(Milverton Sun) Senator Borah of Idaho has on more than on« occasion demonstrated that he is a smallâ€"bore poli tician. He defeated the movement gathering force in the United States to enter the League of Nation: by appealing to antiâ€"British sentiment which is always comparatively easy to rouse. In his speech the other day he bitterly attacked Britain for endeavoring to maintain world peace after preventing his own naâ€" tion from having any part in such a laudable and worldâ€"saving effort. He is of the type of demagogic politician that could pass through a fiyâ€"screen with wings outspread. (Barrie Examiner) One industry has learned that it cannot bluff th Mackenzie King Government. When the Government learned that the rayon mill« at Sherbrooke, Que., har been shut down, throwing hundreds of people out of work, as the result, it was alleged, of the reducec protection given that industry under the new Japanes« treaty, immediate action was taken by the appoint ment of a commission to investigate the industry. Thi: brought the company to time, as, shortly afterwards the employees went back to work and it was anâ€" nounced that the Japanese competition was not as bad as had been anticipated. But this sudden move will not save the company from the investigation which its bluff had drawn upon itself. The people will have an opportunity to learn the facts about this very highly protected industry. Public health authorities have made proâ€" gress in their war against disease and in order to make further advancement they must have the loyal support of the public. We are pleased to comply with the request of the Health League of Canada to coâ€"operate in the national campaign which it is conducting in the interests of citizens, young and old. There is nothing of greater importance to indiâ€" vidual and national welfare. The object of the Health League is to by means of educational propaganda, authoritative information and adâ€" vice, to instruct public opinion and to enlist every man, woman and child, as far as possible, in the crusade, as well as governments, federal, provincial and municipal. Time may come when a coâ€"operative sysâ€" tem may be a real factor in human affairs. In England, Scotland and Sweden, workmen, as consumers, are controlling great mills, conductâ€" ing banks and running public utilities with marked success. Industry and labor in America and other countries might learn a lesson, especially from Sweden, where consumers‘ coâ€" operatives have broken monopolistic prices, cut down the high cost of living and paid workers a fair wage. How little progress has been made in a half century is forcibly shown in the current garment workers‘ strike in Boston. The emâ€" ployers refuse to recognize the workers‘ union and the strike leaders declare they "won‘t bother with the manufacturers‘" any further until state and city officials request conciliation conferences. In New York City a general walkâ€" out by building service employees has made "walkups" of palatial and less palatial apartâ€" ment houses, has stopped elevator operation in skyscrapers, and left thousands of apartments without heat in severely cold weather. The Proâ€" gressive Mine Workers‘ Union is calling for a general strike of 14,000 workers, and the emâ€" ployees and their employers in a tire and rubber manufacturing plant in Ohio remain deadâ€" locked. ‘ | PARENTS RESPONSIBLE FOR HEALTH | | OF CHILDREN | Past history shows that strikes increase with returning prosperity. When times are economically difficult, the worker is glad to have employment and accepts a thin pay envelope with the grim philosophy that half a loaf is better than no bread. When conditions improve he feels entitled to be sharer of them. Unâ€" happily the adjustments of relations between labor and capital are still so archaic that strikes and lockouts form an alarmingly large proporâ€" tion of the news from day to day.

The plan of the Dominion Railway Board is to have all centres going on fast time to turn back their clocks in unison and thus avoid the confusion of past years. Recently a new bill was introduced into the New York state legislature providing for sale of liquor in New York theatres. If the bill is passed, additional "hoists" may be necessary in the lobby, between the curtain hoists. Paths for pedestrians along main highways have been recommended by the Oshawa Motor Club and should have the serious consideration of the Highways Department. ‘ Governor Lehman of New York has not called out the militia to check the elevator emâ€" ployees on strike the first week. The strikers are backed by the powerful American Federaâ€" tion of Labour, and the realty interests, by capital as powerful. The number of appeals for the intervention of the militia indicate the alarm felt by New York. The authoritiee do not appear to be alarmed and expect the opposâ€" ing forces to soon come to an amicable settle ment. Politicians are supposed to be experts in reading the public mind. They are too busy with their private quarrels to note that the impression most people have got out of the fighting is that the old Conservative Government in Ontario was an inefficient and corrupt government and that the present Liberal Government numbers few political angels. Which makes it a sorry outlook for the taxpayer. (Financial Post) l Vituperation has been the order of debate in the Ontario Legislature since the present session uumd.‘ Across the floor have been flung such allegations of inefficiency and crookedness in government as seldom , have been heard in any British Legislature. i One word of wisdlom scems to have been spoken since the session opened. Hon. T. B. McQuesten made bold one day to suggest that the members stop their personal bickering and get down to business. It was a good suggestion but was not taken. This is gratifying evidence that a sense of obliâ€" gation for favors received has not wholly disappeared, in the rural or semiâ€"rural sections at least. As against this, however, it is rather disheartening to find that in Toronto, where no less than 125,000 people were at one time on relief, there has apparently not been a single case reported of restitution being made with the coming of better times. On the other hand, a number of cases have been reported of the forced return of relief monies dishonestly secured.

He paints oneâ€"haif of the outer surâ€" face of the pail red and the other balt yellow. When he has emptied each pail, he turns it around, so that from & distance he can easily tell which pails have been emptied, thus sayâ€" ing a great many.steps. It is necesâ€" sary, of course, to have a hole in each side of the upper edge of the bucket so that it can be hung on the tree with either the red or the yellow King George loathed ostentation and publicity where his private actiâ€" vities were concerned. The late Lord Ponsonby, Keeper of the Privy Purse, told a story only five days before his death which wel)l iDustrates this trait. The farmâ€"manager agreed. But, he added, the buil had won many prizes and had been sold at a good profit. ‘The King said nothing until the animal had gone. Then, one Sunday afternoon, on his usu@a} walk around the farms, he enquired If they had not bought some rather expensive cattle recently. A certain farmâ€"manager on one of the roya) farms bought a bull at a very high price. It swept the board at all agricultural shows. Finally it was sold at an even higher price. ..
