She says the Island is the choice spot of the eastern seaboard. Here her grandfather and uncle as well as her father were ministers. Miss Stirling’: recent juvenile "The Jolly Season," should inter- est the Island children. It tells the story of Christmas in the Canad- ian North country and of the ad- venturer of two boys. Sandy, of the North country, and Tim, a New York boy, who spends Christ- mas wiih Sandy. Gaiety and humor fill this book, and there is a freshness and sin- cerity nbout it that make it moat appealing. Bits of description are delicately done and the author has given us a happy picture of a lit- tle Canadian village in northern Ontario where members oi many races and religions live peacefully together. Published last winter by Scrib- ner's, it has already had chapters selected by Macmillan’: for inclu- lion in the Gates Basic Readers. The New York Herald Tribune listed it among the outstanding juveniles of the year. Miss Stirling is now writing an- other book.

That the Federal law be chang- ed to permit the practice of in- suring to provide funds for suc- cession duty purposes without such funds forming part of an estate.

The C.S. L. owned the Great Lakes cruise ship that burned at her dock here early Sept. 17. He said he thought the exemp- tion was obtained to avoid extra cost to the owners and extensive repairs which would have af- fected the Ncronlds stability. Mr. Moffat said the chairman of the Marine Inspection Board had considered it "unreasonable" to require construction. of fire-resist- ant bulkheads in passenger ae- commodstlon since the ship was built prior to i031. The Norcnlc was built in 1918. No Exit Lights William P. Craig, 69-year-old marine inspector who signedJhe Noronic's inspection certificate last April 23, said the ship had no red exit lights, no notices directing people where to go in the event of fire, and no public address sys- fem. C. E. Reetiger of Cleveland, a survivor whose wife has been in hospital here with burns since the fire, described the holocaust es a flash fire type during which he heard no alarms. Stevens said the first alarm was received by telephone at 3:38 Lin. ADT and that his first impression B“ on reaching the dock at 3:41 was that all top decks were aflsrne from stern to bow, with some per- sons on C deck. He estimated 10 persons got off from the bow and four or five members of the crew from the stern. Stevens said bodies were evenly distributed on all decks in what had been their staterooms. He saw only signs of two persons who had managed to reach the outside deck rails. There appeared to hive been no crowding. Fire In Clolet O'Neill said a passenger, whom he did not know, stopped him in front of the linen closet on C deck and told him of there being fire inside. The witness said he ran to the Howard's office for a pass key without first frying the closet door. The youth said dense smoke bil- lowed out of the closet when the door was opened. He used. an ex- tinguisher but it didn't seem to do any good. Meanwhile, rome- one else had brought forward a hose and stuck the nozzle inside the closet. O'Neill said he was unable to say whether any water came out of the hose. He added that by now he was feeling the effects of the fire and went along C deck to the social room, turning in ihc alarm en route. After this he reported to the wheelsmsn on duty.
