From Mase we went by train to the Hcy of Holland, where we took the night steamer for Harwich, a sea voyage of about 130 miles. The night was calm, and I slept soundly till 6 a.m.. when we were awakened, and looked out to see the coast of England quite near. -After passing through the Customs, we left for Lon- don and had :_ a good English break-. fast on the train. We arrived at Liverpool Station at 8.30 a.m. London, August 6th.—"When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life, for there is in London all that life can afford," said Dr. Johnson. This great centre of .imperial land and - metropolis of the world Is over 2,000 years old, has -jt population of nearly 8,000,000 persons, and is -the greatest and richest city of which history bears record. The modern city is 15 feet higher than the old level and extends over an- enormous area, and within it there. are ,more than 8,000 streets. Macaulay had theced 'reputation of having walked through every street, but no one will ever do , it again. It has 1,600 churches and 1570 newspapers. It is impossible to Idescribe its wonders and attractions There is a constant stream of double decked street cars and buses, cabs Coaches, autos and other vehicles o i every kind, all moving to the left in- stead of to the right as we do, and one hears an incessant roar day and night. All nationalities are repres- ented there, and the stores contain the .commodities of the whole world. Beedea our conductor$, we were ac- companied in our motor drives by a guide -lecturer, who pointed out the well known streets, buildings and other places. We passed by Trafal- gar Square, Nelson Monument, Na- tional Gallery, Picadilly, site of New- gate, - Prison, Mansion House (home of the Lord Mayor), Bank of Ear land,_ Smithfield, .

It was once the home of the Duke of Suther- land and was grander than the royal palace. Queen Victoria once visited . the Duchess and on entering said, "I - come from my house to your palace." , From there we drove to Westmin- f ster Abbey, which is the chief object cf interest in London. It is England's national place of sepulchre and Tem- ple of Fame, for it enshrines the memory of its kings, its great states- men, soldiers, poets, philosophers and other famous people. Here are -bur- ied 18' kings, 14 queens and 11 princes, A church was built there about 6i. A. D., but the present Abbey was be- gun by Edward the Confessor in 104 and later rebuilt by other kings. It is also the Coronation Church, for here is kept the ancient coronation chair containing the sacred stone of Scone, in which all the sovereigns have been crowned since Edward I. The interior• is very, impressive, but gloomy, and one feels like stepping very cautiously and silently among the crowded graves of the illustrious dead. One is confused by the great number of objects, the vast clustered columiva with arches rising from them to a great height,, the magnificent tombs, fine monuments, statues, busts, medallions, effigies, and on the pave- ment stones of the floor the many in- scriptions which we tried' to read and remember, as'we passed along. Among may others, we saw those of Pitt, Gladstone, Younger Pitt, Fox, Wilber- force, Darwin, Newton, Herschel, Old Parr (15tt years old), David Living- stone, and England's Unknown Sol- dier. In the poets' corner are Dick- ens, Tennyson, Browning, Milton, Chaucer, Spenser, Macaulay, Dr. Johnson and Dryden. In the choir are Anne of Cleves and Jane Sey- mour. In Henry VII's Chapel are Henry VII, bis Queen, Queen Eliza- beth, and close beside her, Mary, Queen of Scots. A white marble figure of Mary lies upon her tomb and around it is an iron railing bear- ing her emblem, the thistle. The 'shrine of Edward the Confessor is elevated on a sort of platform. Pass- ing through the cloisters, one enters the Chapter' House, which was the meeting place of the House of Corn - 'Mons from 1282 till 154/. Between the Abbey and the House of Parlia- ment 'is a chapel where Caxton and Raleigh are buried. Liberty Shop (built of wain '°_ of old battleships), Hbuse of Lord Derby, Mayfair, Marble Arch, Hyde Park, House of Duke of Westminster, Ches- terfield House (home of Princess Mary), Duke of York's house (an auto was waiting in front of it to take little Princess Elizabeth for her morning drive), Belgravia, Rotten Row, Lerd . Rothschild's house, Har - rod's (heist shop of "All British" goods), Kensington Gardens, Albert Memorial and Hall, Buckingham Pal- ate, St. James' Palace (home of Prince of Wales.where we stopped for a time to see the changing _ of guards). From St. James' Palace we Walked to the London .(Royal) Mus- eum, us eum, which illustrates the history of London, and its social -life and cus- toms in all periods. It contains the coronation robes of the - -King -and Queen and of former sovereigns,_. the w ding dress of Queen Victoria, and Diamond Jubilee Anniversary Seniices.

