One of the most fascinating and entertaining stories which we have | ever seen is "The Song of Love," | starring the magnetic Norma Tal- | madge, and it would be difficult to visualize a rote more fitting for the star. It is one of the finest and met | artistic performances to her credit. In this First National picture, | which was produced by Joseph M | Schenck, Mies Talmadge plays the part of an Arabian dancing girl who becomes the centre of devious intri- | @ues and conspiracies. She is the | main attraction in the tavern of her | uncle, and news of her charm of face | and figure and her pulse-quickening dancing drew many from far and | near.

Each morning at ten o'clock, when the weather is fine, there Is an outing in which a walk is taken around the avenues of the grounds. While pass- ing the Front Road during this walk, one patient broke away and dashed madly down through the village. At- tendants started in pursuit and when the pursued man saw them drawing near he jumped into the water of Hatteras Bay at the breakwater, Ef- forts to coax him out were fruitless and he must have been swimming around in the cold bay for twenty minutes. Finally a skiff put out and he was lassoed and brought to shore. A Rockwood hospital car returned him to the institution. Passersby were amazed at his resistance to the cold water.

W. M. Trivett of China. An excellent presentation of the cause of foreign missions was made by Rev. W. M. Trivett, missionary on furlough from Honan, China, in giv- ing the address at the synod mission ary service in St. James' Hall Wed- nesday night. People in Canada had told him, said the speaker, that they did not believe 4n foreign missions, because the Chinese had their "beauntiful" primitive religions. Yes, he went on, they 'had the beautiful religion that let the blind beggar die in their {Streets and threw the dead y over {the walls to be eaten by dogs. Fit- jteen hundred years mgo the British race were like the Chinese, held in | bondage by superstitions and evil {spirits. Missionaries with the Gos pel of Christ set them free. The Chinese had the same right to that story of God's love. The speaker gave an interesting description of the Chinese attitude of mind, how he admired wisdom and how he believed he would be {greater than the western wheh he had imbibed the latter's educatton.' But, said the speaker, a training of 'the soul must go along with thie. The one bright spot in China's politi. cal chaos was the Christian Gen. Fung with .9,000 Christians among his 5,000 troops He described the good york being done by the Christian schools "where We can teach Christianity which you can't do in Canada," a statement which drew applause, as did" many other of his remarks. Every Chris- tian in China helps to preach and | propagate the gospel. If only that could be sald of the church in Can- ada. A very hearty vote of thanks was jmoved by Dean Starr and Canon Ffrench. Bishop Bidwell presided. Thanks were extended to the choir for their assistance, x --------r---- Death of Ten-Year-Old Child.
