Dr. Whittaker of Blackstock, The wardens of Sunderland, Beaver- ton and Cannington presented the keys of the church to Rev. P. C Howard, HOMECOMING One stepped into his house and lo, The very wall began to glow! The baby heard his voice and shook The pages of his picture book, And tried to clamber from his chair Delightedly to greet him there. Dowastalrs the older children ran To welcome him as children can, The mother smiled his face to see, The dog got up and barked in glee, Another crossed his threshold o'er, The children heard the closing door And stopped their laughter and their play, The dog got up and moved away. The mother saw his frown and sighed, The very walls seemed terrified, And everything about the place Mirrored the harshness in his face, That house grew strangely cold within As he at eve came frowning in. Lord, let it be my way at night, Never their laughter to affright, When I come home at last from town May I put all my burdens down And never fling on them who wait The care I bear, however great, What Py day bas used me I would 'not have these walls grow still Nor carry so much gloom about That when I enter, joy goes oyt.

All numbers were Salvation Army compositions, Ann Arbor, Mich.--Out of the 26 known moons in the sun's family, our own is the only thoroughly decorous one with no jazz motions in space in annual flight around the sun, This "unique" absence of the modern tempo was reported by R. M. Petric of the University of Michigan, in a mathematical treat- ise. His calculations show that our moon "is in a class of its own." All moons have two motions, one their orbits around their planets and the other course in space which they describe while being dragged around the sun by their respective worlds, Analyzing the resulting path of the earth's satellite, Mr. Petrie finds that it is always concave with respect to the sun. In a diagram the moon's annual course would look like the curvature of an egg shell, with the yolk representing the sun. Any section of this path whatever would be curved away from the sun, like any fragment Moon is Less Jazzy Than Others 'Says Professor of Mathematics broken from the egg shell. All other moons do anything from mild airplane-like glides toward the sun, to real nose dives and even loop-the-loops. Ganymede, one of Jupiter's moons, does a very tight little loop. Callistro, another of Jupiter's satellites, makes a big loop shaped like writing in space a gigantic letter "S." All the other moons belong to planets farther from the sun than earth; planets whose paths around the sun are less sharply curved than earth's, Furthermore some of these satellites make immensely larger circles in travelling about their respective worlds, The other moons are distributed as follows: To Mars two, to Jupi- ter and to Saturn nine cach, to Uranus, four and to Neptune one. Venus, Mercury and Pluto alone have no known moons. Pluto is so distant that if he has a moon present telescopes probably are not sufficiently powerful to detect it, Winnipeg~In a big way the Maritimes ports of Eastern Canada are appealing for a share of the winter grain exports. It is a "Can- ada first" movement that has at- tracted much attention in the West since the Halifax delegation visited Winnipeg, and explained their views to the Grain Exchange mem- bers. Halifax thinks that, when the St. Lawrence is closed by ice, the Can- adian grain trade can make the same use of the Maritime ports of the Dominion that for ten years they have been making of Van- couver and Prince Rupert. - Admit- tedly, in season, the most economi- cal route to get grain out of the West to foreign markets is down the lakes, through Montreal and, for the overflow, through Buffalo and the American Atlantic ports. But every winter there is from sixty to seventy five million bushels kept in storage at the Canadian lake head. Some is moved eastward by rail, as high as 24,000,000 bushels in 1922, but usually storage is paid on this volume at the lake head until the lakes are open. It costs more money, at least a fourth more to move grain by the rail than by water. But the enormous American route profits by this condition, One- half of Tanada ecastern exports grain gets down through Buffalo, most of it before navigation closes. The grain is "spotted" at New York, Portland, Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore in huge quantities, and after the St. Lawrence is closed the and it has taken all we've got to get the handle off without break- ing the cup."

Maritimes Seek Larger Volume Canadian Winter Wheat Move Canadian grain eastward can, under the present system, be moved over- seas only through alien ports. The spectacle is witnessed fre- quently, Col. E. C, Phinney, chair- man of the Halifax Harbor board, explained to the exporters here, of a ship from New York carrying a hundred thousand bushels of Can- adian grain, stopping at Halifax to take on miscellaneous cargo. Out of New York port last year moved 57,000,000 of grain overseas, and of this quantity 52,000 was Canadian productions, he maritime business men want to see, at least a part of the 130,- 000,000 bushels of Canadian grain annually moved through the States for export, sent out through Hali- fax, Sidney. and St. John, These ports are prepared to handle eight or ten million bushels right now and will increase their storage as the business improves, It will not de- prive a single Canadian port of the routes now in operation of a bushel of grain and will add just that much more to the earnings of the Canadian railways and allied indus- tries, Of the cost of getting a bushel of grain from the prairies to Liverpool, 34%; cents, all but 4% cents approximately is absorbed in getting it to tide water Vancouver is the only other all winter port and that route is handling annually its full capacity, HINTS ON CLOTHES GIVEN TO TOURISTS Ship's Purser Suggests Wardrobe For Tour Around World Montreal.--Hints on what clothes are necessary on a world cruise were given by T, H. Cullum, purser of the Cunard liner Franconia, who is in Montreal on his way to New York to rejoin his ship to begin his s.venth world tour. Many people imagine that the heat experienced. during a world cruise must be terrific, but Mr. Cul- lum claims that he has never felt as much discomfort anywhere in all his travels as he has experienced in New York City during typically hot American summer weather, Leaving New York on a frozen January day, the cruise liner will soon run into the Gulf Stream, heading for mild Madeira, Throughout January, the liner will cruise the warm Mediter- ranean where light clothes are all that are needed. The hottest part of the voyage is between Suez and Manilla, People begin to wear whites in the Red Sea Evening clothes are of the lightest material. The men wear a sort of white mess jacket with a Kamer- band around the waist, and ordinary evening dress trousers. Many pass. engers purchase their tropical kit in Bombay where prices are very low. I'hey have themselves measured when the ship arrives and, when their Indian tour of nine days con- cludes at Bombay again, their cluth- es are ready waiting for them. Palm Beach clothes, silks, and tropical cottons are to be had very cheaply all over the East, particularly in Japan and China, Heavy Clothing Fairly heavy tweeds, a heavy overcoat, and raincoat are also nec- essary, for visits to hilly districts in Japan and India, and for crossing the Atlantic and Pacific, in some parts. "Many people think that a world cruise is expensive, but it is often much cheaper to use a liner for five months as a palatial home, see the world in style, and live like a king, than to stay home," he said. "Lots of people spend far more than the minimum fare of $1750 in five months at home in America," de- clared Mr. Cullum, "Extra expens- es, if one is moderate in one's shop- ping, need not exceed $500, but everything depends on one's tastes. One of my passengers has been round the world six times, another four times, and several have done it twice or three times. Last vear, every passenger at my table had heen around the world with us be- fore." Desnite the current troubles in Manchuria, arrangements are being made as usual for the entertain- ment of the Cunarder world cruise nassengers in the Chinese capital next spring, Mr. Cullum said He nid enthusiastic tribute to the ex- cellence of chinese railways, comfort an trains, cond cuisine in the din- in~ears and efficiency of train oper- ation, Betty, who shares her father's «nthusiarr for motoring, was lis- tening to her nurse relating a Bible story.
