Do Not Fear Trees.

/ don't think that anybody (boy or
otherwise) who has the knowledge Of
trees required by the test for the
merit badge In forestry viii ever be
afraid to be alone In the woods at
night, or at any other time. Once
you know what the leaves do, and
what makes them green and how the
sap runs and why (or as much OF that
"why" ns is known. and how the
wood tissue Ia formed, and how the
roots work, and what the tree does
in winter-when you know such things
about trees, you should never again
be lonesome In the woods. For though
MI these are merely scientific facts,
they will make the trees real living
things to you, and then you will begin
to understand what Is meant when
one speaks Of the trees Whispering
and of the leaves "clapping their
hands. s."-George GLADDEN. In Boys

For her I'll always take my stand;
Her blessings great are in demand,
If you're for her. give me your hand.

Her ships from ev'ry country bound;
Her money and her works are sound,
This is Gods land-T'is Holy ground

NOTE SUBMITTED
 ON IRISH PEACE
Report Is Laid Before De Valera
 At Dublin This Morning

Dublin, Sept. IS (By Associated with the British government with a view to establishing basis for peace in Ireland was believed here today to depend largely upon the re- port submitted to Ramon De Valera and his colleagues by Harry Roland and Joseph McGrath, the couriers sent to Gairloch on Monday to con- fer with Premier Lloyd George. The two couriers were expected to lay before the Irish republican leaders the explanations given by the prime minister of some features of his latest note to Dublin and there was optimism that the five plenipoten- tiaries named by the Dali Eireann yesterday to carry on the parleys with MT. Lloyd George would go to Inverness soon. There was a possi- bility however that the report of Roland and McGrath would be such that there might be a break, at least for time in the conversations that have been going on for the past two months.
 Speculation regarding the particu- lar phases of the situation at issue between MT. Lloyd George and the republican chieftains dwelt on number of points, but there seemed to be a general belief the condition laid down by the premier that the Sim Fein must abandon its demand for separation from the empire was one of the most troublesome factors in the present admittedly critical sit uation. The prime minister was de- clared to have talcitly admitted the republicans had a basis for some of their objections to his offer of dominion status to Ireland as a basis for a settlement of the century old controversy but he urged that matters be brought to the confer ence table and there discussed. Seemingly, the only hard and fast was that Ireland and the British empire must not be divided.
 Arthur Griffith, Michael Collins, Robert c. Barton, Ramon J. Duggan and George Gavan Duffy, the dele gates appointed yesterday to take part in the possible conference with of the British govrn- ment'' might, it was indicated. take the Sim Ffein reply to Inverness. There were many however who be- lieved they might wait here until

1 Tn the dairy exhibit. Dad will have a chance, and visitors to someone s home in Newington will find another blue ribbon pinned on the velvet cover on the mantle shelf next week. For the future generation, the coming president or movie actor need not fear. There will be apple pies there that one sees only in his dreams Peach pies, berry pies, and whisper it-great big yellow, sweet appetizing custards shimmying in the electric lights. Cakes, big, little and medium will be on hand. cookies and layer cakes. lemons, cocoanut and chocolate, sponge an cream, with and without icing and bread like no fac tory ever made will compete for prizes.
 Prize for Cake.
 One large American dollar will be given as a prize for the best cake, a similar amount will be awarded for the prize loaf of bread and the cham pion pie will receive not only another dollar, but will have the added dis tnction of figuring in the old-time pie eating contest.
 Chickens.
 Neither will the chickens be ne glected. Those of the human family, being supplied with the necessary es- corts, the feathered tribe will be among the central attractions. Leg horns and Plymouth Rocks will de- bate with the Shanghais and Rhode Island Reds in growing about their egg laying records and which coop is going to wear the banner of poul try achievement.
 For the best vegetable exhibit. xrh hn no nr hha TO a gold piece equivalent in value to s2.50 will be given. two-fifths of that value, or an even dollar in the more plebeian silver will repose in tthe purse of the exhibitor of the second vege- table prize.
 The old saying. Fine feathers make fine birds" will not hold good to- night when the bugles blow for the star feature of the evening. A chicken picking contest, such as even the Southern darkey could not hope to equal. will make the feathers fly for awhile.
 For the more aesthetic who do not care to stand up to the booth and eat their ice cream, a miniature Fifth avenue refreshment parlor has been arranged. Here the visitor can sit and eat ice cream amidst a bower of foliage and flowers to his or her hearts content, while the latest strains of popular melody float through the room from the open air dancing pavilion where the Maple Leaf orchestra is officiating in open air demonstrations of the terpsichor- can art.
 Tomorrow afternoon will be Chil- dren's Day. This is the day when the youngsters will show what they can do. what they have done and what they are going to do again.
 The place is: Bonnair avenue, the town is Newington, and the time is any time between this afternoon and Saturday night.

Thirteen new schools have been completed or will be shortly in the heart of Mennonite col onies where the greatest opposition to public schools was to be found.
 Despite talk of migration to Mexico and other foreign countries, no Men nonites have as yet migrated from Man itoba this year.
 In a majority of districts the Men nonites have become reconciled to the public schools, it is said, and in certain localities are renting the old Mennonite schools for use as public schools.
