WORK ALL NIGHT IN WESTERN HARVEST Use Flares to Rush the Work Along -- Operations Set New Grain Records Winnipeg, Man,, Oct, 23--Thresh- ing outfits working all night by the light of flares, motor lamps and in some cases kerosene lamps are responsible for smashing the grain marketing records made Thursday. A total of 7,589,420 bushels of grain were rushed to elevators of the Canadian National and Canadi. an Pacific Rallways Friday. The Canadian Pacific elevators received 4,464,429. which broke the previ- ous high record made Thursday. On the Canadian National the market. ings were 3,185,000 bushels for Friday, which also marekd sn in- crease over the day previous, ° ing in Full Swing, Edmonton, Alta, Oct, 23 -- Threshing has again been in full swing as a result of the excellent weather throughout the province the past week, says a. report from the Department of Agriculture. The sun and wind have largely remedied the effect of the mains, and a good deal of the grain - having been threshed is grading "straight." It is estimated that at the end of the present week 35 to 40 per cent of the season's crop will have been threshed and three to four weeks of favorable weather should see threshing completed. Reports from a number of points indicate that threshing returns are exceeding earlier pedictions as to yield, and the majority of recently threshed wheat is grading Ne: 2 or No. 3. Good progress is being made with the threshing of oats and bar- ley and very little damage is appar- ent as & result of westhering. Fully 50 per eent of the threshing is completed in the Peace River, Grande Prairie and Spirit River districts, and a high average yield is reported over large areas in this part of the Province. Elevators generally have had no difficulty in handling the run of grain, A slight shortage of farm labor ie reported from a number of points, especially in the south of the province. This factor has delayed sugar beet harvesting to some ex. tent. The yield of sugar beets is estimated at fully a tom per acre heavier than last year's crop, and the sugar content of the beet shows 8 decided fimcrease. Pastures have held out well dur- ing the Fall months, and livestock is in good condition, with an ample supply of feed available for the com. in Winter, } Good progress is being made with Fall plowing in fields cleared of stooks, and following the rains of the past few weeks the soil will en- ter the Winter in a promising condi- tion as regards moisture for mext season's erop. .

S. | Dougall in Taking "Sweethearts" for First of Series of Subjects on "The Home" Declares Marriage is a Divine Insti tution That issue of marriage licenses shculd be contingent om ynedical ex- amination was earne tly advocated hy H. S. Dougall, Ph.ls, in his ser- mon at the Simcoe Street United Church last night on the subject of 'Sweethearts"--the first of a Sunday 'vening series on the "Home," For his subject Dr. Dougall read the story of Rebekah and Isaac which he crmed one of the most beautiful of il love stories. His text was Genesis 59: "And they called Rebekah and 'aid unto her, 'Wilt thou go with this nan?' and she said: 'IT will go." Dr. Dougall declared that his ser- mon was based on many years experi- nce of humanity, and though he was mahle to say just 'how many young :ouples he had united in the irrevo- 'able tie of marriage, he had followed many of their careers with interest, Trom that study he declared he had ar- "ved where he had but little faith in he theory of "love at first sight ;" that here must be common sense in affec- ion; and he advised women against marrying a man to reform him, to he \ mother to him, or his Sunday school eacher. "Marriage is not merely a civil con- tract," Dr. Dougall began his address, "it is a Divine institution. "We read in the Scriptures that wo- man was created out of the side of mn, next to his heart, and no man is what he ought to be until he 'finds a woman and can put her back where she belongs." The speaker expressed sweeping dis- gust with the fact that love, marriage, and married life are made the subject of humorous and frivolous comment. His denunciation of this attitude in- cluded both pulpit. and pew; and he de- clared: "Be it minister or eu aul b who' refers to the subjects of courtship and marriage as being funny or frivolous, then such reference made before am intelligent audience is an jnsult' to every man or woman in it who is mar- ried." Christ's own words were used by the speaker to define the Divine aspect of m rriage, in which the Master declares "For this gauze shall a man forsake father and mother and cleaye unto his wife," God Is Love "For this cavse?" Dr. Dougall que- ried, "for what cause? What cause is there for a maiden to leave her home as Rebekah left hers, The mating in- stinct, that which in nature inspires the birds to build their nests. No, there is something more than mere instinct, A word will define it, a divine word-- love. God is love." "At the very heart of life stands the marriage altar," the speaker continued, "but some of you in this audience have cause to blush that you pray abot everything else but this mystery *of love, home and marriage. Is there a providence over everything but love and lovers? I tell you that Almighty God does not leave love and marriage to chance. There is a guiding angel for the conscientious and the prayer- ul. "Do not hesitate, I' beg of you, to commit this greatest of all life's prob- directing province of the Father of "There must be, also, some common sense in affection. There is a future of than romantic glamor and sentimen- tal interest. Romanticism js not en for the 365 days of the year, for the 365 days of year after year in which the married must abide with each other. "I have come to a place where I have very little sympathy with the theory of 'love at first sight' Love at first sight is too much of a physical thing, animal--the attraction of a pretty face or a figure "Ah, but first foye may grow into long love, but in that love which en- dures there must be something as sub- stantial as the Rock of Gibraltar. "The security of aun engagement must rest on respect. It is mothing short of a hell on earth to have to abide without love, without admira- tion, without al n once the vow is taken. In marriage you have to livet with ih ro mistakes. "The pledge of unbroken affection is purity and truth. Take thought, dear young girl, if you cannot respect with- draw your pledge. To marry a man to reform him 1s absolute craziness. Don't marry a man to become this nurse, his mother, or his Sunday school teacher. For what a man will not do for his sweetheart he will never do for his wife. If you do mot trust him, knowing what you know now, what hope have you of trusting him after you are married? Trust Parents "I do not think of what were once termed 'old maids' as such, but there are some women who have had the courage not to marry an than a real man. I say, God bless _ old maids." Dr. Dougall schommly warned the voung people of his a noe to trust their parents. to consult them in their (Continued on page 11) lems, save conversion to God, to the pences to meet and other things to be thought |.

