The comâ€" pany went on with its business. When the six months were up it was sent ‘a perfunctory enquiry by the Governâ€" ment, ard returned a reply which no ‘‘one seemed to understand. _ Since then nothing has been done. _ It is evident that the company knew . the . change of government meant a change ‘of policy where ‘‘the interests‘" were concerned.

This Inaction There is a story told of a Chica;o‘ cold storage egg. Once upon a time a western bachelor purchased a case of cold storage eggs for winter conâ€" sumption. On one of the eggs he found written a message asking the purchaser zbcommunicaue with the girl who had packed that particular exg and suggesting that such comâ€" munication might lead to matrimony. The western bachelor wrote to the address given and offered his heart, hand and name. The reply came back in due course, "Too late, I was marâ€" ried four years ago and have . two children," she wrote: Perhaps there is an analogy to be drawn with Mr. Borden‘s "emergency." It was freshâ€" packed a ycar ago. It is a _ little }addled now, but is still ‘"an emergâ€" ency." ‘Possibly two years hence it will still be doing duty as a strictlyâ€" fresh, newâ€"laid â€" ‘"emergency." But the country is hardly‘ likely to offer ‘its heart and hand _ to the packer, ;.\lr‘. Borden, then, on the strength of lthe message on the label. Important Tranchise reforms _ have 1 been instituted by the city of Calâ€" gary and the privilege of voting in‘ municipal elections will now be cx-l tended on a much wider basis than formerly.

Hughes, Canada‘s Minister of Militia, with a staff of twentyâ€"four Canadian officers, is attending _ the army â€" manoeuvres in Switzcrland, France and Germany. On his return he will doubtless be able to tell us how far we are behind in military maiters and why _ his department should have several more millions to spend next year. Following their neglect to put their slaughter houses in a sanitary â€" conâ€" dition, after being warned by _ Dr. McNally, District Officer of Health, three Marriston butchers were heavâ€" ily fined. The activity of the proâ€" vincial officer is to be commended and if continued will result in _ the remedying of conditions in the mcat trade throughout the district _ that should never have been tolerated. The Calgary pure milk depot is now supplying milk to the babies of: about one hundred familics and the undertaking has been amply demonâ€" success of the ventute as a municipal strated. Of the babies that have been supplicd since the depot started there is not one that has not shown <imâ€" provement and the demand | for the specially prepared milk is growing rapidly.
