The Warden Installed With due ceremony the new warden was gowned in the black" robes of office, while the famous 3- cornered hat was placed upon his head.

To the new members of coun- cil he extended a warm welcome and also voiced satisfaction upon seeing so many former members again in council. He urged toler- ance and co-operation in the delib- erations of the council. Large Audience Present The session yesterday was open. ed with religious exercises, Rev, T.

DISCOVERED Skeletons Unearthed By Ex- pedition Resemble Mod- ern European Race Chicago, Ill, Jan. 23.--Amer- ica's hodge-podge of races may in- clude descendants of a hitherto undiscovered ancient people who dominated northern Africa for thousands of years. This is the conclusion of Pro- fessor I"ay Cooper Cole, chairman of the University of Chicago's de- partment of anthropology, who has examined four skeletons unearth- ed just north of the Sahara desert. One of them was called the most complete human framework of an ancient human ever discovered. Features of these skeletons, he found, resemble modern Europeans more than any other race, ancient or modern, Dr. Cole estimated that the history of this ancestral people dates back about 25,000 years, In Algeria the bones were found buried beneath huge mounds of snail shells. An expedition spon- sored by Beloit College and Dr. F. G. Logan, vice president of the Chicago Art Institute, was in its third year of work when the dis- covery was made. Dr, Cole explained the race's relation to modern Europeans and Americans by this theory that these "mound people" migrated from Africa into Europe about 12,000 years ago. Land bridges then existed at Gibraltar and Sicily. They probably destroyed the Cro-Magnon type of man then liv- ing in Europe, he said, and thus became ancestors of southern Europeans of today. The striking likeness of the skeletons' features to physiologi- cal traits of Europeans led Profes- sor Cole to believe that thousands of Americans, especially emigrants from the Balkans, now may point | to Africa's "mound men" as an- cestors. ! 12,285,000 INSULIN UNITS DISTRIBUTED BY PROVINCE Toronto, Jan. 23.--Toxoids, anti- toxin and insulin costing $149,592.- 50 were distributed during the year ending October 31, 1928, by the Provincial Health Department, ac- cording to a report issued yester- day. It was stated that 12,235,- 900 units of insulin were given out at a cost of $48,943.60. It cost $102,432.10 to provide the bi- ological products used to combat diphtheria, scarlet fever, tetanus, smallpox and rabies. Acids In Stomach Cause Indigestion Create Sourmess, Gas and Pain 'How to Treat Medical authorities state that mearly mine- tenths of the cases of stomach trouble, in- tion, sourness, burning, gas, bloating, nausea, etc., are due to an excess of hydro- chloric acid in the stomach. The delicate stomach lining is irritated, digestion is de- layed and food sours, causing the disagree- able symptoms which cvery stomach suffer. er knows so well.

Iating to Nature-Study are welcome, JOTTINGS FROM MY NOTE-BOOK Dec, 20.--The famous scientist, Alfred Russell Wallace, was once asked what was the most dangers ous beast he had encountered in the course of his tropical travels, Though he had roamed through the haunts of the jaguar, the pecs cary, and the giant anaconda, he declared that he was most afraid of the wild bee. Kipling has a bee, when it is numbered by countless millions, which gives a graphic picture of what that dan- ger can mean, There are species of ants, both in Africa and South America, before the march of which nothing can live, The fierce est. and strongest and most agile beasts must give way before them, Though many thousands of deaths are attributed to snake- bites in India every year, the mors. tality is slight compared with the toll taken of human life by malar- fal mosquitoes in various parts of the world. Had the neighborhood of the Panama Canal been infested with lions and tigers, the work would have gone on merrily, but the awful mortality caused by these tiny insects defeated its first buflders. South Africa has suf- fered from locusts a thousand times more than it ever suffered by reason of the wild beasts within its borders. certain - * * Dec. 22.--While coming home at noon I saw a flicker in the orch- ard.

