THURSTON, Editor [^soc EditOT WOOING OF THE WARRIORS welcome intelligence last week that the parents of Ontario high school pupils wou'ld save approximately $200,000 this year thiough the action of the Ontario Government in abolish- ing middle and upper school examina- tion fees. Another welcome im- pi-ovement announced by the Minister of Education (who is provinc a live wire) is the earlier announcement of examination i>esults. This will give students time to prepare for their next year's work. The results will lif made known early in August. CEYLON Mussolini, the Italian dictator, said something nice about Gemiany last week, and immwiiately drew from pir. Hitler, he of German autocracy, a declaration favorable to establish- ing better relations w-ith Italy. The fact is that the German leader held j friends on Sunday, out an olive branch to Rome clearly 1 iMrs. T. A.

The interna- tional courtship proceeded thus:- Hitler, in the Reichtag, declared that Germany neither intends nor wishes to interfere in the internal affairs ot Austria (about which Italy has aLso been much concerned) annex Austria or conclude "Anchluss (economic union). To which Mussolini respond- ed in the Chamber of Deputies, that Germany would be invited to the forthcoming Danubian confei-encc and would be kept informed as to the progress of preparations for the gathering. Would not German auto- crat'^ rejoice if they could snap full concession of Italian claims regarding Ethiopian and Austrian supervision for lecognition l)y Italy of German demands to regain domination of her northern borders, at the expense of Poland, and reclamation of the colon- ies taken from her in the Great War. It is made i|uite apparent that Ger- many is not as keen to get back into the League of Nations as she is to retrieve her losses in the war. Even when she was a member of the League, her aim seemed to be, not to aid in maintaining mutual peace and fail- play among the nations, but to regain her status as a bnrrowinK and cor luesting power. Tile latest continental developnutit political developments and widespreail warlike preparations do not afford very strong indications that the na- tions are as anxious to prescn'e peace as .-latesmcn sometimes prnfess, and meantime the preparations for war proceed. It is ovei twenty years since the last big war was started (as we now known on the slimmest pretexts). Is history to bi repeated? If the peoples of the earth were as united to protect their own interests as are the monied makers and vcndois of war material, there woud be no war, and instead, united action to promote international amity and re-eslablish such friendly trade relations as will guarantee peace, jn-osperity and pro- gress, in a world that has been sadly afflicted by mischief-makers. Mr. and Mrs. .Ksrry Huston and children, Oshawa, visited with Mrs. Huston's parents over the week end Mr. Peter Muir returned with them for a visit. Ml. Joseph Snell and .son Kenneth have returned to Weston after visit- ing Mr. and Mrs. (Jeo. Snell. Miss Estelle Bridge spent the week end at Proton.

F. Coliinson. Messrs. J, D. Cam)>bell and W Haley were in Toronto the first ol the week. Mrs. W. Beaton visited the Misses Harrow in Owen Sound over the weeV end. Parliament re-assembled in an at- mosphere of bewilderment and inter- rogation. Returning members were asking each other questions which ran like this; "Is Mr. Bennett going to retire?" or "will he carry on through the election, doing amn-chai' leadership from Ottawa, broadcastmg addresses and having trusted lieu- tenants in the field?" "Have tde LlberaLs a platform, and if so, what is it?" "Is social credit, as preached by .A.bprhart in Alberta, going to ser- ously embarrass the U. F. A. men in the Federal field?" Punctuating every other (juery was heard the refrain, "When will the election be?" The Prime Minister was heartily welcomed back to the House of Com- mons. No one sittii g in the packed galleries could doubt the genuine pleasure the members had in seeing the Prime Minister in his place once more, looking very natural. Mr. Mackenzie King, who has a fine ap- preciation of the niceties of life, wel- comed the Prime Minister in a grace- ful speech, which was concurred in by Mr. Robert Gardiner, speaking for "the Corner." When the Prime Minister rose to reply he was greeted with long con- tinued and thunderous applause. His speech of appreciation and thanks clearly showed that he was touched by the spontaneity of the welcome accorded him. Ho concluded with th. words: "There are many things that men forget, there are some thev a!- Four bills drawn to implement por- tions of the Royal Commission's Re- port on Price Spreads were given first reading in the House of Com- mons this week. These deal with livestock, industrial disputes, weight'? and measures and amendments to the criminal code, providing for new pen alties for infringement of the Act. Under the new Act the definition ol "ex|X)rt" is changed in regard to live stock, so that the same regulations which govern inspection of meat foi \ ICTORIA CORNERS Mrs. Archie McTaggart of Swinton Park visited a few days last week with her parents Mr. and Mrs. Johnny Acheson.

The Bill does not create the livestock board recommended by the Comnus- sion. The weight and measures act is to be tightened up to prevent short- weighting to the public, by sharp upward revision of penalties imposed for violations of the act. Corpora- tions guilty of short-weighting will be subject to a maximum fine of $1,OOC and a minimum of $500 for the first offence and a maximum of $10,000 and a minimum of $5,000 for eac>i sub.sequent offence. As the week has progressed it seem? less likely Mr. Bennett will retain the lead'Cr.ship. Press despatches to this morning carry tWe 8tx>i-y that the effort of the week has tired him. A man of his actipe temperament is un- likely to remain in a position in which he must be continually savinc his physical energies, an almost impos- sible task. His retirement would arouse great contraversy. While a considerable number of the Cijnser- vative members of the Hou.se would undoubtedly support Mr. H. H.

The car, which was in rev«rse gear, swung around in a wide circle to rest with a resounding crash on one side of the hotel. It hap- pened to be the wall of the beverage room, and a clock on the wall was dis- lodged by the crash. The clock, a heavy one, fell directly on the head of a customer who promptly lost interest in his surroundings. His solicitous friends rushed to his aid, and, it is said there was considerable free beer for other patrons before the unfor- tunate man recovered.

VANDELEUR EDITORIAL NOTES What has <ome of all those silver dollars? Most of us were anxious to see some new nu-lal curiency once more, and there was much disappoint- ment when only a few favored bank- ing establishments and public officials got a look-in on the coins minted in celebration of the Royal Jubilee. But many thousands were disappointed.
