HARRIS, HARRIS & WALLACE, Port Perry, Ontario, Solicitors for the nbove Estate, too UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE COMMISSION. - Questions of a perplexing nature to employers and employees alike in re- gard to insurability and contributions under the Unemployment Insurance Act are being answered daily by Mr, Edmunds, Manager of Oshawa Office. In discussing some of these pro- blems Mr. Edmunds stated that there is no age limit or minimum wage limit for insurability. The employer pays both the employer and employee con- tributions for workers who carn- less than 90c. a day or who are under six- teen years of age. The weekly rate of stamp to be aflixed in each of these cases is 27c, - All employees are insurable unless they habitually work less than four hours a day, or are available for em- ployment in insurable work for only two days of the week. Accordingly, a person who ordinarily works four hours or more a day, but who at times works for less than four hours is still insurable for each day on which he * works. For any such day worked }/6th of a weekly stamp is inserted n the In- surance Book by the employer. The weekly stamp is divided into six sec- tions and is roujetted so that it can be easily torn Jere purpose. --A half day's work by amr employée who usually works 'a full day is re- corded in the Insurance Book as a full working day.

Or -- A BLIZZARD By Harold Gatenhy, Grade XI i I'rom the dprk sky comes blinding show, whipped by the shrieking gale Along- cach side of the path the groaning trees, bent double 'by the storm, and sunk deep into the snow, whistle and howl as the wind drives through their battered branches, Sud- denly the wind changes carrying with it stinging sleet and blowing snow violently in whirls. Strong gusts deep snow-drifts and swirl it about madly, Biting cold sends darting shivers through the lonely traveller, struggling through the deep snow and against. the driving blast, I PAE SATE ARAB SR HS hd . BOOK REVIEW * By Rose Armstrong, Grade XI "IN BRIGHTEST AFRICA By Carl E. Akeley Carl E. Akeley, sculptor, biographer and taxidermist is, through the med-|.Z ium of sculpture, recording the van- ishing greatness of the natural wor) of Africa. In this book he. speaks, lost in" admiration, of the majesty of the elephant, the unchallenged reign of the lion, the beauty and grace of the antelope, the. undaunted. courage of the buffalo, and of certain splendid ers, ' 3 "Carl Akeley's life work will be as- sembléd in the African' and Roosevelt Halls of the American Museum in humay{ bronzes, in a great group of elephants, gorillas, and rhinoceros. In making close observations for "these '| groups he lived a long time in Africa and came close to death on three oc- casions. 2 This writer and sculptor does not dwell on: either the savagery of the animals or the viciousness of the natives, but on their virtues, their courage, their defence of their young and their devotion to their familes. He writes very descriptively, insert- ing a few pictures, maps and dia- grams which add a pictorial interest to the book. In places he interrupts the: description with conversation and with stories that he has heard from '| others who have been doing work similar to his in Africa, pap. _-- IN MEMORIAM "The membry of his dear wee ways Will linger with us all our days.
