Principle ca. Expediency

.'I‘he difference between the two political parties of Canada was well defined syaneaxs. a. Bennett in his. lddresi Fit xamlovvs. a 0., an Saturday when" hesaid that the fora continuity of polioybased on principle, whereas the {liberal Government at Ottawa- oxbotimcnts for purposes of exped- iency and the securing of power. The Cabinet shuffling of the past few weeks affords striking evidence of the Justice of this oflticism. Every move of the King Government may be traced to expediency. The court- ing of the West by over-generous distribution of portfolios, the prom- ises made to Quebec, the delay in appointing a Minister of Fisheries. are eases in point. Then there is the position of both parties with respect the tariff, which is the most im- portant issue of all. While the con- aerefllve policy has always been for adequate protection in the homo market, the Liberal policy has waver- ed uncertainly and it would be dif- ficult indeed to predict whether the present "watchful waiting" will re- sult in higher or lower tariffs at the next session of Parliament.

Civic Affairs

The annual reports of the City Council, which will be submitted at s special meeting of the council to- morrow evening, will be awaited with great interest by our citizens, It will be recalled that at the last election there was some delay in printing and distributing the accounts. This year, it is hoped, all the accounts will be in the hands of the electors time before the polling day.

("The "Council has been energetic in the discharge of its duties during the term, and its administration gen- erally, we believe, has received the approval of our_ citizens. There are, however, a certain number who are not- altogether satisfied, and it is necessary that they should have an opportunity of expressing their opin- ions and eliciting the information they require. This opportunity should be given by the Council at a public meeting, afwhich the mem- bersmcould give an account of their stewardship and answer any ques- uonslllat aligns be asked. s. frank discussion‘ in matters of this kind is the best means of arriving at a mut- ual understanding.

While it may be said that no out- standing issues are likely to come up coming civic election, never- theless there are matters of consid- arable public interest which should not be ignored. For example, it is very essary that slop! be taken to w. the Market Hall, known as the

Nothing isimorsoblte- tionable- and‘ annoying from year to year-property owners should be visited and_ navslis defend existing valuations placed-on their properties the precedioz Yeti’. For the satisfactory ‘Se ,ment ofthe city it is essential-that when a erty has been valued and approved at a certain figure, that figure-should remain for a definite perlodof years before being subiect to revision.

There are other matters of inter- est involved in the question of civic usessment, but as these matters are awaiting decision on appealln our Courts, it would be improper. to offer further comment at this time. ‘

In efficient police administration, in the matter of ‘street work pro- gramme, public grants toftile Pro- vlncisl Exhibition, the diptheril. im- munization campaign, etc" andin many other activities throughout the year, the Council has shown com- mendable Ju‘ The financial and other reports, when submitted, will enable our electors to Judge of all these activities for‘ themselves. Civic elections, as they are free from political rancor, aremore likely to result in impartial decisions than sometimes prevails‘ in the provincial and federal fields. fwithellsvailable information early to hand, our citi- zens can be depended upon to weigh the issues fairly and reasonably.

Origin of Hilary Term

Hilary Term as applied to univer- sitles and law courts, saysa writer in an Ontario“ exchange, is a memor- ialof SaintHiiarsnbisl-lop of Poitiers, France, who died on January 13th. in the year m of me Christian era. The son of pagan parents of high‘ social standing, his conversion _to "the new faith" was a sensation in Poitiers, but so enthusiastic an evin- gellst of Christianity was he that he brought hundreds of his fellow citi- zens to abandon their pagan worship and be baptized in the church of Christ. when, therefore, a bishop was needed for the new flock it is not surprising that the choice fell upon Hilary, who lives inhislcry as one of the few bishops wliorelobed that office from the laity without having passed through the dlaconate and priesthood. Consecralelibishov in 353 he became flmous'_'al an c?‘ ponent of Arianism. and so many enemies that a few years laicr he was banished to bY u" Emperor Constantine. w a prolific writer of both P7060 and verse. Unfortunately none‘ of his hymns have survived; but his living a. atlses are his lllltvfl °f synods; s. survey of the Councils of the East; a defence of the Nicene faith addressed to the bishops of England; a work on the Trinity. 49- mm; m, phmminio doctrineof the divinity of cal-M: I wmwm" "P Matthew; and an unveil-Ml 0! t" Psalms. - '

