TI^AVtL lfir(\f55IOf/5 TT fAH f n i\[w • ( 4 B A Flag Incident tn Gernnany Cermany bag many IncideutSkto re- late these days and the flag industry la vrorking overtime to supply the de- mand. Herr Hitler is in the saddle and the people In every city, town, village and hamlet are mere than anxi- ous to display the swastika emblem of the Nazi party â€" as the Nationalist Party is called. When we were iu Berlin last sum- mer. Mr. Treadaway. the manager of Canadian Pacific there, toM me that, for months, he had been trying to get a special house-flag made, to display In front of his office, but, when I was talking to lilm, he dldnt know when to expect it. The reason for this was In evidence wherever we went; each community was decked out, as if for a gala occasion, and I assure you that it provided a brilliant efTeet. The story I am going to tell is, how- ever, about a different circumstance â€"this happened the summer before last. We were driving through the Rhine- 'and and had visited Heidelberg, the iniversity centre known to many by ;he fact that it was the setting for the ' )opular musical comedy, "The Student ?rince." We visited the Castle there, with its English ivy garden, planted »hen an English princess lived there 18 the wife of the Elector. We saw he old buildings of the University, vith its student prison walls cut with lames of many generations of stu- lents. We had an opportunity to Irink light or dark beer in the upper ^oom of the tavern where the cele- irated duels took place an^ examined :he duelling sabres sharpened to a â- azor-like edge. Around the walls of ;his old room were many pictures of itudent groups, each class wearing its >wn distinctive uniform and, on the taces of many could be seen the ugly icars of which German students were 10 proud. We did not stay in Heidelberg on this occasion, but went to the neigh- boring town of Mannheim to spend '.he night. Mannheim is a modern city on the Rhine and is the second largest river port in Europe. It is only half an hour away from Heidelberg and possesses one i - the finest hotels I have ever been in. The city is also tn industrial centre and contains the Bunlight Soap factory, the motor fac- tory of Daimler-Benz and other large plants. Another unusual thing for an European city is the regular arrange- ments of the streets and the letters ind numbers instead of names. As we drove up to our hotel â€" a mag- nilicent structure, built, it is said, with monies borrowed from the United States â€" we noticed three large flag- staffs in front of the building. On the outer staffs were the flags of Germany ind Mannheim respectively, while on the centre staff was the Stars and Stripes. This did not e.xcite any com- uept as many Americans were tra- velling and we thought it was a ges- ture made on their account. When we entered and were having our rooms assigned, the manager said, 'You notice we have your flag up." I immediately knew what he meant, but answered him, "No, I didn't notice it." His expression changed and he said, "What, are you not Americans?" To which I replied, "Oh, yes, we are Americans all right, but we do not happen to come from the part of America to which that flag belongs." 1 saw that he was disappointed and somewhat surprised that we were all from Canada, but nothing more was said. Imagine our surprise, a few minutes later, to see an attendant haulins down the Stars and Stripes and, in its place, putting up the Vnion lack. Talk about service. \ little later, at dinner time, the hotel people wished to do us further honour.

One thing, they, as all other Europeans do, recognized the British connection and we were pro- perly thrilled with this acknowledg- ment. Many benefits accrue from travel be- sides pure emotional enjoyment. It should enlarge the mind, energize the imagination. It will vitalize the books you read and the pictures you see. Above all it should beget toleration and the better understanding of the people whom we call "foreigners." Have you ever been in a salt mine?

"Ot/Xs^S^ PoImt Hands. ^c; Recent Events From Overseas Paris Seeks to Stem TWe Of StudenU Asking Help Paris. â€" Paris is faced with a stu- dents' crisis. The Quartier Latin has closed those halcjon days of light- hearted Bohemians and the students crowd to the great schools in ever- increasing numljers, but as the stu- dents increase, jobs diminish. Examinations are made more diflfi- cult, newspapers hold investigations, the authorities issue warnings, but still the students come and the prob- lem grows. Five hundred of those who were graduated in science in 1932 are unable to tind jobs. In arts 76" are still unemployed. "Sometimes," writes Claude Belan- ger, genei-al secretary of the iJnione Nationale des Studients de France, "a medical doctor is engaged at 15 francs a day selling pharmaceutical preparations. But most of them re- main without worli with nothing in their pockets but a piece of parch- ment." The position of the art stu- dent is, if anything, worse. Urgent action is advocated. Reor- ganization of the medical and legal profession is pressed. It is suggested that from the period of the elemen- tary school the child's special apti- tudes be studied and careful counsel g:ven on the choice of a career.

