Tht story runs from the time of Gabriel Sash, a Long Hunter of the forest, through the Civil War years, down to 1890. Forests duels, fighting, love, and politics were warp and' woot of this Kentucky life. And from this fabric as in a gorgeous tapestry, the unity and rieh tradi- tions of a family and a state em- erge. "A Mounty's Wife" by L. Mun day is the history of twenty years devoted to a husband in the Royal North-West Mounted Police, and to the service that organization has given to Canada. It is'a ve- cord of almost constant hardship and anxiety, of heroism and breathe less adventure----and it all makes fascinating reading for the arme chair travellers. An fateresting book of Irench- Canadian life is Rock and Sand by J. R. Oliver, This long rambling novel is mostly made up of melo- dramatic incidents occurring dure ing the many years of intercourse between simple French-Canadians of a small village near the Bt. Lawrence, and their American summer visitors. The fortunes of two families make up the story, which is told with skillful charac- terization by an author concernod primarily with religious and social contrasts, "Six Canadian Plays" by. IH. A. Voaden is a distinctive contribution to Canadian literature. The edit- or has written a preface and on ine troduction in which he makes an appeal for Canadian culture and art, and particularly a Canadian theatre and drama, The relation ship with Canadian paintings is strengthened by the {lustrations, being reproductions of canvases by Canadian artists. The plays are: "The Bone Spoon" by B, Sandford, "The Mother Lode" by A. Key," "Manitou Portage" by T. M. More row, "Lake Dore" by J. 13. Middle- ton, "God Iorsaken" by C. ¥. Car- ruthers, and "Winds of Life" by D. 8. Conover. Notes on the stag: Ing of the plays are included. One of E. P. Oppenihelm's best stories is his last one 'Up thie Lad- der of Gold."

"Staying With Relation" by Rose Macaulay is a combination of author and title that offers possi- bilities that are richly realized in the story, Catherine Grey, a young English novelist, goes to stay with an aunt, uncle and an hssortment of cousins and step-cousing on a Spanieh plantation in a Guatamala forest. She is among the tow novels ists that are not bored by writing novels and is eager to obyava these relations 'highly finished products of a modern civilization 50 fantastically decorating the ruins of a vast primeval culture." She is precipitated into a succes slon of Involved situations which are nicely calculated to tax her ability as an analyst of character, The treatment is characteristically brilliant, ironical, and pensatrating, keenly perceived andadroitly exe- cuted. Mr. Masefleld in writing the bio. graphy of one ship, "Tha Wan- erer," recreates the days of the sailing vessels.. 'The building of the Wanderer, and the history of her voyages, told in prose, is ine terspersed with vers) narrating two of her most disastrous experi- ences. 'Success' by L.

The subject {s the unjust imprise onment of a man, the many people affected by his sentence, and the administration of justice in Bav- aria, It might be applicable to any other country,. A great number of character are drawn clearly and with understanding.

