Do boys and girls study better in
mixed or in segregated classes2 Are
the boys inspired by the presence Of
the girls to do better work that they
may the better shine in the fair ones
eyes? Or are the girls distracted by
the boys and do poorer work? All pet
theories on the subject fall by the
wayside In the face Of the actual
facts, as demonstrated in period Of
seven years at Northwestern high
school in Detroit. According to John
e. Porter, house principal at the
school, writing in the Detroit Educa-
tional Journal, the boys do slightly bet
ter under the system OF segregated
classes and the girls do considerably
worse. Howeverand here is muni-
ton for the feminists-under either
system the scholarship Of the girls is
superior.

pictures and Frames.

Those old picture frames that go
begging around the attic or cellar may
be made into some OF the delightful
new models with little trouble and
less expense. Old white enamel or
oak frames may be treated as follows !:
With bit of glass carefully scrape off
all the enamel or polish. Sandpaper
1t to smooth finish with a coarse
sandpaper and later with a finer grade.
For soft brown print the frame will
be just right at this stage. Some Of the
newest picture frames that are find
ing place in the best shops show no
stain or color Of any kind. Artists
claim that the decorative frame de-
tracts from the beauty of the picture
within.

About the only occasions when a
mans or woman's full name il
deemed interesting or essential are on
income-tax blanks, insurance policies
and other legal documents. The COL
lcctor Of internal revenue insists on
your printing out the name. The in
surance solicitor asksyou to spell your
name carefully and so endorses it on
the face Of the policy. and In all SUBJ
sequent premium notices the name is
usually misspelled. But even to the
collector Of internal revenue and the
premium cashier you are much more
wildly present as Serial 789O65, or as
Policy Number 5,432.657. And in any
case the name is not for publication.
Thus it appears that the principal use
OF persons name is to be filed away
in some steel cabinet where 1t may be
glanced at perhaps twice year.

A tiny fishing village in France may
be expected to put on the airs Of Sc
iect watering resort before long. for
80 out OF the so inhabitants have just
come into a heritage representing 1885,
100000 francs. The money comes
from an uncle In America. While some
few of the suddenly rich fishermen will
undoubtedly leave the little village and
spend their wealth elsewhere, it is
easy to believe that the older people
will stay where they are, fishing as
usual and not letting the money make
too great difference in their lives.
Habit and tradition are strong In these
people. and they are happiest doing
that which they can do best.

Royal Treasure Securely Hidden.
There is talk of draining the Wash
an0 turning 1t into fertile farm lands.
If this were done there is just a
chance that the treasure of King John
might be recovered, for we know that
somewhere in that great sandy estu-
airy lie his golden crown, his jewels
and his treasure chests. There is an
other royal treasure lying hidden in
some rocky chasms in the mountains
of Wales. II is that Of Edward III,
which he hid in the year a26 when fly.
ing from his victorious Queen Isabella
through the wilds of Glamorganshire.
So securely was it hidden that the
search made for it was vain.-Eondon

During the month of August there
will be stereoptican lectures each Sum
day morning in place of the usual
preaching service. This is combined
service taking the place of the Sun
dav school and morning preaching
service, starting at 1920 and lasting
until IL o'clock. Those who braved
the elements last Sunday-which by
the way was a goodly number, en-
loved real treat in the lecture given
by Mr.. r. Steiner On the book "Ben
Hur," illustrated by fine set of slides
from the University of Wisconsin.
The lecture next Sunday, August
18th, will be given by Sylvester Tous-
saint on Pilgrims Progress. The
slides are from the George Bond Co.
of Chicago, and we feel that all who
can arrange to come viii be well re-
paid for the effort.
With the new arrangement of our
lecture rooms it is possible to give
these stereoptican lectures during the
day as well as at night, and this
should afford an opportunity during
the summer weather for many to en-
Joy an appropriate Sunday morning
service of praiae and entertainment.
The lecture 1or August Goth vii. be
on Van Dykes beautiful story of "The
Other Wise Man." There will be 40
fine slides illustrating the story.
On August 9th the Stereoptican
lecture will be Joseph the Incorrupt-
ible."

that 50, 100000 could be added annually
! to the value Of the dairy products oil

what the commissioner referred, but
IL has been told by excellent author
ity that several cents pound could be
added to the value OF the average YER
mont butfar if the farmer would exer-
else a little more care in handling his
milk and cream.
As'it comes to The Messenger from
this same authority, the cost Of the
extra care needed would be only a
fraction Of cent pound, so that the
several additional cents that might be
secured would be practically clear
profit. Yet, this extra attention is not
forthcoming and the dairyman IL pay

Canada starts the new year not

but with a brand new coat of arms for
| that governments official seal. A royal
proclamation has declared obsolete the
former crest composite arrange
ment OF. the different provincial coats
Of arms, which, with the creation of
each additional province, came
to have something OF the aspect Of a
patchwork quilt. Its successor, author
lied by the same royal patent, en-
blazons the characteristic chiyalric
symbols OF the four great nations from
which the present Dominion sprang
England, Scotland, Ireland and France.
and unites them with the native EN-
blem the maple leaf. The design thus
links the ancient memories of twelfth
century Plantagenet battlefelds with
the later glory of Nimy Ridge.
The main crest has as its supporters
on the right the royal lion Of England
npholding the union flag, while ON left
the "auld alliance of France and Scot
land stands typified by the Scottish
Unicorn holding aloft another flag. the
one that formerly flew from the high
ramparts OF Quebec, the feur-de lys
of roval France. These. the announce
ments points out, now reappear in
British crest for the first time since
1900, when King George III. discarded
them as being meaningless survival
OF King Edward Ills claim TO the
