FINE MISSIONARY TALK TO BAPTIST Mrs, (Rev) A. A. Scott Mission- ary on furlough from India a ed the Emmanuel Baptist La Mission Circle yesterday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Rosser, 146 Simcoe St. N, and was heard with very great interest. Having gone to India in the year 1911 Mrs. Scott spoke out of fullness: of knowledge of the peo- ple in whom she is so deeply inter- ested; of their condition, customs, superstitions and religious beliefs, The Telegus are 3 very fine peo le and possessed of a very beauti- ul language with such refinement variety of inflection as to produce something akin 'o despair in those who try to acquire it. When deliver- ed from the superstition and miscon- ception which tends to perpetuate all that is bad in their lives these peo- ple may be expected to reach a very igh spiritual and intellectual de- velopment, they are very musical and have amazingly retentive memories both of which characteristic the mis- sionaries make use if in propagating a knowledge of the Gospel. The little children who come to the Mis- sion Schools are taught Christian Hymns which carry a maximum of gospel teaching; they are taught to repeat verses of scripture and told scripture stories all of which they re- tail in their homes and indeed whers ever they go, The whole life of the people is overlaid with superstitious observans ces most, if not all, of which are in- tended to ward off evil which the demons and spirits are ager to in- flict on them. Every one of the pretty chocolate coloured, satin skinned children wears some bright object such as beads bangles in ad- dition to a little loin-cloth; the bright object although an ornament is not intended merely as an ornament, its first use is to "take the eye of the demons" so that they will not notice the children and so may not think to do them the harm which it is in their demon natures to do. In almost every house the women make some bright, and very often, pretty spot or design, something which the demons like to look at and which will so engage at- tention that the inmates may be overlooked and ill luck or calamity averted, Streams are believed to be specially attractive to evil spirits who take delight in poisoning or spoiling the water; to protect the streams strings with writing on attached pa- pers are stretched across the waters to keep the spirits spelling and so preserve the waters, The mass of the people are in a positively desperate condition of poy- erty, Families are usually very large and so the children at a very early age have to find some kind of work to do, Very little children mind cattle while grazing getting a very small portion of rice or it may be some water in which rice has been boiled to drink; larger children carry water or fuel or make themselves useful in other ways getting some- thing towards allaying the pangs of the hunger which is well nigh con- stant and universal, This condition prevents the holding of school during the day in many places and so the children are gathered for an hour very early in the morning for lessons, Even this small contribution of edu- cation' makes a great difference to those who get it and as years pass the results of it are learly seen, The Mission Schools are regarded by the missionaries as, perhaps, the most fruitful agency in use; it being distinctly understood that the Bible is the chief text book and that its used every day. On the Akidu field where Mr, and Mrs. Scott work every teacher in the school is a chris- tian; and every school a centre of Gospel teaching and influence. A recent development in the work is the Evangelistic Schools in which Christians are given lessons in win- ning others to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, The teacher goes from place to place to hold schools once a month or oftener if possible, The students are taught suitable texts of scripture and how to tell the way of salvation to others and in this way many are being trained to spread the Know- ledge of the way of Life. Mrs. Scott was heard with very great interest and cordially thank- ed by all present, CANADA'S AIR LINES GROW Washington, Sept. 11--Air service between Nelson, Spokane and Van- couver will be inaugurated by the Nelson Spokane: Vancouter Airways, Consul Harold 8, Tewell of Vancou- ver today reported to the Depart- ment of Commerce. Four planes will be used, those for the route between Vancouver and Nelson, B.C, being seaplanes. Schedules will be so ar- ranged that passengers may be rout- ed from inland points in California. YBEIN' A MOTHER" But there's love in bein' a mother, Pain of body, mind and heart; Yes, such a love as no other, If you're playin' well your part, But there's love in bein' a mother, Love that reckons not the gain; Yes, such a love as no other, And it glorifies the pain. --Agnes O'Brien. THE OSHAWA DAILY.

