSA thought,
under the circumstances, these
ought to. be government stamps.
So the stamps now are collect-
ing by the millions. But GSA
doesn't need the hundreds of out-
door cookers and frilly table
lamps it could acquire by turn-
ing the stamps. So what to do?
Since the stamps can't be con-
verted into money they can't.
be used to retire the national
debt or reduce the GSA budget,
two otherwise laudable aims.
Therefore, it would seem logi-
cal to find a use for all those
potential clocks, lamps, vacuum
cleaners, blankets, pots and pans
where they would do the most
good.
One promising idea suggests
that Washington's women's clubs
take over the task of pasting the
stamps in redemption books and
then conveying the gifts to suit-
able domestic and overseas char-
ities. If this takes congressional
approval, let's have a new stamp
act. — From the Christian Sci-
ence Monitor,
Roast badger is not the aver-

In An Oak Tree
Will the traditional English,
oak tree eventually disappear?
There are signs that it may do
so.
In Kent 2,000 acres of forest
and woodland are. being replant-
ed 'annually, but few of them
contain oaks. Says a Forestry
Commission official; "It is diffi-
cult to justify the planting of
oak trees because of the high
quality soil they need to grow
well,”
Forestry experts say that the
finest forest oak tree in all Bri-
tain today is the 95 -foot giant
known as Lady Harriett's Oak
on the Powis Castle estate in
Wales, which has always been
famous for its noble oaks.
This flourishing forest giant
thrills foresters because it is so
wonderfully straight and tall,
the first branch being more than
50 feet from the ground,
Five to six hundred years is
reckoned a good age for an oak.
But many have flourished for
well over 1,000 years. Said a
tree expert recently: "An oak
grows for 500 years, is in its
prime for another 200, and de-
cline for several hundred more."
But an old Gaelic saying puts
it this way;
Thrice the age of a dog is the
age of a horse.
Thrice the age of a horse is the
age of a Ivan.
Thrice the age of a man is the
age of a stag.
Thrice the age of a stag is the
age of an eagle.
Thrice the age of an eagle is the
age of an dak tree.
Taking man's "allotted span"
of seventy years, this gives 1,800
years as the age of an oak,
Sonia oaks become so veteran
that they have to he given
"crutches," This happened to the
Lassington Oak, near Glouces-
ter. Owing to its great age, its
weight had to be supported with
stout props,
Shakespeare men tions the
world-famous Herne's Oak in
Windsor Forest. The legend of
the "wold huntsman" who was
supposed to haunt this ancient
oak lingered until recent times.
In 1768 a floor, with benches
and a table, was put in the
great oak tree in Bowthorpe
Park, Lincolnshire. Then twelve
people dined with ease inside
the ancient tree.
An up-and-coming starlet had
been booked on a quiz show and
had chosen 'Word Definitions' se
her topic.
The MC said, "For your first
question, what does the word
'acquiesce' mean?"
Without a moment's hesitation
she replied, "Mink!"
That's proof ft wasn't rigged.

Farming And
"Book -Learning"
The assertion is made that a
young man, today, cannot expect
to be a successful farmer with-
out a college education. This is
interesting as we work into an
era when a farmer can little af-
ford to send his boys to college
any more, and suggests tough
times ahead, Yet, how different
from the old days when the
farmer was one adjunct of so-
ciety on which an education was
wasted! He was an unrecover-
able hick, muddling along in his
iggerant way only because he
didn't have intelligence and
knowledge enough to be any-
thing else.
I rememger a few old-time
farmers who had an education—
although they were cultural -arts
boys and in those days agronomy
as such was a neglected curricu-
lum, One of these fellows was a
Harvard man, which in Maine
doesn't mealt,just what it means
on State Street, Jim was tall,
lanky, and gaunt, and in his be-
draggled overalls would never
to tagged as Ivy league, His di-
ploma hung on the grain -room
wall of his henhouse, festooned
with spicier webs and milling
dust, and if you mentioned it
Jim would say, "I went through
Harvard to please my pa, and I
took up poultry to please my-
self."
Jim would come to town with
a wagon of crated eggs to put on
the evening train, and to look
at him you wouldn't think he
knew beans. But there was a
quiet dignity to his speech, and
he had an aplomb the other
farmers lacked. One year, mov-
ed by his interest in affairs, he
arose in Town Meeting and made
a speech.
