Lord Wlliingdon, enact- ed the role of good Samaritan, to two stranded American autolsts on the Itivere dii Loup road, a couple of days ago. The Americans In question were proceeding towards Rivera du Loup in their auloniobile, when it suddenly tnriie<l turtle ou them as it left the road. The machine was practically ruined, and as It was In a remote country dis- trict the tourists didn't know wliat to do. Unknown to them a big, shiny limousine drew up close and a tall, elderly man alighted. Approaching the wrecked car and Its occupants he asked thora If he could do anything for them, such as give them a lift to the nearest vllLigo, or something else, after being Informed ot the mis- hap. The Americans In question stamm- ered out their thanks, but stated that they preferred to carry ou afoot and make for the nearest farm house, after asking the gentleman In ques- tion his name. A short while after they reached Uivere du Loup, where one of them started talking of the adventure, stat- ing, among other things, that tho car had no license plates but had Instead a silver crown on a black plate. The man who was getting the story asked if he remember what name the gentleman had given him. to which tho American replle<l : "Ves, If I re- member rightly. It was a Mr, Willing- lion." and he was greatly surprised to liear that the gentloman who had of- fered him a lift on the n ad when he was Kirandeil was no other than the King's Uepreseutativa in Canada, His Kxcellency, Ihe Guyernor General.

CROWDS CHEER • Naval Air Station, Lakehurst, X.J. Graf Zeppeiin-,' mighty 'German mon- arch of the air, landed on United States soil to-day, completing its third crossing of the Atlantic within a year. I.,ast October the hugj dirigible com- pleted its first round trif) from its base at Friedrichshafen, Germany, to the navy reservation here, where the naval dirigible Lo.i Angeles has its home. At 5.55 o'clock (eastern stan- dard time) this afternoon a speck was sighted 14 miles away to the cast yb Coxswain William Bishop, lookout man for the Ixis Angeles, and half an hour later the huge silver bag poised its shining nose into the sunset over the field. Mana-uvcring in salute to a cheer- ing crowd of ahuost 100,000 persons, the Zeppelin disappeared over ttie northern horizon and cruised over New York City before returning to the reservation, where it dropped its landing rope.? at 8.49. It was dragged to ,a stub-mast on the field,- pending its removal into the huge naval han- gar which will be its home until it departs on the return ourncy. The landing was accomplished 91 hours and one minute from the time the ship left its base 4,175 miles distant last Wednesday right. TRAVELLED 5,.3.';i MILES. An average .speed of approximately 45 miles an hour was credited to the big .ship up to the time it was first sighted, but the craft slowed down as it approached it.s destination and rode leisurely to New York, and it was believed that the final poniputation would reduce the early average. Authorities estimated the Graf traveled S.-IIU miles on its latest voy- I .nge, including the side trip to New I York City, in 94 hours one minute, as I compared with the 109 hours, 58 min- ute.-, required to co\er a cour.se of 6,275 miles to New York last year. When the Graf takes off on its re- turn trip it wil' he starting a cruise around -the world, which will bo fol- lowed next spring by a trans.^rctic ex- ploration cruise. Dr. Eckener. comma ider of the Zep- pelin, announced on his arrival that if fuel and oil supplies could be taken on soon enough, he will start back Wednesday niglu to Friedrichshafen. The return flight will be the first of a i fourleg cruise around the world. «> The North-West Passage Halifax Herald (Cons.): Tlie peo- ple ot this part ot Canada would not venture to offer an opinion regard- ing the value of the Hudson Bay Rail- way, as a develrpment route for the transport of whatever products may come out of that subarctic region, but they always I'ave been, and are still. In an inqnlring mind regarding the feasibility of the Hudson Bay water route. People who live by and on salt water may be expected to know something of tho hazards of shipping and what militates against shipping operations. It is very dif- (lenlt to ci^nvince persons along the -â- Mlantic littoral of Canada that the Hudson Bay sliippiug venture is a Jerusalem. â€" In afi-cndeavar t^ cor- rejattj the littls-knov/n Palestinian archeology with that of Egypt, an expedition organized by Sir Flinders Petrie, noted P^gyptologist, has spent two seasons at Tell Fara, 13 miles south of Gaza, examining two mounds of ruins on the Egyptian border of Palestire, where two lost cities of Judxa, Beth-pclct and Gerar, have been discovered. Tho expedition, Rays a special ac- count by T.ady Petrie just received here summing up the results of last soa.son, revealed that Gerar was in the midst of a corn country, as borne out by numerous sickles of iron and flint, as well as by the Biblical account of Isaac reaping a hundrcdfok! ; and that Beth-pelet, described in Joshua, was an important military centre from which David drew half 1 if. bodyguard. In speaking of G.'r..r, Lady Petrio â-  :iys: "Here was settled Abimelech, a Philistine resident fo: the corn ex- ports. Very fine weaving was done here in early times; iron was brought in by 1350 B.C., and furnaces were built about 1200 B.C. early all the gold is of 1200 B.C.; the allusion to the Ishmaelites weaiin.g gold marks the record as being contemporary. At the time of Shishak the lozenge- marked lance, the triangular arrow, the arrow with a barb, the broad dag- ger, the chariot models, and humped oxen of pottery, came down from over the Euphrates. The Assyrian inva- sion brought in eastern pottery, in- cense altars and the lazuli cylinder. Lastly the Persians built immense granaries here which would hold corn for an army of 100,000 du-ing three months, so that the route to Egypt was ;.ssurod. Few sites tiave so many contacts with the hist<ry of surround- ing peoples; the cities of Gerar illus- strate crd amplify the ancient records. Professor P-'trie found that 19 out of 'iH areas containing cities men- tioned in the Book of Joshua retain their Old Testament r.ames. In the present season the work has gone lower, and under the fort and residency of the Roman age have been found an earlier fort and residency. Before 1600 B.C. the Hylcsos, or shepherd kings, had dominated this district. Their history, as it emerges will be helpful in determining the dat- ing of the middle period of Egyptian history and with it the dating of early Europe, and this increases the im- portance of the Ilyksos. These people had cut a vast earthwork round the flanks of the Tell, with a trench 80 feet wide, descending 28 feet into a -litch and rising 62 feet to the fort, with steep glacis slopes as in Egypt and Syria, copied from Ce.itral Asia. Their tombs contained daggers, toggle- pins and many scarabs â€" one with the name of a new king (raising the num- ber to ;14 known kings). It may now be assumed that at the end of their time they ruled Egypt and Palestine under one lordship In Drydocks "Hovir fresh .Mr. question!' Misfi l"i.ih Eel w h n -<• sound one. Hertzog's Government Glasgow Bulletin: In every way during Its term ot office, which has just been renewed, this party lias ex- hibited Its dislike of the Imperial con- nection: it has fliuted the old British sentiment in its "flag" policy, Its de- termination to "do what it likes with its niggers."

Buy at Home Naval Parity Washington Post: (President Hoo- ver's oilier to suspend construction of three of the five American cruisers,, now building, is strongly criticized.) It is unfortunate in more ways than one that the President has been per- suaded to take advantage ot a tech- nicality even though his action may weather the storm certain to arisa when the Senate convenes. Whoever advised Mr. Hoover to trade the ex- pre.ssed will of the .\merican people for a mess of British disarmament pottage rendered poor service Indeed. In the first place it was calculated to weaken the foundations of naval re- duction negotiations at a time when confidence of the American people is badly 1. -edod to counteract the Im- pression that the United States Is al- together too likely to be the easiest sort of victim to British diplomacy.
