goose, which were stolen from their pen
One laying goose was on the nest at the
time and she was left. Mr.. Fits missed
them yesterday morning when he went to
feed them and found that out of flock
of four only one remained. The pen is
| located at the end of the barn some dis
tance from the house, and tracks were
seen leading directly to it. Mr.. Fits is
puzzled to understand how the thief car
ried away one of the ganders without the
knowledge of someone, as the gander was
cross and inclined to be noisy when APP
preached.

Make Best Use Of Time.

Every man has the same chance IN
the use of time. One may be faster
than another, but there are usually
compromising conditions that equalize
things. Not always to the swift is
the race. Many tortoise has beaten
hares in life. It's the use of the hours
that counts. Make the minutes hum
with we'll directed industry and you
have Il profitable life in the making
It's every mans right to make the
most of himself. He does this by his
use of the minutes.

tire area of JugoSlavia, Montenegro and
Serbia is conducted az a single unit. The
total distribution IN this territory
amounted to 33, 1920 metric tons. Surplus
supplies existing in Banat and the north
ern countries of Jugo-Slavia have en-
abled relief of the interior sections of
this area without heavy shipment far IN

Rumania-Thes total deliveries for the
month were 26,O67 metric tons of bread
stuffs Owing to ice in the Danube and
the reduction in railway rolling stock
from about 1000. locomotives under pre-
war conditions to about 100 actually in
use during the month, adequate distribu-
ton inland was rendered impossible
This situation is being remedied by the
cooperation of all the allied governments,
and is expected to show improvement
during April.
1898 tons were distributed during the
month in Constantinople. The military
authorities are making further distribu-
tlons inland.
Armenia-The Relief administration
supplied 5,25l tons of breadstuffs and
condensed milk to Armenia In addi-
ton, three shiploads of food, clothing
and medical supplies have been delivered
for the Relief Commission. Here again
difficulties of inland transportation rem
der assistance difficult.
Belgium-In Belgium supplies to the
amount of 145,604 tons were delivered
during the month This included ll3, l73
tons of breadstuffs The energetic de-
velopment of the Belgian Food Ministry,
says the review, has rendered it possible
for the Government to undertake at an
early date its own purchase of supplies
and transportation, although of course
Belgium must continue to receive her
principal aid and tonnage support from
the associated governments.
Northern France-The progressive re-
sumption of the revictuailing of the &C.
cupied regions by the French Food Min
istry has proceeded so faf as to render
it possible gradually To withdraw meas
ures which have been continuous for over
four and one-half years, and such
Withdrawal should be complete by May

of foodstaffs and clothing were sent into
the devastated areas.

arrangements were completed at Brussels

To Keep Young.

The great enemy of youthfulness is
The drying-up process, and this is why
we should not only keep as much as
possible with the young but should
enter into their joys, their plays, with
Zest and enthusiasm. We should romp
and play with them, interest ourselves
IN the things that delight them, in
stead of pushing children away FROM
us and restraining them all the time,
regarding them as a nuisance and
pore. Children were given us to keep
US youthful, to keep our sympathies
fresh.-Exchange.

rector-G General of Relief, has issued re-
view of the measures carried out by
the United States, Great Britain, France
and Italy during March through the CO.
ordination of the Supreme Economic
Council. The total value of supplies dis
tributed in the month was approximately
S95, 100000. of which all but about 49,
100000 was furnished on basis of de-
ferred payment.
The supplies amounted to 38S,04l tons

Poland received 5l,745 tons. Under
the terms, of the armistiee arrangements
for shipment through Dancing, says Mr..
Hoover, have proceeded with great
smoothness and dispatch as high as
$500 tons day by rail from Danzing to

sections threatened with critical famine
conditions have received relief.
Finland during the month received
26,344 tons of supplies About 10000
tons were furnished under replacement

/ Distribution is generally speeding into
/ the outlying points, and the straw bread

Some difficulties have been met with
from ice and mines, one ship having
been lost and another badly crushed. a
summary follows:
/ Baltic States-PFeliminary measures
for the establishment of regular supplies
to the coastal areas in the Baltic States
have been undertaken. Two thousand
seven hundred and ffty-three metric
tons of breadstuff were actually deliv
cred during the month
Czecho-Slovakia received 20.9ll met
ric tons, including 26,2S0 tons of bread
stuff The distribution in this terriory
was less during the month than had
been hoped for, owing to the difficulties
| of railway transportation from the Adri

supplies arrangements have been made
for snlpmeht through HamDuFg, py way
