It was that Palestine -- the Zion of the Jews and their old. homeland---should once more be peopled by Jews that. a Jew- ish nation should arise as a cen- tre for Jewish culture, life and arts. It seemed only a dream until Dr. Chaim Weizmann made ft something of a reality. Dr. Weiz- mann, as a scientist, was of in- estimable value to Great Britain and the Allies, He was living in England at the time of the war. The Allies needed. certain ingred- ients for high explosives, which it was difficult for them to get. Weiz- mann, the scientific chemist, found the way. The British Government wanted 'to honor and reward him. He asked that Britain reward, not himself, but his race, by tak- ing up the cause of Palestine as a homeland for the Jews, The.result was the famous Balfour proclam- ation which recognized this claim when Egnland took over the Pal- estine mandate, British Zionists Co-aperate Ever since, Britain has been act- ing more or less in accord with the Zionist organization. The lat- ter was recognized for the pur- pose of advising and co-operating with the British administration of |I Palestine in all social, economic and financial matters affecting the Jewish population there, The old Zionist organization was heavily weighted with Jews trom Eastern Europe. The more wealthy and powerful Jews of Am- erica and Europe did not take much stock in a separate Jewish state. It was the Jews of the old Russian empire who mainly dream- ed of going to Palestine to live and who contributed most of the money. But in the past few years all this has changed. The Jews of eastern Burope are poorer than they have ever been, They have needed the charitable help of their co-religion- ists, instead of being able to faise money for outside purposes, And all the time American Jews have been taking a larger part in Jew- ish world charities, It is they who raised and spent over $100,000,000 in relief work all over Europe and Asia, , But they were largely non-Zion- ists. Dr. Weizmann wanted to get them interested in his labors, and at Zurich he achieved his purpose. A new organization was voted, to be known as "The Jewish Agency." Its ruling body of 214 members a R---------- Bright Eyes Sparkling, full of pep and vigor, mirrors of the inter- for reflecting a. beautifully clean body inside as well as outside, he a No wonder she is the life of the party, always 'play whoopee, but 'she' has learned that an active body and 'mind 'do not go hand in hand with sluggish bow- els, ORDERLIES One at night'-- next day bright--hag always been' her motto, You too, can experi- ence this same satisfaction by using this mild, pleasant laxa'ive Chew it up and swallow with "a drink of water, Mothers find it most delightful for children, Try a 2b6c, box to-d~y.

Dr. Weizmann is president of the new body, but Felix Warburg, the well-known New York banker, is chairman of the administrative committee, Several other promin- ent and wealthy Americans are connected, with the Couneil, Louis Lipsky, president of the Zionist organization of America, declared upon his, return: to New York that the Arab uprising in Palestine was due more to' hostil- ity against Britain than ill-feel- ing against the Jews, "The Arabs never had any pre- tenfons to Palestine," Lipsky said, "It is the mandatory Government, not the Jewish people, against which the Arabs really are man- oeuvering," VILLAGE SMITH IS ACTIVE, AGED 74 Takes One Meal Daily Walks Five Miles an Hour Great Sampford (Essex).--A typi- cal village blacksmith as portrayed in the famous poem, can be seen in the ancient village of Great Sampford, in the heart of rural Essex.' Robert Goldstone, known for miles around as "Old Bob" can be seen [fe hard at work in his blacksmith's shop | any day of the week, in spite of his seventy-four years, He wears a long white beard above hig leather apron, he is erect and more active than many a youngr man, and his brawny arms swing to the familiar music of the anvil, Old Bob is the fourth generation of his family, to occupy the position of village smith of Great Sampford. "I had my first blacksmith's apron when I was seven, and used to work in my father's shop," said "Old Bob," "so I have completed sixty-seven year at the anvil, All-Night Work "I have worked right through the |66e night and day to get a job done, and have frequently started at two o'- clock in the morning. Nothing could tire me until 7 was sixty years of age, I was then able to walk six miles an hour, I can now, in my seventy-fifth year, walk five miles an hour." The secret of his great activity is apparently in not cating too much, He takes only one meal a day. A few weeks ago he walked thirty-seven miles in a day, and all he ate on-the journey was half a pound of raisins, "Old Bob" takes an active part in the work of the village church, and in this he has set up another record. He has just completed fifty-two years as churchwarden, and to celebrate the event he has been presented with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, He has also filled many other offices in the church, having read the lessons for twenty years, blown the organ, rung the bells, trimmed the lamps, and been up at three o'clock on a Sunday morning to light the fire for the church. The work is all honorary. "I re- fuse to be paid," he said. "It is an honor to be allowed to do anything for my church." "Old Bob" hates modern things. "T have no telephone, nor have I my name painted up," he said, "People who want the blacksmith know they can find 'Old Bob' at the smithy." ne AY bs A The layout shows cight mission. aries of the Canadian Baptist church, who are leaving Canada to take up duties in - foreign lands.

The alleged of- fenders shipped 301 calves to the Union Stock Yards in Toronto, Fifty-one were dead on arrival. "If the offenders. are not re- quired to come personally the casc assumes' in their eyes a less ser- ious aspect. With whatever profit is salvaged from the remaining animals the owners might meet any financial loss that ensued from hte case or the possible penalty and still be in pocket," Mr. Wil- son explained. It will take prob- ably 10 days for the summonses to he served and the drovers brought to Toronto. In discussing shipping problems wi the fact that over 90 per cent. of the aui- mals come through in good, healthy condition, and that the Humane Soclety has no trouble with the old reliable shippers. To cope with the remaining shippers who might not be clagsed as. 'reli able" he would offer tvo sugges- QUALITY : (8) Rev. H. 8. Hillyer, re ' - I "Phone '3060 - MALLETT'S she i, Mri MA El Ls iB UE tions; first the increase of humane education among young people, and secondly, rigid prosecution of the offenders, In the latter regard he stressed the point of having such cases come up in Toronto courts, since the city is the clear- ing centre of live stock trade, rather than at the point of ship- ping. In the courts here there would be less possibility of the case being affected by any personal element, he believed. The case in question :brings to the fore, Mr, Wilson believes, the necessity of the railways putting a clause in their contracts with shippers demanding that all cattle shipped be wholly healthy to the best knowledge of the shippers. While both railways special live-stock cars with adjust- able partitions, the use of these is not general enough to preclude abuse, in his opinion.
