HORSES IN CAMP

Sir,--Some time s80 the IPreven- tion of Cruelty to Animals Society asked the City Council for permis- sionto build sheds on the Market Square to shelter and protect the truckmews horses from adverse weather. The head of this society should take a walk around the Light Horse Company's grounds. if they do they should hang their heads in shame. At the grounds at Brigh- ton there are -i0 or 50 poor dumb animals hitched to a fence with no shelter from broiiing sun andl tor- rents of rain a pitiful sight for hu- man eyes to look upon. if the Gov- eminent wants to make holiday camping grounds for those troops they should provide a proper place for these poor dumb animals. There were the gallant Light Horse 00m- pany from 1914 to 1920. We did not see many such poor light horse equipments between those dates, overseas or overseas. No, only in time cl peace do we see such cruel- ty as this.

L. M. FORTIER Chairman of Committee. Annapolis Royal, Nova, scotiu, July 14th. 1926.

commanding a majority in the House, he refused Mr. King a dis- solution; when unprecedentedcon- ditions arise it is absurd to sug- gest that precedents which have only an informal sanction should fllilily and Lord iByng acted in what in his judgment were the best in- terests of the Canadian people,

The high authority of the Deputy Minister of Justice had certified that the status of the acting Minis- ters was perfectly regular and forti- fied by abundant precedents some of them created by Mr. King him- self, but the latter proceeded to challenge their authority on a want of confidence motion in the House. Somehow. he managed to converts number of Progressives, who had previously broken with him in dis- gust tc the notion that some con- stitutional precedente had been vio- lated Ibut even then he would not have secured s majority for his motion if one Progressive, Mr. Bird, had not broken his pair and record- ed his vote for the Liberals. How- ,ercr, the (lovcrnment found itself actually in a minority of one and obviously could not carry on and fulfil its purpose of completing the business of the session. So the sooner a general election came the better, and Lord Byng accepted Mr. Mcighems advice to dissolve Par- liament on July 2nd.

Accordingly the issue new goes before the people and s definite clear-out verdict is greatly to be desired.

Meanwmile Mr. King has been pouring out statements couched in the most inflammatory terms whose object. is to induce forgetiiuiness of the mnititudinous errors and mis- deeds of his wretched Ministry and make the voters believe that the principles of responsible parliamen- tary (lovernmeut have been violat- ed. that Lord Byng has been a de- liberate pccomplice in their viola- tion and bat a great mnstitutional issue has een raised. 1n his mad (‘hlkrin a losing control of the reins of war he is ready to go any length in denunciatory langu- avge and pl tform a-sitatlofi-‘and he has airead performed the lament- nbic pubii disservice of involving the repre ntative or tho crown deeply t a political conlruyorsma thing w bout precedence in the Dfllitk" " annals of any ihltish 0min

The French are more nearly right, because they meaure the length of the trunk only, instead of the legs ‘and trunk. A long pair of legs 011 a short body, makes a type that cer- tainly should not be expected to weigh as much as one with short legs and long body, and yet. as tail as the other type. l Another point that is tor-gotten in: llils weight or overweight business,‘ is that all fat people do -not acquire their fat in the 581116 manner. Most folks acquire their excess weight, in the very simple manner 0f eat-' ing too much. With this is assoc- iated the other extreme. that is un- derworking or underex-ercising. The excess food i5 stored as fflt. and just does not get worked off the ‘body.
