Inter-tribal warfare was threatened following incidents in the territory of these tribes, but was. averted by the timely efforts of a sin- gle European police officer. Sir Edward: Griff, Governor of] Kenya Colony, spent the week-end in the affected districts conducting an inquiry, and as a result told the Legls- lative Coungit that he had received a number of reports concerning the growing temdency of lawlessness on the part of young Lumbwa warriors which was bound to have a disturb- ing effect on the other tribes. The position is complicated by the fact that various farms allocated to white settlers before the World War, with the object of establishinge buf- fer area between the traditionally antagenistic Massal. and Lumbwa tribes, do not now exist, Sir Edward pointed out. They were now oc cupied largely by Lumbwa tribesmen. Sir Edward added te had been in formed the younger warriors had been gathering without the permission of their chiefs or elders, and the results were plainly apparent in increasing numbers of cattle thefts, burglaries and other disorders. Attacks had been made on tribesmen suspected of being informers. y Danger. of Clashes A general antagonistic attitude to- wards white settlers was not expect- ed Sir Edward continued, but there was. a danger of clashes on lonely farms and this was causing anxiety. In ogder to prevent the outbreak of further crimes, extra policemen have been drafted for the Lumbwa terri tory.

The question is seemingly one of some controversy, certain references in a repert of a Mounted Police ser- geant being resented. Father .Du- charme of Montreal who for some years has been a missionary {n the far north takes exception to what he construed as an attack upon Roman Catholics who are carrying the gos- pel to the heathen. Reference to the report however, shows that It refers to no religion In particular. Sergt.-Major Clay of Ches- terfleld Inlet dealing with the situa- tion in a report said: "In spite: of the fact that mission- aries have heen established in the dis- triet for some years conversions to Christianity are few and those con- verted practice still their paganism and hold to their old ideals. They are- no further advanced than the primitive Eskimos of the eastern Arctic." Father Ducharme, taking exception to this assertion speaks of Sergt- | Major Clay as a "neurasthenie." a Flying Boat Carries 169 Dornier Flying Boat Stays up An Hour With Largest Human Load Ever Carried Altenrhein, Switz.----DO-X, huge 12- engined flying boat which, was launch- ed here last July, made an amazing one-hour flight Oct, 21 with a hu- man load of 169, the first time in the history of aviation that so many per- sons have been carried into the air on any conveyance. The giant Dornier plane took off at 11.156 am, and landed just one hour later. The machine flew over Lake Constance, her motors working faultlessly, and landed with her 51- ton load at 12.16 p.m. without a hitch. The. DOV carried 159 passengers and a crew of 10. She had made pre- vious test flights, but this was the first time that so great a load was taken up. The 'flying boat, which may he used for a transatlantic 'crossing for the purpose of trying out ifs 'capacities, was built in the greatest secrecy, It was designed to carry 40 passengers normally but has accommodations for 100 it necessary. Her engines can develop a total of 6000 horsepower and each engine can be treated in- dividually without affecting its neigh- Building Canada -- Frontier Villag Sets Ontario Record With Average of 10.

The room contained six bodies, ac: cording tc a dispatch from Allahabad to the Daily Telegraph. One was that of Abdul Majid Khan, brother of 'King Amanullah, whem Bacha Sakao dethroned last spring. Another was that of Hayatulla Kban, halt-brother of Amanullah. A third was that of Monamed Usman, ! former Governor of Kandahar. The other three bodies were unidentified. The bodies were In a horrible con- dition, the dispatch said. The man- ner in which the six died was not known, although it was recalled that' Bacha Sakao had held royal hostages ' in the fortress and threatened to kill them unless they paid a large sum and allowed to leave the city peace- fully. Nadir Khan not only has marched into Kabul as king, but has carried the ambition to modernize the coun- try. He apparently is undiscouraged by the fact that Amanullah, his friend, was ousted from the throne partly be- cause of his efforts tc .modernize the clothing of Afghans. Madame Andre Viollis, who flew to the Afghan capital of Kabul and wit- nessed Nadir Khan's arrival there with his triumphant army ast week, isien, of Paris, as telling her In an interview: "I returned to Afghanistan not for the purpcse of ascending the throne, but to benefit my country.