In the Bloody Tower the little King Edward V and his brother were supposed to have been murdered, and we saw where the ` bones were found. The Duke of Clarence was drowned here in a cask of wine, and Raleigh was kept here for thirteen years, most of the time in a small cell which was shown to us. - Ira . Wakefield Tower are kept the magnificent Crown Jewels, and the records. In the White 'rower are the • valuable collections of arms and arm- our. -.(Henry VIII weighed 250 abs.; his armour, 90 lbs., and that of his horse, 791bs.) We saw the cloak on which General Wolfe died at Quebec, the trappings of the horse of King William at the Boyne; a coat of the Duke of Wellington; instruments of torture, including rack, block and axe, piles to which pirates were tied), old cannon, and an old well of the 12th century. The White Tower, the old- est part of the building, has walls 17 feet thick. The following day being Sunday; two friends and I went to Church in Westminster Abbey. The church was crowded to the doors, but we made our way up one aisle and found a seat far off to one side behind great columns and monuments, but could not see or hear the_ preacher. Later, we walked around to where we could hear, and a gentleman n -gave us a good seat near the front. The ser- vice was at 10.15 a.m,, . and the ser- mon was given by Rev. Rupert Strong,- M.A., trong,M.A., Vicar of St. John, Drury Lane. We were given printed leaflets con- taining an outline of the service and the hymns. `After church ,we picked some daisies in the grounds, thea went for a walk. We cruised West- minster Bridge from which there is a fine view of the Houses of Parlia- ment and of the nasals Embank - meat.. Farther on we radihed Lam- beth Palace, the official 'residence of the Archbishop of Cantierbury since 1197, and nearby Lamth Church where we stopped for a short time to see a double wedding. We went back to our hotel for lunch, and then early in the afternoon _climbed to the top of a double -decked bus, and started for Hampton Court, which is fifteen utiles southwest of London. We pass- ed through some - of the most exclus- ive residential suburbs, (with its suburbs London has *Ott 80,000 streets). On the way, there is also London, August 6th.—In the after- most beautiful woodland.t�nery. The noon we visited the Houses of Permagnificent Hampton "Caart Palace ments. The handsome building ex- was built in 1616 for-Cardhol Wolsey tends along the Thames embankment for 940 feet, covers eight acres, and has hundreds of rooms and miles of .ecrridors. The Victoria Tower where The King and Queen enter to open Parliament is 340 feet high and more n 70 feet square: - The clock tower At the other end is 20 feet lower. The minute hand of the clock is 14 feet long, the hour hand 9 feet, and each of the four dials are 92 feet in cir- cumference. The great bell, called the "Big Ben," weighs thirteen tons. We were shown through many of the rooms, including the House of Lords and House of Commons. We saw the thrones of the King and Queen, the Prince of Wales' chair, and in the House of Commons the place where Lady Astor sat. In Westminster Hall, where the great state trials took place, we saw on the floor, the inscription marking the spot where Sir William Wallace - was tried on Monday, August 23, 1306. Warren Hastings was also tried here; Charles I condemned to death, and Cromwell inaugurated as Protector. Leaving Westminster, we motored along the Thames Embankment, a wall neat the river, built of granite backed with masonry eight feet thick and forty feet high. The drive way along it is about 100 feet wide, and on it is the Egyptian obelish called Cleopatra's Needle. We passed the Cenotaph (of the Unknown Soldier), the plain -looking house of the Prime Minister, Horse Guards, Charing Charing Cross, Waterloo Bridge, site of old Fleet Prison, Temple Bar (long ago many prisoners were hanged and their heads exhibited here. Once in Westminster Abbey, Johnson said to Goldsmith, "Perhaps our names will be written here." Later, when standing at Temple Bar, Goldsmith said to Johnson, "Perhaps our heads will be - hung here.") , Blackfriars' Bridge, St. Paul's Cathedral (closed for repairs), Bread Street (where Milton was born), and Dick Whitting - ton's home. We crossed the famous London Bridge, then soon after, the Tower Bridge, went np Tower Hill, and stopped to visit the Tower of London. The Tower covers eighteen acres, has an inner wall and an outer wall, and many different towers. It is an ancient palace, fortress and state prison, now a museum and bar- racks. It was used as a palace by all kings up to Charles II. Histor- ically, it is, perhaps, the most inter- esting'place in London. Some of the foundations are said to be of the time