Colin Rankin, who died in Montreal recently at the age of ninety-four, was the first native Canadian to enter th service of the Hudson’s Bay company. After a half-century in the company’s employ, this patriarch of the fur trade retired as chief factor in 1898, He was taken into the Hudson’s Bay company's service in 1848 by Sir George Simpson, known as the “em- peror governor.” Sir George was one of the ablest of the long line of gover- nors that began in' 1670 with Prince | grom cugar molasses has heen wmade | Rupert, famous champion of the house of Stuart in Cromvwellian wars. Under him, the company was merged with the North West company, which for years, had been its,deadly rival in the fur trade. Under him, too, the com- pany_reached fts meridian of power and ‘@ominforr-and ruled three-fourths of -the North American continent. Mr. Rankin's service was almost ex- clusively in eastern Canada. He was 1 charge; of posts at Mattawa, La- chine, ;St.’ Maurice, Kickendatch, Ber- simis,” Saguenay, Simcoe and Temis- kaming. He was chief factor over the Lake Superior district and the Ottawa river district. He was known for his vigor of mind and body, and his career, which missed but‘six years of rounding out a century, was an epic of the wilderness adventure. IMMENSE ARMY OF VOTERS Almost One-Half the Population of the Country Has the Privilege of the Ballot. Approximately one-half of the popu- Iation of the United States is of voting age, it findings announced by the census bureau for two states In which age statistics on the 1920 census re- turns have been worked out’ indicate conditions In all others. In Arkansas individuals over 21 years of age con- stitute 49.5 per cent of the state's total population, and in Alabama they amount to 48.7 per cent. The bureau is also finding more chil- drgn in the country than in the cities, as far as the study has been complet- ed. Children under 15 years in urban areas of Alabama constitute 29.6 of the total population there, while in rural territory they comprised 41.7 per cent of the total Arkansas figures bore out the concluslon, giving 40.2 per ceht of children in the.country, and but 28.4 per cent in the cities. More than a third of the country’s total population in 1920, and nearly 70 per cent of the urban dwellers—37,- 770,114 persons, to be exact—lived in the 289 cities of 25,000 inhabitants or more. so0h CRY CAME FROM HIS HEART Thespian Was by No Means Acting When He Gave Such Strong Vent to His Feelings. Otis Skinner was recounting some of his experiences in “Kismet,” not the motlon-picture version but the stage play, in which he made kuch a big success all over the country a few years ago. “I remember when we played Cin- cinnatl,” he said, “that we had trou- ble with our harem pool. We always tested it before the show| and on this night, instead of the slightly heated water pouring through the pipes. it was jets of steam. “We sent out and got all the ice we could procure, but even so, when the harem girls plunged in, they turned red as beets, A little later, I was called on to throw the grand vizier, Mr. Hamilton Revelle, into the pool. “We had forgotten to teli him about the temperature, and when he struck the water he let out a yell that we thought would break up the show. But it didn’t and you can imagine our sur- | prise next day when the critics com- plimented Revelle on the spontaneous oqutery he made when I threw him to lifs death.” .

We mourn ovér the coming of age, put how many of us would really choose “to remain young and so lose the treasures that the years bring; the varied.friendships, the adventures, the garnered wisdom?
