GERMANY LOST TOY MARKET
United States and Japan Now Supply
Canada With Playthings She
Does Not Procucce.
The United States is now first in
supplying those toys needed to supple-
ment the output of Canadian factories.
The additional quantity required by
Canada to supply its own domestic
trade amounted in the last year to $1,-
500,000 worth. Before the war Ger-
many was the chief source of supply,
but the United States now leads and
Japan has likewise made a notable ad-
vance in its toy shipments to that
market. In 1913 American exports of
toys to Canada amounted to $273,138
and in the year ended March 31, 1920,
the total was $1,136,372. Japan's trade
grew from $18,738 to $277,946 in the
geme period, while there was only 2
small increase in toys sent from the
United Kingdom.
The toy and doll industry of Caa-
ada, according to Vice Consul Horace
M. Sanford at Ottawa, has made con-
siderable advance compared with pre-
war time, hut imports were needed te
meet thie domestic demand. At the
present time some thirty-five Canadian
toy factories are listed, although the
census returns of 1918 reported only
fifteen. The kinds of toys made there
include animals, autos, balls, billiard
games, boats, building blocks, car
riages crokinole boards, croquet sets,
dishes, dolls’ furniture, games, garden
gets, lawn swings, pool tables, tricycles
and wheelbarrows, which are made of
celluloid, eramel, iron, steel, tin, rub-
ber and wood.
Last year Canada exported $139,052
worth of dolls and toys, the United
States taking $5,635 worth and the
United Kingdom $120,322.
ONE FLAW IN BRIGHT IDEA
Janitor Called On as “Dinner Substi-
tute” Might Object to Personal
Inconvenience Involved.
A young Indianapolis physician had
been invited by a school teacher to
accompany her to a dinner party at
which he was an absolute stranger.
He accepted the invitation, but at the
last minute had to break it. “But you
can take some other man and pass
him off for me,” he offered, generous-
ly. “No one there knows me, so it'll
go all right.”
The teacher hesitated. “But they
know most of the men I know,” she
said. And then a sudden smile came
over her face. “I might take our
school janitor. He's new in the city,
but you could give him some of your
clothes and it would probably pass.”
“But how does he talk?” asked the
doctor, a little bit doubtful of the
gcheme now,
“Qh, his talking is all right,” as-
sured the teacher, and smiled wider
than ever again. “There's only one
thing I'm not sure about, He chews
Sila ahr wok FEES A RAO
tébacco, and 1 wondered it he would
do without for that long.”—Indianapo-
lis News.
American Gobs as Gondoliers.
American gobs are learning how to
become gondoliers, and an American
school has for the first time included
gondoliering as a regular course. In
Venice the Knights of Columbus op-
erate a social service club on the
banks of the Grand canal, and in con-
nection with the club the Knights of
Columbus maintain a well-equipped
school, run on the lines of the
Knights of Columbus free night
schools in America. French, Italian,
Turkish and other languages are
taught in the school to the men of the
. American Mediterranean naval unit,
as well as navigation and other tech-
nical courses.
Now gondoliering has been added,
gs the American sailors relish driving
themselves nnd their Venetian friends
around the gem of the Adriatic in gon-
dolas. Some of the sailors are becom-
ing expert in handling the picturesque
craft, Knights of Columbus Commis-
sioner Edward L. Hearn reports.
