THE PIONEER SPIRIT

The pioneer spirit oi seventy-five lo a hundred nnd fifty years ago has undergone n great change, if indeed it has not. been entirely extinguish- Aed in this commercialized. modem ’ nge. When our British forefathers left their homes and braved the dan- gers and discomforts of a. three- months’ ocean voyage in sailin! W5- selo to reach the new World, they c"- i-ied with them no return tickets, no guaranteed return passage money. They took their lives in their hands and determined to make a new start in a. new world of which they knew little except that it was largely wild- erness and afforded an opportunity for strong hands and stout hearts to make a living.

It has grown steadily since. The Army flag is now born in 83 coun- tries; its officers preach in 9’! inn- guages; there are 15.51’! corps offic- ers, cadets and whole-time employ- ees. while there are 105,034 local cf- ficers and 43,000 bandslnen.

The Army conducts 340 shelters and hostels for working people, in which the aggregate accommodation nightly is 35,443 persons. These have supplied 20,268,752 meals, and 10,012,640 beds. The Army has 210 industrial homes, elevators, work- shops and woodyards, where over 454,600 men were found work. tem- porarily or permanently. ‘Through its labor bureaux 284,800 men have obtained situations. Home 7,302 wo- men and girls were recetv i tn its 112 industrial homes, and of these 6,931 returned to their friends or places were found for thém. Over 16.100 women were cared for in the Army's 70 maternity homes, and 2,- 534 ell-criminals were received into the Army prison gates homes.

The Migration and Settlement Department, of which Commissioner Lamb is director, has settled about 38.000 people in the domlnions since 1920. During the 25 years of its existence the department has trans- planted some 200,000 migrants, of whom less than 1 percent have not succeeded. They train boys in agri- culture. and since the inception of General Booths schema in 1923 more Ithnn 4,000 from firimin have been happily settled overseas.

There are an assurance society with £4,063,600 and a bank. There are also the Salvation Army Fire 1n- surance Corporation and the Reil- ance Benefit Society.

In this Island the farms of today are the worksuof their 1 hands. They were carved out of the forest primeval by unremitting toil and courage. Looking back we can see little comfort in those far- off days, can see little but hard work and little to look forward to but a slow continuance of the prosperity _ which they had dreamed of. Compar- ing this with the immigration schemes of today. there is much food for thought. Migrants today have little faith in the country they are going to, or perhaps little faith in themselves. Before leaving they want a guarantee of a return pas- sage in case things didn't suit them when they arrived. This is not the pioneering spirit which has built up the outlying members of the British Empire; not the spirit which hewed Gown the forests end converted wild- ernessee into fertile farms; not the spirit which united the east and the west of Canada with bands of steel over mountains regarded as impos- eable. ' »

We need more of the pioneer spir- it in all our undertakings; the spirit of faith in our country and of hope for its future; and this spirit is nut confined to searching out new lends; 1t ie needed in carrying out new pol- tcleo, new methods‘, new social con- ditions, new» educational privliegee, where the old have become stag- v dent and have ceased to go forward.

Notes By! he Wag

When trade iii-tum policies mo:

J‘ in the fi- they provoke only academic discussion, in which it is difficultufor the ordinary man to

‘ distinguish between the fallacy and .

the truth. When the question re- solves itself into dollars ind cents. and reaches down into the pockets of the people, then they sit up and take notice. The verbiage of the politician which hitherto camou- flaged the issue is then seen for what it is worth, and the facts stand out baldly" in the ntimentai light of common‘ sense. This has _weli illustrated in the case of the impor- tation into this country of New Zcaiand butter.

The tariff linkers have had their way, and the protests of the uatiiinai Dairy Council have gone unneeded. But now money talks. Foreign but.- ter is today underselling the home product in the Charlottetown mar- ket, and the chances are that it will seriously injure our dairy business. Must our farmers fight this danger alone, or will they have the help of the Federal representatives whom they elected to safeguard their ‘in- terests? When the treaty was be- ing discussed in Parliament our Lib? eral representatives either sat dumb or "held the clothes" of the treaty- makers. The time has now come for action. and “he that isnot for us is against us." Let our parlia- mentarians speak out! !

