REINDEER HERDS IN CANADA ADVOCATED English Explorer Says Gov- ernment Should Con- sider Matter Ottawa, July 11.--In these days when railway lines are being extend- ed into areas once but little know, when the tide of civilizaztion creeps further northward with the develop- ment of mining and other rich re- sources of Canada, the, introduction of reindeer into this Dominion should be considered. This is the opinion of Capt. H. T. Munn, an English explor- er and fur trader, who has spent 4) years in Canada's northern regions and more than a decade on Baffin's Island. The reindeer's capacity for drawing heavy loads long distances has been proved by other drivers than Santa Claus, declares this hardy trader from the north, who tglls his friends in Ot- tawa, that he would like to see rein- deer steak on the dinner table, rein- deer as a means of transportation and a certain food supply for miners and other settlers in the latitudes of white horizons, and reindeer thriving by the tens of thousands on the Mac- kenzie river delta, "Alaska," he states, "has at least come into her reindeer heritage. Af ter 30 years' experience in the rein« deer industry she now possesses 1,- 200,000 reindeer valued at millions of This year 12000 carcasses will be shipped from Nome, Alaska, the great export centre, to which the Eskimo come with their reindeer and go home well paid for them. Theie, the Eskimo really live, whereas in Canada they are trying to get along on a diminishing fur trade and num- ber only 3,000 between Hudson Bay and Alaska. The introduction of rein- deer into Canda would mean a basic industry for the Eskimo who are the natural herders of this animal which is unusually hard to break in, "Fur traders, thinking in terms of fine, white fox," said Capt. Munn, "can scarcely be expected to take an interest in reindeer. The reindeer in- dustry, if introduced into this Domin- ion, should first be fathered by the Government. Alaska's example is worthy of consideration, when one recalls. that reindeer placed in Lab- rador by Dr. Wilfred T, Grenfell in 1907 would have thrived indefinitely, probably, had it not been for the lack of proper supervision: by the Government of Newfoundland. Fish- ermen and Indians in Labrador found reindeer meat the best of food. But the day came when the remnant of Dr. Grenfell's herd had to find har- borage on the Island of Anticosti. I would like to see a time come when a great procession of reindeer would wend its way from Alaska and be properly cared for on the Mackenzie. \ (By Staff Whitby, July 11.<Luther Pas- cos, young Pickering, township man, has been lodged in the coun- ty jail here on" a charge of com- mitting a serious offense against a young girl, fs Correspondent "Telephone 800 BOWLING GREEN TO BE READY SOON Pickering; July 11.--The grounds committee of the Bowling Club are functioning' to good advantage and the green at the Printers' Guild is being put into shape as rapidly as possible.

They left the village by bus early in the morning for Toronto, where they took the boat across the lake, returning by the same route in the evening. All report a pleasant day. 20 ATTEND HOME NURSING CLASS OF WOMEN'S INSTITUTE Pickering, July 11.--About twenty women and girls responded to- roll call at the opening session of the Home-Nursing Class, held under the auspices of the Women's Institute. The course, under the direction of Mrs. M, E. Lowe, RN, of Toronto, began on Monday, and ' will be con- ducted évery afternoon for ten days in the Continuation School.

Fydell; inspector of public schools for the county of Pcel, presented his annual report to the Brampton pub- lic school board at their monthly meeting Tuesday night, and it had many constructive suggestions, to which' the board will give serious consideration. 'Mr, Fydell urged the board to make an inquiry in the fall as to the number of adolescents, who through circumstances 'gver which they had no -control, had to discontinue public school work before they reached their entrance ;:and find work in fac- tories or other places. If a sufficient number were enrolled, *his suggestion was for the establishment of a night school to enable them to advance in educational pursuit. While he found the equipmient and accommodation satisfacotry, he em- phasized the value of visual educa- tion and the installation of a lantern for illustrative slide work in history and geography. There was urgent need for increased supplementary reading, he noted, and suggested that a sum be sct aside yearly to build up 'a good library suitable for the different grades. The contract for painting and de- corating six rooms in the Central school was awarded to Mr. Geo. Ching. Reports were presented by the two principals, in which June attendance and averages were up, to usual standard, Capt. Stanley N. Dancey, who has won distinction on the field of battle and as a journalist and lecturer, ad- dressed a large gathering in the 'Chautauqua tent yesterday afternoon on "Canadianization," and his patrio- tic appeal to his gathering to stand four square for their country made a great impression, ) river delta, . The development of a "herd up there would prove of great economic value to Canada, because it would provide the means of exploration and opening up of the unknown north, Horses are useless, there because there is no foad for them. And the bulk of the loads the dogs carry must be food for themselves, The north abounds with the mosses which are the natural food of the reindeer. Not only would the reindeer meat be food for the Eskimo, but with what may prove the general diminution of the world's meat. supply, reindeer steak on the dinner table may taste very well some day." Capt. Munn goes back to early days when with the Eskimo he dis- cussed their problems over a dinner of seal meat in an igloo on Baffin's Island. His interests still lie in the north. where his eyes have scanned far, white horizons and seen the for- tunes of the Eskimos diminish with their 'dwindling fur trade. He is a lover of high adventure and the great outdoors, who has come back from the hinterland convinced that Cana- dians should take an increasing in- terest in their less known northern regions.

