CATHOLIC BISUQP
PAYS TRIBUTE TO
LATE J', STALKER
An item that will be of unusual in-
terest and gratification to many In-
gersoll people, appears in the March
issue of The Catholic Record, just
issued..
The item has reference to Bishop
elect O'Connor, and to his former.
teacher, the late Joseph Stalker, for-
mer principal of Winghem Public
school. The late Mr, Stalker was one
of the most -beloved of teachers, not
only by his pupils and teachers, but
by the public in general.
Rev. e James T. Foley, D.D., one of
the editors of The Catholic Record,
published at London, in referring to
the elevation of the noted son of the
church, has the following . to say:
"'We asked the Bishop -elect to tell
us what teacher exercised the great-
est influence 'in the formation of his
character.
This is the letter he wrote in re-
ply; it is characteristic andeveali
x ng.
It will be read with interest and sync
pathy by Catholicsand non-Catholics.
St. Peter's Seminary, London,
February 18, 1930.
"Dear Mr. Foley—In 'acceeding.to
your request to recall the teacher who
had thegreatest influence on my life,
I must Rink iiiy reference to those
early years when the pupil is most
impi'essionable and for that reason'
perhaps, the teacher exercises the
greatest influence over him.
"I owe too much to too many tea-
chers in later life to risk a distinction
that might be invidious and .unjust.
"My memory then, carries me back
to the elementary school and excludes
the snarly valuable educational influ-
ences of later years.
"My first teacher in the ~elemen-
tary schools was Charles Fraser, a
brilliant young man. Blit, there is
one who stands out most •prominent-
ly in my memory,' a teacher in an un-
graded country school in which he
prepared me for an entrance to
Normal certificate. Re was a wonder-
ful teacher. To use a strange para-
dox, he could teach more than he
knew. His name was Joseph Stalk-
er. He died a few years ago in In-
gersoll, and though he was a Pro-
testant, a Catholic Bishop -elect is
glad to place upon his grave this tri-
bute of gratitude and reverence."
I remain, .
Faithfully yours,
D O'CONNOR.

In Montreal the other day, Mr.

from Milton, and proceeding toquote
from Matthew Arnold and toward the

and science, and that even up to the

Liquor into 'United States
More than 150 ships are now en-
gaged in smuggling liquor late the
United States from the high seas.
And for every liquor runner captured
by the 75 or so coast guard vessels
engaged in patrolling the shores of
the nation, liqupr worth as much as
22,500,000 or $3,000,000 gets by.
This is the information gleaned
from records in coast guard offices In
New London, Conn., where a record
is .Rept of every known andsuspected
liquor smuggler.
The average cargo of a liquor car-
rier is between 200 and 400 carers,
although occasionally a much larger
cargo is found, .k ain some rum
runners operate on' a small Seale, and
40 ox• 50 eases roe.y be their maxi-
mum load. The boats get to the
shores of the United States under
coverof rdarkness kne ss or in foggy -
weather
-and many fishing craft which
make
regular runs are used to aid them in
transporting contraband to shore.
The coast guard, although it has
75 vessels, is outnumbered two to
one by the rum runners in number
of vessels, but the disadvantage is
even greater, for not more than half
of the patrolboats can be operated
'at one time. Repairs, loading of
fresh supplies, and resting periods
for the . crews tie up many of the
craft --while the smuggler keeps on
running.
In most instances coast guard of-
ficers find that the men really re-
sponsible for
e-sponsiblefor rum running are never
at sea.
They live comfortably at shore,
perhaps in some large city, and one
man may direct the operations of a
number of boats. The men who take
allh
t e chance it-
s and who do the •ac
teal smuggling, work on a comnlds-
sion basis usually. The backer or
owner of the boat takes 50 or 60
per cent. of the profits for himself,
and the rest is divided among the
erews.
Most liquor now being smuggled
into the country, officials say, comes
from the French island of St. Pierre l
et Miquelon, south of Newfoundland.

Japan's Population %umbers Nearly
Sixty -Tree Millions.
The population of Japan proper,
including Hokkaido, is estimated at
62,938,200' persons, according to the
latest census taken. The population
is classified according to prefectures,
cities, towns and county districts. It
includes both the army and navy as
well as sailors on merchant ships and
persons in prisons.
Men exceed women by 428,600,
the male population being placed at
31,683,400 and the female at 81,-

1;254,800.
The urban population is ro'ughiy
one-third of that of the county dis-
tricts, the figures for the former be-
ing 15,876,500 and those for the lat-
ter 47,561,700.
Cities with populations of over
100,000 persons number 28. Osaka
is still the largest city in Japan, as
far as its population is concerned,
with 2,408,800 persons residing with-

Tokio is estimated at 2,294,600. Na-

NEW LARGEST AIRPLANE.
Speed of 125 Miles to Be Attained
and Designed for Military Work.
What is believed to be the'largest
airplane in the world has been re-
cently
ecently sucoeesfully tested at the Gal-
larate airdrome, near Milan, in the
presence of Gen. Italo Balbo, the Air
Minister. The inventor and builder
of the machine is Gianni Caproni,
and the airplane is known as the
Caproni 90.
The machine weighs 15 tons, and
is able to carry a load of 15 tons,
It is fitted with six ,engines (coupl-
ed), each, of 100 horsepower, When
it is fully loaded its maximum speed
Is 128 miles 'an hour, and it is able
to carry fuel for a flight of 70 hours.
Its dimension are: width across
wings 163 feet, height 40 feet, and
length 73 feet. The machine has been
designed for military purposes, but it
can be fitted for civil .flying, and in
the latter case it can carry about 100
•passengers.
Oddities of Etiquette.
Etiquette in Scandinavia is a thing
to be dreaded, especially. in Sweden.
Even the former should addressa
person by his full diplomatic, politi-
cal, professional or commercial title.
Thus one meets Mr. the Assistant to

the former Manufacturer of :Blood

Denmark is far less formal, both
in speech and attire, but at the end

APPEARANCE

COMFORT
VALUE
THE new Durant 6-14 has such striking .APPEARANCE and is
so apparently a COMFORTABLE car that it onlyrequilla testa,
of its PERFORMANCE for one to fully realize its true VALUE.'
Admiration Lor its appearance is accounted for by its - attractive
colors and general design .... a low -built car with long, flowing
limes and spear -point decorative theme throughout. Large doors,
wide seats, deep cushions and 'a surplus of interior roominess.
immediately suggest .a new standard of riding comfort.
The merits of the new motor are best appreciated when the 644=
is in actual road performance. After you have seen this new'car,.
ask your dealer to give you a demonstration in order that you may'
judge its new riding and driving qualities for yourself.
