' He believes he has solved the problem, and could save the Feder- a.1 Government of the United Stat- es $110,000 a year on the food bills of less than 10,000 inmates of fed- eral prisons. "We do not want to pamper pris- oners,“ he said. “We must remem- ber that they are being punished. Bul: we mutt remember that there are none of the usual amenities of home lite in s. jail.

The President, Mrs. J. H. Baker, opened the afternoon session with the Institute Ode and Creed in unison. An address of welcome was read by Mrs. J. H. Baker and responded to by Mrs. A. Cameron.

By Boulevardier (British United Press) PARIS. ncptember 29.——(B.U.P.)— A well known Canadian who spends his time between Paris and London has exploded the myth of the cheap- ness of living in the Rencil capital. At one time it certainly was true that one could eat very cheaply in Paris, but those days are long since past. Now Paris is one of the dear- est cities in Europe. My Canadian friend estimates that it is at. least thirty per cent dearer than London. This includes both food and cloth- mg. “I made a detailed note over a period of a month both in Paris and London," he tells me. "Only one thing is cheaper in Paris-theatres. But Parisian cinemas are much dearer than across the Channel, 11; is possible to get a fairly good seat. in a London cinema for one shilling, but ten francs (the equivalent of ltd) is about the lowest price here in France." Concerning food, this Canadian discovered that his average for meals in Paris was 30 francs, roughly $1.25, whereas lfl London he paid approximately i8 francs, while he found the portions of food an appreciable falling off ln acci-f PARliilliiiTEil Morning Stock Letter I Wall Street Mirror Says:- Special to Johnston 1E Ward . “ E :-: so: §:-: fir: nsion k Ward) filtpt.

Fellows. Dominion Fruit and Vegetable, Inspector, Halifax who is here 1n| temporary charge of the depart-l ment. During the shipping season of last year at Halifax, Mir. Fellows checked very closely the condlllwl of car arrivals, also the handllnk of Prince Edward Island potatofis and turnips from car to boat. As this was practically the fxst handling of potatoes in bags in such large quantities the loaders were very careful to see that, the supplied in England much more lib- eral. He found also that the idea of automatic service of food in Par- reducing the price of meals for the average Parisian. Once, the Paris- ian spent hours every meal, paying for his meal in proportion, with the amount of the tip to the waiter increasing with every dish he ordered. Now the Parislans are trying to eat more cheaply but are still finding it difficult in spite of automats. “I can eat much more cheaply in a good restaurant in Montreal than a. mediocre cafe in Paris," my friend declares. “France's chief executive, M. Paul Doumer, is to have s. brand new railway coach in which he will go around‘ France making himself known to the populace. During the seven-years‘ term of the President of France his principal task is to go about the country and show himself to the populace, who know llim simply from what they have read about him in the newspapers. The new railroad coach has just been delivered to the State railway authorities, who are keeping it in readiness for the President's first official voyage, which is due to be- gin in a few weeks. The President, who is usually apt to complete his plans on the spur of the moment, has not yet indicated whether he will go north or south on his first propaganda voyage. He will be ac- complished by fiancee first lady of the land. The nation may know lit- tle about the President, but it knows less about Madame Doumer. La. Presidents is an exceedingly cultur- ed woman who. unlike most French women, considers that the greatest delight life can hold in store is a. long voyage. She is an enthusiastic reader of travel books, especially those dealing with the northwest of Canada. She has many friends in the Dominion who correspond with her regularly. After his preliminary trips in the new Presidential rail coach, M. Dou- mer is expected to go across to visit France's North African possessions. especially to return the visit recent- ly paid to France by thc Sultan of Morocco. If he should go to the Sultan's palaces at either Casablan- ca or Rabat, the President -will be in an atmosphere resembling the Arabian Nights. although far re- moved from Arabia. The "silly season" being in full swing, owing to the cessationof po- litical and social activities. Parisian newspapers have become quite ex- cited about the problem of why peo- ple break egg-shells aficr they have eaten the contents. This has now got to the earl of the, Academy of Inscriptions and Belle-Iiettres. which august body has debated the question from ail possible angles. Some of the mom- -._._..f-_»-.. u..- ...._._... is is winning favour because it is choosing his dishes carefully and trucks and sleighs were well pad- ded, and plenty of dilnllflgc used on boats. Nearly all cars arrived in good condition, with a few exceptions due to improper loading. Turnips loaded in refrigerator cars with side end and floor, well covered with paper and without heat arrived in good shape. In cars where heat was used the turnips were in e, wet and mouidy condi- tion caused from over heat, tem- perature being from 52 to 54 dc~ grees. bers insisted that the habit was by no means general and might be considered as a mannerism affect- ed by a few. One of the Academys members, M. Solomon Rleinach, in- sisted that. a profound connection with antiquity underlies the custom. He explained that in the days of the ancients the custom was lor families to keep serpents of the "famlliar“ order. regarded as the personifica- lion of departed ancestors. These serpents were the protectors of the home. The creatures nourished ed themselves, in addition to honey and milk, on eggs. If they had come upon egg-shells, which were appar- ently untouched but were in reality empty, they would have become en- raged ahd deserted the household. considering that a mean kind of Joke had been placed upon them. Since that date, according lo the wiseacres of the eminent Academy, egg-shells have always been brcken after the meat has been eaten. The problem is of the native (f the old conundrum as to which came first-the egg or the hen. Further, a Parisian wit points out that cooks after making lmellcts throw away the egg-shells without purposely breaking them. It is an excellent silly season to- pic. Soon after this appears in print ‘delegates of the French Govern- ment will go to Beauvais to com- inemoratc the disaster to the R101, which fell early in October at Al- lonne. a tiny village near Bcauvals. with the loss of nearly fifty lives. How vividly the tragedy remains in my memory! I was awaked in the early hours of a Sunday mom- ing with the news that a report had been received of an accident to the dlrigible. Dressed in a very brief fraction of time, I reached the Place dc POpera and began to search for a taxi to take me the forty odd miles to Beauvais. While circling around, I came upon a youthful Canadian Journalist who had cross- ed over on the R100 on iler trip from Canada and had received in- structions to go to the scene of the crash of the giant sister ship. In quick succession we were turn- ed down by various taxi-men.

Potatoes-A Regarding potatoes packed in barrels, Mr. Fellows states that the barrels were in very bad shape due to improper loading and ooopering. Practically all cars of potatoes in barrels were loaded on end in plflgb of on their bulge. l‘. There were defects also in ering. He found very few barre) properly nailed, and quite a nulfi} lber without nails. “Great ca ' ‘should be taken the supervisor so? gests," to make sure the barrels p8! properly coopered. The nails should be driven through the heads in place of under them.

Torrciltial rain made the Tnacls as slippery as icc and our chauffeur took chances going round the cor- 11ers. We arrived at Allonne in good time, however. The great airship was still ablaze, a vivid patch of white and crimson lights against the slow creeping dawn. At the libsa of the ship. the fire had cooled and they were bcginnig to bring out the pitifully charred bodies of thc-so who, only a few hours before. had set out to span the skies from Eng- land to India.
