OVINGTON'S BANK

THEY reached the turning the others had tak en and ran down it. The distance was short but it was long enough to enable Clement to collect his wits, and, while he prepared himself for the encounter that impended, to wonder how Arthur would bear himself at the moment of discovery.

Opportunity Knocks

AS FAR away from the crowded Tottenham Court Road and the pale arc lamps and the noise of traffic as though walking through country lanes and green fields Henry Chuffrick smiled fondly into the blue eyes of the most wonderful girl in the world. By W. TOWNEND32 min

CO-OPERATION IN EDUCATION

THERE are many things to be said for the small college or university, a great many things, and most of them good. Out of the small colleges have come many, if not most, of our college-bred, great men.

The Jumped Snowshoes

BOB SCANLON traveled light. His outfit consisted of a canoe, a rifle, a few chunks of cold, broiled moose meat in the pockets of his coat, two blankets and a plug of tobacco.

WOMEN and THEIR WORK

I’M WARM, I’M FED, I’M LOVED, BUT I’M OLD AND OUT OF A JOB

I AM A GREAT READER, therefore I often read the stories of other lives. There are parts of these stories that do not ring true. As I write this in my cabin, I wonder shall I be able to escape this, to me, general fault? I promise myself my tale shall be true, even if truth is dull. By NANCY J. PORTER10 min

Curbing Illicit Vendors of Drugs

THE UNITED STATES leads the world in the narcotic drug traffic. This is quite true to-day hut until 1919, before the Canadian Government recognized the necessity of taking immediate and drastic to remedy the condition, Canada held that direful distinction if we estimate the population of this Dominion as one-thirteenth that of the United States.
