Five-year-old Billy was talking to his Aunt Mary. She said, "Well," Billy, I suppose you'll start to school next year." "Oh, no, auntie," replied the boy. "What would I do in school--I can't even read or write?" An Englishman visiting an Ameri- can lake asked a native if the place was good for fishing. "Sure, stranger," "What kind of fish?" "Qh, all kinds, stranger." "What did the largest fish you ever caught weigh?" "Wall, stranger, we don't take weighing machines when we go fish- ing, and I'm an honest man and would not like to say how much the last trout I caught would weigh. But when I pulled that fish out of the water, the lake went down a foot." Two wives were discussing their respective husbands over a cup of tea. «The first complained that her husband never came home from his club until it was past midnight. "Well, my dear," said her friend, "for years I wondered where my hus- band was spending his evenings. And then one night I reached home early --and there he was!" There is, just now, quite an argu- ment on among those who study the brain and nerves, about worry, Sur- prising as it may seem, there are high authorities upon the subject who say a certain amount of worry is a good thing. This depends upon what is understood by worry. If it is a mere nervous anxiety, it is bad. If it is more or less calm effort to figure out one's troubles and seek to find a remedy, it is, of course, a good thing. v A friend of ours believes it is per- |fectly alright for the government to spend a million dollars before break- fast, but thinks it is a terrible squan- der of money for the city board to spend $3,000 over a perlod of years for gravelling the streets. They were entertaining friends in their - new 'house. - Suddenly one of the guests sat up and listened. "Surely you are not troubled by mice already?" she said. "That's not mice," "replied the Australian Pageant Ignores Convicts "Seamy Side" of Country's His- - tory Will Be Glossed Over In 150th Anniversary Play, There will be no references to con- victs or bushrangers in the pageantry with 'which Australia will' depict its history in its 160th anniversary cele- bration next year. 'The ministry in charge has decided that the pageants shall not depict the seamy side. Others, however, do not agree, "To gloss over an important part of our national history, simply be cause to some people it does not seem quite 'nice,' would be good evi dence to the civilized world that we are no more than sentimental bar- barians," said H. M. Greene, Sydney University librarian and authority on early Australia, "Cannot be Authentic" "To stage a pageant of the land- ing from the first fleet, and exclude any suggestion of convicts, when the only reason for sending the ships was to establish a convict settlement, is absurd. In any pageant which at- tempts to portray the development of Australia, it is impossible to ignore convicts, or even bushrangers, It cannot be authentic'if the darker pages of the national history are torn out. "It would also be unjust to ignore the many men and women whose labor and suffering went to the mak- ing of the nation. Convicts built the first roads, helped in the first explor- ation, and in the clearing of land for settlement. It is to the convicts that Sydney owes some of its finest build- , ings." = householder. "That's the people next door eat'ng celery." A dear old lady returned from her first visit to France. "What impres- sed you most?" she was asked. "Well," she replied, after a moment or two's thought, "I think it was the French prcasants singing the mayon- naise." Sailor-- We just dropped our an- chor, lady. Lady--I thought you would. It's been dangling outside for some time. Capta:n -- "Have you cleaned the deck and polished the brasses?" Sailor-- "Yes, sir, and I've swept the horizon with my telescope." -- Old Gent--"What do you mean by saying your occupation has gone?" Tramp--"They"ve pulled down the house I used to lean against." | a ------ , SCOUTING Here Everywhere ) A brother to every other Scout, without regard to race or creed = Pan mm There J SN i . The old British trawler, "Espero," which was used in the filming of Victor 'Hugo's "Toilers of the Sea," - is now the floating home of Sea Scouts of the Island of Guernsey. The old vessel, which had| been abandoned by the moving Sn people on- the conclusion of their work, had sunk in St. Peter Port Harbor. It was purchased at auction by Rev. G. A. Taitt, and handed over to the Boy Scouts. = The Scouts are refitting "the old craft, under the guidance of a ship's carpenter, =~ ~ i * * » When at home at-Pax Hill, Hamp- shire" Lord Baden-Powell, Chief Scout, begins his day at 6 a.m. with a walk, accompanied by his three dogs. One of these is a big black "Labrador," old and blind. At every stile, relates Mr. J. F, Stewart of Toronto, a summer gues: of the Chief Scout, Baden-Powell helps the old dog over, and guides him through the gate. When they turn back for home, the old dog presses his nose against his master, and is given his cane, Proudly carrying this, the dog goes ahead, and arriving in front of the house, walks slowly in a circle until the Chief Scout comes, and with a pat. takes the cane from him. * a * ' B.-P. is pictured as a most enter- taining host, still full of the play spirit of boyhood. "At dinner one night," related the visitor, "he gave us his ideas of a Caledonia market-- a jumble of people, shacks, booths and noise, and wound up with a live- ly portrayal of a coster selling "bar- malade."

