It is less generally known that there are data that point to peoples having jorneyed, many centuries before Columbus‘ time, from the American continent to Europe. The direction of ocean currents facilitates such a journey. Floating wreckage is occaâ€" sionally washed up on the west coast of Europe with marks of identificaâ€" tion ~that show it has come from America. P + Did Primitive Canadians *‘Discover‘" the Old World? In a recent issue of Nordisk Tidâ€" skrift (Stockholm) Prof. Oscar Monâ€" telius had an article in which data concerning communication between America and other parts of the world before the time of Columbus were collated and discussed. On the basis of these facts the professor raises the question of the early cultural links between various parts of the world and whether these threads of communication could have had any demonstrable influence on cultural development. A couple of mediaeval authors tell of "Indians‘‘ who came to the Gerâ€" man coast. A few decades after the birth of Christ Pomponius Mela tells how the proâ€"consul in Cisalpine Gaul received from a German king as a gift some "Indians‘"‘ who had come to Germany‘s coast, secudding in their vessels © before a â€" westerly~ wind. Pliny. too, refers to the event. That these strangers who could not themâ€" selves explain whence they came should have beenâ€" supposed to be ‘"Indians‘"‘ is, in view of the period‘s geographical knowledge, very natâ€" ural. The supposition that these "Inâ€" dians‘‘ were, in reality, American Inâ€" dians was confirmed in a notable way by an archaeological find of about a century ago. In the Louvre is a Roman bronze head, cast about the time of the birth of ‘Christ, that plainly represents an American Indian. It is hollow and has apparently been used. to hold ointment. At the back of the head is seen the beginning of the tuft of hair which the Indians to this day have worn there. This bronze head is distinguishable from all that ons is accustomed to see of Roman art, but it offers all the characteristic feaâ€" tures of an Indian head. An overseas padre speaking on beoks for soldiers, says: ‘"Men are now reading who never read before in their lives." ‘That is quite true. Others are reading books they never considered before and may never con; sider again. The supply of titles in the C. E. F. libraries has doubtless grown in the last two years, but in the early months of their organizaâ€"~ tion the selection was not large. Another writer says: "I remember finding in one company library in t!la little town of Ablainville: ‘The Fam ily Life of Heinrich Heine,‘ ‘Fou Another writer says: "I remember finding in one company library in the little town of Ablainville: ‘The Fam:â€" ily Life of Heinrich Heine,‘ ‘Fou teen Weeks In Astronomy,‘ ‘Raoba lections and ~Letters of Rena‘B ‘Education and the Higher Lifé,‘ ‘Bible Stories for the Young,‘ and ‘Henry the Eighth and His Six Wives" The last was easily the most popular book in the collection, but the soldiers complained pretty genâ€" erally that it did not come up to expectations. ‘"While I was looking over the shelf the champion heavyweight boxâ€" er in H Company came in to return a small red volume. He had rather a selfâ€"conscious air and I asked him whether he liked the book. *"* ‘Well, yes and no,‘ he said, judiâ€" cially. * ‘What is it?‘ Iâ€"persisted, as he continued to keep the book tightly locked under one arm. " ‘It‘s called ‘"‘"When Patty Went to College,"‘ he answered defiantly." The waters in which the sockeye salmon are taken includes the Fraser river and Fuget Sound. in both Canada and the United States. In 1917 the pack amounted to 148,â€" 164 cases in Canada and 411,122.in the United States. There were at one time forty canuneries on the Fraser river and Puget Sound. The shortage is attributed to the buildâ€" ing of a dam on Quesnel lake in 1902 without provision for salmon tco ascend the river; the rock slide on Fraser river in 1§13 which preâ€" vented the salmon from reaching their spawning giounds, and the failure of Washington and British Columbia to adopt prctective laws. There are now prospects at last for the preservation of the sockeye salmon of Fraser river and Puget Sound. A treaty for the protection of the salmon will be ratified if reguâ€" lations suggested by the United States â€" Bureau of Fisheries are adopted by the authorities of British Columbia and the State of Washâ€" ington. The regulations were drawn up by the Americanâ€"Canadian Fishâ€" eries conference in Seattle in April. What publicly cwned and operated Hydroâ€"electric power is doing for the homes of Ontario was dramatically illustrated at a recent meeting of the Light and Heat Commissioners in Guelph. The monthly report presentâ€" ed explained that the peak load for June, occurring on the morning of Tuesday, the; 10th, when 2,788 horsepower was recorded, was due to the fact that it was ‘"ironing day," and the busy women had drawn heavily on the electrical energy. The exceptional calls for power had come hours. Be keeping them in a pen Guelph‘s citizens. Football is a favored sport of Esquiriaux and Indians â€" not the football of Canada, however. In the Alaskan game there are neither goal ror scores, and contestants soméâ€" times include several hundred men, women, and childrenâ€"one whole vilâ€" lage, perhaps, pitted aghinst another. One side carries the football as far as possible, and the game lasts until one side gets tired and quits. FROM AMERICA TO EUROPE. War Made Men Read.

Carâ€" penter, â€" Lakeview, Fruitlang, when her daughter, Agnes Macdonald, was united in marriage to Dr. William I. Stevenson, of Hamilton. â€" Rev. A. C. Eddy of Winona officiated. Folâ€" lowing the ceremony, a dainty lunchâ€" eon was served, after which Dr. and Mrs. Stevenson left to spend a week in Algonquin Park. On October 14 they will leave for London, England, where they will remain for two years and upon their return they will reâ€" side in Hamilton.
