It is a scale reproduction of the landscape of which the Vimy Ridge is the central feature, and the hand that fashioned it is that of a consummate artist. The material of which it is moulded is plasticine, and it shows all the trench systems, the network of roads and tracks, the railways, and the streams, and, most important of all, the contour of the ridges, spurs, gullies, and the plateau. Every mine crater is reproduced, and every belt of wire shown as it ex- isted prior to the teriffic bombard- ment which preceded the infantry at- tack. This work of months was executed from aerial photographs, from maps and direct observation. Local knowl- edge was largely requisitioned, and the author of the model gladly ac- knowledges the assistance he receiv- ed from the Mayor of Vimy, himself a keen sportsman, with an intimate knowledge of the country.

On came the auto, it seemed almost on to them. Tommy tried to run faster and then every- thing looked black. The next thing Tommy know he was lying on the verandah couch and Mother had her arm around him, while doctor Brown was doing some- thing to his ankle that hurt and say- ing, "Just a sprain, nothing serious." Then he thought of Elsie. "Did they run over her," he asked. "Ne," sobbed Mrs: Snow, "you brave little fellow." Then Tommy saw there were a lot of people on the verandah and the auto was standing in the drive. One of the ladies said: "Real little soldier; see his khaki suite" Mother wiped the dirt off his face and said: "Mother's soldier boy!" Tommy thought it a great fuss and lie wished they would all go away. His ankle hurt and he would cry if he were not eight and too big for that. That night when Father carie home he came up to the couch and held out his hand, saying: "Hello, Captain, so the Home Guard found something to do!" Then he picked up the flag from the floor and hung it over a pic- ture and said: "Never forget that the Union Jack is the symbol of human- ity!" uman-ityl" "Yes," added Grandpa, "the men that sacrifice time, money and busi- ness interests are just asemuch sol- diers of the Flag as the nnen in khaki." And.Tommy lying there with his ach- ing ankle suddenly understood a lit- tle tiny bit the moaning of the great spirit of loyalty that is filling the hearts of the Horne Guards as they furnish the money, the food and the powder to set all mankind free. •ti The silo affords the only satisfac- tory means of storing fodder corn.

The food I ate continually soured on my stomach. My nerves were all gone, and palpitation of the heart and a fluttering sensation all through my chest, especially at night, was almost unbearable. I was finally compelled to go to bed, and called in a doctor, who said my heart was affect- ed, and treated me for that trouble. After three months attendance, and feeling no better, I called in another doctor. His treatment also failed to help me, and I tried a third doctor. This one said there was nothing wrong with my heart, that the trouble was due to my stomach. After treating me for a time he advised that I go to the hospital at Halifax.

"He was a French plowman who up- holds the tradition of war, Zola saw him in 1870, and I have seen hien on the edge of other battlefields, and hero he was again, driving a pair of sturdy horses and his plow across the sloping field not a furlong away from ie village where German shells were raising rosy clouds of brick -dust, So he gave praise to the Lord on Easter morn and prepared the harvests which shall be gathered niter the war," The fit of the tailor-made suit often depends open the pockets, The warning signal is given by an or- dinary electric bell.
