.A Manmua axniarr

A gratifying announcement has been made by Mr. R. W. Burnaby, Maritime Trade Commissioner in Toronto, that the three ltfariiime Provinces will join in making an effec. five exhibit at the Canadian National Elhibition at Toronto this year. It will be recalled that last year Premier Baxter, when the President of the Toronto Board of Trade suggested a Maritime pavilion in the fair grounds, declared that if the Governments of Nova ficoiia and Prince Edward Is- land would join, his own province would do its part in providing such a nructure. The three Governments havng now agreed upon the matter. tho 7119s are being worked out. While detlii of the exhibit are not yet complete, it is understood that each province will have the opportunity of exhibitng some specal features and the three together will make up an exhibit that will be of great advertis- ing value.

As Mr. Burnaby points out, the Iucoess of the enterprise depends up- on the full and hearty co-operation of producersbs well as of the thee Governments. The widest advance publicity should be given to the event, so that all our producers will be acquainted with the importance bf having a. representative showing of the agricultural productions of this Province. Attention must also be paid in the selection of the proper officials to accompany the exhibit and to see that the products of this Province aie properly featured.

In view of the increasing market- ing opportunities in Central Canada. the exhibit will beof great importance to our producers. Not only the qual- ity of the products exhibited, but the manner of their preparation for the market and the distribution of at- tractive literature featuring these products and the general attractions of the Province should be considered. The decision of the Provincial Gov- ernment to join our sister Maritime

v ’ Provinces in this promising adventure

is l step in the right direction, but this step should be followed up by in- suring the very best exhibit of Is- land products, and by seeing that these products are featured to the greatest advantage. In the matter of industrial exhibits we will naturally bc overshadowed by Nova Scotia. and New Brunswick, and the emphasis must necessarily be placed 0n the suP- erior quality of our dairy and agri- cultural products. Whatever the financial arrange- ments in connection with thh exhibit may be, it is important that Prince Edward Island's appropriation be not cutdown to a point which would in- terfere with the opportunity of dis- playing our exhibits to the bes: pos- sible advantage. If the position of our products It the exhibition will depend upon the full payment of our propor- tionate share of the cost, this propor- flbh lhould be paid ungrudgingly.

have no more than 100 children each, and of these 3,300 have less than 40. Over 1,000 are one-teacher schools."

Approaching the question of why the movement towards centraliza- tion, whch offers so much, has made such a little progress, Mr, King 8W8! various reasons, same “f which are o1 general significance. He nye:

"The "inertia of committees and officials may account in part, bu?» the major cause is parochial and denominational opposition, A vil- lage may do little to help its own school, but it has a. sentimental ob- ‘ jection to losing it. Parents wish l their children to dine at home. 8nd- pcrhaps, find school meals B. little more expensive. There is a pre- judice-probably s. dying prejudico -agaixist their travelling by motor-

bus. ,

“Objections such as these will not survive experience of a. better sys- tem. and are vanishing already where it exists. Children who have tasted the brighter side of a cen- tral school have no wish, to return to the dull monotony of their vil- lage school: the parents will follow the children's lead.”

SAFETY ON THE FARM

with the present flare for safety on highway and in factory. says an

American agricultural exchange, it is a little suprlslng that no more ut-

tentloh is being given to safety on the farm.

About this time of the year it i! not unusual to read of farm boys and men being caught in the wheels of tractors or under the sharp edges of farming implements and being killed or injured.

In spite of the general attention that is being paid to safety devices. manufacturers seem to be giving less and less attention to guards and protective devices 0n machinery de- signed for use on the farm.

Few tractors are manufactured that provide adequate protection for the operator. The result is that farm accidents apparently are increasing. A sudden jolt against a stump or stone, and the pparktor is thrown under the sharp edges of disc or plow or harrow to be mangled and maim- ed.

It seems to be a little problem that needs the attention of the saf- ety councils. Just as the toll of hands and arms taken by the corn shredder was reduced by safety de- vices, so accidents from use of trac- tors may be reduced.

