Every constituency in the country. says an Ontario xchanse. contains hundreds of hard-headed Liberals who thank Heaven daily that R. B. Bennett instead of W. L. Macke ' King has been in control of Can- ada's affairs the past four years. ’ These Oppositlonists, however they may vote on partisan groundS. realize that the Dominion never before had a Prime Minister whose

natural ability, special training and high courage fig him to deal with a series of financial, industrial and economic questions such as those ywhich have confronted the country since 1929. Mention need only be made oi the now generally admit- ted success of the Ennpire trade agreements which Premier Bennett iwas responsible for negotiating, and his still more recent success in sup- rplementing our trade treaty with France by a new agreement of great value and importance to Canadian exporters.

Moreover, everyone who studies the statements put forth periodically by the impartial Dominion Bureau of Statistics, who reads the occa- sional reports issued by the League of Nations, and who has had 'an opportunity of hearing the com- ments upon Canadab position made by prominent Americans and Euro- peans, is aware that Canadians have suffered less from the world depression than any other people; and that Canada has during the past year and a half recovered more rapidly than any other nation. The latest», admission that Canada leads the United States irl the extent and speed oi its upward climb out of hard times is contained in a. leading article which appeared last week in the New York '1‘imes. The first para- graph of the Times editorial reads as follows: '

"Since the middle of June the course of American business activ- ity has been downward. Tile weekly business index compiled by the New York Times from the figures of freight car loadinzs, steel mill activity, electric power, automobile, lumber and cotton cloth production fell last week to ~ a. point where it cancelled all the gains achieved between last No- vember and April oi this year. Business by this index is now back approximately to the level oi January. i933, a few weeks before the bank closings. and to the point reached at the end of April of that year when President Roosevelt had been in oillce two months. This record contrasts

, sharply with that oi Canada, in

which business indexes point to activity well over 50 per cent. greater than that in January oi 21933.”

’ Such admissions as this from competent outside authorities should cause every patriotic Canadian to thrill with pride over Canada's acknowledged world leadership in the lewvery from -the depression and over the part played by the Befinett administration in giving the nation this lead.

I? P. n. 1. HOSPITAL

' It is realized by those who have intimate knowledge oi the needs of the community that public hospital accommodation is absolutely neces- sary for a certain proportion oi our citizens in town and country, when ill-health befalls them; accommoda- tion which unfortunately they are unable themselves to provide. Both the hospitals in the City devote a. comparatively large percentage of their bed accommodation to such cases. These have to be paid for and as there is no surplus funds for the purpose, it is necessary for the trus- tees to raise the money directly from the well wishcrs of the hospital and those generally having the public interest at heart.

Th; Prince Edward Island Hospi- tal trustees formerly raised annually a considerable sum to help towards defraylng the cXPenses in these de- serving cases. But since the inaug- uration of the building fund some years ago the maintenance fund col- lection was discontinued. The tnls- tees now are of opniion that the time has arrived when these collec- tions should be resumed, not only go; m; purpose of providing for the needy cases in question but also in misting them in reducins the aeavy debt that remains on building and equipment. Collectors are on their roundlthisweek muitismbehoc- pd they will meet with l- 89mm"! "gpunso from citizens in both mm and country.

An effective means of stimulating interest in timely “Pics has been adopted by the librarians, 1n plac- ing a number oi such works prom- inently 0n the receiving desk. At present, for example. books 0n cooking, household decoration, needle-work, home-craft rugs, etc» are being displayed in this manner. During the Cartier celebration works of historical interest. deslifls with the discoveries at the great French navigator, were similarly featured.

No doubt, after the holiday season. still greater interest will be taken by citizens in the library, and there is every reason to anticipate that the coming winter will see the largest book circulation h the history oi the institution.

EDITORIAL NOTES

The new loan will be the last gilt-edged security investors will be able "to get in on" for a. long time.

There will be from a hundred to a hundred and fifty additional pec- ple 1n the city for the synod meet- ings now taking place.

It was something new to have a Canadian National appeal broad- castlfrom London, the centre of the Empire. Premier Bennett is never at rest when the interests oi the Dominion are involved.

The Maritimes benefit material- ly under the new Bennett treaty with France, for in addition to get- ting the minimum tarifl on most products, we in these provinces obtain substantial quotas for sal- mon, lobster, apples, cheese, woods. etc.

, As was evidenced by the Angli- can Synod and the United church Conference last month there is a deep and ever-growing revival ill Church life and work irl Canada. “Canada. for Christ and not Com- munism," declared Bishop Manning.

