Every Man a First Aider "^^^' ^^^^' ^^^ ^^^ ^"''^'y ^^^ thinking of driving to Hamilton today!" exclaimed Mrs. Harvey as her son announced his determination to motor to the Mountain City with his three chums. The party started and despite the drifts and slippery sui-face of the road all went well until they struck the grade near Dundas. Without any apparent reason the car skid- ded into the ditch. Very fortunately a Bell Telephone crew was at work near by and went immediately to the aid of the young men. Every man in the telephone crew was a skilled first aider and while one called the nearest doctor, the others rendered first aid. The doctor said their skill and promptness had undoubtedly saved the young men from much suffering and permanent injury.

I dont know just why I thought my readers would like to read this letterâ€" one thing I did think and that is that some ot them might have something to send to Italy. If you have, kindly communicate with me at the addres.s given beside this article. I met Maria some years ago. [ had two priests in my party that year and they, with a young man from the same time to drive around the curving shore. It is known as "The Pearl of the Peninsula", is a cele- brated resort, both in winter and summer and oranges, lemons and (ither citrus fruits are grown there in abundance. It is also a favourite place for artists and writers, many of whom have made their residence in Sorrento. Next week I shall tell you of a flag incident in tjie centre ot Germany. Recent Events From Overseas Trespassing No Crime. The origia of tli« notice, '"freg- passerg will be prosecuted" was ex- plained by Justice MacKinnon, at the Chester Assisizes. He said that an act was passed in the reign of George II. making it an offence to trespass after a warning had been given. As a result land owners all over the country put up notices, which constituted a warn- ing. The Act was repealed long ago, but the notice continued, although they could not he enforced. "People know they cannot be enforced. That'jS why they trespass," said the judge. Man Sticks to Record But Death Is Reward. Because he refused to break his record of never having consulted a doctor, AVilliam Buchanan died re- cently in Larbert, Scotland, after hav- ing taken mercuric chloride in mis- take tor lemonade. Buchanan consumed several dozen bottles ot lemonade every week and drank the insecticide, which had been placed in a lemonade bottle. He worked 15 hours and ate a hearty meal before feeling bad effects. He then realized he had been taking the poison but refused to let bjs wife summon medical aid.

A new scheme tor filling his churcb has been devised by a clergyman. Kstimatiug that more than 10,000 persons 'had been married from his church in the last 60 years, the Rev. J, A. V. Wallace invited 500 ot the couples to special service. While only 100 of the coui)les appeared, the little Church ot St. George's Camberwell, London, was packed to the doors with a congre- gation ot 1,:!00 others. The vicar believes that 99 put ot every 100 marriages turn out happily and it was in support of this that be sent out his invitations. on one of his own horses, lie also is a keen hunter and an unswerving supporter of his father's teetotal prln- ciplea.

The case was a sequel to a colli- sion, and the defence was that she sprained a cartilage of her knee in applying the foot-brake. The magistrates retired to their con- sulting room to view her knees. She was fined 40s and her license was suspended for two years. CRAWUNG ABOUT WITH LUMBAGO Here is some useful information for anyone troubled with that uncomfort- able complaint, lumbago. A woman writes: â€" "For years I suffered from lumbago. During wet weather, I could only turn in bed with great effort and pain, I was so stiff and ached so much. Two years ago I had both lumbago and sciatica, and crawled about for a tort- night, feeling very sorry tor myself and looking 103 instead of 33. Some- one said, 'Try Kruschen Salts,' so I did, and I have taken them ever since, with the result that I hardly ever get a hint ot lumbago these days." â€" (.Mrs.) G. P. C. Why is it that Kruschen is so effec- tive in keeping lumbago at hay'l Simp- ly because it goes right down to the root of the trouble and removes the cause, which is an impure blood- stream. Tho six salts in Kruschen keep the bloodstream pure and vigor- ous by promoting a clockwork regu- larity of all the organs of elimination, tion.

W â€" London, Ontario BeUs and Their Implications Bell-rlnglug is au art peculiar to England; we pride ourselves on it, and on our superiority to the mechani- cal carillons of the Continent; we la- ment the destruction ot the Reforma- tion, when thousands ot bells were melted down â€" au abomination but lately repeated by the Germans; we record with pride the feats ot aged bell-ringers, who achieve unnumbered changes on their peals; the earliest poem we learnt by heart is often the Inchcape Bell, and, with the mariners, we bless tho Abbot ot Aberbrothock. But when all is said and done, the bell is a survival. What did it once stand tor in England? Let's see. Once upon a time it conferred social distinction. The Saxon who held live hundred acres ot land might claim the rank ot a thane if he had a church with a bell-tower on his estate: hence the distinctive character and relative Importance of surviving Sa.\on bell towers, such as Sompting. ... It was Gundulph, Bishop ot Rochester, wbo, on hearing the sound ot bells, would sigh, "What must be the joys ot Heaven, when the hand ot man calls foj:th such melody'.'' Dunstan, himself a metal worker, gave many bells to the churches of the West, and a mighty deep-toned bell â€" sono et mole praestanti â€" to the Abbey ot Mal- mesbury Alcuin speaks of the bells ot York, and it was a Saxon thane of the name ot Lltolf who sold his flocks to buy a bell, and chuckled when he heard it ringing. "Hark, bow sweetly my sheep and my goats are bleating," while his wie capped the jest witU her gift of a second bell, that the joint har- mony might symbolize the happiness ot their marriage. In Saxon limes, therefore, England was all asouud with bells, ready to hand when the curfew should ring by Norman law, as it does to this day at Charterhouse, in the City of London. It was the first Norman abbot that, foreshadowing Lord Grimthorpe, gave St. Albans Its peal. Bishop Hythe, in the twelfth century, placed four bells iu the Tower ot Rochester Cathedral, and called them Dunstan, Paulinus, Ilbamar and Laufranc, to perpetuate the memory of his predecessors. On 1st July, 1801), Mr. Samuel Thurs- ton, the change-ringer of Norwich, rang all the church bell peals upon his hand-bells, the plain bob-triplets, bob- majors, grandsire bob-cators rnd bobs- maxiums in all their mysteries, "nobly bringing round his performance, his plain bob-triples in two minutes and three-quarters, his grandsire-bob-cators in five minutes aud fourteen seconds." This statement sounds all right, though one docs not quite know what it means.â€" From "The Mancroft Es- says," by Arthur Michael Samuel (New York: Harcourt Brace). Classified Advertising Germany Limits Number of Freshmen in Colleges Berlin. â€" Drastic reductions in the enrolment of freshmen in German col- leges during 1934 is decreed by In- terior Minister Wilheim Frick.
