The orchestra in the "Light Cavalry Oy- erture" and the various solos also re- ceived a cordial reception. i The program commenced with Viking Song" by the entire chorus, which numbered over seventy-five, and the orchestra, with more than thirty-five pieces, The orchestra then rendered "Cavalier Son Domme," hy Percy Fletcher, "Mate of Mine" was a pretty. soprano solo given by.

Husbands are torn from their wives, and in Abyssinia are march- ed across the deserts, They are brought to the slave market and sold like cattle into serfdom, which only ends with the grave." Sir Austen Chamberlain and Lord Cecil, she sald, had appealed to the League of Nations to re- gard ships that carry slaves as pirates, but their plea failed when France, Italy, Portgal and some gether nations declined to support by "We want to rald these ships," explained the woman crusader, "and set the slaves free," WOMEN WHO LOVE Fortunately the world is sull full of women who would rather keep house than be engaged in any other profession or business which takes them out of their home; women who cheerfully cook and sew, darn socks and make a new hat when necessary, read a bit and play a bit and enjoy life, No praise can be too high for these women who love their mahogany furniture and polish it themselves, who like an attractively set table and are willing to give the time to ac- complish the result, This is not housckeeping-mindedness, nor an ad- mission that they are too dull to | do anything else. It is a desire to create attractive living condition and happiness for those they love, More strength to their arms! I hear so many complaints of the monotony and drudgery of homemak- ing that it is really a joy to meet a highly-intelligent woman who loves her job of homemaking and is not ashamed to say so, A little while ago I had the plcasure of meeting such a woman.

Her muscles, ac- customed to desk and table work, had not taken kindly to washing and cleaning. "Every beginning homemaker must determine her own housekeeping standards," I told her when she came "If you are going to make the best of your homemaking propensity, it is essential that your time be organ: ized on the basis of four factors, First, one should have a normal amount of mental stimulation, which means contact with books and peo- ple and some time must be set aside for this. Second, time must be gal- dyed for social activities, such as ea-parties or club meetings, depend- ing on your individual preference. Third, the necessary physical exer- cise and personal unkeep must be in cluded. Fourth, plenty of time must be allotted for housekeeping, for this is your newest and hardest job" Nog Is Rescued After 56 Hours On Ice Floe 'atroit, Mich., Jan. 22.--After least 66 hours and probabiy "e on an ice floe in Lake St. dr, the marooned white collie 'ch Grosse Pointe Park police ieavored to rescue for two days, 18 brought ashore Saturday, Des- @ the fact that its rescuers, em yoes of Grosse Pointe Park wil- lage, were compelled Lo chop it from the fice, it suffered only a The dog was reported dead after Frank Sandley, Grosse Pointe Park police electricians, who thought it be his own, attempted to suffering with a bullet from wered .22 calibre rifle, Finally reported that a shot had shatter- the ice at the point where the , and the collie was seen nd an ice hummock.

Our coral house in the South Seas sounds so idyllie that it might be the creation of some ultra-ro- mantic imagination, Such a mun. dane word as "housekeeping" probably mever enters one's mind in connection with it, : Yet keep house I did, while my husband saw to the plantation. The house {itself was the most practically conceived dwelling for a tropical climate. It was built by a man who had lived in the place for seven years, and this was his third, final, and perfect essay in house construction. The walls of broken coral, mix- ed with cement and lime, made for coolness in a climate whieh, although it is very equable--the teMBerature remains at about 83 degrees all the year .yound--is outstanding consideration, The steeply sloping roof was of natur- al colored shingle, and we paint. ed the outside walls white, the shutters a cool greeh, 'Wall Coverings Our two house servants were Chinese \ competent, and a na- tive TahWian acted as boot boy and scullery maid, The floors in several of the rooms were bare concrete, so that they could be cleaned easily with mops. Chinese straw mats of cheerful colors were all the carpets we required, Wood- fibre netting made by the natives was hung like tapestry, over the bare concrete walls, and thelr curious zig-zag designs in dark brown and white were cool and restful to the eye, Striking de- signs of pineapples, erabs, and other symbols made exotic splashes of color on the divan covers, Protective Sea Unfortunately these handicrafts are succumbing slowly to indus- trial manufacture in Tahiti; but our {island of Moorea, which fs mereifully protected from eciviliza- tion by 20 miles of rough sea, re- mains pretty much as it was 380 or 40 years aro.

This is an admirable attitude for them to as- sumefi and there is no reason why a consideration of tariff changes which might be in the interests of Canadians could not also he kept out of the realm of polities. The suggestion was made in the first place, not with the idea of intro- ducing politics, but rather from the standpoint of good business-- to consider something from a pure- ly business standpoint which might benefit the Canadian tobacco growing industry, Each of the speakers who sup- PAGE FIVE ported the suggestion did so, af- ter making it perfectly clear that they had no desire to make politi. cal capital out of a matter so seri. ous, affecting as it does thousands of tobacco growers, many of whom are facing ruin unless they can dispose of the crops now in their hands, - HER PLEASURES (The Argonaut) A teacher in a church school ind Portland, Oregon, arrested for beat- ing a twelve-year-old boy with a piece of heavy tubing until the lad could hardly stand, told the police she had never danced, never visited a theatre and never eaten meat, The young woman's pleasures are so few that it seems hard that the law must interfere every time she grabs a strap and sets out to enjoy herself, » is Men's Fleece Lined Shirts an Drawers.
