Indian Sum- mer is a term usually applied to any period of exceptionally fine weather occurring during October or Nov- ember, but the weight of authority seems to place it in November, It is impossible to define it by exact dates. This short period of warm or mild autumn weather is characterized by an almost cloudless sky, a hazy or a smoky atmosphere, and a temper- ature which is mild in the daytime, but cool at night. It is preceded by "Squaw Winter""--a cold spell when the thermometer first dips below the freezing point. The name is of American origin, but is now used also in Great Britain and corresponds to the British St. Martin's Summer (St. Martin's Day being November 11) when the period occurs in Nov- ember, and to St, Luke's Summer, or Little Summer of St. Luke (St. Luke's Day being October 18) when it occurs in October. In Germany it is known as "Old Woman's Sum- mer." There is no foundation for bed."

Similar tales occur in the Hebrew, among the native tribes of Africa, ete." Following is the nursery tale: "This is the house that Jack built. This is the malt that lay in the house that Jack built. This is the rat that ate the malt that lay in the house hat Jack built. This is the cat that killed the rat that ate the malt that lay in the house that Jack built, This is the dog that wor- ried the cat that killed the rat that ate the malt that lay in the house that Jack built.

SPIRIT OF CANADA Special Day to Each Province Feature at Royal Winter Fair. : Each Canadian province is cele- brated at the Royal Winter Fair by a "day" specially dedicated to show- ing its products and exhibits. This linking of all Canada through com- mon interests in agriculture and nationality was instituted at the first Fair in 1922 and has been continu- ed uninterruptedly ever since. It catches "the spirit of Canada." The- days "with-their mottoes are: If You Eat Starches Meats, Sweets Read This They're All Necessary Foods -- But All Acid - Forming. Hence Most of Us Have ""Acid Stomach' At Times. Easy Now to Relieve. Doctors say that much of the so- called "indigestion," from which so many of us suffer, is really acid in- digestion . . . brought about by too many acid-forming foods in our modern diet. And that there is now way to relieve this . . . often in minutes! Simply take Phillips' Milk of Magnesia after meals. Almost im- mediately this acts to neutralize the stomach acidity that brings on your trouble. You 'forget you have a stomach!" ry this just once!

"Provincial days are observed," says Colonel Harry McGee, Presi- dent of the Fair, "because they con- tinue the policy of the Royal Fair, of promoting agriculture and foster- ing a spirit of broad Canadianism. The increasing interest being given by all the provinces to this feature. is a matter of much satisfaction. "Canadian Day, the first day of the Fair, is devoted to showing broadly and nationally the essential unity of Canadian farm interests from coast to coast, The above ment- ioned Fair days are devoted to focus- ing 'public attention on special fea- tures of one or other of the pro- vinces,"" "In this way," Colonel McGee add- | ed, "every province and locality re- ceives from it benefits otherwise un- obtainable for it is an axiom that all local agricultural effort logically leads upward to the Royal; and, just as logically, the influence and benefits of the Royal flow outward to the nine puovinces and to their regional subdivisions."

' Jealousy 1s a tree that bears the most bitter of all fruits, Prehistoric Dwellings Unearthed Near Berlin Berlin--The setting up of the Olympia village in Doberitz, a re- moter subutb of Berlin, has had un- expected consequences, Near the Bérliner Chaussee, the foundations of five dwelling places from 2000 to 2600 B.C., have been unearthed, as well as two ash-pits' containing bon. es and fragments of earthenware howls.

Sometimes we were stuck all night fn the' mud, miles from anywhere, Sometimes the roads were so bad and full of holes, one actually tried the open country instead, Do you re- member those roads, Margaret Greenlees? ..... And now today, the roads everywhere are fine, modern ones, and Belgrade Is simply unrec- ognizable for new buildings," SERBIA'S PART "We love Serbia," declared Miss Holme, "and that is why we have come back, Somehow many people in England seem ta have forgotten all about Serbia and the brave, gal- "dand ings she did in the war.
