FOX KNOWS WHEN HUNTING IS OVER London. -- Does a fox know when the hunting season fin- ishes? An incident which oe¢- curred to Guy Hargreaves, mnas- ter of the South Berkshire, at his home near Reading, the other days, seems to indicate that it does. During the season Mr. Har- greaves has hunted from a spin- ney cloge to his lawns a number of foxes, several of which have escaped the hounds. When he looked out of his win- dow the other morning he saw a big fox strolling about on the edge of the lawn in full view, ob- viously having just come from the spinney. ' It showed no fear. and, after looking at him, walked slowly away, Mr. Hargreaves said yes- terday he had not much doubt that the fox he saw was one of | those which had been hunted during the season. "It did not come up and shake hands with me exactly," he said, "but it ceme close to me and seemed quite at home." Judge: "I have listened very carefully to you, Mr, Brown, for an hour, but I am none the wiser." Counsel (politely): "I hardly expected your lordship to be, but I thought you might be better ine Plan Your Holiday in Advance!

"I don't 'mean that we have to dismiss any employees," Ald. Hy- man said in explaining his motion. Ald. Boddy agreed that a city en- gineer should be appointed but con- sidered that it was uscless to talk about rc-organizing the eagincer's department before engaging a new department head. "We will surely. have confidence in the man we appoint," ke said. "And it will be up to him » make suggestions tor the re-orgat.ization of the department." This view was shared by Ald. Morris, Ald.

James Barclay Performs Opening Ceremony Toronto, May 19, -- The formal opening of the new Barclay elemen- tary school, on Wiseman Avenue, mn Sg. John ward, took place yesterday afternoon, in the school gymnasium The school was named in memory of Rev. James Barclay, D.D.,, LL.D. one of the great figures in the an- nals of Protestant education in Montreal, and the honor of declar- ing the school open was accorded his son, Gregor Barclay, K.C. Mal- colm D. Barclay, also a son of Dr. Barclay was present. Hon, Walter G. Mitchell, K.C,, chairman of tie Protestant Committee of Public In struction, attended and all the members of the Board of Protest- treal, with the exception of the chairman, J. Arthur Mathewson, whose office was filled by Very Rev, Dean Arthur Carlisle. Training of Young "I can assure you that I and the other members of our family are deeply sensible to the honor that has been done to our father in the naming of this fine school," said Mr. Barclay. "The training of the young was always dear to his heart. It is a deep satisfaction to me to be chosen to declare this school open- "The future of the school depends largely on you, the pupils. The school board has given you a fine building equipped with all possille facilities. Your teachers are doing all they can for you. Now it rests with you." Fine Building "This js indeed a fine school building," said Mr. Mitchell. "It 1s an honor not only to this district but to the whole city. The Board of School Commissioners is to be highly congratulated. They could not have chosen a name better cal- culated to bring honor to the school than that of 'Barclay' The name recalls, to those of us who knew him the memory not only of a great orator, a renowned educator and chairman ot the Protestant Com- mittee of Public Instruction, but of a great-souled, fine-man. He did a great work for education in Que- bec, devoting to it much of his time for years." Continuing, 'Mr. Mitchell stated briefly his intention of taking up fully in the near future the co-or- dination and centralization of all the Protestant school boards on the island of Montreal. Economy was necessary, he said, at the same time urging the public to support higher salaries for school teachers in order that the highest possible type ot teachers might be invited into the profession. He concluded with words of advice to the children pre- sent, warning them that they were the ones who would make the fine the opportunities offered them the: failure would be a source of reg to them all their lives, The first school to be named Barclay school was built on Gr shields avenue in 1914, this being bestowed on it in 1928, new structure' which opened 1 IS INAUGURATED Ald.

The object is to reduce the costs of manufacture, selling and delivery, by improved organiza- tion in conjunction with an wr- rangement that will ensure ro re- duction in the present output, There is no question of the closing down of any mills, since there are no redundant mills, and there is no price arrangement be- tween the parties concerned. The new organization in charge of the scheme will be known as the Flour Millers Economic Asso- ciation. The association will be launched with offices in Dublin. \ HELPING VACATIONISTS Holidays were coming and Doreen had made no plans. Everything was up in the air.
