It was an exhibition of strength that not one man in a thousand could have achievâ€" ed. Behind the action lurked the stark warning to Hewitt "You won‘t come within reach of my arm to get at Nance or Napoleon," _Followed a siight crackiing sound. The heavy recep.acle crumpled itself into a crushed ball of silver leaf and Still, without a word, Gil lowered his arm. Holding out the vase in his right hand, he curled his fingers about its shining surface. Then, as Lafe watched, those fingâ€" ors grew white and splayed b{ the dumb effort of their grip. â€" Slowly the solid sides of the vase began to dent and ‘to sag. Howitt stared as if hypnotized. Not a word did Gil speak. There was no need for words. Lafe drew back, almost cringingiy, his tanned face working. no doubt now as to Gil‘s intention. The men were not cight feet apart.

With a collie‘s strange sixth sense, sbhe knew this loathed outsider was somehow making her worshipped master unhappy. Yet, as no (l;)hysicul attack had been made upon Gil, she was at a loss how to defend him. In spite of the sneering dominance of his words, Hewitt kept his gruff voice at too low a pitch to penetrate indoors and perhaps reach Kay‘s ears, where she was humming to hersel{ as she worked in the kitchen. Gil noted this, and his hardâ€"held temper began to fray. Not daring to trust his own selfâ€"control, he kept silence, his hands clenching in helpless wrath. 3 Tanner‘s silence served to sting Hewitt to fresh ill temper, for he thought he sensed in it a tinge of the superiority which Gil always had felt toward him. Lafe glared about him. His eyes fell on Nance. | Lafe grinned down on his cousin with amused disgust. "Those are your ‘orders, hey?" he moeked. "Well, my crder are that the sheep go now.

"Those were my orders." "And I‘m wanting them to start now," said Lafe, unheeding. "I don‘t aim to be an hour late for my supper, by traipsing all the way to the station and back with them at six o‘clock. They‘re going now." "I told you to wait till the 6.58 freight, this evening," answered Gil. "It‘s too hot in the middle of the day for them to take a mile hike to the station. I want them to start in the cool of th® afternoon. Thenâ€"â€"" They‘re as wild as jack rabbits. Nance will have to drive them for us. If Sim and I try it, it‘ll take us two hours to get there.

German engineers and laborers are dredging the Scine and building a floating dock in the Belâ€" gian Congo. .A wireless transmission station for Italy, railway material for Rumania, wooden refugee huts for Greeceâ€"these are only a few of the factors that will enter into the reparaâ€" tions account.

During [ the six months the Dawes mill has , turned out reparation payments, in ((‘ash and kind, to the tune of about $125,000,000. _ During the preceding ’ï¬ve years the collections averaged | about $125,000,000 for each sixâ€"month | period. Taken at its lowest terms, the Dawes plan has quietly and automatiâ€" ;ually evoked payments at the same |rate they were collected amid the political storm and stress and finanâ€" c‘al chnos of the half decade immediâ€" ately following the peace. Upon this point the Gilbert report sounds a warning note. So far, in spite of all efforts, Germany‘s balance of trade, on the whole, has remained unfavorable. In her exchange of goods and services with the rest of the world she has received more than she has given. This situation must be corâ€" rected. | The ultimate purpose is stabllibaâ€"{ ; tion and adjustment of vast economic‘ and financial forces which came intoI %conflict as a result of the proper deâ€" | clefon on the part of the Allies that‘ lGermany should bear the major share | | of the war‘s burden. While the pre-’ ilimlnmies have been carried through" | successfully, it cannot yet be said with : | certainty whether the Dawes plan wul' , function smoothly when the real pinch | | comes, two or three years hence | But the Dawes plan !s more than automatic. tI is designed to be conâ€" tinuously expansive. Its $250,000,000 firstâ€"year payment is expected to swell by the third year to $625,000,000. By that time, if it works, Germany will be bearing the full burden commensurate with her capacity to pay. It is true that the smoothness with which payments have been made unâ€" der the Dawes plan is directly attributâ€" able to the international loan of $200,â€" 000,000 made to Germany. It would be strange indeed if with $200,000,000 as a starting point Germany could not make a turnover of $250,000,000 the first year. This, of course, is all Mr. Gilbert‘s report pretends to be. What has been accomplished during this first half year is, on the whole, a means to an end. Stabilization of German .curâ€" rency has been achieved; but that is not an end in itself, The German budâ€" get for the coming year has been balâ€" anced; that also is in the nature of preparation. So Far, So Good. The first six months of the Dawes reparations plan show a favorable balâ€" ance on the side of financial common sense and sanity.

Consequently when a camel bites a man‘s arm there is very little left of the arm, and what is left must be ampu‘ated.

In 1913 there were 50,489 cars in the Domin{â€" on, and increase of 45 per cent. over the previous year, and in 1924, 621 940. As already indicated, however, the Canadian automobile industry is yery largely concerned with the export trade. In the last year for which comâ€" plete statistics are available, exports amounted to approximately 30 per cent. of manufactured output value. Canadian imports in the last calendar year consisted of 957 freight automoâ€" biles worth $1 498 RARâ€" e eaa 222000 | _ In the month of February, 1925, Canâ€" _ada exported in all 4,008 passenger and freight automobiles worth $1,843,551, lvhlch was a trifie more than the figâ€" | ures for the preceding month and subâ€" | stantially higher than for February of \ the previous year. In addition she exâ€" i’poned automobile parts to the value | of $455,750, a substantial incremont ‘over February, 1923. In the calendar | year 1924, Canada exported i2.772 | freight automobiles worth $4,429,161; 43,883 passenger automobiles worth | $22.080,282; and parts to the value of | $4,092,049; a total value of $31,501,442. I Orient Heaviest Purchasers. ; Australia and New Zealand are the heaviest purchasers of freight avtomoâ€" , biles, followed by the United Kingiom |India, East Africa, and the Straits Setâ€" tlements are also heavy purchasers in this line. In passenger cars the prinâ€" cipal customers are New Zealand, ’Austram. and India. _ South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, Argentina and India buy heavily of parts, whilst the United States is also an extensive \purchaser, The Canadian automobile industry, bullt up very largely on United States capital, which constitutes about cighty per cent. of the total investment in the industry, has attained imporiant proâ€" portions in a very rapid manner. In the industrial census of 1921 it came within the first ten industries of Canâ€" ada and considerable progress has been made since that time. Between 1917 and 1922 the number of plants enâ€" gaged in th manufacturing industry inâ€" creased from 11 to 15; the amount of capital from $28,192,800 to $47.761,900 ; the number of employees engaged from 5,919 to 7,344; and the value of production from $54,466,273 to $81,â€" 956,429, Trade figures illustrate very clearly thet the Canadian automobile is mainâ€" taining its popularity abroad, where it is penetrating into as many countries as Canadian wheut. In particular Canâ€" rda has reached the position where she is largely the depot of automobile supply for the outlying countries of the British Empire, these being almost entirely dependent upon the Dominion. Taking the returns for the month of Februsry, Canada exported automoâ€" biles to fiftyâ€"two countries, which comâ€" prises practically the full scope of Doâ€" minion export trade.
