The house is being moved further back from the street and is being placed on a cellar, L. Birmingham, of Fairport, is -:on- ducting the work, Mystery Man's London -- The mystery man of modern times unquestionably is 'Lawrénce of Arabia." A brilliant and gallant soldier he returns from one of the most spectacularly suc- cessful and sensational campaigns of modern times and is offered the greatest honors his country can be- stow. He spurns them all; nay, more, he dares to offer a threat to his king. His work in Arabia 'completed he enlists in the Air Force as a common private and, for the present at least, the world hears of him no more. What man- ner of man is this Lawrence? Of what stock does he come? What education did he have? Wag there anything in his youth to explain the mystery veiling his later exploits? Robert Graves, in an article, 'The making of a conqueror," which ap- peared recently in World's Work, succeeds in lifting at least an edge of the veil which hitherto has sur- rounded the personality of this most striking of men. Says Mr. Graves. 'His father, now dead, came from County Meath in Ireland, of Leicestershire stock settled in the time of Sir Walter Raleigh, He was a great sportsman. The mixed blood is chiefly from this side. His mother who two years ago went off unconcernedly to end her days with a mission in Central China-- but has recently been sent home much against her will, because of political troubles there--is a wo- man of decision and quiet power, with features like Lawrence's, She told me once: '"We could never be bothered with girls in our house"; and, very conveniently, she had five sons and no daugh- t ers. 'His childhood was spent in Scotland, the Isle of Man, Jersey, France and Hampshire. In France, he attended a Jesuit school, tho neither he nor his family were Ro- man Catholics. From Hampshire the family came to Oxford, where Lawrence went to the well-known Citv of Oxford School. 'He took no interest in school games because they were organized because they had rules, because they had results.

MANY LISTEN IN ON MARATHON SWIM (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, Aug. 31.--Any place in town where there was u radio proved a great attraction yes- terday and crowds gathered at these rendezvouusu to hear the lat- est repogts of the big swim. Ex- citement grew to fever heat when the race was in its final stages anu as soon as the winner crossed the line the crowds dispersed, and many actually ran to bear the news of the result to their homes. Many different prophesies were made as to the winner and it Is doubtful if very many of the town- folk picked ther ight one.

Assisted by a loud organ that pealed forth the latest song hits and with two per- sons on the top of the cab dressca as Darby and Joan, it soon attract- ed the attention of the young peo- ple who were not long in picking up the gifts of this enterprising firm. The only thing that spoiled the fun was the fact that the chil- dren had to run out on the street to get hese samples and the ap- proaching cars had to watch their steps in order to miss the kiddies whose taste for candy léd them out medinme-pri PISTON DISPLACEMENT G-M-R CYLINDER HEAD RUBBER ENGINE MOUNTING A revolutionary achievement in cooling 8.