If, as an Ottawa dispatch intim- ates, the Western farmers are pro- posing a scheme for the marketing oi butter, it is time this Province was taking a. hand as well. Our creamery butter holds its own in the world market, and ought to be protected by a. Marketing Board.

The Church in heathen lands has long been recognized as the ‘Moral Police." In North Sydney the term is similarly applicable for it was largely due to the impas- sioned moral appeals of the clergy, assisted muscuiarly by the RCMP. that a riot of severely aggravated unemployed was quelled. Blessed are the peace makers whether in buskin or clicker.

The proper designations of dig- nitaries in the Presbyterian Church are as followsz—-Moderators oi the General Assembly, who are in of- fice are styled “Right Reverend," as The Right Reverend J. B. shortt, M.A., D.D., (Moderator 0f the Gen- eral Assembly.) Ex-Moderators oi the General Assembly who have in the past held that office are styled "Very Reverend," as The Very Rev- erend nan: Baird, MA“, DD., (Eb!- Moderator of the General Assembly, and Clerk of the Synod of the Martime Provinces.)

.Notwithstanding differences of opinion regarding the success of the NRA. everyone will sympath- ize with, and most people support President Roosevelt's appeal for an industrial truce. It is very prob- lematical whether any fndusky, either srlployees or employers ever ultimately benefited by a strike or lock-out. Drastic measures have ef- fects which must be properly ad- justed later, and which adjustment could be attained by the policy of "come let us reason together" sug- gested by President Roosevelt.

The Jacques Cartier entonte has borne undoubted fruit in the new French Treaty. 1- Bennett, as he lns a right to be, is well satis- fied with the excellent conoenions obtained and the‘ cordinlity he met with in Paris. As the Pmnlsr so

Notes ‘By The Way

A new set of British postage stamps has been issued. They are produced by the pllototravure me- thod and the King's head is dis- played cn a solid instead of a lined .,. “ The effect is to produce a deeper and richer tone and color. The British Post Office sells 20 mil- lion stamps s day.

Mk. J. B. Priestley, the novelist, says. nobody. is busy. inventing quietness, yet the time may come when that quality is acknowledged to be the most important and most expensive luxury on the market. He says that "whatever is being put up or pulled down introduces a new orgy of noise, with the pneumatic electric drill, that devilish contriv- ance, leading the chorus." m. Priestly asks if this continuous as- sault upon the cars is ecessa ,y. It is not, he says. Those who contrive the wonderful ingenuity of the time could also contrive means of sil- encing them; the trouble is, how- ever, that there is no money in it.

Some yea-rs ago a youth move- ment started ln Germany. It seem- ed very harmless and even belle-- flcial. One of its visible activities was an encouragement of hiking and out-cf-door life, and the free association of youth with youth in hostels. However, it developed strong pacifist tendencies and these were quickly and definitely traced to Communist propaganda. ‘ifhis pacifism bemme suspect because the openly expressed doctrines oi Communism are founded on vio- lence and on class, if not interna- tional. war. Then when the Nazis gained power. they found no diffi- culty whatever in switching the youth movement to a very definitely militaristic objective. Nazi Germany is shot through and through with these youth organizations, now avcwedly devoted to glorifying war and instilling a warlike spirit in young breasts.

It is only a poor sort of happi- ness that could ever come by caring very much about our own narrow pleasures. We can only have the highest happiness by having wide thoughts, and much feeling for the rest of the world, as well as our- selves; and this sort of happiness often ‘brings so much pain with it that we can only tell it from pain by its being what we would choose before everything else, because our souls see it is good-George Eliot.

ll. has been disclosed at the Morro Castle fire investigation that Acting Commander warms had his license suspended for ten days in 1926 for not holding fire drill on another vessel, his explanation be- ing that the weather was too rough at the time. However this may be, it should be remembered that Cep- tain warms only succeeded to the command of the Morro Castle on the death of its commander a few hours before the fatal file broke out. It was an unfortunate success- ion for him.

0f all intellectual ‘rlsndshfpl, none are so beautiful as those which subsist between old and ripe men and their younger brethren in science or literature or art.

In spits of their armies and in spite of their tariff walls, and in spite of fcur and a half years of violence which left many enam- oured of violence as a political short cut, the peoples of Europe are yet forced info a growing realization of their interdependence. They are aware by this time that it does not pay to burn down your neighbour's housauwhen it means setting fire to 3 own.

For the many republics of Cen- tral and South America the Monroe Doctrine, that crystalization of Un- ited States foreign policy respecting the Western Hemisphere, is re- garded as the political symbol of

T!!! NIID IOI AHEAD PROTEIN FOR THOSE WHO WORK

Home months ago I wrote about the controversy 1n Great Britain on diet between the British Medical As- sociation's Committee and the Min- istry of Health's Committee.

