For gome time past the Provincial Department of Education has been in correspondence with Dr. G. H. Locke, chairman for Canada of the Library Commission of the Carnegie Corporation, who has shown a keen 1V‘ interest in the progress made in the plans for the new Prince of Wales College. Last week Dr. Locke arrived in Charlottetown and after looking the situation over and con- suiting with Hon_ Dr. MacMillan and the educational authorities, an- nounced that he would recommend o, Carnegie grant for library pur- puee for both the Prince of Wales College and St. Dunstans Univer- lity. The grant to Prince oi Wales will be sufficient, he states, to pro- vide fcr the purchase, within the next three years, of about 5,000 vol- umes. In both cases the grants will serve a most useful purpose, and will be of very great assistance to our educational institutions in car- rying on their activities.

It is to be hoped that Dr. Locke's first visit to Prince Edward Island will not be his last, and that he will find time from his official duties to spend an occasional holiday here. Apart from the generous recom- mendations which he is making in l the interests of our educational in-

stitutions, he will be assured, from those who had the pleasure of meeting him on this occasion, oi a very cordial welcome on his own behalf.

On the occasion of his visit to Charlottetown recently the Hon. Murray MacLarcn, Minister of Pen- sions. laid special emphasis on the benefits which he believed would ac- crue from the organization of a Farm Marketing Board. This Board.

Each year the Northern Miner issues an annual special edition dealing trenchantly with every

phase of the gold mining industry‘ in Canada. This year's edition has Just been issued, and is deserving of special attention at this time. The past few years, which have been marked by world wide depression in other industries, have seen remark-

Canada. In 1930 Canada assumed; second place among the gold pro-

year she increased the pace . some 27 per cent and . production valued at $55,395,000.

NOVEL SUGGESTION

A novel suggestion has been made by an Ontario farmer to relieve the unemployment situation in the industrial centres of that province. He says that farmers are in want oi labor but at present prices are not in a posit'on Ito employ the help that they want. He suggests that as urban councils and city ‘councils are paying unemployment relief to men it might be a bene- ficiai plan all round for them to subsidize the farmers by paying them 25c a day for every unemploy- ed man from the cities they en- gage. l-is contention is that a cost 'of 25c a day per man would be true ‘economy to the cities and towns in tprovlding relief to the jobless: at ‘the same time the scheme would ibe providing a measure of assis- ltance t; farmers needing help but

.who, owing to present low prices,

lvcannot afford to hire men at the regular rates. At present in Char- lottetown there is an influx of ccuntry labor, showing that farm- :crs are not in a position to main- tain full employment of their regu-

lar help.

NEXT T? Y-Eiacrlolvs

Two more ederal by-efections will in all probability be held be- fore the next session of Parliament, both in. constituencies which afford more even fighting ground than Royal Maisonneuve. Huron South, recently vacated by the death of the late Liberal member, Thomas McMillan, has nearly al- ways been represented by a Liberal but as a rule the majorities have teen small. In 1930. the late Mr. McMillan carried it by 349. His majority in 1926 was 1,153, and in 1925, 253. In 192i it returned a Progressive and in 1917 a Conserve-l tive-Unlonist.

The other vacancy is in Yamaska, Quebec. where the Liberal member- elect, Mr. Boucher, has recently been unseated by the election court. H's election in 1930 was followed by a recount, which resulted in his return by one vote. l-lls previous majorities had been i665 in 192i, 6B4 in 1925- and 418 in i926.

W. BarIanJLD \ HELPING T0 HEAL THE MIND

s. _By lame:

That Nature will heal or cure must be admitted-the abscess will empty itself; the cold in the head will disappear; the attack of indig- estion or diarrhoea will pass over; the broken bone will mend.

But does this mean that Nature should not be helped or guided?

Heat applied to the absoes, the removal of the wastes from the in- testine and rest in bed for the cold, the use oi castor oil in diarrhoea; the placing together of the broken ends ol the bone and the applic- ation oi a splint. are the simple but effective ways that are used to help Nature. Without these human aids you can readily understand how the abscess might go on to a general poisoning of the system; the cold to bronchitis, pneumonia, pleurisy or tuberculosis; the dia- rrhoea to a serious thinning of the blood; and the broken bone to an actual crippling of the indiviosal.

In fact it must be admitted that even the simple ailments first men-

death of the individual were it not for the human interference.

However there is something more than physical ailments ln this life of ours. There are the ailments of the mind, ailments which make many individuals unable to go out amongst their fellow human beings and take their natural or rightful place.

This isn't due to any lack of brains; many of these so afflicted would rank one hundred or even more than one hundred per cent in

one of the most profitable tourist seasons it has ever had. However, in the past some of our compatriots have somewhat abused the oppor-l

Sir Stephen Tallents, the Secre- tary of the Empire Marketingl Board, reminded the Royal Empire, Society that goodwill was one of the most va'uable exports in the world. The events of the last few months have awakened in the, mind of the British public a strong: suspicion that. Free state exports of

British shoppers will not purchase the wares of a country which they regard as hostile so long as other markets are open to them. Already there are signs that the policy of the present Free State Government has begun to alienate British sym- pathies. A relationship of confidence and friendliness has been built up between the two countries as the result or ten years‘ endeavor. If it is to be broken down in ha‘f as many months, then not all the lab- or of the Free State producer will recompense him for the vanished export of goodwill.

Democracy And Government

(Ottawa. Journal)

The world has chanced a 10i- i" its thinking since Woodrow Wilson spoke his famous phrase 5mm‘; making the world “safe for demo- cracy." The tendency, now, indeed. is toward making democracy safe for the world; and last week we had Senator Mcighen bewailing the fact that democracy has a propensity for too much interference with govern- ments. Mr. Meighens thesis was that the functions of democracy, so far as government was concerned, ceased when it had selected its rep- resentatives to govern it; that it should then step aside and let the Government govern. Violations of this principle, he added, found in too much interference with govern- ment.s.and their policies, were a threat to efficiency. g

Within certain limitations, Mr. Meighen ls right_ The past twenty years have produced a new kind of , world never before known; a world ‘into which the political machinery and the democratic theories of a century or a half century ago simp- ly do not fit. In this new and com- plicated world, problems of govern- ment include, whether we will it or not, technical problems, problems of trade and finance and credit and
