He swung around then, his smouldering, "For the time being, if you don't mind, Diana, I'd rather be alone," he said, "I may be common, as you have done the goodness to remind me, and a common man easily loses his temper. 1 am sorry I lost mine, As you say, these things can be re placed, I suppose money will do anything and everything, but at the same time with things as they, are today 1 do not wish to waste money," "What do you mean?" she asked quickly. "You haven't been dropping money have you, Michael, over those City concerns?" He, noted there was alarm in her voice, and wondered how much she knew of the Trottenlelgh Corpora- tion and other concerns into which he had been invelgled lately, "One never knows," he answered. "So long as I stuck to Multi-Motors 1 was safe, Now I'm not certain how I stand. I haven't been entirely lucky, as you know lately, either in other directions." She lighted a cigarette, placed it nn a jade holder, and waited for a minute, "Well, waat is a few thousands to a man like you?" she remarked, He made no answer, Fury again overtook Michael as he inspected the Minstrel"s Gallery, where workmen had started to re- move the old pipe organ at her in- structions, Although he could not play a note, Michael had his plans all ready for this, and with a player- organ with mechanism had visualiz- ed his enjoyment, But for his pie- occupation in town during the past few weeks, the work would have been set in hand, It was in a thor oughly bad frame of mind he sat down to dinner, but mellowed by an excellent meal and a bottle of wine, went out into the rose-garden after- wards. J ' Tall white lilies, with grezt gold- en anthers, bowed as he passed the herbaceous border, Canterberry bells, day-lilies, sweet peas and lark- spur bloomed. In the elms rooks were cawing, and up the winding road which Jet between the village beyond and the farmhouse on the hill he saw a hay-cart slowly® move alone, Peace came back. Michael Borde sighed, and looked with pride at the old grey house, "It's mine," he whispered, and a little - whispering breeze swept through the roses, It seemed as though they laughed with him. eyes THE CRASH, Eating a leisurely breakfast, sun- shine streaming in, but with the faint sound of workmen's hammers reaching him from a distant quarter of the old house, Michael Borde felt very much at peace with the world, and the heart sickness had gone, He dismiissed memorles as one does all theughts of a bad dream, and gave himself up to one day's enjoyment, "Yes, Barton," he was saying, "I think I'll stay, and then motor up to town In the cool of the evening, It's going to be a scorcher. Lovely, though, Isn't it?" Suddenly he turned. He had heard steps on the gravel outside, but had taken no notice. The door opened, Diana Hamfill-Hardy came in. He sprang to his feet, but some- thing in her eyes puzzled him, and before he could say a word she turn- ed to Barton, the old butler who had 'been in her father's service since he was a lad.

You might fetch it for me," "Yes, my lady," he answered, but Barton knew, as did Michael Borde, that the words were an excuse to get him from the room, and directly the door closed she faced him with an extraordinary smile.

Arrest of Lord Trottenleigh......... 4 He stood upright and felt beads of perspiration spring up to his fore- head, fearing something he could only guess at, and remembering the meeting he was to have attended yesterday afternoon, For days past he had been uneasy, but had been unable to concentrate on the matter concerning that financial undertak- ing on which Trottenleigh and his fellow directors were engaged.

