The accident occurred near Rigolet. An Eskimo boy and his two sisters were fishing at the edge of the ice when a large floe broke away and drifted out to sea with the helpless children. The mother saw the pre- dicament of her children just as the six-knot current caught the drifting floe and overturned it, The hardy children managed to keep their heads above water by clinging to the ice while their mother launched a leaky boat, the only one available, and, with a wooden tub to bail set out, to the rescuc. In the face of almost insurmount- able difficulties the heroic mother took the children from the icy water and started ashore, forced to bail constantly to keep the fragile craft afloat. Just as safety was almost assured the wooden tub, held by only one hoop at the bottom, fell to pieces in the hands of the bailer, and before they could reach shallow water the craft sank beneath the surface and all were drowned. THE HELPING HAND If when climbing up life's ladder You can reach a hand below, Just to help the other fellow Up another rung, you know; It may be that in the future, When you're growing weary, too, You'll be glad to find there's some- one Who will lend a helping hand to you! If while struggling in lite's battle You a kindly word should say To a comrade who's 10st courage 'Mid the fierceness of the fray, Mayhap, eometime when the foe- man Bear you back, and things look blue, He you helped may cheer you on- ward And bring victory unto you! If, when you shall hear men slen- der And with false words seek to And a With false word sseekrto You shut: up him who's absent, And his name and fame! In that day when you are sneered at ; A By the self-same, slimy crew, You'll rejoice to know there's some- one Who will boldly stand by you!

BANQUET A GREAT SUCCESS Number of Grand Lodge Of. ficers Present from Hamilton and Toronto The Tradesmen's Banquet held by the Canadian Order of Chosen Friends last evening was very successful. A number of the Grand Lodge Officers of Hamilton and Toronto, as well as members of neighboring councils were in at- tendance. The banquet hall was tastefully decorated with pink and white streamers, while the tables were decorated with pink and white blooms. The assembly was greeted with words of welcome by Chief Coun- cillor W. Luxton, who introduced Dr. C. W. Carr, medical examiner C.0.C.F., as chairman of the even- ing. The Grand Officers, Grand Chief Couneillor Friend J. L. Archer, Friend W. F. Montague, Grand Re- deemer Treasurer and Friend H. W. Madill, Field Sueprvisor, were then introduced. After the toast to the King, Friend Alex W. Bell proposed the toast to the Grand Council and Grand Officers, to which Grand Chief Councillor Friend J. L. Ar- cher responded. Friend W. F. Montague Grand Recorder Treasurer, who has served the order in this capacity for a number of years, was next called upon and introduced as not only the veteran officer of the ar- der but the dynamp that inspires all to greater efforts. Friend Mont: ague gave a masterful outline of tha work of the order and the multiplicity of the benefits derived therefrom, His remarks were pun- ctuated by interesting and humor- ous reminiseences, Friend H. W. Madill spoke on the organization and also gave in detail the plans for establishing a Hospital Cot Board and urged its adoption by the Oshawa Council. Friend Mrs. H. W. Madill, chief councillor of the Toronto Ladies' Degree Team, contributed greatly to the interest of the work in the discussion of degree work. Friend Alex Durie, uty,'spoke of the enviable position attained by the Oshawa Council and, predicted its promotion to Banner Council in the near future. The remarks of the speakers were interspersed, with musical numbers by Richard Fountain and W. Smith, community singing led by Mr. and Mrs. A. Henning, vocal selections by Mrs. L, Norwich and well rendered readings by Miss D. Burry. Friend Miss V. Black de- lighted her audience with her Scotch dances. Friend Mrs. W. Luxton, vice councillor, was presented with a box of flat ware as a token of ap- preciation of her much valued ser- vices in the Oshawa council. The singing of the National An- them brought to a close a most enjoyable evening, Fashion Notes New for races and other spee- tator sports affairs is the sports coat dress of tussan or other rough silk. It has tailoed collar and sleeves, just like a coat. A yoke In the back of a dress g a fashion whim of the moment n London. New