of Julius Caesar, but it was rebuilt by William the Conqueror. The grim old Tower has such gruesome mem- ories that the brighte$t day seems dreary inside these • walls. The old guards, called Beefeaters, are soldiers of merit. A small enclosed square marks the site of the scaffold, where most of the executions took place. We entered through the Lions' Gate, so named from a menagerie that once occupied the place. Here lions were kept to fight with dogs and hears, and from this came the expression, "Seeing the lions." Near two can- non was the spot where six German spies were shot during the Grest War. There was a portcullis over each of two main gates. Near the river is Traitor's Bate, where prisoners were brought in from The boats. Wallace, Mors, Crannier, Jane Grey, Anne Boleyn, Katherine 'Toward, Queen Elizabeth, Raleigh, Guy Fawkes, Duke of Bnadringham Il►ad Laud were among but later he was forted to present it to Henry VIII, and it ;remained a favorite royal residence up to the time of George 17.. _Charles I was imprisoned here. William III rebuilt it and laid out the gaideek in Dutch style. Since George II 'Itiftitt been occupied by members of the aris- tocracy who are pensioner* of the Crown. It is of ked brick and sur- rounded by a beMutiful park and grounds. We entered by the Trophy Gates, walked past beautiful rows of flowers to the Great Gate House in front with the old moat beneath, through Green Court, by Anne Boleyn's Gateway, up the stairs to Wolsey's Hall, back to the Clock Court (which contains an old astron- omical clock), by another stair So the State Rooms and Picture Galleries, to Fountain Court, and then to the Gar- dens. In one garden, called the Mase, it is difficult to find one's way out. We remembered the number of our bus, and returned to our hotel by the same one.

CORN BORER CONTROL The Agricultural Representative has informed us that several farmers have inquired of him recently, whether or not they will be allowed to con- tinue growing corn. This question, no doubt, has been brought about by the Act respecting the corn borer, which applies now to that part of the County south of the C.P.R. running PEA COKE For Ranges. VERY CIIEAP Gives Good Service N. CLUFF & SONS from GoderIeh East. It is not the intention of those in authority to prohibit the growing of corn. The Corn Borer Act has to do with the control of this pest. - Sug- gestions eat to the best methods of controlling the Corn Borer have been placed in the hands of all corn grow- er) in the area affected. The Corn Borer Inagector - is appointed to see thet the Act is enforced and that clean up measures are Won in order to control the pest. Farmers are advised, therefore, to grow as much corn as they wish, pro- viding they are prepared to- clean up their corn ground in a manner that will meet with the approval; of those responsible for the enforcement of the Corn Borer Act. THE HOME AND SCHOOL ASSOCIATION Our Education : "If by some strange chance, nota vestige of us descended to the remote future, save a pile of our school books, or some college examination papers, we may imagine how puzzled an antiquary of the period would be on finding in them no sign that the learners were ever likely to be parents. This must have been the curriculum of their celibates, we may fancy him concluding, see here an elaborate preparation for many things, especially for reading the books of extinct nations and of Grand Bazaar and Fowl Supper IN AID OF L S ' �oW —IN— Parish Hall Tuesday, Dec. 13th WATCH FOR PARTICULARS co -existing nations ; but I find no reference whatever to the bringing up of children. They could not have been so absurd as to omit all training for this gravest of responsi ities. Evidently, then, this was the school course of one of their monastic or- ders." It is an astounding fact that no in- struction is given to young people concerning the treatment of children, although the larger majority of them will sooner or later become parents.— Herbert Spencer, in the Ontario Home and School Review.

Smith, B.A., L.L.D., by the Alumni. Dr. Smith was Princial of the collegiate for 21 years, from 1906 until 1927, and the present Principal, J. R. Moore, M.A., who succeeded him, is only the third principal since its in- ception 40 years ago. The first prin- cipal was L. E. Embree, who held sway from 1888 until 1906. Rev. Gor- don Gould made the presentation of the portrait on behalf of the gradu- ates. "In this picture," he said, "we are trying to erect an altar to which G. A. Smith and the ex -pupils of P. C. I. can return to, and think, and smile, and recall the memories of the best of our days." Loftus Reid, the Chairman of the Board of Education, accepted the picture on behalf of the Board and School.
