Campbell Chay In the late Stone Age, men made | much better boats than we have des cribed before. They now had hatch- |ets and axes with handles, and they {cut away much of each log, making it {flat and board-like. The boards were | fastened together, There were no nails {in those days, but rope had been in- {vented. Rope was used to hold the | boards or planks in place. : Even if such planks were fitted to- gether in a very careful manner, the boat would leak, To guard against this, the gummy sap of pine trees is believed to have been placed in cracks. PROBS: --Fine and a little warmer Thursday. er stuck up over either side. The man rested his paddle against the end of one of the sticks. He hap- pened to pull the paddle back, and no- ticed it made the boat move. The move ment was sidewise, it is true, but the! idea of moving a boat in such a man- | ner was there. | By and by, men learned to pull pad-| dles (or oars) against: the ends of | sticks on both sides of a boat. They] now built their boats much larger than| in former times, and rowed them hun- | dreds of miles, often over stormy seas. | This made the boats water-tight. The vessels were so good, in fact, that men used them to travel hun-| dreds of miles over the North Sea and the Mediterranean Sea. One proof of | stone tombs) on islands of those seas, All dolmens, it seems, were built by! the same race, who spread over Eur-| ope, Asia, and northern Africa. The| only way these people could have got| to the island was by using boats. Another thing that seems very likely | jis that oars were in use in the time of | | which we speak. These made men able to move their boats better than. they could with pushing-sticks or paddles | The first trial of the oar may have { come when a certain man became tired | of paddling. Let us suppose -that his | boat had been built in a rough man- ner and that some of the stout sticks] which helped keep the planks togeth- this is the presence of dolmens (huge !

MacBeth, D.D., Vancouver, one of the most eminent leaders of the non-unionists, and president of the Presbyterian Church Association of British Columbia, has issued the following statement of the situation in view of the recent vote in the as- sembly: | "The vote of the assembly was not unexpected for various reasons; {therefore it will make no difference jin the attitude of British Columbia | Presbyterians who intend remaining in the Presbyterian church which will continue work in Canada and abroad even though some may leave ¥ REFRIGERATORS fl it to enter the new organisation if such new organization ever comes into existence.

It was singular- | ly fontunate that the first voice from | the new bride of the Presbyterian churches was the cultured and com-. manding voice of Dr. Endicott.
