She's another one and she's = dressmaker and Gertrude Olmsted she's a school teacher and you'd never know Gertrude at the beginn' ng. She's beautiful but in the first part of the film she looks like something that came with the groceries. Well, anyway, they got to Monis Carlo and Gertrude meets Lew Cod: all done up like a Prince.

King, of Edmonton, Alta., who is supervisor o: milk yield and tester of butter fat, under the employ of the Federal Gov- ernment Live Stock Branch at Ottawz. Mr King who is on his way east to inspect the dairy cattle at the In- dustrial Farm, Fort William, spent the weekend with Mr and Mrs Dawkins, and was much impressed with the fine herd at Grandview Dairy. During the next eighteen months, the Grandview herd will be under super- vision of the cost of which will be borne by the Government. A certificate will be issued after each cow has completed the test period and each cow must give 12,000 pounds of milk and 408 pounds of butter fat in 365 days to be eligible for this test. Mr Dawkins is quite confident that each of his cows will exceed this amount by at least 2,000 pounds oi milk and 80 pounds of butter fat. ------ Mary Edith, infant daughter of Mr and Mrs Taylor, of Dyment, died at the family residence on Thursday last week, The little baby who was only eight months old, suddenly took ill, and passed away before medical aid could be summoned.
