would have liked to get at. The
majors obvious confusion and embar-
rassment did not escape him. He had
been on the point of saying-what?
"All in good time" said Narracott
to himself. Now isn't the moment
to rub him up the wrong way
Aloud he said innocently. You were
at Sittaford House, you say sir. The
lady has been there now-about how
long?"
"A couple of months"
The major was eager to escape the
result of his impudent words. 1t made
him more loquacious than usual. .
"A widow lady with her daughter
That's it."
Does she give any reason for her
choice of residence?"
well" the major rubbed his nose
obviously. "she talks lot. she's that
kind of woman-beauties OF nature
out of the world-that sort OF thing
But"
He paused rather helplessly. In
spector Narracott came to his rescue
1T didn't strike you as natural on
her part"
well, it's like this She's fash
ionable sort of woman. Dressed up 10
the nineS-daughter's smart. pretty
girl. Natural thing would be for them
to be staying at the Ritz or Clarldges
or some other big hotel somewhere
You know the sort"
Narracott nodded.
"They don't keep themselves to
themselves, do they?" he asked. You
don't think they are-well-hiding?"
Mai. Burnaby shook his head posi-
lively.
"Oh! No. nothing of that kind.
They're very Sociable-a bit too So
ciable. I mean, in little place like
Sittaford, you can't have previous en-
gagementS, and when invitations are
showered on you it's bit awkward
They're exceedingly kind, hospitable
people. but bit too hospitable fof
English ideas"
''The Colonial touch," said the In
spector.
"Yes, suppose So"
you've no reason to think they were
previously acquainted with Capt. Ire
velyan?"
Sure they weren't"
You seem very poSitive?"
"Joe would have told me-"
"And you don't think their motive
| could have been-well-to scrape ac-
| quaintance with the captain?"
This was clearly new idea to the
| major. He pondered over 1t for some
| minutes.
We'll I never thought of that. They
we're very gushing to him, certainly
Not that they got any change out OF
Joe. But, no, I think it was just
their usual manner. Overfriendly, you

Il see. Now, as to the house 1tselI
Capt: Trevelyan built that, I under
stand?"
YES"
"And nobody else has ever lived IN
it? 1-mean, it's not been let before?
Never"
Then it doesn't seem as though II

that was the attraction. It's a puzzle
Ten to one it's got nothing to DC

as an odd coincidence. This house

Miss Larpent's. Middle-aged wom-

OUR IGNORANCE OF PHYSIOL-
OGY is NOT THE TEACHERS
FAULT

For the past two years, writes our
high school teacher reader, I have
had between 40 and so boys out every
night for almost three months ..
Fl, fl, this is scandalous!
and I believe every one of
these boys is better boy both physi-
cally and mentally, as a result of his
football training Before a boy
goes out for football he must pass a
rigid physical examination by certi-
fled doctors as to his heart, lungs,
teeth, feet and other physical quail
ties.
Then in another issue Dr. Brady
takes a slam at Algebra, saying it
should be replaced by Anatomy. Now
I don't teach either and I'm not cry
ing the benefits of Algebra, but I do
believe that if Dr. Brady visited some
of the Biology classes in first class
high schools he would find taught
there great deal of human anatomy
and physiology -. END of teachers
letter..
Yeah, and a lot of sheer hooey,
too.
My slams at the farce the elemen-
tary and high schools make of the
teaching of health, hygiene, physiol-
ogy and anatomy are intended for
the high mucky-mucks, the state
heads of the schools, the superintend-
ents, the principals in some cases,
and not for the helpless teachers. I
know a teacher must teach only what
his or her superiors direct and the
teacher departs from the syllabus
only at the peril of his or her job.
It is the political accident that pre-
sides over the policies of the educa-
ton department of the state or over
the deliberations of the local board
of education that is largely to blame
for the costly joke. All degrees of
graft are concerned in the matter

Answer-You are right. It is Ques-
tionable whether contaminated sur
faces or things carry the respiratory
infections. The usual mode OF in
lection is via spray given off when
the person with the disease coughs,
sneezes, laughs or talks. The con-
versational spray, though seldom if
ever alluded to, is probably the most
common way of spread of alleged
"colds." This has range of five

If the regular school physical edu-
cation instructor has unhampered
charge of the training and coaching
of the candidates for football, that is
indeed unique and commendable. AS
a rule the football racket in high
schools is only nominally in charge
OF the regular school authorities;
there is always more or less unblush-
ing professional management by we'll
advertised and well touted profess
sional sporting gents-and this out
side interference is the evil that
makes high school football a deplor-
able influence on the boys moral
character, in my opinion.
How is it that "old grads" who
have achieved some eminence in sport
are privileged to return to high school
and help boys through the football
course, whereas graduates who have
succeeded as engineers, professional
artists and the like are never per-
mitted to come back and help the
boys and girls through chemistry or
algebra?
Precocity in childhood and youth
is tendency which we should not
encourage unnecessarily, and I be-
lieve high school football, depraved
to the level of mere sport Gas it is
for the public and all school pupils
except those few on the team, leads
to vicious precocity in far too many
instances to compensate for any &C
tual mental or physical betterment
the boys may derive from such train
ing.
