The subject of this sketch was born in New- castle, England, on April 11, 1847, and came to Canada fifty-nine years ago, settling in Seymour, where he had resided ever since.

The knocker is in the form of a face of most evil appear- ance, Carrying twigs and feathers the birds passed through the hollow eyes of the head, working diligently whenever the North Door was not :n use. One egg was laid, Then a couple of heedless boys came along when the doorkeeper was away and de- stroyed the nest, Centuries ago Dur- ham Cathedral possessed the pri- vilege of sanctuary for evil doers, the chief memorial' of this being the big bronze knocker, Right down to 1541 this custom prevailed, as the records clearly show. People who escaped from pri- son, or who sought sanctuary after committing a crime, were admitted by the monks, and lived in a cham- ber over the door. They were clothed and fed for 37 days, or until either they had obtained the Prince's par- don, or had been conveyed out of the diocese. Yet the two little sparrows failed to secure the peace they sought. Ope of the unsolved traffic problem js just ho wto get past a 10-ton truck on a 14-foot road. NOT VIGE VERSA: MAY FORCE EDICT Eedwistical Continous in England Object to Present Conditions (By Canadian Press) London,~ July 13--"The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath." The Ecclesiastical Commissioners of England are evi- dently prepared to put this téaching into practice, The commissioners comprise the two archibsh 30 bi- shops, the Prime Minister, the Chan- cellor of the Exchequer, the Lord Chief of Justice, and a number of other high dignitaries, not all of whom are necessarily churchmen. They adminster yearly around a couple of millions sterling of the an- cient revenues of the church. A considerable proportion of these revenues comes from lands. The Commissioners have changed their minds now concerning the playing of games on Sunday on lands under their control. In regard to golf clubs, for example, they have ordained that any course and clubhouse is to re- main closed, and no play to take place before 1 pm. in winter and 2 pm. in the summer. No caddics are to be employed, or any paid labor, Competitions must not be held or matches with other clubs, The "nineteenth hole" is to be closed on cessation of play. Also, of course, the license is to be revocable at the C ioners' pl e. All this notwithstanding, it remains that some Sunday golf is going 0 be play- ed on ecclesiastical ecclesiastical ground. SCIENTISTS MADE OBSERVATIONS AT TEMPLE OF SUN Interesting "Studies Carried Astronomers Into Cen- tral Bolivia (By Canadian Press) La Paz, Bolivia, July 13.--Profes- sor Arturo Posnansky, scientist and founder of the Tiahuanacu museum, and Dr. Rolf Muller, sub-director of the astronomical observatory at Pots- dam, have just returned from an in- vestigation carried out in the pre- historic ruins on the banks of Lake Titicaca. At the Temple of the Sun situated Fin these ruins, Posnansky and Muller observed the stars, sun and moon from the same post at which the an- cient Tiahuanican priests took ob- servations thousands of years ago. The scientists made their observa- tions from June 20 to 23, the time of the Solstice being June 21. The dif- ference between the Tiahuanacan meridian as figured by the ancient i iy and the meridian of today is only 57 minutes, thus demonstrating the exactitude with which the an- cient astronomers carried out their studies. According to Mullge the ancients probably and Posnansky used the polar tablishing with very fine metals the culmination of some of them, thus determining a line exactly south which they marked with a great white sign painted on the side of the moun- tain of rock, 15 kilometers from Tiahuanacy. This could be distng- uished from the observatory in the Temple of the Sun, appearing about the size of an egg. Years ago Professor Posnansky aninouneed his theory that the ancient Tiahuanacans knew mathematically the angle of ecliptic obliquity, He sets the age of the temple as 13 years, the oldest granite Temple of the Sun in the world, TENDERS RESIGNATION Ottawa, July 12.--H, A, Pow- ell of St. Jobn, N.B., one of the Canadian members of the Inter- national Joint Waterways Com- mission, has tendered his resigna- tion to the Government of Canada, and some reorganization of the Commission will now be in order, The Government has recommend- ed that Mr. Powell's resignation be accepted, The present Commissioners were all appointed by his Majesty, but Mr. Powell's successor, it is stated, will be appointed by Order-in- Council, signed by the Goyernor- General, acting upon the adyice of the Dominion Cabinet.

DISMISSED BECAUSE - HE WORE CLOTHING MANAGER DIDN'T LIKE Bi ---- London, July 13.--Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, But not expressed in fancy, rich not gaudy, For the apparel oft proclaims the man, The appropriate dress for the man- ager of a eneral store was discuss- ed in the King's Bench, before the Lord Chief Justice. John Hay Morren, of Golders Green, said he was engaged as gen- eral manager of the provision and eneral stores of Excel Co, Ltd, © ussell Gardens, Kensington. He was suing them for wrongul dismis- sal, because he alleged that although he was engaged as a general manager at $2,500 a year, rising to $4, he found that after he.arrived from Scot- land he was given merely the man- agership of a branch shop at Gold- ers Green. He resented this, and was dismissed, Montague Abrahams, the managing director of the company, said that he found Mr. Morren in the shop at Golders Green wearing a hard felt hat, and an ordinary lounge suit, He ought to have worn suitable clothes. His Lordship: "As if he were going to a garden party?' "He was cynical, and I told him that he would have to 'drop' that, as most of his customers were women, and he must be affable to them," Mr, Abrahams said. "Do they like an affable manager? Does it make them buy an extra half pound of butter?" "Sure they do like it." The jury found Mr, Morren for $1,800 damages.

Salvation Army Oficial Dis. wilt * Quosiion In "Empire Review" (By Canadisn Prost London, 'July 13. Whe 2 wrong with migration? asks Commissioner David Lamb, of the Salvation Army in this month's Empire Review. Commissioner Lamb says Canadian thought is largely influenced by economic, racial, and political con- siderations--no where else in the Em- pire so sharply or cearly defined-- and a strange conflict of opinions creates many cross currents. The whole on has much in common with its southern meighbor, he be- lieves. But is the subtle influence of the Monroe doctrine unconsciously weak- ening the ties with the home land? asks Commissioner Lamb. "Is the material Jrosperity of the Dominion heing built up at the expense of the ideals which inshited 4 the early Bri- tish settlers. Why does Canada ap- pear to be lukewarm on the question of the British navy? Why is Que- bec showing herself unmistakably 2 bulwark for the Empire on the erican continent? "Political power still rests--as it has done for generations--in Quehes. With the development of the Prairie provinces, however, it is shifting rapidly West, and in a few years the political control of the dominion will no longer rest with the province of Quebec, or, indeed, in the East. It can scarcely be expected, therefore, to find the East particularly happy about having to contribute to bring even British settlers to the dominion. "Our Empire selection machinery is not human enough. It lacks elas- ticity and common sense, Here are samples of rejects--(a) stammers; (b) squints; (c) wears glasses; (d) is above average weight; (e) is two inches short in stature; (f) twenty years of age, was convicted when a child of eleven-and-a-half of thieving and sleeping out; (g) aged sixteen, when eight was convicted of steal- ing eggs. "Then a woman has to make a journey of some miles to meet an unknown man (Government inspec- tor, who, by the way, has never been overseas), and for identification pur- poses she must walk in front of the bookstall of the railway station with her handkerchief in her left hand; while a boy is told 365 days in a 'year is the wrong answer (again by a Government representative who has never been overseas), But all of these people are of good general health and character, and capable of earning their living in the homeland. 0:2] v SE "One wonders if, for example, the Suitable Furniture ogds AR XY ARs Reed Davenport Suites in a selling of remarkable Arcade Daily News SNAPPY STYLED SUMMER SKIRTS For Misses.
