And as she made ready for bed in her own plain little bedroom, Janet, thinking of that other room where Mildred lived in such careless luxury, resolved that she would go again, go and learn how to make a home like that for herself some day, And oddly enough she did not think of Jimmy at all.

He has taken her to see his sister Mildred be- cause he is anxious for some one in his family to know and love Janet as he does, and a meeting with his father is out of the ques- tion for the present. Mildred, after welcoming them warmly, has asked permission to paint Janet's portrait. The establishment of air mail ser- viaes, eventually to cross Canada, and operating already to rembte regions, is considered a national project open- ing up wide areas to settlement and speeding development, but the reve- nue compared with the cost is very small. These facts, together with postage rate reductions arc held to explain and to justify any disparity between the departmental expendi- tures and revenues. coming ee'sbit which she promised she woula get cards for Jimmy and Janet to see, and other things that interested them. They kept warily away from personal topics, Janet hardly listened. She was busy rear- ranging in her mind the living room she had always planned for her dream house, It would hav: to be much larger than she had imagined it. It would have to have a mammoth fire- place and shelves and shelves of National Railways, MANY PRIVILEGES T0 KING'S WORKERS | Job at Sandringham Most P TO this time he had never seemed But now, as the rumor ran here and there, he suddenly became conspicuous--~the man who had never tried the delicious new bar, ROWNTREE'S YORK MILK CHOCOLATE. When a chocalate bar becomes as overwhelmingly the popular favorite as York Milk has become, it seems books. Dreams of Splendor Many years later Janet asked her- self how she could for a moment have believed that such luxury as surrounded Mildred Warren was the result of her own efforts at painting. From the gorgeous evening gown that Mildred wore to the smallest de- tail of the studio apartment wealth and good taste were displayed, yet Janet, relaxed and unsuspecting, took her cue readily from the matter-of- fact attitude of brother and sister and only wondered mildly from time to time why so talented a sister had a brother content to work in a filling station. She followed Mildred from the liv- ing room of the apartment into the studio, a smaller room, covered by a skylight and with long windows that looked on to the park on one side and blank walls on the other. Mil- dred drew heavy curtains' of mul- berry colored velvet'over the windows and . turned on the lights in the room. Along one side her canvasses had been hung. Beneath them stood ts of shellac and varnish, for she had been finishing the pictures she intended to exhibit. y "] hate framed pictures," Mildred said, going over to one of the larger canvasses and touching it with an experimental finger. "Somehow the frames never seem to suit the pic- ture and then I like my work to speak for itself without the help of any frame, however artistic, to set it " Mich of Mildred's work was very clever, none of it was mediocre. A critic would have said there was little depth to it, but there was originality and a sense of design in cven the poorest canvasses. Janet, though, was no art critic, and she had never seen so many pictures at a time in all her life. She was delighted and interested and one picture pleased her particularly. It was very simple, a white house, nestling in trees, the . afternoon sun bathing it in light and throwifig the trees into relief. "That's a little old house | saw in Maine one summer," Mildred ex- plained, seeing Janet's interest in it. "There was the dearest old couple living in it, they used to come out and watch me paint it and some day 1 may send them the picture, they seemed to like it so well." "Better not be too generous," immy said in a warning tone, 'you've got a living to make, young ady." Arrangements Mildred shrugged her shoulders, but a quick glance at Jimmy told him she had heeded his words. "I'll leave the giving away of my best canvasses until I'm rich and famous -- who knows, you may all belong to the 'I- knew-her-when' club some day." "I belong now," Janet said, a little breathlessly, her eyes shining, "I never have seen so many lovely things at one time in my life before. 'It's wonderful to be able to do this, isn't it?" She appealed to Jimmy, who, after a proud glance at Mildred, said, "Well, you've one admirer more, any- way, Mildred." : 3 "So I have," his sister said smiling at 'Janct, "and if that admirer will only let me paint her, I'll be mighty happy. : "I'd love it," Janet said happily.

"1 promise," Mildred said promptly. "And I'll make you a present of her portrait if it's any good. Maybe be- tween us we can manage a little more entertaining than you can seem to afford on your--what is it, $20 a week 7" ' "Twenty-two fifty and tips," Jim- my said with a grin. "Look, some chap gave me 50 cents today for wip- ing the grease off his engine--that makes me $23 even so far this week." Mildred made a grimance and held out a slender foot 'clad in green, "These cost me $25," she said. "Oh, Jimmy, I think you're an awful fool to be doing what you are. I just couldn't stand it." "No, I suppose you couldn't but after all if I'm going to manage the business some day I want to know it from the ground up. And nothing that lets me meet a girl like Janet is utterly foolish, now is it?" "You win, Jimmy. She's probably worth a dozen like me--well, let's go back. You know what I think now, I'll get her to come in next Saturday for a sitting and if you happen in about tea time there'll be no harm done." "Good. Ill be here," Jimmy prom- ised. "That is if [ can get away," he added. "I forgot for a moment that I'm now a working man." They went back to the living room, and Janet unwillingly got herself out of her easy chair and nrepared to go home.

Important work, as well, effected in harbor improves dock construction by the departs of Railways and Canals staff. A larg portion of the necessary dredging has been completed during the past sumi- | ner and the inside or shallow crib for a large dock was sunk and load- | ed, The work has been handled un der the supervision of George Kidd, resident engineer for harbor work. The fall, however, will show cven greater development in railway improvement at Churchill and the appearance of the harbor proper will have been altered drastically, Eight or nine miles of trackage] will 'be laid next summer, it is plan- ned, A 2,000,000-bushel elevator will] be constructed, as a start towards al series of storage bins that may some day be called on to carry a large portion of the west's grain crop Freight sheds and warchouses will be built, More dock work is to be done.

Tracks al- ready raised two or three feet at the terminal will be brought still higher. Buildings perched above the land with basements exposed will be brought to normal level by raising the grade with fill to suit the con- struction of the buildings, Conveniently, gravel is available a- long the Hudson Bay line in almost tmitless quantities and of high grade, Lo this advantage must be ascribed the" fact that the ling from The Pas to Churchill is separated only by pure ballast from the frost-laden muskeg. At Mile 507, just four miles from Churchill, is an extensive gra- vel pit that did not close down last fall until Noyember 11, When the gravel pit at Mile 472 ceased opeta- tions several days later, it had been opened weeks after other pits had frozen up, hundreds of miles south. I'he solution of the seeming paradox centres about the fact that the far north pits are extraordinary free from moisture and hence teh more mpervious to frost, New problems will be brought when Churchill's gates are thrown op- en- to the entering surge of new re- sidents next spring.
