Mr Cootidge expressed the opinion ttatt with the economic information furnished by the Department of •Agriculture; better-stajeehousesand storage facilities and a better credit structure much coufd be done to take care of the ordiififry eurplua.

"The leaders in the co-operative .movement.” he said, 'with the advice of the Department of Agriculture, having prepared what 1» believed to .be-an adequate bill mMyilt these principle*,' which will be presented ?-v ♦ >>n*res* for enactment, I propose actively and energetically to seelst th»* farmers th promote their welfare through co-operative marketing.**NO FIXING O#^ PRICES

As to proposals for tj^e organisa­tion of corporations^ through which the Government would directly or indirectly fix prîtes or engage ln buying or setting fagn products, the l'reeident made this observation:

Thl* would be a dangerous ufMler- takirg. and as the emergency Is not so acute, it seems at present to have tlost much of ita support.

PRACTICAL SUdGESMONS

Few public men make speechesthese days without telling the general public that

Canada's most vital need is more population. On this point everybody is agreed. Many schemes have been proposed. But they all boil doMQV.-lo dollars and cents. T here are plenty of people in the Old World who would be glad to come to Canada if they could buy a ticket for the Atlantic journey and have a little left over on their arrival. I his is the point at which.governments will have to step in if '.hey really want to solve the population problem.

In this connection it is interesting to note some of the things which the honorary--aeewtary of thç British Passenger Agents' Association—who recently toured the Domihion from end to end—considew- ought to he done in order to make it possible for more people'.from-the‘British Ides to come to this country. Here are sôme of the conclusions which he has diawn as a result of his careful-examination of con­ditions here : ------------- h'— ~' ’------7-;——

1. There is r.esd for the extension of more elas­tic!! y in th» Empire Settlement Art-

2. There 1» need for an inquiry Into the ''dole** system. and to so amend it*to pryVent permanent-Jn- jurv being done to migration to the Dominions.

3. There is special need for helping the honestN Unemployed by liberally assisting them It migrate even to the extent of paying farea In full. If neces-

* vary. T<' do so would, «ai find work for th* worker; and (h) relieve taxation.

4. There is evident need for special low or cheap transportation rates for migrants.

6. Canada can satisfactorily absorb many thou­sands of workers annually.

6 There Is plenty of work and splendid prospects for the wilting worker on tlie^Tand, and female help— and- domestics. * J

This official of the Association points out that the foregoing conclusions are based upon exhaustive information which he received from many sources

* during his visit to Canada. He found our economic conditions excellent and saj-s that "in industry stocks ire getting exhausted, and. .following1 the harvest, the demand for manufactured goods should.start the wheels of commerce turning steadily." He points out -that there seems to be a general feeling that conditions in every respect "are showing a distinct improvement over last year, and that improvement is likely to continue."

' Reviving interest in Great Britain in overseas . settlement questions is reflected-in the new training

scheme which has just been launched. This provides for a six months' courses young unemployed men "of a class who have difficulty in finding employment hëcitnr they have had no opportunity of learning a -skilled trade." Four of these centtegiLwil! be estab­lished—two in residential areas and the other

■ ■ in rural areas.—About half the men nt the residential areas will be trained with a view to settlement over- ,*easi restricting the course to "young unmarried men willing to take up work -on the land in one of the Dominions." -

The chief condition governing the status of an applicant under this class is that he must be pro­visionally approved by a representative of Do­minion authority, and must, before entering training, kign an undertaking to remain throughout the course, and. as soon as possible thereafter, to proceed to the Dominion concerned, if finally approved for empTe£- Jfnent there. Men undergoing training will he given free traveling facilities, free board and lodging in a

Kat the training centre, a personal allowance e shillings a week in respect of a period of ap­

proved training. In the meantime, of courlfe Sien# ployment '”c5*nrf“Tnr"tiverseer'THipifc^wiH cease. In a general way the course will give training in various farm tasks, ploughing and care of livestock, repairs, milking, simple agricultural oper* étions, fencing, limber felhng* elementary woodwork* and so on.

. r ..jChiV b*pbyiQyAlx a. step .in the right'tjorstam .and should furnish good settlers for Canada. But this country's policy will have to be an aggressive one if the Dominion is to benefit.

