i a She picked up the coat and did not answer him, but to herself she thought, you are right. I will get what I want in full measure orâ€"I shall take it! She ran heér fingers through the soft fur and skipped into the bedroom. That night Doug brought her a fur coat of mink and fox as a gift from Btewart. She "You are not my white friend who is a king of the theatrical world." "Take your time, baby, ang you‘ll get what you want." A puzzled frown crosseq the girl's face. "I do not understand this. Why does he send me such lovely things and yet ‘mob: come near me? I am not good enougB, eh?" It was on one of these mornings that Stewart Blackmire was presented te the gypsy and he saw to it that there were others around who could say, if asked: "Why, Blackmire only met her on such and such a day!" moods and now, because she was so gay and hapoy with him, he had no conception of the vengeful hours she endured when alontg. He thought he had made her forget the episode in the theatre. The rehearsals in the mornâ€" ings had gone smoothlyâ€"too smoothly if he had only known. There was no love between the two, but the growth of a fine companionâ€" ship. Drug understood the gypsy girl to a greater degree than anyone else had, with the possible exception of the Dummy; but, unlike the Dummy, he was able to bring her out of her sullen Gay times they had and Doug did not care how much attention they atâ€" tracted. She was not a "dirty gypsy" to.him, but somsone who was different, and he seemed to delight in showing hbher off. He took her to dinners‘and night clubs and theatres and, outside of keeping her from dancing or telling fortunes, let her flirt and have her fun argq took kRer away when the fun threatened to become too bouisterous. DAYS wers lightened by companionship with Doug. Jim Dalâ€" strom was taken off the job and Doug was given the position of ‘"nursemaid" to the gypsy. Because he sensed <the loneliness of the girl, he took her on long drives out into the country and let her lie upon the grass and feast her hungry eyes upon the trees. He got some horses on Long Islang and toâ€" gether they rode over the countryside, and it was all Doug could do to keep up with her, for Consuelo"was a wild one astride a horse. danceg for them 10 days previously when their private car had been waitâ€" ing on a railroad siding in town. Doug takes the gyosy into Stewart‘s car. Btewart telegraphs his publicity agnt and also his friend, Louise, telling; her not to meet the train. Consuelo throws her arms around him. In New York a series of publicity stunts preâ€" pares Consuglo for h:r debut in the Follics, Crowds watch her everywhere she goes. Longing for green grass, the gypsy leaves ker hotel alone and finally locat*s a park. At rehearsal Consuelo does not dance with enthusiasm and then she has an altercation with Louise. Later she is determinéd to show Louise. the star, just how well she can dance: (NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY) theatrical producer; Doug, his secreâ€" tary, and Bill, a friend.

We‘ll give her two or three weeks and she‘ll be about washed up ‘by that time. A shame, too, when she‘s had enough publicity to keep herâ€"a drawing carg for months. + "A fat break you‘ve given the kid," Doug returned. "She‘d: die of loneliness before you‘d so much as say hello to her; What‘s the mater with you, Don Juan?" The next day was a busy one. There was morning rehearsal in costume, not that the costume was much different than the clothes she wore all the time, put there was makeup:; There was a makeup man who showed her how to do her face, but it was Douglas who convinced her that it was necessary to smear herself un with all® of> that "stuff." The rechearsal went off without a hitch. But not yet had the girl danced half as well as she had that day beside the train. Stewart shook his head after watchâ€" ing one of the rehearsals. "Evening . dress, darling, evening dress." Doug was immersed in thought. He jumped to his feet. "Baby, thero‘s another surprise for you after your opening night. Well, what say we work it double and surprise them?" He was pacing up and down thinking fast. "Yes sir, baby, we‘ll pull a coup on them!" Consuz:lo didn‘t understand the slang phrases, but she knew she‘d get her ‘"You are my darling one now for a certain. Toâ€"morrow we will go to th: stores, th? It is the night after next that I dance before New York. Will you let me buy a dressâ€"a night dress â€"to wear after the show?" "When you look like that no man could resist you." He kissed her cheek playfully. "Well, kitten, I‘ll see what can be don=." magic is this, dear lady, that turns you from a gypsy into a New Yorker with llure in your eyes?" "Oh, Dougalas, do you really think I look nice?" She was like an eager child. She curled up in the chair beâ€" side him. ‘Douglas, my precious darling one," her voice was wheedling, "I am tired of just my things. Please will you take me and let me buy some pretty clothes like the New York gorgios wear?. Then perhaps my white friend wu‘ come and see me and not leave me She paraded up and down the room and her walk on the high hsels was "Falling in love with her?" "You bet I am!‘ "Hot mama!"

Whaet ; "This is the bright general picture of business conditions in Canada which "Other encouraging trends in the business picture are an increased rate in the turnover of bank deposits, which shows that consumers are spending money more freely; a continued upâ€" turn in industrial production; a slowly moving recovery in revenue carloadâ€" ings; and perhaps most important of all a narrowing of the spread between the prices of manufacturing goods and the prices of farm products combined with favourable prospects for goed creops. This development means the farmer will be able to buy more gooeds with the dollars received for hls proâ€" duct. Economists have pointed out that durable goods industries, generally, show the first sign of permanent reâ€" covery and this is usually followed by recovery in consumer goods industries. It is, therefore, gratifying to note that the value of building construction durâ€" in fiflrst six months of 1935 is 24 \ t greater than the value of dustties are also showing a recovery. Boots and shoes, silks and other manuâ€" facturers in the consumers goods class have already felt the return of better business. "A careful study of business statisâ€" tics reveals a bright picture for Canaâ€" dian business during the coming months. Imports for the first six months of 1935 amounted to $280,373,â€" 000. This represents an increase of 5.2 per cent. ocer the 1934 figure for the same period of $247,389,000. Exports for the first half of this year were $305,â€" 084,000 while during the first six months of 1934 they were $293,080,000. This represents an increase of 4.1 per cent. The above figures also show that exports still exceed imports by a conâ€" siderable amount. This is particularly important as it shows that Canada, which is primarily a producer of: raw materials, is continuing to find wide markets for its products throughout the world. "Automobile manufacturers are conâ€" stantly watching the important develâ€" opments that are taking place in. pracâ€" tically all Canadian industries in their recovery movement. The many favourâ€" able factors that appear have led us to plan for a large increase in production of Chrysler Motors motor cars," stated Mr. Mansfield:; Manufacturers of automobiles have enjoyed a 35 per cent. increase in busiâ€" ness to date this year and with the introduction of new cars this fall comâ€" bined with the general recovery moveâ€" ment throughout Canadas they expect to have approximately a 200 per cent. increase in production and sales during the last three months of this year over the similar periog for 1934, according to Mr. Jno.

An apparently better system would have been to leave the same restrictions as to pupils attending the first and second forms, with no restricâ€" tions whatever throughout Northern Ontario at any rate on the middle and. upper school work, when the academy would have been filled to its utmost. Now, like a~bolt from the blue, the Deâ€" partment of Education has closed the school within a couple of weeks of the regular opening. The Ontario Governâ€" ment also owned and. operated a farm in connection with the school, which was a great advantage in the boardâ€" ing of pupils. This also has been closed, ang the employees are under notice of dismissal;, As we understand, this has been done as an economy measure. Where does economy, come in on this at all?
