Acâ€" cording to German Jaw the finders are entitled to 10 per cent., the property owner getting the rest. The owners have been negotiating with the Govâ€" errment, declaring that for patriotic reasons they want the treasures to remain in Germany. Revenue Lost to Canadian Farmers Through Lack of Southern Demand. A despatch from Fort William, Ont., says:â€"Giving up hope of being able to sell grain screenings, local elevators have commenced hauling this byâ€"product out into Lake Superior and dumping it. Exported to the United States for many years, and yielding in revenue to Canadian farmers and grain comâ€" panies from half to a million dollars annua‘ly, the Southern market has fallen flat, due to decline in the marâ€" ket price of sheep, which were exâ€" tensively fed on screenings. Worth $22 a ton eighteen months ago, it now has no value, and those who are not able to burn screenings or give them away locally, are finding the lake a suitable grave.

Regulations and laws respecting tire prevention will be given publioty by municipal officials and by public meetings or otherwise, the endeavor being made to impress upon citizens the naticnal importance of safeguardâ€" ing life and property from loss by fire.

Report Arctic Weather Their service will enhance the weather service to such an extent that the British Weather Bureau will be able to give intelligence to mariners and aviators about weather conditions extending virtually around the world. A despatch from London says:â€"A staff of British weather experts will leave England within the next few days to take up posts at the weather observatory which has just been erected on the lonely island of Jan Mayen, 300 miles east of Greenland. Each day this group will send weather reports to the British Weather Office at threeâ€"hour intervals by wireless. The speoch exnresses the sentiment of hundreds of thcusands of peasants in the famino area, for by a tour ds force th: seemed impossible a month ago the Sovict Government got seed grain distributed before the autur» rains prevented sowing,. There was planted in Saratovy Province twoâ€" thirds of lasl year‘s area, in Samara fourâ€"fifthy; im the Tartar Reprblic fiveâ€"sevenths, and other provinces reâ€" port similar percentages. Mr. Webâ€" ster, who has just returned to Mosâ€" cow from Saratov, declares wide exâ€" panses are covered with sprouting wheat where a month ago was only a sunâ€"baked plain. The Russian peaâ€" sant is. so truly a son of "Mother Earth," as he calls her, that he is willing to trust to her keeping the seed grain that wou‘ld save him and his family from imminent starvation. There is hope now that he will not pay too dearly for his sacrifice. The remarkable success of the seed distribution augurs well for the prosâ€" pects of Government food distribuâ€" tion, now Leginning, which can use the same mechanism. The efficiency of the latter is vouched for by the Canadian trade delegate, Col. Mackie, who has just made a trip to the Volga. He says: "In 30 years of timber cruising in the Canadian Northwest I had ample opportunity to study the best methods o°f transportation up country from the railroad with my companion, Mr. Wilgress, who speaks Russian fluentâ€" ly. I investigated just how this was being done along the railrosd to Kazan and at various points in the Tartar Republic. Frankly, I do not soe how it could have been improved." A cdospatch from Mossow says:â€" "Surely God has punished Russia enough. I planted grain in the full faith that He would grant a rich harvest next year, though whether He will let me or another reap it I know not," said a pesssnt in Saratov Province to Mr. Webster, representaâ€" tive of the Br‘t‘sh Saveâ€"theâ€"Children Fund, a few cays ago.

Through these classes, for which the provincial university suplies most of the tutors and nearly all the funds, workers in any occupation have an opportunity to secure the advantages of higher education. Similar classes are conducted by the University of Toronto in Hamilton and in Ottawa. The Workers‘ Educational Association had last year its most successful seaâ€" son in Canada and hopes are enterâ€" tained that the coming season will be even better. _ The arrangement is based on the one which has been so beneficial in Great Britain and furâ€" nishes another example of the varied type of work done for the community at large by the provincial university. Announcement is made of a mass meeting of members and prospective members of the Workers‘ Educational Association in the Social Service Building of the University of Toronto on Tuesday evening, October 4th. The object is to arrange for classes durâ€" ing the winter season, to continue those formerly conducted, and to inâ€" itiate new ones. Public speaking, trade union law, and Marxian econâ€" omics are proposed in addition to economics, international finance, psyâ€" chology and logic, political philâ€" osophy, British history, English literâ€" ature and composition.

They fear that rural life has been drawn upon so heavily that the blue blood is about exhausted and that sooner or later national decay will start. It is well, of course, that every precaution be taken to preserve to the nation this great cradle of leadership. To this end it is of the highest signifâ€" eance that rural life be made not only attractive but really worth while, that the farm boy and the farm girl may have the opportunity to put every talent they possess out to usury inâ€" stead of being obliged to bury them in the ground.

Worry is quite another matter from a proper carefulness, that weighs a object ere acceptance. A man who investigates before he buys, who considers alternatives and who asks questions before deciding, who makes no leap in the dark, is not open to the reproach of one whose "folly of fret" merely leads him in frantic circles, like a tethered donkey. All his fuss and clamor issue is noâ€" thing but an ecstacy of motion and emotion. Manâ€"power is too precious to be thrown away in these gyrations that are the pantomine of futility.
