Viilcon MacDonald Gives, Rea"ings of H's Own Works An hour of delightful enter- tainment was a'forded the teach. ers and students of Bishop Beth- nre Colle~e and a few of their friends yesterday afternoon when Wilson MacDonald, the noted "anadian poet read a number of his poems, Mr. MacDonald has many beautiful thourhts in his noetry and his word pictures are cleverly painted. stories of how he came to write certain of his works, what incidents or what people prompted him to compose verses were very interesting to his appreciative audience. The story and the little poem about Dee MacKay, a little girl with whom he became acquainted at Vancouver, and to whom he has dedicated the poem '"Whist-a- Wee", was very popular with the students. "'"Two Old Grannies' that is written in Irish. dialect and two negro dialect poems, ex- amples of his lighter poetry were delightful little human interest studies. Of his more serious and thoughtful works. Mr. MacDon- ald read "The Wind in the Gables", "I Will Go Down to "feet the Dawn", and "I Love Old Things". The last of these he re- cited very beautifully, at the end ~hanting the works of his poem to the air of an ancient Dorian h~ant, Mr. MacDonald's audience had le opportunity of meeting him afterwards when cake anq coffee were served in the library of the school. Mr, Macdonald responded to the request of some of the students, who knew his reputa- tion of being a good ghost story 'eller, The poet autographed the copies of his poems that many of the students took the oppor- tunity. of purchasing yesterday afternoon, Herrings go about the ses wn shawls, --University Correspond- ent, YOU may say Tuck more, but _ the strongest > WL BURRS BEDTINE Tok! The time may come for me or you To do the thing we fear to do. ~Peter Rabbit. Tlere was no doubt in Peter Rabbit's mind that Jimmy and Mrs, Jimmy Skunk were under the back porch of Farmer Brown's house, As he sat in the moonlight staring at the hole under the porch into which Jimmy's tracks led, he knew that he couldn't be mistaken, There were those telltale footprints in the snow. These were proof enough that Jim- my had gone in there, for there were no fresh ones coming out. This being so, of course, he must be there now. As if to make this doubly sure he had heard Jimmy's sleepy, cross voice under there, and another sleepy cross voice which could belong to no one but Mrs, Jimmy, "I wonder if they have been s ending the winter together, or if one of them 1s just paying the other a visit," muttered Peter. "I won- der if they have been here all the time. No one but. Jimmy Skunk or Mré Jimmy would even dream of daring to make their home in such a place. I wonder what Black P ssy thinks of it, and if she dares to oo in there now. She used to go in there a lot. I wonder it they have dug a home down in the round. I--I--I wish 'I dare peek But Peter didn't dare peek in. No, sir, he didn't. He had a whole- some respect for Jimmy Skunk and his little scent gun, "Jimmy and 1 are good friends," thought Peter, "and we never have had any trouble I don't want any trovhle now. He might not care, and then again he might. He might think | was nok ing my nose into hig affairs, and use that little gun of his. That would be dreadful."

Burgess Was Peter frightened? He was so frightened that it seemed to him his heart stopped beating, course, it didn't, but it seemed so to Peter. lad he been carved from stone Peter could not have been more still than he was, Not so much as a single hair moved. Per- haps Reddy would go over to the Cld Orchard without seeing him. Reddy was looking that way, Once he seemed to look straight at Peter, and poor Peter had all he could do to remain still. ¢ Reddy turned the corner of the barn and trotted a few steps to- ward the Old Orchard. Suddemy he changed his mind, turned and trotted straight toward Peter. It was then that Peter remembered the hole under the porch. Had not Jimmy Skunk and Mrs. Jimmy been in there he would have laughed at Reddy Fox But they were in there. Fhey might not like it if he should come in, and if they didn't-- Peter shrugged at the thought of what might happen. Perhaps Reddy would turn aside, Reddy didn't turn aside. He knew about that hole under the porch and often visited it to find out who might have been using it. It whs or this purpose that he was head- ing for it now. Peter waited as long as he dared, Then he dived for that hole and into it. He had no choice; there was nothing else he could do. (Copyright, 1932, T.

CANAPIAN NUNS ARE SAFE HOWE Hzd Narrow Escape From Band'ts Wh'le in China Pemb.oke, Ont, -- In despatches irom China sume months ago it was said that two nuns had been cap- tured by bandits, 'These two Cana- dian sisters of the chwch are now safely back in Cana a, having ar- rived by the ""Empiess of Japan" recently, 'Lhey were never really captured," bug they had a narrow cscape.

