The tragic death of Hon. J. H. Bell, at one time Premier of this Province. has struck a sympathetic chordinthsheartsoftiremanywhv know him. No doubt had Mr.» Bell been allowed a choice as to his man- ner of going. he would have prefer- red to meet the arch enemy, as he did. in the great out-of-doors which he loved and in which he delighted

‘moo/spend his leisure hours. Death came to him suddenly, for he did not regain consciousness after his acui- dent on Saturday, although‘ the strong constitution and vigorous frame clung to the spirit until Tues- day niobi-

The iate Mr. Bell was not a great man, but he was human and pos- sessed the kindly heart and the friendly disposition which endear man to man. He never permitted political differences to obtrude upon personal relationships. To political friends and opponents alike he was kind, congenial and companionable, and those who knew him best loved him most. As a politician he will be remembered as a successful leader within the limitations of his party. As a man his memory will be fondly cherished He lived to s. ripe old age, blessed with sound health of body and mind, enjoying day by day the passing show of life, and deriv- ing therefrom all the satisfaction that comes to a keen observer. The knowledge that life is but a fltful ' dream and that in passing out of it one does not slip out of the order of nature but finds a surer resting place and a peace which the world can neither give nor take away, must often have come to him in his latter years.

“Men must endure their going

hence,

Even as their coming hither;

Ripeness is all."

Another voice has been added to the many that have declared against the importation of Australian and u... Zealand butter. As stated in our despatches yesterday, the presi- dent of the Saskatchewan (Jo-opera- tive Creameries, speaking at a din- ner tendered him by the Toronto Board of Trade club, declared that Canada had dropped from the posi- tion of an exporter of 25,000,007 pounds of butter annually to that o.’ ‘an importer of an almost equal amount. This he attributed, among other causes, to the trade treaty with Australia and New Zealcnd negotiat-

' ed for the purpose’ of helping the pulp mid paper industry. While Canada has progressed greatly in aisny other industries since the trea- t1 was negotiated, the dairying indus- tryand its subsidiary bodies had suf- fered. That he was speaking to a sympathetic audience goes without

. flying. Be expressed the general opinion that Canada's greatest in- dusky, agriculture, is being serious-

‘ 1y msnaced by the unfair competition forced upon her by this same treaty.

If the demand of our farmers for fair treatment in their home ml!‘- ket is inconsistent with the D0110! of the Mackenzie K1118 501731111195‘- as has been argued, then so much the worse for the policy: and so much more the ecessity for having the question threshed out in the open. It will not satisfy our people to dismiss it with elm-ring refer- ences w “buttery propaganda.” or to oppose the movement through anony- mous correspondents. The people now have the facts before them So, also have the press and the politic- ians. Nothing can be gained by any belated effort to camouflage the issue for political purposes. If the policy of the King Government in this instance a the beet for this country. then let the defenders of that policy stand by it openly, as those who oppose it are doing. The issue is now Joined.

THE ENEMY WRITES A BOOK.

The ear-Kaiser of Germany is pub- lishing a book written to commem- orate the author's personslhaccom- piishment of what the Bible consid- ers lifc‘s. normal span—- three score years and ten—which was rounded out last Sunday. The work shows conclusively that _while the exiled emperor may now have abandoned the role of "All Highest," yet the old motto “Mienself and Gott," still hangs on the wall.

Wilhehn describes the Hohenml- lerns who preceded him and admits that some of them were of doubtful quality. Yet it is apparent that he still regards them, one and all, as "bailiffs of the Almighty on this earth." And herein lies the in- terest of the book. The history of Prussia and of its military autocrats has frequently been written. None have dcne the task better than ‘our own Carlyle. whose monumental His- tory of Frederick the Greet remains a classic even in Germany. But no one has yet depicted the viewpoint ofthe man who loomed so large in the public eye during the Great War; who. as the direct descendant of a long line of Hohenwiiem war lords, believed himself to he the chosen instrument of Providence for the expansion and propagation of Prussian ideals throughout the earth, and who, from the summit of power. fell into an eclipse which was com- plete and final. How such a man views history, how he will misread the lessons of history and see ev- erything distorted and discoloredae though, to quote a phrase of Car- lyle's, he were looking "through the horngate of dreams," is surely a matter of profound psychological and philosophical interest. There will probably be a big demand for the book, the motif of which is found in the concluding paregrap , in

which the former ruler, who wa's first to flee when the death knell of empire sounded, now presents to his former subjects a new creed for the future: "Fearless and loyall May this slogan always be before the eyes of our house end our people. it be engraved upon their hearts. hr without those two qualifications the German people will succumb."

Had Wilhelm but been content to philosophies. what a greet man be might have been!

tradition, which is Canada's herit- age, should not lightly be castaside. There were many things which Can- ada could learn from the United

Europeans have often asked why communities so competent, in their business affairs. should tolerate in- efficiency, waste, lawlessness, on so pronounced a scale as were tolerated intbecitiesofthsUhitedStatcs. Our Harvard authority does not tell us, though he instances various rea- sons that bave been suggested; among them. and chiefly. the presence of great alien elements. That, unfor- tunately, was an explanation which did not satisfactorily explain, as was shown by the fact that the most thoroughly American of the great cities in the United Stains, namely, Philadeipbliuhad been consistently the worst-governed. Some large Ameri cities had spasms of re- form. ,, remarked. InBoston there was perhaps one year's good govern- ment out of ten: in New York per- haps one out of 20. Most American cities bad their lucid intorvsls of decent government: but Philadelphia, for two generations, had not even had a lucid interval.

