NO CAUSE FOR - ALARM IS REPORT "Flu" Outbreaks Little More Than Severe Colds, Says Deputy Ottawa, Dec, 15,--There is no cause for alarm in regard to 'influenza, Dr, i A. Amyot, Deputy Minister of] ealth, declared yesterday. . "There is some influenza about,' Dr. Amyot said, "but reports of an epidemic are exaggerated. Many cases amount to nothing more than bad colds, "It should be remembered that no one ever dies of influenza alone, It is only 'when there are complications that there is danger. Reports re- ceived by the department do not in- dicate that any complichtions are pre- sent now." It was wise, however, to take pre- cautions, "When sympton.s appear one should go to bed," he advised, "and stay there until ten days after they disappear." In that way spread- ing of the infection would be sub- stantially reduced.

Barclay's Bank of London Is one of the "big five" with resources as shown in the balance sheet as ar June 30 of approximately $1,800,- 000,000 For some time past the bank has been represented in Montreal by a subsidiary company, under the ti- tle of "Barclay (Canada) Limit. ed," which however, owing to Can. adian banking laws, has been able to render .only very limited ser- vices, and has not been im a pos: tion to offer the facilities of an an agency or a branch bank repre- senting the "Barclay Group." The proposed bank will have an authorized and paid up capital of $500,000 with a reserve fund of a like amount, the majority of the capital being subscribed by Baré lay's Bank, Limited, and Barclay's Bank (Dominion, Colonial and Ov- erseas), This latter institution it will be recalled, was formed in February, 1926, by the amalgama- tion of the National Bank of South Africa, the Anglo-Egyptian Bank and the Colonial Bank; with the ob- ject of furthering the interests of Imperial trade, and has branches at most of the important centres of the Empire. It is understood that Sir Robert Borden will accept the office of President of the new Bank, A scientist says that he can con- vert wood into food. After this ey- en more people will be looking for cheap board. --Ottawa Journal.

Dec. 15. -- In con- nection with a recent recital given by Miss Winnifred Christie on a two-manual piano at Queen's Hall here A. Kalisch, music critic for the Daily News and Westminster Ga- zette, says: "The two-manual piano has been accepted as a great improvement by many of the leading pianists of the day, some of whom predict that it fore-shadows a complete revolution in piano playing. Without going quite so far it is safe to say that it has many advantages and makes much musie playable by the average performer which at present is pos- sible only for a virtuoso--and it gives a virtuoso the opportunity of attend- ing more to interpretation. "Miss Christie is certainly an ar- tistic pianist. She developed an im- posing volume of tone, and her oe- tave playing was remarkable. The two manuals enabled her to bring out melodies with extraordinary clearness, and her. basses were re- markably sonorous, while the upper register of the piano had a beautiful quality."

That 'new in- formation," it is understood, con- cerned two other men alleged to have been implicated in- the mail train robbery which preceded the roadside encounter in which Jack- son was shot, This has been investigated by a provincial police officer epecially assigned to the task, with the re. sult that nothing new is before the Minister of Justice, because the investigation led nowhere. At the time the reprieve was granted --on the very day that the Federal cabinet had decided against clem- ency--the Department of Justice mide clear that unless new mater- fal facts became available, there would be no change in that de- cision, Hangman Released All of which means that Burow- gki's Interrupted sentence will in all probability be carried out one week hence, Ellis, official hang- Buy Your Christmas Gifts Now A wonderful selection to pick from. 84 Simcoe St. S.