Plays Great Game â€" Knows Baby Dead Birmingham, Eng. â€" Joe Bradford, Birmingham's centre forward, played a great game in the local Derby against Aston Villa recently. Yet a few hours before the match his baby had died. The baby was born two days before and he had spent the long hours be- tween then and the day of the game in an anguish of anxiety. When the news of the baby's death reached the Birmingham club an offi- cial immediately asked Bradford if he would like to retire from the game. "I will stay," he said. And he played well. Two years ago Joe Bradford was the hero of a cup final. He had been suffering for weeks from an injured leg, but if was decided -to play him in the Wembley match between Birming- ham and West Bromwich. West Bromwich won M. Bradferd scored Birmingham's only goal. Dislike Josephine Baker Helsingfors. Finland. â€" Miss Joseph- ine Baker, the colored dancer, is hav ing an unhappy time in the Baltic countries. Last week she was not allowed to perform in Estonia. Later her ap- pearance on the stage of a Helsingfors theatre caused a. riot. The famous dusky artist was as- sailed with stink bombs, accompanied by an outburst of catcalls and whist- ling. "Go back to Africal'' shouted the enraged Finns. The performance had to be broken oft. Meanwhile, outside^ the theatre, the police had to be summoned to disperse an unruly crowd. First Baby in Nuddist Colony Paris. â€" The first baby to be born in Physiopolis â€" the nudist colony on an island in the River Seine â€" has arrived to the wife of a French professor. He weighed eight pounds. The pro- fessor and his wife, both prominent members of the colony, decided upon a "100 per cent, nuddis* birth," as a scientific experiment.

Makes Predictions For This Year French Prophetess Foretells Return of Prosperity- Paris. â€" A year of peace and return- ing prosperity opened for the world on January 1, 1934. This was the prediction of Mme. Blanche de Paunac, the French pro- phetess who won fame by predicting in the middle of summer, 1918, that the war would end with an armistice on November 11. In an hypnotic sleep Mme. de Paunac made the following specific predictions for 1934: Hitler's power will l)e unbroken in 1934, but will pass away in 1935. No political revolutions will disturb the year, A great German general and two famous French statesmen will die. A king who was driven from his throne will return. There will be a big French air catastrophe, a group of planes failing to return to their point of departure. There will be a German sea disaster. Mme. de Paunac foresees no fight- ing of any sort during the year. She states that Russia will act as the world's peacemaker, preventing sev- eral nations going to war, while France, Britain and Italy will reach a working agreement. Mussolini is to enjoy good health and Italy's affairs to run smoothly. The greatest chang^ is to be the restoration of t..e monarchy in Spain during the year. In making these predictions Mme. De Paunac does not use crystal globes or other such devices. She goes into a trance and after showing suffering begins to speak. During this time her Persian cat sleeps on her shoulder. O Teaching Hens to Lay The average hen '.ays many more eggs per aiuium than formerly, iu Gt. Britain, the highest laying record in a recent competition being 232 eggs per bird in the heavy breed section, represented by white wyandottes, and 23S eggsper bird in the lighfbreed sec- tion, represented by white leghorns. The cost of feeding was about l'2d. a week per bird, while the gross profit on the 2.000 birds entered was U?. lO'od. per bird, per annum. .•\.n experimental farm, with 500 poultry and all the latest devices to induce hens to lay more eggs, is to be set up at Hull by the British Oil and Cake Mills. Ltd, The farm will have the most modern incubators and pen- ning facilities, and th? promoters hope that the result will greatly improve British poultry. Three hundred poultry breeders re- cently visited the firm's huge model poultry farm at Bilton, Hull, where they were shown the stock of 2,009 birds. They were told that the manu- facturers of poultry food had still much to learn about the direct effect on egg production of any material used in the mixtures they prepared.

Heroic Rescue From Poison Gas Son EHes for His Father â€" Deadly Vapor Takes Two Lives Coventry, Eng. â€" A son died to save his father here recently. The resident manager of the new Coventry Corporation Sewerage Works, Mr. Arthur Ceney, went into an inspection chamber on the main sludge channel and was overcome by poisonous fumes. The works manager. Samuel Toone, a veteran with 35 years' experience of sewerage management behind him, went at once to his aid. He. too, was overcome. Then John Toone. Samuel Toone'S' 19-year-old son, an apprentice to the city engineer's department, shouted for help. He could not wait whi'.e the proper equipment was brought. With the high Iniatience of youth he. too, plunged down the manhole shaft to rescue his father and his chief. He, also, succumbed to the gas. Firemen came to the rescue. Like divers, with respirators for Ue'mets and equipped with ropes to haul them and their human freight to the surface they descended into the sea of poisonous vapor. When they emerged artificial res- piration was applied to the three vic- tims. A new resuscitation apparatus ' was used. Finally ii was possible to remove S.Tmuel Toone to the Coventry and Warwickshire Hospital, where h;' lies between life and death. For two hours artificial respiration was continued on Ceney and John Toone â€" Tn vain CO.VLâ€" WRITE OUR â- WHOLESALE Department for quotations on gteani coal. The MUnes C°^ Co., Ltd..

The word spelled defeat for Mrs. Harriet Turner in a spelling contest held by Treasury Lodge '262, National Federation of Federal Employes. It spelled victory, however for Mat- thew T.

The money market is stable, and the gold cover and gold holdings in for- eign currencies of the national bank have increased. Better conditions in the capital market permitted a num- ber of loan conversions, lightening the' burden on public bodies. The Swiss government has embark- ed on a program to reduce the budget- ary deficit, and a financial recovery j law has been passed by Parliament â-  which will effect economies of about! $8,000,000 and yield $2.5.000.000 in j fresh revenue. 1 The cost of livinjr has fallen slight- 1 ly, the index figure being 131, as com- I pared to 100 for 1914. The balance j of trade has improved also. i Other encouraging symptoms are an increase of I per cent, in retail busi- ness for September and a decline in the number of applications for jobs at the labor eNchanges.
