Sergio Delgado was a schemer as weoll as a dandy, and he always made a point of being as agreeâ€" able as possible to Raul Nunez, who had an enviable fortune and a governâ€" ment position which enabled him to augment it with the minimum of effort. Nunez was sleek and fat. He disliked exercise rearly as much as he disliked woaork and horesty. He was not too pleased with Delgado‘s ambition but was quite prepared to make use of it to serve his own ends. "There is not so much as a mention of it in thes> papers," he announced complacently. "Why it is I do not know.‘" He gave a gesture with a plump hand. "Sometimes there is a little story and all the people think it is news.

One of the newer books that will prove well worth reading, but which will probably not have such a great appeal to Canadians as it has for the American citizen, is "The First.| Rebel," by Noil H. Swanson. l "The First Rebel" is the story of a lost chapter of American history, :md1 deals with the first Pennsylvania xe-| bellion. Its hero, Colonel James Smith, is a nmesal life character, whose part in the history of the United States has been forgotten throughout=the passing years. Alot may be lost in a century and a half, but Neil Swanson revives this old story in a thrilling and interâ€" esting manner that will bring it to life again in the thoughts of the readâ€" ers of "The First Rebel." Neil Swanâ€" son tells of bloody battles, Indian massacres, and love, and throughout each phase of the tale he holds the interest of the reader. The characters are living people, the type that you may meet on th street during any day of the week.

Town Should Include Girl in Plans for Recreation. The Editor, Porcupine Advance, Timmins, Ont. Dear Sir:â€"I was intetr editorial, "Give the Girls and the letter to which it ter the publicity that yc the subject, I feel sure will be included to grea the town recreation prog that, because it has alyv experienc> that the men ing to help the boys are erous to the girls. Once grous to Utheé need 1s pointed out, the men are always anâ€" xious to do their best for the girls. But what is the best? The usual and natural thing to do is to take the reâ€" creation programme that has been found successful for the boys and simâ€" ply to duplicate it for the girls; grounds are reserved, teams organized, a coach employed, uniforms supplied, publicity givenâ€"and what happens? The whole thing falls flat. The men are puzzled, then they become discouraged, and they finally decide to omit the girls from future plans. Why does such a programme fall flat? It is because a girl‘s recreational mseds are different from her brother‘s. This is true, even though a girl often fails to realize it herself. The average, ordinary girl of teen age and over, ne>»ds and loves play, but shies away from stern competition. In this her instincts may be right, though no one can be dogmatic on the subject. We do not yet know the effect of strenuous competition on the average girl; we may have opinions, but we have no facts. Records are now being kept of the health of certain groups of girls, among them the famous Edmonton Grads basketball team and many Olympic athletss. It will be necessary to wait until a large number of these girls are grown women with families of their own before records can be Oof value. Even then it will be necessary to record other large groups of just ordinary girls, not picked athletes, beâ€" fore anyone can say with authority whether keen competition does harm or good to girls. Meanwhile, it seems a pity for well meaning citizens to put money, as they so often do, into a programme of doubtful benefit, when there is so much that girls need and like. The recreaâ€". tion that appeals to girls is individual and imaginative. Amateur dramatics, handcrafts, group singing well taught, are always popular. Most girls love sports if these are individual and inâ€" formal. I mean such things as tennis, badminton, swimming, skiing, archery, bowling, skating, dancing, golf. They are usually more keen to improve their own skill than to beat someone else. To my point, watch any club with an enthusiastic membership of women and girls, see it dwindle to a mere handful if all the emphasis is on tournament play, and watch it revive when, inâ€" stead of tournaments, an instructor is provided who will be interested in the average as well as the tournament player. Of course no municipality could cater to the individual needs and tastes of every girl in town, still less could they afforda to equip her for the more exâ€" pensive pastimes. The path of least resistance is to equip a town baseball team and let it go at that. Unfortuâ€" nately, it does not solve the problem. Thore are, however, definite things that can be done using only such money as is available. Girls and women do not care for stiff competition, but they do ‘enjoy trying tests. The type of proâ€" gramme that will usually succeed, therefore, is the type in which the money is put, not into uniform‘s, travel and prizes, but into the salary of inâ€" ~structors trained in girls‘ playground With bayonets bristling over the continent, Great Britain, in addition to its huge Rearmament Campaign, is spending $8.040,000 to improve conditions and pay of the army.

