FflFTY-FIVE years ago to- morrow Prince Edward Island was officially united with the Dom- inion oi Canada. Since that date our Lieutenant Governors, who be- fore had been appointed by the Brit- ish Gcvemment, have been chosen by the federal authority at Ottawa. These have been twelve in number. Oi Provincial Governments there have been 14. led in succession by the following Prime Ministers: L. C. Owen. L. H. Davies, W. W. Sul- livan, Neil McLeod, Frederic Pet- crs, A. B. Warburton, Donald Far- quharson, Arthur Peters. F. L. Has- zard. John A. Mathieson, Aubin E. Arsenault, John I-l. Bell, James D. Stewart and A. C. Saunders.

The powers oi Provincial Legisla- tures were greatly reduced when the Provinces entered the Union. and this led to other changes, among which was the abolition of Legislative Councils. Here the Coun- cil was united with the Legislative Assembly. Just now only one Leg- islative Council remains among those that once had them. Quebec

WELCOME, S. A. COMMISSIONER

CHARLOTIETOWN welcomes to- day Commissioner Maxwell, the head of that great religious and philanthropic organization in Can- ada, the Salvation Army. This is the first visit of the Commissioner to the Province since his appoint- ment as Commander-in-Chief of Canada East (from Port Arthur and Newfoundland. l

He came to Canada with a great reputation as an evangelist, organ- iser and social worker, and has done a great deal since his advent to further the interests of the Sal- vation Army here. _

One of the outstanding accom- plishments of the Commissioner is to have stamped out to considerable extent the difficulties which had de- veloped between the Government and the Salvation Army over its immigration policy. This has not been completely adjusted but great

"The majority of prohibit wine for medicinal pur- poses. Yet Prince Edward Island must needs maintain an annual drink bill under the guise of medicine for its well to do. And the acting Premier (Hon. W. M.| Lea) of the Province has declared

the States:

that the Act must be self-support- ing. That is, that liquor must be sold, whether needed for medicine or not, in sufficient quantities to pay salaries and all expenses of the Act. And the Temperance

Alliance makes no sign. If the

Sons of Temperance also hold

their peace, the very stones will

cry out.“

The Sons of Temperance, alas. decided “it is useless to go into thc same" but recommended the report should be published. Wc may now listen for the cry of the stones.

Mom AMERICANS.

ERTAIN people object to the monopoly by the United States of thc term American. It is claim- ed, and very properly, that all the people on the American Continent, from the South to the North are Americans, just as much so as are residents of the United States. Pro- bably native Mexicans and other Latin peoples, Esquimaux_ and In- dians would object to being called Americans. probably also those now calling themselves Americans would object to having the name applied to such outlanders as those mcn- tioned. yct the word American isso commonly used to designate the in- habltants of the United States that it will likely hold against any ob- jections within or without. We Canadians are Americans also. but we are proud of the name Cana- dian, and consider it a prouder dis- tinction than the more general tenn American. We shall be content to call ourselves Canadians, to sing Canadian songs and to take pride in Canadian achievements and Can- adian progress.

TIIE DANGER OF FAT

f‘

When you read on the authority of a well known physician that cer- tain people have little or no resist- ance to infection, they are bad sur- gical risks; their death rate is very high; they ure- uncomfortable; they have little or no endurance; they are a ready prey to diabetes and other calamities, you wonder what sort of people they can be.

Of whom is Dr. H. J. John oi Cleveland speaking?

He is speaking about “fat” people.

Unfortunately for some of these fat folks, they have been reading in the press that some cases of overweight are due to lack of the juice of the thyroid gland in the neck.

They thus get the impression that this being overweight is really not their fault, and so they take some thyroid extract and keep overeating] and underexercising the same as‘ usual, with, no decrease in weight.

Now as a matter of fact ninety‘ nine out of every hundred cases of overweight are due to just the one: thing-overeating. '

The one in the hundred that is due to lack of thyroid can usually] be detected by the fact that he or. she was always fat; a fat baby; a; fat boy or girl, extra fat about the‘ age of puberty 113 to 16 years), and‘ increasing in weight- as the years pass.

That thyroid extract taken under

reduce weight in this doubledly true.

Now the best thing about whole business is that folks are really awake to the fact that cver-1 weight is something that moans} more than being uncomfortable; it moans as mentioned above, that‘ they are taking serious chances with‘ health and lifc itself. |

On the other hand thc taking of thyroid extract is not the only mis- take made by these over viduals.

In a heroic endeavor to reduce weight rapidly they will cut down on their food intake ‘even to the. point of tasting for a number. of days, and the results are often dis- astrous from the standpoint of heart and blood pressure.

Numerous cases of collapse can bc traced to this lengthy fasting.

Practically cvery case of ovoi- weight can be reduced by the sim-I pie method of cutting down on the
