A GREAT CONVENTION

Yesterday’: enthusiasflo conven- tion in the Strand Theatre was a striking demonstration of the un- shakeu strength oi Conservative sentiment in Queens County. The Bennett Government has come through the acid test of world econ- omic depression with flying colours- it has placed Canada in the van of world progress towards recovery- and this fact was plainly realized and appreciated by all the delegates, representing every polling district in the county.

The business of the convention was speedily despatched. There was no question as to who the standard bearers in the next federal contest should be. Messrs. W. Cheater S.

McLure and J. H. Myers, the sittingi

federal representatives, were the un-

Mr. Clmrclrill baa been himself into a great lather over Germany's armament preparations and what he calls the British Gov- ernment's failure to keep pace. The British attitude is astounding, he says, “when we consider the char- acter of the present German Gov- ernment, the rapidly darkening European scene, and the obliga- tions which ministers repeatedly Europe." Mk. Churchill's declaration would be alarming if it came from almost anyone else. Perhaps the fact that Mr. C. is not a member of the Cabinet he attacks so vigorously has some bearing on the harshness of his criticism-Bordea- Cities

would have been made by the their‘ Opposition. In admitting that he'

intended to fund his overdraft “im- mediately" after the election, the Liberal leader had made a. fatal ad- mission that he was aware of his Iesponsihility while in office, but had shirked it becallse he feared the political consequences if the stagger- ing amount of his borrowing became known before polling day. ‘

The Premier also drew a striking comparison between the f‘ cial record of the two administrations when he showed that in the last eight. months alone oi their regime, the Lea Government increased Pro- vincial liabilities by $540,000, which was practically the amount of in- crease ths Conservatives had incur- red in two whole years, and ‘after rebuilding Prince of Wales College and Falconwood Hospital.

The federal political situation was ably reviewed by Messrs. Mcliure and Myers, both oi whom were in excellent form.

While congratulating the conven- tion on the choice of its candidates. compliments are also due to the Queens County Conservative Assoc- iation for the business ‘iks manner in which its annual Droceedinko were despatched. His Worship MW" Kennedy, the new President, is too well and favorably known to require any introductory comment here. That he will make an able chief c!- ccutive goes without saying.

A letter over the signature of A.

From this the writer deduced that the scheme is an attempt to mix potato marketing with Conservative polities.

With Mr. Mallinsonk opinions we are not concerned, but we take strong exception to our contempor- ary publishing his allegation without correction, knowing it to be false. The report in question was a Can- adian Press despatch and was pub- lished in every morning newspaper ‘in Eastern Canada.

SINUS BUFFEBEBS

What most of us have always call- ed “head colds" are in a. great many cases an inflammation of the lining of the little cavities or taverns cali- ed ‘ which are connected with

the nose. These little cavities help to form the "sounding box" for the ivoice. You can get an idea oi how important the nose is to the proper ‘sounding of the voice by simply holding the nose and the "voice" come out of the mouth. l‘ This inflammation of these sinus- es is naturally called sinusitis, and ‘the prevention oi sinusitis or head colds is certainly of importance to the health and happiness of those who suffer with it.

That acid foods and too much table salt are factors in prolonging attacks has been shown by Dr. A. U. ,Ullmann, Portland, Oregon.

From Great Britain Dr. M. J. Mandelbaum in the “lsryngosccpe” lays down ten common‘ ‘s for sinus sufferers. He states that sinus infections are more than Just a little inflammation in the sinus, as they imay be due to exposure, to heat and ‘cold, extreme dryness or moisture of the atmosphere, being sensitive to certain organisms.

1N PRAISE OF OLD LADIES

I love old ladies: soft white hair‘, And tender, wrinkled hands that care

For tired men; caressing words

To cogciiriziit helpless things-entail And children; sweet, incisive speech, And gentle silences that teach Serenity and kindliness,

And faith in ancient promises,

I love their unregretful praise

Of other simpler days and ways,

And scenes that old songs bring to mind.

I marvel at their power to find New trrjn in homely, haickneyed

I love ...-..~ deft and dainty ways In kitchens, and the look they wear In gardens, as if God were there.

But most of all I love old eyes Not too intent on Paradise, Eyes that have found the long years

good.

Eyes that, have asked and under- stood.

What more could one wish, growing old,

‘Than eyes like these that somehow hold

Martha's care for each small thing, And Mary's serene listening?

—Elizabeth Henley Danforth, in November “Bpirit"