This problem is not new. It is at least as old as the Greeks. It appears that in Athsns the girls took to dancing and playing together in the public fields. Some Mr. or MTs. Grundy complained of it to Lycurgus, the lawgiver of Athens, saying that the girls were insufficiently clad and tnat it was improper and unnecessary for them to disport themselves in this manner. To which Lycurgus replied, "Let them dance and play, that they may have health, strength, virtue, and generosity of soul, and that they may learn to despise the opinions of ‘the vulgar throng." For the same reasons the girls of Timmins must play to achiev> their finest womanhood. Story About W ashout Somewhat Coloured Accordinz to word from North Bay the story appearing in some outside daily newspapers. in regard to danger last week to T. N. O. trains and pasâ€" sengers was somewhat overdrawn. The despatches suggested that the passenger train, "The Northland," namnpwly missâ€" ed crashing into a washout on the track some 23 miles north of North Bay on Thursday and that a disastrous wreck was only averted by a narrow margin. According to T. N. Oâ€" officials the despatches were slightly cozskeyed, "The Northland" not figuring in the episode at all. and the danger being a minor one. There was no great delay in the matter either, the repair job only taking half an hour or 5o.

There was no great delay in the matter ecither, the repair job only taking half an hour or The truth of the matter, according to the official version, is that a small washout occurred north of North Bay and was duly noted by the sectionm»n while on their regular rounds of inspection. â€" Railway officials were at once notified of the washout and the sectionmen in the meantime had proceeded in the work of making the necessary repairs. Train No. 47, leaving North Bay at 740 a.m,, Was the only train delayed by the washout. As utds t oc A *4 F only train delayed by the washout. As for "The Northland." known also as No. 49, it did not figure in the picture at all, having safely passed over the line hour‘s before the washout occurred. There was also mention in the desâ€" patches of the theory that had a train passed over the washout it would have crashed down a 300â€"foot embankment, and thus the danger of death and desâ€" truction would have been desperate inâ€" deed.

While admitting that a washout may prove very danâ€" gerous, officials say that the affair on Thursday morning was not of that type. It was only of minor proportions and the sectionmen had little difficulty in replazsing the ballast and getting the line in safe condition in short order. It may be added that at this time of year, and particularly this year, the ‘T.; °N. O. men are very closely on the watch for signs of washouts. and because of this fact, dangerous washouts are not liable to occur, or to be really dangerâ€" ous, if they do occur. At Kirkland Lake last week Magisâ€" trate Atkinson sentenced Fred Titorenâ€" ko, of Larder Lake, to three months with hard labour for assaulting Nick Budko. In impossink the sentence the. magistrate took occasion to issue * general warning regarding the seriousâ€" ness of attempting to intimidate witâ€" nesses. Nick Budko, of Larder Lake, told the court that he had been a witâ€" ness in a civil court case some time ago, appearing as witness for Titorenko. He was subpoenaed last week to be a witâ€" ness for the other side in an appeal hearing at Haileybury this week. On Monday of last week Budko said that Titorsnko had approached him in the matter. and argument had been folâ€" lowed by a beating up. Budko claimed that Titorenko struck him with "someâ€" thing that he took out of his pocketâ€"a bottle, I think." In any event, Budko, a little follow, was fairly well damaged, suffering discoloured eyes, as well as damage to the side of his face. Titorâ€" enko, a great big fellow, also claimed that he was hurt in the fracas, a docâ€" tor‘s certificate showing that he had three teeth knocked lcose. In court, Lake Man Given Term for Beating Witness however, he seem>»d none the worse for the episode, while the little fellow still bore marks of the battle. The defence argument was that the event was not in the nature of intimidation but raâ€" ther just the result of a common brawl.
