Finally, however, the novelist con- sented and the cameras clicked mer- rily as he stepped into the plane carrying what airport attaches pro- claimed a new note in the well dressed aerial passenger's equip- ment; a heavy gold-headed cane, Old Scows Serve Good Purpose in Supplying Wood for Veterans Montreal --~Ancient scows which once were drawn through the canals of this province and the New Eng- land States, now. of no further ser- vice, are being put to good use, A number of these vessels, together with a quantity of broken- up lum- ber, have been given to the Army and Navy Veterans in Canada, Mon- treal Unit No, 14, by the Montreal Harbor Commissioners, and are be ing turned into firewood for the families of needy and unemployed ex-service men, At 'least 300 cords of good fire~ wood will be obtained from the Harbor Commissioners' donation, W. L. Hillary, secretary-treasurer of the unit, said today. The wood is at a wharf on Poupart street near Frontenac street, where it was con= veyed by Harbor Commission scows. A fleet of seven trucks is distribut= ing the wood to needy families of ex-servicemen, and the men them- selves, under R. M. Robertson and J. Fiske, are cutting it up, "The wood will be a Godsend, to the men," Mr, Hillary said, "as many of them with families are without firewood, and the weather is beginning to get cold, Of course, many of them are on the job cutting up their share themselves, Any who may be ill at this time, are sure of getting their share, however, ds cas- es of this nature are being looked after by those in charge of the work." Mr. Hillary did not know whether the Harbor Commissioners' gift would be repeated in the near fu- ture but said he hoped for further donations from other bodies, British Gold Suspension Causes Big Revival in Cotton Industry Manchester, Eng, -- Increased activity is reported in many Lan- cashire and Yorkshire cotton mills as a result of an influx of orders since the gold standard was suspended, Mills, in which the spindles had long been silent are now humming with activity, executing rush or. ders, while the nearby Yorkshire district cotton doubling mills are working overtime, One large mill at Rochdale has started a night shift to All its ders and at Hasllugden another cotton mill will operate on a 055. hour week instead of the usual 18 Trade union officials have ob- jected to the overtime work, but the workers, it is sald, are gener ally glad to earn the extra money, The sudden business pickup is attributed to suspension of the gold standard inasmuch as the drop*in the value of the pound sterling against other world cur rencies amounts virtually to a re. duction in the price of manufac: tured goods, making Great Brit. ain a good country in which to uy. CLAIMS GIRLS ARE GREATER PROBLEM THAN ARE BOYS Educational Official Makes This Claim as Result of Experience Toronto.~--*Girls certainly pre- sent a greater problem than boys," said T. J.

A privately financed expedition from the United States will be established at Fort Con- ger on Lady Franklin Bay, only 600 miles from the pole, Mr, Patterson recently outlined the work of the Canadian parti- cipation to a local newspaper, Methods of Operation "At Chesterfield Inlet," he tad, "we will have the most modern instruments available for magnetic studies in the Arctic regions, This point will be the nearest of the stations to the magnetic pole, and thus will be one of the most ctrategic to be yecenpled during the second polar ear Here will be measuyed and tudied the magnetic elements of Lorizontal and vertical force, and the deviation from the true north of the magnetic needle, all w'th self-recording instruments which will provide a continuous 1ecord of the elements involved, "The strictly meteorological nrogramme to be followed at Chesterfield Inlet will {include regular observations of pressure, temperature, humidity, clouds, rain and wind direction and vel- ceity, the last hy sending up pilot kalloons for observation through snecially constructed telescopes, In addition this station will make simple observations of the Aurora Rorealls, and the frequency of ~urrents will also be studied. "The outpost at Coppermine will have a staff of four men, as at Chesterfield, but will special- fze In the study of meteorology and the manifestations of the Aurora. Especially Interesting work will be carried on at Cop- permine in an offort to determing the actus! height of the Aurora above the earth, an item of in- formation whick will be of tre- mendous value In working out the causes of the Aurora, its na- |. ture, effect and extent, Its pro- pagation apd relation to the sun will be given particular atten tion, as well as its effect upon magnetic elements, Measure Height of Aurora "The height of the Aurora will be measured by stationing cameras at points 15 or 20 miles apart. With the aid of ra- dio or telephone communication, the cameras will be exposed gim- ultaneously, By noting the po- sition of the stars shown in the vhotograph and with the help of previous scientific knowledge, it will be possible to work out from these photos the actual extent of the Aurora, "Meteorological work at Cop- vermine will consist of full sur- face observations and daily re- leases of pilot balloons for wind recordings, During the Winter, special ascents will be directed of balloons carrying a meteoro- graph, This device, designed in our Toronto workshop, is a sim- ple signalling device by which every variation of temperature of three degrees up or down, is an- tomatically signalled to watchers on the ground by flashing lights on the device, In this way it is noseible to take periodic readings of temperature variations in the upper strata of the atmosphere with exceptional accuracy, furn- 'shing information regarded as of the utmost importance in meteor- elogleal study, Extent of Ozone "It Is also hoped to 'measure at Coppermine at regular intervals through the year of observation the amount of ozone in the at- mosphere and how far the ozone helt extends from the earth, clearing up considerable of the uncertainty now prevailing as to the variation of oozne over the surface of the globe, "Most significant experiments will he made at Coppermine in noting the ability. of the radio received there to get pre-arrang- eld signals which will be sent out at stated times from the United States Naval Ohservatory at Ar- lington, from Bordeaux, France and a station at Pontolse-sur- Nise, France, "At Meanock, north of Edmon- ton, the studies of magnetic var- fation being regularly carried on wil! be supplemented by the special polar year observations of an extra man or two, and the use of special equipment, "Full and systematic observa- tions in all folds will be made by the official United States Expe- dition, which will locate at Falr- hanks, Alaska, and perhaps It ghould be emphasized that un- usually full observations of a special nature will he made throughout the polar year at the regular . meteorological stations in all the countries participating in confprmity with the pro- gramme laid down by the Inter- national Polar Year Commis- clon."
