Algonquin Guide 1i:new IIipling When • a Child In India. 0.1d enough to remember when he dandled Rudyard Kipling on his knee, old Tommy Salmon, philoso pher and nature lover, is still guiding in Algonquin Park. No one knovs the secret haunts of timid game, or the cool, deep pools where the opal escent • trout hide as well as does Tommy Salmon. But back beyond hie long years in tie north country, with its adventures and mystericx there is the memory of a ehildhoor and youth in India. It was in Sim. that Tommy Salmon knew B,udyarc Kipling as a child. He was bort there in 1850, when his father wa colonel of the 57th Native Bengal lo fantry, then stationed at that district A brother officer of Col. Salmon wa, the father of Rudyard Kipling, se 01 children of the two families p;ayct together under the eyes of their na tive nurses, Rudyard Kipling •we' much younger than Tommy, so be ol ten took the little lad on his knee tell him stories, or took him ridini pick -a -back. Then came the' ominous days of VI, second Indian mutiny, says a writs in the Toronto Star Weekly. The.* were natives in the command of Col Salmon who iirt raised the cry el rebellion and killed several of thei. officers. A few days before the cut - break Col. Salmon had been taken U. and was removed to hospital. Whet') ing cough developed and that undig- nified, childish malady saved the llfu •of the colonel and all his family, since he was out of the way of be mutineers. A faithful Sikh orceAy smuggled • his wife and family through the lines of the mutinous In- dian troopers to a neighboring mili- tary post. The colonel was inivalided home and the family soon all left for England. • Some of Tom's *uncles were sea captains and frequently the lad was taken aboard for jaunts into strange places, in Africa, China and other faraway parts. Finally, by the time he was in his thirties, he was in Can- ada, an imnai,grant and a pioneer. Be- ing fond of far places he decided that he wanted to get into virgin territor:,, so he walked into the Lake of Bays •district and- became one of the vers first settlers there. He hewed a home and a clearing out of the forest and learned there and. then, half a cen- tury ago, the 'foundations for his wood lore. Hunting and trapping was then a serious business on which lire and sustenance depended. He learned the tricks of making birch bark ca- noee from the Indians and later he e went into the businesi of manufac- turing snowshoes. Even to -day Sal- mon snowshoes are noted throughout the north for their good qualities. t Just before the war Tommy Sal- , mon decided to settle down to. a dig- nified old age, but when war did come it drew all the young guides f out of the park and Tommy Salmon was very much in demand again. He could not deny the call of the lakes and forests and. so he went back to the business of pointing out excellent fishing holes to parties who could only steal occasional visits into the old Indian hunting ground. He is an artist in the manufacture of flies that lure the most reluctant and elusive of speckled beauties when all other lures fail, and in a canoe he is as straight-backed and deft as an Indian chief.

MANY INVENTIONS. Many Patents Applied for In the Old Country. Inventors have been busier then ever last year, the number of pa- tents applied for in the Old Country during 1929 being over 39,800, which is well in advance of the prev- ious record -38,556 in 1928. According to a well-known firm of patent agents, mauy of the 1929 pa- tents wore associated with subject.; • that appeal to the popular imagin- ation, such as "Talkies," color eine- nanto graphy, loud -speakers, and tele- vision,The way in which invention has in- creased is shown by a comparison or the figures of 1928 .and 1929 with those of the early grants ot patenie. During the forty-two years' period from 1561 to 1603, for instance, the crown granted fifty-one patents, or an average of just over one a year. But, of course, even at a later period than this there were many inventors Who did not know they could proteet themselves by a patent, or who u,- lected to do so. A Toy With a Purpose. Perhaps the most expensive "try" in the world, and one which has cer- tainly filled the hearts of boys of a..1 ages with envy, was put on shor‘ at a London Underground station recently. This was a complete model of a section of the Undergrotind consisting of a miniature track, with three beautifully-naade model trains. The idea of the model is to show those 'who travel by Underground how the safety systen1 works. As the trains run, they switch on the red signal lights behind them. Then, as they pass from one section to the next, the lights turn to green, So the model shows quite clearly that there can never be two trains on any one section at the same time, 0, 1'. B.
