"The Tory Party, in spite of ifs proper respect‘ for author- ity, has always been more demo- cratically governed than the oth- er side. The Liberals inherit- ed the tradition of the old Whig oligarchy, and Labour seems to have taken over most of what remains of the Whigs. But the Conservatives, while reverencing the institutions of the country, have never bowed the knee to an autocra- tts leader of the Gladstone type. with the natural result that the relations between leader and led , have always bccn freer and more ' cordial in the Tory camp than they seem to be, for example, in the MacDonald entourage, where even old Parliamentary hands and colleagues are rumoured to have to ask permission to speak to the Prime Minister."

Many Appointments

The Bennett Government Mil be called upon to fill some high official

positions within a year or two, some er who “sums m; an“ and m! fights

of them veryfsoon. In this connec-

tion the interesting rumor comes‘ Mo“ people have gunned from sh

from Ottawa that Boron Byng of Vimy may succeed Lord Willingdon as Governor-General on the expira- tion of the lattcrls tcrm of office a year hence, Of course, this is not a Canadian Government appointment, but it is intimated that when Premier Bennett goes to London to attend the Imperial Conference he will nat- urally be consulted by Premier Ram- say MacDonald and that he will favor the return of Baron Byng for a second term.

Among the high places to be dir- & Elcl by, the Government at Ottawa are several Lieutenant-Gov- ernorships. including those of Prince Edward Island, Nova Scoiia, Ontario, Saskatchewan and British Columbia, which have expired or will expire within a short period. There are also several important judicial positions h he filled. Successors to Chief Jus- tice sn- wiillam Mulock and Chief Justice Meredith of the Ontario Ap- pellate and King's Bench Courts will have to be named and two higher court judges must also be named in Quebec. Another important legal ap- pointment to be made shortly is that ef Registrar of the supreme Court of Canada. The High Commissioner- ghip in London and the embassy ‘at Washington will call for the appoint- ment of new men and the Harbor Boards of Halifax, Montreal, Van- couver and possibly other ports are likely to be vacated because of the active participation of members in the recent election.

The Tariff Commission as it exist- ed has been dissolved because of its failure to perform the duties expected of it in addition to the participation of the Chairman as a candidate in the recent election. A new Md! ihlt will act in an advisory capacity is to be framed by act of Parliament. This will eall for the appointment of men of high standing in differ- ent parts of the country and Ir.

European despatches indicate that French armies are carrying out a ser- is: of manoeuvres near the Italian frontier. This certainly is w. testing time for the League of Nations.

Telephone Tyranny

Owen Sound is the latest town to have a tarantula scare. A despatch from that place tells of the finding of one of these venomous spiders in a bunch of bananas. The discovery has brought with it all the usual fears of sudden and violent deaih from the bite of the insect.

This h a fable that deserves to be definitely squashed. The fact of the matter is that there is said to be no case on record in which the bite of a so-called tarantula has had fatal ef- fects. Reputable scientists are author-

A man has been writing to the newspapers against what he consid- ers the undue priority given to tele- phone calls by business people and others.

He went into a store to make a small purchase. The only clerk pres- ent stopped in the midst of waiting on him to answer the telephone. The continued for some time, and the customer walked out without. completing his purchase.

Going into a bank to keep an .ap- pointment with the manager, he had no sooner been admitted to this of- ficials office than the cold official turned to answer a telephone call. The telephone conversation persisted for such a time that the customer left after felling the manager's see- retary that he could not wait.

The same day the same individual kept an appointment with his physic- ian. Be had no sooner entered the physician's office than the telephone

bite is no more serious than that of many other varieties of spider.

While Premier Bennett's Cabinet has yet ‘to prove its mettle, says the Sydney Post, all will agree that it includes an unusually large number cf able Ministers, and that it has got cfl to a prompt and promising start. In the average Canadian Cabinet of

dozen men have carried personal ap- peals to the public by their outstand- ing abilfty.~ ni Ml’. King's Cabinet which suffered defeat last month, not more than three or four such Ministers could be counted. Mr. King Mr. Lapointe and Mr. Dunning

rim ensued which taxed the patienifs temper to the utmost.

The newspaper correspondent who cites these experiences of his own wants to iznow why it is that one who goes to the trouble and takes the time to make a personal call should have to stand by because someone else rings the phone. What gives the man at-the other end of the telephone the precedence? Why must the individ- ual in person give way to theloutsid-

most persons, be regarded as the only members of the outgoing Cabinet of first-rank calibre. But the late Liber- al Government had been admittedly weakened greatly in personnel by the loss of such Ministers as Mr. Field- ing, Sir Lomer Gouin, and Mr. Robb. Nevertheless in its best days the

milar annoying experiences, and have accepted the interruptions and delays as inevitable-and therefore unavoid- able. ft is, nevertheless, most an- noying and even exasperating, for a busy man or woman to have his or her time thus wasted by invisible in- terlopers. Perhaps there ought to be some system of ethics or rules of courtesy to govern the situation thus indicated. But thus far no one has ever suggested any.

While Britain and Canada, in view of the achievement of the R-100, arc discussing the prospects of a regular airship service between the Mothcr Country and this Dominion, the fn- ternational Zeppelin Transport Cor- poration is gathering data which it hopes will make possible within a few years a weekly service between Europe and the United States.

While the money value of the tour- ist business may be over-estimated it is well that it should be encourag- ed as it is‘ capable of alitiost unlimit- ed expansion. Canada is in fact be- coming themecca of a great army cf holiday seekers from across the bor- der who cannot afford trips to Eur- ope and other parts of the world. The assistant to the Secretary of the Treasury at Washington recently made a speech in which he referred to the growing tourist business of the north. He said in part:

"It's not the supposed American thirst but the lure of Canada's beau- fiful scenery, one hospitality and good roads that brings 25,000,000 persons across the Dominion border annual- ly."

As predicted, the attendance at the Provincial Exhibition‘ this year is breaking all previous records. The weather man is cooperating to make the event s success, and the number and quality of exhibits is highly satis- factory. The advertising value of such a splendid exhibition to the Province is incalculsblc, and the directors and all who assisted in the work are to be congratulated upon their well directed enterprise and inltitative.

"You cannot quench a fire by bothl feeding it and extinguishing it." i‘

As you know, no heart can get strong unless it is exercised, asked to {do some extra work, by pumping a ‘little more than it has been doing.

On the other hand, if the heart has been doing a lot of extra work, due ‘to some ailment, iin the body, then it does not seem like good sense to ask it to con- tinue to work hard even after the ail- ment 0r infection has left the body.

The natural thing to do then is to give it as much vest as possible.

Your safest plan is to leave this in the hands of your physician, who
