Pour into a dish and heap whipped cream on top. Drayton, Acting Prime Minister, in a statement issued Wednesday night, announces that at the pext session of Parliament the Government will re-introduce the Act presented by it shortly before "wissolution, ex- tending, for one year, the time in which civil servants may elect to come under the Superannuation Act, "This will afford an opportunity," declares Sir Henry, "for proper con- sideration of the question which has never yet been considered, but high- ly essential, and that is the gques- tion of those civil servarits who. 'although working for years and years, are still technically looked upon as temporary. The position of each employee in each and every department must be considered on the actual merits and apart from any technical distinction." The. text of Sir Henry's statement, which makes reference to the case of employees of the Soldiers' Set- tlement Board, js as follows: "A large number of representa- tions have been made with refer- ence to the position of members of the Civil Service who do not as'yet enjoy the benefits of the leg- islation, respecting the Civil Ser- vice Superannuation Act. It is pointed out that, by reason of the classification of employment, that is, i | the so-called 'temporary' as against 'permanent,' and also by reason of the fact that the employees of certain departments are not un- der the Civil Service Commission, 64TH BIRTHEDAY rename vx woroeQR- BARON -BY¥NG Ottawa, Sept. iU--Baron Byng of Vimy, - Governor-General of.

Holland "Many in the service whose em- Contractor ployment is designated as temporary are in fact permanent. The ques- tion of superannuation and pen- sions ought to turn entirely on the merits, class of work, length of service and the like, rather than on any technical distinction as be- tween temporary and permanent employees. This certainly was the intention of Parliament in passing the Act in 1924, as is shown by the discussion reported in Hansard. HUSBANDS ARE 10 BE ADMITTED Attempt by English Women To Run a Self-Supporting Colony Fails (NDNA 3/8 " One or More Acres For Sale Rodger Road North Good Orchard and Garden Soil ~ ANB NNN Phone 372 15 Colborne St. E. [IAN >) = >) London, Sept. 9.--An attempt by {| women to run a self-supporting col- |jony at Lingfield without the help of W/W ------ xv , in > men has failed, and after an experi- ment of nearly six years it has been decided -to admit husbands The colony, consisting of 100 acres, close to the main East Grin- stead road, was bought by the Wo- men's Farm and Garden Association. It was started by half a dozen young' women who did not believe that men are solely the tille®s of the soil. It was established-as a colony of women with a communal idea, but independence of action in everything save the right to introduce a hus- band. They became tenants of small holdings of from three to five acres each. ~ One took 1g the breéding of An- gora rabbits, another became the possessor of a small herd of cows, a third turnéd her land into a good: vegetable garden; while a fourth, who is an excellent cook, made bread and cakes for the little community. They decided to sell their surplps produce to outsiders and built a shop on the road, where teas are supplied | to motorists. The Were Mill Colony, as it is called from an old mill on the eés-! tate, became prosperous, its fruit trees numbered several hundreds. To Do the Heavy Work But only a part of the land has been cultivated, and the women have! had to admit that the colony is not all they desire. They have decided that a man's strength is needed to do the heavy wark, and so they have relaxed the original rules. The members who have married will be able to let their husbands help them on their holdings, but the men will not be allowed any voice in the management of -the colony, The women are to retain control. Three husbands have already arriv- ed at the colony. Mrs. R. Gentry, a tall, graceful woman with fair shingled hair, told me that the theory that women could suitably cultivate the soil wihout the assistance of men had brokén down under experience. REGARD DEBT T0 THE U. 5. CLOSED British People Intend to Pay in Full, Sir Esme Howard Says Quebee, Que., Sept. 10--Insofar as sound public opinion in England is concerned, the problem of Great Britain's war debt to the United States is settled, and: there likelihood of the British men reopening the matter, was the statement made by Sir Esme How- ard, British ambassador to the Un- ited States, who is in Quebec for a brief visit. Accompanied by his three sons. Francis, Edmund and Henry, Sir Esme Howard motored to the an- cient capital from the summer quarters of the British embassy, at Manchester, People Intend To Pay "The only thing I can say," de- clared Sir Esme, when asked re- gardig the current debt cancella- tion rumors," is to repeat the rec- ent statement of Sir Austin Cham- SETT'S * SPECIALS ; "un CLOCKS |! 8 day Kitchen, regular $7.50 for Ladies' Watches 14K + Solid Guld, reg- ular $20.00, for $11.50 Gent's Watches A very Special Value.

That is to say the ques- fon has been settled, and that it is not-for.us to reopen it. Everyone, in England ifatends to pay the debt as long as here is aphysical DOS- gibility of paying, and there seems to he mp reason why it should not be paid in its entirety." Concerning the solution of the Baker, Sir Esme said that that was a matter for the Americaw people hemselves, and that he could not discuss it. Deplores Debt Discussion Sir Esme declared that he very much deplored the discussion of the debt question with which the news- papers have lately been filled. English papers, especially. thought, had made several tunate statements. The funding of the British debt to the United States, the British am- bassador went on, was the best ar- rangement that could have heen made at the time, 8S a result of his settlethent, he sald, Great Bri- tain reaped certain definite advan- tages. In the first place the fund- ing of he debt helped to tabilize currency and was largely instru- the pound sterl- ing back to par. Secondly, this arrangement brought an improve- ment to the general credit of Eng- land, both in the United States and elsewhere, i WOMAN SHERIFF he unfor- Three Prisondss.