York reports that the white unlined flannel coat is a fa- vorite this summer. Japanese prints, whose color is their strong point, look doubly well in red, blue or yellow frames that are lacquered in gold. Paris has set the seal of her approval on blue as the fashion- able early summer color, and smart women wear it in all shades-- light, dark, turquoise, navy, sky, china, forget-me-not, and any other shade you can name, A noted Fifth avenue, New York, shoe man is featuring reindeer, a velvety soft, exquisitely supple, suedelike leather in such fascinat- ing shades as jade, maize, garnet, ceil blue for afternoon shoes for summer frocks. Field Dep- | Household Hints Soiled white and silver broche shoes need not be discarded, as a coat of colored ink, applied with a soft camel-hair brush, will reno~ vate them wonderfully. The white accepts the color and throws the silver into relief. There is such a wide range of colored inks upon the market now that it is possible to match almost any dress. Cooked lobsters are easily dis- tinguished because they turn red upon cooking. To distinguish be- tween those which are dead be- fore they were cooked, not whether the tail is turned under. A live lobster instinctively eurls up up- on contact with hot water, Patent leather shoes should never be put near a fire, and should al- ways be kept on trees. They can, too, with advantage have a little French chalk dusted into them oe- casionally. Ant-infested cupboards . should be sprayed regularly with strogz tobacco water, which odour thede troublesome insects detest. Black- beetles can be got rid of by sprink- ling a mixture of borax and white sugar near their haunts. To whiten a kitchen table add a few drops of ammonia to the hot water used for scrubbing the table in the ordinary wa¥. This will prevent it turning -& 'yellowish colour. The reason why batters should be well beaten and left to stand some time before eggs are added is that' the grains of flour may have room and time to swell. Fine, lightweight toe rubbers in all colors and in snakeskin print- ed rubber, can be had now fitted into their own case about the size of a folded pocket handkerchief, To be sure of a Yorkshire pud- ding being light beat the batter till bubbles form on the top.

FRANGE FAVORS COLORED SHOES Frocks Must Be Matched By Shoes -- Gloves Also Are Gay Paris.--Colored shoes and gloves are the latest addition to an already colorful season here, In some of the shoe shops it is indeed difficult to get black shoes, "Everybody wishes shoes to match the frock," says the salesman, "And as so many dark blue frocks are worn for the street, so we sell a tremendous number of dark blue shoes." With the black frock--and that is now, as always, much in evidence in this city where black street frocks have perpetual smartness-- shoes of beige or gray, with match- ing stockings and gloves, are usu- ally chosen, though black patent leather is also worn. As for colored gloves, again blue is the color most often chosen, But there are also gloves of poppy red, and as one' of the hig drees- makers remarked when she was offering red gloves to go with a navy blue ensemble, "If one wore red gloves, perhaps they would not be sq often lost. They would be easier to find, harder to lose, than gloves of black, beige or gray." There is a strong vogue for yel- low, especially in sports clothes, And for wear with these yellow clothes there are gloves of yellow washable kid, in various matching shades. Not just chamois yellow, but a real range of yellow tones to choose from. put the pudding into a sharp oven, enamel after screens are ahsolute- ly clean and thoroughly dry. A HEAD OF OSHAWA LUMBER COMPANY (Continued from page 3) til it revolved for the last time just last year. : Wooden-Toothed Gears Staunch evidence of the tri- umph of nature's wood over man- fashioned metal, the wooden- toothed gears of 1852 are still meshing as truly as the machinery of the mill turns today. The old dam and flue, well and truly made, are still in use, confin- ing the water of the creek to work for the benefit of the community. Mr. Smith equipped his mill fully, as both a sawmill' and a grist mill ,and he traded into Oshawa and Port Perry in lumber, cord- wood, grain and flour, After putting the business of a mill at Ralgan well on fits feet, Mr. Smith accepted an offer of sale and moved to another com- munity, Duffin's Creek, where he built another mill on the same lines