SURPLUS OF CANADIAN +
BUFFALO HERD FOR SALE


The Canadian government is Offer
ing 1000 buffalo for sale. They are
for the most part bulls and represent
the surplus of the herd of nearly 5000
in the National, Park at Wainwright,
Alta.
The park is the largest wild-game
preserve under fence in the world 1t
contains more than 100000 acres and
could support $4,000 buffalo readily.
But there is little winter pasturage
because of the deep SHOWS, and a vast
quantity of hay has to be cut every
year to carry the herd through the
cold season. This difficulty Will make
it necessary to limit the maximum
size of the herd to 10000 head
The Wainwright herd has developed
from 500 bison bought from Michael
Pablo of Montana in 1909. The ma
tional park is in the prairie country
that was the original habitat of the
bison. The herd is the largest in the
world. OF the millions of bison that
once roamed the continent only 9311
remain. according to the last census
of the American Bison Society.

when You Go,.Hatless

The hair net has done wonders in
its modern form to make going with
out hat pleasure. 1t is impossible
to feel any sort of comfort if our hair
is blowing in our eyes and mouths.
And the hair net helps prevent this.
Also it is impossible to feel comfort
able if we know that our hair looks
horribly untidy--and hair net helps
prevent this.
But just now there is vogue in
Paris that is of interest to every
daughter of Eve. For Paris has sane
toned the wearing of all sorts of
scarfs about the head
For evening there are bandeaus of
beaded and jeweled tissues that are
wrapped about the hair and brows.
For motoring there are wide, long
scarfs of richly colored and some
times figured fabric that are knotted
over the head.
For tennis there are bands of gay
silk that are wound and knotted
around the hair
It takes quite knack to arrange
these scarfs SO that they are truly eff
fectiye. But they give chance to dis
play a good deal of taste and judg-
ment in choosing the most becoming
manner of wearing them.
To begin with. the type of face
SHOULD be considered, and then the
way the hair is arranged must be
taken into consideration. A high knot
at the. back, with the scarf tied under
it. is good If the hair is lower. the
scarf goes over the top of the head
and low at the back, rather than over
the brows.
In Paris women wear these scarfs
on the hair when they motor to dine
at restaurant. When they reach
their destination they pull out bit
of hair on the forehead and temples
and they are charmingly unruffled by
the Washington Evening Star.

and the first act of the Irish Republic
if if were established, would probably
have TO be the granting of letters of

Yet De Valera, a citizen of the
United States, tells Irish men of I'll
ster whose ancestors have lived in the
same country for over 800 years that
they must either accept an Irish Re-
public or move out

tons no one of sound Judgment can

eminent persons in the Sim Feir
movement are men who are either not
Irish at.all or only partly so, and this
fact makes the resentment of the loyal
Irish against the revolution and It's
hackers even more bitter than il
would be if the authors of the revolu

HAwTHORNE'S B0YHOOD HOME
TO BE MADE A COMMUNITY
HOUSE By A CORPORATION

SOUTH CASCO, ME-. Sept. s.-The
house on the shores of Sebago Lake
here in which Nathaniel Hawthorne
lived as a boy and where he made his
home when he was attending Bow
doin College. is TO be preserved as
community house. Citizens and sum-
mer residents have just formed a-cor-
poration for the purpose.
Robert Manning, of Salem, Mass,
who owned thousands of acres OF land
about Sebago Lake. built the house in
1914 for. his sister. who was Haw-
thornes mother. Mrs. Hawthorne had
lost her husband at sea and lived aft
erward in retirement. Hawthorne was
ten years old when he came to the new
house with his mother, and this con-
tinued to be his home until after his
graduation from Bowdoin College in
1925, when he returned. to Salem.
The building was occupied as a
boarding house for long time after
the Hawthornes left it. Seventy years
ago it was built over into church
for which purpose it has since been
usel. 1t is big square structure OF
the colonial style of architecture.
! At the request of his uncle, the
boy Hawthorne kept diary while he
lived here and these volumes are now
in the possession of Rev. William c.