REJECT IThphe proposecTlegislation de-* pnving notaries, other than lawyers, of their

power in the matter of conveyances, which, it is is* tended shall be confined to lawyers, should receive short shrift in the House. ITe change not only would cause considerable inconvenience, but it would work actual hardship in isolated sections of the province where members of the legal profession may not be available. Service of this kind should be free of from all vexatious restrictions, which certainly would net be the^case if only lawyers could perform them. The Times has all respect for the legal profession,

but docs not believe that the duty with which the bill introduced in the Legislature deals can be discharged by its members generally more satisfactor­ily than by properly qualified notaries. If the Legis­lature wants to do a thoroughly unpopular and un­necessary thing' it will ^pass that bill. If it wants to fuhlic interest in this mattêr it will re­ject the bill.

1 SNAPPING INTO IT"

The football match betweent teams representing Victoria High School and King George High School of Vancouver on S.tui- day was more thin a good exhibition of rugby. It was a demonstration of the interest and enthu­siasm which can be aroused when the game is played under certain auspices And amid certain settings. There were several thousand excited spectators, including a- large number of students and their friends who in­fected everybody outside that charmed circle as well al the players with their emotional reactions. The result was a contest which never lagged in interest

-for a minute and which was as enjoyable {o'those «lyctators not familiar with the points of pl«y as to tKow who knew all about them. There is nothing like inter-city school or college matches for cultivating 1 rtigby psychology on the part of the general public. Only contests of that kind can draw from spectators the contribution they must make if rugby is to be the attraction to non-players it ought 16 be. Every-

"tedv who saw Saturday's game had a good time.

NE OF OUR CONTEMPORARIES ISalarmed because the League of Nations.hes cir­

culated an estimate of the worth of a human life and, on that basis of calculation, a further estimate of the cost of the .war from that standpoint. It ?ays that the l.ragur. like all human institutions, could hardly have been expected to maintain always a higl> moral standard, and then proceeds to point out» that it is engaged in a good deal of propaganda work which is -wholly valueless,

The League of course cannot perform miracles. If only a fraction of its propaganda brings returns it will be very successful. But what most people forget i. that tin. uigan./Jtion is appealing to every race and every class. What, will convince one race and class may not convince others. But as long as it shows the futility of War it will justify itself.-

A PROPHECY FULFILLEDiLOSELY FOLLOWING THE AN-

L> nouncement that the Irish boundary has been stilled in London comes a. new and hopeful declar­ation from the President of the Free Slate.. He is firmly convinced that that agreement, signed on 1 hurs- day "marks a definite titming point in the chequered history of Ireland."

' On numerous occasions reference has been made to a statement which" Sir James Craig made soon after the.signing of the Anglo-Irish 1 reaty at the end of 1921. He then said that-"one of these days Irtsfic men will compose ell their difierences between them­selves and dwell together in peace and harmony Ibere seemed very little hope of that happy event four years ago.

Leas than fourteen days ago the boundary com­mission’s report looked like another crisis ip lush affairs. Then the Premiers of the north and south, scent to London and conferred with Mr. Baldwin. All three jiut their signatures to a new agree­ment, thresy the commission's report away, and vir­tually fulfilled Sir James Craig’s prohecy.

RADIO MUSIC i—-—

To the Editor:—In the Victoria Dally Times, Iseut» of December 6. Mr. VV. E. Perry complains that the local j broadcasting station CFCT transmits It* programmes too often andthus, prevents Mr. Perry from tuning In distant stations.

Mf. Perry and other» with the same complaint should redesign their re­ceivers and incorporate a more selec-} live tuner In their construction 1 have been a radio fan since the time broadcast stations were non-existent and have done considerable experi­menting with various types of radio receiving outfits, my present one be­ing a single tube tuned plate outfit,

ho aerial I use Is about 160 feet long, ith a sir-foot brass red for the

earth connection, which seems to give better results than the usual water pipe connection.

With this receiving outfit I have been able to tune li* KFOA, Seattle; K,P<>, San Francisco; KOO, Oakland. Cal., and KFI, !»s Angeles, and en­joy tfeelr programme* whilst CFCT was going full blast ten short blocks from where I live. I have accom­plished tldsAa1 good many time* and have experienced no interference whatever from CFCT.

Anybody can get results like mine, probably better; it’s only a matter of using a selective tuner and knowing how to" handle ' your outfit. Before criticising our local station CFCT.

It Ik asserted Dr. Gye and Mr. Bar­nard are continuing with success their recent dlscovéctés. and details of the Investigations and study of?

