The Book of Sports was proc
lamation by James l, who, in this
publication, in 1918, signifed to his
people the royal pleasure with re-
gard to what sports, games and
amusements might be practiced on
Sunday. The king intimated that
"no lawful recreation should be
barred on that day to his good peo.
pie. . The sports forbidden on Sun
days were bear and bull fighting,
bowling and interludes. Those who
did not attend church were not al
lowed to join in the sports. and no
one could &c out of his parish to
join the sports of another parish.
The amusements allowed were dane.
ing, archery, leaping, vaulting, May
games, Whitsun ales and the set,
ting up of May poles.

Come in while our stock is complete and see
it in all it's beauty.
J. Friend & Son,

among cultured people there really
seemed no reason why she should
not couch her sentiments III pure,
substantial Anglo-Saxon. Neither
did she affect an accent. Atleast she
was not aware that she did. After
arriving in New York, however,
she learned that she not only had
an accent, but that it was a many
sided affair that was truly perpleX-
ing.
She attended a reception one even
ing where literary and artistic peo-
pie predominated. The first person
she talked with was man with a
bushy red beard and gold eyeglasses.
II am SO glad, madam" he said
in the course of the conversation,
ito know that you are from my
town. That Boston accent is bound
to betray the speaker wherever it
may be heard. a."
The Chicago woman flashed him
one keen glance; then, seeing that
he was in earnest, she said:
81 fear you have made mistake.
! am from Chicago"
Soon after she began talking to
an elderly woman.
"You are from Georgia, of
course, said the older woman. Il
can always tell Georgian any
where. There is nobody Oh earth
who pronounces as and us like a
person born and bred in that state. y
And again was the Chicago woman
forced to proclaim the city of her
nativity.
Later young man commented on
her accent. From Nova Scotia, of
course, he said pleasantly. Il hail
from there myself, and it's pleas
ure to see some one who speaks as
they do at home. The minute you
pronounced my name l knew you
we're from my part of the country.
Nobody else could say it with just
that accent" Again she gasped ou,
something about Chicago.
A half hour later another mar
claimed her for a kindred spirit.
"I've been lonesome and out Of
place tonight" he said. Nobody
here from my section of the globe
You're the first person I've met al
evening that halls from west of the

been buying London exchange and
paying many dollars annually for
the same. Now the secretary issues
a litter of credit to the treasurer of
the mission, in Brazil, for example
On this letter the treasurer receiv-
ing it draws drafts up to its amount,
which drafts he gets cashed at his
local bank at the current rate of ex.
change. The same advantages in
saving of cost Of exchange, in inter-
est and in time accrue as under the
plan employed by the Methodist
board
1.-THE Presbyterian board still
uses drafts on London. The treas
urer of the foreign board draws a
draft on the English bank. in this
bank he keeps balance by buying
bills of exchange here. AS interest
is allowed Oh balances by the Lon.
don bank, little is lost except the
cost of the bill of exchange. Under
all of these plans the amount the
missionary gets varies, of course,
with the fluctuation in the exchange
rate.
In Africa the drafts of the Meth.
+ odist board are similar, in both ap-
pearance and availability, to United
States money. Some are issued for
as small sum as 25 cents. They
pass as readily as currency all along
the coast and in many parts of the
interior. Often they are many
months-in some cases years-in
being returned to the home Office
for redemption"

James Rosborough returned last night from the southern part of Mohave county, where he had been with Dan Murphy of Needles and MT. Davis, representing the London Development Company. They were unable to cross Bill Williams Fork on account of high water and quick sand. Messrs. Davis and Murphy will visit this part of the county to get an idea of the amount of ore that can be secured should a smelter be erected at the Needles.

Now is the time to get to work on the Stockton Hill tunnel. Nowhere on the Pacific coast can greater bodies of ore be cut by tunnel than at that point in the Cer5at range of mountains. The tunnel, as surveyed. will cut the lodges at a depth of 1900 feet. All of the mines are now under water and cannot now be worked without putting in costly ma- chinery.

The road over Union Pass is in la mentable state of dilapidation. The soil has been washed out from the roadbed leaving nothing but mass of boulders to be driven oyer by everybody who is unfortunate enough to have to cross the mountain. A few hundred dollars would make a roadbed along the side of the canyon that would remain lDtact for years to come and prove a great con- venience to the travelling public.
