A distinguished artist, born in Roch- ester, England, 1869. Came to Canada, 1881. Studied under Manly and Reid. President of the Graphic Arts Club, 1903. President, Ontario Society of Artists, 1915-19. Elected R.C.A., 1926. Instructor in School of Archi- lecture, University of Toronto, LL.D., Queen’s 16231. - _ My Dear Mr. Bull: You are responsible for a sleepless night for me. It is my habit to read in bed, and generally I choose some- thing sufficiently dull to induce‘ somnolence. Unfortunately, -, some nights ago, I took your book: it wns bad medicine, for the result was that' it was after 4 am. when I turned out my light. This, I think, is pretty con- vincing evidence that you have made, your subject interesting, to one reader at any rate. For what's Peel County, or its doctors, to me? Yet, somehow you lured me on until I felt that it was necessary for me to know all about them, and I found the path to knowledge most _enterteinimi.. . _. Dr. Jeffery's writes to the author concerning the book as follows: _ York Mills, Ont. C, _.' Aug. 11th, 1934. Agrees Plan of Writing Follow. ed is Most Effective Possible I am impelled to send you this testi- mony of its merits as an anti-sedative; but I wish you to know also that in my opinion . it possesses another quality, rare in local histories. Your book made me realize what I had often dimly felt in reading, as I have had to do, many of these generally tedious compilations. Only too often the local chronicler treats his subject as though he was dealing with a com- munity isolated from its neighbors, dissociated from the great world around it, and uninfluenced by the events and forces of the period he covers; as though it grew solely from its own roots. The point of view, as well as the subject is parochial. Your book shows that local his. tory must be general historyl to a large degree, or it has no signi, ficance or meaning. Sometimes, in discussing the scope and plan of your book, I felt that it was in danger of becoming too diffuse and ine naive, and I may have said so to you. But, though I think that the present vol- ume might have been somewhat con- densed with advantage, the result shows that your method was right. You couldn't tell the story of Medi.. cine in Peel County without telling n good deal of the story of Medicine everywhere and at all times; and lEalen. Vesalius and John Hunter worked in your county no less than Pattullo and Henry and the rest of them. I think that you will find that the same treatment will apply with l equal success to the .other subgects you t0liah'rgUmis AUTHOR Mr. J. Holmes, resident engineer at the East African Power and Light- ing Company's new Tuna River sta- tion, sixty miles from Nairobi, has one of the most excitin jobs in East Africa. Although 'e'l1"l,VG' isolated from civilization, he is never lonely-- he is to busy keeping wild animals at bay.

Your work has n wider point of view than most local histories, Ind in this respect should set a standard for similar works in the future, Presented thus, The History of Peel County gives a picture that is typical of many of the communities of On- tario, and, making Illownnce for slight local variations, one can see from it what life w“ “kg in the i3; ii’a‘hn life wig like% the early days throughout the older parts of -the Province. - __, - "Till-é Medical volume sets tb difficult puce, but I have no doubt that its successors will keep well up with it.

It had come up the African coast from the Canary Islands where it had taken aboard a large number of canary songsters. The birds were a cheery lot; their melody made the crew and passengers happy] All went well on the sailing ship until it started through the loo-mile neck of the Mediterranean between northern Africa and Sicily which hangs off the toe of the Italian boot; at least, that is the way it looks on a map. A severe storm struck. The masts and sails were torn away. The ship foundered, burst open in places, and was certainly doomed to go down. lAmmrentely all on board would be on. "As we cannot save ourselves," said one of the sailors, "l will free the birds which have entertained us since we took them from their native land. I will open the doors and let them out. They will surely Perish with us if I do not help them.' Birds and animals seem to have an uncanny sense of impending danger; in this respect their intelligence betters that of man. As soon as the kind sailor opened the doors of the cages the canaries zoomed out and flew speedily upward. Suddenly they shot out in a northeastern direction. Had they sighted Sicily, or was the ‘wind coming from the southwest? Their little yellow bodies made a rapidly moving cloud as they stayed ‘all together in their effort to reach dry land. Where did those caustics g," For ‘some reason they did not li e Sicily, and they did not relish Italy; but they did stop at Elba, the island which Wu destined much later to be the place of banishment for Napoleon Bonaparte.

Foreign visitors to this country are often surprised by the high place taken in life by the Jews, and by the respect universally accorded to the Jewish race. For centuries this has been typical of the English. The age- old European practice of the “postal!” has here never been a national pas- time, nor a relief for over-strained nerves. In times of crisis Epglishmtrnl have never sought for an easy scrape-i goat and turned to Jew-baiting. he result has been that the Jews in Eng- land are loyal, worthy, and happy citizens . . . It has Men said that every country gets the Jews it a.. serves. Britain and the Jews have always deserved well of each other. ---Undon Evening News.

To- day the bulk of imported Canaries come from these mountains which are covered with dense forests and thick undergrowth. The sailor that freed the little yel- low birds went down with his ship, All the passengers were lost. How.. ever, one sailor managed to seize a heavy timber from the ship, and he clung to it till it scraped a beach. He was the only survivor from the ocean tragedy, the only one left to tell this story of his brother sailor's kindness to the Canaries. Banning Daisy My first winter in Canada was spent with friends who were home- steading nearly six miles northwest of Edmonton, Alberta. When the man of the house had to go to town, the doing of the outside chores fell upon his wife and me. Watering the cattle was one of the worst jobs, for tting the water from the well was ttllre, ous work. The well itself was a mutate one, with a wooden easing w ich did not quite reach to the top. There was no covering, and a rickety Windlass instead of a pump. In tak- ing the bucket from the rope it was almost impossible to avoid spilling some water, which froze almost as soon as it touched the ground and made the standing place very pre- carious. awn. but she did not charge again. hand she placed her foot on mine and pinned me do'wn to the ground {Mfume quenched her thirst in the be .
