detracting from the support of the church is a serious question the cost of motoring grows greater every week yet the money for ft seems to be forthcoming 1 just how so many thousands of men in supposedly moderate circumstances have been able all of a sudden to buy automobiles is a puzzle to philosophers it equals the- puzzle of how so many thousands of men who never do anything manage to live there must be some philosophy of life that the wisest of us have never been able to jearn but which is as plain as a b c to the classes who practice it we envy no man his motor car we would not if we could deprive him of the pride and joy of being its owner they say that the fascination of motor ing becomes with some a veritable craze so that no other subject is discussed morning or evening week days or sun days just the auto and where to go many autos are used to carry people to churchr butthrlstjcaroely a doubt that many more carry people anywhere else but to church it is to be feared also that in in stances not a few very little money is left for the church after the expensestrr motoring are met people are going fast the world is tar wheels many- preachers- whoown autos are trying to keep up with the crowd and we hope they will succeed in doing it without getting hurt them selves among others 1 because science has demonstrated the harmful effects of alcohol on the human organism even when taken only in small quantities 2 because it has been shown to be an economic waste he cited the fact that in ontario during 1931 one of the great oppression years a million dollars a week was regularly spent on liquor nearly all of it bought through government stores also that with well over 400000 permits the average expenditure wasjtjo per month 3 because the llqupr trarhchas al ways been a corrupting influence in public- life he repudiated the accusa tion sometimes recklessly made that our governments in canada had all been corrupted by it trut pointed to the famous customs probe of a few years ago as ample evidence of its demoralizing operations 4 because prohibition in the strict sense had never been really tried yd canada except as a brief war measure that it was weakened by divided juris diction that the manufacture was per mitted and that it was discredited not on its record but by the powerful press and propaganda influences of its bitter enemies 5- that whatever the final solution was it was not government sale with its steadily mounting- record of uquor consumption and alf the crimes that arise therefrom believers in prohibition he said must be

centrates hay of good quality can be produced here and the proper handling of this crop is necessary to ensure saving the most expensive food nutrient it con tains namely protein t the dominion experimental farm at nappan nova scotia in 1930 undertook to determine the value if any in cut ting hay early samples of clover timothy and couch were cut in july and similar samples from adjacent areas were taken a month later these were analyzed by the dominion chemist at ottawa the results of these analyses showed thaltheearlycut clover contained 18 per cent more protein and 606 per cent less fibre than the late cut this in spite of the fact that considerable second growth was contained in the late cutting timothy showed a- loss in protein of 17 per cent and a gain in fibre of 043 per cent while couch lost 105 per cent protein and gained 034 per cent in fibre when cut in august as compared with july similar cuttings were made in 1931 but the jmalyses are not yet available however these results are very similar to those reported from other sources for example henry and morrison report analyses for timothy early cut in bloom and late cut nearly ripe and show the latter to be 11 per cent lower in protein and 12 per cent higher in fibre on the basis of a loss of 107 per cent this means a loss of 34 pounds of protein in every ton at a value of 5 cents per pound the present cost using choice cottonseed meal as a basis it means that each ton of hay cut in july is on the average worth f 170 per ton more in feeding value than the average hay cut in august in other words the it

condition let this be lowering the feed bills and still keep the a slogan to be adopted by all during the coming season some hard concentrated and collective thinking to discover the way to restore their cause to public favor they must be willing to adopt thorough and far- reaching measures and follow them up as patiently and persistently as may be necessary possibly through a long period of years they must become better stra tegists in the conduct of their campaigns and above all press the programme of the education of the children and young people on the one hand and public opinion on the other they should not again attempt to apply the coercion of law till these educational processes had put an overwhelming public opinion be hind them past experience had shown how futile legal prohibition may be without it one thing they must not allow them selves to slip into any mood of pessim ism one to recent experience public opinion had changed berore on this issue and must certainly do so again for the present trend was bound to precipitate a new crisis in the course of th next few years on the contrary they must work and plan and pray to be ready for the great new opportunity

that faithful and devoted friend a dog as part of- the family circle a gentleman bought a collie which when taken home after the fashion of ijls jclnd soon made himself one of the family and assumed special responsibluv ties in connection with the youngest child a girl three years of age it happened one day in november that the father was returning from a drive and as he neared his house he noticed the dog in a pasture which was separated by a stone wall from the road from behind this wall the collie would spring up bark and then jump down again constantly repeating it leaving his horse and going to the spot hefoundhlsjittleglrjlseated pnia stone with the- collie wagging his tail and keeping guard beside her in the light snow their path could- be plainly seen and as he traced it back hesaw wheretheiittleoneiiadpalked several times around an open well in the pasture very close to the brink were prints of the batoy shoes but still closer on the edge of the well were the tracks of the collie who had evidently kept between her and the well we need not tell you the feelings of the father as he saw the fidelity of the dumb creature walking between the child and what might otherwise have been a terrible death lost treasure by arthur b rhinow from the boardwalk of coney island i noticed a group of men sifting the beach sand in little sieves as though they were looking

about 45 miles southeast of the city of detroit and about the same distance from windsor ontario the southern limits of canada are wholly farther south than 11 of the states of the united states and south of part of eight other states moreover the greater part of europe is north of can adas farthest south in about the same latitude as rome italy and the northern fringe of portugal the sbates

the habit of faultfinding is an in sidious ope it grows upon us without bur knowledge we start with finding fault with the weather and go on till everything that presents itself becomes a target for our scathing criticism as a rule the chronic faultfinder is un conscious that the trouble is with him self he honestly thinks that every- day is too h or too cold that every dish is too salty or too fresh that everyone he encounters is in the wrong he would indignantly deny bejugarifiuie finder and would explain that he is merely mentioning facts that should be apparent to everyone some day just for the fun of it keep track qt the number of times you find- fault if you say that the weather is bad or the room is close or that the steak is overdone or that the postman is late or that your employer is inconsider ate set it down in a notebook and when you look the list over at bedtime it may occur to you either that every thing in the world is wrong br that you yourself are in danger of