Town Meeting harangue is
usually a homespun thing, not
what you would call in the clas-
sical style, But Jim started a
speech that came right out of
Demosthenes and Cicero, Point
by point it developed into an
articulate unit of great art. He
began long, involved, sentences
that hung fire until he dropped
in the key word; then he would
shift to, bright, staccato phrases
that clipped the air off in sec-
tions. His voice rose or fell as
some ancient Harvard professor
of rhetoric had inculcated.
Arriving at the conclusion, he
summed up lucidly, and reached
the final word with one hand
held high, a single finger erect-
ed, and an, appeal in his voice
which would melt a stone. He
sat down in a tumultuous silence,
every man in the hall holding
his mouth open in amazement.
The effect was total. Jim car•
tied his case without a dissent-
ing murmur, and the town talk-
ed about it for years, It was
beautiful. That's how the town
came to build a plank culvert
on Middle Swamp Brook on the
Maple Hill road.
Another educated farmer I re-
call went in more for playing
the character. He didn't have his
diploma hanging anywhere, lest
somebody see it. Once a year
he would dress up and go to
commencement, looking like a
minority senator making a call
at the White House, but the rest
of the time he lived in disrepu.
table old farm clothes. One year
he was gored badly by his bull. A
monstrous great animal, the bull
had everybody frightened, and
nobody was surprised when
word came out that Win had
been second-best in a tussle,
After Win got back in action,
he used to sit around and tell
of this adventure, hanging on all
the details with relish, and mak-
ing all he could of it, One after-
tboon 'he was telling the tale to
a summer -lady, and suitably ap-
palled she said, "Why, Win,
Whatever did you 'do with the
Vicious beast?" .
Win straightened up, struck a
pose of magnificent satisfaction,

GIVE ME LAND, LOTS OF LAND—Just a step or so ahead
of disaster, a Franciscan friar hurdles a wire fence to
escape a charging bull at the Mission San Antonio near
Monterey, Calif, Friends gave the mission two full -
and said with finality, "I et
him!"
But the story I like about
Win, which shows the value of
an education to a farmer, has to
do with the time he "salvaged"
a bus. Win's was a salt -water
farm, so he knew the sea very
well, too, and one night about
three a.m, a knock came at his
door. It was a bus driver from
Boston with an odd tale. His bus
has been chartered to deliver a
load of coastguardsmen to the
station at Rockland, and on the
way through town he had mis-
chanced and made a wrong turn,
He had got off on the country
road past Win's. In trying to
reverse himself, he had got
mired in the lane to Win's pas-
ture, and there his bus sat, hub -
deep in mud.
He had come to inquire if Win
might extricate him. Win pulled
on his pants, started up his
heavy farm tractor, and drove
over in the dark to have a look.
He attached a chain to the bus,
drew the chain taut with his
tractor, shut off the engine key,
and dismounted.
"Now," he said. "About my
pay.,."
The bus driver said the com-
pany would pay all right; there
was no need to worry about that.
"I ain't worrying, exactly,"
said Win• "I just don't want to
go through a lot of red tape and
folderol. Suppose you pay me
now."
The bus driver said he didn't
have any money with him. "You
better get it," said Win. "I don't
budge until you do."
The bus driver asked how
much it would be, and Win said
he figured it ought to be worth
$5 a ton, So the bus driver said
he guessed they'd better forget
the whole thing. Said he'll call
the. Boston office and let them
worry. about it. "Just unhitch,"
he said. "I'll make other arrange-
ments."
"Can't do it," said Win. "Law3
of salvage. I got my line on her
first. She's. my prize."
"Gracious sakes," said the
driver, or words to that effect.
"This ain't no boat!"
. "Then why's she loaded with
sailors?" asked Win, So he stay-
ed.hitched, and he got paid, and
that shows what an education
can do. By John Gould in the
Christian Science Monitor.
One evening, during a parti-
cularly noisy thunderstorm, lit-
tie Tommy was being tucked
into bed.
.His mother was about to turn
off the light when he asked
tremulously, "Mummy, will you
sleep with me tonight?"
"I can't do that, dear," she ex-
plained. "You see, I have to
sleep with Daddy."
A shaken little voice replied,
"The big sissy!"

The recent publicity and con-
fusion incidental to the ban un
cranberries has focussed atten•
tion on the use of drugs and
chemicals in the production and
preparation for marketing of
fruits and vegetables, It all leads
to one sober conclusion — that
too many growers refuse to
exercise the self-restraint and
self -policing essential to the cor-
rect use of many of the insec-
ticides and fungicides now in
use, states a writer in The
Grower, It is known that often
Canadian growers find fault
with the conservatism expressed
in the actions of many of our
scientists who prefer to play it
slowly when it comes to the
adoption of a new chemical, Of-
ten comment is made on the
speed with which the American
experts move in with a new pro-
duct and the delaying tactics
employed by Canadian scientists
who proceed on the basis that
they prefer to have all the an-
swers. But, the fault, in either
case, is not always with the sci-
entists, The various industrial
concerns seeking new products
and a bigger share of the market
are not free of responsibility.
