Then, too, throughout the world, there is evident a growing spirit of peace as reflected in the getting together of such nations as France, Germany and Great Britain in a sinâ€" cere effort to avert further wars. In the League of Natiops was realized the true Chrisâ€" tian ideal while in the Treaty of Locarno which binds the principal nations engaged in the the late war to work for perpetual peace, the world has taken its greatest step forward since the signing of the Armistice. Linked up wit}' Thanksgiving Day in accordâ€" ance wth a Government, decreé, was the reâ€" cognition of Armistice Day. The signing of the Armistice marked the ending of the Great War and is long to be remembered as bringing to a close a struggle in which many a youth gave his life for the honor and love of his country. The Armistice happily averted furthâ€" er sacrifices of the lives of Canadians and others engaged in the struggle. The observâ€" ance of Armistice Day also afforded an occasion to honor the memory of those who fell in the | KING GOV‘T WILL MEET PARLIAMENT | As had been intimated, the King Governâ€" ment will meet Parliament. Announcement to this effect was made last week by the Préemier following audiences with His Excelâ€" lency, the Governorâ€"General. The Premier deâ€" elared that he knew of no precedent either in ‘Canada or Great Britain to justify calling upon the leader of the largest group that did not command a majority in Parliament to form a government. He pointed out that the only way in which rule by the people could be made possible was to allow Parliament to decide who is to govern. It will be called at the earliest opportunity and until Parliament meets the Government will refrain from making any appointments other than those essential to carry on the public business. His Excellency, the Governorâ€"General; has accepted the advice of Premier King and the Government will conâ€" tinue in office pending the meeting of Parliaâ€" ment next month. ©â€"The Leader of the Opposition, Rt. Hon. Mr. Meighen, on the other hand argues that a large majority of the elected Progressives have declared against Liberal policies and eould not therefore be depended upon to supâ€" port the Liberals in Parliament.. Lacking any assurance of Progressive assistance, retention of office by Mr. King_the Opposition Leader there is no precedent to support the position | smm fes taken by Mr. King.

Let us take leave forever of the passions, animosities and bitterness of late years. In friendly conversations between the representatives of great and equal nations there will be ho dictated conditions or imperaâ€" tive deman@s. I cannot believe that reliecs of the unhappy past will be allowed to encumber the way of the future." ed special attention to the importance of his services to the nation and Empire. In South Africa the Prince was receivel with marked enthusiasm by the Boers, while in the South American Republics he also created a very favorable impression. His frank personality, ready human sympathy and other winning traits of character, won the hearts of the people in the countries visited and his tour has done much to strengthen the ties of friendâ€" ship between the nations visited and his own. ‘His popularity in his own country was also attested ‘by the warmth of the welcome he received on his arrival homg, there being genâ€" eneral recognition of his valuable \services to the Empire. â€" ‘The recent homeâ€"coming of the Prince of Wales from his extended visit to South Africa and the South American Republics has directâ€" | THE HOMEâ€"COMING OF THE PRINCE | The anniversary of the discovery of Amerâ€" ica by Christopher Columbus last month was made the occasion for high tributes to his memory by the three great nations, Italy, Spain and America. Italy was specially interâ€" ested in honoring his memory owing to his birth at Genoa in that country, Spain because of hiz long residence and citizenship there and its prominent part in his expeditions and America because of his discovery of this westâ€" ern continent. > The discovery of America marked the beâ€" ginning of a new epoch in the history of the world and one writer has truly said that "there is not a corner of the earth that has not been deeply and permanently influenced by the development of the New World. It has changed the life of man on the earth more notably than any other cireumstance in hisâ€" tory." ! CELEBRATE DISCOVERY OF AMERICA | Canada has in recent years been making astonishing strides in world trade. Reducing the export trade figures to 1913 values Canada is shown to have made a gain of 94 per cent., leading the world in the proportionate gain made. This should dissipate the pessimism which some are prone to indulge in. Florida has been experiencing an unpreâ€" cedented boom. It is said that all the gold, oil and land rushes in the history of the United States have been surpassed by the torrent of migration pouring into that State from all parts of the country. t EDITORIAL NOTES Mer hard labor upon Gornet Ferrins, up af the buctrnbmem« Cl bovatycrntitines sertieel ces o ie i Anndiat Ckig EMOF ECE CS Mrs. Janisse was convicted " of mg-mu- and ° &ts â€" '_‘:}" s t lt . se y MR manslaughter fwo weeks ago for.the| mother were carried inside on .a $ Le“motw’ shooting _ of ~Clayton _ MéMullin,| stretcher.

The advance, however, was by no means uniform, as several substanâ€" tial losses were scattered throughâ€" out the‘list.
