treasurer is Mr. John Anderson (re-elected). The report was adopt- ed as read.

The question of the holding of a Sunlmcl- School in the summer of 1933 was discussed briefly. Rev. R. Hensley Stavert was highly commended for the splendid work he had done for our young people in carrying on the Summer Schools of recent years. Some were of the opinion that. a. series of Sunday School Rallies each year might re- sult in more good to a. greater number of young people than

held otherwise. They both had their place and both met certain needs in the lives of our young people.

As quite a number of the mem- bers of the court. had to leave to catch the outgoing‘ trains and as there was nothing urgent about having the matter settled at pres- cnt it was agreed to let it stand over until the regular quarterly meeting in March.

Rev, Fred Vvililamson, Convener of th- Presbytel-lal Committee on Session Records, reported that. Session Records had been submit- tcd to his committee by the con- gregations of Alberton. Brookfleld, Clyde River. Malpeque, Summer- side, St. James and Wood Islands. and that the committee had found that all of these records had been neatly and correctly kept.

The report. of the, Presbytery Fund was given by Mr. John Anderson treasurer of the Fund. The finances were found 0o be in a healthy condition.

Rev. Allister Murray was unani- mously elected Moderator of Pres- bytery for the ensuing year. A hearty vote of thanks was extend- ed to the retiring Moderator, Rev. Fred Williamson, for his efficient

services rendered during the year, and by‘ Mr. Williamson suitably acknowledged.

The Presbytery then adjourned to meet at the call of the Moder- ator and Clerk of which proper intimation was given and the meeting was closed with the bene. diction by the Moderator, Rev. Al- lister Murray.

Foster, Communist candidate, will poll a larger vote than usually given to a candidate of the cxireiilc lcft. At. the time of writing stiuiw votes generally in- dicate the c'cctlon of Roosevelt. The president will be elected un- dcr what senator George W. Norris hi‘ Ncl ~ calls the "antiquated" electoral college system.

On election day each state will vote for thc some number of elec- lul - i‘. has senators and congress- iilcli u: Washington.

Since a majority of 26B electoral college votes is required to elect a president it will be seen the results froln tile states ilanlod arc of great importance ill estimating the trend as returns come in.

If Rooscvclt carries the. state of which he is Governor and which

lican landslide, gave hlln a major- ity of 700.000, he will be the first Democratic presidential candidate to do so since i912, A factor here is thc socialist-communist vote (viiich amounts to pretty nearly 5,- 000,000. _ Pennsylvania is a traditional Re- publican stronghold. In 192B it voted two to one for Hoover. Illinois voted Democratic in 1912 and has not since then, but in 1930 the Democratic Senator James Hamilton Le". .s was elected over “the Lady" Ruth Hanna McCor- mick. In the spring primaries the Republican vote heavily overtoppcd the Democratic.

Ohio, home of Republican presi- dents, has been dry and conserva- tivc. However, in 1930 the state clccted a Democratic Governor, George White, a dry. and a wet Democratic Senator Robert. L. Bulk- ley. Tho situation here is perhaps more uncertain than in most states.

Texas’ 23 votes, because John Nance Garner is the Democratic Vice-Presidential nominee and be- cause‘ there is no religious and not lnuch wet and dry issue between parties this year, should be cast for Roosevelt.

California, President Hoover's home, judging by registration for voting, shouldshow a Democratic trend. It is normally Republican, although it voted for Grover Cleve- land, for Theodore Roosevelt as a Progressive, and for Woodrow Wil- son. In 1928 the state gave Hoover almost three times as many votes as it gave to Alfred E. Smith, and at tho primaries this spring. thrice as many votes were cast for Hoov- er as for three Democrats seeking nomination.

Michigan has airways voted for a Republican president. In 1912 it votccl for Theodore Roosevelt, Re- publican Progressive. Two years ago it clcctcd a Republican Govcr- lici- and o. Republican Senator, Ennis W. Ccilzclms. who, incident- ' it (Juliadizlil by birth.

the last fcw ls has SIIOWIl a tendency to des- crt the Republicans, long supreme. It votcd for Smith in 1028 and now has two Democratic Senators and a Democratic Governor.

If Roosevelt should be able to carry all these states-a remark- able sweep-he would be 45 short of a majority.

Disaster Follows Efforts To Find

Buried Treasure

(Special to The Glllfﬂllll) CHESTER, N. S., Oct. sL-Dis- aster continues to follow the efforts made to regain the alleged buried treasure of Captain Kidd on Oak Island in Mahone Bey, off Chester, one of the tourist atractions of the South Shore district of Nova. Sootia. The latest attempt, according to the tourist and convention bureau of the Canadian National Railways. has proved no more successful than previous ones, which have been go- ing on for a number of years.

On Saturday last a scow laden with about $3,000 worth of mater- ial to be used in recovering the treasure, sank and two men on the scow barely escaped with their lives, A diver from Halifax has located one of the electric pumps which was loaded on the scow, winches, hose. and a number of pieces of pipe. The balance of the material is expected to be salvaged today.

Former attempts nt recovery of this treasure have been balked by water filling the dlgglngs. the water seeping in through an unlocated channel which it is claimed the parties who originally buried the treasure“ on ‘the Island dug. In previous efforts with borilig ma- chines, pieces of oak plank, mat- ting. fragments of what seemed to

brought up on the drills, but so far as is known no treasure has evcr been recovered.

Notwithstanding these former un- successful attempts the Island has continued to prove n. lodestone to treasure seekers and each few years witnesses a new assault on the re- puted treasure trove.

A NOISY NOISE ANNOYS MT-

CBOBES If you hear an ear splitting

shriek as you are basal!!! a daﬂv in a. few months‘ time, dent rush to the rescue or send. for the police. If: is quite true that murder will be taking place, but the victims will not be men or women-only mi- crobes. The shriek is not given out. by them, It is, so to speak, put into them and it does more than annoy them; it blows them go bits.

Many way! of sterilizing milk have been invented. but the "shriek" method is the most ef- fectlvc.

But why should a noise kill mi- crobes? Put a hand just between a friend's shoulder blades when he is talking and you will find that you nan feel his back vibrating strongly. fllhoae vibrations come from the sound waves made by his ‘vocal chords. All bounds are caused by vibrations; the quicker the vibraf-lonsthe higher the note.

It occurred to a‘ scientist that if microbes could be made to vi- brute sufficiently quickly they would be destmyed.

He started experiments and soon found that his idea was correct. All they remalnedwas to discover fhe note which produced the most effective vibratioiic. He then tried applying thctshrieker to milk that was full of microbes. So successful was the experiment that milk can be completely sterilized by letting it. flow over the metal tube that is produclng the shriek.