They often move before all the
end results are established, But
of even greater Import is the
established fact that many grow-
ers are careless in application
of the various products; that
they fail to follow instructions
and thus, build up for all, the
trouble which leads to an em-
bargo such as the U.S.A. cran-
berry grower s experienced,
There will always be those who
refuse to wait for the final ap-
proval on any chemical. To such
people the warning is clear and
loud—follow the manufacturer's
instructions.

Perhaps the most illuminating
feature of the report of the Roy-
al Commission on Price Spreads
is to be found in the conclusion
that whilst the price index for
food at retail level rose 20 per
cent between 1949-1958 and the
food marketing costs between
farmer and consumer rose 84 per
cent in, the same period the
level of farm prices in 1958 was
the same as in 1949. There are
a lot of other conclusions tobe
found in the report but, in the
estimation of The Grower, they
are secondary to the above find-
ings. Actually, the Commission
was established to prove or dis-
prove the contention of farm
organizations that prices of farm
produce had lagged behind as
costs of distribution spiralled.
What will be done about the
situation, now that an independ-
ent body has ascertained the
facts, is anybody's guess. That
something can be done is obvi-
ous but it will take courage to
impose the controls which are
essential if the balance is to be
restored, In the meantime the
free •enterprisers will debate
other phases of the report such
as the yardstick to be used in
measuring profits. Actually the
uninhibited free enterprisers
' were at It almost before the ink
on the report was dry. These
people aren't interested In the
plight of anybody — their only
interest being complete freedom
to exert the pressures which as-
sure long profits — measured by
any yardstick — which some
purveyors of foodstuffs are tak-
ing. This limited interest has but
one result — the imposition of
the very control and regulation
the free enterprises abhor. Per-
haps the imposition of these con-
trols would do away with neces-
sity for the costly price supports
Indulged in. during the past cou-
ple of years. The free enterpris-
ers conveniently overlook the
reasons for the supports as they
yearn and shout for freedom in
the market place.

Forty Sh'ps
Carrying Cedar
"Bringing of forty ships filled
with cedar logs." So wrote an
ancient scribe in listing the ac-
complishments of Pharaoh Sne-
fru, ruler of Egypt about 2650
B.C. This handful of words
brings one across the threshold
into the period of history pro-
per. The dim tracks of potsherds
and other like objects are still
important — giving them up is
a luxury that the student of the
history of shipping cannot af-
ford at any stage in the ancient
period — but now there exists,
for the first time, the strong
light of written words to serve
as a guide.
As in the case of many phases
of civilization, the record begins
in Egypt. Very little wood grows
in the valley of the Nile. Cedar
most certainly does not, and to
get it Snefru had to look over-'
seas. So he sent to Phoenicia
where a famous stand grew on
the mountain slopes of Lebanon.
Snefru was blazing no trail, for
Egypt had been in touch with
this area even before his time.
Archeologists have found in
the tombs of pharaohs and
nobles in earlier dynasties .jars
and flasks and pitchers which
were made in Palestine and
Syria, and they have dug up In
the latter countries objects that
unquestionably came out of
Egyptian workshops. Were these
carried overland or by boat?
Before the time of Snefru there
is no way of telling. But his
words remove all doubt: some
three thousand years before the
birth of Christ a fleet of forty
vessels slipped their moorings,
sailed out of a Phoenician har-
bor, and shaped a course for
Egypt to bring there a shipment
of Lebanese c e d a r. It is the
world's first articulate record of
large-scale overseas commerce.
On the coast, not far north of
where Beirut stands today, was
the port of Byblus whose begin-
nings go back beyond recorded
memory. It was here that,
among other things, the timber
of Lebanon In Snefru's day and
for centuries thereafter • was
brought to be loaded for ship-
ment, and copper from the rich
deposits in Cyprus was ferried
in for trans -shipment. So con-
stant' was the trade between this
city and Egypt that from earli-
est times seagoing merchantmen
were called "Byblus-ships" whe-
ther they actually plied between
there and Egypt or not, just as
in the last century "China clip-
pers" and "East Indiamen" were
used on runs other than those
they were named for, Hundreds
of years later, when Egypt lost

.LESSON
By Rev. R. Barclay Warren
B.:1., ILD,
Portrait of a Pastor
Acts 20:18b-21, 28-35
Memory Selection: The grace
of God that bringeth salvation
hath appeared to all men, teach-
ing us that, denying ungodliness
and worldly lusts, we should
live soberly, righteously, and
godly, in this present world.
