Now yeast has been added to the list, with the suc- cessful operation for some months of a plant to make yeast from the waste left after manufacturing paper from trees. i : At Liverpool in Nova Scotia is the first plant to make yeast from waste Jdiquid of a paper mill, Its weekly output of yeast is now 20,000 pounds.

After the chemical process of making paper from wood, there is left a small percentage of sugar in the blackish liquor which was once a tree. This liquid is usually dumped into rivers and lakes, and explains why fishing is not so good around pulp mills, : : : Cheniists knew that it would be too expensive to take sugar from the li- quid merely for the sugar. So yeast 'was chosen as the means of utilizing the sugar content of wood, for yeast is a microscopic cell that feeds on sugar, __ By means of various chemical pro- cesses seed "yeast cells imported from the Fermentation Institute in Berlin are made to-devour all the sugar in the liquid waste from the pul, mill Eleven pounds of pure seed cells grow into 16 tons of yeast.

He has asserted himself as the most powerful monarch on earth, In doing so he confounded the most wily statesmen of Europe, including those of his own empire." So observes Earl Reeves, editorially in Liberty Maga- zine, July 25th, 1936. ~ Moreover, he averted Ammediate European war! These events have been shrouded in deepest secrecy, even though a por- tion of the drama was visible. The chancelleries of Europe knew this story, and they are trying to measure and evaluate the new force that has come. into world politics. Within in- nermost circles in London the facts are also known. 4 - German troops mafched into 'the Rhineland. Hitler was tearing up an- other, scrap of paper on which the Versailles Treaty was written, Here was potentially the greatest crisis since 1914, For here was action, a ait occompli--a thing done, such an event as starts troop movements, mo- bilizations, ultimatums, leading to war. There were hurried foregatherings preliminary to a League meeting at Geneva. Most important was the swift departure of Captain Anthony Eden, British Foreign Minister, and cols leagues for: a "preliminary talk" in Paris. Then suddenly it was annovnced that the meeting would not be held in Geneva but in London. This was by order of King Edward VIII! . Amgzingly the shift came on the order of a monarchy which for de- cades has given no orders. The Prime Minister is the master of Britain. The niceties of form are observed, but the rules' of the game are well known, and were always quite rigorously ob- served by King George V. 'However, on this occasion Prime 'Minister Baldwin and Foreign" Min- ister Eden had been summoned to St. Jame's Palace. That 'much was recorded in the press. They found a new king who "told" them ! -- told his ministers what must be done, and made it stick. What arguments he used, or what pressure, no one knows but they must have been very defin- ite. His convictions, in words attribut- | ed to him was "If the talks take place at Geneva, it means another European war will be launched upon: us within forty-eight hours." The arrangements for shifting the fateful meeting to London were made 80 quickly that there was not even time to prepare special 'stationery. All that was used bore a League, Ge- neva date line, ~~ y . Why this veering? Quite simply be- cause the wily M. Litvinoff, Foreign Minister of Soviet Russia, was push- ing Europe toward the conflagration. His "case" was: 'Hitler's action can be construed only as aggression, and the answer can only. 'take the one form -- war." To the French and the British .alike he made such represen- tations. But Litvinoff and Eden have been, of late, the most spectacular diplomats of all Europe, and have been coming closer and closer together. And the whole shaping up of prelim- inary talks had been manipulated by Litvinoff toward a curt order - to Gefmany to withdraw from the Rhineland. within forty-eight hours, That would have lighted the fuse. And the flery and tempermental Mr. Eden might have furnished the match. England's new king knew of all this. He knew also that there have lately been eight or nine cases of sabbotage by Moscow agents, only two or three of which have been reported in the . press. He knew that every Soviet ship which touches at an Eng- SPRINGHURST .

