Fringing Rock n Fire Into Contin of Africai 14 Miles Away Population Now 25,000 Promontory Off Spain Pop- ular as Health Resort Gibraltar.--While statesmen and reformers have been discussing world disarmament, Great Britain has made this rocky promontory at the souther- ly extremity of Spain one of the most . powerful fortresses in the world. Gigantic guns of the latest and most deadly pattern have been placed along the ridge ofy'® py replacing those df ob od that used\to level of thes ov strg Ton the Bri an 6 have found concrete expression at itar in the construction of the most formidable sea fortress ever known. Sweeps the Mediterranean G Sweeping the Mediterranean for distanee of thirty miles and operating at a height of more than 1,000 feet, these tremendous cannon have enor- mously increased the range, fire and ral efficiency of Gibraltar as Eng- 's guardian and gateway to the ven Seas. In addition to. this, a series of great subterranean els, moles, embattled walls, emplace! fortifications and secret armo chambers have been built. Miles of space have been reclaim from the sea for the accommodatio of huge new docks, shipways, wharves an jetties. There is an enclosed har- bor of 440 acres where an entire fleet may anchor, safe from torpedo or sub- marine attack, This harbor can take care of the repairing, refitting and coaling of a large fleet of battleships. The British authorities have also built a number of fine, modern roads, one of the largest running to the north front from the line wall, and another -at the back of Catalan Bay, running to the mouth of the tunnel. A third road and tunnel will be bored on the south side, encircling the Rock. 25,000 Live on Rock Although Gibraltar is less than two miles in area, it is the most densely populated spot in the world. It has 10,000 people to the square mile. In some places this, the greatest of the world's armeq citadels, is only one- quarter of a mile wide. The residen- tial part of Gibraltar occupies only about ora-tenth of the total area of the Rock. Only a small part of the town 18 on level ground. Yet Gibral- tar boasts nearly 25,000 population, ' | Of this number 20,000 are civilians. The rest are naval and military forces. The langauge of the people is a cor- rupt Spanish. Because of the ever-présent contin. gency of war and the necessity of guarding intact all the secrets of the | fortress, the British authorities are obliged to keep a sharp check on any increase in the present population. Whenever ible, the poorer cl are shifted from Gibraltar across the ' frontier into the neighboring Spanish town of La Linea de la Concepcion, jas a population of 63,000. other visitors are allowed {sland from the mainland ts between 5 a.m. and 10 Gibraltar in recent years something of a health re- a favorite stopping place In tourist ships on Mediter- % is weltering in a ality," to judge from the state- nt of Dr. Hensley Henson, Bishop Durham, before the Church Con- j8- here. asked) "for feeling confident that the Christianity 'of England in 1928 is more firmly fixed in the national ac- ceptance than that of France and Russia on the eve of their revolu- tions?" However, the existing situation may be viewed, Dr. Henson continued, "one feature is equally incontestable dnd disquieting--the general and increas- ing ignorance of the Christian faith land morals which mark our popula- tion. "The record of revolution suggests that the two points on which the at- tack on Christianity is soonest made are sex morality and educationa. The two pillars on which sex morality in Christiandom has hitherto rested have been the conception of the marriage union as permanent, by divine law, and the claim of children as the nor- mal product of the marriage union. "Both of these have been removed by the licentious theories now largely accepted in Europe. Hence the chaos into which sexual morality has fallen throughout Western civilization." rp Example is the school of mankind, and they will learn at no other.-- Burke, EE Alma and Lizzy Take Trip ment should be the right side in the new, and the pressing done according- ly. If this necessitates the removal of tailored pockets, after pressing care- full; mend the slits with a backing of the goods, and later conceal the place by a patch pocket. This necessity must be kept in mind when adjusting the new pattern to the materiai. The pattern used in recruiting an old garment should be as simple as possible. The note of variety in clothes for children and young girls, especial- ly, lies chiefly in clever trimming ar- rangements and the addition of smart dainty accessories. The dresses them- selves are on the simplest lines, for however fahion may demand the orna- mental for adults, childhood and youth are beautiful in themselves and sim- plicity will always remain the correct thing, and the smartest, for children up to at least 17. % An expert advises that in remodel- Ing clothes for children the surplus edge on the printed pattkrn be re- moved, regardless of the manufactur- ers directions. "This saves confusion in cutting and enables one to exactly gauge her limited material. "Pin the front and back sections of the pattern together at the shoulder seams, adjust to the figure and pin along the under arm seam to deter- mine whether or not any alterations should"he made in the pattern before # is la'? on the goods. Alterations in| length <hould be made three inches | above the waist and four inches below the waist. Alterations as to width are made on a line parallel to the centre front and four inches away from it. Sleeves are lengthened both above and below the elbow. "Sizes over 40 should have a dart from the shoulders or from the under- arm to give sufficient fullness at the bust, A three-quarter inch allowance on the shoulder seam of the back por- tion of the pattern should be made for people inclined to be round-shouldered as that gives additional width at the back. If many alterations are neces- sary, choose a plain pattern and make them, then company the other pattern with this. By following these sugges- tions instead of the incorrect methods followed by most amateurs for seam _| alterations, the garment will fit pro- perly because the correct proportions have been maintained. "There are a few inexorable rules to follow in regard to making over garments. One is: never undertake to make over materials that, after a thor- ough cleaning and pressing, do not look like mew. A successful 'made over' never looks like a made-over. On the other hand, it is amazing what can be done sometimes by a clever woman with seemingly impossible materials. "Always determine upon a model that requires as little extra expense as possible, It rarely pays to buy much that is new to go with old ma- terial, although there are exceptions to this rule, of course. Also, choose a model for reproduction that involves as little cutting up of the original gar- ment as possible. Yet keep in mind that you dare to be original with used material when with new you would occasionally hesitate to experiment."