She is a most wonderful laboratory. stomach hopper with grain, grass and silage, then she lies down and by chewing her dud, converts this raw material into the most perfect food in the world. Doctor McCallom, kins University, tells us that the 'water soluble A" and the '"'fat sol- uble B," two mysterious somethings, are found in milk as nowhere else. Without these mysterious vitamines children will not grow, so milk-fed babics have the greatest possible ad- vantage over the wolf-reared children raised without milk to drink. How are the slum babies fed? Black coffee, pickles, imitation jams and molasses on their bread, consti- tute the daily rations of thousands of jour poor families in the cities. Without milk children languish, the vigor of the adult declines and tlhe vitality of the human race runs low. Bread fron men ¢ ® I (National Crop Improvement Service.)

But when they boarded No. 1 west- ward bound we failed to notice sign of the much-coveted scalps attached to the belts of manager O'Brien and his tribe, although it looked for a time as though they were being pre- sented with a pretty soft victory in he afternoon game, as the usually reliable Ackobie was not quite up to form, due chiefly to lack of practice. In addition to this the brilliant infield started a football game, and ere the dust of the first innings had cleared, Kenora had chalked up five runs. Again in the second game they scored two, and with the bases full Ackobie was hoisted from the mound to third sack; Wachman was chased to the goal posts in centre field. Manager Adair again found himself behind the plate, and captain Alex. Duncan placed himself on the mound, and though the bases were full and none out, the best Kenora could do was to squeese one lone run across the plate. | Thereafter until the end of the game The! local boys started in to get some runs they found Duncan invincible. and succeeded in putting over eight before the bell rang--sufficient to win the game 8--7, thus running their victories to a string of seven straight games without a loss. "The morning game was batting bee for Dryden. started for Kenora on the mound; but Phil said "Roy, beat it," after several runs had been scored off his delivery. Next in order came young Rimstead, who met a like reception. The hook was also applied to the young twirler, and Dick Linklater, alias "Chief Bender," was presented for the first time this season, and although he finished the game he was Beddome in the morning game was unsteady, and it looked as though Red was due for a trimming, but he settled down after the first innings and was in good form at the finish.

The Locals, however, soon got their clubs swinging against Fulford shoots, and when the dust had settled at the end of the fifth innings, the score stood 13 to nil, for Dryden. However, the boys were in bad humour that day, and refused to be satisfied, so with the bases full Rochon to bat, lifted one over right-fielders head and the last was seen of McDonald he was 'climbing carefully over the wire fence looking for the lost ball. Beddome did excellent for five innings, but was relieved by Duncan in the seventh, who mowed down the opposition in jig time, and the game was over. BASEBALL JOTTINGS. How much did your cap cost? Gee, she had nice eyes! : Nice day, eh? Miss who? Yes, sure. You see, I gave him the twenty-eight thousand. So you fellows are going to leave me, eh? « Well, all right! It's not the first time I've travelled alone. When is a balk not a balk? When the umpire doesn't see it. McDonald ; St Luke's Lawn Parly On Friday afternoon the lawn of Mr Sydney Bartlett was transformed into a tea-bower. The daintily arranged tables attracted much atten- tion. And were presided over by different members of the Women's Auxiliary, while others lent valuable assistance inside. = Not all the attention, however, was given to the tea tables. Although the pefreshments and tea. were delicious, the candy and home cooking tables were continually busy until all their goods were sold. Miss Maggie and Mrs Don. Beveridge were in charge of the candy table. They realized the neat little sum of $14.65, and many people wished there had been more candy. : Mrs A. E. Berry and Miss Emma Collis took charge of the home cook- ing tables. Here again many wished they had come earlier and avoided the rush. The cooking table netted $26.45, including the selling of ice-cream. Everyone had a good time. The Women's Auxiliary were very much pleased with the results of their efforts. They made a total of $58.75 to which the tea tables contributed their bit, viz. $17.65. H. R. Dorken Presentation The members of the Uneed-tu-kum { Club turned out in full force last Fri- day evening' at a corn-roast, to bid i farewell to their esteemed fellow- « member and first president, Rudolf { Dorken, one of the founders of the ~ Club. | By arrangements with the Dryden Paper Company, the committee had ' secured the service for the evening ° of the big launch the "Bonnie Mae." . With a full complement of passengers despite the rain, the steamer left the wharf at 7-80, headed across the lake, to partake of the hospitality of Mr and Mrs Frejd," who had invited the Club to spend the evening at their summer home. They were received by Mr and Mrs Frejd, and while the committee pre- pared the corn and other refreshments the rest of the Club indulged in _ dancing. After eating as much corn as etiquette allowed, Mr Fowler, the president, spoke a few words on be-. half of the members, expressing their regret at losing their former presi- dent. In stating that all were sorry to see Mr Dorkin leave, and in order that he might remember the old days, he presented that embarassed young gentleman with a large package de- claring it was the Club's wish that he open it. : Mr Dorkin rose to the occasion, un- wrapped the parcel to find a light blue box. It took himseveral min- utes to discover the real parcel, much to the amusement of his fellow- members. At last but not least, was a small square box which, opened, revealed a signet ring. He thanked everyone for having re- membered him and said he was very sorry to leave. The dancing comm- enced again and lasted until the president announced the final. Once more on board the launch, three cheers were given for the host and hostess, in acknowlegement of the good time all had enjoyed. . The Virani of Rosalind THE introduction of Rodhlind to Dry- den Society created quite a stir in social circles. Under the tutelage of the Girls Guild of St Luke's, her sue- cess was assured; the added charm of her' personality, enhanced by the be- wildering array of beautiful costumes in her wardrobe, made her irresist- able. : The young ladies of the Guild had much fun dressing Rosalind for her debut, and their efforts were apprec- iated by their many friends, who vied with each other in their efforts to win of 172 were sold, netting the sum of $86.00. The Girls Guild will use part of the money to purchase mater- ial for the Bazaar in December; the Church advisable. Mrs McFadyen was the lucky pur- chaser of the winning ticket, No.42, and carried Rosalind home in truimph or Rectory as may seem whose tickets had scraps of paper. : The Guild was started less than a vear ago, and its progress has been rapid. Their success at the sale last year should be surpassed at the com- ing December sale The present officers are as follow:--Mrs J. B.
