Since thé first crude craft was pro- pelled up the river current by steam power there have been a series of wonderful developments which rank prominently in the industrial .and cconomic annals of the Dominion. "The various stages of development of river craft as passenger and carge carriers stand out distinctively to those who have followed the history of Canadian navigation. As a cor- relative. development the industrial development of the territory serveo can be definitely traced. As the country grows and 'its com» merce expands the transportation facilities must of necessity keep pace. The tremendous value of our chief waterway as. it stands to-day, and without which Canada's indus: trial history would have heen dwarf: ed, suggests what the possession of the 8t,. Lawrence. and the Great Lakes will mean a few decades hence, Growing Up With the Dominion At the same time the development of traffic facilities must take place at a tremendous rate to keep up with the requirements, It is only a com- paratively few years ago that the business was done by the Richelieu & Ontario Navigation Company and a few lesser barge companies carry- ing grain ip small bottoms. Then came Canada Steamship Lines, with its acquisition of the principal faci- lities for river and lake transporta- tion, later developing into a trans- atlantic carrier. This company can no more stand still in its development than the cur- rent of the St. Lawrence can cease its progress to join the waters of the Atlantic. One sees in the present offering of bonds which the company 18 now making to the investment yublic one of the signs which are nerely incidental to the onward march of events as they affect the Jogminion as a whole, This cannot be regarded as a local .ncident, It is one of the broader measurings of our future capacity to carry on, The larger the funnel of ur country's productiveness grows 30 must/the spout extend its size to permit of the outflow to the markets of the world beyond the seas.

There can 'be hardly any (uestion of the value of this class of security. The service is so vital to 'he nation that it must be maintain- xd in first class efficiency and the security should rank in the same lass as high grade railway bonds, With the trade of the Dominion ontinually expanding, as the west arn country increases its production, 't will prove one of the most inter- sting incidents of our economic ex- sansion to watch the growth of the shipping facilities of the lakes and 3t.

Accused pleaded guilty and was given the minimum fine of $200 and costs, with an alternative of six months in Whitby jail. J. A. MeGibbon, appearing for Sel- Jock, pointed out that his client had been up against it all winter and had a wife and two small children. He asked the Court to be as lenient as possible. Col. J. F. Grierson, representing the Crown, stated that while they were not asking for a severe penal- ty, this illicit trafic must stop. His Worship, in imposing the minimum fine, ordered that the equipment and mash which had been seized, be con- fiscated, At the Villa Rose (Continued from page 3) die from the cheeks, the eyes stare wide in terror. "Celie! Celie!" Again the impatient voice rang up the stairs, as Helene pinned the girl's hat upon her fair read. Celie sprang up, took a quick step or two towards the door, and stopped in dismay. The swish of her long satin train must betray her. She caught up the dress and tried again. Even so, the rustle of it was heard. "I shall have to be very careful. You will help me, Helene?" 3 DAYS TO ENGEL'S "ANNIVERSARY SALE WATCH FOR IT OSHAWA, ONTARIO, TUESDAY, MAY 9, 1922 Mme.

"TI shall not want Celia. "Mma. Dauvray ordered me to give them to you," replied Helene, Celia took them hurriedly, picked up a white scarf of tulle, and ran down the stairs. Helene Vauquier listened at the door and heard the madame's voicé in feverish anger . "We have been waiting for you, Celie. You have been an age." Helene Vauquier laughed softly to herself, took out Celia's white frock from the wardrobe, turned off the lights, and followed her down to the hall. She placed the cloak just outside the door of the salon. Then she carefully turned out the lights in the hall and in the kitchen and went into the salon. The rest of the house was in darkness. This room was brightly lit; and -it had been made ready. CHAPTER XVIII, Helene Vauquier locked the door of the salon up the inside and placed the key upon the mantel-shelf, as she had always don whenever a seance had been held. The cur- tains had been loosened at the sides of the arched recess in front of the glass doors, ready to be drawn across, Inside the recess, against one of | ww the pillars which supported the arch, a high stool, without a back, taken from the hall, had been placed, and the back legs of the stool had been lashed with cord firmly to the pillar, s0 that it could not be moved.
