You and I know the earth is "tilt-} {ed at its axis." We have learned that [it is this "tik" which causes winter { and summer, spring and autumn. Olden peoples knew nothing about that, but they often wondered what was the cause. You, might expect that they would invent fairy stories, and that is just what they did. Today I shall tell the Japanese story of spring and fall: "There was once a beautiful maid- en. The fame of her loveliness spread far and wide. Suitors came from ak- parts of the empire to ask her hand. "Eighty young men came, but each one she turned away. Then came two brothers, rulers of springtime and autumn. They were hopeful they might win favor, but she refused them both. "As they were going away, one of them said: "'I'll bet I can go back some day and get her to marry me.' " 'I'll bet you won't,' returned the other. 'I'll win her before you do!' "They closed the bet. The one who lost was to give the other a cask of wine, "The ruler of spring went to his mother and asked her aid. She loved him dearly, and was willing to do all | she could to help him. So she made a robe of greatest splendor and plac- ed it over him. The robe was mainly green, but there were flowers and cherry---blossoms spread throughout. "Proud of his new robe, the young ome man went before the maiden. was enchanted by the beauty of his appearance and by the: fragrance | which came from the flowers. 0 '"*I shall be glad, indeed, to mar- | ry you," she said. | "The ruler of autumn heard of ail | this and was angry because his mo- ! ther had helped his brother. He refused to pay the bet. "Thereupon, the mother told him | he was without good faith, and that | the time of the year over which he | ruled must be a time of fading and | withering." | i The maiden would take neither the ruler of spring nor the ruler of | autumn. i Next--The City of Carthage. | FUNERAL PYRES IN TOKIO STILL BURN Bodies Yet Being Taken From Ruins--Winter Prospect Feared. Tokio, Oct. 5.--A month after Japan's greatest earthquake finds funeral pyres still burning in Honjo and Fukagawa wards, and in other districts of Tokio where bodies are being taken from the ruins. Besides these pyres are many shrines where relatives of the dead flock to wor- ship and to pray for tne spirits of the departed. Despite the need of haste in dis- posing of bodies to prevent epidem- ics, and in clearing away debris so the city can be rebuilt in a measura before the rigors of winter set in, the bereaved area is finding time to perform the simpler rites of mourn- ing. Shantfes of every description have sprung up over the devastated area, especially in the low-lying districts, giving protection from rain, but not from floods, and it is feared that win- ter will bring in its wake a heavy toll in death from pulmonary dis- eases. Tiny shops with scant stocks have sprung up everywhere, one of the busiest thoroughfares of the city now is in Asakusa, leading to the famous Buddhist temple, Sensoji, dedicated to Kwananon, goddess of mercy. Be- fore the fire this street was the cen- tre of Tokio's Coney Island. British Expert Amazed At Trafic Conditions Buffalo, N.Y., Oct. 5.--8ir Thomas Ouver, former chief of the medical staff of the industrial bureau of the British home office, a special delegate to the national safety congress in session here yesterday, expressed amazement at American traffic con- ditions. "I was amazed when I arrived in this country, to observe the speed at which motor vehicles are permit- ted to operate in your cities." Sir Thomas said. "The seeming lack of regulation of traffic is astounding to one who Is acoustomed to observe the strict regulation of traffic in Eng- land." Sir Thomas referrad to the deaths of 100,000 persons by acoident in the streets of American cities inca 1906 as "terrible." "In England, where traffic 1s mors congested, we have no such total as that," he asserted. "I believe your cities should Hmit automobile speed to 15 miles an hour, and enforce such a Hmit." -------- SIR CHARLES FITZPATRICK. May Be Chairman of Revised Statutes Commission Quebec, Oct. 5.--A report coming from an Ottawa source has it that Sir Charles Fitzpatrick, whose term of office as lieutenant-governor of the Session. Sir Charles, who is qualified for that position, having been minis- ter of justice and chief justice of the supreme court w according' to the same in ion, be given salary of $10,000 to head the co mission, which would report & period of five years. The federal statutes ha: revised for many years and the magistracy are Tn iil li i sn SUCCESS OF LOAN INTERESTS LONDON | Reply to Threats by Q.T.R.| British Finance. | Stockholders--Offers of | London, Oct. 6.--The complete | Success of the Canadian government | loan, part of which London at one time expected to be asked to provide, | has been noted with great interest | in financial circles here. It is a par- | tial answer to the threats made by | disappointed Grand Trunk stockhold- ers that they would embarrass Cana- dian financing for years to come. Aj still more complete answer, however, | is the fact that certain Canadian | delegates to the Imperial conferences | have actually been approached in- | directly with offers of British finance | for Canadian projects, including even | the Canadian government railways. | The Grand Trunk Junior stock- | holders are awaiting an opportunity to wait on Premier Mackenzie King and Hon. alr G to put their caso before ear Ne: is believed that if they can get nothing else they will ask that thelr equity in the Grand Trunk be preserved so that if | the road becomes a paying proposi- | tion they may benefit. } Leaped Rrom Upper Window To Save Drowning Boy Belleville, Oct. 5.--Two medals awarded by the Royal Canadian Hu- mane Association have been received by Charles Hanna, who will arrange for public presentations. One con- cerns a number of boys who were swimming near the mouth of the Moira river in July, 1922. Bernard McGuire got in beyond his depth and was in imminent danger of drowning, when Russell Babcock plunged in and saved him. Rassell's heroism has been recognized, and he will be pre- sented with the medal. The other medal goes to Wilfred Ruttan, for the rescue of a boy nam- ed Frank Copland, in June, 1922. Boys were playing in the water of the sluiceway in the Moira. The Copland boy was being swept to his death when Ruttan, who works in the foundry, observed the danger from an upper window. . hesitation, he leaped from the win- dow and saved the boy. I Man's Stomach Taken Out, Repaired and Put Back -- Buffalo, N.Y., Oect. §5.--Chatting from time to time with the man on the operating table, Dr. Hans Fins- terer of the University of Vienna, be- fore a clinic of Buffalo surgeons, re- moved the patient's stomach, per formed a minor operation on the | organ, and replaced it. The opera- | & tion required nearly two hours, the patient being fully conscious throughout. deadening the nerve centres, had - Dr. Finsterer explained that spec- ial treatment of the solar plexus, made unnecessary the use of anae- sthetic. Physicians examining the patient said he had suffered none of the after affects of shock usual in major operations.
