his return journey to his home in kingsviue ontario knowing all the engineers be flagged the express which would take him to toronto the conductor soon recognised his passen ger ss the widely known naturalist and he was ushered to the stateroom in the parlor car as the evening drew near one of the passengers in the car approached mr miner and saying there were only three men on thecar asked him if he would make a fsufth and spend the evening play ing cards jsck miner went back to the men and said to them gentlemen i never play cards and i wouldnt think of playing on sunday the lord a day but as an alternative will you join with me in singing some old gospel hymns so these four men instead of play big cards started singing such songs of the car where the remaining pas sengers about a dosen ladles were seated a voice joined in and it was found to be the voice of a noted con cert singer it was not long before the occupants of theuwhola car were singing there was no card playing aa the

reunion officers were elected saying it ik slang another college professor has just taken a wicked crack at slang dr william allan neoson president of smith college telle tibe world that the use of unauthorised word and jut speech within the limits of johnston ian english as it would be to insist that modem dances conform to the rales of the spanish fandango yet the fandango and the english language were imported here at ap- eroximately the same time usage i stronger than dictionaries and pur ists all the world now goes to the movies there was a word that at itwas adapted that all thefs u to it first classed as slang unless they are mere combinations of greek syllablo such as the chemists coin our slang isnt new it slang that gives a word an additional shade of meaning there is a differ ence between slang and poor eng llsh we should not fall into ignor ant mistakes of the use vt words but slang why prof slang is to the ml lagc shiek what a powder puff is to a flapper exchange a matter of names a toronto paper sugirests that the erovinclal highways of this province s given pleasant sounding indian hames instead of unimaginative num bers many tourists of the province according to the paper are of the opinion that it would intrigue the visiting american and western cans dian tourists to a far greater extent to speed along the wyoming mohawk and mtsslssauga traits into toronto than to drive into it over highways number 7 and 2 as is the case at present the idea might be worth consider ing there is very good reason why certain indian names should be per petuated apart altogether from the increasing of toronto a trade in tour ist supplies and if the highways i indianuted why not go a little farther today the highways are liberally decorated w th such sigm md notifications ss hotdogs camps for tourists gasandoil dangerahead at least that is about what catches the eye of the visiting tourist aa he speeds along and it is about all that a good many do see to indicate the character of the landscape would it not be a good idea to turn these highway orna mentations into indian too dbatiir sold at tuesdays meeting of the coun ty council nui tenders were

the vote for the next election the most important change in the jguiations is that at the next election the person to be registered need pot appear before the revising officer in person as was required in the last dominion election nd not attend rson making application for the registration need not even be a relative or employer of the person to be registered all that is necessary is that the revising officer be certain that the applicant knows the clrcum stances and that the person to be reg istered is entitled to vote the off eer is instructed that a mere belief is not sufficient a reasonable ex euse showing why the person to be registered does not apply in person should be given the instructions kint out that the revising officers can hten their duties by depending on the

it needed no great power of imagination to picture the gnef that ntwa would bring to the victims families the calamity that overtook the youths who assembled on that lake shore to spend a holiday together in a fashion becoming manly young canadians in the bright prom of their lives the hope and pride of their parents appeals to one the strongest bonds of human aym pathy accidents in which larger numbers of matured men have lost their lives do not take such a hold upon the hearts of the people at large unhappily the newspapers abound in reporta of deaths at crossings deaths caused by somebodys recklessness on tho highways these are read about excite a passing feeling of sadness and are speedily forgotten it is as if the capacity to feel for others hsd physical limits and that the frequency of fatal accidents tended to indurate the sensibilities of the kindly hearted but when lovely youth in its hours of happy fellowship is swallowed upas were the holidayers on balsam lake we are all made to feel the sense of tears in mortal things man and others there is a discussion in some of e papers as to the significance of the fact that man is about the only animal that must learn to swim if he is to swim at all practically all other animals even those which have least liking for the water can manage to keep afloat as soon a sthey are able to move around on land moat people know that a kitten will swim for its life even before its eyes have opened upon the world into which ft has one explanation offered is that man was intended to live on land but what about cats and horses and cows and many other animals all of which live oh land but swim naturally when compelled to take to the water an other explanation is that man in his early stages went on all fours and could then swim but that he lost the power of svdmralng without learning when he gave up the habh of using his lianda as feet so to speak and assumed an erect position man likes to think of himself as the pride of creation bnt it- would be interesting to know what some of what are called lower animals think about it or would think if there was time to waste in thinking in somo ways man makes but a sorry com parison with some of his contempor aries there are birds which have surer vision with the unaided eye than a man with a telescope man s hearing seems to be dull compared with that of some of the insects a man wfll get lose even when supplied with a map and a compass where a cat will get back without any help no one can run the other fellows ib as well as his own though he may ntil he is able to do so said rev d ferry after a week aa editor pro tern of the yakima daily republic the presbyterian minister took the position after a series of arguments with the editor c w robertson about the republics editorial policy especially in regard to the prohibition law and its enforcement lots of persons think they could newspapers and write editorials without the least difficulty said mr ferry i wish they could all try it once it would develop a ane spirit of tolerance though after the experi ence they might not survive long enough to exemplify it if i had to retire from the ministry i certainly ferry said that he had learned that ireachfng every sunday is nothing ke the strain of filling editorial col umns day by day the demands or newspaper space and time are so re lea tl ess
