LABDR CONDITIDNS
The Labour Gazette for Ft-llruary, just issued, ulakes
interesting though not uliiforlllly pleasant reading. Tile labour conditiolls dealt with are those for Januarl' Hild- generally, they show no improvcnlcnt over L'0I1lliii0l1S lil
Dccelnbcr, which were by xlo means favourable,
Practically throughout the whole of western Calla-lf.la
there lvas serious ullemploylnellt. lll \\'ilnlipeg. for ex- ample there were 8000 unemployed. In Sallkatcllcwall alld Alberta the provincial Governments made lnontllly grants lo the municipalities to enable theln to cope with the situa-_ tion. In Britt:-all Columbia the IJ\'0Vll\¢'l‘-il g0""""““`m l‘7“"L" direct relici to unemployed persons throughout the prov- inee and also made loans at low rates of interest to lllulllcipalliliiies to assist tllelll through thc t-_llit-rgt~llt~y period.
In thc .\laritinlc l'l'o\'incc2< conditiolis were collsider-
ably better than ill the west. Lulnllerillg opt-rations were active ill New iirllllslvich. coal mining ill Nova Scotia was "sliglitly illlprolw-tl." In Prince Edward Island "considering the nlid winter season conditions compared well up to the standard ofalny previous ycar for the same lil.ne."lndustriaI activitv was “fairly good." “Cost of living, eonsidcrlllg the prevailing conditions, due to tht- war. has not increased fo any extent lvorthy ot' colnnlent." in the report for Prince Edlvard Island, also, there i- this connnellt: "ln some l‘l'z-tpl-cts the year 1914 was for this district ami the province al llotallll- one. 'File crop for llle year was one oi' the largest ami best, and thrillers received good prices. universal :ll~tivit_v was displayed by the Dcpnrtlnent of Ag- riculture. New aml up~to-dale ideas for the better cultiva- tion of the land and for the production of better and larg- er crops wt-rc sei on fool."
lt is not by "l-olnparing onrst-l\'es with ollr.~:el\'cs" lint
by conlparing our province with our sister provinces-lvitll ally country ill the world ill fact, that we call realize the blessings we enjoy and the opportunities we have ill Prince Edward Island. lt is doubtless true that we have nnein~ ploymellt. but it is largely unelllploynlent i'ronl choice. There is work for all wllo want work. lt may not always be congenial, it lnzlff not ll-all to great wcaltll, blit it will at least afforli all honest living. \'l'<- have ullr ollstaeles but they are not insllrnlonntable alld when we shall have learned to nlalu- more and bt-tier use of our land and ot` our opportunities we shall have fewer poor than we have loday. \\'e are eilgnged ill thc greatest work thc Alllligll- ty has given in any llil-il---producillc t`oud-and we Ilave tlle distinction ol' In-ing the only province ill tfillladu that prodllvl-ll mort- food than ii can consunn-. .\nd wi: arr- yct only at thi- oilirr fringe oi' our capacity ill food produc- tion. livt-ry :lrre of lalld ill the province can be made to proilllcc lnorc than the best worked acre ill it has yet pro- duced. \\'ht-1, we have at-colllplislleil that alid are able to feed as lnully millioun as we fl-ed thousands today we shall be making reasonably good use of our opportunities.

