Even though my little girls had a closet all their own in -which to hang their clothes, they quite often left them lying around on chairs, on the bed or even on the floor. This in spite of my frequent reminders that untidi- ness is a most distressing habit. I hit upon a plan .that, has solved the problem satisfactorily; in fact, I never have to pick their clothes up' now. I bought several wooden hang- ers, a can of blue and a can of pink enamel, a can of shellac and a . small brush. I let the girls watch me make those plain hangers into wonderful) 'attractive things with the enamel. 1 When they were dry I cut from old magazines tiny heads and figures. On the hangers for party dresses I pasted fairy figures and butterflies. On the) hangers for coats I pasted winter scenes. On the ones for play dresses I pasted appropriate figures. There was "even a hanger for the nightie, with the figure of the cunningest sort of a sleeping baby pasted on. I gave all the hangers a coat of shellac and to one girl I gave all the pink hangers and to the other all the blue ones. • It's fun now for them to hang their garments each on the proper hanger.—'M.

Bob Garwick • glanced across the vast dining -room of. the Chatham Club and, saw -:Sir Alexander's head bent over his food. He saw the face in profile, and at itis worst. "Looks' like a fighter," he said. "You know Lady Anne's solicitors have briefed him in that little case of hers "Yes, I know. Absurd I call it. He probably won't turn up. Any newly fledged barrister could polish off that 1 job for her. He'll pocket his fees and he won't turn up." "Doesn't look like an invalid," said Garwick. , Lord Hemingway made no reply. The dining -room was more than half empty, and the tables near to him i were vacant. But the atmosphere of the club, one of the oldest and stateli-1 est in London, was such as to make men speak in whispers. The murmur of conversation in the great room was scarcely audible. Dinner at the. Chatham was not occasion for mirth and laughter. "Like dining in a tomb," Bob Garwick had said at the com- mencement of the meal. But the food was magnificent, and the cellar was the best in London. One could not get into the Chatham before one was ;418$ "`� forty and able to appreciate good' wine.

In -this section there were last year 56,716 men employed. In fish canning and curing establishments the investment - was $19,141,205 and the number of persons' employed 15,684, Since the war period, ,when an un- precedented demand for Canadian fish resulted in a temporary marked stimulus to the industry, with addi- tional capital invested in equipment and unusual efforts made to increase -. output, the ` Canadian fisheries have suffered somewhat in the reaction. It is pleasing fo note the tendency to return to more normal . conditions. That great opportunities exist for the industry is evident from Canada's substantial importations, having no regard to the Dominion's wide export markets. : The industry is suffering from undue conservatism,, which' could, , be remedied with considerable proflii to the exploiters by the introduction of capital into the secondary grocesses of the industry.