Young reparations plan into gepation, appeared unsettled Monday .as the. Quai d'Orsay elabors ated on the text of its reply to the British note, The 'British apparently 'have brought some pressure to bear in an attempt to have the conference held in London, but it is certain that rance will make every effort to have the meeting in some neutral country. It is considered fairly certain that the meeting will be set for early in August--probably August 6--if the differences are ironed out, France, which considers choice of the place of meeting as of utmost importance because of the vital pe litical problems to be discussed, willing to 'permit England to po the site if no allied capital is se- lected. Switzerland is considered the best place because of the technical and political nature of argument which must occur and the problem of dealing with the press. Foreign Minister Briand conferred with Ambassador Von Hoesch, of 'Germany Monday afternoon, ac- quainting him with France's reply to Britain's suggestions, France also favors slow stages in developing the discussions while it is understood the Prime Minister MacDonald of Great Britain, would prefer to have one big conference at which the problems, such as evacuation of the Rhineland, will be threshed out. Protest Plan Duesseldorf, Germany, July 11.-- Flemish and 'W estphalian industrial- ists and cconomics meeting here to discuss the Owen D. Young repara- tions plan, added to Germany's na- tionalistic protests against acceptance of the plan by passing a resolution which said they "would - decline to guarantee fulfillment, The resolution said the Young plan represents political as well as econ- omic solution of the reparations prob- lem and the associations represented at this meeting therefore decline to guarantee fulfillment of the plan" Getting Skinnier Every Day Something Must Be Done and Done Right Now----Quick Tens of thousands of thin, run- down men--yes, and women too-- are getting discouraged--are giv- ing up all hope of ever being able to take on flesh and look healthy and strong.

The Duchess of York has arranged to visit the pageant; many society people will be present, and in some cases it is hoped that the actua descendants of historical personages will take the part of their ancestors. There will'be some 870 performers --all_amateurs--and 50 or 60 horses.

"A large part of the history of Ash- down Forest," added Lord Edward "from the conquest down to a hun- dred years ago, consists chiefly of quarrels between the Royal foresters and the tenants. "Sussex was the great iron-produc- ing centre of the Middle Ages. "The iron was found near the sur- face of the ground--another frequent cause for squabbles, Cattle fell into holes dug to extract the ore. The iron was worked by hammers, using water power. "The pageant will show hunting scenes in which horses, hounds and hawks avill take part. Lord Howard de Walden is taking a great interest in the pageant, and is bringing his hawks. There will also be choral singing and court and folk dances. "I would urge those 'who wish to be present to obtain their tickets at once, The arena will only accommo- date about 4,500 people at each per- formance." Among the performers who, it is hoped, will take part in the pageant are the Earl and Countess De la Warr and their children, the Coun- tess of Darnley, and Mrs. A. Drum- mond (Pauline Chase). COMPANIES SHOW FAITH IN CANADA British Concerns Anxious Enter Fire Field In Dominion Ottawa, July 11.--Faith in the fu- ture of Canada is indicated by the number of outside . insurance com- panies seeking to acquire control of the smaller Canadian companies and the determination 'of the latter not to sell out. News of what is going on in this respect is coming to the Insurance Department here. Developments of this kind relate almost exclusively to fire and casualty insurance. So far as life insurance is concerned: the Canadian companies so dominate their field that no attempt to get them is made, but several British concerns have sought to acquire Canadian fire companies without result, To.some extent 'also, the same thing has been done by the American companies, According to what the department knows. of the situation, the Canadian field is now over cultivated in the line of fire and casualty insurance, with hardly enough business to go around while the costs of acquiring business are increased by the extra effort re- quired to produce it. It is under these conditions that various offers of buying out Cana- dian concerns have been made, but without any inclination on their part of letting go. to Privy Council The Sun Life Company is expected to carry to the Privy Council the case it lost before the Exchequer Court here after it had been the subject of reference from Parliament. The company sought to increase its capi- tal from twa to four millions. Strong opposition developed in the last two sessions. The conipany maintained that, under its charter, its capital really was four millions, but the act was sought to remove any doubt. Another argument used was the frus- tration of outside control by increases ing the capital and Canadian hold- ings. The court here last month ruled against the company's contention and it is now likely to go to the Privy Council. While an increased capital is insisted on as vital, the opposition in Parliament is sufficiently strong and obstinate to hold up the bill even though numerically it is probably a minority. . Among the banks as among the insurance companies no mergers are on the tapis. The last one was the ac- uisition a year ago by the Bank of mmerce of the Standard Bank: The reaction in Parliament and outside, was not the most favorable and there seems to be growing sentiment that 12 banks are none tod any for 10,- 000,000 people even though - their branches number over 4,000. The in- dicated disposition in Parliament is adverse to the centralized control of credit facilities and, while the bill has never passed, one has been introduced from time to time to make the sanc- tion of Parliament instead of the Government, an, essential to bank mergers." It. is $ the next merger move will be in the Province of Que- bec buf that it is not 'imminent. NOT CONNECTED WITH TAXATION SAY CATHOLICS Wr Toronto, July. 11.--Leading Ro- man Catholics disclaim the connec- tion of the apostolic delegate to Canada, Most Rev. Andrew (as- sulle, D.D,, with the campaign be- ing carried on to secure for the separate schools a share of tne taxes paid by certain corporations, according to a statement issued yesterday by Thos, F. Battle, K.C. Mr. Battle issued this statement here following a meeting in Ot- tawa of the separate schools assess- ment amendment committee, The statement declares, that the cam- paign was started and is being con- ducted by Catholic citizens of On- tario and not by the apostolic dele- gate, It read: "In view of statements that have appeared from time to time and re. cently in the public press to the ef- fect that the movement in Ontario to secure an equitable division of school taxes payable by publicly owned and other incorporated cor- porations and companies was inau- gurated by his excellency, the pres- ent apostolic delegate to Canada, the committees in charge of this movement desire to announce that this movement has been undertak- tario and that the apostolic dele gate has never had any connection with this moment either in its in- auguration or conduct, directly or indirectly."
