She was the daughter of the late Robert and Mrs. Lord. a niece of the late Rev; William Dobson. and was born at Ti-yon, P.E.I.. January it, 1876. She re- ceived her early education in Tryon School. later attending 'Mt. Allison University before her mar- riage to W. Brenton Lea who pre- deceased her 2'? years ago. She was a faithful and industrious member in all the activities of Tryon United Church until her health failed. In her later years she made her home with her daughters. She leaves to mourn the loss of a. loving mother the following children: Wanda (Mrs. H. M. l-iowatt); Amy (Mrs. W. F. Rog- erson); Wendell. all of Charlotte- town: and William D. of St. John. N. B.; also eight grandchildren. The following brothers and sisters also survive: Lottie, Amy and Wright of Edmonton, Alta.; Bea- trice (Mrs. H. H. Lea) of Jarvie. AltIa.; and John D. of Crapaud, P. E A short funeral service was held from the MacLean Funeral Home conducted by Rev. John T. Irwin. who also gave the address during the service at Tryon United Church assisted by Rev. E. L. Bacon. the minister of the church. Two of her favourite hymns were sung and the floral tributes silent- ly expressed the love and esteem in which she was held. . The pallbearers were Austin Smith. Fred Leard. Vernon Lord. Sheldon Dixon, Lloyd stordy and Archie Thompson. Interment was in the Tryon Cemetery. Professional cards Illl. J.

Mr. Brock Parrar and O. A. Smith (the latter a photog J ) visited the Temple of xatargama in the jungles of Ceylon to secure motion pictures for a travelogue. The photographer set up his cam- era to take a picture of the tem- ple. Just at that moment the whole party observed a native girl dancing on the steps. The girl showed plainly in the finder oi the camera. At the end of the filming she suddenly disappeared. when the film was later developed the t.emple.stood out clearly, but there was no trace of the dancing girl. Insects can adopt different de- signs. Larvae can look for all the world like ordinary twigs. Butter- flies are able to imitate other , i distasteful to their own enemies, and files can imitate bees and wasps which are avoided by the birds. The image on the retina of the eye can be "fixed". as a photo- graphic plate is fixed by dropping the eye into a solution of alum immediately after a person dies. Botanists have illuminated plants with X-rays and in this way secured a great variety of plants, most of which had no survival qualities. Recently it has been found that certain chemicals can also cause Montations. . . . Back in 1791 a. sheep rancher in Massachusetts discovered that one of his ewes had given birth to a male lamb having short. boned legs. He crossed the freak lamb with normal sheep and realized his dream-short legged oflspringc which were unable to jump fen- ces. The new strain became quite popular with sheep raiscrs for many years. or until the develop- ment of a better breed. It has taken men a long time to devise safeguards to protect themselves against usurpation by their leaders of greater power than that which has been entrusted to them by the people. Oceans of blood and rivers of BURGESS BEIITIME Continued from page 10 there is nothing like a good dinner that is filling. Little Toad wished that Old Mr. Toaxi had been around to see him swallow that worm. Later that night Little Toad found the biggest earthworm he ever had seen. It was a kind of worm called a Nightcrawler. What 'a dinner that would make! If he could Just swallow this fellow he wouldn't have to hunt for a thing more for the rest of that night. He was just about to try to swallow it when a voice right behind him said. "Don't. try it. Never try to do the impossible. A id: of time is wasted by people trying to do the impossible when 121' should have some enough to kn; . it is imposs- ible. That worm is too big for- such a person as you. I'll.swsilow it for you." This Old Mr. Toad started to do. but even he had a hard time and had to stop swallowing several times" before he got that Night- crawler down. all but his head which still hung from a. corner of Old Mr. Toad's mouth.

