CEYLON EDITORIAL NOTES CENTRELINE I We have just been informed by the Cunard-Whitc Star ShippinK Com- pany that the new Riant liner, Queen Mary, will leave Southampton on May 27th next for her maiden trip across the Atlantic. The vessel, vhich ha.s been con.structed on the Clyde at GlasKOw, is scheduled to ar- rive in New York on June 1st and will be on show for five days, when she ^•ill leave to complete her first round trip. British holies are high that the Queen Mary will capture the blue ribbon of the Atlantic, held for a long: period by ships owned on the continent. As for us, when wo cross the ocean we hope to be in no particular hurry to end the journey, unless the waves rolled high. WTiat's nil the hurry to "get there," on land or sea, which seems to possess the race? Folk should take time to live by the way. • • • Premier Baldwin of Great Britain In the hour of his triumph, gives a noteworthy example of his trustful- ness in hi.s associates who stood by bim, although they fell in the recent electoral fight. He had retained in bis Cabinet the Macdonalds, father and son, and will arrange to find them seats in the House of Commons. By and bye it is expected that the ex-I'remier will be given furthet promotion â€" perhaps to a seat in the House of Lords. He and his old associates in the Labor party are not likely to again "make up," and as foi the junior Macdonald. he is doubtless thankful that, as "the son of his father' â-  he hps received unusually rapid promotionâ€" to the chagrin prob ably of more deserving members of the dominant party. He will have a good chance to i.rove his mettle whiU holdinir his new office of Secretary for the Dominions, until lately held by Mr. "-Timmie" Thomas. • * â-  Mrs. fJeorge Black, new member of the Canadian House of Commons announces that she is Independent, as she want<'d to be free to support any measure in the interests of her con- stituency without party affiliation.

In spite of the rain last Wednesday evening quite a number met at the school to sing. About Barn Fires Every fall and winter there are barn fires, lots of them, of which a lighted lantern is the cause. Just why a man would hang a kerosene lantern in a mow or in a stable when he is moving hay or other fodder which clouds of dust arise is beyond understanding. In a barn not many miles from AUis- ton a few weeks ago a lantern was hung below the opening in to the barn above the stable and the owner put down a quantity of hay from which dhst arose putting the light of the lantern in a haze. Suddenly there was a report and a flash of flame through the dust. The hay had become ignited and there was barely time to liberate the stock before the flames reached them. The insurance companies know this dust and lantern hazard and some of them are weary about taking risks on farm properties while others do so at high rates. It is a case of the care- lessness of a few making insurance expensive for the many. There is no sure remedy for the hazard as there can be no guarantee that u farmer us- ing an oil lantern will not inadvertent- ly carry it into a cloud of dust. Stables and barns in which Hydro light is installed aM immune as the bulbs over the light protiict the prop. erty from fire and should the bulb be broken the light goes out with the first contact of air.

The dust raised when feed is taken from the pile and place<l In front of the stock is seldom thick enough to be dangerous, but should dust from this cause commence to accumulate the man causinc it would do well to cease feeding till the atmosphere in the stable has become clear. , <t TWICE REMOVED Fi-iendâ€" "Who's the pretty girl you .spoke to?"
