F r e n c h Importers ` Consider Dealing In Canadian Fruit Ex- ," clusively. e

7 OTTAWA. Ont., Bept.|30. (By the Canadian Press)--Automatic “coin- in-the-slot" machines will be used for the sale of apples in France, acdording to o. report received from Paris by the Department of Trade and Commerco today.

veloping the French market for Canadian apples is realised when it is seen that only 2,415 barrels of apples were exported to France from the 1929 crop, while 38,261 barrels of last year’s crop found its way to that country. There were practically no shipments of Can- adian apples to France previous lo the 1929 crop. , Shipments of the 1931 apple crop Vcommonccd on septmibei- ia. Since that date the equivalent of

(Special to ilhe Guardian)

A sad tragedy occurred near Mc-

D0nald's Point. North Bedeque yesterday afternoon when Master Edward, only child of Mr- and Mrs. James E. McDonald, lost his life while out on s i-an with his

cousin, John Leckey, son of Alban Leckey. `

It appears that the two little

boys, both eight years or use. after they came from school went down to the shore from McDonald’s home, which is one of the shore farms at McDcnald's Point. They got in-

to a raft which was on the slip" and succeeded in pushing it oif. The raft began to drift out to ses, and the children became fright- ened. John lumped out and waded in water up to his neck to the shore. He at once ran to MacDonald‘s home for assistance. Neighbors went down and taking another boat soon reached the raft, but it only contained the clothes of the other little chap.

It is supposed that he had stop'

ped to take oil' his garments before following his little companions ex- ample and jumped into deep water. The water is very deep near the shore at this point and the cur- rent strong. The first little f€ll0W showed great endurance in his struggle to reach shore. The other little chip delayed a litile too long. '

Search parties were unsuccessful

in their efforts to locate the body- A further search will be conduct- ed at low tide early this mornin!-

Much sympathy is felt for the

bereaved parents as he was their only child and a loveable little fellow. Only that moming he had attended the closing services of the childrens mission in St. Paul's Church, Summerside, and had re- ceived I-ioly Communion from Rev. Father Connolly, one of the mis- sion priests.

KINGSTON, Ont., Sept., 30 -

Wandering back into o,f1am_ing room from the window where she had been taken by her husband, Mrs. John 1VlcN1cholas, blind, with her two small daughters, burned w death this morning at their home at Glendower, about 30 miles north oi’ Kingston despite the frantic at- tempts of her husband to save her. Mr. McNicholas had been sleeping downstairs and his wife and two daughters, Mary, aged eight and Margaret, aged six, and four sons. were sleeping upstairs.

During the night Mr. McNichol-

as was awakened by the intense heat and by the crackling of fire, Mr. McNicholas lost no time in gei- ting to where his wife was asleep. and after rousing her, got her to a window. On the window was a screen, and while the husband was struggling to in it cut, his blind wife wanked back into the midst of the flames, apparently making an effort to reach where she /thought the little girls were. in themeantime the boys had jump- ed from the window io safety. Mc- Nicholas made desperate efforts to get back into the room where he thought his wife had gone, but the flames were fast devouring every- thing in sight and he was driven from the house by the fire.

Complete Destruction

of Lumbering Cen- tre Is Expected.

NORTH BAY, Ollt., Sept. 30- (By the Canadian PreSS)-The lumbering town of Fossmill iS threatened with complete destruc- tion by fire. Meagre advice received here tonight was to the 'effect that most of the 100 houses in the town had been devoured and the fire was still raging, out of control.

Fcssmill is located thirty miles

southeast .of North Bay. So fierce was the conflagration that its re- flection was visible here. Early in the destnictive march of the flames the valuable property of the Fas* sett Lumber Company fell prey. In addition to the mill and other buildings of the company, a large part of ten million feet of lumber piled near the Fossmill was des- troyed.

Fire fighting equipment was

rushed by train to the thrcatcncd iown from Brent soon after the fire broke out, but the flames had gained such headway before the efforts of the fire brigade and cv- ery able bodied citizen of Fossmill could become organized that their efforts were of little avail. _____..___i__--

There is evidence that merchants across the border

are becoming alarmed over the discount on Canadian dol- lars. In their own minds they know there is nothing wrong with this country’s money. This is indicated by an an-

Powers, Inc., Rochester, to the effect that his establish- ment will accept Canadian money at its full value.

Mr. Duffy goes further, and declares: “The decline in

the exchange value of Canadian money is merely tempor- ary. Our neighbor, the Dominion of Canada, is an empire greater in area than the United States, and has unlimited resources. It is in a neighborly spirit, and as it service io our thousands of customers, that we are adopting this pol. icy of accepting Canadian money 'for full value in our
