Mr. Lloyd George declined, however, to comment on the Hughes note. As a culmination of the subtle drive of the canny Welshman to induce the United States to take a strong hand in European affairs, the American reply to the London sounding falls short of what he had hoped for,1 though he regards it as a step in the! right direction from the British point of view. Mr. Lloyd George, however, does not despair of the United States,! which he foresees eventually setting the European house in order.

Janie ran out of her house just as Lula Lee appeared on the porch of the house next door. "Oh, look, Lula Lee, there is a big snowflake! I do believe tomorrow will be a white Thanksgiving. Wouldn't that be perfect?" "I don't know," said Lula Lee doubtfully. "I don't think il perfect without a Thanksgiving grandmother, and I shan't have one this year." "What is a Thanksgiving grandmother?" asked Bobby, who came running from across the street. "A Thanksgiving grandmother is one that cooks the dinner for you herself." "I haven't any grandmothers at all," sighed Janie. "Oh!" exclaimed Lula Lee sudd( ly. "The little old lady that lives at the end of the street looks exactly like a Thanksgiving grandmother. We ' n ask her to be ours. Oh, I hope Sue will be." It was a daring thought, but all three made off down the street, rolling their hoops in front of them. No sooner had they knocked on 'he door of the cottage than a little old lady with white hair was smiling] down upon them. Through the open '■ door came delicious cookery smells. Bobby sniffed. "That's her; I can smell it cooking,"; he whispered cautiously to Janie. "We wondered whether you were a Thanksgiving grandmother," explain-; ed Lula Lee. ^ -Why, I--" the little old lady he.'ii-i "Because if you are," spoke Janie,! "we want you to be our grandmi and let us eat Thanksgiving di with you." The little old lady threw the door wide open. "Come right in; I am so glad to have you." She led the way to the kitchen, faying, "I wonder whether we Couldn't have our Thanksgiving din- ?er today, since you are already here, t is only one day early." The children were quite willing. "I think," said grandmother a3 she fluttered about, "we had better have thick slices of country ham instead of turkey.

The Natural Resources Intelligence Service of the Department of the Interior at Ottawa, It is not generally known that Ontario possesses what is credited to be the largest island in fresh water in the world. Manitoulin Island, in Lake Huron, is 80 miles long and about 28 miles wide at its widest part. It is deeply indented by many bays, has a very rugged surface, and but few roads. There are no railroads on the island, and the few settlements are all situated on the shores. During the summer the island has many visitors, a number of esorts having grown up. When compared with the Province of Prince Edward Island, it will be seen that there is not a very great difference in area, the latter island being 114 miles at its greatest length and 34 miles at its greatest breadth. In its narrowest part, which is near the centre, it is but four Tortoises are very tenacious of life; one of these animals existed, apparently quite unconcerned, for eight months after its brain was removed.!
