Early diagnosis of tuberculosis saves not only lives, but the taxpayers’ money. Three- quarters of a million Canadians were X-rayed for tuberculosis last year. Canadians are dying ' of tuberciilosis at ,the rate of sixteen persons a day. This is sheer criminal waste, for tuber- culosis is s disease which can be conquered.

Adult Education

A pamphlet just issued by the Official In-i formation Services of the United Kingdom (Sovcrnmcuit, released by the Canadian agency in Uttawa, gives an interesting historical re-

of five people who might have vot- ed stayed at home. They _“let George do it." -Vsncouver :"O-

to the the Athal

view of the adult education movement since the first “adult school" was established by the Society of Friends in I798. Out of that early experiment has grown the National Adult School Union, which consists today of over a thousand affiliated institutions. The foundation of the Working Men's College in London in 1854 is called the “first really important land- mark.” This famous college, xvhich is non- residential ziucl financially self-supporting,‘ pro- moted the idea of co-operation between the spzirc-tiizic student and the universities, and developed into the University Extension Move- mcut which is performing such a useful func- tion not only in the Old Country but here in Cnunrla at the present day. The great univers- ities of Oxford and Cambridge early adopted the plan and others followed the lead. Another organization which is given high praise in the pamphlet is the Workers’ Educational As- socintion, svhidi was founded in i903 "to ex- press and interpret working-class needs."

I11 its report on educational policies, the Government said the “effectiveness of earlier education” deppnded upon the extent to which, in some form or other, “it is continued volun- tarily in later life." If the student, 0n leaving high school or the university, does not make some effort to build up 0n the foundations which have been laid, but instead "gradually forgets what has already been learned. then, indeed, the long and expensive years of in- struction lmvc been Ia gcly wasted. Adult edu- cation 1's dcsltrncd to prevent such waste and to give incrcasiug value to the preliminary work of the regular schools.

from the age of seven, where he spent seven years and formed a lasting friendship with the poet Coleridge; an impediment in his speech prevented him following his intention of enter- ing the Church, and he entered instead East India House as a clerk, where he rose to enjoy a large salary, and ultimately retired on a hand- some pension; his office hours were ten to four leaving him ample time for literary work; as an author his name will principally be recollect- ed by his celebrated Essays of Elia which en- title him to contest the palm with Addison and Steele. - e s a a

Messrs. St. Laurent and Ilsley, in the Bill 15 debate, certhinly laid down new standards of constitutional Government in Canada, remarks an Ottawa critic. Challenged to give reasons w-hy the citizen should n0: be permitted to take his grievances against the Government to court, Mr. St. Laurent took the position that this would be inconvenient for the Government. Queried as to detailed examples of this in- convenience, he said he would have to consult his colleagues, but Mr. Ilsley disposed of that very quickly. He intervened to point out that he did not wish to prolong the debate by giving his reasons for wanting his officials to exercise their powers, without interference by the courts. This is democracy,‘ as*it ‘is practised in Russia.

Ottawa rumours are very definite that the Prime Minister is not feeling very Socialism: at the moment, says The Letter-Review. What- ever his faults, he has shown a great willing. ness to follow changes in public opinion. His close view of the difficulties of a Socialist Gov- ernment in action in London; the overwhelm- ing evidence that the U. S. is moving altogether in the other direction; the unfavourable reac- tion in Canada to Mr. Ilsley’s constitutional the- ory, which is aneeessary part of the Socialist

Stamps constantly passed through Holboellfir hands. and to 111111 came this thought. Why not ailil one more pcnuy stamp to the thousands of Christmas letters, a levy on healthy senders. to help alleviate T. B. buffering?

The enthusiasm of his fellow worker's caused him to present his plan to the King and Queen of Drumark, who paved the way for the first sale’ of tuberculosis -Christmas seals in December I904, T-he proceeds established two hospitals for tubercular children.

Elinar Holboells idea tookuoot. In 1907, a woman from the U. S. A. attracted by the Danish Christmas seals appearing on mail took its...» plan to the United States.

state, and many other items of evidence ‘have convinced him that there is only a limited num- ber of votes to be won by appeals to Socialism, and that Mr Coldwell has those pretty well corralled. In contrast to some of his advisers, the Prime Minister is said to believe that there is more danger of Mr. Bracken defeating‘ the Go nment, by appeals against Socialism, than there is of Mr. Coldwell winning on the other platform. In short, the Prime Minister is mov- i112 away from the Left at the 1110mm, and does not welcome suggestions for Government policies which look a: all Spcialistic. -

Says V.L¢ Jour: "An intelligent immigration policy would help fol support the economic position of Can- ada, Mr. Duncan said.
