In Kn»rland, during the Middle Ages, though no theatres were built. Home forms of dramatic enl^rtain- menl were extremely popular, and were carried on with much splendor of dresses and other properties. In the fifteenth century almost every one of the great guilds or sacred fra- .t er nl tie s "wu sif m^ ifort of miru'le - plaf; ffB!rall/"'cTiSifflT'ltrre7ei'l?!)ce Jo the patron-s&lnl of the guild. In- ventories of the theatrical propertiei of some of these guilds still exist, and in some cases the list Includes tbe most gorgeous silk and gold damasks and maguiticent damascened onnor, altogether worth in modern money some thousands of iiounds. The story of St. Uoorge rescuing the princess from tbe dragon was a very fa-vorite subject, tbe princess being clad Id the richest dress, adqrned with real jewelry of high value, and St, George wearing very costly and elaborate armor. The dragon was an imD)«n,8e monster made of leather and larg'! enough to contain seven or eight men, who worked the various parts of its body. .'lig'^^**' " '-'^ f. . , Food is Dearer.

Vision Your Sons, Mothers of Canada! Vision them at early morning when through the rising mists, there bursts a hurricane of fire- See your valiant boysâ€" calm, grim, but cheerful, "stand-to-arms" until the Hun's "morning hate" dies away. Picture them at breakfast, the meal that must bring them the bodily sus- tenance to carry them through the strain of another day. Then think what might happen if, one morning, there was no breakfast â€"no food^ and word went down the lines that Canada had failed them. Vision all these things, and thenâ€" as Women of Canada â€" Mothers of Menâ€" -Answer this Call to Service. Canada must send to Her Own, and to the Allies Fighting Forces, more wheat, more beef, more bacon, and more of such other foods as are non- perishable and easily exported. Canada cfin do this without depriv-^ ing her own population of a fair share of any of these foods if You Women will but help. All we ask of you is, that instead of buying so much white flour (if you do your own baking) you vary your baking by using one-third oatmeal, corn, bar- ley or rye flour. Or, if you buy your bread, that you order a certain pro- portion of brown bread each day. Second, instead of using as much beef and bacon as formerly, you vary your family's diet, by substituting for beef and bacon such equally nutritious foods as fish, peas, lentils, potatoes, nuts, bananas, etc. Third, and this is most important, '"positively prevent the waste of a single ounce of food in your house- hold. They Must Be Fed Statistics show that, everyday, in Canada, sufficient food is thrown into grarbaflre cans to feed the entire Canadian Overseas Army. Travellers I-.^ve often remarked that many a European family would live well upon the quantity and quality of food wasted in some Canadian homes. Such waste is shameful at any time; but in these times it is criminal. Our only hope it that with these truths before you, and in view of the vital issues at stake, we may count upon your earnest co-operation in stopping this appalling watte; and in substituting other foods for the wheat, beef and bacon that must be sent overseas. Next week a Food Service Pledge and Window Card will be delivered to you. It is your Dedication to War Service. The Window Card is your Emblem of Honour.

During February of this year the weekly coii'Vietions for drunkenness In London fell ronsiderably below the lowest level of 1916, und in many areas were reduced to proportions not previously attained. The Metro- politan police area showed a total of 409 for the week ending February 26, against a weekly average of 560 in 1916 and of 997 for 1915. Man- ehester gave an average for the four weeks of February of 30, as compar- ed with 50 for 1916 and 83 for 1915. Edinburgh ligurea have fallen to 44, as compared with 75 last year. Glas- gow had only 180 convictions for drunkenness, compared with 522 In 1915 and 319 in 1916. Aiwrdeen and Dund«e are also satisfactory. The general result is that in January and February, 1917, in the scheduled areas there has been a decrease of about 21 per cent, from the weekly average for 1916. Knew of the niictiess. When the Shah of Persia visited England, many years aso, he was presented to the Duchess of West- minster, and greeted her heartily. "I have heard much about you," he said. "Your worthy name is well ki^own in my country." The Duchess was surprised at first, then a light dawned upon her. "Gracious me! I do believe he mistakes me for Weat- inlnster Abbey?" she said.
