We are also keenly appreciative of the support and help of those mem- bers of the council who support- ed our recent complaint. Unfortunately, despite these efforts, the nuisance remains, and would appear tobe rather worse than before. The man in the street, and Tom, Dick and Harry in the Mill are profane in their insistance that some- thing be done and consensus of opinion seems unanimous in de- claring that a hurried inspection with no tangible results does not by any means meet the case. While we do not charge that the fault lies in the town electrical system, the existance of power noises is no longer denied. The radicals among us advo- cate a wholesale refusal to re- new radio licenses, which of course is absurd. The local rad- io dealers, who have most to gain--or lose--courteously de- cline to act, hence it devolves on us the comman ordinary people to instruet the Mayor and Coun- ¢il in their duty in the matter: viz--That they demand from the Radio Branch the service to which we are entitled--an imme- diate and thorough inspection, and abatement of the nuisance. Yours truly, Philip W. Carr. Miss Marie Boiteau Graduates at St. Mary's Academy on Friday, Nov. 6th.!

Hurrying to hotel for dinner, and the theatre, after a my big city, I have more than once, caught by the traffic, or my own fancy, stopped to gaze on a huge pile of buildings, called such a such, or so and so hospi- tal: The place is anywhere on the American Continent where people mass to make a living. And if winter brought twilight early, T have interestedly wateh- ed the windows brighten, and seen the shades drawn down by white uniformed nurses, or observed the white coated orderlies, doctors or internes, busy at this or that, left to my guess. And, again. more than onee in my experience, this dead mass of brick, stone, glass and cement, has become a living, winking giant, and o'er the din and roar of the city, T have heard the invitation to come and see him. And I, shuddering in the negative, have hardly lifted: my gluey, palsied feet trying to haste away, followed by the jeering laughing 'I'll get you yet," and a depression has fleck. ed my thoughts, at dinner, at the show, and in the night, that such might come true, but a merrier thankfulness has told 1ae that because of fortune and of forbears, not for me were the segregration and suffering in the bowels of my mighty, mock- ing monster. And also because life is not all city, opportunity has presented to me, the dwarfs of country-nursing homes, out- posts,--but always from the out- gide. And again 1 laughed at the pattering of the pygmies and the pixies and toadstool 'neath, jabbering the jargon of the giant "We'll get you yet."" But I had frequently to ask myself, what manner of institutions these were, efficiently and neec- essarily cruel, or full functioning, unruptured bowels of compas- gion? If T have mentioned bowels before and now again, it is be- cause of my obsession. Please excuse me, ones insides do so enter into hospital life, but IT anticipate: What is it that proud tree, leaving it withered, blasted and prone?

State just the same things that you would give to a customer in conversation. State them briefly. Long des- criptions tire. Second, price. That should always be given.
