Officials of the Canadian National Railways declare that 60 percent of the settlers taking farms along the transcontinental lines are back-to-the land bookkeepers, tradesmen, artists, clerks, and shopkeepers who are seeking relief on farms of their own from the high cost of living in the cities. Between 200 and 300 of these white-collar folks inquire about farm lands each week at the railroad's Winnipeg office alone.

SAVED TWO LIVES
BOY OF 15 YEARS RESCUES TWO GIRLS FROM DROWNING IN TWIN LAKES SUNDAY
RATHDRUM, Idaho.—Rollie Hurrell, a 15-year-old Rathdrum boy Sunday afternoon saved Miss Mina Pilkinton and Miss Cora Brophy from drowning in Lower Twin Lake, rescuing the girls after they had gone down for the last time and bringing them ashore unconscious. The lad performed the daring feat unassisted, but was unable to resuscitate the young women and after bringing them to land he rowed a considerable distance and obtained older persons to restore them to consciousness.

The young women, who are employed on the Patrick Welch farm near Lower Twin Lake, were in swimming. Neither of them could swim and when Miss Pilkinton fell into a deep  Pool, Miss Brophy unhesitatingly went to her assistance. Their cries for help were heard by Hurrell, who appeared on scene just as the girls disappeared beneath the surface of the water. He swam out and dived, bringing up Miss Pilkinton, with whom he swam to shore and he then went back and rescued Miss Brophy.
