His father was Professor of Moral | Philosophy jn Aberdeen University, | and he firat saw the light in that an- cient Scottish town on May 19; 1895. | His ancestors on both sides were Lowland Scots from the lands be- tween the Tay and the Tweed. When | he was five years old his parents re- moved to Cambridge, where his father had been appointed Knight- bridge Professor, and there he was | educated at home and in the local schools until he entered Marlborough College in the autumn of 1908, gain- ing in 1913 a scholarship at Univer- sity College which he was destined | never to avail himself of. It was | thought best for his father to give | him a short tour on the continent as a break between public school and | university, and the war came while | he was homeward bound on his way through Germany. He reached home | after slight difficulties on August 6, | applied ithmediately for a commission in the army, and impatient-.at the | delay was about to enlist as a: pri- vate when he read his name in the | Gazette as a second lieutenant in the | seventh battalion of the Suffolk Regi- | ment. By the time he went to | France in May, he was a lieutenant, | and he was soon advanced to a cap~ | taincy, which rank he held at the time of hus death. Th: beginning of his school life as a day-boy at the King's College Choir School in Cambridge broaden- ed the awakening nvind whieh had ¥ received its first stimulus under his mother's home tutelage. In company with his twin brother, his earlier edu- | cation had consisted chiefly "in sing- ing and marching games in French | and English, history stories and | fairy stories, reading aloud from the | Bible and the Pilgrim's Progress, and the learning by heart of passages from Shakespeare, Scott, Macaulay and Blake. In neither of the boys could be aroused any interest In nat- ural history. Charles' happiest hour | came when he was a real pupil in a | real school. '"'He always wanted to 1 grow up, and this was a stage farther on.

His attitude | towards the school, though essentially loyal and filial, developed in breadth and humor as he found freedom and read and thought for himself. The outdoor life of the school appealed no less to him because his mind was 80 eager to find and follow the liter- ary ideas of the time. He was espe- cially interested in football, but what { he Hked best was to tramp, to rum, and to ride his bicycle over the sur- rounding country. From Lis earliest boyhood he was accustomed to writing down what came inte his mind, and his earliest efforts took the form of long screeds | of heroic verse modelled on Scott | and Macaulay. "Later," says his | mother, "he indulged in stories of | the 'shocker' sort, which he used to tell in the dormitory at might as the work of one Jonathan Armstrong. As he grew older he became more and more reserved about his. writing. Though his family knew vaguely of his connection' with the school maga- | ine, The Marlburian, he never saw | fit to enlighten them on the subject." | The Master of Marlborough College | notes especially that he was a rebel against convention, and that al- | though he had in him the making of a good classical scholar he revolted against the routine of classical edu- cation. "In fact Latin literature as a whole failed to appeal to him, --== | whilst he found satisfaction for his | Wash Out Your Pores With Cuticura Soap |spmmes soul in the greater passion and ideal- ism of Greek. He was a voracious reader of English literature, but was fastidious. Tennyson and Browning he could not away with, He thought they were imbued with Victorian artificiality and smugness. He was an ardent admirer of authors like Richard Jefferies and John Mase field." And it was apparently easy for him to discover the best things in modern verse. From the anthology of Georgian poetry, he selects as very striking the werk of "two poets with, strange names," Lascelles Abercrom- bie and Walter de la Mare, and he notes as "the poet of the tramp and vagabond," Wilfrid Wilsen Gibson, whom he had previously come across in the pages of the English Review. "4nd I'm blest," he remarks, "if the truest poem in the book isn't by Chesterton! It is certainly a surpris- ing book, and I am glad to have it."

Toronto Globe Special. Ottawa, May 25.--Parliament had a holiday over Victoria Day, and both Houses, the Senate as well as the Commons, will resume today. In many respects, the most interesting part of the session is yet ahead, especially as regards political de- velepoments. The coming week is ex- pected to see the Ministerial caucus cerigned to solidify the party and to wiagt 2 policy on which tas prinei- ples se! forth in ths Bu cardinal «+ ctor, Recon 3 come later very probaviy after the session ends. With regard to the proposed plat- form of the party, no difficulty foreseen in its acceptance. The fi cal plank, of course, is the real thing of it all, and as it has been subscribed to by the Liberal-Union- ist Ministers and by Liberal-Unionist members who, almost exclusively, were put up to speak last week, any difficulty is thus forestalled. The Conservatives naturally sup- port it because it is the re-assertion of the National Policy. It is apparent that many. things are awaiting that readjustment of the Cabinet that is coming sooner or later. The reconstruction will in- volve the retirement of several Min- isters, but some of them leaving of- fice here will go to office elsewhere. The prevailing idea is that Sir Robert Borden will not deal with the matter piecemeal, but will make a job of it, and this leads to the con- clusion that little will be done on conclusive lines till the abstractions of the Parliamentary session have been removed. Any Ministers who go out in the shuffle will doubtless be provided for. The obvious attention of Sir Robert Borden is to stay at his post. The only thing which would operate otherwise is a further impairment of his health, but seemingly he is quite re-established. At the coming caucus he is expected to make a statement not only in regard to the policy, but in respect also to thé personal plans and the plans he has in view for spreading the evangel throughout the country. This caucus, however, may not be held until the latter part of next week or the early part of the fol- lowing. It will include all Uhionist members and Senators. The adoption of the National Pol- icy is so much to their liking and so peculiarly in line with their tradi. tions that some Conservative mem- bers would favor reverting to the old lines and letting go the Union idea, but there is no question that the Premier's plan is to perpetuate it. Any other course would precipi- tate an upheaval and cause a per- emptory appeal to the country--a development which, as Hon. Mr. Ballantyne has intimated officially, must not be expected before 1922. _ Fruit Prospects Good Brantford, May 25.--Improved weather is expected to prove a tell- ing factor in the crop situation in Brant. The after snow prospects were very bright, but cold, wet weather which followed proved a handicap to the growth of fall wheat and clover. Fruits look very good, especially apples and small fruits, a bumper croy of which is promised. Scarcity of feeds and high prices of concentrates are forcing many form- ers to cut down their live stock supply, but are also forcing them to concentrate on well-bred stock. - correct admixture of The chart shown herewith illustrates the té- sults which were obtained from tests e: It is & matté? of common knowledge that pure rubber alone does not make the best tires, neither does pure cement alone make the best concrete.
