, ARE ws m r1": AFTER. much discussion in a cir- "cle the Hon. Robert FbrkefFbd- eral Minister of Immigration and Colonization, appears to have arriv- ed at some definite scheme by which it is expected the vexed question of immigration may colne nearer to solution. A tri-party urangement has been concluded between the Im- periaLthe Federal and seine Prov- incial Governments‘ for bringing British boys to Canada for farm plaoemen‘. _'I‘he first lflll ouncement nladewas in tile British House of Commons. when the Secretary of for the Dominions informed the House that the Boys’ Land Set- tlement Scheme would be in opera- tion in i929 in all the Provinces of Canada except Alberta and British Columbia. According tdthe first an- nouncement of non: Mr. Forke, the Provincial Governments participat- ing in this arrangement are New Bruliswickpntarlo and Manitoba. In

a supplementary statement published in yesterday's Guardian he included

the Provinces of Saskatchewan and Nova Scotia. There is an obvious discrepancy here between the state- ments of Mr. Forke and the British Secretary of State which it is diffi- cult to understand. According to

But this year it. seems to be no more than the old-fashioned “flu." and the best thing to do is to treat it as an old enemy, neither minimizing nor magnifying its im- portance. _

There are two ways oi being fool- ish about these epidemics, suggets an exchange, and both of them are calculated to make matters a lot worse than they need be. One way is to say that there isn't all epidem-
