The la- cies had made big preparations and were ready to carry out their part for a big crowd, but the rain discouraged many from at- tending. However, they made around two hundred and fifty dol- lars. It is the first time in ten years that the weather has been unsuitable for the garden party. A number of Orangemen from here attended the parade held in Cobourg on Saturday. Among them being Mr. Edward Nesbitt, of Port Perry, who is 96 years of age and has been an Orangeman for 80 years.

China holds within its popula- tion 400,000,000, the world's last great undeveloped market. The nations of the earth are fighting with 1 credit - terms, and with cut throat competition for this market. And yet Canada is the only country which can show that it has multiplied by ten its volume of exports to China dur- ing the decade ending with 1929. It holds a psychological superior- ity over the other nations in that the Chinese are perhaps more friendly to Canada than to any other country. This is the message brought to the Dominion by Col. L. M. Cos- grave, Canadian trade commis- gioner to China, who for the past eight years has advised Canadian exporters on how to sell thelr goods. Colonel Cosgrave is now making a tour of Canada to con- sult with Canadian manufactur- ers who wish to know of market possibilities in China, He is reg- istered at the Windsor Hotel, and from July 13 to 24 will be at the offices of the Montreal Board of Trade to answer inquiries. Contacts Necessary "There are. two: things most important to the Canadian manu- facturer who wishes to trade with China," declared Colonel Cos- grave to The Star. "Firstly, bus- iness contacts in China must be built up by an executive of the firm wishing to export. No un- derlying will do because the China trade is unlike that of any other country. Goods may have to be packed. specially. La- bels and containers may have to be changed in order to avoid lo- cal superstitions, Credit terms often differ. As a result it is es- sential that a man who can make cecisions call on the Chinese traders. The second important thing is thay advertising should be car- ried on through firms already es- tabilgshed in China,' he continued. "No people respond as readily as the Chinese, but the meanings of characters and even pictures of animals, and colors used, differ in different provinces, Only a firm on the ground can make sure that foreign advertising really serves its purpose." Foundations Laid Excellent work in surveying the conditions under which trade should be developed was accom- plished by the Canadian Cham- ber of Commerce delegation to the Orient, which was held last year by John M, Irmie, of Ed- monton, Alta., in the opinion of Colanel Cosgrave. Further foan- dations for trade were laid by Hon, Herbert Marler, Canadas minister to Japan. What is now needed is the actual concentra. tion of Canadian executives upon the Chinese markets, said Colonel Cosgrave. A trade mission prepared to discuss terms and and to guaran- tee the filling of special orders toured China for six months last year, on behalt of German indus- try, which was represented by eight men, each nominated by a "kartel" or manufacturing trust. It took orders of close on $30,- 000,000 from poverty stricken China. "We Canadians oan do equal- ly as well," said Colonel Cosgrave "and indeed in ¢hyse instances where our business men have gone to the Chinese merchant houses, they have been amply re- warded." : Flour Exported "Canada's greatest export to China has up to the present heen wheat flour, of which the equiv- alent of 20,000,000 bushels of grain were sold In 1929. During the past ccrop year, however, Cenada's sales of flour have dropped. Australia has taken the Domiuion's place in the Ori- ental flour trade. "But this is only a temporary condition," said Colonel Cosgrave. "It is due to the fact that Aus- tralian currency has depreciated by thirty per cent. Their wheat is therefore much cheaper than Canadian wheat, Yet this cannot continue to be the case, and in any event the Chinese mil- lers have already discovered that Australian wheat is not as strong as even the low grades of Can- adian wheat and that therefore, a much larger quantity must be had for blending with the native grain, They have discovered that it was false economy to buy Aus- tralian wheat and next year we should be able to sell as much to them as ever hefore." Lumber Manufactures In spite of the falling value of silver, lumber manufacturers from the British CoMimbia coast have concentrated, upon selling tn China, and as a result lumber sales which measured 10 million bourd feet three years ago, will probably reach 50 million, this year according to the trades com- missioner. Similarly excellent sales have havebeen made during the past year by two manufacturers of wall board, who have indeed se- cured as large orders for their products as was given to much larger companies manufacturing similar board in the United States. : The Nationalist government is now firmly established in China, in the opinion of Colonel Cos- grave, and the war-riven ampire is gradually coming to a' condl- tion of peace. When order is ful- ty restored, and the government | has been able to build the ambi- || tious system of roads and rail- ways already on paper, China will de Jroperly opened to foreign rade. or : Canadian Advantage "We have a great advantage over most of the other manufac- turing nations in that Canads has never seized portions of China to fmplant trading posts. Cana bes not billions of dollars invest. ed in China, with goldiers and battleships always ready to pounce upon China," i "As a result, the Chinese like ds better than they do most er nations. They owe us nota'ng. They know that we passed some 30 years ago through a period of development which they are now trying to bring about in their own country. They ask us for advice on their own prahlems, knowing that we profited bv the ux istakes of other countries, and wishing to avoid the mistakes which we made." Actually Colonel Cosgrave hus supplied the Nationalist Movern- ment with copies of the Canadian Insurance Act,, with