When Lady Layard, for ex- 'ample, died in 1912, she bequeath- 6d the whole of the papers of her husband, Sir Austen Hemry Lay- ard, the diplomatist and archaeo- logist to the museum, As Sir | Henry was Parliamentary Under- for Foreign Agalrs from 1861-1866, one can get an iden of the importance of his MSS, In the Layard MSS, there are many 'confidential prints," as they ave called, and the whole of the papers comprises 284 volumes. Many of these papers have now been released for research work by the Foreign Office, but there are still a number quite inacces- sible to the research worker, Another important volume of secrets concerning personalities in the last century and matters of State which cannot at present be Aivulged is the work of Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, All the papers of this distin. gulshed statesman are in the cus- tody of the keeper, and they will not be published for some time, Then there are the Leland papers--the correspondence of C. G, Leland, the great authority on gypsies, For reasons which can- not be disclosed they are still in- accessible to the publisher, An official at the department said that there was a considerable Hist of persons distinguished in many walks of life whose papers are kept under lock and key and will mot be published for 20 to 60 years, They were unable, how- ever, to give even the names, 32 YEARS SPENT IN HEART OF AFRICA Young Aberdonian Mission- ary Who Filled Living. stone's Place There stepped off the boat train at Waterloo recently an old man whose deeply-tanned complexion well set up figure and radiant smile as he greeted his friends a' the station, set many wondenug, He wes Dr. Robert Laws, the Yoremost living missionary, Liy- ingstone"s suecessor in the Afri- can mission field, back home after 62 years of unbroken service in the heart of Central Africa.

C. W. DeMille In an interesting address, He tended to show that information which the child picks up might be carried to the outside world and would prove detrimental to the parent and oft- entimes the child, The speaker il- lustrated this by mentioning in- stances that have come to his at- tention, Rev, DeMille in reterring to the school side of the home paid high tribute to female teachers, especial: ly those who are teaching in South- Western Saskatchewan, He claim- ed they ave not working for the salary they are recelving but are teaching to educate the children, Rev. Mr, DeMille inferred that many male followers of the teach: ing profession are working for the money théy are paid and nog for the love of the task, Leading up to the fact that On- tario"s most valuable asset Is ite children and not its resources, Rey. Mr. DeMille gave an interesting re- view of his trip through the mari. time provinces during the past Summer. The speaker claimed the citizens of this province are not hospitable in the same manner in which the people of the Eastern Provinces receive their friends from the Western sections of the Country, In explaining that point Rey. Mr. DeMille touched on the fact that he and his family were allowed to camp on the lawn in front of a residence of ope of the chief officials of a prominent coal company, The owner of the home treated them wonderfully well making his camping guests as com: fortable as possible, Referring to the fine crops in Ly: tario, the speaker alluded to the fact that they do not compare with those of the Maritimes. The po- ato crops particularly Impressed the tourists. During their trip Rev. Mr, DeMille and his family went through the Cape Breton coal mines and aiso visited other points of interest, But on returning tec Ontario both he and his family were unanimously agreed that On- tario is Queen of them all. At the outset of his talk Rey. DeMille mentioned the fact that he had just gone from one extreme to the other in that he had been at the Young Peo;%:'s meeting at hjr own church and then hustled over to the Mothers' meeting at the Home and School: Club. "I cap think of a great many other organ- izations less desirable to speak to than this--a mother and teachers' oathering'"'. Here the speaker poin- ted out that the mothers are not engaged in the task of making a living but in training 8 generation to go out and make its living. At the conclusion of the address Rey. Mr. DeMille was tendered » hearty vote of thanks.

Books of Ogres are Horrid for Neurotic Children, ------ Ave these old-time children's " beard" and "Jack the Giant Killer," to be banned from the nursery: They will be if Dr, C. W, Kim- mins, formerly Chief Inspector of Education to the L.C.C., has his Way. In a talk to mothers at Carnegie House, Plceadilly, he recommend- ed, describing them as perfect, the following books: -- "The Three Bears." "Cinderella" (modern sions). Books he banned, saying they were 'horrible for neurotic child- ren because children so rapidly develop fears," were 'Bluebeard and "Jack the Giant Killer." Such books as these, he sald, should never be allowed to reach the nursery, "I was surprised to find," he added, "what a large percentage of children have fear-dreams due to ogre stories and being told that the 'bogie man" would come after them," "Don't" for Parents Five 'don'ts for parents and teachers in thelr dealings with children were given by Dr, Kim- miins, They were:-- Don't do anything to destroy the child's personality. Don't have too rigid discipline. Don't coddle or over-mother the child, Don't so treat the child that he shall lose confidence in himself. Don't do anything to create a ctate of fear in the child. "Children," continued Dr, Kimmer, 'are very much cleverer than we think they are, and they take advantage of it and often score off their parents in a won. derful way."
