Clocks have an especial fascina-

unhurried and unfeeling, is inhu-
man indeed. _
When men first invented an arti-
ficial means of recording time they
invented the first robot. And now
that the robot has been harnessed
to electricity the secret of perpetual
motion is in slight, and the last
frail excause for unpunctuality has
been swept away. -
The Exhibition of Clocks now be-
ing shown i.n London is extremely
interesting. Clocks of a.ll ages, from
models showing the earliest known
method of recording time to shin-
ing little engines encased in steel
and mirror glass personifylng the
present day, are on display. A
striking example of the changes
which have been wrought during
the past twenty-five years is mani-
fest.
There is s. group of clocks dated
1910-the year of the King‘s'acces-
sion--flamboyant affairs of marble,
gilt, or bronze, A loan collection is
in the case adjoining them. There
is comparatively small difference
between these 1910 models and
those made two and three hundred
years earlier.
But match them with the
wonderful clocks of today and
tomorrow, and you will see changes
so great that the same name seems
hardiy applicable. '
These newest clocks arc like mo-
dern life itself-hard, brittle, shin-
ing, crypde; devoid of everything
that could possibly be considered
superfluous. Detail in the way of
minutes has been obliterated. Fi-

Health Insurance
At Life Guard
MONTREAL, June l3-lC.P_l-
An outline of a “nearly perfect"
plan for state health -insurance
which would safeguard the health
of wage camers, farmers and other
persons of small or moderate ln-
°0m€. pay insurance benefits to the
ill. and put doctors on the govern-
ment pay-roll, was laid today before
the 62nd annual meeting of the
National Conference cf Social Wozk
by H. M. Cassidy, Director of So-
cial Welfare, victoria, B.C.
The plan itself is one proposed
for adoption by the government of
British Columbia-the first, Mr.
Cassidy declared. to provide for a
comprehensive system of health in-
surance in Canada. The British
Columbia plan, he said, was pres-
ented to the provincial legislature
last March "as a basis for discus-
sion with a view to formulating
finally a health insurance measure
for adoption at the next ssmion of
the legislature," and has men cirz
culatcd among the people of .the
province for their informal consid-
eration before any flnlil action is
taken.
Highlights ol the plan, li/lr. cas-
sidy said, are that when fully in
operation it is designed to cover
abcui. 75 per cont of the population
UI U10 D1‘0Vll‘|CC§ it insures both
t‘nlpl0_Vccs and others who are carn-
ing less than $200 n mollth and
their dependents; and lllsllrcs farm-
ers and their families and indigent
persons; it is a voluntary nl'i°an5_ve-
ment; it provides complete hospital
and medical service for the ill; and
it is designed so as to be kept frec
of politics.
"In principle.” he Salah-'inc plan
represents a systcnl whereby wage
earners, farmers r.nd other persons
of small or mode“atc income con-
tribute weekly or monthly along
with their employers, if any, toward
a central fund from which is pur-
chased medical care and cash bene-
fits for them. In addition. lndigenfs
and their dependents are covered
by the plan with respect to medical
benefits only.
"It is proposed that the scheme
be financed for employees and their
dependents by contributions made
weekly or monthly by employers
and empl|yees." Contribution by

CHAPTER 6
“You might just as well know now
-as any other time," Doug said, "that
I have no intention of ever living
with you-as your husband. We’ll
stick it out together, for appear-
a.nces‘ sake, llntil I get this mess
straightened out. Then, you tako

live happily ever after-'with some-

Charity got up with a cold little
bow, her breii.‘cfsst untouched.

Doug got up and threw his nap-

It was less than a week later that
Dong told Charity he had found a
pontliollse overlooking Central Park.
Charity was sorry ,to leave Temple-
haven because it was so quiet and
spring had lent it the enchantment
of fairyland. But from another angle
the idea of moving into town ap-
pealed-to her. Doug might not spend
every evening with Yanner-and go
out on parties till all hours of the
morning, if it weren‘t quite so easy
to drive over to her house.
Charity had felt at home in
Templehaven. When Rafferty drove
her into New York and stopped in

Rafferty savcd the day. She wait-

followed. Inside she discovered it
was an apartment hotel. The chauf-
| fcur spoke to the uniformed attend-
ant who had opened the door for
them.
"Mrsl Temple would like to go up
to her apartment." The attendant
touched his cap stiflly.

Charity looked about in bewilder-

then, noting that it was in walnut
with blue satlny uphostcry and
blue drapes at the windows. In the
corner was a grand piano. '
Sylvia then led her through the
living room and into a boudolr in
blue and gold. It was stunningly
beautiful. Of! the bedroom was a
large bathroom with sunken tub.
Charity thought to herself that it
was almost long enough to swing a
few strokes in. But the crowning
surprise came when Sylvia walked
across the boudoir where a long
row of windows opened to the floor
and threw one of them open;
“Madame has a beautiful view
from her balcony." '
Charity gasped. For there, like u

was like a garden. Potted trees,

Doug glanced up casually, nod-

Ch:i;'1_y felt like picking up some-

was it he could make her so angry.
She had never known what it was
to be thoroughly angered in her life

Doug put his paper aside.
"I thought. we'd better dine to-

“I thought that might be it,"

“But docs it really matter what one‘s

was some kind of mashed vegetable.

Indeed, the general feeling toward the bachelor is very 'muck like

privileged class, as he isassuxned w be, the bachelor comes nearer to
being the universal goat of society. Because he belongs to nobody ho
belongs to everybody, and everybody assumes the right to sacrincg him
for profit and pleasure. Hs has none of the defense and protection that
the married man has. He has no alibi to offer when demands are mono
upon him, as has the husbmd and tltharwho can hide behind his family.
The most potent excuse in the world for not doing what you don't want

Inasmuch as the bachelor is toned even as you and I, for everythlns
else underths lun, why should this additional levy be made won his free-
dom? That is pitifully small, at best, and s possession ns has to defend
with unceesing alertness and skill in s world that is overiilled with hus-

Nor is it always the bachelors fault that he is a bachelor. Many 5
man never marries because he is true to \. lost love and many mother
stays single because he sacrificed the dreams of his youth, the home and
wife and children he might have had, in order to take care of an old
father and mother and helpless little brothers and sisters.
Bo for these and various other reasons I un unalferably opposed tn
the-bsahelm' tax. Int every mln have the right to marry or not as he
chooses without the lsw'| discriminating against him. Besides, whatever
should we do for godfather; for our babies and men to all out.l»t dinnfvr
