Ca But in case Peter wants too much speed there is an extra control on the car, this is a long cable with a switch to the accelerator the end of which is held' hy his nurse. When the speed becomes too high the nurse can ewitch the engine oft. Peter's father is a keen motorist and owns a, car capable of 85 m.p.h. Peter wanted one, of course, so the miniature came along. He soon learn. ed how to steer and drive. It is a real motor car in miniature, with reverse and forward gears, elec- tric headlamps, tra c indicators and brakes. The car is driven by an elec- tric motor. Its highest speed is eight miles an hour. He owns a car and drives it round the grounds ot his tather's house. LONDON. - Eighteen-month-old Pe- ter Aldridge, ot Offchurch, Learning- ton, Warwickshire, is the youngest motorist in Britain. Probably the olive lives to as good, or green, an old age as any European tree, and the gargoyles ot the trunks often grin "like an antie," mocking at time. They may sex a thousand years out; but - should doubt whether any single tree in Britain is known to be a thousand years old. suppose the palm would go to the oaks - the oaks, say, of Aldermaston in Berkshire, of Hatfield in Herts, of Whiligh on the Surrey-Sussex border. Sir George Courthope, whose "amlly records in Surrey predate most tcees, might have some material help tor the tree bio- grapher. 18 Monthtr-uyrivets C The question is suggested, how old can a. tree be? Elwes, who was a great authority, gave 2,000 years to this famous Whiligh Oak, but I should doubt whether any authority of to-day would accept his record, would even grant him halt his estimate. Trees of a thousand years old are pointed out to one in many parts of the world: certain olives for examples in Majorca and the "dragon tree" in the garden of Government House in Gibralter. The round number comes sweetly to the lips. -Some years ago I called attention to a charming instance of continuity and tradition in English county an- nals: Sir George Courthope was re pairing Westminster Hall with oak from the same wood that had sup- plied the original timber 600 years earlier. . . . .

It's not right to teach young people to be vengeful, intolerant, and militerist. The young should be taught to be tolerant - to understand the point of view of others. Norma Talmadge is thirty-seven. She looks twenty-seven. These film stars who lose all their money in the market and then go at round whiting about 't make me tired. If you’ve tit the brains and the ability to make money you should be able tc keep It. I think movie actresses who make fortunes (and they earn them) should be compelled by law to put them into trust funds, and stop making public nuisances of themselves. I talked to her tor an hour and came away with these comments. It is high time we put love in its proper place. It isn't all that import. ant. Nowadays .9 are beginning to treat the thing sanely. A girl Is no longer ruined for life because she has an unfortun- ate love affair, or because her marriage doesn’t work out right. She as other things to thin' about.

Toronto.--" remarkable tribute was recently paid to the Hon. Charles Me- Crea at the King Edward Hotel by the leaders of Ontario’s mining Industry. No man has contributed more to the opening up and upbullding ot the north country than the Minister ot Mines, who hails from the Sudbury nickel belt, and who for ten years has been the alert and forceful backer ot the mineral industry, an inspiration to engineers and prospectors engaged in the development of the north, and thus a benefactor ot the whole province and of the entire Dominion. But tor the sympathetic leadership given by Mr. McCrea, the Ontario gold min. ing industry, could scarcely have reached its present proportions. Nor could the base metal industry have grown as it has. Too Much "Party" Last Night Hon.

It was bad wheiher husband threw lighted cigarettes in her face and took other women home trom parties, she said. It was worse when he went upstairs and fired a revolver through the floor in the general direction of the bridge table.

Another, reduction has resulted trom the fact that 46,500 "war babies” reached the age of sixteen daring the year. Their, allowances automatically ceased.

LONDoN.--BecauBe a thousand war widows married again last year Ne. ville Chamberlain, Chancellor ot the Exchequer, will save more than $250,- 000 in his coming budget.

But tor this country's greatly ex- panded gold production the Canadian Treasury might not havepeen ablerto maintain the national credit or to meet its obligations abroad during the depression. Nor should it be forgot- ten that those engaged in the mining industry are by no means the only section of the community to benefit from this industry. The mines ot New Ontario utilize a tremendous amount ot food, clothing, boots and shoes and other products of ontario factories. The mines thus give employment, di.. rectly and indirectly, to large num- bers of our people. As the protector ot the mining industry, Mr. McCrea has proved an invaluable friend not only to Canadian mining men, but to the country as a whole. In the distribution ot surplus tarm products 120 one-pound prints were apportioned to Perry Township, Mr. Raymond N. Carmichael, township trustee, looked at the 120 prints, then at his relief list, and then scratched his head thoughtfully. He finally decided to store the butter in a pack- ing house in a near-by city until he should have opportunity to confer with relief agencies of the city re- garding disposal ot his surplus. The total relief bill for Perry Township during the month of January was $6.75 which was paid for one ton of coal. . ..