How to Open a Book Held the book with its back on a smooth or covered table; let the front. board down, then the other, holding the leaves in one hand while you open a few leaves at the back, then a few at the front, and so on, alternately opening back and front, gently pressing open the sections till you reach the centre of the volume. Do this two-or three times and you will obtain the best results. Open the volume violently or carelessly in any one place and you will likely break the back and cause a start in the leaves. Never force the back of the " book.--From "Modern Book- binding." The First Tangle Once in an Eastern palace wide A little girl sat weaving: So patiently her task she plied The men-and-women at he! side Flocked round her almost grieving. "How is it, little one," they said, "You glways work so cheerily? You never seem to break your thread, Or snarl or tangle it, instead Of working smooth _and clearly. "Our weaving gets so worn and soiled, Our silk so-frayed and broken, For all we've fretted, wept and toiled, We know our lovely nattern's spoiled, Before the King has spoken." The little child looked in their eyes, So full of care and trouble; And pity chased the sweet. surprise That filled her own as sometimes flies The rainbow in a bubble. "I-only go and tell the King," She said, abashed and: meeekly, "You krow He said in everything"-- "Why, so do we!" they cried, "we bring Him ell our troubles weekly!" She turned her little head aside; A moment let them wrangle; "Ah, but," she softly then replied, "I go and get the knot untied At the first little tangle!" O little children--weavers all? Our broidery we spangle With many a tear that need not fall If on our King we would but call At the first little tangle? lish port is under constant police sur- 'veillance to see that no more officers of Russia's "shock troops" for use in other nations are smuggled Into Eng- land: He was, in short, unable to see the picture of a "friendly" Soviet Rus- sia as many in England and America see it, : iy And so that League Council meet- ing was held in London. What Eden had to say was strangely colorless. Litvinoff was subdued. The two sat side by side, as has been their cus- tom in many conferences, Litvinoff's attitude was expressed in the declar- ation that the king was "blocking the League of Nations justice." He de- clared further -- as if implying better luck next time --- that the League Council had not permanently moved to London. "Even he," Litvinoff said, referring to King Edward, "cannot achieve that." But it was not a mere change of scene which blanketed this worst cri- sis since 1914. King Edward VIII had given more Instructions to his minis- ters. And they, and Litvinoft, and pro- bably others, knew that he sat in his study during thot meeting, listening via microphone to every word that was uttered! And that is why war did not come to Europe. . That also is why statesmen today are taking into account a new force in world politics. As for Britons, the ones of the inner circles are sald to be recognizing that, at the least, an- other Edward has come to the throne and that his brother the Duke of Gloucester, also 'must he reckoned with, because the duke was closely attached with him in the events re- ¢orded here, Joachim - von Ribbentrop, Hitler's ambassador at large, has been pre- senting Germany's case before the ministries of 'Europe. 'He had, of course, had his say in Downing St. Whén the crisis had quieted, he was invited to the palace, where he was closeted for an hour and a half with Edward VIII. No one knows what went on, yet this is one more of a groat many proofs that His Britannic Majesty is no mere symbol. Clearly the world's most popular prince has become a real king." Recently that astonishing stripling John .D, Rockefeller celebrated his 97th birthday, and came out with ten rules for a long life. They eecemed to Mr.. Charles 'W. Eldridge of St. Petersburg, Florida, who is scamper- |ing about in his 106th year. A Dramatic Secret of 1936 " Scoffing at Mr. Rockefelior's ad- vice, Sldridge said: "The young feller asked for it. His ten rules of health ain't bad for a youngster in his 90's, But for the second 100 years they just won't do "Take rule No. 6 in young Rocke- feller's list. 'Don't allow yourself to get annoyed,' it says. That poppy- cock. I've 'been annoyed most of all my 105 years, and two or three times it saved my life. "Once I got so mad at a couple of doctors who said I was done for that I jumped out of _bed for the first time in three months, I was 92 then and grass has been growjng over them doctors graves for ten -years," Mr, Eldridge, we must say, rather impresses us. In the first place, we have never been able to learn how not to get annoyed. We've played golf with people who came out of a bunker in five shots whistling the Londonderry Air, or something like that, but we have always felt they would be better off if they came out with a loud wail. It's a matter of let- ting off steam. In other words, what is the biological, 'spiritual or other sense of not boiling without if one be boiling within? The only differ- ence we can see is that the first with- out the last is less honest than both together. Moreover, there's a lot of non- sense talked about rage. It's the cleanest of passions. We don't be- lieve in a man being tenacious over trifles, but a topped shot when one has a good lie is no trifle, and if a man wants to get into a towering rage over it and show that he has got into one, there's a lot to be said for him. It's the vain man, the fel- low who wants to be thought self- composed, and all that, who repress- es himself. . There's something else. A lot of people confuse indignation with an- rer, Yet they're-different. Anger may be born of spite, or of blind hatred, or a lot of other evil things; indig- nation -usually comes from detesta- tion of wrong. It tells that one hates injustice, that has certain loyalties to certain things. Attachments. No, we have little use for people who don't get annoyed. Mostly, we think, they're "poseurs," without friendships, people who don't like "I'somebody or something, people with- out spirit or soul. Either that or they're too proud to be themselves; so vain that they go about killing themselves with repressions. } 'Cracking Down on Peddlers Writes the St. Thomas Times- Journal--The City Commission of East Cleveland has a bylaw which might well be copied. It declares that a misdemeanor -has been committed when a peddler knocks at the door or rings a bell of a home where a card says that - solicitors are not wanted. . This. is a welcome step for the housewives of that area. It saves them many unwanted callers. These solicitors or salesmen have no one to blame but themselves it women are brusque and shut the door quick- ly. There may be cakes or pies in "the oven which spoil while the spiel is being made. ) The trouble with most of these people is that they. will not take no for an answer. Having. got the lady of the house at the door they keep on talking once she gives ear. They | feel annoyed if she loses patience and cuts off the monologue by slam- ming the door, but it is just what they would do themselves if the posi- tions were reversed. w A Nova Scotian Magazine Notes the Halifax Chronicle -- The second issue of The Bluenose, edited by Robert Murphy, of Hali- fax, has just come off the press and ist edition and Nova Scotians, native and -adopted, give .their impressions of the province's 'charm, We hope that the edition will cir- culate 'among the - people far from Nova Scotia and that the articles will awaken in them a desire to en- joy the beauties of Acadia, 'Perhaps the most appealing article of this sort is that written by V.

Day of Fans Is Passing Notes the Brockville Recorder and Times: Laid away sacredly in that trunk in the garret which contains 'the tregpsures of clder days there is surely a lady's fan. It was a beauti- ful thing, usually the gift of a de- voted admiger. It might be a crea- tion of beautifully fretted ivory slats carved out of the tusks of a great African elephant, or just a simple little thing of painted silk, but sumetimes it was a gorgeous affair made of lovely ostrich feath- ers, with precious stones inserted curmingly, Perhaps no lady's equip- ment of a generation ago is more symbolic of romance, and the temp- tation to dwell upon it is irrestible to the good novelist. Fans have always had a place in ceremonials and are used even now in the East, They are carrfed on state occasions in papal processions in Rome. In Canada they may still be found in country churches, manu- factured of straw for utility pur- poses on a hot summer day.
