The fact that there were many Arabs among the 62 children who lived at the home and who were removed by night for safety to another place, did not prevent the Arab ruffians from burning the house to the ground, sald one of the speakers. way everyone wll; he assured of the best¥of times all through the season, Next Monday evening is Busi: ness and Dramatics night, The meeting begins at eight o'clock.

Then, with the point of a knife cut upon the back of anothar looking glass around a portion of the silvering of the required form but a little larger, Upon it place a small drop of mercury; a drop the size of a pin head will be sufficient as soon as the mercury has penetrated the malgam the piece may be moved and placed on the spot which is being repaired.

The ex- perimental adventure of last winter proved successful beyond all expecta- tion and that in face of several heavy handicaps which will be present in the coming contest, Last year the idea was new both to the W.C.TU. workers who engineered it, and the Sunday schools and their scholars, At first it was regarded with hesi- tancy and the prize list was insigni- ficant. But interest grew as the course proceeded and the number of prizes increased, still further stimu- lating interest on the part of both scholars and their parents, The course was a voluntary home-study course, Yet at the end of twelve weekly lessons many thousand young people and children handed in writ- ten examinations, Over 10,000 honor certificates, 10,396 were won by those taking two thirds of the possible marks, The prizes, which ultimately aggregated over three thousand dol- lars in value, were earned by young people in every province and of every Protestant sect, The recent Biennial National W.C, U. convention held in Oshawa brought together the leaders in every province and the convention thrilled as each and all bore testimony to the achievements of last winter's educa- tional adventure; and with new vi- sion the resolution to carry the plan on into successive years with ever in- creasing efficiency was adopted with huge enthusiasm. It is expected that apart from the splendid national and provincial prizes the coming contest will be stimulated by some kind of prizes for every Sunday school, these being donated by local well wishers.
