The late.tt earthquake has caused great damage to life and properly, but it is not likely to dete- a poj)ulation, which has for at least many genera- tions, contrived to make a living under! may coiulitions of decided danger, and the! tion Christion missionaries from this and other lands, have a record for carry- ing on in spite of grave difficulties that come from life in this lively land. As for the Japanese controllers, they are quite at home in Formosa, for they come from similarly earthquake, men- aced islands, whose den.sely tenanted territory is almost daily being shaken. It is interesting to note that in the territory devastated the first of the week ait prosperou.s oil fields.

THE ( RISIS AT OITAWA The knowing newspaper coricspond- ciits rejiort that an attempt was mad. to reconcile Prime Minister Bennett and Mr. H. II. Stevens, the former Minister of Trade ami Commerce, prior to the departure of the Conserv- ative leader for Britain. It is intim- ated, however, that the mission to Mr. Bennett, requesting him to consent to Mr. Stevens' re-entry into the govern- ment, v/as not a success. The Prime Minister is reported to have said that as long as he was Prime Minister Mr. Stevens would not be n member of the government. And r.o, they say, the "crisis" continues and new develop- ments may be looked for when Parlia- ment le-assembles at the end of investigators. • * • Last Sunday, the cable head re|)orts. he Piiiicess Kli/.abeth of York, the fourth lady of the F'mpire. celebrated her ninth birthday in Windsor Castle, with the great band of the British '.Grenadiers booming out the finest of i.nusic by royal command. Then she oiesided as hostess of the King and Queen and her parents, the Duke and Duchess, and cut her birthday caki- with as great ease as an old hand The oHe question that remains un- answered by the dainty little Scottish lady is, did she have a stomach ache as a result of eating cake until sVk- â- rained one of the prizes contained therein? Young folk throughout the world, at any rate, will naturally be curious to know. (.lid visitors with Mr. and Mrs. Eby.
