far outxeaches all philosophy time with caressing touch about them weaves the silverthreaded fairy shawl of age while all the echoes to four of her ave children ma perkins gave care substantial food arid maternal affection but only to one did- she give- selfdenial dainty extras and adoration this fifth was pansy she had been one of those plump pink and white babies that stran gers stop to admire on the street ad now at the age of nineteen she was still fair with yellow halra common type of prettiness but to ma she wan a being set apart no matter what time pansy came home ma would be waiting with a hot bedtime turick it was bi brightest hour in mas long weary day pansy would sip hot cocoa and wax confidential she would tell ma all about the college youths she knew the make of cars they had and the compliments they paid her most often she mentioned ted gladstone and his red roadster and hope flamed high in mas breast he was the big steel mans son ma would smile contentedly fof the long lean years would soon be over and pansy would soon nave a beautiful borne of her own and the other children would have their chance ma had known from the time that pansy lay dimpling in her cradle that pansy was to marry money how could it be otherwise with her prettiness her popularity and all the smart clothes that ma had copied so laboriously from fashion books ma perkins was hanging out the monday wash when mrs malley leaned confidentially across the rail ing of her back piazza what do you make of it mrs perkins make of what asked ma your pansy and my billie what about pansy it

railway engineers are oarefuuy trained in the laws of safety says an editorial in the canadian national magsslne they do everything in then- power to avoid accidents they cannot however swerve their engine from the steel rails on which it must operate and this fact the motorist seems to overlook warning bells and lights watchmens flags and crossing gates give notice of the approach of trains yet there are far more acci dents caused by automobiles crashing into the side of trains than by trains striking automobiles it is here that the cooperatldn of the motorist is required- in one province quebec the law requires that every vehicle come to a full stop- before crossing a railway track the observance of the law wouktprevent many accidents it would decrease the crop of grey hairs in the heads of many railroad engin eers and in same cases would prob- wyiin truth- wnrfclng days but it is a law which can only be success ful through the cooperation of the motorist and if one is to judge by actual experiences on the highway such cooperation is the exception rather than the rule with another motoring season get ting well under way it is perhaps tim ely to stress the importance of safety first at all times time is important but the attempt to save a few seconds in elapsed time- when one is driving a motor car may be a matter of life and death in more ways than one beating the train may seem like thrilling sport to some drivers but it is the cause of most crossing acci dents with their attendant wastage of human life and property the railways preach and practice safety at all times and train their employees along these lines they cannot train the motorist to whom the highway is the free and open road they can and do however ask his cooperation in their attempt to reduce the accident toll as far as pos sible the careful motorist exercises special caution whenever he ap- preaches a railroad crossing may his tribe increase l0n6 distance moving moving transport or

blind dear god i pray that somewhere we shall find him on the way the official story of canadas part in the great war probably wont be told until 198003 years after the lose of the war and while it is going to take- between 30000000 and 40000000 words to tell of the united states part in the war it is estimated that canadas official history will con tain only 5000000 words national defence department offici als began in 1921 to compile the his tory and one volume concerning tbs snedleal- services had been published and the first of eight general volumes is being bound between 1931 arid

grand- nother mrs perkins stiffened and two bright spots glowed on her thin cheeks youve been having pipe dreams mrs malley its just the nice way pansy has with every one being as you opened the sub ject i dont mind saying that i think she shows some favor to that young gladstone you know his fa ther the big steel man yes i know his people and a sporty bunch they are his father married a girl from the chorus if i had a daughter mrs perkins id be doing my best to keep her away from gladstone and his like they aint fit company for any young girl soiir grapes muttered mo perkins as she gathered up her pins and clothes basket and disappeared quickly through the screen door ma gave scant thought to mrs malleys implication about young gladstone what worried her was the absurdity of coupling pansys name with her billtes however that night the red roadster was parked before the door and mas heart sang to the accompaniment of the sewing machine she amused herself picturing the befitting bridal gown for the daughterinlaw erf gladstone the big steel man it was pansy herself who broke the news she came in earlier than usual one night and ma hastened to put on the kettle pansy dear you just missed young gladstone he called five minutes after you left say can him next time ma im through with that bunch for good ma perkins was staggered what do you mean through i know youll

last night i hope youll forgive the way 1 spoke that day but its hard to give your daughter to anybodys son mrs malley was anxious to con ciliate sure i know how it is aint 1 a mother myself wheat the standby canada ranks laat as a supplier of wheat to italy partly owing to cana dian prices being highest and partly because imports from european coun tries were affected through clearings that is on credit at the same time canadian wheat in 1937 showed its importance entry into italy of can adas products is impeded by prohi bitive tariffs exchange i restrictions and quota restrictions while italian products entering canada enjoy most- favoured nation treatment despite these conditions- the balance of trade is stlu in favour of canada mainly due to shipments of wheat which in 1937 accounted for a little more than 50 per cent of the imports from can ada and were valued at 31708000 lire are you sure your eyes see corredly have you seen tut new rimless mounting no screws to loosen