Grade surter w. 21€ Or ONLY WOMAN ON THE BENCH Toronto's Magistrate, Dr. Margaret Patterson, in Unique Position Toronto, Ont.--~Gown of Cana- da's only woman magistrate is worn by Dr. Margaret Patlerson of Toronto, With the recent retire ment frm the bench of Mrs, Alice J Jamieson, for 15 years magis trate sof women's police court at Calgary and Mrs, Emily Murphy ot Edmonton, Magistrate Patter- son ig left alone. Fearlesg in her work and al- way ready to withstand criticism, Magistrate Patterson has effected numerous reforms in soclal serv- ice. In India and in Canada she has been to the forefront in geek- ing reforms to help women crim- inals, to correct the misdemea- nors of young women by remon- stration rather than by punish- ment and to afford protection to her gex by amendments to the criminal code in relation to of- fenses against women. Her work in police Toronto at first met eriticism Even her appointment in 1921 wag subject to a bitter controver- v. Named to the post by Attor- eneral W. E, Raney (now Mr. Justice Raney) at a salary of $3,600 annually, the appointment was opposed by the city ccuncil- by whom her salary is paid. Dr. Patterson had had no legal train- ing, it was argued, and her galary was more than that paid to many members of the bench. The princi- ple of women's eligibiiity to sit on the bench was contested, Dr. Patterson came through, With assumption of office, how- ever, her duties: did not run smoothly and she was the centre of many disputes, But at all times the welfare of those who came before her court--patients as she is wont to. call them-- was close to her heart. "If possible," she said once, "I want to have a quiet room where I can take évery case, and, before forming any opinion, inquire into 111 the circumstances that led to 'he misdemeanor, the home life, the state of physical health, for without thorough investigation, we can never do our best for pati- ents," Many cases, she thought, could he "settled out of court, without publicity and punishment, but I believe when punishment ig given it should be stiff." She disapprov- ed of sentences being imposed in- discriminately----without thorough Investigation of all circumstances surrounding the case. Margaret Norris Patterson was born at South Perth, Ont., in 1877 and received her elementary education at Milton, Ont, After two years at University of Toron- to she went to Northwestern Uni- versity at Chicago where she graduated In medicine in 1899-- a time when a medical career was an adventurous undertaking for a woman. Following post-graduate work in Europe she wert to India to become superintendent of Al- lahabad Women's Hospital. Her work in India was charac- terized by the zeal which has marked her whole career. Shortly after her arrival bubonic plague ravished the United Provinces: In- dia's resources were marshalled to combat the plague and Dr, Pat- terson's part th this work was recognized by King Edward when at his coronation durbar in 1900 he awarded her the Kalsar-I-Hind medal for distinguished service: She was Lord Kitchener's ad- viser in dealing with the problem of ridding the army of camp- followers--work requiring both medical and judicial ability of a high order. She wag professor of chstetries at Ludhiana Women's Medical College. Her text book on vhysiology and hygiene was used in many Indian Schools, She was recognized as an expert medical witness in women's cases in the high court of Allahabad. While in India she met and, married John Patterson, then pro- fessor of physics at Allahabad University. Two sons were born of the marriage, one of them suc- cumbing to effects of India's cli- mate. From the time of her return to Canada about 20 years ago until her appointment as magistrate, Dr. Patterson devoted herself to various forms of soclal service. During Lhe influenza epidemic in Toronto, while her husband was overseas, she lectured twice daily to army volunteer nurses, train- ing over 2,000 nurses, and at the sale time did practical work her- self. Dr. Patterson has always been militant against trends in wo- man's dress. Even so far back as the Great War she drew attention to what she termed {indecencies in the fashions of the day and caused much amusement by de- claring that if a man were to walk two blocks exposing as much of the body as a woman of that day did he would be arrested. Wo- man's dress, she claimed, should "help man, not tempt him," HATER STRAF3 THE FASHION New Craze Strikes Women for Costumes on Palm Beach Palm Beach, Fla.

QUEREC WOMEN STILL WORKING Will Not Relinquizh Efforts to Obtain Franchise | Montreal, Que. -- The Gazette rays editorially: "Hope deferred by the vote in the Quebec Legislative Assembly pas not made faint the heart that is set upon securing the pro- vincial franchise for women, On | the contrary, hope has become more robust as the result of pro- ceedings in the Assembly, if we are to believe Dr. Anatole Plante, | the sponsor of the vanquished | guffrage bill. His counsel to ed- | ucate the women, particularly in the rural districts of the province, for the part in local political life thet many desire to play is the counsel of wisdom. It is import- ant that all of them should form an opinion on one side or the cther. If and when the women muke it plain to the legislators that those who want the vote are in the majority, an ancient preju- dice will be broken down and no man will dare be hostile to the cause of feminine franchise. "Neither the resolutions of censure upon the Government that have been suggested nor the vioient protests of the kind fa- vored in certain circles would ad- vance the women's cause, Rath- er, such manifestations would be calculated to impede {its pro- gress." FERMENTATION OF CANADIAN HONEYS (Experimental Farms Note) The honey industry of Canada hae suffered considerably through fermentation of the honey in storage, This fermentation is now recognized to be due to yeasts capable of developing in highly concentrated sugar solu- tions. In an effort to discover any relation which might exist between the chemical analysis of honey and its tendency to fer- ment, an examination of some 200 samples of honey collected from all over the Dominion was carried on by the Divisions of Apiculture, Bacteriology and Chemistry of the Dominion Ex- perimental Farms. Chemically, with the exception of a few extreme cases, the an- alysis of Canadian honeys lies well within the recognized stand- ards. Differences are noted ac- cording to flora' origin and to geographical distribution. Buck- wheat honey has a higher mois- turo nitrogen, titrateable acidity and ash and a lower sucrose con tept than clover honey. Accord- ing to geographical distribution Ontario and Quebec and the Hast- ern provinces show the highest moieture and nitrogen content, A high ash content occurs in Brit- {sh Columbia and in the Eastern Provinces and a high sucrose con- tent in honeys from British Co- tumbia. For this coinparison, the results have been taken from lLoneys of one foral origin, viz, clover, Correlating the chemical au- alysis of honeva which remained sound fun to Maat aw 10 1080) with that of those which mented (pr.ur Ww October. 1, 1930) it was found that as caus- ative agents of fermentation, oth- er factors being equal, moisture is very important and nitrogen ways having a quick reply, "Do keep aluminium saucep pans ?® inquired the timid-looking woman customer . ¢c saw his chance.
