THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG "1 THE HON. ARTHUR E. ROSS ag HAS PLAYED GAMES oF RUGHY, WAR AND POLITICS Kingston's Member In the Legisla- ture--A Sketch of the New Minis. ter of the Hearst Cabinet. The Toronto Star Weekly h tiel regarding er in the Ontario Legis Y-appointed member net, Brig.-Gen. M.G., I= a native o ten. Thirty years ago, Gen. Ross, a sturdy big fejlow, left home nd went to Kingstof, where he en- tered upon an arts course in Queen's - AA i BRIG.-GEN University He was a clever student and made his mark in classics. in which he specialized. But he was Just as clever on the rugby field His chum was Guy Curtis, who in the nineties was known as the best rugby captain in Canada. Ross was an in- side wing player, one of the type who played the game with upiform steadiness, never being brilliant, but always doing his work well. He was known as one who "held his man," and that to the rugby fan meant a wing player &f the best type. In 1894, Ross was the medical candidate for . the presidency of Queen's Alma Mater Society, and his opponent in arts was Francis M. Hugo, now Secretary of State of New York State and a prospéctive candi- for the New York State Gover : norship Ross achieved a notable viet tory in that election; doubling. the vote of his opponent, who even at that lime was an orator of no mean ability. Those were the days when the Queen's University elections were Yery strenuous affairs. Arthur Ross might have become a classical master in a High school and then a High' school principal. But be drifted into medicine. After being a doctor's assistant in Kingston for a couple of years, the Boer war called +Dee* Ross, who served as a Cana- dian trooper in the same unit as Col. L. W. Mulloy, who lost his eyesight in an engagement. When he returned from South Africa he settled in prac- tice in Kingston and also became a member of the teaching staff of Queen's Medical College. Municipal politics soon him, and he made his mark as an al- derman in the Kingston City Council and received an insight Into the man- | In} agement of the city's utilities. Janudry, 1908, he was elected Mayor of King W. F. Nickle as Kingston's member {in the Ontario Legislature, and in| the general election of 1914 he re- ceived a great majority over the Ro- well candidate in the Kingston con- test. | = Dr. Ross started the day after war was declared to form a field ambu- lance corps, and he saw service in { France from the' winter of 1914 un- til the summer of 1919. He refused -to come home until the war was over. | The splendid medical service he ren- dered the Canadian forces overseas has been told by Gen. Sir Arthur Cur- rie, the Canadian officer command- | | ing, who deeply appreciated all he did for the care of the wounded and | in looking after the health of those | on the firing line. Gen. Ross commands the respect and the confidence of 'the Canadian | soldiers. . The more some people tell you the {less you remember. { Some people make a specialty of | believing the impossible.

Women are taking bookbinders There are more women than men doing fine profession work in 'bind- ing, illuminating, ete, presumably e up work as because it is chiefly the leisure vlaks | that interests itself in the work and America can number but few men in that class. Women in England and in France have taken up the work seriously, tog, but there are no signs there that men mean to relimgquish their hold on it such as we see here. In the Guild of Bookworkers, a New York society, there are eighty wo- men members, more than half the entire membership. In England bdoks are considered to be "firewater, bookworms dnd women craftsmen," and here, too, the same trade union order to perfect herself in the var- tons steps that lead to complete mas- tery of the art. Some persons see In the high price | of leather no more deprivation than | fewer shoes--or perhaps none. There | involved. | are more esthetic issues What of levant moroeco, of niger, of oases, dearer to the heart of the binder than any sole leather for her heels? Such leathers have gone up to four times their pre-war value, Women are making books for men to buy, for as book collectors women do. not figure in the market at all nowadays. It is easy enough to fancy | the collection of Du Barry, whose coat of arms adorn many a tamous | volume. La Pompadour made books collection of her drawings--or orna- ments, vases, ete. -- bound in olive Was a genuine collector and a real book lover was Queen Charlotte, who actually kept a servant trained espe- clally to pick up first editions on old stalls, One of her famous books, Education," There is still work for calligraph- | ers among the makers of editions de luxes and women still do It profes- sionally. There was once an Esther Inglis who wrote marvelous little manuscripts, miniatures, in. fact, for Toyalty. She lived in the fifteenth century and tq have her sign her manuscript, no matter if it were the Psalms of David, and sometimes add her picture to the illuminations was evidently acceptable to her princely patrons. A love of the beautiful boo never easy to gratify except for royal persons or royal fortunes. That may | explain why wogen, of Average means possessed of 'that love are taking up the art of bookmaking to-day. -- { Japan Seeing a Great Light, As the news comes out of the East, | | ing toward a distinct change of Jap- | anese policy in Korea. .

