The breed of my little dog is a fox- terrier and he is about one foot six Inches in height. He is all white from tail to head and he is three years old. He is a good worker and can pull me around in the Sleigh and he can also hunt cattle and he is not a bad watch-dog for a little pup. My little dog cannot perform any trick?, but I love him just the same. I like my dog because he and I are the very best of pals and he will do any- thing for me. My dog is the father of six lovely pups. My brother, who is twenty- three, has one of his little daughters. Ronald Sage's Essay "Skippy" Skippy is a collie. Although he lays no claim to being a thoroughbred, it is easily seen that he is a very fine speci- men of his race. To sy the least, Skippy is hand- Some. He has a very flue coat of long boys of Scout age. If you are unable to join an ordinary Scout Troop, and are between the ages of 12-13 inclusive, why not be a Lone Scout?

Sunday School Lesson American Traffic System Faiis to Please Paris Paris First experiments conduct- ed ia Paris with New York's system of synchronized traffic regulation re- sulted in a complete traffic jam in exactly twenty minutes. But Pre- \ feet of Police Jean Chiap-pe, who superintended the test is not con- i vlnced that the system is impractical, j He thinks that It will work better when the public has been accustom- ed to it. The experiment was tried in the most congested district of Paris, be- tween the Fortes Saint Martin and Saint Denis, and where the Boule- vard Sebastopol crosses the Grands Boulevards. Electric signals mere installed so that when traffic was stopped on the Grands Boulevards, | that from the Porte Saint Denis and Porte Saint Martin entered simulta- neously. A few seconds later ihe cross traffic from the Boulevard Sebastopol was also admitted auto- matically. Then automatically all transverse streets were closed by the signal's and traffic over four blocks on the Grands Boulevards was kept moving for three minutes. For a short time it seemed as thoagh the system was working prop- erly without the interference of the traffic police, but soon confusion de- veloped and in twenty minutes cir- culation was completely stopped, with cars unable to move in any direction. It took the police half an hour to restore order under the old billy club system ot direction. Other experiments will be tried and if they attain the results Mr. Chiappe desires, the entire Grand Boulevard system from the Church of the Madeleine to the Place d e la The men of '.

And they ax sure to be infested if they run with. other infested horse*. Moat of the horses that we see killed for fox meat are worm Infested to some decree. The colt being particularly susceotible to worm infestation, during' the first few months of its life, should be given some protection against these pests, which may become serious enough to causa death of the colt. The start should be made with the brood mare and the other horses: treat these or have them treated with a suitable worm expeller. This done the source of infection will be cut off and the pas- tures will be relatively safe for the colts when they arrive. Infection takes piace through wormy horsee scattering the worm eggs over the pas- ture field in the faeces, so if the mare is free of worms the owner will have little to worry about, and the colt will well and be free from attacks of verminous colic. Verminous colic is serious and may cause the death of the colt. Better prevent worm infes- tation, so that the colta will not ex- perience this trouble. The colt that is free of worms and hot grubs is mor likely to thrive and grow well than the neglected colt that depends oa no management at all. Change the pas- ture ground frequently during the sum- mer, keep them away from wormy horses, and have them treated with a carbon disulphide capsule when they come into winter quarters.

Alttrt 1 Trade and the Empire . . By Stanley Baldwin One of the interesting results al- ready of our departure from the free trade policy has been a certain influx of foreign manufacturing busi- ness. That tendency has been rath- er exaggerated in the press, but it is a real movement, and I would re- mind you that we in England have owed a good deal in the past to soma of those important'.ons of new aianu- facturtj. We brought weaving, a typically British industry today, from the Flemings. It was the French Hugue nots who taught us how to make silk; and so it is today that we flnd the toymaker from Nuremberg, the clockmakers from the Black Coun- try; the perfumery and toilet acces- sories made in Paris are coming over to be made in this country, and alao the finest kinds of ladles' stockings from Saxony. Those are industries That will be valuable to us because they will not only provide work to meet the de- mands ot our own customer* at home but they will broaden our equipment for competitive orders coining from abroad, and increasing. I hope, our exports and trade. Perhaps the most Important thing is this, that at last there are no more arguments about whether a tariff Is a good thing or a bad.