As a prank, he and another youngster carefully disguised themselves and went -as "newspaper correspondents," one allegedly for a French news- paper. the other for "a London daily." Chuckling as though the af- fair had happened but yesterday, B.- P. recounted the chats he had with various people present, including one elderly lady who was pleased to re- call having met him in London the previous scason--when B.-P. was in "India. : * * * The Chief Scout was described as 'remarkably active, and "at 81, as fine a specimen of a well preserved elder- ly man as one would find anywhere." He always sleeps in a corner room wiich has no walls on two sides; he riets regularly at 6 o'clock, and goes for a walk with his dogs. On his re- turn he goes through his small mountain of morning mail, and has it ready for his secretary before breakfast. * * > The visitor marveled at the amount of work done by the entire Baden- Powell family, "Sometimes there were three typewriters going-- Lady BP. at her machine on Guide af- fairs, the Hon. Heather B.-P. on news matter for the press, and the Chief's secretary on his correspond- ence. A regular workshop!"

Recent highlights in Quebec are the indications of big mine probabilities on Sladen Malartic and East Malar- tic, and an enlarging and higher grade ore outlook on Powell Rouyn. In Ontario's Larder Lake area, Barber Larder is the rising star, with important mine indications. Omega, Kerr Addison and Martin Bird con- tinue to develop favourably. Oriole has new developments of promise. Kirkland Lake Gold is meeting with splendid success at depth. Other Kirkland Lake producers show steady production record. In the Porcupine camp, Moneta and Pamour have outstanding favour- oble ore disclosures. In the Long Lac" camp, Hardrock is preparing for production, with the mine indicating an important future. Hutchison Lake, on underground work, is shaping up favourably. In Patricia, the Albany River mine, after a long period of uncertainly, is developing important ore. Crowshore, adjoining, is proving the continuance of the favourable structure. In Alberta, the Turner Valley oil field is showing rapid Recent new production successes indi- cate important future dividends for: Royalite, Brown Oil, Davies Petro- leum, Monarch, Foundation and Com- monwealth. One hundred miles to the south of Turner Valley, at Taber, the Plains Petroleum Company has attained success with a commercial producer.

Borgia Poison ~ Recipes Found Woman Discovers Death Secrets Of Famous Italian Family There is a bank in London, Eng- land, which has in its vaults secret recipes of all the deadly poisons known to the Borgias, the famous Italian poisoners. ) They have been placed there for safety by a woman who is afraid they may get into the hands of the wrong people. She is Miss Kitty Shannon, nove!- ist daughter of the late Sir Janes Shannon, the famous R. A. When she decided to vwite her sixth novel--about the Bor irs---Miss Shannon went to Italy to hunt up the poisons tnd uscd for inclusion in the book. . Miss Shannon told the. "Daily Sketch:" "I advertised in a Rome paper for somebody v:ho knew the re- cipes." } Police and Chemists "The first thing that happened was that T had a visit from police officials, but I was able to reassure them that I had no evil intentions. "Then I had a visit from a chem- ist; in fact one of his ancestors had prepared poisons for the Borgias. He gave me the recipes for ten different poisons." : Simple Recipes "I was appalled by the simplicity of some of them. One, which I dare not reveal, is so simple that it can be prepared from boiling down three dif- ferent weeds that you tread under- foot any time you go for a country WOMEN WHO SUFFER WOMEN who suffer "An sllence often pay a double penalty for wearing this gag of un- selfishness or silly pride.

