Yet the success of the pacifier is not â€" in a business sense ot any other _ an insurable asset, as the nations have not yet gotten over such manifestaâ€" ’tiona as the Balkan war, which all the powets of Europe could not preâ€" ;mt. However, it is up to _ Canaâ€" dians to provide for the defence of 'tlleir own firesides. The _ simplest form of defence to learn is to han.‘ dle a rifle. _ The extreme â€" pacifiet }nyl, however, that in this way. young men are being taught to murâ€". der. by shooting at something repre sented by a target. The _ speaker pointed out that on the rifflo range all form of danger is avoided, even more than dissipation, as unless . a man has self control and is cool headed he cannot shoot successfally, so, "‘if you want the young men to be solf controlled, to be peaceful, and help the other fellow to keep the peace. fnake them go to the rifie range, until they are crack shots." . ‘"‘Surelyâ€"thereâ€"isâ€"sufficient pride in every Canadian to feel that i’l an | emergency arose that he would de. | fend his own fireside," _ contipued Major Hunter. What the most men in Canada know about firearms _‘ is fear. ‘To remedy this one thousand yard ranges ate necessary, guns oi the same pattern as one‘s neighbors, ‘ and warning and imstructtons . by some one on the serious blunders ol a green shot.

The speaker said he agreed that war should be the last thing to be reâ€" Defence League â€"will have _ neen wchieved. â€" Canada is a large counâ€" tty, and there are a great many difâ€" ferent types of people in it, and the progress of putriotism is like the moving back of the cliffs at Niagara ‘Falls, or the progress of purity â€" in elections, for it is somewhat © Jolib It takes little stuiy to see that a free born man has a birtbright to be taught his own right to defend his own fireside, said the speaker s in opening, but it takes more study to tell citizens what entails national integrity. Some nations have Icarnâ€" ad this, while others have never dozne so. Rome learned this but forgot, while England is still carrying . her school bag in this matter. _ Among the nations that have lcarned the lesson that will appeal to Canadlian citizéns is the little republic of Switcerland, for from time imemorâ€" ial the Swiss have been .noted as able fighters. These qualities vwere known long ago, but it js only in modern times that they have a+ tracted attention. The system _ oi the Swiss, asserted the major, is well worth studying.