Titus 2:11-12.
Paul had spent three years as
pastor at Ephesus, In our lesson
he is bidding his last farewell
to the elders of the church there,
It is an intimate picture portray-
ing the love which should al-
ways exist between a pastor and
his people.
Let us examine the record of
.Paul's service to his people that
formed the basis of such mu-
tual love. Paul was, first of all,
a servant of the Lord. He wasn't
trying to win friends to himself
hut to the Lord. He called for
repentance toward God, and
faith toward our Lord Jesus
Christ. Paul was not guilty of
that besetting sin of so many
ministers, namely, that of with-
holding a truth which he knows
will be offensive to some mem-
ber of his congregation. Paul
could say, "I have not shunned
to declare unto you all the coun-
sel of God."
Paul was tender-hearted. He
said, "By the space of three
years I ceased not to warn every
one night and day with tears."
In him the promise of Psalm
126:6 was fulfilled. "Ile that
goeth forth and weepeth, bear-
ing precious seed, shall doubt-
less come again with rejoicing,
bringing his sheaves with him."
Paul was self-sacrificing. He
knew that bonds and afflictions
lay ahead, if he went to Jeru-
salem, but he declared, "None
of these things move me, neither
count I my life dear unto my-
self." He wasn't in it for the
money. The fact that he had
helped to support himself by
manual labour illustrated the
truth of his statement that, 'I
have coveted no man's silver, or
gold, or apparel."
Every minister should read
this lesson every three month.
Here is a portrait of a true
shepherd, a man with a pastor's
heart. He was not content to
preach and work in the church
office. He taught from door to
door. He loved his people with
a pure heart. He loved His Lord
more. To win others to be fol-
lowers of Jesus Christ was the
dominating passion of his life.
much of her power and could
no longer maintain her overseas
contacts, she felt the loss of the
commerce keenly. "No one real-
ly sails north to Byblus," wailed
one sage some four or five hun-
dred years after Snefru's time.
—From "The Ancient Mariners,"
by Lionel Casson.

Castle Haunted
By Half A Ghost
In a tower room of dungeoned,
historic Meggernie Castle, in
Glen Lyon, Perthshire, a guest
was sleeping when suddenly, in
the small hours, he was awaken-
ed by what felt like a hot kiss
on his check. It was as if his flesh
had been burned through to the
cheekbone.
Leaping out of bed, he saw
the upper half of a woman's
body drifting away from his bed-
side, fading through the sealed.
off door of a small secret cup-
board which had been hollowed
out of the thick wall between
his and the next room.
He rushed to it, expecting to
be able to open it, but found it as
firmly sealed as when he and a
fellow -guest next door had exa-
mined it some hours earlier.
With his cheek still smarting,
he lit the lamp and made for the
mirror, sure that he would see
evidence of a burn. But he saw
nothing to account for the sensa-
tion of fierce heat. He then de-
scended the staircase, Tamp in
hand, but saw nothing Chilled
and perplexed he returned to
bed, but could not sleep.
''Beau! I've had a terrible
night!" he called to his friend in
the next room when morning
came.
"So have I!" Beau answered.
And the two men — E J. Sim.
ons and Beaumont Fetherstone —
found that they had had an al-
most identical experience.
When Simons began talking of
it at breakfast his hostess, Mrs.
Herbert Wood, silenced him with
a warning glance. She was terri-
fied lest the Highland servants
should have heard.
Already she was having diffi-
culty in retaining them owing to
the rumour that the place was
haunted by half a ghost Only a
day or two previously a kitchen -
maid had rushed to het, saying
that she had seen the lower part
of a mutilated female figure flit-
ting through the castle corridors.
This tallied with what others
said they had seen from time to
time, not only in the corridors
but in an adjacent lime avenue
and near -by graveyard,
Later, Simons again saw the
half -spectre go gliding through
his room as he sat writing. The
temperature suddenly dropped
below freezing -point, as though a
biting blizzard had blown in,
Making for his bedroom along
a ground -floor passage he saw a
woman's face, sad and beautiful,
peering in at a window. And
about a year later Fetherstone
met a lady who said she had had
exactly the same experience at
Meggernie.