President-elect Hoover announces that he will as soon as inaugurated appoint a sort of “royal commission" to examine and report upon the Vol- stead Act and its administration, and to ascertain if the present unsatis- factory conditions he due in part to the law itself. The commission is to be impartial to the extent of reflect- ing ever! shade of public opinion. It is estimated that the investigation W111 cost a quarter of a million dol- lars. A voluminous report with many volumes of printed testimony will sooner or later be available to the public. This may shelve the question forthetimebeing, but mean. while the prohibition enforcement bureau must go on functioning. And the immediate problem would seem tobetoflnda waytomaksits functioning more eilicient.

UP to a few weeks ago, gayg 9-11 91111181189. it‘ was genes-ally believed that the prohibition en. forcement bureau in the United Bil-ice had been unable to enforce u" l" "M1189 °°B8ress persistently mused to lPPWDriato more than one-tenth of tho money requjy-eq by the bureau for its work. Why mp. tress had done this when the drys had an enormous majority in both houses no one ventured to ask and no one undertook to explain. They Blmllly‘ knew that‘ the head of the bureau stated that he should have 300 million dollars a year, and that °°118rcse was giving him consider. ably less than l0 per cent of that amount. Hence, at this session, mo senate first Pissed en amendment to the appropriation, increasing the up. propriation for prohibition enforce- mmt b! 250 million dollars, and then receded from its amendment when the house refused to 001mm, Subsequently the senate committee 011 Bppfohriaticns reported favorably another amendment increasing the appropriation by 350 million dollars,

Then came a surprise. The dirco. tor of the prohibiiton bureau, in- stead of turning handsprinu in all directions to show his delight, re- portcdto the secretary of the treas- ury, and the secretary of the treas- ury reported to the senate, that this additional appropriation was not needed. and that the director had not the slightest ides what he could do with it were the money to be voted. When last heard from. the senate was insisting that the direc- tor must accept at least one mil- lion dollars for general purposes, and an additional 250 thousand dol- lars to be expended on radio talks, newspaper articlel. bill-board ad- vertisements and other bfllilllnda in favor of law observance.

.One of the embarrassing things that come to the physician is where s patient is suffering with rheuma- tism or arthritis. and after having the infeotod teeth removed, continues w‘ suffer with the rheumatism just as severely as ever.

Perhap- i-he Phflicisn. with the enthusiasm that na comes from curing twenty or thirty similar cases, has promised the patient that ughopss the teeth extracted be will have him free of the trouble almost at once.

As a matter of fact, when tooth are infected. although the poison is b01118 drained into the system by the circulation. nevertheless ‘ Nature "walls off" some of the poison so that it is not all going into the systgm.

However when the teeth are re- moved the sockets and gums are dig- turbed and this poison that was be- int drained into the system in small amounts is all released into system it 0110B. and naturally there is an in- crease in the severity of the rheuma- tism or arthritis.

Now ft has been shown that the little bumw or glands in the iym. phatlc system of the neck, which are enlarged because of the poison be- 1118 drained into them from the ion- sils, do not get rid of their poison sometimes for two or three years af- ter tonsils are removed.

Also the teeth may only be part o: the trouble; although they are the cause in the majority of cases.

Infected teeth should be extracted before tonsils are removed, because the tonsils may be able to do their filtering and work of destroying or- ganisms if they haven't got to take care of some of the poisons from in- fected teeth also.

So remember that even if teeth and tonsils have been removed, there may be infections in other places which will take some time to get out of the system.

However the comforting thought is $111117 as the infected teeth have been removed, the poison factory has been closed down, and all that remains is to get the manufactured goods (the poisons) off the shelves (joints, in- tafine and so forth) and out of the system.

While certain drugs help, exercise and heat, by stimulating circulation are really your best treatment.

"But it isn't always possible to set into those schools. Therefore it be- hooves the fledgling flyer to look else- where. He can try the private flying schools. And here lies his danger.

Th8! have founded ‘schools’ that Bilarantec to teach you to fly by practicing in the parlor. They should be labeled, for such they are, ‘suicide schools.‘

"On the other hand there are leii" timate schools that are performing a real service. The interested youth should flnd out whether the equip- ment of a school is modern, whether the planes are licensed and govern-

ors and operators have government pilot license, whether many have been killed and injured during training. how regular pilots’ ‘rate’ the outfit, the kind of jobs graduates are now hold- ing, and so on.

“If he does all these things and the school stands up, he can feel reason- ably safe in casting his lot with such an organization. ,

"Commercial concerns pay good mlmey and want only good men. Our men average at least $100 a week. Few of them are in the air more than flvs hours-a day, four days a week."

So much for Colonel Henderson's sound advice. Now let us look at gov- ernment requirements. Ten hours ‘solo’ flying 1s necessary for a private lic- ense-a license to fly by yourself without a passenger. Fifty hours are required for a limited commercial pil- ot's license. For a transport pilot's lic- ense—the sort y for big mon- ey—2oc hours alone are necessary.-