It Is understood chickens ami even animals twere Inoculated with the cancer germ by i>r. Ove and shortly afterward developed Uie dfseAae.

Other animals Inoculated with the dead organism were, rendered Im­mune to subsequent Ihoculatlritos1 With live bacteria. „ .

The Ixmdon Daily Mail says several laboratory woi#era under Dr. Gye and Mr. Barnard have undergone in­oculations wjtth cancer germ*, and that these germs with which Im­munisation is being, effected are not dead organisms, but living ones, sep­arated from their chemical-agents by the- two scientists.NO NEW CASES

SEVERALJ.S. CITIESAttack on Ring in New York Will be Followed by Attacks

ElsewhereNew York, Dec. 7. Evidence Jo tie

"submitted to a special grand jury here In an effort to smash the so- called Dwyer liquor syndicate and ita alleged tentacles «f bribery and cor­ruption of United States coastguard and prohibition force» has been com­piled by Assistant District Attorney Buckner and three assistants.

"Wè Intend to follow the evidence which comes into our possession no matter where it leads.” said Mr. Buckner. Where persons tn the em­ploy of the Government are impli­cated there will he no quiet resigna­tions under the expedient of silence. It is appropriate t-> clean house and dust the furniture before getting ready to entertain the bootlegger. With this policy both Gen. Andrews (Head of the prohibition enforce­ment ) nnd Major Green (assistant to Gen. Andrews) are in thorough and. determined accord.”

He also said that even the number of witnesses who would be- allowed to testify before the grand Jijry un­der promises of immunity would be limited.MORE RAIDS PLANNED

Dispatches from Washington quoted Gen. Andrews, prohibition head, as saying the arrest of william Dwyer and "twenty alleged confederates was only the start of similar demomftra tiens» throughout the country.' He said the clean-up started here would spread to Florida. Philadel­phia, Cleveland, Pittsburg, Baltimore, Chicago and Han Francisco-

District Attorney Buckner's grand ♦ ui v Inquiry will Involve even more Ilian an Inquiry in^p alleged collusion between the syndicate and members of the United State» coastguard, six of whom now a*T under arrest. It was Indicated clearly when Daniel J Keleher, a special prohibition inves­tigator. was arrésted at Freeport, N.Y

Keleher wa* said to have acted a* llajson man between members of the ring and Government agents who wanted to get*lnto the "easy money." He was held In tlfi.OOO bond.

'as a f’sub - principal" In the ring, also was arrested, bringing the total of arrests since Wednesday last to twenty-one.

Only one principal of the syndicate is at large, according to Mr. Buck­ner. lie escaped through a mistaken Identity when the first arrests were made.

Another Indication of the multiple ways In which the syndicate la charged with working was laid be­fore the district attorney to-day When it wns charged a. commercial news service had been created to supply advance tips concerning police ac­tivities to the syndicate.

Nazlmova obtained * a divorce from a Russian, whom she

left years ago. Bryant w*s married in New Milford. Conn., last month to Miss Marjorie duhootey of Eliza­beth. N.J.

In applying , for a license "he averred he had never been married letter, when it sbémed he might face arrest because it was thought he had hsan married to Nazlmava. Bryant insisted that his statement in get ting a license was correct.TOLD THE TRUTH

In .1912 tjhere was an announce ment in New York that Bryant and Nazlmova had been married. “He spoke the truth,” Nazlmova told The Courant when asked If Bryant was single when he married Mis* Gll- hooley.

“What is there to say? Every - thlng that can be said has been said. Why should the matter he stirred up further? Mr. Bryant did not per jure himself. He Is now happily married. Why bother with the mat ter?

"All that has happened since Bry­ant was married the other day has greatly hurt me.' I have been living at the top of a volcano. I am wor tied to death. For the last several days I have been hunted like an ani­mal in the woods. It hurts me to talk about this matter I cannot talk abolit It.

In Victoria a haven for such unfortunates Is to IxS found at the W.C.T.U. rescue home for girls and women on Ida Street, on whose behalf a street collection is to be taken up next Saturday.

Then there are the numerous,-chil- dreii and Infants—bv -adding these the number would be doubled.

The original quarters were on Cor­morant Street, but the accommoda - tlon thqpre soon became inadequate, and In 1904 the present home was built at 1111 Ida Street. Here there Is accomiihôdàtlon for fifteen girls— each one having n room to herself.