You may remember that the Oom- mittco of the British Medical As- sociation recommended considerably more animal protein-meat, eggs, and milk-than did the Committee of the Health Ministry, and also a larger amount of food daily.

Naturally. thinking people. physio- ians and laymen, wondered why there should be such a difference of opinion among such capable and dis- tinguished food

The explanation of ths difference of opinion is now so simple that it is strange that it wasn't put forward at the time the controversy was at its height. It appears that the Oom- mittee of the British Medical Assoc- iation that recommended a high pro- portion of animal protein in the diet had done their investigating among single active families where the members of these families were working regularly, whereas the Com- mittee of the Ministry of Health in- vestigated conditions in communi- ties where the majority were leading inactive lives.

As you know an individual who is doing active work not only needs more food than om who is inactive but he needs particularly more first class animal protein.

Thus this very controversy has proven to be very helpful not only to physicians who have to do with diets in a community but what is equally important, to the general public as well, as is calls attention to the greater need for milk, meat, and eggs for active adults and grow- ing children.

Protein which is, a body builder and a bow repairer comes not only in meat, eggs, fish and milk, but is found also in various vegetables. Animal protelds are gelatin, cheese-American, Swiss, Roqueiort. Cottage (softL-flesh foods-beef, veal, lamb, mutton. pork, liver, kid- neys, tongue, — poultry — chicken, turkey, goose-fish and shell fish, eggs, milk.

The vegetable proteids are nuts— butternuts, peanuts, almonds, wal- nuts, Brazil nuts, pecans-legumes- peas, beans, cocoa, cereals-oatmeal, wheat, crackers, bread.

the entire object of true education is to make people not merely do right things, but enjoy the right things. What we like determines what we are. and is the sign of what we are; and to teach taste is inevitably to form character.—-Rus-

Kneller Hall

(Montreal Gagette)

The Royal Military School of Music, familiarly known as Kneller Hall, is the oldest institution in the British Empire for teaching music with the sole exception oi the Royal Academy in London.

Kneller Hall, situated within easy distance of London, exists primar- ily as a training school for hand- masters of the British Army. Every year two promising musicians are chosen from each band and to the institution for a three-year course. Hers they learn theory, how to con- duct a band and how to score and arrange. They are also initiated 1n- to the mysteries of the various in- struments of the military nsemble and are instructed in choral work, for it is a part of the duty of barld- rnasters to take charge of the music in the various military chap- els of the peace-time establishment. The course is no slnecure. The student has to study the science of harmony and the still more diffi- cult one of counterpoint. He must pass an examination to these aub- jects and must be able to score for band any given piece of music. In- stlumentati , which is to the band what orchestration is to the orchestra, is another subject of which he must show himself a mas- ter. In short, a man who has under- gone successfully and who has taken full advantage of a course at Kneiler Hall is a very different in- difldusl from the old-style band- master. He is a full-fledged. well educated musician. All ‘ ’ tors in the regular British army must be graduate of Kneller Hall, and the list contains many a famous

In addition to his scoring and directorial studies, the graduate of Kneller House must be a proficient performer on one or more instru- ments. An effort is being made now to have senior students per- formonallorstlesstmostofthc instruments used in the military

New Brunswick Creameries

(Exchws!)

An interesting report of a survey of the business operations of eleven New Bruluwcik cresrnerles during 1992 has just been issued by the economics branch of the federal department of agriculture. It dis- closes a wide variation in the oper- ating cosh per pound of butter pm- duced in the various factories.

The total provincial output of creamery butter in the year under review was 2,759,519 pounds. or nearly double the quantity produced in 1920. Dairy bilttnr output in the same year was 7,450,000 pounds, making the total of both varieties for the year 10,215,619 pounds. Do- mestic consumption, however, was still in excess of supply, indicating the pcgibilit, of still further ex- pansion before an exportable surplus is attained.

From the operator’: point of view the chief difficulty is obtaining suf- ficient quantities of cream for econ- omical operation. Many of the twenty-one creameries operated in the province have small outputs. arising from the fact that many of the agricultural areas are scattered, small and sparsely settled.

The eleven creameries studied produced 1.997.516 pounds in 1832. Output per creamery ranged from 13,448 pounds to 906.600 pounds, and the number of patrons deliv- ering cream from fifty to 1.260. The cost per Pound for manufacture, ex- cluding transpoltaticn. ran from 2.96 cents in one crearnery to 11. cents in mother, and while the lowest cost was attained by the plhnt producing the largest quan- tity. the some relative situation did not apply throughout. Here is how they varied: Plant Output
