Canadawas never more prosperous.

The Canadian farms have produced record breaking crops everywhere. There will be plenty to eat and it should cost less money. I

There is abundant production in most of the factories of the country—some have even closed down or shortened hours, ‘be- cause of surplus stocks. There should be no shortage anywhere-—especially since the ' railroads have recently improved their ser- ice.

Prices of many things are lower than the have been, and higher prices are rare, an mostly among things that people don’t reallvneed to buy,

The merchandise has been pleasingly improved in many lines and the FALL AP-

_ PAREL is really delightful in its original-

ity and artistic lines and colorings. All the desired goods are here-— Prices are pleasantly moderate- Everybody is abundantly able to buy

things- It's great to be alive and To be a.P. E. Islander.

“CLOTHES DON'T WAKE THE M \N." But They D0 Help a Lot to Hiile Him!

We've forgotten who made this bright remark—and we don't knowwho is right. But we all know how it looks to see a man, well drcssed— '

It's easier to see how we can hire him

It's harder to feel that we can fire him

To create a good ooinion in other peo- ple and to enlarge one’s own self respect, there are fclv things so effective as well

chosen, well kept clothes and suits are sold from twenty five dollars to forty-five dollars at Patons.

\\'().\IEN’S COATS ‘VERE NEVER MORE FASCINATING.

More than ever bef0re,of recent years women are wearing dresses, to alternate with their suits, for street wear, and for these dress days the “wrappy" coat is in- dispensable. A g

These new coats are so dressy and so youthful ‘in their effect. They offer such a complete change from the suit. And What

v is more pleasing to the well-dressed wom- on than to look one part today and a total- ly different one tomorrow? ,_

See the new coats that have recently arrived and choose yours, while the one you most want is here. College students specially invited.‘

“WIAT A DELIGHTFUL CHANGE IN \\'OMEN‘S BLOUSES, THIS FALL!

First it seems as though the most strik ing change was in fabrics; then it seems the models that are different; then we de- cide that it is the trimmings that have worked the new wonder.

Then we realize that all have done their part-—each has been played upon by the designer's ingenuity, for the contriving of new beauty and greater becomingness for women.

See the new collections, which are now at their best at Patons.

YOU’LL JUST LOVE THESE NEW’ IlAClS!

There is such a gratification, when one lays the new bag on table or chair, when calling on a friend, to have it win an enthusiastic compliment.

Surely new styles were never quite so sure of admiration as these that arnved during the past few days.

ARE YOUR WINDOWS CALLING FOR NE\V LACE CURTAINS.

You'll be pleased to find such charm- ing ne efiects all ready just when. you want to redecorate your home before exhi- bition.

We enjoyed selecting them, and were much delighted when we opened up the cases and saw what fine draperies we have secured- ~

You’ll enjoy the inspection just as much, we're sure, and we should like to have the pleasure of showin you the new patterns as soon as you fin it convenient ' to come iii. f THE VANGUARD OFA UTUMN MILLIN-

WA STEFULNESS.

Lady Burnham, w-ho accompanied her husband, Lord Burnham, on the Imperial Press tour through Canada, was challenged to give a frank criticism of Canada and Canadians. She did it frankly and her criticism is a fair statement of what an intelligent

of Canada, would soy if they had the courage to can- didly express their real opinion. Lady Burnham said:

“You are wasteful in every way; your wastefulnes is wicked; it is cruel. I cannot ‘tell you how it all has distressed me.”

Going into general detail the indictment of ex- travagance included waste of food, waste of lumber, waste in manufacture, waste of land.

To”one who has travelled in or read about the customs in European countries, Lady Burnham’s criticism will be quite a natural one. Our returned soldiers have expressed the same opinion. They saw in France particularly and also in Belgium men liv-

making a good living too. Every inch of land was cultivated, fertilized to the fullest capacity of the soil and producing the most bountiful crops the land was capable of. They saw groves of forest, many of them only a comparatively few acres in extent that furnished fuel to several households for many gen- erations and the grove as large as it was a hundred or more years ago. They saw the smallest bits of deb- ris, wood or metal, the clippings and chippings of- factories, saved and converted into various by-pro- ducts.

We Canadians have not yet lived down the ex- travagant habits of pioneer days when land was to be had for the asking, when we could sow and plant in the most convenient spots in the track of the for- est fires that cleared our lands or on the fertile vir- gin soil of the prairie. We destroyed our forests be- cause they were in our way, we sowed and reaped where it was mostconvenient; we had no need of conservation for we had much more than we could make use of. I‘t is different today. We need every inch of our land, but we let most of it lie waste; we need every tree that grows on our farms but we do not plant a tree to take the place of the one we have out down. As a result we are land poor and our forests are depleted. In our feeding of ourselves and our stock we do the easiest thing and the result is waste.

until our wants become more acute; then we shall liook back with many misgivings upon our wasteful ays.

A NATION AL INSULT.

lluring the war and the preparation for it, largely through the example set by the soldiers in training, who acquired it through army discipline, audiences at theatres and other public gatherings stood in respectful attention during the singing or playing of the National Anthem. This good custom is

a signal to don overcoats and wraps and make f0 the door. It is a vulgar, and ignorant habit and should be sternly checked. The theatre, manage- ment would be doing a good educative act if they in- formed the audience, either on the screen or other- wise, that ladies and gentlemen always stood at at- tention during the rendition of the National Anthem and that others would be expected to do so.

THE 'l‘.»\l{‘ll"l“ QUESTION .

The St, John Telegraph, one of the leading Lib- eral papers in the Maritime Provinces, discussing the tariff question, says :--

“There should be an honest examination of the

ing customs taxation, but for the purpose of giving relief to the consumer wherever that can be done without injury to legitimate Canadian interests. A proper revision of the tariff would be one which would regard equally the needs of all sections of the country, and all classes. No particular class or section can write Canada's tariff schedules without injury to the country at large.” '

This is exactly what the Meighen government is doing. The tariff commission appointed by the gov- ernment began its investigation Tuesday at Winni- peg and the enquiry is to be carried out in every im- portant city in Canada. Whatever revision is decided upon will be on the basis of what this commission dis covers after due enquiry. ‘
