Niagara Falls, Ontario. June g.
Make 1t possible for Niagara Falls to
manufacture enough cheese to supply
the world That is what Jose Seryent
connected with the Argentine embas-
say in Washington. would do Every
time Senor Servent looks upon tho
tons upon tons of water pouring over
the famous American and Canadian
rails he has new thrill and new
idea Of what Niagara Falls might be-
come If all of the water power from
the roaring falls was harnessed and
put to work.
AS all the South Americans here fol.
lowing the Mexican mediation confer
ences are enchanted by the falls. so is
Seryent He looks across the river
and the rising mists the waters plung-
ing from their great height and is en-
raptured. Outside of being the cham
pion cheese town of the world, Servent
believes the city would become as big
as London were the falls harnessed.
1t is wonderful" Servent declared
over and over again as he looked upon
the falls. Greater than London the
city might become if the power we're
used. London would be proud. so
proud. to. see a city like that grow up
over here And cheese, cheese, ah-
enough to supply the world"
Senior Servent's reference to Mag.
ara Falls, Canada, as a cheese city. is
along slightly different lines from re-
marks that have come from other
sources. There is only ore place
where a victim Of the mediation con
ference may feel at home and in his
element in this section That is on
Goat Island Whether there were
ever any goats on Goat Island does not
enter into the question, but when

may be taken that the time being the
island is well named.
Some one suggested that they do not
employ clerks, bartenders. cab drivers

Church Finances.

One of the problems to be settled
in connection with the meetings was
how to keep the running expenses Of
each church intact Mr. Mcconnell has
discounted in advance. and it should be
remembered that on each Sunday
morning, including next Sunday. the
regular offerings of the Irrespective
churches should be placed in envelopes
directed to their treasurer and depos-
tied in the general collection The
finance committee will sort these out
and turn them over to the treasurer Of
each church. In this way the usual Of
ferings made by members for current
expenses win not be interfered with.
Mr. Mcconnell and Mr.. Tetley both will
emphasize this matter and all members
should keep their church obligations
up easily.

Il The Searchli6ht
Pocket Movie" Camera.
llllllllasxsu..-..:.:s'

So intent has the world become upon
the art of motion picture production
that tourists have ceased to feel that
thew have done their full duty by for
eicn lands when now bringing home
their sheaves of still life photographs.
For a time they have contented them
selves to tramp through the worlds
show places. swapping here and there
scenes which they have vainly hoped
were type scenes, but soon they insisted
upon motion picture records of their
wanderings. rightly surmisinS that the
typical in life lies in motion rather
than in rest Then each tourist wished
to travel as a thoroughly equipped
movie" artist.
In order to meet these demands of a
more conscientious tourist kind, there
has been developed a camera which
stands midway between the movie"
apparatus of the theater operators and
the regulation tourist weapon Of Of
tense. This new instrument is designed
for the use of amateur photographers,
and with it both still and movie" films
may be made. The camera carries a
film long enough for $50 exposures, and
Is approximately the size of the usual
folding pocket camera. The pictures
are very small, but, with a certain
amount of motion, the tourist of today
may employ this new artillery for more
thorough demonstration of stranger
peoples before his friends.

He probably didn't think anything
about that. but was grinning to think
he had been smart enough to catch

carried me away to his home. There
he put a collar around my neck and
chained me to a post. and there I was

C. & A. CANAL REPAIRS.
Work on Link Connecting Chesa-
peake Bay and Southern Waters.

IMPROVEMENT work to the Chesapeake
and Albemarle canal, connecting the
Elizabeth river and Chesa peake bay
Carolina which was recently purchased
10y the government, is being made I'M
der the supervision of United states
Army engineers. and when the work is
completed the canal Will be consider
ably wider than it now is and vessels
drawing twelve feet of water can go
through ii On any stage of the tide.
1t is stated that the canal is now SO
full of dredees and scows used in im-
provement work that many vessel mas
tiers that bring lumber from North
Carolina to this city and ports on
Chesapeake bay are using the Lake
Drummond canal and paying tolls, in
stead of coming through the free canal.
but IL is stated IL is only question of
a few months before the last mentioned
waterway will be completed and open
to large vessels. There We're recently
built at Norfolk two barges for the in
land waterways commission, which will
be used in the canal Improvement sery-
ice.
1t is expected that the deepening of
the canal and the fact that it is free
one, will greatly increase water-car-
ried commerce between the Chesapeake
and the south, particularly if the in
lets from the Atlantic into Pamlico
sound are deepened, SO that vessels can
use the canal to get around Cape Hat
teras and then go to sea to complete
their voyages to south Atlantic ports.

Freiburg.

F'reiburg is one of the favored gate
ways into the Black Forest. 1t lies
near the head of a magnificent valley
Hells valley, strangely-which runs
straight off from the city through the
mountains. Down this delightful vaca-
ton path. defined on either side by
steep masses of gnarled, precfpitous
and twisted black rock and overarch-
ed with fir and pine. and to the sides
cushioned with the heavy green of its
forests, many hundreds of Black
Forest wanderers take their way each
year.
Despite the proximity of Helrs val
ley. Freiburg is a typical, coy German
university town, place of altogether
wonderful seq%estered haunts. of
honey student cafes, of phlegmatic,
long enduring Philistines. or dealers in
food. drink. lodgings and tobacco for
tant sojourners, it's student guests: a
place of pensiveness and sprightliness
and of the unacceptable prose of busi-
ness and common sense. 1t remains a
typical university town, as it's popula-
ton is only around the hundred thou
sand mark.
The whole city of Freiburg is domi-
mated by the single lofty spire of it's
famous cathedral This architectural
beauty is of gracious openwork, mas
sive base with an octagonal bell tower.
the whole an airy pyramid of fretwork
masonry. This spire is said to be the
earliest and most successful of its
kind.

IMPROVING CLUB GROUNDS.
Ccrinthian Yachtsmen Plan to Make
Home Attractive.

Now that the building of the new bulk
head and the dredging of basin in
front of it has been completed at the
fCorinthian Yacht Club headquarters,
over on the Virginia side of the river. at
the south end of the Highway bridge. the
committee in charge of the improvement
of the clubhouse grounds and anchorage
is busy with plans for work to be
carried out in the next month or six
weeks.
1t is proposed to complete the fill
behind the new bulkhead and to build a
substantial walkway from it out to the
point in front of the clubhouse. where
the boat landing stage will be placed.
This stage will be arranged to rise and
fall with the tides. and will always be
at level as regards the boats using it.
Slips for about fifty of the boats of
the club are to be constructed with
heavy cak piling along the front of the
bulkhead, where they can lie through
out the rough weather of the winter.
Between this and spring the grounds
about the clubhouse will be graded and
sodded, flower beds and walks laid out,
and in the coming summer it is pro-
posed to have the club home a most at
tractiye looking spot and one that will
draw members to the club.
An interesting program of smokers
and other social features is being ar
ranged for the winter months and the
members of the club are anticipating an
enjoyable non-boating season.
