GREAT BRITAIN TO PAY

Instahnent of $5,000,000 on
the War Debt.
A despatch from London says:—
The British' Government -has agreed
to pay off Britain's was debt to Can-
ada at the rate of $5,000,000- per
month, The total amount owed is
about $130,000,000, which was the bal-
anc.e due after the respective accounts
covering war purchases and other
transactions were set off against each
other. The 13ritish Government de-
sired to discharge this debt at the
par rate of sterling exchange, but
with this pro,posal the Canadian Fin-
DePartnient did not see eye to..
eye. It has been.a.l
.• agreed th. this
dispute is to ebe left -.in abeyance; at
present, and it is passible that the
gradual recovery -of Sterling will
minimize if not obliterate the o rause
of contention. before the time for the

monthly payments of $5,000,000 each
' are to be made i -n the interim andThisarrangement d,s already in operation.

CANADA LOSES, GIFTED
YOUNG AUTHOR•
—
Miss Marjorie Pickthall, Prose
and Verse Writer Dies in
Vancouver.
A tch from Toronto Toronto says:—
The funerahl of the late Miss Mar-
jorie Ploktall, the brilliant young
novelist and poet, who died suddenly
in Vancouver on Wednesday, was held
from the residence of her father, -Mr.
Arthur C. Pickthall, Toronto, inter-
ment taking place at St.' ,Tarnes'
cemetery.
Miss Pick -than was not a Canadian
by birth, although she earne to this
country when a smell child and lived
herrecfor the greater part. of her life.
S-he'"was born in London, England,
in 1883 and came to Toronto at the
age of seven. She was a pupil at
St. Mildred's Church 'School, later at
the Bishop Strachan School and a
student at Victoria University. At
the -age of fifteen Miss Pickthall sold
her first story to one a the Toronto
newsrrapars and in 1,913 she published
lu
her first vome of poetry, "The Drift
of Pinions." Later she svrete "The
Lamp of Poor Souls.," her poetry being
of an. exquisite nature. Her work
received great tribute from the crities,
Clement Shorter, of England, giving
high praise to "The Bridge." Much of
the local color from this story was
secared from a sunnier spent at Te-
n:or/to Island. It is now running in
fts. third edition. Mr. Arehibald Mac -
Meehan, of Dalhousie University, said
of this 'book; "For 'twenty years I
have been a -watcher ef The skies for
the appearance11
of .INV stars, in that
time only ,have appeared, the
Fleetest ii
of avioni is' a worrian, MaX-
jorde Pickthall.". In all herevork Miss
Pielethell has, truly oand beautifully
interpreted Canada.
The news of her early passing has
come as 0, great shkack to the many
who" knew her in Toronto, and the
Dominion erastains a distinct loss in
the death of this talented young rwrit-
er. Nev-er before has the a/Oak of a
Canadian novelist attracted. sach
world-wide attention and her death
came at the moment of her most as-

A despatch from London
says:—Experiments of a far-
reaching nature are being con-
ducted in the tinplate works at

ALLIFS DEMAND ARREST

Eleven Men Must be Tried by

A despateh from pans says:—The

ment, asking fm- the imrrrediate arreet

miss:ion in Upper Silesia hold reseons

pal Leronde'a report to the Amb'as-

Wasting Canada's Fish.
We have sometimes been described
as the most wasteful of countries, in
proportion to our size.. Meantime our
own Council: of ,Scientific Rese.arch at
Ottawa is unkind enough to say it is
true! It states thatthe .fish waste on
the Atlantic and. Pacific, coasts thri-
ounts to some- 800,000 tons annually
If instead of throwing away that
quantity of waste, Canadians utilized vv
it as the same matetiaL ould be -util-
ized elsewhere, it would be worth $10,-
000,000 aayear; which. iknot a small
`amount to add every twelae-month to
the nation's wealth. These 'facts were
discovered through an investigation
made by Mr. J. 13. Fielding under the
auspices of the Council for Scientific
and Industrial Research at Ottawa.
Encouraged by the Council an effort
to remedy this condition of things is
already being made, however. A
plant has been established at Cense,
N.S., for the production. of fish oil
and special cattle food from fish waste-.