A gman expansion; 4 y Modern Bluenoses "Bunch of Softies" Captain Walters Snorts at Nova Scotia's Fistiure-Loving : Bluenose sailormen, descendants ot those iron men who sailed .wooden ships 60 years ago, are a thing of the past, in the opinion of Captain Angus Walters, of Halifax, skipper of the Lunenburg banker Bluenose, : "The pleasure-loving generation of today are a bunch of softies," com- mented the man who took command of the Bluenose when launched in 1921, and has helped her keep her title "of Queen of the North Atlantic Fishing Fleet ever since. The future of the fishing industry in Nova Scotia was threatened by a shortage of young men willing to dare the hardships and dangers of Bank fishing, the Bluenose skipper said in an interview. He did not know' if this shortage was caused by pros. pect of pcor returns from fishing or, whether it was "just the effects of our pleasure-seeking age." Automobiles, radios, dance music and other distractions had lured the young men away from the sea. | added the time was not far distant when Lunenburg's famous fleet would! put out tu sea manned by alien crews, | Already there was a fair-sized sprink-, ling of sailors from Newfoundland and other countries manning the Bankers: Ninety-Foot Drop Down Mail Chute Englishman Has Surprise Alice-In« Wonderland Journey James Thomas, 69, is recovering from the surprise of an Alice-in-Won- derland subterranean journey he made last" week. Mr. Thomas stepped off the New- market race train at Liverpool St. station, London, England, and walk ed across the platform towards a cab. He stumbled over a railing and dis- appeared head first into a hole. His wife screamed and' fainted. Porters rushed up. Meanwhile Mr, Thomas plunged at express speed --down a 90-foot long steel letter chute to the post office in the tube station under the street. Turned Up In Post Office ~ Ten seconds late, breathless and aghast, his bowler hat bouncing be- -fore him, he shot on to the revolving band, Charlie Chaplin fashion. Dumb- founded postal workers stopped the maxhinery and picked up the white- haired man, who had suffered nothing worse) than a slight cus on one hand anda bad shaking up. } He was taken back to his wife. She revived at the sight of her lost husband. "Oh, Squibbs!" she cried, and they embraced as hundreds cheered the return of the man "who went down there." Prophesy 40-Knot Atlantic Liners New Shins to Travel Almost Ten Knots Faster Than Speed Of "Queen Mary" Liners which will cross the Atlantic at 40 knots--almost 10 knots faster than the Queen Mary--are foreshad- owed by secret experiments now being conducted on Tyneside, England, Swan, Hunter and Wigham Rich. ardsen, Ltd.. builders of the Maure- tanfa, which held the Blue Biband for many years, are testing a model of a streamlined hull of revolutionary design, 60-Knot Destroyers it has proved too fast for the Ted- dington tank of the National Researcn Laboratory, and to enable it to be tested at full speed, a speclal tank has had to be ordered, If the tests are successful, Swan, tiunter and Wigham Richardson, Ltd., will place on the <tocks an o.ean-. geing yacht embodying the new prin. cl les. Engineers believe that the next step will be to build a 40-knot Atlantic liner and destroyers doing up to al most 60 knots. i Three-Day Crossing A liner with that speed would cross the Atlantic in approximately three days compared with the 3 days 23 hours 67 seconds with which the Queen Mary won the record in Aug- ust, 1936. : T. Morrison, a director of Swan Hunters, said: "A great deal of in- vestigation remaing to be done before we can say with conviction that the new hull will give the results for which we hope." Diamonds Found On Lake Bottom The South African Government last week despatched a special force of diamond police to Verncuk Pan to guard a newly discovered diamond field, pending a legal decision on an action to stay prospecting. Verneuk Pan is a lake bed in Calvinia where Sir Malcolm Campbell established automobile speed records in 1929. It is located in a desolate part of Cape Province. Some experts edclared the stones found so far were small and of poor qffality.
