An elderly woman was found on
the roadside near Drayton one morn-
ing recently, by Mr. R. B. Robson,
manager of the McLaughlin Motor
Branch in Guelph. She was utterly
prostrated, and when asked what she
was doing there replied tbat she had
walked fromliarriston-19-miles-
that morning, the proprietor of the
hotel where she worked, so she declar-
ed, refusing to give her any money
because he claimed her month was not
up. Tho woman was in a pitiable state
as she wanted to get to Guelph to see
her only sister, whom she said was
dead, Mr, Robson assisted her into
his car and took her to Alma, where
he put the woman on board the train
and saw her en route for Guelph
where she arrived in the' afternoon.
Those who heard of the case were
loud in denunciation of the employer
who, under circumstances, had refus-
ed tete woman her money.
The wife of Private Dick Addley,
who is training in London for the
front, was robbed of $10 by some sneak
thief on Wednesday night of last week,
The robbery took place at the home of
her fatber•in-law, Mr, Chas. Addley,
and whoever the thief was, be knew
wbere she kept the money and just
how to get it. A partly opened win-
dow suggeste where the thief entered,
and a trail of partly burnt matches
thretigh the room from the window
shows that someone mast have been
awful busy lighting up and blowing
out about that time, At all events
the intruder found his way to her coat,
in the folded sleeve of which eho kept
the key of her trunk, where the coin
lay. After unlocking the trunk and
ewiping the cash, he returned the key
to the folded cuff of the other sleeve.
He then went to a sewing machine
box, got another key, and opening a
bureau drawer annexed Another dollar
belonging to Mre. Charles Addley.
Strange to eay he missed a purse con-
taining 80 rte. and a Toronto railway
ticket lying in front of him on top of
the bureau. He then made his exit as
mysteriously as he came, and nothing
was known of the robbery until the
family awoke the next morning and
made the discovery. Although the
local police have been working on the
case, they have no clue to the burglar,
but whoever ho is he was pretty well
versed on the Iocation of certain things
about the house. -Bruce Herald and

The Scope Of The Red Cross.
The scope of the Red Cross is practi-
cally unlimited. The idea of univer•
sal charity which actuates phis Sam-
aritan Society is capable of indeflnate
extension. The war has been like an
an immense microscope which has
revealed Red Cross opportunities in
increasing magnitudes.
The primary intention of the found-
p
er of the Red Cross was to give the
wounded lying ou the battlefields
immediate attention,
The Red Cross now aims not only to
succour the wounded in the actual
firing zone but also to nurse them
Mack to complete health in Base and
Convalescent Hospitals. It, has furth-
er extended ite scope to include pris-
oners of war, audit ie now beginning
to see that all misery occasioned by
the war, even in its most ultimate
effects is a proper object of Red °roes
activity.
The War Executive of the ijritish
Red Cross has lately decided that the
care of those totally incapacitated by
the war is work that properly develo-
es on the Red °rose, provided that
the funds permit, It is thus evident
that though armies may disband, the
Red Cheese never can disband. It has
become one of the most fundamental
institutions of modern civilizatiou.
Its success and prosperity are the
supreme test of our humantarianiem,
The State of the Red Cross treasury is
a decisive index of our capacity for
univereal1 sympathy.
The immense task which confronts
the Red Cross should stimulate the
public to endow this worthy society
in a permanent way. The movement
on foot in a great many Canadian
Owns to provide the Red Cross with a
certain and annual income is a policy
which should be encouraged and de-
veloped. A flourishing Red Crone is
as much a criterion of true national
greatness as a triumphant army.
A New invention.
Clarence Dudgeon, the 18 -year-old
eon of Rev. James Dungeon of. Flesh•
erton may become rich and famous
because tn. an invention to detect sub-
marines, which the British navy is
trying out. Of course no detailed
information of the invention can be
Fiven, but from what the young man
says it is evidently a double magnetic
indicator of some kind, one instrument
being placed below the water -line and
the other on the bridge of the equip-
ped vessel, with a finger that will
point towards any other vessel withi n
a radius of fifteen to twenty mile s.
This would mean that a submari ne
could be located, before it could its elf
see the equipped vessel, which wo uld
bear away from the danger zone. Ili
would make it possible for destroyers
to locate and:.blow up submerged
vessels. Is would make the German
submarine fietilla as helpless as its
skulking navy.

Our Duty To The Blind.
From Vienna, from Paris and from
Montreal come reports of arrange-
ments that have been made for the
assistance and instruction of soldiers
blinded in the war. The French re-
port states that a larger porportign of
the combatants have been, and will be,
made blind in this war than in any
previous war, on account of the differ-
ence in weapons and in the character
of the fighting. Ontario has provided
amply fc ' the instruction of blind
children, but has not been a leader in
provisions for ameliorating the condi-
tion of the adult blind. With the
added claims of the soldiers who will
come home from Europe sightless,
action in this matter cannot be long
delayed, Our blind soldiers and fellow
citizens must not be left to wear out
their lives in idleness and sorrow,
when timely a&d and proper instruc-
tion can enable them to resume their
places as useful members of the com-
munity. The Ontario School for the
Blind at Brantford is maintained for
the education of children whose sight
is so defective that they cannot be
taught in the regular public schools.
This School is not intended for adults,
and it cannot do what is required for
the class above referred to, without
reducing, if not destroying, its effic
iency as an instructor of the young.
Bona fide residents of ()near i o,
between the ages of seven and twenty-
one, who cannot see to read ordinary
type without injury, are admitted to
the School without charge for board,
tuition or Rooke. Applications should
be made to the Principal, 11. F. Gar-
diner, Brantford, in time to have all
arrangements completed before the
opening of the session in September.