Relating this eerie story in
"Phantom Footsteps, a second
Ghost Book", Alasdair Alpin
MacGregor, who has visited Meg-
gernie, says that tradition as -

tribes the haunting to a Clan
Menzies chief who murdered Ills
young, beautiful wife in the
tower, because he was insanely
jealous of her.
To dispose secretly of the body
he cut it in two, then hid the
parts in a cupboard and announc-
ed that he and his wife would
'be absent abroad for some
months.
On his return he stated that
she had been drowned acciden-
tally on the Continent. Under
cover of dark he removed the
lower half of the body and
buried it in the churchyard,
The morning after the night
that he tried to remove the up-
per half he was found dead in
the tower, evidently murdered
by someone aware of his awful
crime. The matter was allowed
to rest.
But not so the woman's divided
ghost, which haunted the two
guests and kitchen -maid in 1862
and was seen again some thirty
years ago by a Dr. MacKay, who
had been summoned to Megger-
nie to attend to someone taken
ill.
Another tower haunting oc-
curred at Askham Hall, West-
morland, when Lord and Lady
Lowther lived there. She dis-
closed that guests in a bedroom
in the tower constantly com-
plained of its evil atmosphere
and asked to be moved. Indepen-
dently of each other they said
that at night they had seen two
men in 'top hats" (probably
Jacobean steeple hats) cross the
floor carrying a box.
Lady Lowther sought the serv-
ices of a well-known woman
exorcist who, after a lengthy
search, finally pointed to a part
of the room's oak -panelled wall,
saying that behind it lay the
source of the trouble. There
workmen found a recess cut in
the stone, and in it a mummified
cat, which Lord Lowther took
downstairs and placed in a cup-
board in his study.
This did not cure the evil
haunting, so a prominent student
of the occult was consulted. He
declared that it was a deflnite
case of black magic and the
mummy must be burned or
buried. It was duly burned.
"The body uncurled in the
fire!" Lady Lowther said — and
the manifestations evidently
ceased.
MacGregor's fascinating ghosts,
though, do not all inhabit old
castles, mansions or manors. A
tenant moving into a new coun-
cil house at Newry, Ireland,
heard footsteps mount the stairs,
saw the doorknob turn and the
door stealthily opened. She then
heard them ascend the next flight
and sound ovp_head.
Armed with an electric torch,
the startled removal men search-
ed the rooms above, but found
no one. No sooner had they re-
turned to their task downstairs
than the whole eerie routine was
repeated! They ran from the
house in terror.
RAINDROP CAUSED DEATH
Little did Roger Baer, of Zee-
land dream as he watched a high
school football game that the
rain was to turn his enjoyment
to tragedy.
A raindrop "shorted" a 1,000 -
watt floodlight which exploded.
Such was the force of the ex-
plosion that it blew a 10 -Ib. por-
celain reflector from its mount-
ing, and the heavy reflector fell
75 ft. on Baer's head, killing him
outright. The tragedy was doub-
ly sad because Baer had recently
undergone a successful brain
operation,

i1NGERFARM
Gvendoline D. Ctaeke
We had been trying tor three
weeks to get through by tele.
phone to our farm friends in
the Shelburne area. The answer
was always the same — "Sorry
— that line is 'temporarily' out
of order" — which didn't make
us feel any happier. What wor-
ried us most was the tact that
their water supply was control-
led by an electroc motor so, in
the event of a major 'power fail-
ure they would have no way of
getting water, either at the house
or the barn. Naturally we were
not surprised that we didn't get
a letter knowing that the worse
the weather the less time they
would have for writing, How-
ever last Friday we found a very
welcome letter in the mail. Our
friends had had their troubles
all right, but had managed to
survive — thanks to good neigh-
bours who had kept them in sup-
plies wheneverthey were able to
get through the snow -banked
roads, Hydro had been on and
off ever since the first ice -storm
but never for any longer than
five hours at a stretch, so they
were considerably luckier than
a lot of farm folk, By keeping
pots, pans and tank full they
had managed all right for water.
Communication with the outside
world had been almost nil — no
telephone, and mail delivery
spotty. Apparently they have
very poor mail service, even
when the road has been plough-
ed the mailman often makes no
attempt to get through. It seems
strange that in spite of better
roads mail delivery in some
placees isn't nearly as good as
it used to be.