-- Christian Science Monitor. Alfonso Displays - Interest in Bees Spanish Monarch, Owner of 1000 Hives, Made Head of Agriculturists Madrid --The acceptance by King Alfonso of the honorary presidency of the Society of Agriculture should late the introduction of more modern methods, since the King him- self takes a keen interest in bee-keep- ing and owns over 1,000 hives. Spain, a land of sunshine and flow- ers, is almost unrivalled as a bee- keeping country, yet the primitive conditions under which bees were un- til quite recently kept, and still are to a large extent, have deprived the people of what may now promise to become a source of considerable in- come. Old tree trunks, roughly hol lowed out and rough clay receptacles are still used throughout _Spafn, 'reminiscent of the prehistoric methods, such as can be seen pictured on the walls of the La Arana caves near Va- lencla in the rough carvings of the! primitive hunter of bees and their hives. : i There now exists in Madrid a State School of Agriculture. demonstrations NEW NECKLINE, Smart women are choosing the black crepe satin frock, because it adapts itself so perfectly for everyday occa- sions, particularly in semi-sports styl- ing, as seen in Design No. 284. The deep French V rolled in revers, notch- ed collar, and diagonal closing vestee, do much toward attaining slender sil- houette. The kilted effect of skirt is votthful fashion to provide fulness without interfering with its slender line. Long tight sleeves have turn- back fitted cuffs. The vestee, rever facing, cuffs and collar are chic made of the dull surface of crepe. Printed sheer tweed with canton-crepe vestee, autumn-leaf brown flat silk crepe with beige, printed s:eer velvet with faille crepe, black rayon velvet with beige canton-faille crepe, and printed wool jersey with plain jersey are pepualar combinations.

AREAS, , CHANCE At a certain hotel a card-sharper made the acquaintance of a fairly in- nocent-looking old man, and after a polite chat suggested a game of cards. His new-found friend agreed, and they started to play without more ado. Unfortunately, the manager of the hotel did not allow this sort of thing and shortly afterwards. he appeared on the scene and interrupted them. "You can't play games of chance here, I am afraid, gentlemen," he said courteously. "It isn't a game of chance," snap- ped the sharper angrily. "My friend here has no chance cat all" ------tem-- A vice-presidential candidate does well to present himself as prominently as possible. Whether his ticket suc- ceeds or not, he is rehearsing for a long silence. --Washington Star. ; a EN "My dear, called a wite to her hus- band in the next room, "what are you said, "with- a can-opener. On Thursday morning things: beg to happen. First we find gy hosts law's ad, never arrived until late Wednesday night or T y morn. ing, and that at least three other ads are not even in the office. We begin: to rush . The post offifiice, we know, closes promptly at 7 p.m. and we have 4,000 runs of the paper to get - out to-day, and it is even now Ii o'clock, and not a wheel turning. Wa begin to wonder why in people can't be on time with their copy--we suddenly hear the phone ring, We compose ourselves and listen to & long-winded tale about an editorial that ought to be written this week bawling somebody out properly but which I forgot to mentiee «ntil now-- Thursday noon it is, and not a wheel turned yet--no dinner to-day. ; Well, by one o'clock the big ad is set up and the others are in, and we have the first forms ready for the press. Then when the forms are put to bed, and a proof is taken, we dis- cover that the theatre cut was cu crooked--won't print up, that a rul is high and cuts the paper, or that some other detail has gone wrong, all of which requires from one-half to one and a half hours to remedy. At least we're off and--the press breaks. It is more than nerves can stand-- the whole force gets fired (but we hire them again immediately when we rea- lize our dilemma) and so the jinx has its fun.) Having had such fun, the miracle happens. The machinery moves and all is well. The News of the week comes off the" press--black on white-- local news, intimate, personal, almost part of us. See haw caressingly Fred passes his fingers over it. See how we all glance kindly at the printed pages coming off the whirling cylin- ders. How musical to our ears are the resounding swishes and clang of the press as it trundles backards and forwards each time delivering a neat- ly printed sheet. No wonder that when the day is done, we reverently place one copy in the News archives, dedicate another Thursday to Clio, the Muse of History, and, sticking an extra copy in our hip pockets, we wend our divers ways home where each in his own way hunts through the paper for other evidence of the work of the jinx on that hectic day we call Thursday down at the News office, and we find in the Jones' obitu- ary notice that we set a '"v" for an "n"" and that the Jones family say they are having a "lovely time" instead of a "lonely time," and the knowing jinx laughs. Canada to Aid Amateur Radio Operators Restrictions of Convention to Be Eased by Efforts at Co-operation Canada in its endeavor to give the amateur transmitting radio man all the opportunities to experiment, has already done extensive work to en- able him to carry on uninterrupted when the new radio convention goes into force on January 1. According to this convention, made last year at Washington, it is necessary to have the consent of other countries before any Canadian amateurs can operate with as much freedom as in the past with these foreign lands. The first step, taken early in Aug. use, wis fo write to the two telegraph companies in the Dominion, the Cana- dian National Telegraph and the Ca- nadian Pacific Railway's Telegraphs, and get their consent to allow ama teurs the freedom of sending such experi tal and p 1 as would other wise not find thelr way over telegraph wires. Both concerns wrote to Commander O. P. Edwards assuring him of their co-operation to help the amateur in this way. Commander Edwards then had let- ters sent to all British dominions, the States, United Kingdom, the United Portugal, Philippines and a number of other South American and European countries through the Department of State at Ottawa. "We are the first country to have done this the amateur," the Commander in {opening that can with?" "Why," he