"To ask the Dominion to shoul- der part of the burden of a war pro- voked by any other part of the Em- pire is not in accordance with the the- ory of equal partnership. The Monroe Doctrine, that masterpiece of English diplomacy, conceived as it was by the British statesman, George Kent, to use the United States as a safeguard of British interests in both the Ameri- cas, will always remain the basis of the British policy on the American continent.

EVANGELINE'BOOTH MUCH LOVED WOMAN London, Oct. 24. Commander Evangeline Booth, daughter of the founder of the Salvation Army, and the head of the Army's organization in the United States, has arrived in London on her first visit to England | since 1920. Commander Booth has been in Pa- ris, where she was the only woman to address the convention of the Ame- rican Legion. She is the foremost wo- man orator in the United States, and when, a few months ago, an American magazine held a ballot for the most popular woman in America, Command- er. Booth headed the poll with a large majority. "Short skirts are better than long, which get bedraggled with - the rain, and bring on phcmonia. said Com- mander Evangeline "Bobbed hair I like, oh it does detract a little from womanly charm. I had my hair short once. It was years ago, before the fashion came in, and was for reasons of health, and I found it very mice to shake my head like a dog in the morning." Smoking for women is anathema to Commander Booth. "It is a perversion of all sacred in- fluences and sweet charm that belong to a woman's matchless influence. "It was that natural charm of the American Salvation Army women that won for them the affection of the 'doughboy' in the trenches." US.

C, Chief Justice Gives In- terssting Judgment in Recent Motor Accident A judgment of prime importance to pedestrians and motorists alike was handed down recently in the Suprem Court of British Columbia by Chief Justice Gordon Hunter, who defined the rights of each on the highwa: when dismissing an action by a pedes- trian to recover $25,000 damages from a motorist hy whom he was struck and mjured. His Lordship emphasized ths wont that a pedestrian is more mobile than a motor car driver, and also stat- ed that the idea that a pedestrian has a paramount right of way is misleading Both pedestrians and automobile driv rs are onder an equal duty to be carc iul to avoid collisions, he said: Comment on Life Today "In these days," his Lordship said in giving his judgment, "life upon th highways seems to constitute a seri of escapes--sometimes by the fractio: of a foot and by the fraction of second. Since the advent of the mo tor car there is no question that grea care is required both on the part of motorist and the foot passenger, and. in connection with that degree of car« I might point out a factor that is ap to be forgotten--that the mobility of the pedestrian is greater than the nio- bility of the motor car, just as the mo- bility of the motor car is greater than the mobility of the street car. In othe words, just as the auto has a relatiy. ly greater degree of control than th street car, so every normal person ha- a greater degree of control over th situation than the automobile, He can stop. or get in motion quicker than th machine, and therefore is bound 1t use this power in accordance with :! exigencies of the situation, and not run foolish or unnecessary risks. w endant Did "Had the case been that of a ycung child or an aged person, liable to get confused by the roar of the traffic, it might be a question as to whether a driver might not be bound to stop, if at all possible, so as to avoid a colli- sion, and not to take any chances, but I can not see that the defendant was bound to anticipate that a normal man of 25, with nothing to indicate that he was not in full possession of his senses, would make the false move he did. In doing this he returned on what was obviously the dangerous side of the highway, instead of getting away, as he quickly could have done, out of the zone of danger. BUSINESS WOMEN IN SEXLESS SPHERE Forget your sex when you enter the business world if you would be success- ful is the advice given to women by Fdith Mae Cummings, who in four vears rose from a telephone switch- hoard to be a millionaire real estate operator and ome of the big business women of America. "Sexlessncss in business is the key- note of a woman's success," said Miss Cummings. "A successful business ca- reer is built on brains apd nothing else.