details te- gerding the administration 0° ex- perimental farms, the relation between the government and the Capadian National Railways znd the manner in which the Capa- dian Customs service operates, Natio "One must admire the great work being accomplished by the Nationalist Government in China," said Col. Cosgrave. "Here ip Canada the news of China pitblished in the papers, usually tells of some new war, Or epi sode of banditry. You never hear of the great efforts to es- teblish a nation-wide educational scheme; to establish a modified fcrm of Mandarin as the chief tongue of China, so that native of different provinces may under. stand one another." There is no likelihood, accord- ing to Colonel Cosgrave, that Communism will ever flourish in China. The peasant farmer, form- ing the bulk of the population is too closely attached to the soil to ever think of sharing his plot of land with others. Soviet Russia at present is ex- porting many cheap manufactur- od goods to northern China and Manchuria. These, according to Colonel Cosgrave, constitute grave competition to many old exporting countries. But the tremendous railway haul to which a long water voyage must he added before South China is reached, makes it impossible for Russian goods to compete in the resell" large buying centres of the Orient. BREATHE PROPERLY ADVICE OF SINGER Toronto, July 18.--We all breathe. And this fact, obvious though it may be, needs a deal of emphasizing. Breath! Think of it. One, two minutes without it and we die. Yet until we are fighting for breath few of us ever realize that breathing is the most important thing we do from the first mo- ment of existence. Why, then, should it be the most neglected? asks Madame Clara Novello Davies in this article in a recent issue of Tit-Bits, What I am ahout to say con- cerns everyone--the baby, the old man, the young woman, the child, the navvy, the typist, the millionaire, the pauper, and the duchess. Each can take heed. Various types of throat, chest, and lung troubles can be traced to incorrect breathing. But apart from actual disease, how can we expect to enjoy that sense of radiant health and well-being that everyone craves if the very first and most vital function of life is not carried out naturally and correctly? So-called civilization creed that, although correctly we almost invariably devleop the harmful habit of breathing from the upper chest as we grow older. Watch a baby or a bird. Neither expands its chest in breathing. And for a good reason. It isn't natural. The natural and beneficial way to breathe is from the diaphragm, which was put there for that pur- pose. I found this out many years ago, and attribute the somewhat remarkable vitality I still possess at the age of seventy entirely to that discovery. At the (instigation of Mr. George Lansbury, to whose no- tice a friend recently brought my methods, I am conducting some experimental classes in the East- end of London to demonstrate the correct art of breathing to the people who are most in need of advice--and especially to their children. I was amazed at the response has de- we start and enthusiasm shown at the tirst of these meetings only a few weeks ago. After some prelimin- ary instruction I had a crowd of some hundreds intelligently prac- tising the exercises as if they had been used to them all their lives. Five minutes a day devoted whole-heartedly to the subject of breathing can work wonders. In less than a week one is bound to feel the effects. Nothing could be simpler if you will only do it. Forget that you have a chest at all, Don't use it, Don't use your throat ex- cept merely as an air passage. Stand up straight with the tips of your fingers upon the diaph- ragm--that is just below the part where the chest bone ends. Hiss out the breath through the mouth, Stand with your toes contract- ed as though you were trying to grip the floor with them. Then purse out your lips and breathe in hard through the nose. But let your breath go right past the upper chest as if it were not there. Inhale all the breath you can admit without straining into the part just below the chest, pushing out the diaphragm mus- cles on to the fingertips in the process. Remember, neck, throat, and upper chest must be com- pletely relaxed, Concentrate on the passage of your breath all the time, Imagine you are drawing it right up from the floor by way of your feet and legs. The breathing itself, how- ever, must be in and out against the finger-tips. Inhale and exhale in this way half-a-dozen times You will get a feeling of ex- hilaration which is unmistakable. Breath, you will discover, is in- deed life, Tonal Physicals, the name'I have given to my special method of combining the breath with the voice, entalls singing as well, The use of the voice be- comes an enormous help in cor- rect breahting, and I always in- sist on it in my classes, Still, not everyone can he persuaded to sing, though I do assert -that everyone can sing if they know how, In any case everyone who wants to do so can breathe cor- rectly, and I think the above simple exercise might well be supplemented by a process that forms an important part of the Tonal Physicals. That is the Breath Lock. When you have in- haled to your full capacity, though always without strain, "lock" the breath by allowing the upper part of the body, the chest, and shoulders, to drop on to your breath, Simply droop and relax so that the breath becomes for the time imprisoned. Hold this position for a few second and then hiss out the breath once more, The beauty of mere breathing exercises lies in the fact that they can be practised anywhere, in bus or train or tram' in an ordinary sitting posture, with not a soul the wiser, That walk from the bus to the office might well be enlivened by inhaling for six steps, locking the breath for two or three, and then breathing out for the next six. You may extend this by seeing how far you can go without "unlocking." Practice, and persuade the children of your household to practise--and in time both you and they will again breathe as you were born to breathe, And that means new life.