A total of 4,358 are now lined up in Port Arthur and Fort William yards. Sunday, six boats labored out of port londed down with a million and one-half bushels, while four more steamed east Monday carrying almost 850,000 bushels in addition, Elevators on both Canadian Pacific and Canadian National railways con- tinued to show storage decreases. A ;slight advance in government-bin con- jtents failed to offset entirely the fall- ing 'off, and the total storage well a meagre 4,000 bushels to 86,402,000 bushels---lcss than half of the bins' capacity. Marketings at country points remained almost stationary at 1,744,000 bushels and a 150-car drop marked the loadings, which fell to 1,311 cars. Reports from Sarnia that a monster fleet of freighters had sailed west for the lakehead were discounted in offi- cial reports from Fort William. Port lists there show no such influx of boats listed as en route light for grain. Ac- cording to the head of the lakes state- ments, three grain boats are under the spouts and as many more are en route for grain loads. * Ontario Aviators Set New Record despite the precarious state of my health. | "I intend to reopen the schools,! create new railroads, and develop in-' dustries, \ "I expected the co-operation of all countries, particularly France, where I spent the best five years of my life."

Fail to Discover Macalpine Party Search Planes Report From Bathurst Inlet--Will Explore Shore Winnipeg.--Failure has dashed back another sally over the trail of Col. C. D. H. MacAlplne and seven compan- fons, lost seven weeks ago in the bar- ren sub-Arctice. Four soaring air planes, after a 460mile search along the intended route of the lost miners, reported that no clue had been found. Two of the plane-quartet were to proceed again along the ice-locked Arctic shore of Canada, in a waning hope that the eight prospectors might have flown off thelr route and reach- ed the north coast. The report that no trace of the MacAlpine party had been found, labelled as a failura the first complete journey over the Jand between Baker Lake, 300 miles west of Hudson Bay, and Bathurst Inlet, on Canada's northern rim. Total of | 1,500 F Flying Hours Since First of May Toronto. -- Figures made available recently show that the Provincial Forestry Air Service flyers have roll- ed up a total of 11,600 flying hours since May 1, and have flown over ap- proximately 850,000 air miles. Not a single flying record, day, week, month, individual or entire force, of past years remains. All have been shattered in the 11,660 hour grind--5,440 hours more than in 1928 ~=brought upon the force by one of the worst fire hazard years in the his- tory of the Department of Lands and Forests. "This great record has been estab- lished without injury to a single mem- ber of our service personnel or to a single passenger that we from time to time have carried with us," sald the head of the Service. Only two stations of the many from which the fliers battled with the bush fires this season remain open at pre- sent -- Fort Irances and Kenora, While no further hazards are antici pated several small fires were spotted from a patrol out of Sudbury last week, and the service is taking no chances. In most cases, however, the recon- ditloning program of the force is un- der way, and most of the machines that were engaged on detection and suppression work are now at the Sault Ste. Marie base for refitting and over- hauling. -- Federal Judge Runyon at a dinnet in New York sald of a millionaires will that had failed to please; "Last words, if the truth were known--but these things are usually kept dark-- last words often fail to please.

We all know that | dren are about the finest things there are in the world, and we cherish them pleasure. We must remember that wo weren't little angels withcut any faults ourselves. So if your son. when he is in the adolescent po, becomes a little res and hard to handle, or your daughter becomes a trifle rebellious; just remember that it is perhaps normal, and that he or she will probably with a little delicate handling, survive it very nicely and grew up to be a very fine man or woman, of whom you will have every reason to be proud, . When a child is very young, he goes to his parents for his information; he believes everything they tell him; he thinks they know everything. By and by he begins to get cut and meet other people. He learns things from his school teacher and his Sunday School teacher and his playmates and neighbors that he never heard be- fore. So he discovers that there are even things about which his parents don't know anything, and his early over-estimation of them is apt to be- come under-estimation, Yet there is nothing very serious about them. In fact, psychologists who have studied this very matter have come to the conclusion that if a child didn't pass through this period of disillusicnment, it would mean probably that there was something seriously. wrong. He would remain a child ,and be unfit to go out and assert himself as he needs lo, inthe outside. world. The troubles of a young boy or girl are just as enormous to them as your own troubles are to you. If you make him your confident, he will come to you with his problems, and you can help him, If he Is ridiculed, or nagged, or treated with undue harek- ness he never will, and the parent that does these things is apt to lose his greatest hold on the boy. To lose one's temper with a young boy or girl, is a sign of weakness that he or she may never forget. He should never be punished in anger, Neither should ha be permitted to be habitually disobedient. Firmness with him in the things he does after he has been told are wrong, is es- gefitial, and so ts team work on the part of his parents, They should agree on what he 1s to be taught. it one tells him he can do something and the other tells him he can't, he is apt to lose confidence in them both, Proper sleep, nourishing food, and plenty of air and sunshine .are fur- ther essentials to the development of the young bey and girl They should be served only with good plain foods as far as possible, with vegetables, ebbs, milk, fruit, pre- dominating in their menu.