Editor, Oshawa Daily Times,-- Dear Sir,--May I, through the medium of your paper, express my views and opinions at the attempt made by a Christian sect, in this country, to reconcile Church and Synagogue. "Blessed are the peace-makers, for they shall be called the children of God." So said the "Prince of Peace." Ac- cording to the testimony of the Gospels, it was the Jews who de- sired the death of Christ and the Gentiles who carried out that wish. In those hours of torture, preceding death, he prayed for both: "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do." To those who would temporize and make select, let me refer them to Chapter 13 of St. Luke's Gospel, verses 2-3-4-5. The hand of friend- ship, extended by the Christian to the Jew, is in the writer's opinion, the joining of Old and New 'resta- ments in a living bond. "No man cometh to the Father, but by Me, no one cometh unto Me except the Father briog him." This is a clear statement, proving that all must be brought by way of the old dis- pensation, into the .truth of the new. It is the power of the mer- but all nations, throughout the earth. "I will ELLEN BRYCE. The more style there is to an story about the terror of the wild | ly To Be Subject of a Heavy Attack Toronto, Jan. 23,~--With the Conservative Government of Hon. G. Howard Ferguson presenting a program of important legislation and the Liberal Opposition laying plans for a vigorous offensive the 1929 session of the Ontario Legis- lature promises to be one of the most interesting in recent years. The House opens Jan. 30. The Government has now com-~ pleted its survey of the province, instituted following last session to obtain data regarding indigent ag- ed people, and is now prepared to introduce an old age pensions scheme, The result of the survey has not yet been announced but will probably be presented to the House. The survey was to deter- mine whether the old age pensions scheme of the Dominion, which re- quires co-operation of the prov- ince, was suitable to Ontario, At the last session of the Legis- lature the Government declined to consider amendments to the Liquor Control Act on the ground the measure should be given a thorough trial, It has now been in force more than a year and a half, and it the Government has noted any deficiencies it is probable legisla- tion will be introduced to correct them, Liberal Plans . While W, E. N, Sinelair, Liberal leader, has not placed his plans be- fore the public, the fact he has had a number of conferences with his followers in the House leads po- litical observers to predict the next few weeks will see a good deal of activity in the Liberal camp. The Government's hydro administration is expected to be one centre of Op- position attack. A statement f{s- sued after a recent Liberal caucus said: "The agricultural interests of Ontario were discussed at eonsid- erable length in view of the ap- parent disinterestedness of the Government towards this major in- dustry of th province. The needs of agricultural Ontario were fully discussed in relation to Hydro ex- tension." The Government has also been criticized for exporting power to the United States and in regard to the invasion of Ontario districts by private power com- panies. It is expected these mat- ters will be debated on the floor of the House. Financial Affairs Financial matters are also ex- pected ta provide some sharp dis- cussion. The provincial treasurer, Hon. Dr. J. D. Monteith, in his pre- session statement announced the province would have a surplus for the current year. It will be con- tended by the Opposition that but for the profits of the Liquor Con- trol Board there would be no sur- plus. Rumors that Premier Ferguson and another member of the cabinet were thinking of retiring have fail- ed to materialize and it is unlikely there will be any radical change in the Government for some time. Two new ministers have been ap- pointed since the close of the last session. Hon. Frederick T. Smye, of West Hamilton, and Hon. Ed- ward A. Dunlop, member-elect for north Renfrew, will oceupy cabinet seats as ministers without port- folios. BULL MARKET ADDS MILLIONS TO VALUE OF NICKEL SHARES Toronto, Jan. 23.--Another chap- {ter in the romance of International | Nickel was written in the markets jof New York, Montreal and Toron- to yesterday when the tickers spell- ed out a market valuation ap- proaching a billion dollars--to be exact, $963,078,060--on the mines and works of International Nickel and Mond. As the quotations swept upward they gave to these mines and works a valuation greater than that of any banking institution in Canada--an amount far exceeding the $922,717,000 assessed value of the City of Toronto, with its sky- scrapers, factories and all that lies within the boundaries of the city. On this date in 1927, Interna- tional Nickel sold on the New York market at 40. On this date one 'Year ago the same tsock sold at a high of 97 7-8 and closed at 94 5-8. Last year the stock ranged from 73 3-4 up to 260. The romance of spectacular fortune for many is seen im the fact that one share which sold not so long ago around 70 has been split six for one, and each of the six yesterday stood at 70. So that a share valued in the recent past at $70 yesterday became worth $420. It is understood that all the cost- al boats were able to make their harbor before the storm came on, and so far no damage to shipping has been reported. of people who enjov their meals with "no more fcar of indigestion. evening gown the less there is of anything clsc.-- Judge. { Str Willlam Bull is said to show in Favor of Ask Premier Baldwin to cussion of the Scheme. London, Jan, 28.--An informal poll of the House of Commons by that an overwhelming majority of the members favor the many times suggested English Channel tunnel, 'When Parliament reassembles on Tuesday, Ernest Thurtle, a Labor- ite, will ask Premier Baldwin-when the question can be formally dis- cussed in Parliament. An even more fascinating pro- posal than the 60-year-old project for tunnel, also under discussion in England, is & channel bridge, from it travellers who have suf- fered the tortures of channel sea- sickness could laugh at the churn- ing waters that caused them mis- ery. A channel bridge scheme was outlined 40 years ago. Competent engineers claim such a structure feasible, The channel at its nar rowest point is comparatively shal- low, St, Paul's Cathedral set down in the middle of it would leave a good part of the dome sticking above the waters, But British military strategists, arguing for national security, have violently opposed the bridge project as well as the more practical tun- nell through all the decades of discussion, The question to be decided is whether the World War altered England's splendid isolation as a tight little island. Those who favor the tunnel say this country is directly open to attack from the air ,to siege by submarine and pos- gibly to invasion by air. If they can convince the military strategists of this, the tunnel project will at last enter the field of practical politics. Political rather than engineering difficulties always have blocked the channel tunnel. On two occa- sions the House of Commons voted in favor of the proposal and work actually started from the English side, but Britain's committee on Imperial defence, the last word In military strategy, influenced the Government against the project, Ferry Disadvantages So the channel subsoil remains unpierced while the world's big- PUBLIC LIBRARY ANNUAL MEETING W.