A POET ON HIS ART

Dr. Robert, Bridges, the Poet-Laur- eate, whose literary work is o! that quality which will outlast the bulkier volumes of many of his c-uiempo aries and will pass into the cultural achievement of the race, thus defin- es the object of his art:

"Poetry is the power of concen- trating all the far-reaching re- sources of language at one point so that a single and apparently cflort- less expression rejoices the occ- thetic imagination at the moment when it, is most expectant and ox- acting, and at the some time u- tonishes the intellect by a new u- pect of the truth."

lgloies ByThe Way

Twenty-nu yam In Cecil Rhodes founded his famous scholarships in order to realise, if possible, hi; dream for an educational tie that would promote understanding between the 19161118 nations of the world. He was the fourth son of Bishop Btortford, Hertfordshiro, England and was born on the 5th of July, 1853. He was sent for his health to Natal, where his brother was a planter. Later he went to Kimberley, and there in the diam- ond mines he accumulated a. for- tune.

Rhodes died at Cape Town, South Africa, March 2B, 1902, when he was not yet 50 years old. In his will he bequeathed about ten million dollars to provide for the scholarships above referred to. Tenablg at Oxford, Eng- land. The income for each scholar- ship is $1,500, and two were offered for each British Colony and two for each state in the American Union. During the quarter century since the scholarships have been available there have been elected 1,519 Rhodes Scholars, 764 from the United States. 698 from the British lands oversea and 57 from Germany. These last were suspended during the war, but were paid till 1914.

lnaislent demands are being made upon the Ottawa Government for a withdrawal of clearances granted to rum-laden vessels from Canadian to United States ports. As has been al- ready notnd in The Guardian, there has been a demand, which was strongly supported by leading Liber- al newspapers. Hon. Mr. Euler, Min- ister of National Revenue, throws the entire responsibility upon the Dominion ‘Parliament.

The Toronto Globe in its issue of July 18 returns to the discussion un- der the editorial headline, “Must the Voters Decide?" This article raises the presumption that probably the great majority of American readers are quite unaware of the fact that this traffic is largely, if not wholly in the hands of Americans, and that if they would jail a. certain number of their own citizens it would be greatly curtailed for the time being. One thing the American people do know is that much of the liquor comes from Canada and that it is shipped for export with a. ceremony that appears to give it the official blessing of this country.

“Since it is the business of Parlia- ment, to act, in this matter then 1t is the business of the people. Must one of the issues in the forthcoming campaign be the cancellation of these clearances?" asks the Globe. And it goes on to say, “It would appear so, if the members of the Canadian Parliament are so short-sighted as to make a. national issue of the routine work of an excise official-and pos- sibly an international issue. And it is to be feared that if the voters are to be called upon to settle a. matter of this sort they will not go to the polls with a high opinion of the Government already chosen to gov- em."

1t is good new: that rain has come all over the Prairie Provlncel. al- though it is too late to wholly save the wheat crop. It will no doubt. ben- efit the later wheat and other field crops and do much good in other ways, as to pasturage, etc. It cannot save the thousands of acres that have been plowed under.

It reads strangely down here in the Far East, that there is considerable unemployment in the three Provinc- es between the Great Lakes and the Rocky Mountains. Those now idle, we are told. are "waiting for the har- vest and the threshing and shipping" seasons yet to come.

The chief Liberal organ in Nova Bcotin appears not to be 11111" 5° phcrisaicaily dry us its chief Lib- eral contemporary in this Province. but appearances are often deceptive. And the plebiscite in Nova Scotia. is not due until October. Many things may happen during the next two or three months. And the unexpected happens almost as frequently l! W“ which i: confidently predicted.

Our Jsvoml Jrévinco is blessed with glorious weather, frequent rc- frllhing showers, field crow 810W- ing and tourist visitors are loud in their praises of the beauty of the Gordon of the Gulf, I'll of which is very satisfactory tn Guard-inn rndm. '

By lame; If. Burlon, LLD. ,_,__ ANGINA PECTOBXS

You are reading quite often about angina. pectoris. that ctr-angling op. pressive pain in the chest over the heart which unfortunately jg becom- ing more common than in former years.

The paints very severe, of a suf- focating natura that causes the put- ient to stop in his tracks. unable to

when attack comes on he make; no attempt to sit or lie down. If sitting down he remains in this position with every muscle tensed 1n a. sort of ef- fort to ward off the pain, '

The skin “appears grey 1n color. covered with cold sweat, and the whole picture is one of unspeakable agony."