During the worst of the depression years the per capita consumption "of pork ran- from 83 pounds in 1931 to 74 in 1933 and beef from 57 to 56. But in 1934, when things were better, the con- sumption of pork fell to 66 pounds and beef rose to 68. It was the first year since the depression set in that the Canadian people ate more beef than pork. It was evident that, while pork might have been dearer in the worst years, they could make it go farther. Canadians eat com- paratively little mutton and lamb. The per capita consumption is only six or seven lbs, And yet lamb and mutton, next to fowl, is the best meat to eat. An Orderly Dog Edmonton Journal -- Occasionally observes the Edmonton Journal, there come from our courts pro- nouncements that are out of the ore dinary but that immediately com- mend themselves to the good sense of the community, Such a one emanated from the Calgary Police Court the other day and reveals Magistrate H, G. Scott in a Solomonie¢ light. He ruled that a dog going in orderly fashion to the butcher shop to get his daily ra- tions, according to his regular cus- tom cannot be declared to be wan- dering at large. Under this ruling, a charge against one John Riddock of violating a city by-law was dismiss- ed Riddock admitted his dog was ab- out a block from his house without being under immediate restraint, He explained however, that the 12-year- old Airedale was in the habit of go- ing daily to a nearby butcher shop for a bone and on the occasion cited a Wednesday afternoon, the dog for- got about the butcher shop being olosed for the halt holiday and was standing barking at the door when observed by the police constable. Such a dog could not be described as "wandering at large," the court held. He was in lawful pursuit of his bus- iness and might be described as a purposeful dog. "You might warn him about the early closing bylaw," th® magistrate advised Riddock, a remark which says the 'report was greeted with laughter, But why? An intelligent dog would soon re- alize that his butcher shop had two "Sundays" a week, and being a pur- poseful and orderly dog, would act accordingly. Undoubtedly on this occasion he was not inciting his butcher to a breach of the Wednes- day closing bylaw, He, as his mas- ter explained, just forgot, Even hu- mans do that, as witness the ap- pearance of a tin of pork and beans for Wednesday evening dinners, Should Be Drafted For War Women Cleveland--Amelia Earhart, noted aviatrix, believes women should be drafted for war just the same as men. "Women should be used behind the lines, doing anything that - able- bodied women can do," Miss Earhart said. The aviatrix emphasized she did not wish to convey the idea that she believes in war, but that in her own case she would want to fly a fight- ing plane if the United States were attacked. = 2 REVEAL ?

R. writes as follows: "I am a widow with two children, and have been corresponding with a man from the West. He wishes to marry me, and although I have never seen him, his letters are so pleasant that I find myself drawn to him. He is married, but has not lived with his wife for some years, and offers to get a divorce if I accept his offer of marriage. I feel that I should re- marry, because I am still young, but I naturally don't want to make a mistake. My first marriage was very happy, and my husband left me a substantial sum of money. Any help you care to give me in showing what you think my correspondent is real- ly like will be welcome." ~~ I am sorry that I cannot be overly- optimistic about your chances of making a really favourable marriage with the man who is writing to you. He is not generous--he is, as =a matter of fact, of rather a narrow viewpoint; not really broadminded. He is likely to get very irritable, if not bad tempered and whilst a lot of us have that little trait allied as it is in this case with narrowness of mind it shows that this man is not easy to live with, He is rather changeable, too. He will be inconsistent, not at all stable, temperamentally, but fickle in his moods. It would be difficult to understand him at times. Another characteristic that stands out is this man's vanity, He ex- presses this in his letter to you when he remarks on the number of lady friends that he has had, and, whilst he is endeavouring to convey a sub- tle compliment to you, in that he prefers you to all the others, this also shows conceit. And his hand- writing bears this out very clearly. I mentioned that he is not very generous, I would go further and say that he is economical and cautious to the point of parsimony.

A i a ne ei lll isl La --- FRIENDS OF THE CROW DENOUNCE EFFORTS FOR HIS EXTERMINATION |rom the Chicago Daily News.) The Illinois Department of Con- servation is making war on crows. Its bombers boast of slaughtering 160,000 since the first of the year, and hope to kill 200,000 more by spring. When Mother Nature balanc- es her accounts with these violent conservationists they may not 'be so proud. She has a way ow demon- strating the wisdom of her own order that frequently has made her human revisionists appear very foolish. There are two major counts in the indictment-of the crow. He helps himself to the farmer's grain with an almost insulting bravado, and he kills: the young of our lovely song- birds. We fear. that a verdict of "guilty" must be rendered on both those counts. But there is something to be said in mitigation of his of- fenses, Against his thefts of grain should be set his insatiable appetite for field mice and other small mammals, for insects and cutworms, One authority declares that he "amply repays the farmer for what he tak- es by destroying the vermin in the fields," Fewer crows, more mice and cutworms--so nature may take toll for man's interference. It is less easy to palliate the crow's criminal assaults on the nests of other birds, but many ornithologists hold that murderous offense is rare--much rarer, prob- ably, than man's violence to mem- bers of his own species. Possibly the human race should be _exter- minated -- some pessimistic phil- osophers have suggested as much --but the majority is still opposed to a remedy so drastic. Generally the crow is conceded to be the most intelligent of birds. Captured when young he soon be- comes fearlessly familiar with hu- man folk. He is discriminating, picking whom he. will for company, and raucously scolding those he dis- likes. Always he remains a rascal, a lovable rascal, cockily independent and impudently predatory. Only a mind insensitive to na- ture's moods could upon the etched beauty of the scene when, as the setting sun hangs on the dark edge of the distant woods, the crows come cawing from the fields in flock formation to merge DrRWerner's Power FOR HOLDING "Ss 4 No slipping or slid- Inga el onyn when you use th grand powder that most dentists pre- scribe--it's a joy to all users and is the largest seller in the world--leaves no colored, gummy taste rug stores, Jook unmoved' 'with the mystery of the lengthen- ing shadows.

