YOUNG PRINCES. Four hundro'l and forty four year ago, on the 17th of August 1=183 'ling Edward V and his y-oungar bro- ther, lib:hard, Duke of York, were I assassinated at the instigation of 1 their infamous uncle, the Duke of Gloucester, afterwards lacherd 1I1, 1 who paved his way to the throne by perpetrating a series of the roost dia- bolical deeds recorded in the history of Britain. When Edward IV died in the month of April 1483 his oddest Don and heir, Edward, was only twelve years of age, and the Duke of Glou- cester was appointed to act as regent' during the minority of the youthful sovereign. At first the Duke made 'i great show of loyalty and affection towards the two sons of 1ti dead brother, but after he had succeeded in removing them front the custody of their mother he discarded his mask of friendship. The boys .wore taken to the Tower of London, where, al- though installed in the royal resi- dence within its walls with consider- able pomp and ceremony, they were completely in the power of their un- scrupulous uncle, who at once com- menced his campaign to secure the 'Krone for himself. The Duke imprisoned or murdered every prominent person possessing the power or the inclination to thwart his design, and then made the false assertion that the princes were not the legitimate sons of his brother, a fact which, if it had been true, would have made him the rightful heir to the throne. His wicked scheme succeeded so well that the citizens of London soon oegged him to become King, and he, after mak- ing a show of cleverly- assumed re- luctanee, gracefully coneeste I. Ho was crowned in Wostnini:ter Abbey an the lith of July, alter whir•h he made a royal progress through the country, and he was staying' at 1•Varwick when he despatch ed orders to Sir Robert 13rac•kenbut'y, the Governor of the Tower, that 110 was to (lrrange to have the princes murdered secretly. Sir iluhert re- fused to obey, and was subsequently ordered to hand over his keys for one night to Sir James Tyrre'l, the Master of the, Royal Horse, who made no scruples about c.•onnnitting the foul dee').

In the centre of a Christian settlor•• meat in the jungle at Medak, Hyder- abad, India, stands a Christian church of the proportions of a cathe- dral. This is the central place or worship for the great community of Indian Christians, numbering over 50,000, who have gathered around the Rev. C. W. Posnett, a Wesleyan missionary, as a result of his thirty years' work in this native state. The church was opened a year ago, but there seemed something lacking in its beautiful interior, despite the marbles and many tinted tiles. There was no stained glass in the windows. Six thousand Indian Christians, most of them former outcastes, have given the money for a window, designed by Frank 0. Salisbury, a well-known British artist. The subject is the Ascension, and Mr. Sa'lisbuiy says of the window: "The desire of the don- ors was that their Church should be as beautiful as any Mohammedan mosque or Hindu temple, and I trust that my work will help them to rea- lize their ideal of beauty se an aid to worship." Banff -Windermere Highway. The Banff -Windermere motor high- way extends through 104 miles of wonderful mountain scenery to Rocky Mountains and Kootenay National Parks.

Passing through Marble canyon it then descends into the valley, crosses the Kootenay and Vermilion rivers, rises to cross Sin- clair summit, drops down to Rtttiittiu hot springs, passes through the Don Gates and Sinclair canyon, and winds out on to the floor of the Columbia valley, joining at Invormere the Brit- ish Columbia provincial highway, Round legs and flatter ones, Thin legs anri flitter ones, Especially the latter ones, Showing their knee0es.

The following letter to the Police Magistrates, shows the attitude of the Department of Public Highways respecting the observance of the Highway Traffic Act: - Dear Sir: -As you are aware, the policy of this Department with re- spect to the traffic latus, leis been consistently to educate, aid and er- courag'e, ranter than coerce the mo- torist into habitual observance of the provisions of the act and in pur- suance of this policy, officers have been instructed to warn rather than prosecute for the so-called seiner in- fractions. While the great majority of moto•- abor costs c je aced wit ."u t a or s n Of all items entering into the cost of crop production, labor is the one item that' can be reduced.. And the is the adoption of mechanical power and modern farm machinery. A cord' on farmer has a greater cnntici°y for work. He can accomplish 2 or 3 time' as rnuch as he did before and with greater ease -and convenience for himself.
