Roy, who returned to the city this week to resume his du- ties in the English department at Queen's, spent much of the sum- mer in Germany where he was a vis- iting professor lecturing in two German universities, Giessen Uni- versity, in the province of Hessen, and the University of Dermstadt, in the south of Germany. His lectures dealt with English and American contemporary literature. Prof. Roy found the Germans very much inter- ested in Canada, and he gave many public lectures throughout the country on international aspects and on Canada's evolution aiid her place in the Empire. The Queen's professor contradict- ed the many reports received here that Germany is prosperous. It 1s only in agpearanceé that the people are. The Germans seen at such places as Lydo, Geneva and Italy and along the Rhine were not representa- tive, except of the profiteer class. There was much charity, and the Quakers were doing much good work serving meals to the pre-nat-' C00PNIS9000 00900 V * ERY MUCH By + | ® EDITOR'S IN CHINA. + + ally wunder-nourished children, as many as a million a day. The adoption of the Dawes report will mean much to Germany because it will bring her the much needed credit. The better international re- lations had been achieved through the personal friendship of the lead- ers, Macdonald, Herriott and Ebert, through the example set by Britain of paying off her debts, tXrough the sympathy of the United States and through a trend of high idealism on the part of European statesmen. Germany 'was seeing that if she is to regain a sound position among the nations she must prove herself a good debtor. She Fealizes that she is still strong and the Ruhr policy has united her, but there is no de- sire for immediate revenge. Let the future look after itself. Referring to a recent published report claiming that an Italian dis- covered the telephone, Prof.-Roy re- called seeing in Gelnhausen, the city of Barbarosa, a statue to a German, who was hailed as the Inventor of this wonderful instrument. a A CALM PREVALS ON THE BATTLEFRONT After the Checklang Forces Blocked the Offensive Near Shanghai, China.

One party of travelers from North Dakota; which passed through Gree- ley recently, had a milch goat har- nessed in what the animal seemed to regard as a comfortable position on the running hoard of their car. Mem- bers of the party explained they were accustomed to goat's milk, and that they saw no reason for doing with- out it because they were traveling. The goat was so tied to the car that it could eat leisurely even with the automobile in motion.

Ottawa, Sept. 18.--The Cana- dian government, it is announced, has sold to the Chase Swcurities Corporation and Bayer & Co., Inc, of New York City;" $90,000,000 one- year four per cent. treasury gold not- es, due September 165th, 1925, the proceeds of which are to be used in connection with the retirement of maturing treasury bills, exckeding the amount of the new issue. The treasury bills were, it is un- derstood, taken over at par. They form part of the $200,009,0°0 ap- proximately, of obligations coming due this year. These consist of Vie- tory bonds amounting to $107,000,- 000 which fall due on November 1, and $91,000,000 of treasury bills. The balance between the ninety mil- lion dollars sold today and the ninety-pne milifon dollars of trea- sury bills nraturing; will be met out * of cash. A domestic loan will, it is expect- # ied, be floated to meet the maturing $100,000,000 Victory Loan. Final decision in this regard has, how- ever, not been reached. The maturing treasury bills bore an interest rate of § 1-4 per cent. In today's sale, therefore, the Dominion Government will gain in interest rate to tiie extent of ome and one-quarter per cent.

The exhibit was to show the value for selling milk by test to the cheese factories. In each case one hundred pounds of milk was made into cheese which sold at the rate of 16 cents per pound. The first cheese, which was made out of milk which tested 3.9 butter fat, produced a cheese which weighed 10.50 pounds and was worth $1.68. The second cheese, which was made out of. milk testing 3.90 butter fat, made a cheese which weighed 7.75 pounds and was valued at $1.24. The third cheese was made out of fitty pounds of each kind of milk, and it produced a cheese weighing 9.37 pounds and was valued at $1.50. This exhibit should certainly sat- i=fy the farmer that it is better to sell by test. Many farmers visited the exhibit and were delighted to get the information. Cattle Judging. The judging of cattle was com- menced on Wednesday afternoon and was continued on Thursday morn- ing. The exhibit of cattie was the largest in the history of the fair. Among the cattle exhibitors were twelve head of Aberdeen Angus emti- tle. These beef cattle were about the finest exhibit that has been seen for some time. The bull weighed 2100 pounds.