Whilethe Pain is most severe, it is the terror, the feelin, of impending death that is the outstanding char- acteristic of the attack.

‘This fear seems to be a. symptom in very many cases irrespective of how brave of hearifthe individual knows himself to be.

There is a “sense" of impending disaster, of breathlessness, apprehen- sion, melancholy and such emotional agony that the suffering is nearly as Erect as from the pain itself."

Notwthstnnding the fact that these

patients have numerous attacks from which they have always recovered they are nevertheless always terror. iced by them. _ Unfortunately physicians are un- able to diagnose this condition by an examination of the heart itself as it does not give any characteristic sounds or murmurs, and the blood pressure may be normal or just slightly above normal.

0f course if the physician sees the patient during an attack, the dlag- nosis 1s simple.

I havcqseen cases where the pgfi- ients were able to’ swim or walk con- siderable distances without inducing an attack, but walking at aslightly faster pace, going llpstalrg, m- umng an object. would almost always bring on an attack. '

The most frequent cause is emo. tlonal “stresses and excesses. Anger, grief, even pleasurable emotion ex. periences. are the most frequent; ex. citors of attacks."

Overeating is another cause,

Treatment during "an attack is heat to the heart, one or two nitro. glyccrine tablets 11100 grain which most patients carry in their pockem, 0110411811111 grain tablets of morphia is also good treatment,

It takes the express train from Puis two hours to make the run to the city o1 Arras. Two hours is not very lone 1n passing. When we got of! It Arru and looked out of the station-o new station “nd looked at the town, whose streets radiate from the station plaza. like the spokes of a. great wheel-we saw the town was a. new town too. We strolled about-between heavy rain gusts out of a fickle June sky—-and took a look at the buildings. Good streets“ clean dwellings, couriways, walls tav-

erns. cobblestones, pavements-all‘ fresh, agreeable, pleasant to see. we

were looking for the Rue d: Fold-j herbe and couldn't find it, so we ent- l ered o. tavern placardcd with they sign "English spoken," and inquired; our way. '

The waiter called over a slim, brown-faced youngish man who was taking shelter in the doorway; a youngish man who wasn't so_ young, but wearing on a bit; and he told u: in real English-he came from the town of Cambridge-where to find our street: he stepped into the rain with us and walked over a bit of the way.

He had been in Arras. or the Ari-as area, during the War, and was now working in Arras as a taxi-driver, and he explained that. all the part of the town there before us was re- built on the site of the old town which had been blown away by the bombardmenis. The station had been destroyed: "that's a new one,” he said, "and a better one: the old one didn't have those concrete bridges."

So only two hours’ train ride from Paris, cities have been blown down or whole sections of them obliterated by shell-fire. It made Paris seem awfully close to the battle-front. We knew, of course, that the German line had pushed much nearer to Pur- is that that even, but standing in the streets of Arras, and looking at those rebuilt houses, when only a couple of hours before we had been in the busy uproarof Paris, gave the thing a substance and a menace we had not previously been conscious of. The Germans, however, had not held Arras; they had destroyed 1t by artillery fire, and they had com- manded it, and all thehadjacent ter- ritory, from ‘a strong defensive po- sltion known as Vimy Ridge," some eight or nine miles north-east of the the town. It was Vimy Ridge, not Arras particularly, that we had come down to see. ‘

Vimy Ridge is one of the great Canadian battle-fields. On the 9th of April, 1917, beginning at half-past ilve in the morning, all four of the Canadian divisions, with some bri- gades of the British Army, made a full-dress attack along the whole line of tho German positions, and after heavy fighting drove out the Ger- mans,‘ and took possession of the Ridge. It was one of the greatest combats of the war; it was Canada's battle: and it is on the summit of Vlmy Ridge that Canada's memorial to her war dead is being built; on the edge of the Ridge, where it reaches out in two great curving arms to the plains below, Canada's memorial will stand, with its back to-France and the ocean, and its front to Germany.

Captain Simson, who is In charge of the construction of the memorial drove us out from Arras to see how it was progressing. The sky was full of towering livid clouds, sweeping down at inetrvals in showers and then faring off for brilliant intervals of sunshine: the east heavy with storm as the ca: ran up to the high ground on which the memorial