INSTALMENT 21 | Edith and Gall had the Wilcox | cottage a¢ Carmel for two dreamy | August weeks, reveling in the at- | mosphere of pines, sea air, golden | dunes and charming friendly in- formal neighbors. They did their marketing in the rambling little main street every morning, laugh- ing and gossiping as they wander- ed to and fro along the plank side- walks Afterward they finished the play-housekeeping that was all the Wileox cabin demanded and took a picnic lunch and the inevitable books down to the shore There on the sun-warmed rocks they idled for hours, dreaming, reading, talking, dozing. The sea crept in to their feet and fretted itself into lace over the stones; its deep surging rush and boom was the undertone to all the other noises of the world--gulls' often at night there was something to do in the community theatre, or 8 terrace supper of salad and fruit fn the house of some girls like themselves, with moonlight and good talk to follow. Young teachers, girl doctors, scientists, all the world of young eager working woman. hood went to Carmel for vacation days. These were peaceful days, defin- {itely happy days.

Everything last year was--oh, horrid!" Edith mused aloud. "I never saw myself, at tweniy- five, content to be a Clippersviile old maid," Gail sald as if herself, as if thinking aloud. Edith was silent a minute, "You don't have to be a Clippersville old maid, Gail," she said then lightly, but with a touch of pain in her voice, "Mary Rumbold told me you 'were the most popular girl in town, Gall" "I presume in a perfectly res- pectable way I am," she admitted without enthusiasm. "After the jazz age, the nicer type of man seems to look about for my sort of girl. 'I've had my fun with the petters' he says, 'now I'll find some girl about whom there's never been 8 whisper.'" "Ah, don't be bitter, dearest!" Edith said distressedly in the sil- ence. "I don't think I'm bitter, Ede. But somehow--well, at twenty it would have driven me out of my senses with joy to have two or three of Clippersville's rising young citizens want me. But now it just cinated." "Was it Van, Gail?" They had been to the edges of this ground before, many many times. But in the more than two years since the fatal Christmas night that had ended one phase of the Lawrences' life forever, Edith had not quite dared this much. "Wes, partly, I suppose" Gail now answered simply. "You did care for him, Gall?" "No," she said thoughtfully. "He wasn't the sort of boy for whom one cared. But I was sick of Clip- persville and poverty and dish washing, and when Van came along I sort of lost my bearings. f though you could force your-- well, your fate. Grasp what you wanted. I did everything he wanted me to do, went about with those 't natural en- ough, Gail, for a your age!" "Oh, it was natural enough.

Meanwhile the family was not to say anything about it. jnd Hig ever theirs affectionately, | After that the long months had spun themselves to a year, to two | years, to more, and there had come 'no other word.

So Clippersville dismissed Ariel {and Dick as tely solyed pro- {plems; Edith and Phil philosophiz- led about having the difficult young- est member of the family settled, 'and it was only in Gail's heart that pain and the sense of loss lived on. | When Phil, only a few weeks be- ifore these happy holidays at Car- mel, had told his sisters that some- | time this summer he was to vo married to Lily Cass, widowed now, it was the usually quiet Edith who broke into tears, protest and plead- ing, and the usually impetuous and Iproud Gail who said gently: { "If you love her, Phil--Ede and I {wouldn't want any one who--who {loved any one, really truly loved her, to be unhappy." "Gail, you're so sweet!" Phil, ta- {ken unawares and completely dis- larmed, had said gratefully. "No; it's just that--just that I think any of us that can, ought to be happy," Gail had faltered 'with filling eyes. "So that's the next thing we have to face!"