CMPEELLE SCORES TRIUMPH-IN

Sister of Rosa Ponselle Wins Fame After Long Financial

StruggleNew York, Dec. 7 (Associated

Press)—Years of study and compar­ative obscurity op the vaudeville and concert stage came to a triumphant fruition Saturday when Carmela Ponselle. daughter of an ice dealer of Meriden. Conn., took her sixth curtain call frqm a Metropolitan Opera House audlenvr.

Her younger sister, Rosa Pon­selle, soprano of the Metropolitan Company,, was prevented by a sudden Indisposition from attending her sister’s debut. Carmela’s triumph came at the e/id of the first scene of the fourth act of Verdi’s “Alda.” a scene in which she had held the stage alone, depicting through her singing and acting the despair and Jealousy of Amnerls, Egyptian princess, at the portals of the hall of Judgment While the one she loved. Radamew. sung by Martinello, was being con­demned to imprisonment alive in the tomb of Phta.

Carmela’s contract with the Met­ropolitan followed upon a concert last Spring on the Metropolitan stage with her sister, In which the two were united on a concert stage for the first time since Carmela had stepped aside that Rosa might have the opportunity of studying for operatic work.

The two sisters had sung In choirs and concerts, but there was money enough for ope only to enter upon the years of Study necessary to pre­pare for the opera stage. Carmela continued in concert work and vaudeville, and Rosa, obtaining an engagement with the Metropolitan scored a big success with Caruso on November 20. 1118. singing In “LaForza Del Destine.’•

But Farmers’ Solicitor Says Government Would Throttle

Pleas For Justice

Reclamation Scheme Cuts Land Values, Says Owner; Barrow Tells of Big ProfitsOwners of land in the Snmas

Keelamation Area came before the Agricultural Committee of the Legislature to-day with the assertion that Government legis­lation now before the House would throttle their efforts to get justice in taxation matters from the courts. The committee also was fold by E. B. McPhail,

r>ne of the owners' witneaaea. that the Sûmes scheme had actually cut the value of his land In half instead ot Increasing it and that euccaasful operation with present taxes was im­possible.

'rentier Oliver, after carefully rroae-ex-amining farmer witnesses, asserted emphatically that their un­derstanding of the legal aspects of the Human dispute was wrong. The Government's legislation, he said, would validate the assessment of Bu mas lands, but would not stop the Individual owners from appealing against the charges levied against

"If the bill ia passed as It sta-nds now It would be all off with the liti­gation before the court»,” David Whiteside, solicitor for the ownbrs, declared. : —

The Premier dentMt-TRETYfie legls lation would halt these proceedings, and Xk% Whiteside agreed to’postpone argument on this point.

R. W. Bhuhn^onservatlve, Salmon Arm, pointed out that the Premier had warned the committee at ils last titling that it could not bring tn any financial recommchdatiAnâ. He de­manded what the purpose of the com­mittee s investigations was.

The Premier replied that the com­mittee was expected to hear evidence and to give the owners a chance to establish, a case for some kind of re- TTëTIrnhe form of compassionate aid or otherwise. Even if the présent Sumas legislation were passed, 1-e added, significantly, this would not preclude the Government from bring­ing in a bill to give the owners some formrelief If this were considerednecessaryTAXES TOO HIGH

Mr. -McRhail and other owner» gave the committee exhaustive fig­ures to show that Humas land can­not be operated successfully with the present "taxes and Bumaa réélu malien charge* against it. Wjhile fhg Sumas dyke has been a corlsid erable benefit from an agricultural standpoint, Mr. M< Phall said, with all his other taxes he could not carry the burden placed upon him to pay for the reviamation scheme

"i can't do it and l refuae to try.** he said. "If they put a lot <>f Chink* men downi there maybe they can make It go- I rah6!-”- lie declared emphatically that

..while he had been offered $250 an acre for hts land before the recla­mation scheme started he could not sell ,lt now for half that price.

J F Cook, another Bumaa farmer, said that a tax tyf $4.60 to $5 an acre would be heavy.BOARD IGNORED

. Angus Campbell, a member of the advisory board of Sumas land.own­ers. declared that this body, which was supposed to look after the own­ers* Interests, had been Ignored by the Land Settlement Board, repre­senting the Government. Finally the Advisory.BoanUhad disbanded. Even the Municipality of Bumaa in mak­ing formal requests to the land 8qg> tlament Board for Information had been unable to get It. he said.

