TurbeViIIe.

Tie leading social event OF the past
week was the shower given by the en-
broidery club to Mrs. E. r. Morris,
until recently Miss Pauline Jones, on
Friday afternoon. When all the mem.
bers had assembled each took part ir a
fora wedding story by answering
questions with the names of flowers.
Mrs. D. L. Green won first prize. d
lovely calendar containing her fortune.
The members then wrote wishes to
the bride. Refreshments consisting Of
sandwiches and tea were served and on
the brides plate was a note written in
verss telling her where TO look for her
first present. In this package another
verse told where the second was to be
found, and so 90 until many useful ard
valuable presents were collected.
Mrs. NJ. L. Turbevile entertained
the embroidery club last Wednesday
afternoon. During the business meet
Ing officers for the year were elected
as follows: President, Mrs. W: H
Woods; vice-president, Mrs. c. E.
Gamble; Secretary and Treasurer, Mrs.

From Quill to Steel.

Writing implements changed consid.
erably for the better during Sir Walter
Gilbey's long spell Of life. Though
quill pens are still in use," he remarks
in his 'Recollections Of Seventy
Years." 81 remember the time when
one seldom saw any other kind. Steel
pens in their early days were expen-
sive and i'll made, and few people used
them. The paper we had seventy
years ago may have teen partly to
blame; it had neither the substance
nor the surface we take as matter OF
course nowadays. remember when
envelopes came into use, and what a
boon they were considered after the
old system of closing letters with
waters or wax. Before envelopes were
invented letters were always written
with an eye to the position Of the
wafer or seal, ( blank space being left
to correspond Nth the space where
this would be put OF the outside, lest
the written portion should be torn in
opening"

Russians Prayer for His Horse.


The Russians are in the habit Of
using the following prayer for their
horses before going into action: And
for these also, 0 Lord, the humble
beasts who with US bear the burden
and heat Of the day, and offer their
guileless lives for the well-being Of
their countries, we suppIcate thy
great tenderness Of heart, for thou
hast promised tc save both man and
beast, and great is thy loving kind
ness, o Master, Saviour Of the world.
Lord have mercy" Those also who
have travelled over some Of the wide
spaces Of Russia and Siberia will ap-
preeiate the simple trust shown In it,
for Russians havs often to face
dangers alone on horseback in their
great country even in times Of peace.

Flowers Bloom on Iceberas.


Arctic explorers often report the dis
covery of flowers blooming OF icebergs.
The explanation Of this is as follows:
It appears that some animals carry
on their feet a growth Of moss, which
is deposited on the ice while it is, at
tached to the mainland in polar re-
gions. In time this decays and forms
a shallow soil in which the seed Of
buttercups and dandelions often find a
lodging. borne by currents Of wind
that doubtless caught them up in some
southern cline. These take root and
bloom when the great cleaning Ice
berg floats out to sea and is carried
southwark, where the soft winds melt
the surface and give the plants the
moisture they need.

Elephant Gave Sick Soldier a Pill.

In the Island of Ceylon, where there
are great many elephants, there was
a young one which had been caught
and tanned when it was little thing.
The doctors at a hospital used to take
it round tire wards with them in the
morning, when it would see the sick
soldiers take their medicines and pills.
One morning native soldier dropped
his pill on the floor. In an instant the
elephant picked it up with its trunk,
popped the pill into the mans open
mouth, and, with great puff, blew it
down. The elephant in its wild state
plucks tender leaves from the trees
with its trunk; food growing about
the roots Of trees it digs up with its
tusks. It takes up water with its
trunk and pours it down its throat.
When the flies worry, it breaks off
the branch Of a tree, and, making a
hand of it's trunk, uses the branch like
fan.-From The Chiids. Book OF

ings, and which, by their act,
was endorsed by the people.
Talk about your referendum,
the primary of last summer
was a referendum on a good
number of important questions
of state policy, and I am anxious
to aid in giving a trial to those
matters endorsed by the people
when they had,a a full and unre.
stricted opportunity to express
themselves.
Governor Manning stood for
law enforcement, all of US
should be willing to join him in
this, but if the idea is that he
can carry out this promise with
out the aid of those who profess
to stand for that pinciple they
are doomed to disappointment.
The Governor can execute the
laws as provided through legal
procedure and through the
officers in every town and coun-
| ty in the State, it is not his
province to play the role of de-
tective, police, sheriff, magis'
trate, constable, witness and
| Juror, therefore be must rely
upon an honest administration
of the laws by all those whose
duty it is to enforce the law,
which includes witness who give
testimony as well as jurors who
are charged with the trial OF
causes. Lets all of US do our
part and I will guarantee that the
Chief Executive will do his.
