The wooden sec- tion spanned the water of the lake at low water, but at high water they spread out for practically the whole width of 643 feet, and there was the important circumstance that the em- bankments were raised upon the tim- bers of the old bridge whish were sunk to the bottom of the lake If the respondent's contention were well founded there would be no escape from holding that where a small bridge was built across a rivulet which ran through a swamp to be a bridge over 300 feet in length if the length of the made up road leading to and from, the bridge were to be included in measuring the length ,,of the bridge and they together with what I may call the bridge proper exceeded in length 300 feet, and. that because in the spring and fall the- -swamp would have been impassible if; the road had not been made up.

When Roumania entered so hope- fully into the war a few months ago, it fell to her lot to capture, the first real Huns that the war has affected. We have all heard of the ravages of the "Huns" in Belgium, but these are no more the true Huns than the Anzacs are. But when the Rouman- ians first took the town which goes by the futuristically musical name of Szekely-Udvarhely, they probably captured more than one full-blooded Bun. • For the town itself is said by tradition to' have been founded as a settlement by the men of the terrible Attila himself. - "Most of the 8,000.inhabitants of the thriving little industrial town of Szekely-Udvarhely, the capital of a ., county of Transylvania, are Szeklers, one of the many kinspeople of the Magyars about whom there has been heated controreray for year. Szek- ely-Udvarhely is in the heart of the Szeklers, 450,000 of. whom are close- ly settled In the mountainous region extending from Kranstadt on the south, near the Roumanian border, to Maros-Varhely to the north-west. Accordfug to the traditions of the Szekely-Udvarhely citizens them- - selves, the Szeklers are descended from a band of Attila's Huns who settled in this part of Hungary after a severe reverse of their leader, per- haps following his great defeat by Actius and Theodorie on the Cata- launian plains, near the French city County of Huron frena an order dated --Sir Melbourne Tait, former hief' Hungary `upas plunged into mourning; October 14th, 1916, made by the Judge Justice of Quebec, died on Saturday for three years after his death, which of the County Court of the county of morning suddenly of heart failure, He l occurred in 1095, and be was wor- Huron, On an application to hini by was 74 years of age. occurrd as a saint long before he was `the corporation of the township of -Mr, and Mrs, John McCartney, formally canonized.

Ladislaus L is credited with the scheme of this frontier guard, and it was the only one of the many acts during his reign which made him the most widely beloved ruler of his country during the Middle Ages.