I remember when we first
came to Ontario one mail carrier
in our district was a man with
only one leg. He could neither
read nor write but yet he was
known as the best rural mall
carrier for miles around. Far-
mers said they .could set their
watches by "Old Jim". He made
his rounds by horse and buggy
in summer and by horse and
cutter in winter, and, no mat-
ter what the weather Old Jim al-
ways got through. Although he
couldn't read he knew by sight
what letter belonged to each box
and of course he knew all the
people on his route — in those
days all of them were farmers,
many of then second and third
generations.
Compared with winters years
ago it would seem we shouldn't
have much to complain about
these days. And yet we have
why is it ?Obviously it isn't the
weather that's at fault, it's our
way of dealing with it. Instead
of relying on our own means of
navigation we depend on sand -
trucks and snowploughs. For
instance, we had arranged a W.A.
quilting party at the parish hall
for last Tuesday. Monday it
snowed quite heavily Snow-
ploughs were out and ploughed
the steep hill up to the church.
Even so I wouldn't attempt the
drive — not with a car With a
horse and cutter it would not
have been any problem, How-
ever, one of the younger mem-
bers was braver than I and offer-
ed me a ride. She had to take a
run at the hill several times be-
fore she could make it and we
got stuck in a snwobank com-
ing home but we did manage to
get there and back.
By the way, we had better
make the most of our winter
because the prophecies are for
another hot summer! Remember
last year
Well, we are just recovering
from a triple celebration. Dee's
birthday was yesterday; Bob's
birthday exactly a month ago
and our wedding anniversary
six days from now so the grand-
parents staged a family get-
together. To eliminate some of
the confusion that seems un-
avoidable with hot meals and
small children I had arranged
a buffet supper and it really
worked out quite well. Every-
thing cold except the Christmas
pudding—saved for just this oc-
casion. For space reasons we had

Canadian Tenor
Now Metro' Star
For an opera singer, particu-
larly a tenor, Jon Vickers had
behaved in a most peculiar way:
He studiously avoided photogra-
phers and begged off all inter-
views. As he sat in his dressing
room at the Metropolitan one
night recently, still decked out
in the unkempt beard and rags
and tatters o; Florestan in Bee-
thoven's "Fidelio," the husky
Canadian explained his reti-
cence. "I'm a strange person. If
I do my job, that's the publicity
that counts."
Vickers had done his job well,
Eleven days after his actual de-
but as Canio in "Pagliacci," he
lived up to his glowing European
notices by carrying off the tax-
ing tenor part in the Met's new
production of Beethoven's only
opera. Now he was only too
happy to talk. To the biggest
question of all — when did he
think he would be ready to sing
Tristan — he was most decisive.
"I am just ix weeks over 33,"
he said, "and I feel that singing
these big roles, Tristan and the
:,iegfrieds, would be asking for
trouble at my age. I am feeling
my way along, and I have no
intention of becoming a Wag-
nerian specialist. I sing dramatic
tenor in- the Italian repertory
too, for Italian opera preserves
the beauty of the voice more
than German opera."
Vickers has the big ringing
voice one would expect from a
muscular singer from Prince Al-
bert in the forests of Saskatche-
wan. If he keeps it under con-
trol and doesn't drive it too hard,
he may in time become just what
the Met's Wagnerian fans are
How. Brigitte
Stuck To The Ship
None of the crew of the
freighter wanted to look after
"Brigitte Bardot," the ship's cat
named after the famous film star;
so the skipper ordered'that the
animal be thrown overboard.
The "execution" order was car-
ried out in Marseilles, just be-
fore the ship, the Tadia, sailed
for Casablanca.
Upon arrival at the North Afri-
can port, the ship's engineer was
walking around the moored
freighter when he spotted a
black ball of fur clinging to the
rudder, which was riding high
out of the water.
Covered in oil and soaked in
sea water, "Brigitte" was alive,
and faithfully clinging to her
ship. The skipper issued new
orders. "The cat will be scrubbed
down in the galley, given regu-
lar meals and accorded treat-
ment fit for a heroine."

Defied Sharks To
Flee Devil's Isle
Not many of the world's most
famous penal institutions have
been able to match, in hard fact,
their sinister notoriety in leg-
end. For first-hand information
of prison life we must rely on
the testimony either of former
inmates or warders — and both
so u r c e s, for obvious reasons,
find it difficult to free them-
selves of prejudice.
It is, however, almost impos-
sible to exaggerate the horrors,
the spine -chilling, primitive sa-
vagery of life in the French
penal colony of Guiana — one
of the most fiendishly conceived
prisons of all time, ranking in
bestiality with Belsen,
Between the beginning of the
nineteenth century a n d 1938,
snore than a hundred thousand
French subjects were sent to
starve sentences in this hell on
earth for crimes ranging from
theft to murder. The settlement,
commonly known as Devil's Is-
land, was established on the
principle of colonization by
transportation.
