Then as we rest beside the lakes In the clouds and see the calm and peace which .they enjoy In the midst of nestling hills, we wonder if there's another world. Care has vanished; all we want is to dwell upon the scene. But it was not the Intention to speak of mountain scenery, roaring torrents, placid lakes, and restful haunts. Rather, we were about to speak of the other kind of inspiration that is aroused as one traverses Western Canada's Immense plains, grldironed with railroads and splendid highways, along whose borders and away back are to be seen the most wonderful grafn fields. The crops of wheat, oats, barley, flax, and corn--yes, corn--have Just been harvested, the threshing machines are busy, the elevators are ready--the thirty and forty thousandbushel elevators, with three, four, and five and more at nearly every station along the thousand miles of railway that serve this Immense new area of agricultural land. There Is not a njore inspirlhg sight than these grain fields. They lead one to pause and refect, get one into a mental arithmetic strain, and the mind wanders as it gathers the great length of figures that represents the Western Canada grain crop of 1920. A pencil and paper are needed, for the value will run Into and over a billion dollars. At least, that Is what those who profess to keep themselves poeted aa to values believe. The wheat crop alone will run over 2r>0.(XX),000 bushels, and If you figure this at $2.80 per bushel, the price It is •elling at as we write, there you have $700,000,000 alone. Then there Is the oat crop, with a yield of one hesitates to say the quantities In bushels, for the threshers are reporting yields of 110 and 120 bushels per acre, where but 80 and 90 bushels were expected, but their value, apart from that of barley and rye and flax, will carry us over the billion dollar mark. Of course all this means--but wa had almost forgotten to speak at the cattle and horses, the sheep and the pigs, the dairy and many other farm products, the Increase and production of which this year will bring in many more million dollars--all this means that there will be a rush of buyers to Western Canada this fall, during too winter, and next spring. A certain amount of satisfaction la derived by those "back home here," whose friends are writing them Indorsing the statements that are appearing in the press of wheat yields of thirty, forty, and fifty bushels to the acre; of oats yielding anywhere from sixty to 120 bushels per acre.

Miss CSark was under siege of the Turkish Nationalists from March 8 to June IS and for four days during a terrific engagement between the Turks and Armenians she and five other American women hid In a store room and subsisted oc ratoins and bread While the orphanage they were ducting was under constant fire. "After a day of constant firing," Miss Clark said, in telling of the captore of the orphanage, "two burly Turks entered the building. Then we women began a little game of ill pi i-- acy that lasted ten weeka. - They were about to search the orphanage, hut we assured thou we had no fire arms and they went away, saying that as long as we kept our promise of nan* trality we would not be banned. "The pledge was kept on both sides, but it was a terrible ten weeks we women spent as 'hostesses' to these swaggering Turks, who varied their protestations of friendship with such diversions as leveling their guns as we crossed the compound or twirling daggers suggestively as they followed us about the buildings. After more than nine weeks of this, the Armenians made a sudden charge and drove off the Turks. On June 13 the Turks recaptured the compound and wo war* given three days in which to leave.
