The Advance -Times
Wingham, Ontario,
Well, friend Craig, I just feel
weuld like to tell you a little of the
fine time we are having in this beau-
tiful city of Sunshine, They call it
the 'city of Sunnshine and. to back
that assertion up the Editor. of one
of the daily papers agrees to give
away free the entire editiem for the
day that the sun does not shine bef-
(Ire they go to press. That offer has
held good for some years and has
been called upon to come over less
than twenty-five times. There are no
cold chilly winds like you feel in Can-
ada. This is a real tourist city and
they seem to, do everything to en-
tertain the tourists. Theie is Wil-
liam's Park covering acres of ground,
with a large building for a band
stand and speakers platform. Then
the ground is nicely dotted over with
shade trees and good comfortable
seats capable of accommodating sev-
eral thousands and every day during
the week and twice on Sunday those
seats are well-filled to listen to a
a band of 25 instruments, the best
that is to -be had; also singers and
speakers. This concert runs for about
three hours every day. There is a
large fountain in the middle of the
Park also a large Bulletin Board,
about seven feet high and six sides
to it where every state in the Union
has a spece efo advertise their .meet-
ings and social functions; arid Can-
ada has her name on that board. The
Americans don't seem to know much
about Canada. Some of them have
heard of Toronto, are a little more
familiar with Montreal and Halifax.
The day after reaching here I read
on the bulletin board that all Canad-
ians were requested to meet the fol-
lowing Tuesday evening, at 7.30 at the
byes what is in shtore fer ye if ye
don't git a move on. "The goblins
willgit ye if ye don't watch out," as
the poet sez. An shure, 'tis no drame
I do be havin, fer ye kin see the wim-
min an girruls outshteppin the min
ivirywheer. In the schools, an ale-
fices, an banks, an .shtores, in Parley -
mint, an aven in the pulpits they do
be houldin theer own. Ye kin see
thine sellin books, editin noospaypers,
wroitin Insurance, runnin chicken
farrums an shpaikin on plaifoorms.
Shure, 'tis loike the shtory av the
camel that begged permishun to
shtick his nose into the Arab's tint
to git it warrum, an .purty soon be

he got his whole body in, an chased
the oyener av the tint out altogether.
Yis, the wimmin a.Ven want to git

who sit arroued lishtenin to the di-
voorse cases bein troid, will 'hey no

The noospaypers do be talkin about
the "yellow peril" ,as they tall 'it,'
mainin that the Choinese an Japan-
ese an naygur min will soon be run-
nin the wurrulcl, but, sbnre, there is
a peril for us min nearer home, if we
cud but see it."

MAKING MATO-GLASS.
'Ingredients are Silica, Soda, and'
• , Limestone.
Plate-glase malting was once a 19e-
eret art. The work e were protected
by heavy barriere and the penalty for
anyone who broke in was seven
years' deportation! Thoee days have
passed, but even now not many could
say how modern plate-gless is made.
At'oue stage, writes a Tit -Bits man,
there is a rhythrnic dance on it. by
Norio)) en.
The ingredients are silica, soda,
and limestone, of exceptional purity,
(Ind after they have been mixed in
huge mills the resultant grey powder
is ready to go into ,prucibles for ;dat-
ing, 'The crucibles are of a special
fire-elay, and have to be seasoned for
nine montbs or a year before they
are etrong 'enough to stand the enor-
dmeogtli,e es3heat of the furnaces -S.3,000
And then their life is but three
weeks, Each crucible, or pot, as the
result of three filling of the powder
—it sinks as it melts— ultimately
holds a ton of molten glass, afker
seventeen hours in the furnace.
As the powder' melts it first takes
on a heavy, sticky consistency, full
of bubbles, bit later becomes clear
and liquid. At that stage the heat is
reduced for four hours, and the mol-
ten glass is skimmed of impurities.
It is then poured—a wonderful and
spectacular sight—on to an enormous
iroa casting table, hollow and water-
cooled, and with a great roller cover-
ing its width.
This roller moves slowly, just
once, across the molten glass, flatten-
ing it into a broad plate -24 by 14
feet. The thickness is adjusted by
gauges. The rolled -out glass soon
loses its beautiful white-hot glow
and becomes greenish -white. Out-
side it looks coarse and rough, but
inside it is crystal-clear.
The next step is to cool it grad-
ually in annealing ehambers, and
then, after expert inspection of every
inch, it is ready for further treat-
ment. Cutters square it, and a large
iron frame fitted with rubber suckers
is lowered on to it by a crane. The
"suckers" grip the plate of glass,
which can then be moved for
"laying."
A circular iron table, on trolleys,
has its surface fiooded with plaster

