In Canada, with an expenditure of less ‘than $20,000,000, the Bennett Government has provided work for about 300.000 people.

These figures, says the Toronto Mail and Empire, probably furnish a reasonable yardstick of the compara- tive efficiency thus far achieved by the two administrations.

Judging Ludwig Beethoven by his portraits we are impressed by the overpowing force of tlhe'man. There is conflict in his face; the eyes are fierce, yet tender; the "firm, stub- born mouth bclles the cleft chin. In his rugged countenance we can al- most read the "story of his life. When he was born in 1770, at Bonn-a uni- versity town on the Rhine-Mozart was at the summit of his fame. and the older Beethoven, was also a musician, decided to devclope an- other baby prodigy to startle royal courts as Mozart had done. He was a rough man with a" violent temper, and a drunkard, whose distorted judgment made him a tyrannical fath er.

The taking of the census of Can- ad; will commence on Monday. June 1, by enumerators appointed official- ly for that purpose. Judging by me number and variety of questions to be asked the results should give a fairly complete statement of the po- sition of the country and of the citi- lens. That, however, will depend to some extent, upon the friendly co- operation of each citizen. If some imagine that questions are too per- sonal or even perhaps imllemllen‘ they should remember that the sche- dule has been prepared with the greatest care and that lull and truth- lul answers are necessary for the success of this national stocktaking.
