It appar- ently started from a spark from the chimney, and when it was first no- ticed, .a small patch of the roof, about half -way up the west side, was ablaze. Before a line of hose could be got into action half the west side was ablaze. By the time the second line of hose was laid the whole roof was ablaze, and the fire , had eaten through to the interior: The pupils had sufficient time to save their books and to carry the, school library, scientific apparatus and desks to safety. There was on ly one casualty, a teacher being hit on the head by a flying dictionary. The damage will amount to several thousand 'dollars, covered by insur- ance. The School Board is trying to arrange temporary quarters for the pupils, as it will be some time before the damage can be repaired.

Plant is Destroyed Blyth—At noon Thursday fire was discovered in the garage of William Johnston, just off Queen St, There had been a grass fire in the fore- noon which was supposed to be left safe but had evidently worked its way under the garage. Fortunately it was noticed before it made much headway and was soon extinguish- ed.. At 7.30 p.m. the fire alarm was again sounded when it was discov- ered that the wool -pulling plant op- erated by Franklin Bainton and his uncle, Frank Rainton, was on fire. A drying kiln was used in drying wool which became overheated and soon ignited the roof. The building was formerly the old 'electric plant with the saw mill adjoining. The firemen did some wonderful work in confining the fire to the plant and fortunately the wind was in their favor. Damage was not so serious to the stock other than by water, but at 12.30 p.m. it again broke out and completely destroyed the building and the entire stock.

Sale of of the birthright, about B.C. 1827. Place -Isaac probably lived at the time of our lesson at Beer-lahairoi, in the South Country (Gen. 24:62). THE GROWTH OF CHARACTER And the boys grew. No two boys grow just alike, not even twins; and these twins, the sons of Isaac and Rebekah, ' grew up in very different fashion. And Esau was a skilful hunter, a man of the field. Esau was was a man for this world; a man ad- dicted to his sports, for he was a hunter, and a man that knew how to live by his wits,' for he was a cunning hunter; recreation was his business, he studied the art of it, and spent all his time in it. And Jacob was a quiet man, dwelling in tents. Esau is absorbed 'in the plea- sures of sense; Jacob is intent on the pursuit of gain. Now Isaac. loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison. One of the big reasons why we should be tem- perate and strong ourselves is in or- der that our children may be tem- perate and strong. And Rebekah loved Jacob. Each parent was par- tial to the son who exhibited oppos- ite yet similar tendencies, THE TEMPTATION OF • APPETITE. And Jacob boiled pottage.

These parts- of prune will •be tough after cooking. If you want your prunes perfection, becareful to separate emelt prune before soaking. Prunes should be soaked over night, then cooked slowly in the water in which they were soaked.

To Wash Spinach Spinach is a tricky vegetable to clean.- You think you have every particle of sand out . and then when you eat it, you find that there is still some grit present. As one little lad said, he knew there was iron in the spinach because you could taste it. The eastiest way to wash spinach is to use two dishes and lift the spinach from one to the other, When the spinach is washed the dirt falls to the bottom. If you pour the water off you send the dirst back through the spinach, but if you lift the spinach out into another dish, ' you leave the dirt in the bottom, You will find that you will lighten your work and have cleaner spinach into the bargain, if you use this common-sense method, Spinach requires no water to cook it, other than the water that clings to the leaves. after washing it. Start it cooking slowly and you will find that there is sufficient water. Save. the spinach water to put in the gra- vy. It gives it a delicious flavour, and saves the precious Minerals that otherwise go down the sink, Tomato Conserve d pint, canned- tomatoes CE -TIMES Hints For Homebodies Written for The Advance -Times By Jesie Alen ]Brown WHO IS RIGHT? Queer, the differences of' opinion people have. Oli 'well! That helps to make life more interesting. For, wouldn't it be appalling if we all thought the same? T heard two Col- legiate principals express their op- inions on the same subject. This time it was about books and reading —one said that he did not .encoatr- age his pupils to read much because if they did they were apt co pay too much attention to their reading, and not enough to their school work. The other one said that he thought one of the most important things they did in their school was to encourage the love of good books -they had a school library and a very efficient librarian who had great success in moulding the read- ing tastes, of the pupils. His idea was that if children were not en-• couraged and trained to enjoy good books before they: were ready to leave high school they were not apt to develop into readers at a later date. He felt that one of the best things that they could do for their pupils was to give them a taste for good books. I am inclined to agree with the latter principal. One of the best things he can do as an educational- ist is to insulate a love for good books, and the malleable teenage is the time to do it. It is a most im- portant part of their education. We are too prone to look on passing of examinations as the one -all and be- all of education. Doing Away With Examinations Ontario has taken a further step in abolishing examinations. Those who do sufficiently well in the term in the Middle School will not have to try departmental examinat- ions at the end of the school year. Both the above principals report a very decided improvement in the term work this year. The principal of the largest school mentioned ab- ove, says that in all his teaching ex- perience he never had anything like the good results that he had at the examinations at Christmas. Any- thing that encourages work through- out the year instead of cramming for examinations is to be commended. Promotion without examinations has dangers with unscrupulous teachers. But these are few and far between, as the teaching profession has a high standard of honor, In any case the good done by encouraging work throughout the year will more than from fatigue. Exaggeration is a characteristic of all intemperance, because the faculty of judgment has become blunted. And what profit shall the birthright do to me? The author of the Epistle to the Heb- rews calls Esau a profane person who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. Profane means not blasphemous, but simply secular, a man who is not touched to finer is- sues, judging things by coarse ear- ,thly standards, without spiritual as- piration or insight, feeling every sting of flesh keenly, but with no sting of soul toward God, And Jacob said, Swear to Inc first, and be swage •unto hitn. In the true spirit of a sharp dealer, Jacob re- quires the bargain to be bound with an oath. He will not trust his bro- ther without it, and indeed, he knows Esau's fickle temper too well to do so.. And he sold his birthright unto , Jacob. In patriarchal times the first-born succeeded his father as head of the family, inherited a double portion of his father's goods, and had the right to act as priest for the family and tribe, And, Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils, Now we learn just what Jacob was cooking. The lentil is a small leguminous plant, and its seeds are very wholesome: It cultivated in all parts of Pales- tine. And he did cat and drink, and rose up, and wept his way. His hunger satisfied, Esau went Doff quite unconscious of the meaning of what he had done, and entirely heedless. of results. So Esau despised his birthright: Jacob's transaction . with Esau could not convey the birth- right, but only secure the older bro- ther's consent to its transference." 4 INtiN MI NI 119 x�I m TIIIIE 0 ingh .t il>Qa, -Is w ., w ww � w w wl1Mw MI lAw wlr� . w www w ww ww Maitland Creamery 1 32G r IS NOW OPEN Advance Price ® 1Oc Call For Particulars • 1 ss VIVITED FARMERS' CO-OPE '�'1VE COMPANY 9 LIMITED. l ily Essailinsill l' s Phone 27/ I1IEIlIDIIwwlI111B=D ',El p Si Ontario. 2 cups diced apples juice of 1 lemon 3 cups sugar Mix ingredients and boil gently until thick, stirring frequently.