LIFEBUOY HEALTH SOAP Purifies and Protects LEVER BROTHERS LIMITED TORONTO "GREASED LIGHTNING" COMING TO THE NEW MARTIN ON THURSDAY A good, old-fashioned, rip-snorting Western film play is promised at the New Martin Theatre next Thursday when "Greased Lightning," a Univer- sal feature starring Ted Wells, will be shown, It will live up to its title according to advance reports, The story deals with a young ranch foreman who falls ih love with a city girl who has just inherited the ranch where he works. The girl is annoyed by the attentions of community lawyer, who in secret is the master-mind of a band of out- laws responsible for an epidemic of cattle thefts, While the young foreman is up in the hills with his cow-hands looking for cattle stolen from the girl's ranch the crooked lawyer urges the girl to marry him, He becomes nasty when she refuses. When she flees to the hills to seck the protection of her ranch-boys, the lawyer has his out- laws overtake and capture her and drag her to his hiding-place in the mountains, The climax comes when the young foreman gets wind of this and gocs single-handed to rescue her. The sit- uation makes for fast action, hard- riding and a hand-to-hand fight that is said to be breath-taking. Whether or not the foreman overpowers the outlaws and carries the girl to safety is @ question that can be solved only by seeing the picture, It is a good guess to assume that he gets a life- time job on the ranch before the fin- al fade-out. Wells, of course, plays the role of the ranch. foreman, He is a wizard in the saddle and an athlete of con- siderable collegiate reputation. Those who have not followed his brilliant career on the screen may remember him as All-Southern hali-back from Sewanee several years ago. Pretty Betty Caldwell plays the role of the girl. Others in the cast are Myrtis Crinley, George Dunning, Lon Poff, Victor Allen and Walter Schumway, Ray Taylor directed the production, Lamb chops seryed hot will be on the menu when the Olympians get home.--Hamilton Herald, New Fall F at $2.98 HERE 18 AN OFFERING THAT COMES BUT ONCE A BEASON New fall felts trimmed with plush, velyet, or ribbon in a range of styles that be- speaks the smartest modes of autumn, Trim little tail- ored models, chic hats with upturned brims and new 'tam effects are all here at If their usual price. hé colors too, are the sea- son's favorites, browns be- ing most In evidence and supplemented by sands, blues, navy, rose-belge and black. $2.98 Specially price at CHILDREN'S HATS $1.98 These hats are of excellent the }/SCHOOL CLUB HAS RESUNED WORK Centre Public School Organ- ization Starts Fall Activities J The first monthly meeting of the Centre Home and School Club for the new season was held Mon- day hight in the auditorium of the school. In spite of the rain there was a large attendance, The club met to discuss the pos- sibilities of producing a play for next month under the able direc. tion of Mr. Robinson, formerly of the Little Theatre Upstairs, Toron- to, and now teacher of the auxili- ary class of Centre Street School, The meeting was unanimously in favor of the proposition, Those who saw Mr. Robinson's "Pageant of the Empire" last May will look forward to his latest offering. Mr. Robinson announced that he would produce "Dotheboy's Hall" from Nicholas Nickelby" by Charles Dickens, It was decided to purchase a new rugby ball for the boys. The Aux- illary class were asked to make a cupboard in which the ladies may keep their dishes, Tea was served at the close of the meeting, RAIN, LIGHTNING AND ICE UNITE TO GIVE AIRMEN THRILL Sydney, New South Wales, Sept. 11.-The transpacific monoplane Southern Cross had a hazardous journey to Christchurch, New Zea- land, from Sydney, rain, lightning and ice contributing to the worst flight the aviators have experienced, The flashes of lightning and severe storm resulted in terrifying bumps, The lightning was so close and strong that it showed circles of fire cover. ing the diameter of each of the three propellers, Ice formed on the wind- shield and under-carriage, and chok- ed the air speed indicator, putting it out of commission. Lightning ren- dered the radio useless. The plane travelled 1,660 miles. The flying time was 14 hours, 25 minu- tes. The fliers were given an enthusias- tic reception at Christchurch. The New Zealand Government made a gift of §10,000. The crew consisted of Captains Charles Kingsford-Smith and Charles T. P. Ulm, of the flight from California to Australia, wireless operator McWilliam and Navigator Litchfield, "THE CANYON OF ADVENTURE" AT THE REGENT THURSDAY Practice makes perfect and for that very reason Ken Maynard, star of "The Canyon of Adventure," the Western feature produced by Char- les R. Rogers for First National Pic- tures, which comes to the Regent Theatre on Thursday spends long Lours every day practising stunts to perform hefore the camera, Ken, as eyeryohe knows, began his career stunt riding in a circus, He went through engineering school to please his parents, but became a trick rider by choice and knows through long years of experience that a trick has to be perfect hefore it can he shown to the audience. Many of Ken's stunts are breath-taking not only in appearance but in actuality. They call out all the stamina and nerve a man can muster, but when he makes it a business he has to be doubly sure of what he is doing, For that reason Charles R. Rogers, the producer of Ken's pictures has a fully equipped gymnasium for his star to keep in perfect physical condition, as well as a stable and practice field for him to perfect and improvise new stunts, Not far from the First National studios there is a large tract of ground given over specially to May- nard and Tarzan. First Ken tries out the stunt and then teaches it to Tar- zap, and then the two of them prac- tise it until perfected. Several of these new stunts are seen in "The Canyon of Adventure" It is cram- med with action and thrills and Ken supplies the majority of them. Others in the cast include Virginia Browne Faire, Eric Mayne, Theo. Lorch and Bill Franey. Albert Rog- cll directed and Harry J.
