Lila fairly fiew to the Ritz that‘ afternoon to keep her appointment with Farquahar. She was thorough-I ly angry. How dared he try to shadow her!

Sooner or later, she knew he's be sure w find out something. if this attempted surveillance kept on. l "I think it's too disgraceful of you, Jack. she reproached him over the tea. “I won't be followed about like this. It makes me feel a crim- inal, and besides, you've no r1ght." "I have the right of a man whose fiancee refuses openly to acknow- ledge the engagement. And don't. forget. that this is more than the conventional engagement; we’ made a marriage pledge to each other _in the presence of witnesses. In my mind, at least, it was almost as binding as a marriage ceremony." Lila nearly 1n tears. “It's humiliating, whiit doing. Think of sip!" “You saw inc in front of your father's house?" he asked quietly. "Everybody saw you." “Then why didn't you ask me to come in?" Lila made an exasperated gesture. “Haven't I told you that. I dare not? My fiance—" Farquahar interrupted her: “I am your fiance. Will you understand that? Lila, I can't. stand this walt- lng any longer. Marry me now. Mziriy me secretly, if you like. and bleak the news to your father and that infernal Shylock when you please. But marry me today."

Presbyterian Summer School At Canoe (love

This school under the control and sanctified guidance of Dr. Kanna- win. was brought to a close on the afternoon of the 11th inst. It has proved abundantly successful in cv-

land, touching with a light but firm hand upon the great missionaries who introduced the light of the gos- pel into his native land. Dr. Kan- nawin, in thanking Mr. Muir, said that "the lecture was one which ought to be given al the Presby- terian young people in Canada." Too much praise cannot be given to the student catechists who did so much to make the summer school the splendid success that 1t was. It must be a great pleasure to our Presbyterian people to know that they have such a splendid type of young men in their midst during these summer months. But for their

There is another to whom the highest praise is due. Without his strenuous efforts and untlring lab- ors, no summer school could have been held 1n P. E._ I. His powers of organization were everywhere mani- fest in the success of the school. His name is a household word 1n every Presbyterian family in the Island, and no one will everknow until a more glorious day dawns upon the Presbyterian church here what n marvellous, wonderful work has been done by the Rev. R. H. Stavert, of Hunter River.-

The thanks of the Presbytery are hereby extended to Mr. R. A. Pen- dletoli, Secretary of the Y. M. C. A. .for his great courtesy and kindness ‘in helping so well to make the so-

journ of the pupils at Canoe Cove so pleasant. - The Rev. T. A. Rogers, of Belfast, along with Mrs. Rogers and their ‘two daughters, spent Thursday ev- ening in camp, and on Friday morn- lng Mr. Rogers gave a most inspira- tional address to the students.

"Won't you join us?"

“Oh. may I? You're sure I sharrt be cle trop?" May seated herself with alacrity. "Just until my party arrives, if you're positive I shan't disturb you." Her look and tone spoke volumes.

Lila could have shaken her. She was uneasy, too. May was unusually

gushing, which meant that there‘

were claws beneath the velvet. Lila ,l'eca11eci that May was lnone too lpleased at getting into trouble with her husband on the strength of that foreign romance yarn.

"Yes-the favored one before the last," cooed May, smiling roguishly at Farquahar.

“I really don't know what you're talking about," said Lila coldly.

May laughed.

“I dare say you've found our, ._ Captain Farquahar, that Lila is the ‘soul of reticcnce. a perfect sphinx. You never know what she's up to."

"May. you're simply babbling. I don't know any Mr. Holmes." Lila was uncomfortably aware that Far- ouahar was looking at her fixedly.

"Really?" said May sweetly. “But I thought you said you knew him 1n France—that night at my dinner- party~" she stopped. with a ludic- rous expression. '

Lila had pinched her arm.

“You must have mistaken the name, May," she said coolly. "Cap- tain Farquahar and I knew a Cap- tain Holmes 1n France, but I haven't met him since I returned to Am- crica, so the incident you refer to has no possible connection."

It was rather incoherent, that ex- plantation and didn't help matters, except that it tipped May off to the fact that she was treading on very dangerous ground.

At that moment a page came to inform Farqllahar that a telephone call he had put 1n some time before hnd been answered, and he went away, with a murmured excuse.

Other lectures given were by the Rev. Scott Fulton and the Rev. Bruce Muir. Mr. Fulton dealt in a masterful fashion with the West- minster Standards. The memorable assembly began its delibera- tions on the 1st of July, 1643, and ended its regular sittings on the 22nd February, 1648, having sat 1168 times. The result of the labors of the Assembly remains in the Westminster Confession of Faith, the Larger Catechism, the Shorter Catechism, the Directory for Public Worship and the Metrics] Version of the Psalms. These great productions have effected the Church of Scotland and all her olI- shoots to the present day. Mr. Ful- ton treated his subject in such a manner as to IIISUIIIIIIZO the minds

Bird life by reason of its prcdonv inating insect. diet is the most in- dlspensible balancing force 1n nature. History records many striking examples 1n many lands where the destruction of the birds by man has been followed by dis- aster, because of the appearance of hordes of devastating insects; with the recall ofthe birds the insects were brought under control. For- tunate indeed were- these countries that the birds were not beyond re- call.

Farmers as well as city dwellers should have a thorough apprecia- tioifof the practical value as well as the esthetic value, of birds. Only in birdless countries like Egypt do 1n- sect plagues occur. In Canada at least fifty different kinds of birds feed upon destructive caterpillars and fifty other species feed on scale insects and plant lice.‘ The robin. bobolink, oriole, whipoorwill, king- bird, chicadee, wrcn, Woodpecker, flicker and even the despised black- blrd, as well as many other com- mon birds. are wholesale destroyers of injurious insects. It has been shown also that the crow does con- siderable good in this respect though probably not enough to off- set the damage he does.

One authority on this subject‘ states that chicadces will eat 200 w! 500 insects per day. Most birds will‘, take over 100 bisects each day to‘ fccd their young, in keep up their‘ high body temperature and to sup- ply 20 hours of energy on the wing.’ This authority states further that; one nighthawks stomach which was‘ examined contained 340 grasshop-i pers, 52 bugs, 3 beetles, 2 wasps and. a spider. ,

1n apple growing districts birds are indispenslble. At least 36 spew: ies of birds feed upon the codling moth, destroying, in some localltlesi 66 to 85 per cent of this destructive} apple insect. l , During an aphid outbreak 1n‘ North Carolina it was estimated that seven species of the finch fam-, 11y on one farm consumed 932, 205, aphids each day. 1
