casion for holding the third anniyer-

have the keynote of success. Papers
were read and reminiscent talks were
INDUCED in aud music rendered by the

When the late Bishop Selwyn hrst

Sea islands he. found the natives in
various islands very tractable. The fact
however. that the islanders went alb
solutely naked caused the good bishop
come anxiety and he resolved to direct
part OF his efforts to get them to wear
at least the minimum OF clothing
He therefore obtained some bright
ly colored calico and iert it lying care
lessly about his hut. knowing well that
the bright colors would soon attract
the attention OF the natives.
An old native lady soon afterwards
called and -bishopy" allowed her to
eye the cloth for some time. AT last
he picked up . piece. and. Offering 1t to
the native. said that he would give
1t to her II she would wear it
She departed in great glee, but re-
turned the following day with down

In 1897 Col. Tate, with the Legion

ing to march on and burn Bristol
When the expedition appeared OF the
coast there was only handful OF vol

Lord Cawdor, who was In command.
mustered all the WelahWomen he
could gather together. Each of these
wore long red cloak. descending
petticoat fashion almost to her heels.
and thus attirsd they were made to
march and countermarch among the
hills. presenting themselves at differ
ent points to the view OF the enemy
in such q way As to give the impress
sion of red-uniformed troops taking
up position. The French were so
puzzled by their Appearances that, al
though they landed. they could not
make up their minds to advance until
suficient time had elapsed to raise
the country and bring forward q real
force strong enough to beat them
back. Another case in point was fur
nished by the milkmaids Of bort. in
Holland. who gave timely warning Of