Australian Writer Asks Moré Sympathy For Movement, -- Suggests Change In Uniforms. An appeal for more public ap- preciation of the Girl Guide move- ment and suggestions for changes in the uniform to make it more at- climates are made by "Vesta," women's editor of The Melbourne Argus, following the recent visit of the Chief Scout and Chief Guide, Lord and Lady Baden-Powell, and the various celebrations in Australia. The article says: 'Why is it the Girl Guides have failed to envoke the sympathy and enthusiasm that has been poured out unsparing- Why is it they find it diffigdlt, to obtain an ade: quate' number of suitable Guiders? "It is not enough to say that the Guide movement is younger than the Scouts, It has to be admitted that the. movement in Australia has not even begun to rouse any fervid sentiment in the public at large, and that women generally have still to be convinced of. its value to the individuals composing it and to the community outside." The Australian writer declares those who have been responsible for the building up of the Guide organ- ization have had to meet a strong though silent opposition due to the persistence of the idea that girls should spend as much of their time as possible in their own homes, and that anything, except school, that takes them out of their homes is likely to have a bad influence on them. "Notwithstanding the fact that many forms of recreation and plea- sure do in any case take girls fre- quently out of their homes, and not- withstanding the fine moral in- fluence that the Guide precepts and laws should exercise, this objection is still frequently met with and per- sisted in, however reasonably and logically it 'may be answered," the artcile says. "Personally, I was much d'sap- pointed that with so many Guides | gathered together 'here, there was no occasion on - which the public could see them in their strength, independently of the boys. My own impression was that the various companies of Guides are kept too busy sight-seeing in addition to their camp activities." : The Argus women's editor de- claves: "The present uniform is in many cases neither becoming nor neat, so that it is impossible to re- gard it with much pride. It is most unsuitable, too, in our hot weather, which calls for something light in color as well as light in weight. I understand that it is permissable to use lightweight materials in sum mer; but navy blue is a color which does not look well in thin, cheap materials, and a Guide uniform must be inexpensive." : The writer observed that "some of the Australian women Cubmasters looked very well in their pleated khaki skirts nad blouses, and 'some shade of dark fawn might be found prattical for Guides. "Not all countries have adopted the navy blue uniform, so that there is no reason why we should adhere to it," the editor says. "The black stockings worn with it, too, are both hot and ugly; and I am sure that the movement would benefit if some uniform more becoming and more adapted to our climate could be de- vised. A normal girl likes to look her best, and it would probably be found easier to obtain Guiders also if they were not asked to assume a iso which few of them really ike." Duchess of Kent "Sweetest Girl One Miss Florence Forrest, of Port Hope, Ontario, who has been in Ja- maica all winter the guest of her aunt, Mrs. Lewis Emery, Jr, had the honor of being invited by the Duke and Duchess of Kent for, luncheon at "Sunset Lodge" where they have been spending their honey- moon. "Sunset Lodge" is the attrac- tive bungalow which is chatelaine. Mrs. Emery put--with its staff of servants -- at the command of the Royal couple. Writing to her mother in Port Hope, Miss Forrest describes the Duchess of Kent as "extremely beautiful and wonderfully charming --just the sweetest girl one could wish to know." Of the Duke of Kent she said: "He is tall and fair, has curly hair and blue eyes and not etilted, as his pictures seem to 'make him." They made her very much at home, said this young woman who was called to the Bar in September last, and will upon her return take up the practice of law.
