BLACK MACKAY, General Agent, Canadian Pacitic Bldg., Toronto New Sacred Heart Convent, Halifax, with distinction in '1909, she re- gistered at the University of Wes- tern Ontaro, in Londc:, 7here she obtained the B.A. degree. During these years she scored as a basket- ball player, took a turn at editing the college paper--the Western University Gazette -- and was much in demand socially. . She spent her first summer hoidays in Ottawa doing research work among the archives. After teach- ing at "The Pines" at Chatham, the collegiate institute in London, and the Oakhurst Girls' school, of which she was principal, she went to the University of Paris and then to New York. She was first student and then teacher at Sacred Heart Convent, associated with Manhatten Col- lege, Manhattenville, N.Y., and be- came director of athletics there. While attending lectures at Ford- ham University in New York, one of the professors suggested she lecture in French for the new Albertus Maynus college, recent- ly opened in New Haven. This proved a step toward Yale, where she attended, took the mas- ter of arts degree, and was s2lect- ed by that university at their re- presentative in Italy at the Uni- versity of Florence. Miss Manley is the first woman and the first Canadian to be awarded this honor and while in Italy she will prepare a disserta- tion on "The Influence of the Phil- osophy of St. Augustine on Dante" | in completion of the require- ' ments of the Yale Graduate School | for the Ph.D. degree. Kenya's Future Fine Big Changes Coming (By The Canadian Press) Manchéster, England, June 4.-- Remarkable progress and change in Xenya ih the next 30 years is predicted by L. S. B. Leakey, Fel- low of St. John's College, Cam- bridge, prominent archeologist and a member of the Government Committee appointed to investi- gate and report upon the Kikuyu Land Tenure in Kenya in 1729. Mr. Leakey was horn in Kenva and knows the colony well. His optimist as to Kenya's future was expressed recently in an address | given in Manchester. He pointed to the fact that Kenya has a wide- | ly distributed settled white popu- lation, and is unlike West Africa { or even Uganda and Tanganyika in this respect, hence its pros- pects are bright. In 30 years, Mr. Leakey 'said, the older generation would have | died out. The sons and daughters | of the progtessive natives of today, some of whom already at the ages of 10 to 12 read and write English and who were receiving | intelligent education, would have | grewn into the leaders of the Af- ricans,, and almost every native would be able to read and write at least his own language, and a growing percentage able to read and understand English. From a handful of pioneers living fn houses with mud walls and thatched roofs, or in bunga- | lows of wood and corrugated iron, congentrating upon the deyvelop- ment of their farms, or their trade, the white non-official com- munity had in 30 years grown in- to a body of people' living a life which in many ways was not very different from that of this coun. try. rhe mistakes that had ' been made in the past over questions of native land possibly could not be altered, but at least care should be taken that these mis- takes were not repeated and that every possible effort was made to improve conditions now. Unless drastic steps were taken to safe- guard native interests and remedy certain evils Kenya would find itself saddled among other things, with a big homeless, landless, poverty-stricken group of natives, possibly forced to slum-like con- ditions on the fringes of the town- ships, .and a very fertile bed for the sowing of seeds of sedition by anti-British agitators. The natives of Kenya needed the sympathetic co-operation of Government, sei- tlers, and missionaries to help them. There seemed to be an idea in this country among a certain sec- that the natives of enya were be- ing deliberately oppressed by the Europeans. That was not true, But what was true was that far more often than not, through ig- norance and misunderstanding, the honest desire of the Europe- ans to help the African resulted in actions which were upjust and unfair, and which caused great hardships and bred distrust. ROCKFELLER; JR. FIGHTS WAGE CUTS President of Colorado Con] cern Voices Rockefeller Attitude Denver, June 4.--John D, Rockefeller, jr.,, Monday threw the weight of his tremendous wealth against wage cutting in industry, an act climaxing 25 years of warfare between the Rockefeller-controlled Colorado Fuel and Iron Company and la- bor, It was taken through Arthur Rogder, one-time dollar watch salesman, whom Rockefeller sent west two years ago to assume the presidency of the C.

BALLOONIT SEEKS 100,000 HEIGHT Piccard's Companion Is Anxious to Double Present Record Berlin, June 4.--Charles Kip- fer, who was Prof. August Pic- card's companion on a balloon flight to the stratosphere, wants to try it again and believes that with a specially constructed bal- loon he could go as high as 100,- 000 feet. He and Professor Pic- ard reached 52,500 feet, "I am convinced," said Kipfer Tuesday, "that a balloon bag with many gas chambers and each regulated from the gondola by a separate valve would rise as high as 100,000 feet without danger or even hardship to the occupants." He explained that the construc_ tion he advocates would permit gradual deflation of the bag and retention of gas in the upper- most chambers which would serve as a sort of parachute in the descent. Successful balloon flights, he said, depend more upon a safe descent than upon a rapid ascent. Dr. Wels, a Berlin X-ray spec- ialist, whose hobby is ballooning, has invited Kipfer to take part in a 24-hour flight in the near future, using an ordinary balloon, DOCTOR HAS VERY UNIQUE PRACTICE (By The Canadian Press) Saint John, N.B., June 4.--The labors of the country doctor have long been proverbial, but in com- parison with the route covered by Dr. H. J. Bergot, the most far- flung rural practice dwindles to the proportions of the community served by a suburban physician. Dr. Bergot is the medical man on the French light cruiser Ville D'ys, which arrived in port re- cently after a call at Halifax. His practice is limited only by the range of the cruiser's wireless, and to many living in isolated districts, or taking fish from the Banks, his skill means life. The Ville D'ys, on summer geo- graphic dnd patrol work in the Grand" Banks district, is now on her ninth trip to Canadian waters. Demands for Dr. Bergot's atten- tions are heavy. Besides attend- ing the crew of 100 and 10 offi- cers, he has charge of the ship's hospital which is the medical cen- tre for some 2,000 French fishing craft. He has held many wireless consultations with both land and seagoing patients, these consulta- tions, however, being carried on only in minor cases. Serious ill- nesses or injuries must be treated by direct contact. On the way here irom Halifax, the doctor's services were requir- ed in the Bay of Fundy, when the skipper of a trawler was given at- tention. Each year since 1922 the Valle D'ys has sailed forth for the Greenland and Newfoundland fishing banks, where she carries on a survey of aquatic conditions in those districts, as well as act- ing as floating hospital, court of arbitration and general relief ves- sel. Charts are prepared and taken back each fall to France and later sent out to other nations by the Geographic Office. Few court cases are handled. Only one court was held iast year, and this season no disputes have been submitted for arbitration, looking bad, oid man," said an acquaintance to Browne. 'What's the trouble?"
