Canada has lost her most distinguished poet ln the death yesterday at his Ottawa home of Duncan Campbell Scott. To the younger gen- oration Dr. Scott was perhaps little more than a name, yet his best work has that quality of time- lessness which is the distinctive mark of all great art. As a young man he was an intimate friend of Archibald Lampman, and throughout life he had a passion for Bach's music. His poetry shows great variety of style and subiect matter. There

The largest majorities of any Councillor or Assemblyman in the Provincial election were those obtained by the Conservative leader, Hon. Dr. MacMillan, and his colleague in Charlotte- town, Maj. D. L. Mathieson.

While details ef the new food contracts with the United Kingdom have not been revealed, there is at least satisfaction to be drawn from the announcement that Canada will continue to ship large quantities of food to the Old Country at "revised" prices. The situation has been one of difficulty on both sides, and especially for the United Kingdom negotiators. Britain has only about $315,000,000 left of Canada's $1,250,- 000,000 loan to her. She has only about $300,- 000,000 left of the 9,750,000,000 United States loan, and she has been using, in the past few months, United States dollars to make up about 50 per cent of her trade deficit with Canada.

Britain still needs food from Canada, such as bacon and other meats, and cheese, as well, of course, as wheat. She has been making de- termined efforts, however, to get as much food- stuffs as possiale from sterling countries, where she would not have to pay dollars.
