Americans In Canada Not Asked to Forget That They Were Born
 Americans.

Farm produce today is remunera- tive. and this helps to make farm life agreeable. Those who are studying the economics of the day tell us that the strength of the nation lies in the cultivation of the soil. Farming is no longer a hand-to-mouth existence. It means independence. often afauence. but certainly independence.
 Calling at farm house, near one of the numerous thriving towns of Al berta. in Western Canada, the writer was given a definition of "indepen- dences that was accepted as quite original. The broad acres of the farm CTS land had a crop-and a splendid one. too. by the way-ripening for the reapers, work. The eyenhess of the crop. covering field after field. attract ed attention. as did also the neatness of the surroundings, the well-built sub stanud story and-a-half log house, and the well-rounded sides of the cattle.

Atlanta Ga-Because he defied Captain William H. Mover. warden of the United States penitentiary here, and refused 10 speak civilly. Charles W. Morse, the former banker, who is serving i5-year sentence. was made to spend two days in the prison duh- geon
 Morse, by his action, also lost all right to time off for good behavior up to the day of clash with the war den His good behavior suit was taken from hisa and he was put into uniform wotG by refractory crim- inals.
 While n the hospital the banker became acquainted with a youth who was serving sentence for counterfeit ing. The youth had been especially well-behaved while in the prison and was made a "trusty4 about a year ago. He and Morse became good friends. and as the young mans time in the prison was about to expire. the former banker asked him to do some business favoFs for him.
 IL is understood that the youth agreed and that Morse gave him a considerable sum of money as a re- ward. Before leaving the peniten- tiary, however, the counterfeiter told some of the other conyiets about the money Morse had given to him. and finally Warden Mover heard of it.
 As il is against the rules for a con yict to have any money in his pos session. Morse was haled before the warden and questioned concerning the transaction.
