ST. I'.-\'I‘RI(‘K’S I).~\ Y.

Out 0f the mists of the Fifth and intervening centuries come many legends and many speculations concerning the birthplace, the ancestry and the min- istry of Ireland's patron saint. One fact however comes down to us even out of the mists, the imperish- ableness of a saintly life. Whether St. Patrick was an Irishman, a Scotchman, a Frenchman or a Welsh- man,—and he is claimed by all four—it is admittted by all that he wasa Christian Saint, a benefactor through the ages, the f0lllld€l"0f Christianity in Ire- land and all apostle to the Christian world through- out the centuries since.

Today throughout the world St. Patrick and his work, his IIllSSiOIIHFy’ zeal and his godlyhlife will be reverently remembered and especially by Irishmen, because it ivas 1n Ireland that his greatest work was done and he ls by common consent regarded as Ire. land's Patron Saint. - ,

The day will be xiariously’ celebrated throughout the world and it is fitting that the aim of every cele- bration should be charity and “Yell-doing. In this province more than ordinary preparation is being made. Well organized clubs ill Charlottetown, Em- erald, Kensington, Vernon and Souris have arranged for entertainments. dramatic, literary and musical, to beheld this evening. These have all been announced through the press and we bespeak for each locality a generous patronage. St. Patrick's Day, like Christ- mas, comes only once a year and, like Christmas, al- so, its celebrations are always unique and enjoyable.

Dr. Edward Oswald, Superintendent of the Glas- gow Royal Asylum, is authority for the statement that insanity is increasing among women because they are taking a much greater share in the world’s work. i

_ _With all due difference to the learned doctor's opinion there is a widespread impressionthat insan- ity among men is increasing because of the steady inroads made by women into the fields of labor here- tofore occupied exclusively by men. It is a fact that women are, crowding men out of many lines of busi- ness; a fact also thatbecause of the steadily increas- ing number of women who are taking a share in the world's work, there is a steadily decreasing number of homes, a steadily decreasing number of children in the homes and a steadily decreasing population in those countries in which women are taking an in- creasing share in the world's work.

It is therefore not an encouraging outlook upon

civilization to find that insanity is on the increase ‘l“°“g"°“‘ C’"'“"", , l m l H“ f“ goodheaf, ,,,,.,,c,,, F", .m,ance he ,0“, amon women b ' ' - ' ' ' l e“ °‘ “‘l"°s"“““°“ "’ "°"“ “" "d .8 '95P,” y o. . - - - 3 . ~ i 'iii ll g ecause of thew lncleaslng actlvlty Lion‘ 1i has heen-lnainly discussed ed iiorllshlloiliail, who tquippeti ﬁzllglllli-Oxﬁnxllllolaeiéeegzllisgotwiz:

in world’s work and among men because the women are monopolizing their old time preserves.

_ We note that a bill was introduced last week in the Nova Scotia Legislature fixing a minimum wage for women and also a bill to legalize the ap- laolntment of women as notaries public. What the minimum wage is to be Ol"\\’l"i8tl161‘ they shall be per- ml-tted to make the same charges as men for notarial work has not been announced. This will be decided when the bill comes up for second reading.

There is no reason why a woman should not engage in work formerly done by men only, if she wants to; nor ‘IS there any reason why a woman should not receive the same remuneration for work as a man does, provided she does it as satisfactorily and as efficiently as the man; but there are many reasons why women's education and training should direct them to home and home-niaking rather than to the professions or other callings that either dis- qualify them as home-makers or make home-making distasteful to them.

If Dr. Oswald's theory is correct and if the other theory we have ventured to advance is correct, it would appear that the woman's sphere is in the home.

THE l’.\'l‘Ifl()'l‘ (‘LIMBS INNVN .

_ The Patriot at last grudgingly admits that it misrepresented the facts with reference to Mr. Land- rigan’s “retirement” and that the Guardian's state- ment that that gentleman was dismissed, was cor- rect. In making this admission the Patriot says peev- ishly, “how sensitive is the Guardian about the re- tirement of Mr. Landriganl” No, the Guardian is not sensitive about Mr. Landrigaﬁs “retirement.” It was not Mr. Landriganﬁs retirement that was at stake but the Patriot's veracity. In common with ev- ery lover of truth and fairness the Guardian is con- cerned that a reputable newspaper should deliber- ately and wilfully and knowingly falsify in its col- umns an act of the government of which it is the ac- credited organ. The Patriot's admission is ‘pitiable. What follows the admission in its yesterdays issue

counts for nothing as, after its conduct in the Land- "

rigan case and its misrepresentations in the Falcon- wood case, nothing it will say or explain will hence- forth be taken seriously. It foreshadows either a reorganization or the discontinuance of the School Supply because “Mr. Hughes has taken stock and probed the business to the bottom!”

. hat is in store no one knows and the ‘uly interest the public will take in any explanation {Patriot may make will be,;to see how that

CURRENT (OMMENT

The Supreme Council has issued a memorandum on the world's ec- onomic conditions inuch of which should be accepted as a lliandale to be acted upon by all. even to the individual units of the nations. Brieﬂy governments and individuals lire called upon to contribute QllBII‘ quota to peaceful industry, sup- press extravagance, rediice expell- diture, incl-ease ~protiuction in manufactures as well us in frilits of sea. and soil. deflation of currency. improvement of means of transpor- tation and removal of those dis- turbing factors, the pl-oﬂleers.
