The tall leader of the' aihrmattve side showed energy in this debate even beyond what was to be expected from his much -envied size, With more than his' usual fire Arthur Cur- rie made one telling paint after an other until there seemed nothing for his partner to add, and little hope that the opposition could refute his arguments. But they were a worthy four that memorable afternoon. Aud Currie soon found that his own points and his partner's were being covered by his opponents. Andworsel So many new ,points were being made that de- feat now looked as certain as success had seemed. awhile before. Itowei er, Currie was not losing tittle. He was snaking lightning notes as his opponenents scored. So, when the chairman called on bine for his five minutes' final reply, he was fully prepared, and confident once more. Five minutes in a literary society do not stretch out as live ininutos on a battlefield, In the schoolroom of the 8.0.1. they sped so guieldy that be- fore Currie had 'got up' his usual steam, the ,ehairman was calling "Time." What should he do? He had every point well covered in his notes. Be needed half a minute'mole. Making use of the ingenuity and quick deci- sion which have ,served him so well since as leader of the Canadian forces In France and as principal of McGill University, Arthur Currie made his pian, "Time," the teacher was saying it a eeeond time, a little louder, as the lad continued all the while as if he had not heard. At that Currie stepped from the platform, still talking, and started for kis seat. But not towards his seat did Cur- rie o. With his usual long strides, he reould easily have made it in three steeps, ..But not for Currie when he shad something to say that should be (said! Deliberately and slowly he turned tend walked off to the right, ibis back toward his seat, But his walk he put into "low.'

He walked Along that wall, shooting .arguments like bullets at every ,single step. die walked along the tack wall until he .carne to his own aisle. Then, as ale- liiberately as he had 'begun, he weaned rap that aisle toward the ,platform. un - ail he reached his own seat. Ills last !telling point he made .as he.sat..down. o Aebato. ANIMALS CHANGE COLOR. :Few Animals Turn +t rey, .as Mutt= Beings Do. Though many an animal In the Arctic regions will change its eoat to white for the winter months, there are few animals who turn grey, as human beings do, from old age. Ani- mals are, however, susceptible to fright and shock, and this may cause their hair or fur to change to White, just as in the case of -human beings. Domestic pets are naturally more ausceptihle to this than animals who are used to fending for themselves in the wild. The black coat of a dog will some- times turn practically white if Ike dog has a fit or fails victim to a very bad bout of distemper. Cats are not immune from shook. In one recent case a black cat was pet on board' a Lowestoft drifter. The crew were forced to abandon the ves- sel owing to damage occasioned by rough weathar. The cat suffered, then, the terrors of being in a small boat batting with high seas, and when the survivors were picked up its coat was white in color. 'Horses' coats often seem to change quite appreciably •in color, but this may be only a shatter of clipping. A ' horse that has been turned out for some time and then brought in to be clipped will become a light fawn dolor after the operation, when be- fore it he seemed a dark chestnut. You wouldn't know he was the same !- barge! •bousei Traces of Ancient Race. Prof. Leo Frobenius believes he has traced a race of sailor pioneers who sailed outriggers froze Southern Arabia to South Africa at least 4,000 years ago. He announced his theory after Studying hundreds of photo- graphs of ruins he discovered recent- ly ecently at Hama!, fifty miles from Char - war. He said the liatnpi ruins bore close resemblance to the great Mim- babwe ruins in Southern Rhodesia, and were from 4,000 to 6,000 years old. Details of architecture were identical, he said. Frobenius declar- ed he was convinced the Zirnbawes' were a seafaring race originating from the Sumerian civilizatien. Canada's '.Trade Position.