READY T0 START WORK (Continued from page 1) feet type, and capable of taking care of the immediate gas require- ments of the city, Development Intended I also had a chat this morning with F. E. Laramore, the chief en- "Ineef of the Management and Maintenance Corporation, on the policy of the corporation in enter- ing new territory. "When we take over a new property we take It over to develop and operate it to the fullest possible extent of the district being served. We are utili- ties operators, not merely brokers or financial agents, and we intend to make the most of every oppor- tunity that comes our way for de velopment, Naturally, that is what we will do at Oshawn for there would be no use !' «iu, over the plant unless we did." Mr, Laramore's statement, of course, simply bears out what 1 have reported as a result of my visits to the Mlissourl and South- ern Illinols properties of the com- pany, This morning, too, 1 have been poring over hundreds of photographs of various utilities operated by the corporation, most ly gas plants and distribution systems, nll showing the thorough manner in which development Is carried on, and the amazingly mod- ern methods employed for gas production and distribution, I am bringing home a few of these photographs with me, because I know they will be of interest to the people of Oshawa at the pres- ent juncture. In a previous article, I think I summed up fairly well my im- pressions of the.whole U.P, and L organization. It {s impossible how- ever, to stress too strongly the operating end of the corporation's actlvities. The slogan, "We Pros- per as We Serve' seems to animate the whole organization, and from top to bottom of the organization =! there is that same spirit of service. To Sell Service As 8. D. Wheeler, vice-president of the Litchfield and Madison Rallway sald to me yesterday, "We have only one thing to sell--trans- portation, and that means ser- vice! 80 it may be sald of the gas utilities of the company, "Wo liave only one thing to sell--gas, and that means service." And if in the production of gas it is pos There's no truco home for bird or man Where love has not laid out tho plan, --Redshoulder the Hawi. "I'll go right ott and get the first stick," declarcd Redshoulder Redshoulder the Hawk and Mrs. Redshoulder have been matcp for many years. They have had many differences of opinion, but these really haven't mattered at all, for love, which each has for the other, has always smoothed these out, as ft always will, It was just 80 in choosing the tree in which to build the new nest. Having agreed to Mrs. Redshoulder's cholco in the matter. Redshoulder said no more about it. "We'll build right in this crotch," sald Mrs. Redshoulder. "These two branches are perfect for holding a nest. They are so big that we'll never be afraid of hav- ing one break; they are high onough, yet not too high, and no matter how hard the wind blows, the nest can never be shaken loose." "I'l go right off and get the first stick," declared Redshoulder, "The first stick is . already in place," replied Mrs. Redshoulder dryly. "I put it there before you came," Bure enough, there was a fairly good-sized stick firmly placed in that crotch. = Redshoulder hadn't noticed it, or if he had, he had thought it was one that had fallen there. "That last nest of ours was a good one, but this one will be bet: ter," continued Mrs. Redshouder. "Every time I build a nest I learn something. I guess it is a good thing to have a new home once in a while. We must have this foun- dation strong, so don't bring any rotten sticks. Just remember that wo are building for a long time to come. Anyway, I hope so. I would hate to feel that we are building for those robbers who took our other nest." She meant Hooty the Owl and Mrs. Hooty. The building of a new home fis not a thing to be rushed. Red- shoulder and Mrs. Redshoulder didn't hurry their work. There was time enough. They had ar- rived early and there was plenty of time before it would be neces- sary to begin housekeeping in earnest. So they divided their time between hunting for food, building the new nest and just sitting near by, resting and dreaming of the new home they would have, Redshoulder tried to do his share and spent a great doal of time hunting for sticks of the propor size. Several times he added his sticks to the nest when Mra. Redshoulder wasn't there, -only to have her pull them out when she did return, Sometimeg she. rears ranged them, and sometimes she scornfully tossed them away. "That stick might do for the nest of Blacky the Crow, but not for our nest," she would say. *'I do wish you would be mora care- ful in tho sticks you bring." '"'Yos'm," Redshoulder would say meekly. "You are right, my dear. Of course, you are right, That stick looked all right to me, but you know best, Isn't that stick you have just un trifle small?" "No, it isn't," Mrs. Redshould- or would retort, "It is time to use smaller sticks, I'm glad to have you bring sticks, but I do wish you wouldn't try to put them into the nest. You only make more Sind for me, for you never put them fn the proper place. There is a right way and a wrong way to place a stick, and you always man- age to place it the wrong way." "Yes'm," Redshoulder' would say. "Of course, you are right. | Next tima I'll just leave the stick for you." But the next time he brought a stick and found that Mrs, Red- SAFE For RHEUMATIS Prompt relief from--HEADACHES . « LUMBAGO, COLDS SORE THROAT. . RHEUMATISM . NEURITIS. « « NEURALGIA. .

The stick was always pulled out and put somewhere else or thrown aside, Mrs. Redshoulder knew every stick that went into that nest and there was no fooling her. So day by day the nest grew and day by day the Redshoulders grew happier, Bulld- ing a new home was work, but also ft was great fun. (Copyright, 1931, Ww. Burgess). py T.

I might express the wish that all the ratepayers of Oshawa could have made the same trips as I have done in the last five or six days, seen the things I have seen and met the people I have met. Then there would be a high ap- preciation of the status of the Utilities Power and Light Corpor- ation from every standpoint, and a lization of what it will eventu- ally mean to Oshawa to have that corporation establish itself in the city. "Beautify Canada" : No more suitable time than the pre- sent could have been chosen for the instituting of a "Beautify Canada" campaign. When many are feeling the affects of depressed business it affords a relief to cultivate some of the ideals and characteristics that pro- ceed from the human heart and mind, The taste for gardens is strong in most of us and becomes more pro- nounced as time goes on. Capital- izing on this factor, the Canadian Horticultural Council is doing a com- mendable work, referred to in another column, in starting off the movement that is planned to sweep over the country from coast to coast. The provincial Department of Ag rieylture through horticultural soci- etiey, garden clubs and other bodies have the machinery for reaching all parts of the rural and urban dis- tricts, GROUP SIX OF NORTHMINSTER TO GROW THE BEST, sb \' v7 JE TEEL "CANADA'S GREATEST SEED.
