TOUNVEL BRONZE TABLET Women's Institute Honors Pioneer Women (By The Canadian Press) Winnipeg, Man., May 27.--Ken- nethe Haiz writing editorially un- der the title "These All Died in Faith," says: = "Next month the Women's Institute of Manitoba will unveil a bronze tablet to the memory of the pioneer women. There it will hang amid the graci- ous beauty of the Parliament buildings, remote, lovely in line, a tribute placed by hands that hon- or and love and understand, to the women who did so much to make this country. "Would they be just a: little hewildered, that great Company, if they could gather once again, and hear the speeches made sing. ing their praises? Would they smooth down their white aprons and pat back their hair, already smooth, and blush a little to find themselves so prominent? Would they begin to wonder if someone had remembered to put the kettle on? All these kind people would need tea. Thank fortune, the cook- ie jar was full." Miss Haig then pletures Alvid- | ly a typical pioneer women: "Now take Mrs. Richards. Why, she camé in before there were any roads and teaming from Winnj- peg, she remembers how over and over again she fenced off the twe habies in the wagon while she helped her husband unload and zet the back wheels free of the mud. It was rather difficult on the prairies just as first, but Mrs. Richards knows more ways of serving rabbit than any one alse, When the children got big enough to go to school, she took council with the parents of the five ather eligible scholars in the community and then she set out walking from homestead to homestead with a petition to get a school. "True, most of the homsteaders were young bachelors. You could al- ways tell by the way the door sag- ged before you got within speak- ing distance that no woman lived there, or if that failed, the up- curtained window was an infall- ible sign. The bachelogs may not have béen altogether enthusiastic about the school, what with the taxes, but after all. Mrs. Richards the | What New York Is Wearing With Capelet Peplum and More Bow s By ANNETTE Don't you think this an adorable little rig?

WOMAN STUDENT RECEIVES HONORS (By The Canadian Press) Winnipeg, Man., May 27.--Miss Elizabeth Dowding was awarded a Ph, D, in Botany at the annual convocation exercises of the Uni- versity of Manitoba.

In the old days Mike was pointed out by everyone as the village drunk, but now you'd think he was just nobody. eRe al Tat OL' MISTAH BUZZARD SAVES Lip Unknowingly, without intent, Is aid to other often lent. ~=0ld Mother Nature. Sailing round and round igh in the air was Ol' Mistah Buzzard. He has wonderful eyes, has OI Mistah Buzzerd, and from way ip there he could see far over the desert in all directions. He was looking for something to eat and he has to have wonderful sight in order to find enough to eat. You see, OI' Mistah Buzzard does not kill, as do the members of the Hawk family. None of the little people has cause to fear Ol' Mis- tah Buzzard. He depends on finding the hodies of thosz who have heen killed hy others and left, or who have been killed by accident, or have died from some other cause. So he is always looking and looking from high up in the air. Sometimes he sees those who have been hurt in some way, or have heen attacked by those who kill for food and have escaped, [or are sick, and he knows that they cannot live long. Then he keeps watch and sometimes comes down and waits until the unfor- tunate one goes into the long sleep that knows no waking. He must have meat and he knows no other way of getting it. He thinks this a far better way than Fkill- ing, and I am inclined to think so too. Thus his neighbors do not fear him. So it happened that as he sail- ed round high up in the sky. lock- ing down, he saw poor Flip, the Lost Little Terrier, and he knew by the way he crawled over the hot sand that he could not live long. For a time he circled high above Flip. Then on his broad wings he sailed down and alight- ed not far from Fip to wail for the end. He hadn't the least idea of saving Flip's life. He would- n't have known how to go abort it if he had wanted to. His one thought was that here would be a good dinner for him soon, Now Farmer Brown's Boy, rid- ing over the desert looking for Flip,, had seen Ol' Mistah Buz- zard sailing round and ound high in the sky, and