Clark, Wellington, Prof Mes: Mary Hynes "Wyles, OF | Adams, N.Y, . - Dear Mr. Clark: Since my return home from my pleasant visit with you and the oth: er friends still living at Wellington; I have wondered if I fully expressed my pleasure and surprise at the won- derful improvement in the place. Where 1 left two little hamlets, then called Upper and Lower Wellington, 1 find both united into a pretty coun- try town. The two villages were se parated by the Reynolds Hill, where the Reynolds farm house was locat- ed, with the barns on the opposite Side. of the road. It was my privil- ~€ge to once more enter this house, BOW an old land-mark and the oldest house in five counties, where I found two friends that are among the ear- liest whom I ean remember. In my 'young days I little thought that in after years this house: would be oQn- sidered a curiosity, because of its construction and remarkable state of Preservation. It is no longer a farm house but is now a Summer 'House on the shore of Lake Ontar- io. Beautiful homes occupy the site where the barns once Sood. oF is only a sif€ht FORTY place of the hill there up grade and the stranger would ne- yer imagine it was once a hill on a country road. "Tarra Hall" looks very much the satiie with the excep- tion of the marks of time, how ver, it did not seem as grand and i pos- ing as I Temgmbered it, when it was { y one of the most influen- tial families of" the town. The Cummings' house is another familiar place that shows its age, but it is beautifully located ° and without doubt will be repaired or the site uti- lized for some other purpose in con- nection with the new harbor, The William Harris house and the old shop looks exactly as it did when NYrue thme, Was a child, so does the "Head Tav- €rn" as it was then called, The other houses that I looked for were gone, torn down and new homes erected in their place. This was the case with my old home on Belleville street, 'that was built within ny re membrance by my father, Richard Hynes, lington. With the permission "of the present occupant of the new house I looked all around, but the weil in the back yard was the only thing about the place. The .

A letter published in a recent num- ber of The Woman's Century closes with' a reminder to the Editor that it is "'up to her" to teach the women of this country their duty regarding the subject upon which he writes. The letter was . from a prominent Canadian fruit canner, who said' that never in thirty years of business had his firm had such a painful experi- ence as in the past season. Their warehouse was full of goods, which they were unable to sell except at a fearful sacrifice, on account of the lack of purchasing power of the working classes. Their goeds, he said, might be called the working man's luxuries; to-day the working man is not buying any luxuries. Yet in the last eleven months over five million pounds of foreign fruits were brought into this country in air-tight cans. Furthermore our own fruit growers sold their last season's fruit at a very low price because the man- ufacturers did nbt dare to put it up | on account of the prejudice in favor of imported goods. "We have, our- selves," he says, "over $20,000.00 locked up in beautiful fruits put up in air-tight cans, mest of it in gold- lined tins--just as fine as ever anything was put up in the world-- Iying in our warehouse, unsold, be- | cause the housewives of this coun- try are buying canned pineapple, canned cherries, and canned fruits of all kinds from California." . "California, Hawaii, Singapore, France, and every country in the world but their own, because they have got an opinion that anything that is imported is aristoeratic and superior, and anything that is Can- ddian is plebian and common. What is the result? None of the factories will put up a pound of fruit this year, and what ig the further result? The fruit growers will be obliged to take next to nothing for their fruits, or leave them on the ground to go to waste if we have -a heavy crop, and you will be surprised to know still further, that in that same period of eleven months, this country im- ported almost entirely from Great Britain, 4,272,362 pounds of jam, not one particle better "in any' respect than the jam made in Canada. Look what this would have meant to-day. "If this amount had been spent for jam in Canada, it would .have meant that, instead of our factories being loaded to the roof with jams to the value of far more than this, we would have doubtless had been re- duced tb reasonable proportions. I believe that there are in jam fac- tories to-day $500,000 worth of jam that is being carried in Canada, and which the owners are unable to sell 'because the housewives go to the Stores and take anything that the grocers persuade them is good, and in many cases, perhaps, insist on something that is imported. I am not talking this way because I am a jam maker, but because I know that every word 1 say is absolutely true. Our quality be put up against anything in How d. . There ig not a shade'of doubt about it. Anybody who is an expert or judge will say 80, It is nothing but the careless- ness and thoughtlessness of those who buy the jam that brings on this condition. What is the consequence? be prem are gradually moving away f us, going to other countries, some of them going to the States: We have not any work. for them to do. Our factories are comparatively idle. We are struggling under a heavy load, trying to exist until the times get more prosperous, when the people will absorb not only $800,000 worth of British jam, as they did in 1912, but will alsé have ours," The great altitude attained in the Laurentides National Park' ini Quebec is given by a recent writer in The Montreal Standard, Authentic figures are difficult to obtain, but theré is no doubt that Eboulements and Ste.

There Is No Dope on the Philadel- phias--Alexander Is the Only One Definitely Known. By George R. Holmes New York, Oct. 5--Pat Moran's Philadelphia Nationals probably will g0 into the coming world's tilt, the biggest dark horses that ever faced a starting gun in the October derby. The Braves of last year were com- paratively unknown before the series, | but there was a world of dope on | them, however, reliable as compared with the Quakers this hectic year. The Bravés went into' the series | as fighters, with the glory that goes | to a team that fights its way to the | top. The Phillies haven't had such | a trip to Pennantville." "They. loped | along on an event fifty-fifty keel, never having to fight very hard, and Idtting their rivals cut each others' throats. Aside from a very definite opinion of what Alexander is, no one knows a whole lot about the Phils. About the only comparison that can be made 'that isn't wholly edious is to compare the Phils with the 1912 Giants, who faced the Red Sox in | that memorable eight-game series. | And Moran's men do not compare with the crowd that McGraw led | against Stahl then. The Giants bat- | ted about fifty points more as a team, | they were well fortified with utility men, and had three pitchers ranking as stars. The old Giant machine | was then at its highest point of effi- ciency---Marquard and Tesreau were | budding on the edge of stardom, and Mathewson was in his prime, Yet, the Red Sox of 19%3, who were ad- mittedly weaker than the Red Sox of 1915, won the series. With the exception of the great | Alexandér, Moran's jpribe is just as | big a crowd of baseball "misfits" as were the Braves. It is a ¢lub thrown together not with' any: harmonious | idea, but with an eye to saving the | dollar in the face of what looked to | be a bad season. | The Phils ape guing into this series | in much the same order the Braves | did last season, in that on paper they are hopesessly outclassed. The | Braves won in four straight games-- | an unheard-of feat." And the Phils | will--wait until October 17th. \ Sporting Notes, { Montreal A. A.