Mr. Campbell replied that if the farmers went ahead they would be broke and If they quit they would be broke too.

Hon. F,. D. Barrow. Minister of Agriculture, was called to testify Just before noon.

MILADY MAKES THE M0DE.8AYS

M..PEP0IEParis Couture Merely Fol­

lows the Changing Whim of Madame

Paris. Dec. 7. Whether milady or her couturier is the~ulttm*te arbiter of the mode has always been a mooted Question, and it Is not trften-Ifiat a designer hows to hi* clientele as the shaper of fashion's destiny. Accord­ing to M Paul Poiret. eminent French couturier, the Paris dressmaker is principally an opportunist who geta hie orlgina I inspiration from the mesdames of the mode.

"It la a—mistake.” said M. Pol ret. I to • think that we Parlslon drees- 1

Amkere make fashions. We try to 1 find out what yomeh wish to wear. I and supply their wgnfe. For 4ft- I stance, the erase fçr .tignclng has..,, carried" women to want the thinnest J mtUertals for their evening, gowns. end the geeoi hare to t»e designed to give the^ wearers freedom in their danclrig. We have never designed a gown "and decreed ‘This Is what ought to be- tgrorn.' We heve simply ■leslgned frowns to meet the needs of the day*.

••Consequently, it I* deliberately false for anyone to declare that we Paris dressmakers get toother and decide on certain styles or work In conjunction with the manufacturer» of dress materials. „ As a matter of fact, there is the greatest rivalry in the making of new designs, and the last person considered Is the m'anu- factureir of dress materials.

“Now-, as a matter of > fact, the styles In goWne change, very little from year to year. Only yesterday 1 had »■ letter from one of our best customers In America begging me to urge more changes in the style» be-

"Some people have declared that Paris occupies Its unique position In the fashion world because It has a large demi-monde population which Is ready to wear new models and make them popular. This Is absurd. Kyery big dressmaking establish- ment has a number of .mannequins to show off Its gowns, and there ig no denying the fact that certain popular actresses sometimes créait1 fads in certain styles. But no effort is made to ‘Impose* fashion on wo­men." , ' ' ____

The Bruins went out minus Capt Sprague Cleghorn. Red Stuart and Ueran, all out with Injuries.

The loaers surprised the fans with , a display uf combination and team work for which they have not been given credit in past games: The: game was typically the spotty vari­ety.

Winnipeg, -pec. ,7 (By R. P.

On the opening bulge there was considerable long wheat for sale and prices quickly eased off over three cent* but there was a stubborn undertone to the market, offerings being absorbed and prices reacted from the breaks.

Export sales over the week-end were said to be very light as offer­ings were small but cables later In the day carried bids cloae to a work­ing basis with a better Inquiry re­ported but actual new business could not be confirmed. Trade volume was fairly large, especially during the first hour. Outside news and local sentiment is decidedly bullish but many believe the dally advances are being overdone and the market le due for some reaction.

We may expect probably further gains this week but it vMll require constant buying and hull news to force prlcea up and giving conahïerp.- Efoh to the advance of about eighteen cents during the past seven days would advise extreme caution on the buying side and would wait for the dips The cash market was Inclined to be heavy to-day with buyers scare»* and as a result the higher grades lost about 3 cents from-Saturday.

The Faint Heart

By RUBY AYRES

Copyright, I9t5, >1/ -4 The McClure y etc* piper SynScat*

'Which tree i* it that's fallen?" the Colonel asked.

"The plant, father. The ône that looks right over the top of all the

-'■^éét. Y&tf siWriti said It would come down in a storm."

‘ We haven*t had such a storm for years," thf Colonel said. then glanced 9* Shnyle gn*i was silent, remembering the tragic happening

' ul that last time."Shayle was saying." Hahs struck

In, "that tragic things always hap­pe n t-fVthe. night of a storm, or at least thst they seem to." She tranced at Shayle and quickly away «Kiiln. "I wonder what is going to h tppen to-night.V

Hh* wished that her father would leave them together. I^he wanted tp

‘'hear what ^ayl<_ would aay to her, ■he wanted to feet,’ his arms around her. and to hide her fare against hi* shoulder and tell him that she had • «ways, always, always loved him!

THE FALLEN GIANT

“You're riot drinking the tea you were so anxious to have." the Colonel •aid, drily. And Babe hastily drained her cup

Was it her fancy, she wondered, or did Shayle seem to avoid look- in? at her? Was his heart raring as hers was" What was he thinking about?"

