EMPIRE DA Y

"To regain prosperity without self seeking, and to carry with us those whom the burdens of the past years have disheartened."

In this memorable phrase, on the occasion of the first Efinllire-vride broadcast On Christmas Day, 1932, His Majesty King George V summed up the gigantic effort which the British Empire was then making to- wards world economic recovery. That effort is still being put forth, with the goal measurably nearer by rea- on of the events which have occur- i-Ied in recent weeks preliminary to opening cf the World Economic

Conference at London.

Tomorrow, on the anniversary of the birthday of the late Queen Vic- toria, Empire Day will be observed as a national holiday throughout the British commonwealth oi nations. Tho vast extent of territory includ- Od within the Empire was strikingly illustrated on the occasion of the broadcast above referred to. First England was heard on the air, then Wales, Scotland, Ulster, the Irish Free State. The voices of Canada. followed, Halifax sending its greet- ings, Montreal coming on in French and English, Toronto, Winnipeg and Vancouver adding their voices. Wel- lington, New Zealand, picked up the chain, followed by Brisbane and Melbourne in Australia, and Cape ' _ Town, Union of South Africa, Port ' _' laid, added a few words. The liner ' "Majestic" in the Atlantic Ocean and the liner "Empress oi Britain" ' in the Red Bea took part in ex- tending Christmas greetings. In England the programme was given on Christmas afternoon; it was heard in British Columbia before _ the sun had risen on Christmas ' morning, while in other parts oi the Ilmpiro it was already the day after “Majestic” in the Atlantic Ocean - Christmas! More impressive even than the vast distances which separ- ated the speakers on the programme was the united voice in which they gave expreuion to Empire ideals and loyalty.

A few months ago, in the Canad- hn House of Commons, it was stated that lire inuo between the two lead- hg political parties was one of ‘Commonwealth or Empire." For- tunately‘ no such issue exists. Im- perial sentiment is not. a matter oi politics: the u... statesmen of both parties, both in Canada and Great Biotin, have been staunch Imper- iallsto. To them, as to every loyal British OIQIMOOIIIBODWCIlV/h and Inspire moan the some thing, “a fans oonfedoncy of many lands un- do! the rule of His Britannic Ma-

presided. The event marked s new step forward in Empire history, and ‘m; [mpfgygfl QOOBOBIIU conditions flfi end; agreements negotiated be- tween the various units of the Em- pire at Ottawa will be of enhanced benefit to all concerned.

In the public schools throughout the Province, Empire and Arbour Day will be celebrated today. Ap- propriate programmes have been ai- mnged for the occasion, and par- ents and others should show their interest by a large attendance at these functions.

By way of comparison it is stated that in 190i university student en- rolment in the Dominion stood at. 9,820. By 1911 it was 16,675; in 192i the figure had grown to 26.385; in '31 to 40,569 and last year to 48,143. llmrolment has gone up 55 per cent. in the past decade. In thirty years‘ enrolment has increased by 320 oerI cent, and in the same period the population of university age-given u l’! to 26 years-has advanced only 80 per cent. The proportion of women to men in the universities has increased very rapidly, the reg- istration in 1932 being 245 per cent. over that of i901.

NATIONS IN ARREARS

Individuals who find some dim- culty in meeting their current obli- gations, says the Ottawa Journal, may like to know that twenty-six other countries which are members of the League of Nations are in the some boat. ‘These states-com- prising almost half‘ of the league membership-altogether owe the organization 23,613,509 gold francs, or $5,082,753. l. sum which would run the League for nine months, according to its present reduced budget.

China owes the League in dues more than $2,000,000. Peru has paid dues only one year since 1020. Bol- ivia. and Honduras never have paid their full dues in any year. Fbur- teen oi the debtors are Latin-Ameri- can countries-in fact, only Mexico and Venezuela in this group are clear oi debt to the League. Among European countries Germany is the heaviest debtor and owes $286,093. Australia, the only British country not fully paid, owes $00,322 of her dues for last year.

Members oi the ueague are assess- ed on a basis of national budget comparisons, and a total oi 1,018 units of payment are allocated among the fifty-seven members. The British nnpire is a very heavy contributor. the United F‘ alone paying 10s units. France and

when you get a pain anywhere in the body it is only natural thlt you should take some medicine to get relief; aspirin, phenaeetinfi. caffeine.

Physicians now agree that if the

But what is pain and why do you ever have pain?

One definition is that "Pain is Nature's pl'0I.t35L;" Nature's protest against something which is not g9. ing right or properly in your body.

If you take medicine to relieve the pain you are, in a. sense, like an ostrich that hides its head in the sand, because your common sense

Something wrong. and the wrong should be rlghted. Nature by caus- illg the pain is protesting against the wrong, and waming you in a very pointed way that the cause szhoulti be found, and if possible, removed,

What is my point?

That if you can possibly bear the l pain until you can sec your phy-l sicians and give him a chance to find the cause, you may avoid some serious ailment, which, although present for some time, is only just beginning lo make its presence known by causing pain at some particular point.

Sin-In regard to the discussion now agitating the minds of the taxpayers of Bummerside with roi- crence to the sitc or location of the proposed new auxiliary water sup- ply for the Town, the attention of the authorities has become focus- sed on a small field below the Trotting Park. close to the 8110". immediately at the rear of the houses fronting on West Water Street.

It. is possible that a sufficient supply of water oi "an unasoertain- ed quality might be obtained in that iocaton, but it would be well for those in authority who have to decide ths matter to scrutinize. the possible dangers of this locality very closely before committing the town to the heavy expense incid- ent to a project of th's kind.

It is claimed that when Nil‘. Doane, the highly qualified water engineering expert from Halifax, was here some days ago inspecting the various water sites in this vic- inity, he expressed the ' opinion that the above site, and all other sites in the low-lying bolt running across the lower edge of the town near the harbour, were dangerously close to the water front and in ser- ions danger oi salt ivaier seepage through the subsol, which might not become apparent for some months alter the wclls were in op- eration. If this were to happen it would permanently ruin the site and it would have to be abandoned.

In addition, the sewage and waste from these homes flow or n are thrown over the ground near this site. This site being perhaps the lowest ground in that vicinity, a great quantity of sewage and other filth, as well as surface water from the more northerly parts of the town, must necessarily flow over or seep into the ground on this site, some of which Ynust penetrate to a great depth. In addition to this considerable refuse must have been dumped in this locality and there would likely be some seepage of oil and gasoline from the large oil tanks close by. An accident of any kind to these huge on tanks causing them to burst would likely permanently ruin any wells sunk in that locality, particularly li they are to be only 200 feet in depth, as has been suggested.

It would seem to be the course of wisdom on the part of our Water Commissioners and Town Council- lors, before entering into s. con- tract with any person regarding this project, that they protect the tovm in every way possible by first, Obtaining the written opinion of Mr. Deane, who is familiar with this site, and who, it is understood, did not recommend this location:

out a week's test before getting his money. That does not seem suiflo- ient for the purpose. It. would be advisable in addition to have the town protected by the contractor being required to furnish o. satis- factory penal bond that during s Period oi twelve months or more, samples of this water sent to Ot- tawa. or Montreal would show Q, satisfactory and safe bacterial content, and that during the same period there would be no sign of salt water or other deleterious seepage into the water supply which our taxpayers, with their wives and children will have to
