These excerpts are from the "Man- Tote at Sood Mummers published in -- quoted by Arthur Train (th 'Puritan's Progress"): t "Never be squinting and scowling end examining the victuals, to see if you can discover a coal or a speck or a hair; if you And one, take it out decently, and not make a great ado about it, : "Bat what you need before you rise from the table; and not be picking victuals at the table, it denotes a fevish disposition, . . i - Some more: "When you have done eating, clean your plate, knife and fork, lay the bones you have picked in a snug heap by the side of your plate, scrape pp your crumbs, and cross your knife and fork on your plate. "Speak not at table. Laugh not at table; it shows unthankfulness. "The mouth and teeth should be scoured out once each day with coal dust, which is not only good to cleanse the teeth, but is also an excellent preservative to them." . . * The rule against pocketing victuals at table recalls a story told by Melba (in "Melodies and Memories") about "the great tenor Tamagno. (They used to say that his voice was so power- ful that his top C's caused the chan- deliers at Covent GGarden actually to rattle) Tamagno was guest at a formal dinner given to Metropolitan Opera singers aot which Melba, Jean de Reske and others including the Italian Ambassador and his wife, were present. - * * When the time arrived for the wo- men to leave the table, relates Mel- ba, "my eyes were so glued to Tam- agno that I hardly realized where I was." (She had previously watch- ed him pop crystallized fruits, al- monds, chocolates, etc. into his nap- kin.) "But in a sort of dream I saw him rise to his feet, take up one of the beautiful bunches of orchids with which the ladles had all been presented, bow gracefully and say to the Ambassadress seated next to him: " 'Will you allow me, signora? It is for my daughter who is ill at the hotel.' "The poor woman was so astonish- ed," says Melba, "that she could only emile artificially and murmur that of course it was permitted to take them." . » . Another time Jelba and Tamagno were luncheon guests of the noted conductor Mancinelli, at an Italian restaurant in New York, Among the dishes served were veal cutlets 'a la Milanaise' At the end of the course several cutlets were left over. "This was too much for Tamagno." chuckles Melba. "Leaning over the table, he said to Mancinelli: 'What are you going to do with those? "'Do with them? replied the be- wildered Mancinelll, 'Nothing.' "'Ah, Tamagno siged with" satis. faction, In his resonant tones he summoned a waiter. 'Give me a newspaper,' he cried. : "The newspaper was brought, and then, with the utmost deliberation, Tamagno proceeded to wrap the cut- lets up, one by one in the newspaper. Suddenly pausing, and sensing that an explanation was required, he said: 'You see, my little dog--he loves veal cutlets." - *. * The sequel to this story is worthy of note, adds Melba. On the next day Mancinelli called at Tamagno's private suite at about twelve o'clock. He and his daughter were just sit- ting down to lunch, "Need I tell you what was the dish in the centre of the table?" asks Melba, mischievously. eee fem London's Vast Docks London docks, scattered from the city down thirty miles of the Thames River as far as the Tilbury Docks, the nearest port to the sea, include many famous and important struc- tures. Passing through Tower Bridge at London, on the Thames, one ap proaches first the entrance to the Lon- don and St. Katherine Docks with their lofty warehouses. Large quantities of many-~ of the most valuable commodities from all parts of the world are stored here. More than 60,000,000 fleeces of wool pass through these docks every year. The Port of London Authority keeps a staff of experts to perform such necessary operations as weighing and sampling. Other goods stored on the docks include skins, wines, spices, sugar, rubber, ivory, drugs, coffee, cocoa, iodine, quicksilver esgential ~ oils canned fruits, fish and cocoanut. The Royal Victoria' and Albert and King George V Docks stretch for three miles along the riverside between Blackwall and Gallions Reaches of the Riv,r Thames.

So protested Sir Richard Paget, life- long British student of the nature and sounds of speech, in a recent ad- dress in London. It is generally ad- mitted, Sir Richard recalled, that a large part of the human antagonisms which lead to wars and similar diffi- culties are due to differences of language, so that separate groups of people do not fully understand &ach other. A similar condition exists, the lecturer suggested, even among people who speak the same language. Words are complicated mouth, tongue and throat gestures most of which were chosen by our savage ancestors thou- sands of years ago. These savages had but few ideas and simple ones. Languages, while probably good enough for their cavemen inventors, have been outgrown by civilization. A single word may stand for balf a dozen separate ideas, even in a single language." Mankind has perfected the art of mathematics and dozens of other arts which assist the progress o* science or the egact formulation of ideas in special fields like science and engineering. No similar effort has been spent on speech. Instead men have been content to get along with the "words and speech forms of savages. Future progress of civiliza- tion will be delayed or perhaps pre- vented, Sir Richard believes, unless the problem of communicating ideas by language is studied scientifically and systematically, to find out exactly how thoughts may be expressed most clearly. entree eee The Foggiest Spot Moose Peak, Maine, enjoys the dis- tinction, says Popular Mechanics Mag- azine, of being the foggiest spot in the United States, although it brightened up a little in 1930 and had only 1,662 hours, or a little more than sixty-five days and nights, of fog. Its yearly fog average over sixteen years has been 1,607 hours. Runners-up on Moose Peak's record are Libbey Island and Pefit Mana, also on the Maine coast. On the Pacific coast, Point Reyes light station holds the record, with an average of 1,398 hours per year for forty-five years, new cans and some new ideas. 52 JARVIS STREET WANTED -- The marketing of cream has been my life study.

Until' a few decades ago Canada was care- less of her timber wealth; there seemed so much of it*th# exhaus- tion was a remote prosfect. But prodigality always brings its own punishment; now it is realized that the wooded areas must be cared for, and reforestation has become an es- tablished undertaking, In view of this situation, preven- tion of forest fires is a subject of prime importance. During 1929, 6, 000,000 acres of timbered land in the Dominion was burned over, with a total loss of $6,200,000; and this de- spit an elaborate and efficient pre- ventive organization. Each of the Provincial Governments administer- ing its own forests maintains a fire protection body which co-operates with owners and lessees for the pro- tection of timbered areas, the cost being distributed . or covered by special taxes on such lands. The aeroplane is established as an important factor in the detection of forest fires, and in this respect On- tario is particularly well equipped. While aircraft have to a large extent supplanted the old o.noe, horseback and foot patrol for detection of fires, a large ground staff, with equipment stored at strategic points, always will 'be necessary for'the fighting of larger fires and maintenance of sys- tems of communication. With the disappearance of winter conditions these flying firemen may he found all over the forests of Northern Ontario. This is a well trained and disciplined force, direct- ed by skilled aviators, and plays a tremendously important part in the protection of the Province's timber wealth, ,There is something picturesque and much that is of a hazardous nature about the work of these men who spend the summer in the clouds above the vast forest domain of this Pro- vince, watching eagle-eyed for tLe incipient fire that may mean dis- astrous material loss and perhaps deatn in its most terrible form, Their presence in these danger zones, and the conviction that they are animat- ed by a keen sense of duty, justify public confidence that everything possible will be done to prevent the terrible forest conflagrations of former years.--The Mail and Em- pire (Toronto). seinem ot Poles of U.S. Are Determined The two points farthest apart in the United States proper, according to the Geological Survey, are Cape Flattery, Wash,, and a poigt on the Florida coast, south of Miami.