as the one in Raglan. In this mill he installed another wa- ter turbine, the second one to be imported into the whole of Can- ada. This mill, however, burned to the ground some years later, and the community eof Duffin's Creek. has. long since changed its name to Pickering. Stirring Times - Stirring times in Upper Cana- da before Confederation are re- lated by Mr. Gilbert's mother, Moses Smith's daughter, who still lives in Burlington. She can relate by the hour stories told by her father of the pioneer life in this section, of Ontario county which then gave a sawmill ample business 'as the land was cleared and timben, was required to build homes. Mrs. Gilbert, Sr., espec- ally delights to tell of the days of the uprisings when rebels, har- bored by many of the settlers who were secretly in sympathy with their cause, were hunted down by the King's soldiers. The ref- ugees were stowed away in any nook and corner of safety on the farm buildings, and many were the subterfuges necessary to cone vey food to them under the very eyes of the guard. Mr. Gilbert's father was a rail- road employee and station agent 'on the C.N.R., retiring in Bur- lington after 82 years of service. Mr. Gilbert turned, however, to the lumber business of his grand- father, hut his first venture, in Burlington, did not meet with just the success he expected. How- ever, he continued, profiting by the mistake of the first trial and after a further short period in the retail lumber business, and a banking experience that included four years as a branch manager in the Royal Bank of Canada, he went. to Montreal, where he be- came a member of the firm of Nicholson, Green, Gilbert, Limited. After six years with this com- pany, he dexded to again enter the retail end of the lumber trade and made a survey of several towns in Canada, The choice finally narrowed to Oshawa and Kitchener, Oshawa being chosen "for obvious reasons," sass Mr, Gilbert. Associated with him in the Osh- awa Lumber Company, Mr. Gilbert has D. C. Fowler, who also comes from Nicholson-Green-Gilbert, of Montreal. Working with them {is William Hodgson, who for the past 23, years has operated the Raglan mill established by Moses Smith, and whose son, Robert, owns the fox farm of that place and edits the Fox Farm Journal. $5,000 Warehouse Upon coming to Oshawa, Mr. Gil- bert' immediately began the con- struction of a $5,000 warehouse just south of the Toronto-Eastern tracks and behind 25 Ritson road north. The contract for this build- ing was let to T. B. Mothersill, of this city. It is metal sheathed and with an area of 69 by 100 feet, con- forming to the fire underwriters' specifications. This warehouse contains builders' supplies and fine qualities of lumber. In the yard the lumber is piled on three pile runs, each 36 by 150 feet. An interesting feature of the handling of lumber in this yard, is the employment of the gravity car- rier system. A long carrier, with freely moving rolls, slopes gradu- ally from the railway siding to the lumber piles, there being two of these carriers running between the three piles. Each board, being unlogded from the car, is placed on this carrier and travels leisure. ly down to its allotted place, where it is picked off, sorted as to width, and piled. The pile is so arranged that the heavier timber is piled at the extreme end of the carrier, their weight supplying momentum to carry themr, while the lignter boards, less affected by the pull of gravity, are picked off and piled nearer to the car. The yard is so lald out that thers is a 16-foot roadway on each side of every lumber plie. There are thus no dead-ends, and it is possible to have free access to any kind of lumber piled in the yard. These two arrangements, the graye ity unloading system and the free clearance in every part of the yard, save much time in pbandling the lumber, the former especially sav- ing much labor and the expense of additional men and breakage re- sulting from hand unloading of lumber from railway cars. For their office, at 25 Ritson road north, the company has con- verted a single-storey residence in- to a business office of very pleas- ing appearance. The whole has been panelled in rotary-cut British Columbia fir, which lends itself well to this use. The interior was finished in wood es far as pos- sible, but an Interesting ceiling problem was solved by the Pediar , Limited, of this city, who and installed a metal cell- fox the comnany, .