the plate is lowered. Then comes
workmen who stand on it and tramp
it into the plaster with a curious
kind of dance movement. This is call-
ed "swimming the plate."
Embedded, the glass then goes to
machines which receive it at one end
and turn it out at the other ground
and polished. To a visitor it seems
perfect, but further inspections and
tests, with special lighting, follow be-
fore it is passed. •
A manufacturer whose methods I
have described, told me that every
look small compared to those here
and they are 'peeked every service,
even to the minister asking some of
the officials to come up around' the
pulpit to make more room. That's
just at a -regular service. One .Min-

In a Large Way.
California is noted for its queer
roadside stands, its unique cafes and
its climate.
There are in California lion farms,
monkey farms, alligator farms, os-
trich farms, fox farms, and possibly
several other farms that are not de-
voted to the raisng of alfalfa, ,pota-
toes and. other agricultural products.
It remains, however, for R. B.
Bilkosky of Alhambra to have the.
most unusual farm in not only Cali-
fornia but perhaps the world. Mr.
Bilkosky is the prosperous proprietor
of an angle -worm farm, It covers two
r 1 one-half acres. Bilkosky raises
n—ilions of these little animals (3311-
kosky Insists they are animals) year-
ly. Since he started operations four
years ago Bilkosky has shipped more
than 28,000 cans, each containing 60
worms, to fishermen all over the
country. The season of operation is -
the .spring and summer, as the worm
lies dormant during the fall and win-
ter months.
When spring arrives Bilkosky
feeds ground bone and refined corn.
meal to the babies in the hatchery.
The female worm, Bilkosky said, lays
an egg every day for a period of
eight months. An egg hatches in two
weeks and each egg contains two
'w'orms.
Worms are not put on the market
until they are two years old, 1311-
kosky said, and added, "I've known
of worms that lived twenty years and
grew to a length of twelve inches."

Fate's a courageous old fellow,
Assurance writ large an his brow;
There's' nothing about him that's yellow,
And he's sure of his verdict somehow.
His actions most persons applaud,
Yet soiree are beginning to wonder,
If his wink is as good as his nod,
And if sometimes, he don't even blunder.
His intentions may be for the best.
His judgments quite right, and Well -taken;
I should never suggest he would jest,
And have confidence in him thus shaken.
Yet Fate is now friend and now foe,
Inconstant, perverse, and provoking;
And though well the • old the old fellow I know,
I am never quite sure when he's joking.
Like justice he's thought to be blind,
He holds to his course as a rule,
Yet given a deft push from behind,
He sometimes will act like a fool.
If Fate has a say, in each Hockey affray,
As many a -"Fan" doth deplore;
To make an assay of a garne or a Play,
Would be just to make everyone sore.
So. when asked to report, T must firmly retort,
"Of the gam? I have nothing to say;"
In fact, and in short, I've no other resort,
Until Fate is got out of the way.
lf old Fate, he should die, in the sweet bye and bye,
And his sceptre and sway get extinct;
I would then at least try, though I'm awfully shy,
Just of Hockey to write what 1 thinked,
Jas. G. Webster.
