_ TUESDAY, 8EPTEMBER 24. 1918

The Pndvincial Exhibition opens today

'in"‘Charlottetovi/n"'and*ifmthe'3iromIse'“and* expectations of the past few ays_arc ful- filled, and the weather keeps on its good behaviour, there _will be a record attend- ance. The stage is set for the biggest ex- hibition yet held here and the nu_niei'ous attractions which usually follow in the

wakée of large gatherings are already on han .

The attractions for which the Exhibit-

ion management are responsible and which will be. seen on _the Exhibition grounds, are legitimate and designed for the entertainment of those attending the Exhibition. There will probab1y_be others outside and throughout the city, means for the quick acquisition of wealth etc. I_n these the visitors must be guided by their own judgment and if they fail to realize the promised wealth they must lay the blame upon their unlucky stars.Ii_i any case if they make a bad investment they will meet with little sympathy. The man with the get rich-quick scheme usually assures himself of his toll; the investors are a sec-,‘ ondary consideration. _

As to the exhibition, there _are many

reasons why it should be the biggest yet' held here. Many enquiries have come from the other provinces for accommodation; many entries have been made from out- side points both for the races and for ex- hibits; the crops in this province are the largest and probably the best raised _in the province for many years. In addition to this there has been a looking forward ti this exhibition and everybody is ready fo. it. It is true.the harvest is on and if the weather is favorable our farmers will be busy at least during part of the week but the work will not be so strenuous during the whole week that the great majority of them will not be able to attend during part at least of the exhibition. _ The exhibition is a matter of persona interest to every farmer, to every person in the pr`ovince;_ a matter of personal in- terest that it should be successful both from the educational and the financially_ successful point of view, and it will be to, the interest of all to endeavour in everyj way to make it a success, to boost it, to at-l tend it when possible and to give visitors every possible assistance.

O 1"IGIITIN(i`r IT FACE TO FACE

_.l_____.._.

Locking the jam up to prevent the boy

from stealing it will save the jam, provided the locking is not neglected, but it will not prevent the boy from growing up a thief. To save the boy he must be taught- that stealing the jam or anything else is a sin, is unmanly, is to hurt himself and his par- ents. If, with the jam in sight and within reach, he can resist the temptation to steal it, he has a good prospect of growing up an honest, manly boy. _

A man who had become a slave to the

drink habit, one day during a lucid inter- val, took himself severely to task for his weaknem. “Is this thing going to get you in the end?” he asked himself. He went out, bought a bottle of whiskey, placed it _with a glass beside it on the mantlepiece in his room. “Now,” he said, addressing the bottle, “You think you’ve got me. I’m going to iight you face to face and let the best man win.” He won out. He con- quered himself and his enemy. It meant a fight, a strong determined, persistent, con- tinuous fight. From being a dull, sickening often weakening effort to resist the temp- tation the fight became a glorious game, glorious with the assurance of victory and of continued success. The' man won; the enemy had no more terrors for him.

Eve other temptation can be_faced in

like mldhner, can be met face to face and beaten.. Every moment of successful res- istance adds to the strength for further resistance; “each victory will help you some other to win.”' _

The fight against drink is not always

controller, authority` to control the coal

the mines of Nova Scotia and New Bruns

like the quanti`ty of coal that should come `rom them. Appeals and advice from the _lovernment have been unavailing, so that _he action now taken became a necessity.

“Mr, Magrath has been given wide au-

thority. If advisable, he may take possess- ion of any mine or mining plant and oper- ate it on behalf of the country until the war is over, appointing such assistance as -nay be required for the conduct of the plant. Under the Fuel Controller’s direct- ion, the soft coal mines of Eastern Canada should assist to a very considerable extent in tiding the country over t'he coal short- :ge period of the coming winter. But ther; are wider possibilities. Mr. Magrath’s dir- ection of coal production for reasons of immediate necessity may provide a valu- .ible experiment in the national operation of coal mines. If the min-es can be oper- ated to greater national advantage in a war emergency, why not in peace time, as well? Soft coal will be an import- ant factor in the post-bellum industrial ievelopment of Canada. Mr. Magrath’s ex- periment should be closely watched. Hel has an uncommon opportunity for demon- strating the wisdom, or the reverse, of the _rsevailing movement in the direction of the iiationalization of industry.”

~ GERMANY’S TOOLS A

What will be the effect upon Bulgaria.

and Turkey of the German and Austrian proposal for peace discussion? Berlin makes its own explanation of these over- tures, but in Sofia and Constantinople they will be interpreted undoubtedly as proof that-the Germans have abandoned all idea of winning and are beginning a series of advances for the purposes of making the best terms available. Such is the fact, and German misrepresentation cannot prevent the Bulgarians and the Turks from recog- nizing it.These tools of Germany have been accustomed to utterances of quite another flavor from Berlin, to assertions that the German sword will be _victorious and that a great German empire will impose its own, terms upon the world. The Turks and Bul- garians have been docile tools of a Ger- many which breathed force and constant- ly boasted its ability to destroy its ene- mies. So long as they believed Germany capable of making these boasts good, the Turks and Bulgarians had reason to be-' lieve their services would be repaid in the end by territorial rewards and by the pow- erful protection of Berlin. But when Ber- lin and Vienna are seen fishing for a com- promise peace the Turks and Bulgarians will be quick to recognize that the future holds for them neither reward nor pro- tection, that all their expenditures in blood and treasure have _been worse than useless, and that in the end the Allies will be able to deal with them according to their deserts.
