bonowed or secured under the fed- eral unemployment grant which went into election road work. It had every opportunity of winning the election if its record was such as to commend it to public opinion. The fact that it was voted out of office is convincing evidence that the people of this Province wanted it voted out of office. That is the long and short of the matter, and no sophistry or inslnuation on the part of the disgruntled Liberal or- gan will change the fact or alter. by one jot or tittle, the verdict which the people have rendered.

, Frheie can be no question but that. with‘ favorable weather, this year's Exhibition will eclipse in importance anyiflling hitherto attempted in provincial history. The horse rac- ing programme alone promises to be the best ever witnessed on a Mari- time track. The closes in agricul- ture and live stock are wivcli filled. and there is an excellent display if merchants’ and manufacturers’ products. The amusement features which add color to the Exhibition, will also appeal to a very large number of visitors.

Cancer And Chemistry

The magazl ie Time, reprints from Science astatement by Dr. Ellice McDonald that cancer will be cured through the instrumentality of physical chemistry. Dr. McDonald ls a Canadian, a. graduate of Me- Gill University, who for some years has had charge of the cancer re- search laboratories at the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania. He was cori- suited by the Ontario Cancer Re- search Commission, which visited both the United States and Europe this Summer in search of new in- formation. According to Science, Dr. McDonald pictures the living cell (normal or cancerous) and its system (l) nucleus, (2) protoplasm. (3) semi-permeable cell membrane, (4) environment (blood and tissue juices). From its environment the cell gets its energy-producing mat- erials. Through its environment it gets rid of- its wastes. Glycogen, or animal sugar, is almost the sole source of cell energy. In normal cells half the absorbed glycogen is oxidized, half turned to lactic acid. .In cancerous cells, for every 10 gly- cogen molecules 12 split up into lac- tic acid and one is oxidized.

Other facts about cancer, pro. duced by Dr. McDonald, are: Can- cer blood is more alkaline than nor- mal blood, and the more alkaline the blood the more quickly comes death. Cancer victims have much sugar in their blood, and the ‘more sugar the quicker death. Cancer cells have relatively more potassium and less calcium than normal and the greater such difference the more virulent the disease-

To cure cancer, then, Dr. McDon- aid believes conditions must be pro- duced Which Will (l) normalize the breakup of body sugar; (2) nonnal- ire the bloods alkaline state; (3) reduce high blood sugar; (4) m. crease the cell's calcium; (5) re- duce the cell's potassium. After representing these densed statements concerning a prevalent and growing disease, Its treatment and possible cure, m, McDonald is quoted as saying: "These criteria are few, but at Dresent these are the sole criteria for a cancer cure. The future wlll lay down more andmore specifica- tions until these become so obvious ‘to some genius that he will say ‘with those specifications theans- wer can only be one thing to satis- fy all the requirements."

efWVlzat The Returns Show”

The inevitable post rnortcm on the provincial election results is now being held by our local con- temporary, which finds solace in the discovery that the Liberal candid- ates in Prince County polled a larg- er total of votes on August 6 than they did in the election of i927 and that Mr. Higgs, defeated Liberal candidate for Charlottetown, also polled more votes than he did when he was defeated 1h 1927. An addi- tional consolation might be derived from the reflection that had Mr. Eliggs and his defeated colleagues polled a still larger number of votes, fewer votes would probably have gone to their Conservative op- ponents, and had they polled as many as our contemporary confid- cntly predicted they would poll on the eve of the election, they would all be elected and would not require to be consoled editorial- ly or otherwise.

’ It is the privilege of a. defeated party prass to hold post mortems, and to derive such melancholy sat- bfaction as it can from the process. It ls scarcely its privilege, however, lo cast uncalled-for aspersions up- on its victorious political opponents. Irhe Lea. organ expresses surprise at the large vote iblled in the elec- tion and suggests that "if there h». been undue, improper or Illegal influence at work, the matter should be thoroughly probed.” Its statement, probably for good and sufficient reasons, is ambiguous. If the Liberal organ has any know- ledge of undue, improper or il- legal "influence" being exerted, it is, of course, its duty to publish the fact. Whispered insinuation about such matters ls deserving of nothing but contempt.

The election returns show that the Lea. Government was voted out of office by the general voice of the electors of the Province. All the evidence points to the fact that the Government did its level best to avoid being voted out. It cancelled two ‘by-elections that threatened to result in a. stronger Conservative Opposition at the last session of the Legislature. It spent the best part of that session in passing leg- fslation which was frankly in the nature of political gestures. It exer- cised complete control of the elec- last minute when he seems to have tion machinery, and went to the joined in the general rush to cover. extent of violating the law by ‘ap- .

The experience of the On- tario Llberals proves that i; new leader is not very easy to find or de- velop. No one quite knows who leads the Liberal party in Ontario and those who have an idea do not know in what direction he ls moving.

"Good morning," she said; "I have just been awakened by one of your work- men removing ashes from my back- yard, so I thought l'd call you up and see how you enjoy having your sleep disturbed at this hour of the morning." Her reprisal was decisive. The general of the ash forces promptly ordered his men to start their working day later than 4 o'clock in the morning.

The British Board of Trade has come to the conclusion that there is good reason to anticipate that the benefits which may accrue to the trade of this country from the increased margins of preference af- forded by the modifications in the Canadian tariff will more than off- set any reduction in trade which may result from the higher rates of duty imposed on a nwnbei- of Unit- ed Kingdom products.