. . "I, have, spoken to you twire, my- d#ar, and you have not answered."

the Cqlonel said, frigidly and Babe started up, flushing and apologetic

"What did yoiT my, dad ? I was Qi earning.”

“I was asking- where your brother has gone." ,' "Jim? I - don't know. He went out_ soon after lunch. I daresay he la waiting somewhere till the storm Is over ",. .Shayle rose to his feet.

"The rain aeema to have stopped I think I’d better get back before It starts again."

.4 Cl et hack! Bab's heart seemed to * stand etill for a moment, then go

racing on furiously.She wanted to aay, “Oh. don’t go!"

but pride would not let her. If he wished to go. well! he must go, that

___was all.’••it's a good three miles tb walk, I

suppose?" the Colonel was saying."Yea." And nnvr flhayle did glance

at BSbs. but ehe was looking away.“You'd better make haste in case

thn rain starts agafn," she said un- klrrdly.

Hie fflrr seemed to quiver, 4hen h# dr« w Mmself up.

Well, if you’ll forgive me for run­ning away so soon. I’l see If my

~ coat is dry.'.'He went out of the room and Babs

walked to the window.The tftnrtü seemed to have grown

very dark and empty all at once. Was it true that he had ever really

x kissed her'’ If so, perhaps already --»■ he w«F sorry; perhaps he would

never kiss her again; perhaps he would have done the same to any girl who. had been with him at such a moment, and wdto had sp nearly lest her life.

Shayle came back.."Twlnn Is going to let me wear

his coat home. Mine’s sopping wet •till” he said. He turned to the Colonel<^TU my good-bye, sir."

The Colopel waved him away."VI come and see yott off," he

‘ said..So . they ware not to have a

moment alone.Shayle turned to Babe.:Good-ble," he said, gruffly.

Hba did not look around or give him her hand, and the n# xt momenthe had arone^.

Hh« stood at' the window and ' “watched bin» stride-aotray down the

drive, a big, burly figure in hie top Ixxds and riding breeches, crowned

: by Twhin's absurdly small coat*She did not know whether to laugh

<-r cry ns she looked after him, but ah»‘ longed with all her heart for him to turn round Just once to see If "he wss watching him. or Just to wave to her—but. no, another moment and ^he bend had swallowed him up.. Tears of hitter disappointment ruihed to Bab's eyes, but she brushed them angrily away. r

What need was there for her to fret? Just bees use her father had been too obtuse to see that two were company and three none*

Or had he done it purposely? Of course she ^new that he disap- pnn p<f of Shayle, still he loved her wUb/aA his autocratic oJUJ.heart, and Babs could not believe that he would deliberately set himself against her happiness.

And Shayle would write directly he get hope, no-doubt, and set her fur* at rest. There was no need to he unhappy, life was lying before her golden with hopes and the prom­ise of wonderful things to Come.

Warn the Colonel came back the T*hv had stopped, and a very apolo­getic w hlevy -ioukiiàg.,ffyn w as peep-Ihg out of the clouds. ------ ”

“Put on your hat and we‘11 go and

tnrpect the tree," the tCûlbnel «aid"N ery well." . 7__V..Babs obeyed willingly; her father

was in a good humor. It seemed, and no doubt at! would be well.

She tucked her hand through his arm jts they went down thf soaking wet. drive together.

Bnhs pointed to the sky."The silvery lining to the cloud,

dad," she said.‘Humph : The Colonel looked up

pessimistically. - It strikes me'It'S it false lining." he said. "We shall lisve the storm back again before long, or my name’s n«»t Wye-Smith."

He was right, too. for as th' / re­traced their steps from the fanen giant which lay filling up the broad drive In a pathetic ruin, in the dis­tance the thunder was already rum bbng again, and p#fe flashes of lightning split the sky.

At dinner time the storm was nearly as had as It had been earlier in the evening, and the Colonel, began to get fidgety about his son

Where has he gone? Somebody mut know where he’s gone?" he said. Irritably. “Jim doesn t as a rule go out any stay out w ithout Saying where he is going Ask the servants if they know. Babs."

But nobody rtad heard Jim say where he was going.

Babs spent the evening in the library with her father. The gtorm had begun to get on her nerves, and although she had a book open in her Ian she d)d not read a word of it.