knowing OI' Mistah Buzzard's ways, had kept watch of him. When he had seen Ol' Mistah Buzzard sail down, he had turned his horse in that di- rection. "That fellow has seen s)me- thing that he thinks will make him a dinner," said he. "If any- thing has happened to poor lit- tle Flip, no one would know i: sooner than Ol' Mistah Buzzard. He would be almost certain to find him. I'll just go over there and see what it is that he's so interested in." So he put his horse to a gzal- lop and. presently he could see Ol' Mistah Buzzard on the ground just waiting and looking intently at something behind a cactus plant. Not until he was very near did Ol' Mistah Dnuzzard spread his broad wings and slow- ly flap up into the air with a most disgusted and disappointed look. But Farmer Brown's Boy had no eyes for Ol' Mistah Buzzard. He had caught sight of something white behind that cactus plant, and a moment later he was off his horse and had Flip in his arms. Flip tried hard to wag his stub of a tail, but he was too exhausted to do even that, But in his soft pleading eyes, his master saw the recognition that he could express in no other way and the sudden light of hope. Farmer Brown's Boy hastily reached for that canteen of pre- | cious water. A few drops at a | time he poured on that poor! swollen little tongue. He gent- ly bathed Flip's head, and all the time he talked to him, He knew that it wouldn't do to give him a lot of water at once. So he gave him only a few drops at a time. Then he gathered him in his arms mounted his horse and galloped back to the ranch, where the folks knew just what to do. For- tunately it wasn't far and Flip was soon made comfortable and gradually given the water he so longed for. Later in the day Farmer Brown's Boy caught sight of a speck sailing round and round high in the sky. "Good Or Mistah Buzzard!" he ex- claimed. "You don't know it, but vou saved Flip's life. A little more and it would have been too late. I hope you found a dinner somewhere else." OI' Mistah Buzzard did and so all were happy. (Copyright, 1931, T. W. Burgess) The next story: "Flip Meets a Queer Little Fellow." ELIZABETH LONG MISSION CIRCLE The Elizabeth .Long Mission Circle held their regular meeting at the home of Mrs. Lloyd Whit- tingdon, Hortop Ave., on Wednes- day evening, and she opened the meeting with a Devotional period. It was moved hy Hilda Hare and seconded by Elena Stacey that Mrs. Davenport be appointed secretary for the balance of the year. Gladys Frise and Flora McRoberts were appointed to take charge of the next meeting which is to take the form of a picaie. Mary Wales then read the fol- lowing address to Hilda Hare, & bride-to-be of this month and Dorothy Whittingdon presented her with a comport set. Dear Hilda: It is with great that we gather here this evening to wish you every joy throughout the coming years. Your presence has always been an inspiration to wus. You have worked untirineiv and we hope that now you have entered another sphere of life you will still f time to meet with »e continue with the Circle. We ask you to accept this slight token of our apprecina- pleasure ommu | Monney's Bakery f i tion and affection and hope that in your new home it will constantly remind you of the happy times we have had together, Signed on behalf of the Elizabeth Long Mis- sion Circle. Miss \ Mayouwna was the speaker of the evening and she gave a very interesting tals on her work in the Ports, The meeting closed with the Watch- word. Lab DANDELIONS NOT UNNOTICED Toronto, May 27.-- Walking over the lovely garden of "High- lands" (when Mrs. W. J. Dunlap was hostess to a Japanese Prince and Princess) the Prince, walking with Hon. Newton Powell, stopped suddenly and pointed to a bright little yellow head. It was conspic- uous because all good gardeners wage unremitting war again this persistent beauty, knowing all tog well her wiles. "What is that beautiful little flower coming up in the sod?" This is what he asked, and his words in English were so few dur- ing. his visit that they were care- fully noted. Well, a cat may look at a king, and a self-satisfied Can- adian dandelion may prink over her day and hour, now that she has been singled out by a prince, but those who love their lawns will get out the sharp knives for Beauty's head, just the same, be- fore it whitens to old age.
