"How did you know I was up here?" asked Mrs, Peter mischiey- ously. When I awoke and didn't find you in the dear old Briar-patch J thought of the Old Pasture right away," replied Peter promptly and quite truthfully, "You never go to the Green Forest or the Old Or- chard, and you used to live in the Old Pasture, so where else should I Jook for you?" Little Mrs, Peter chiseled inside, Aloud she exclaimed: "Peter, how nice you look! How handsome and big and strong and brave you are! You are simply wonderful, my dear." Peter blinked and looked at little Mrs, Peter suspiciously, but all he saw in her cyes was loving admira- tion, and the thought came to him that they were the softest eyes he ever had looked into, But all he said was: "Suppose we go call on your father, Old Jed Thumper." "I've already called on him and he didn't seem particularly glad to sce me," replied little Mrs, Peter, "I think he has lived alone by him- self too much, It isn't good for any one to be too much alone, Now if he had some good neiwhbors it might be different." "He would never get along with neighbors, never in the world," said Peter in a most decided tone, "It would be nice if some other Rabbit came here to live, Don't vou think so?" said Mrs. Peter, hat reminded Peter that Molly might be somewhere about and show up any minute, It wouldn't do for Mrs, Peter to see her or for her to sce Mrs. Peter, "Don't you think we better Le moving along, my dear?" said he, hastily, 'We are quite a distance from the dear old briar- Date h and we don't want to hurry, "But!, 0 tow r homie Mrs. what 7" "What," asked ePter.

Wouldn't it be nice if we should find, some other young couple in love living somewhere in the Old Pasture after all?" replied Mrs, Péter. Again Peter looked at her suspi- ciously but her soft eyes showed him nothing but love and admira- tion, and again he didn't know what to think. (Copyright, ", W.

UNIVERSITY EXTENSION LECTURE Professor Barker Fairley, of Toronto, gave the first of his series of five lectures on modern drama at the University Exten- tion Class last evening. Professor Fairley was heard on several occasions last season und judging from the large at- tendance last night his popular~ ity has not waned, His lectures are intensely Interesting and alive with real wit, Speaking particularily of the Problem Play, Professor Fairley stated that Isben wag really the originator of this type of drama although several examples were produced before his time, These plays dealt with the natural and social problems of the day, Weavers" by a German Hauptmann was in the speaker's opinion the highest example of this form of drama. Displaying extremely skillful handling and genuine dramatic tactfulness, Galsworthy's "Silver Box" and George Bernard Shaw's 'Major Barbara' were reviewed briefly. The point brought out most for- cibly by the speaker was that while these plays dealt with soc- {al problems ol the individual and community they did not preach, but appealed rather to the sym- pathies and emotions, leaving the listeners to form thelr own con- clusions, Next week Professor Fairley will speak on the Irish cortribu- tion for modern drama, NO TIME LIMIT FOR DIVORCES Supreme Court of Great Britain Makes Ruling Lcndon~(C.P.) -- An important ruling was given by the British supreme' Court recently on "stale" divorce cases, the Court deciding that there was no time limit thereon and delay was not a bar, Some 50 law books dealing with marital cases were brought by counse) to Supreme Court when Justice Gardiner and Justice Sutton were asked to de- cide the important divorce problem as to whether there was any limit to the time in which a husband or wife could claim a resitution order, failing which divorce, 'Two cases were argued by counsel that of George Davidson Carey who was suing his wife, Mary Jane, for restitution, and that of Engela van der Ness against her husband, Nicolaas Jacobus Johannes van der Ness, Evidence was given that Mrs, Carey deserted her husband 37 years ago. Mrs, van der Ness alleg- ed that her husband deserted over JU years ago. In both cases Justice Gardiner questioned whether the Court shou' agsist in such "stale" deser- tions and postponed them to enable counsel to look up the authorities, Advocates appeared to argue the point, Justice Gardiner, dealing with Carey's case, held that the Courts did not have a statutory discretion to refuse restitution or ders if the desertion was many years old. "The cases show that decrees have oeen granted after a long de lay, and 1 cannot find any legal ground for refusing to grant a re- stituti- . order and finally Jivorce," said the Judge-President, "I do not mean to say that delay in bringing a matrimonial action may never uf- fect the Court's action, but it seems to me that if iit affects it, it will do so by way of evidence. Delav is not a bar preventing the plaintiff from getting an order for restitu~ tion, Carev was granted a restitution order, Justice Sutton, granting Mrs. van der Ness an order, agreed with the reasons given by the Judge- President. a -------------- Pupils in approximately 3000 Bri- tish schools now receive daily lessons aver the radia "The | writer | Enlarge Deaf School Belleville.--~In a program with an peuditure of over a quarter of a million dollars, soon to he un- taken by the Department of Edu- cation at the Ontario School for the Deaf, the local unemploy- ment problem will be solved to a material degree.
