In connection with the celebra-
lion this week in honor of the cen
tenary of Ottawa, the capital of
the Dominion, the fact that Mar
quis wheat was originated at the
Canadian Governments central
experiment, al farm by on of its
workers, is to be emphasized. By
this discovery in 1904 DR.. Charles
E. Saunders, who was then the
Government cerealist, has in
creased not only the agricultural
wealth of Canada by many millions
Of dollars, but also that of the
hard axheat-growing area of the
United States, for 90 per cent of
the Spring wheat grown in Canada
and so per cent of that produced
in the States is Marquis. This
famous variety of wheat which has
won more world prizes thans any
other is the product of a long
series of experiments. DR.. Saun-
ders, whom the credit for its
development belongs, is now living
in retirement in Ottawa, on a
handsome annuity granted by a
country that appreciates his great
services to agriculture.

MONROE
TODAY
If Mother Steps
Out" What Then?

Have you any idea what's going
on around you? What do you
know about your neighbors? Are
they happy? Do you ever stop to
think that in this great throbbing
existence of ours that we call
''life" drama is being enacted
daily by players who have never
had any ideas about going on the
stage?
For instance, in New York City,
just last year, something happen
ed which was known to only few
persons. Now-the news has
come out.
Most likely, you have never even
heard of the Hugh Westcourts.
They are wealthy couple whose
marriage seems to have gone on
the rocks. Hugh and Ethel had
one daughter, crazy, jazz-mad
flapper, who liked to hit the bright
lights. And her father had some
what the same tendencies himself.
According to the story which is
told, one night, while dancing with
her youthful fiance, Kenneth
Cobb, Kittens started to flirt with
Jerry Naughton, an understanding
bachelor. OF course, Kenneth be-
came irritated, and the more he
showed his annoyance, the more
she continued. Finally the eve-
ming was over, but not the flirta-
ton.
In despair, Kenneth appealed to
Mrs. Westcourt for help, and she
set out to put crimp in this UNI
known's naughty line. But on
meeting him she, too, fell deeply
in love, and he with her. So as
they say in the fable, wasn't that
a pretty dish to set before the
king?.
What happened then? Did the
daughter just resign or did she stay
to contest her motner7 How did
the father take it? Did he try to
bring his family together?

which audiences at the Monroe
Theatre viii find today. when

TAOURIRT, Morocco, April 2O.-Si
Mohammed Azekans, head of the Riff
fan peace delegation, has issued a
public statement declaring that the
allied French-Spanish invaders of his
country included in their terms for
the declaration of an armistice two
conditions which the delegation be-
lieve will not be accepted by Abd-el
Krim. These are that all Spanish and
French prisoners held by the Riffians
shall Immediately and Internationally
be released and that the Spaniards
and the French be permitted to occupy
certain position now held by the Riff
fans. The declaration points out that
if the invaders are granted these de-
mands and no agreement is reached in
the negotiations the Rifians will have
lost all their advantages gained in the
bitter months of fighting.
Abd-el Krim's delegates have been
given five days in which to bring back
his answer to this astounding and in
solent proposal. The French loaned
the Riff1ans an airplane to carry them
back to Agadir, from whence they will
make their way into their native coun-
try.
