In the smoke-choked atmos- phere of our larger cltics, with their congested and crowded buildings, such ornamentation is practically out of the question. In our' clean and smokeless atmosphere flowers will grow anywhere on the earth or -above it. if they are given_a little soil and a‘ little breathing space and sunshine. Many flower lovers, with- out regard to space or inconvenience will have their clump of color, big or little, and tend them with scru- pulous care and find delight in them not only for themselves but for others.

ORIGIN OF EVIL.

OLUMES have been writtcmser- I tlonal and waged on the origin of evil alld. sq far at least. no satisfactory couclu. sion has been reached except one, namelythat evil exists. There is practical unanimity on this p01“; and sensible men and women do not care a contimntal where or how it originated. They are only con- cerned with the fact that it is here and the question how best to mini- mize it. This is at least practical. At present a section of this school of inquiry is deeply agitated over the origin of the present coli- dition of our country roads alyi upon whom to put the blame. Of course, certain politicians place the blame on their political opponents, and on all excessively rainy season, carrying the argument to a ridicul- ous absurdity as there, are many still living who remember the roads and the rainy seasons of the past four years. and who remember also that tile present condition is. by comparison. the worst ever. experienced.

they have

As in the case of the origin of evil. it does not matter a hoot whether

the bad roads originated with or through the fault of any‘ political party. The thing to be recognized is that

we have today roads that are dis- creditable to the province, and that the one important thing is to get them into is fit a condition as pos- sible and to do it now!

The scorching Mr. Macdonald gave the Government for their shameful neg- lect and spite in ‘the matter of the Scuris breakwater. was deserved.

GOLD IN CANADA

Q. What is the history of gold in Canada? _

A. Gold has been found in every province of Canada excepi’ Prince Edward Island. The first discovery reported was made in Quebec 111 1824 on the Gilbert River. 50 miles south of Quebec city. Placer mining has been carried on intermittently there since. Place discoveries were made in other provinces in later years. Lode mining began in Nova Scotia in i858. The total gold pro- duotion now exceeds $35,000,000 an- nually and is steadily increasing as new discoveries are made especially in Ontario and Quebec.