It is interesting to note that certain species oi animals when suddenly hrougt A into contact with other rare species. have vanished from the earth. Similar phenom- enon occur also with insects. plants and trees, the cause being para- sites, to which they were not ac- ustomed. The,eyes of an octopus have two corneas, the outer one being per- forated and the inner one divid- ln the lens into an inner and an ou r section. What is more am- azing atill, this strange sea creature's eyes have a mysterious, almost. human look. The earliest civilizations were founded on cereals. Wheat fol- lowed the march of men from.the mountains of Afghanistan into the Tigris-Europates valleys; barley came down the River Nile for Abysiilnia into Egypt, but without the benign influence of sun and rain. the earth would not have yielded her bountiful harvest of grain for the human race. The natives of Tanganyika still pound their corn for porridge with a pestle in a mortar hollowed out of a log. They grind their mealics on a. slab of stone by pushing a stone muller back and forth. They seldom use yeast, preferring unleavened bread. . Indeed, all primitive peoples resorted to this back-aching labor before the invention of the grind- ing mill. First came the hand device quern. then oxen were used to drive the millstones round, Later man learned to harness the winds for this purpose. And later still. water power came into use. Today's modern grinding mills are made up of powerful steel rollers that tear and chew the grains into a powder of ' ing fineness. The flour finally passes through a screen of very fine silk. While we have improved the method we have lost much valu- able food material in the new process. The old way of milling gave a coarse flour, but it retain- grain. Nowadays the outer skin is first removed and with it goes most of the Vitamin 13. Next goes the germ which contains all the fat and Vitamin A. Next the outer layer of the grain with most of the pectin, leaving the central portion containing little else than starch. So when we fill up on white bread we are not getting much energy food. it ARCTIC .DEP'.l'll!

KENSINGION business overboard surely ed nearly all the whole of the my sins" GUARDIAN. cnAai.o'r'rs:'row1v The following article by .Peter Inglis, Southam News Service. appeared recently in lthe Ottawa Citizen: Bummersids. P. E. I.-Air navi- gation in normal latitudes is a good sallikewalkinginthedark across a familiar room: you bump into a chair and you know you are a bit to the left of where you should be; you feel the edge of a carpet under your foot and you know how far you've gone; you reach out a hand and there. more or less where you expected "to find it, is the light switch. Air navigation in the Rianadian Arctic is more like walking in the dark across an empty and unfam- lliar gymnasium. ' The Canadian" Arctic is unlike anybody else's Arctic in one im- portant way: lt contains the mag- netic North Pole (centered at present on Prince of Wales Island. nearly 1.600 miles due north of Winnipeil. and moving slowly sootheastward.) Over the magnetic pole and for a broad area around it-an area which in practice takes in almost all Canadals Far North and Far- ther North-the basic tool of air navigation, the magnetic compass, is useless Variation Ch- -- - - It is useless because the mag- netic pole covers an area, not a point: because the pole is sur- rounded by a region of magnetic disturbance in which compass in- dications vary from day to day; because the pull on the compass needle for a long way around the rately to its small horizontal com- ponent; nnally. because variation -the angle between t"-'- ----'h and know very exactly where you are you have no way of telling where the compass is pointing. In the Arctic it is extraordinar- ily hard to tell exactly where you are from the ground beneath you. For nearly three-quarters of the year, land and ice are a. uniform white and it is diulcult to see where one ends and the other be- gins; it is equally difilcult to dis- tingulsh some types of ice from some types of land in the picture presented by a radar scope; in any case. the available maps are not completely accurate in the details of coastlines; there are none of the landmarks of nor- mal latitudes-rivers, towns. .rail- ways, roads-in the area. of mag- netic disturbance around the pole, radio reception is erratic; in any case. inlalmost totally uninhabited country there can be few radio Obviously, therefore, it has been necessary to work out new tech- niques for Arctic navigation. Eq- ually obviously. because of the particular conditions in. the Can- adian Arctic. the RCA!" has had tottgake the lead lngworking them on . Many of these techniques have CAPITOL - aircraft Air Navigation' I11 , - The Canadian Arctic been developed at I tral Navi- gation School here-Oanadsfs "University of Navigation" - in conjunction with the Defense Re- search Board.

The nature of these tests is secret. But it is a fair guess that at least some of them will be con- cerned with the most urgent of today's-navigational p. . how to get Arctic navigation on to a one-man basis. The present system requires two navigators. it is based on three main things: the grid. the astro compass and the gyro compass. The grid is an arbitrary system of lines drawn on the map. re- placing the normal parallels of latitude and meridians of longit- ude, which are a poor system of reference in polar regions because the meridians come together at the true pole. The asti-o-compass determines direction by the sun and stars (and is therefore useless during the long Arctic twilight: hence the computation of the exact length of twilight is important in Arctic navigation.) The gyro-compass is a normal instrument. subject to vagaries known as drift (caused by the rotation of the earth) and (caused by its own pole is almost straight down and t" ordmuy i,,m.u,..,..... are not mechanical nstruction) as a re-, d..",.Me enough to . .