When the convicts finished
their terms, they were obliged
to remain in the colony for a
further period — corresponding
to the length of their sentence
— in the hope that they would
marry and settle down,
Unfortunately, only about
seven thousand of the hundred
thousand lived to complete their
sentences, Although an average
of nine hundred prisoners arriv-
ed from France every year,
there were never more than six
thousand convicts alive at any
one time,
Escape is the number one con-
versation topic in any prison;
in Guiana, among the handful
of men who had somehow man-
aged to retain their spirit and
sanity, it was an obsession.
Almost w it h o u t exception
every convict there had made at
least one attempt' to escape; only
a few had succeeded. The rest
were shot, recaptured, or weak-
ened and killed by the merci-
less jungle.
Together with the islands of
Royale and St. Joseph, the grim
Devil's Island belonged to a
group called, with monumental
inaccuracy, the Isles of Salva-
tion,
With most prisons, the prob-
lem of breaking, out is the one
with which the inmates are most
concerned, In contrast, Devil's
Island was comparatively easy
to escape from; the real prob-
lem was, having escaped to sur- •
vive.
To make for Dutch .Guiana or
Brazil by land was to risk death
from hunger or exhaustion in
the impenetrable bush; to at-
tempt an escape by sea was to
court death from exposure,
drowning or sharks. Further-
more, even if a convict managed
to reach Dutch Guiana or Bra-
zil he would invariably be ar-
rested and handed over to the
French,
There was but one really sale
haven for fugitives — Trinidad,
eight hundred' miles away.
This was the goal of ten. con-
victs who planned a daring es-
cape bid in September; 1934. Led
by a man called Jean Duvernay,
the ten • were scattered through-
out the penal colony — four of
MERRY MENAGERIE
.-Pardon us, stranger—mind
Nettling tt little at'gunient?
Are you a sea horse?"
them were imprisoned on Roy-
ale, four on St. Joseph and two
on Devil's Island,
Th e y communicated, to lay
their plans, by means of the
food delivery boat which travel-
led among the t h r e e Islands,
Duvernay had managed to ob-
tain some money and conceal it
on his person. With it he bought
a sixteen foot canoe from a fish-
erman — negotiating the trans-
action through a reliable trusty
on the food boat — and arrang-
ed for the fisherman to row
out at night to a point off Royale
Island.
At midnight on the appointed
clay the four men on St. Joseph
and the two on Devil's Island
swam across to Royale where
Duvernay and the three others
were waiting for them, Then all
ten swam out to the point where
they were to meet the canoe.
Each of them knew he was
risking his life by swimming in
those dangerous waters. Apart
from t h e treacherous currents
they were full of sharks and
barracudas — vicious brutes
which had put a bloody, end to
innumerable escape attempts.
All the convicts on this occa-
s i o n, however, survived the
swim.
The boa t was waiting for
them. They clambered in and
rowed for the mainland, They
put the fisherman ashore and
after obtaining food and water
set sail for Trinidad.
Then followed one of the most
hazardous and terrifying voy-
ages in the history of small
craft. None of the ten knew
anything about navigation. They
merely pointed the boat in what
they thought was the right di-
rection and hoped.
For thirty-two days they en-
dured storms and turbulent seas,
drenching downpours of rain
and the scorching, agonizing
heat of the tropic sun, On the
twenty-seventh day their water
ran out; on the twenty - ninth
they ate the last of their food.
Exhausted, they lay on the deck
and waited for what seemed cer-
tain death.
Just when they seemed doom-
ed a British freighter spotted
them. The fugitives were in poor'
shape; they had been far from
fit when they started — now
they were little more than frail
sun -blackened shadows. Thank-
fully, they clambered aboard
the 'freighter and gulped down
the water they were given. It
seemed their troubles were over.
Then their hopes crashed. The
ship's captain informed them
that the freighter's destination
was Cayenne, French Guiana.
Taking on fresh supplies they
returned to their frail craft and
somehow re a c h e d Trinidad,
where the y rested for thirty
days. But the ten convicts did
not plan to stay in Trinidad-7-
their
rinidad-their destination was Mexico or
Panama, where fewer questions
would be asked.
They obtained another craft
and set out again. Winds buffet-
ed them and they were drenched
by squalls. On the twelfth day
their little boat was driven on
to a coral reef off the coast of
Curacao, and smashed to pieces.