South African Ostrich Is a True : .; Monogamist. Fifty-five years ago the ostrich was a bird in uth Africa. True, a few wild ostriches bad been captured and ke tivity for private or publ not domesticated 8« pt in cap- exhibition, but mo attempt appears to have been made to farm them seriously. The few ostrich feathers that reached European markets were from wild ostriches, and, commercially, were considered much damaged. Never- theless they fetched very high. prices, | which naturally drew the attention of South Africa to the possibilities of the ostrich-feather trade. ! The more venturesome | started the present extensive ostrich farming industry by offering very | Brown birds. stock- breeders and speculators practically ! high prices for eggs, chicks, or full- | The Kalahar! -- the | favorite haunt of the wild ostrich--- | | Was searched for eggs and chicks, | but the demand for some time con- | tinued to exceed the supply. hundreds of domesticated or half- | wild ostriches were successfully | reared, partly with the help of incu baters; but the loss by death through lack of experience was for a long time considerable. Fortunately this | In a comparatively very short time | { drawback has since heen largely over- i | come by methods, which, taken in conjunction | with greater attention to selection | { for breeding purposes, has put South African ostrich farming foremost in | the world. | In the life of the ostrich-there-are | some characteristics that deserve mention, because they have been fre- quently mistated or misunderstood. In the wild or natural state os- triches pair in the spring. Once pair- ed, they remain paired "till death doth them part." The female, or hen bird, makes a shallow hollow in the ground away from water-courses for her nest. | the male remains on the nest by night, the female by day. As the eggs | are in greater danger of wild animals | by night, this mutual arrangement between the parent birds js' as ob- | vious as instructive. On the approach | of danger, the parent bird sitting on | the nest will put its neck and head | flat on the ground in front of it, for | by doing 80 it can be easily mistaken for an ant-heap or low bush. Even while going in search of food it may resort to this 'deception. In the domestic state they retain the characteristics observed in their wild state, but in a less degree, ow- Ing to jess natural instincts. In eourse of time they will ne doubt cease to be mono- gamists--a fate that seems ever to | await animals selected by man for | domestic use.-- Family Herald. The Cercay Papers, In the Treaty of Peace occurs a | mysterious allusion to some papers: | the Cereay papers. The clause stipu- | lates that Germany shall retugn to France all the political papers seized | by the German anthorities on October i 10, 1870, at the country house of Cercay, thén the praperty of - M. | Rouher, sometime Cabinet Minister. Not much attention appears to have been paid to the clausé iif the press of the world, . byt a London paper, the Sunday Times, has now broken the silence. [It tells a remarkable | Story. When, on October 10, 1870, the seventeenth Meckleneberg .divi- sion arrived at Cercay, the soldiers way, to turn Rouher's house upside | down. In the process they came upon | Some papers which they would have scattered and destroyed if. it had not been for w German officer who, guess- ing something of thelr value, report- ed their existence and was ordered | to send them to Versailles, where | Bismarck then was.

With i such letters in his Possession Bis i marck held the cards. "I cannot help | thinking," says a German historian, | { Raville, "that we have there the key | to the foundation of the German Em- | pire." A French paper, Le Peuple | Francais, known to have been inspir- | | ed by Rouher; declared in SO many | words that "the coufidential corre- | spondence exchanged in 1865 and | 1866 'between the French Govern- | | ment and the Ministers of Bavaria | | and Wurtemberg had also been left | at Cercay, and are in Prince Bis. | | marck's hands." | etc !
