In an inter- view with a Guardian representa- tlvcgMrs. Schumbncker explained 2i little of the wonderful work flint this orrleg‘, uhicli is affiliated with the Itiasonlc Order, ls doing lhl'(l"ffll0ilt tlic world, not only in the British Empire and the United States, but in China, Iiidiii, Ztlr-xico, Porto Rico, Cuba, Pziiiairia, Philippine Isliiiids, Alaska. Iceland and to some extent iii Italy. lvlrs. Scliuiribackcr found the work inost interesting and liicl visilcd all the Chapters all over lllC world with the exception of Alaska. lvlrs. Schumbackcr came to t-lie Is- land from Maine, wlicre she had vis- ited several chapters. During her visit to New Brunswick she liad met Mr. John Hamill, ex-governor of Iowa, who was the Most Worthy Grand Patron of the General Grand Chapter of the world, who was the guest of the Grniid Lodge of the N.B.. A.F._ and A.M. Ex-Governor Hamill regretted very riiiich that he could nor, spare the time to visit the Island lodges. especially as he had visited Nova Scotia last year.

The Eastern Star is the largest woman's organization iii the ivorld and has its headquarters in Wash- ington, D.C. It first started in France but was not very active. For over eighty years it has been on a firm foundation on this continent, and has two million members in Canada and the U. S. A. Every province in Canada has the honour of being represented with the Grand Chapter with the exception of N. S. and P, E. I. Mrs. Scliumbacker found that the Chinese made excel- lent Masons and the sister order was also. very strong among the women. It was not satisfactory in Japan, ac- cording to their creeds the Japan- ese were not allowed to have secret societies. Nothing could be clone in Germany and the order was not very rttrong in European countries. Mrs. Ischumbacker found much to inter- 05b her during her travels and was table to learn a great deal of the customs and traditions of the people inf the different countries she visited. IBhe said that lt takes years of study ‘to fit one for the head office of the Eastern Star and that, it can only some to a Grand Chapter once ev- ery 150 years, and the candidate is selected at the triennal assembly which is held at different places ev- ery three years. The next triennial meeting is to be held on Nov. 18th at Tampa, Florida. Mrs. Schum- backer is the first Canadian to have ever held this high office.

The report of the last triennial as- sembly showed that the order had spent over four million dollars in charitable works, which was its main objective. They also kept up homes for the aged and had a splendid stu- dent gift and loan fund for children of members who would not be able to receive an education otherwise. Ivlrs. Schumbaoker was very pleased with the Island scenery and charm- ing hospitality of the people. Arid was very much pleased with the re-

iceptlon of the Princess Lodge at Stanley Bridge, whose Worthy Mat- ron, Mrs. Wallace MacKa-y and other members had treated her with gin/at kindness and hospitality. Mrs. IBwhumbacl-rei‘ leaves this morning for Montague then Eldon and flii-

Bill Will Curb High-pressure Stock Salesmen

(C. P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

OTTAWA, May Zil-The House of Commons took the first step today to spike the .work of high-pressure reviewed the Consoldiiited Companies Act which practically remodels the laws governing company formation.

Designed to stop fraudulent stock promotions, the bill would make it impossible to sell promotion stock except through a prospectus, ap- proved by the Secretary of State. Among other provisions, fines and imprisonment would be established for any house-to-house stock can- vasser or any organization that used a telephone and a sucker list to promote sales. Penalties would range from $500 for a. first offence to $1.000 and a year in Jail for sub- sequent convictions.

One hundred and seventy five sections were passed through com- mittee stage this afternoon while the house was in a benevolent mood. The bill contains 208 clauses, those Standing over for further con- sideration relating mostly to issuing prospectuses arid ~coinpany audits. The bill was sponsored by Secret- ary of State Charles H. Cahan. There were only two stumbling blocks today, the first when several members asked the State Secretary what supervision he intended to exercise over company capitaliza- tion and the second over a clause giving employees the right to sue company directors for wales. Clause after clause passed as quick- ly as read by the chairman. Under the present companies act, an employee of a company may sue a director for back wages within a year of the time of default. The Secretary of State wanted to change this to two months, telling the house there had been wholesale resignations of directors in the past two or three years when companies became shaky and stopped paying wages. By resigning, they escaped liability but often the companies went bankrupt without their guid- ance. .

Paul Mercier. Lib, St. Henri- Montreai, suggested it should be three months but E. J. Garland. United Farm member for Bow Riv- er could see no reason why it should be reduced from s. year. The Sec- retary of State offered to raise it to six months. which finally Passed without a vote.

It is understood that he will be canonized under Shinto rites, that a shrine of the national religion will be erected to his memory and that his soul will be worshipped there by future generations.

Togo was born to a samurai fain- ily of the Satsuma clan near Ka- goshima December 32, 1M7. He was only 12 years old when he began to train for a. career as a fighting man and four years later he went into his country's infant navy. At the age of 21 he was sent to Eng- land, remaining them eight years and studying under experts of the British navy.

By 1894 he had risen to the rank of captain in command of the cruiser Naniwa. Wit-h the vessel on July 25, he sank a Chinese troop- ship en route to Ko-ea. The action precipitated the war which drove China out of Korea and eventuated later in annexation of the hermit kingdom to Japan.

Ha was a full fledge admiral in command of the flee; when the. wai- with Russia started ten years later.

In 1911 he mpresented his sov- ereign at ihe coronation of King George V in England, returning by way of America, The United States

;senate gave him an official recep-

tion and he was banqueted by gov- ernors of state and mayors wherev- er he halted on his journey across the country.

Togo's last official service was as tutor to the then crown prince, the present Emperor I-Iirohibo. He in- stilled in the future ruler the code of the samurai, but saw to it also that there was plenty of education in modern science, still a hobby with I-llrohlio.

Togo married on his return from his studies lri England. His wife also lived io a great age. She was a niece of Roeriin of Mito, a patriot who became famous by assassinat- ing in 1860 Il Kamon no Kaml. prime minister of the last of the shogiins. Their son, Tskeshi Togo, is chief horticulturist of the de- partment of the imperial household and a specialist in growing chrysan- the-mums.

THE BATTLE CODE OF A AMUII. I

B A

Admiral ‘logo's battle oode, taught in young Japanese naval officers. was explained by the old hero him- self in_1932 in these terms:

"Don't be worried if the enemy's guns are of greater range than yours. If your adversary! sword is longer than yours, close with him.

"Once the fight is joined cease to worry about victory or defeat. Simply do your best. He who fears defeat is already beaten by his own nervousness.

"If you would command. do it from a post in the thick of m-

fight. 1 always fought with my.‘

flagship leading the battleline. Un-

less you are on the spot it is im-,

possible w seiae the oppoztunities‘

of the moment. to respond quickly to the demands of the situation.

“To command is not to scold or to irritate. The real leader must, inspire the whole fleet by his do. rneaner."