A stage whisper comes from on an- onymous correspondent in the local Liberal organ, warning us that a meeting held in the city on Friday night tn discuss the New Zealand butter importation was presided over by a prominent Conservative, and met in the oillce of another sup- porter of the same party. Fancy that! The meeting was an executive meeting of the Retail Merchants As- sociation; it was presided over by the President of the Association and. was held, as is customary, in the ofllce of the Secretary, having been called, we understand, at the suggestion of the Vice President, who happens to be a, Liberal. "Without discussing in any way the merits or demerits of the case", it would be interesting to know whom "Onlooker" represents, and what particular irons he has in the fire. ,Our farmers and business men are too deeply concerned in the matter at issue to accept gratuitous advice from “onlookers"; and they are too old in the horn to be fooled by the wolf when he imitates the watch-dog's bark.

Now that the editor of the Patriot has been up in an aeroplane, we shall expect some pungent articles on the panoramic view and the respect- ive advantages, seen from aloft, of Borden and Georgetown as ports of call for whatever steamship service is provided during the tie.-up of the car ferry. The spectacle of frozen rivers and ice-bound Straits on one side, and a navigable eastern route and open harbor on the other, must have been a. convincing one. Had the visibility been good, it might have been possible to descry, afar ofl‘, the smoke of the belated Stanley, but- zing through the Gut of Canso, and to calculate approximately the time which will yet elapse before that steamer reaches Tormentlne. In any event, it is exhilarating to get up in the air, "above the smoke and stir of this, dim spot, which men call Earth," and see things for a while in wider perspective. ‘We congratulate the editor upon his successful initial flight, and trust that the experience will supply a. wealth of material for his vigorous pen.

The omission of tlic Royal mono- gram “G. R." from Canadian postal wagons and trucks on, the ground that the letters are confusing, has given rise to criticism in various sections of the country. The Phrflfie “His (or Her) Majesty's Mail" has had a. place on the Statutes of Can- ada ever since Confederation. “It is curious," remarks the London Free Press, “that after all this time, and during the regime of the Rt. Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King-and the Hon. Peter J. Veniot, it should be discovered that the phrase is con- fusing. It also is a '"""'\lis fact that the revelation should .- made at a time when‘ seporaticnists are active in efforts to sever the links of Em- pire."

By [qmce W. Barlon. LOSS OF APPE IITE

One of the serious conditions in childhood is when the y ungs los- es its appetite.

You can undrstand that growth

and health are absolutely dependent upon food, and i! focd is not taken serious consequences must arise. a study of los of appetite in nearly 1500 children between the ages of 1 and 14 years. a research man‘ has divided his cases into two groups.

Organic loss of appetite in which a definite cause ,for the condition could be determined; functional loss of appetite in which eon organic cause that could possibly explain the condition could not be found.

The commonest conditions that were found in these youngsters with- out appetites were infected tonsils and" ---' noids, acute infectious ail- ments suck as scarlet fever, measles, and so forth. tuberculosis, infected teeth, and inflammation of kidneys.

Now any young growing animal wants and needs food and is not happy till it gets it, and any young- ster, boy or girl, who doesn't want food is not normal; there is some- thing wrong.

In the treatment of loss of appet- ite, broiled beefsteak, iamb's kidney and fresh caif's liver wereadded to the diet of the child with most grat- ifying results.

In a previous article I mentioned the work of a research man who demonstrated that in additi to bo- inga wonderful blood builder,‘ liver had something within it, some pro- perty, that created and stimulated appethe.

Hence the the diet.

The vitamin B as found ixrwhole wheat bread, lettuce, and yeast cakes, helps to increase appetite,

The thought then is that; as 3]] normal youngsters desire food, some- thing is wrong when they don't, and instead of coaxing, whipping, or ihfefltehillil. an examination should be made by the family physician. Oi’ course any youngster may go off his food for a day or two, but any prolonged lack of desire for food on the DB1‘?- Of the; Oungster should be treated as a serous matter, and the cause located.

A "run down" condition from lack of food renders the youngster an- easy prey to illness. -