» After much research the class were informed that Britain had no name until Pytheas, 24 centuries ago, see- ing its painted people, wrote of it as- the Pretanlc Isles. (the Isle of Painted lilen.) Men ‘were painted then as some women are today, Py- theas was a famous citizen of Athens in the time of Alexander the Great. and was also a noted traveller, as- ‘ norner and geographer and visited Britain in his travels. ‘The name he gave continued until the P. Became B. and the Pretanlc Isle became the Britanic Isle.

"Prom a well-Informed but unoffic- ial estimate we learn that some 2,- 527 breeding foxes were exported to mlrope from Prince Edward Island in 1929, representing a value of about $1,500,000. In addition about 15,000 fox pelts averaging $100 each were shipped to various world centres. That represents a combined value in animals and pelts of $3,000,000 from the fox industry.

Among our small number of peo- ple, that is ‘a very considerable rev- enue to be derived from a new pur- suit that was unknown to the world a comparatively few years ago, which was discovered and developed" here. Three million dollars is thus gather- ed in a year from the farms without encroaching upon the cultivated fields, the meadows, or the pastur- age of other live stock which our farmers produce in larger measure than before. The fur farmingindus- try is a Just source of prideto every Islander.

Expansion of the forest productive industries in New Brunswick is spreading prosperity through the province, says Premier Baxter in a review of the past year. He: men- tioned increased activity in the port of Saint John, the establishment of municipal airports, expanding tour- lst traffic, improved highways, and satisfactory immigration of British ‘settlers. Premier Baxter's review names the Grand Falls hydro-elect- ric power development as the key factor in a $40,000,000 program for pulp paper and power expansion in New Bfllligiwiflk.

The’ Labor Go-ernmen‘ in England seems now uh elyito get through the session without ’defeat. It has" had a. narrow escape but a short time ago and was only aved because - no party in Parliament desired au| election. What has been moderate- ly successful in the Government's course so far has been its foreign policy almost alone.

‘rilameasures taken to nnd ‘em- ployment for the unemployed seem to have ended in abject failure. The = number of idle men who live on thev dole has increased withinthe past few months by 800.000 according a: official reports‘, the coal trade is in a bad way and the miners complain- ing.

- Among Premier MacDonald's min- ister's are a number of orators and persuasive speakers who are sadly lacking in administrative experiener and in some cases they appear to be incapable of handling successfully the measures they had‘ ‘ atoll with great fervor and eloquence.

As a youngster I lived very close to what we called the asylum in our city, a place where ‘crazy’ ‘peoplq were kept. - -

I often played in the grounds bo- eausc we were tcld that me patients walking about there were onlyjhe ‘silly’ ones who wouldn't “iliillii ‘you: the ‘bad’ ones, _cr the ones who would do you harm, were always kept look- Bd up. .

This sounds as if "it were swIY back in the past, but as a mat‘ of fact the real sensible treatment of these cases is only at the beginning.

I have spoklen before about the in- fections (from teeth, tonsils, infes- tine, and so forth) that were shown to be the cause of many of these conditions, and the removal of which removed all traces of any mental ail- ment. _

However some or these cases have got down so far, that even the re-J rnoval of the infection has not always brought complete results.

0f course the fact that these pat- ients found that various things were belng done [for them, and that they were beingitreated just like,a.ny other patient, raised their morale,

After treatment was completed and even during its progress, lt was found $1181’! Patients who were given some ‘worlr to do about the institution made more "Did profiles toward wmliiete y "than. others who lvero idle. - ’ Now you and I who have our men- tal health like to do work wemnloy. and this is really the key nowin the treat ent of these cases by mfinnl "e: wor .
