will; of the Flushing municipal

com lo decide. The Justice has . “w; notice, however, the cricket was recognized i.n literature.

Famham Fox, 'a tuba player, moygd out of an apartment three umnihs before his lease was up, re- [using to pay the rent for these months because, he said, he was given from his home by insecw.

'l‘he Benliar Holding Company, “m; to collect three months’ rent, wpmitted in evidence tho XOIIUIIIII letter sent to Fox:

"You mentioned In your letter we existence of a plague of in- sects,’ which had become unbear-

l ible. The insects you complained of ire crickets and no doubt are found ' 1,, most of the homes and apart- mills of Bayside. They are harm- ‘ (55, nnd many P°°bie enjoy their ill-ping; in fact. there was a poem ,' iedlcnied to ‘The Cricket Oln the Hearth.’ and in China they put them in cages to hear them sing. the little creatures enter the house through the doors as people enter, y) ii they are unwelcome they are relllovcd by the tenant, who also removes the dust tracked in on ones feet. However, as you know, m: have an exterminator who at- lends to our apartments, and as a _ result he folind three dead crickets, l0 we thought thit ended the mat- ler.

"If it is your desire to give up the apartment on some other ac-

--~oount. you should not blame it on ‘iIIIB crickets or call them a plague Sci insects." u i? Justice Pette interrupted the Extending of the letter once to say gthat "The Cricket on the Hearth" Ewes not a. poem but a story by zjflharles Dickens.

i: Dirigibles May i Be Mo o re d By Electric-Magnets

(Canadian Press) MONTREAL, April l7-A scheme whereby diriglbles might be moored by large electric-magnets to 100- loot-square steel plates has been patented by Frederick G. Raeth, president of the Canadian School ofElectricity here. ' Explaining his invention Mr. Racth st'ates:"'One great advantage of my idea is the fact that the air- ihips may land on anyone of the commercial airports, which may easily be equipped with large steel plates for mooring the airships. The magnets would be lowered 'ircm the airship on the end of giggles to make contact with the ring plates." .. G. W. Lewis, Director of Aero- N." nautical Research in Washington, with whom-Mr. Raeth has been in touch, has the idea under consid- eration. I Raeth wrote of his device to Ad- miral William A. Moffett, chief of the United States Nayy Bureau of Aeronautics. only a. day or so before lhe latter met his death in the dis- aster which befell the U. S. dlrig- lble Akron,

ADDRESSED OTTAWA GYROS -fI‘he following news item is from the Ottawa Citizen of April 13: “Canada does not realize and has not taken full advantage cf the fact that she is the fur chest of the "world, W. Chester McLure, MI’, for Queen's, P.E.I., told the Gyro Club last night. He pointed out that the fur trade was the sixth greatest industry of the world. In tracing the history of the fur trade, he asserted that if it had not been for the stimulus of Canada's fur resources it was quite possible that the Dominion would not now be part of the British Empire. At the present time, more than any other business in Canada it was the closest linked to London and con- tinental Europe. Fur conservation, in which Prince Edward Island had done the pioneering, was becoming of increasing importance to the no_ minion. ‘The speaker was introduced by G. Harold Bur-land and thanked by J. Warren York."

Write ‘Ploy On Important Men

(By Thos. T. Champion, Canadian Press Staff Writer)

LONDON, April 1'l—-Wltli the younger writers there seems a growing desire to find a thcmc for the stage among the lives of great men, Miss Winnified Gunn, of York, has written "Scott of Abbots- ford," which, after a few perform- ances by amateurs in Edinburg and Glasgow, is now presented at the Little Theatre in London.

Scott's career contained many elements of romance, but it takes more than a mere presentation of romantic incidents to furnish a really effective stage piece. Of Miss Gum's sincerity and of her rever- ence for the memory of Sir Walter there is no question. Her dialogue, though, is often stllted. and Wil- liam Heughan, who plays the name part. speaks in the account of Kirkcudbrightshlre rather than in tho cultured inflexlon of the Edin- burgh of a century ago.

As a singer he is most gifted, but‘ even so it is not altogether an agreeable surprise to find the Laird of Abbotsford giving his audience so many selections from the Scot- tish Song Book. Something more theatrically impressive, too. might have been expected in the picture of Scott's desperate struggle with his fortunes, following the failure of the printing house with which he was associated.

n wonderful popularity providing as they do an economical means of visiting relatives and friends. They are fast becoming an established railway practice and many who otherwise could not find it conven- lent to travel, particularly from a financial standpoint, discover that ' the low fares are well within reach of the most modest pocketbook and as a result there is an increasing interchange of visits between the provinces of Quebec and Ontario and the Maritimes, as well as be- tween the principal cities.

A coach excursion is being oper- ated by the Canadian National from stations in the fMaritime Provinces to Moncton, New Bruns- wick on Friday, April 21st, a special feature of which will be the offl- cial reception to the Moncton Hawks, senior amateur hockey champions 0f Canada and winners of the Allan Cup on their arrival in Moncton on the Ocean Limited the same aftemodn from Vancouv- er where the final games were play- ed to decido the championship.

KITCHENER, Ont., April 1'l—A drlzzling rain was falling as mer- .chants locked their shops for the day.

Suddenly a woman's scream rent the air. The shriek was pitched in the high key of horror. and it spiked the creeplness of the twi- light. For several seconds it held its tremoring tone. then died away only to rasp forth again, louder and more bone-chilling than be- fore.

An officer felt nervously for his gun and started toward a grated cellar window from which the shrleks issued. A group of people gathered about the window.

A woman became hysterical. "It's murder." she cried. "Scmeone's choking her in death."

The officer opened the front door of the store and peered in. No, the manager had not left. A light burn-

In an atmosphere of awed devo- tion. Sklled with the fragrance of incense and the basso profundo of organ, the Cardinal officiated ‘at the impressive ritual that is a Pon- tificlal High Mass.