l"ICTION AND WAR
Llt-fore tho war broke out. before it was even allticipu~
lcd. except in ilu- general suspicion that rested upon Ger- lnllny. Sir (`onan lloylt- wrote a short story entitled “Dan- gcr." lvllicll \v:l.~' pllblisllt-tl ill London anti New York. It lil-alt with the use of szlillllmriliv-.-a as harbor lllockadl-rs unll, with thi- fllsit-lliaiillg \l'l~ll and woot' that Sir ('onuli is able to weave about his scclli-s :lit-l his l~llllraclcl‘s, the ull- derlvatel' blockade and its opportunities for britvcry anti during nlade a tllrillhlgly interesting story.
Now it is claimed that the story not only made good
readillg but that it furnisllcd the idea that the German Ad- miralty has lulolltctl ln the rt-cent war zone und submarine lllockalle of the lirltlsll const. So nlucll t`or the influence of fiction or. should we say. thi- power of thc prophet.
This utilization of fiction will revive in the lnlnds of
ull renders of Kipling the curious port one of his stories, "'i`hcir l.a\vl'ul ()ccuriiolls," played in the nlonlnrnhla cruise or lin- nussfun fleet under Admiral llojcuvcnlkl; from the llaltil- to its place of destrllctloll in tile mea of Japan. \\‘hell passing the Doggel' Bank. in the North Sea --the site of till- Billet-ller's recent destrllrftion-thc lina- slans llev.-:lille panic stricken ni the appearance ofa fleet ol` English truwlers alld fired into the fishing boats, owing to ll belief that. Japanese torpedo bouts were concealed ulnong tlleln.

ships were :it the tllne. lllvesiigation sllolved that 10 per cent. of the officers abullrll that fleet lvl-rc drawn froln thc cavalry and all lvl.-re :lea-sick.
Later, the facts lunlt- out that l\'iplillg's slor_v---
published ill l9l(l. ami ilnrluded ill "’I`rufiics and Discoveri- es." had in-cn trallslatcd lllto llusslan and had been lectur- ed upon ill the llllssiall officer Naval School. Every ltusslan officer and cadet was fallllllur with the manner in which ll practlcul joker nunlcd Pyecroft had lnanoellvered ll gaso- line launch among the largest ships of the British Navy, during the annual rt-,view off Portsmouth.
According to the tale. this fellow Pyeeroft succeeded
in "torpetlolng" most of the dreadllougllia and cruisers. moaning that under the shelter of n fog, he placed large red marks llpon various parte of tht-ir hulls.
Kipling. on the other hand. ls said to have got his idea
from an incident ln real life. a joke played by an American filmed Boyntoll. on n British warship while in ll United States port. Boynton was a professional swimmer and while touring the country in charge of ll stage manager and press agent, happened along at ll certain pm-1 while n Brltllb warnlllp was lying at anchor tllorc.

LORD Kl'l`CHENER’S li0ME
The recent cable :lnnoullcemellt that York liousc
would be utilized t`or the nloment as a residence for Lord Kltcllener has aroused considerable interest. lt was the former home of the aged Duchess of Caulbridge, and the first home of our King anti Queen, when as Duke and Dui-llcss of Comwall ulld York they occupied the charm- ing old rcd brick edifice, alldwas built, curiously enough, on the site of the old leper hospital by ilolboin for ilenry \‘ill. A large portion of the origlnul building wal-i destroyed by fire early ill the last century.
lt was said tllat the redoubtable Sarah Duchess of
.\lal'lborougll, when she caused Marlborough Ilouse to be erected. had taken into consideration the fact that Sl. Jalllcs Palace was a low tlvostoriedbuildillg, and in the amiable desire to annoy her sovereign saw to it that the
elevation of her own residence should be such as to afford her an opportunity_ot` perpetually overlooking her neigh- bour. _
ft is possible that at ille ,collclusion of the war a suit-
.lble llahitntlon may be purchased for Lord liitcllt-ner by the colllltry. ill the iueanthuc- ollr "‘\\’ar Lord" is to be lodged lll the Palace, which is officially' the State resilience of the Sovereign, since all official documents are, we be- lieve. still given from "our Court of St. James," although it did not assume tllat importance llntil the destruction of Whitehall ill the reign ot` William of Orange. Monk, after- wards Duke of Albemarle, lived at St( .latne's Palace when he llrougll about the Restoration of Charles II., but with that exception it has always been inhabited by Roy- al l’c-rsonagcs. ulltil, on the Accession of the late King, the ,Prince and Princess of Wales moved to Marlborough
House. Since then it has been used to lodge distinguished guests, among whom is numbered the President of the Frellcll Republic.