Miraculously, all the fugitives
survived. They stumbled ashore
and were cared for by local re-
sidents. When they recovered
they w ere given yet another
craft — a fourteen foot fishing
boat — in which they set sail
for the third time.
The first night out their yard
parted and they had to' fight
their way to San Nicolas Bay,
Aruba. Here the y were given
shelter a n d they stayed long
•enough for their boat to be re-
paired. '
E v en after their nightmare
experiences so 'fur they were
still prepared to brave' a further
voyage. With fresh clothing,
food and cigarettes they set off
again, Three miles from Aruba
their boat capsized and sank.
How none of them drowned
will never be known. In a tur-
bulent sea they somehow man-
aged to keep afloat until a Dutch
pilot boat rescued thein and
brought them back to Aruba,
Still they were not defeated.
The colony subscribed funds for
a bigger boat and at daybreak
on November 9th, 1934, the ten
put to sea for an unknown des-
tination,
What became of them after
that is unknown. The ten were
tough convicts, but when one
considers the hell they endured
it is difficult not to hope that
they reached their goal — and
freedom. They certainly earned
it.
Who Killed This
English King?
Down in the forest—a beauti-
ful glade in the green heart of
Britain's New Forest—historians
have been trying to trace the
flight of an arrow which sped
through the air on August 2nd,
1100 and killed a King of Eng-
land, William Rufus,
They are investigating a mys-
tery which has puzzled histor-
ians all over the world during
all the years which have passed
since the arrow . struck Rufus
just below the breastplate, caus-
ing his instant death.
Who shot him? A stone to -clay
narks the spot where he died
while on a hunting expedition
and records that an arrow fired
by Sir Walter Tyrrell, one of his
party, glanced off a stag and
struck the king,
13ut was it an accident? No,
say many historians. They think
that Tyrrell took steady aim at
the monarch while the beaters
were not looking and shot him.
There is no doubt that imme-
diately after the tragedy Tyrrell
made a very rapid getaway to
the West Coilntry and beyond.
At Avon Tyrrell there is a
smithy where he stayed for a
few minutes while the smith re-
moved his horse's shoes and re-
placed them back to front to
baffle his pursuers.
-Why did he do this? "It points
to a prearranged assassination,"
declare some, Others have it that
Tyrrell never shot the arrow at
all and that another man, who
came from Aix, was the assassin.
Certainly' Tyrrell, from a safe
distance overseas, strongly pro-
tested his innocence.
A poor charcoal burner named
Purkiss, walking in . the forest,
found the richly dressed body of
Rufus and pulled the arrow
from his breast. He summoned
help. and It was then found that
the dead man was the king. His
body was put into- a cart and
taken to Winchester Cathedral,
where it was buried.
Pigeon Fanciers
Hate Falcons
Peregrines, favourite falcons of
kings and princes in the Middle
Ages, swooped suddenly into the
news recently when ornitholo-
gists said that these magnificent
birds of prey were breeding
more plentifully on the high
cliffs around the British coast.
Peregrines have killed so
many racing pigeons in Wales
that pigeon -breeders there are
pressing for removal of the Pro-
tection Order which snakes it
illegal to kill the falcons.
Pigeon fanciers hate pere-
grines, "the pirates of the skies"
— and no wonder. They know
that a peregrine, the largest of
the British falcons, can make a
"grand stoop" from four or five
thousand feet at a speed of not
much less than 200 miles an
hour and kill a racing pigeon.
After a headlong swoop it has
also been seen to seize its vic-
tim with its claws and either
force it to the ground or carry
it swiftly away to one of the
nesting ledges, called aeries,
some of which have been used by
peregrines for centuries.
To profit from good advice re-
quires more wisdom than to give
it. —Churton Collins.

ANGUS Bulls Put More $ $ $ in Your Pocket
Market your calves at 10 to 14 months of age.
Packers pay a premium for Angus calves because
they have a higher dressing percentage — more
beef where it counts — less bone, belly and brisket.
Only Angus or Angus crossbred calves are eligible
for Red Triangle Brand Baby Beef, Thirty-one of the
40 prize -winners in the carcass classes at the
Royal Winter Fair were Angus carcasses.
ANGUS Bulls Cross Best on Other Breeds
If your cows are horned, Angus bulls breed the
horns off your calves. If your herd is red or white,
they soon turn it black, The calves are 100% horn-
less and uniform in colour.
, , Settle a higher percentage of cows at first service
with natural breeding
