The little girl who said "lions are mean" had every reason to say so, because she was the one who was mauled by a lioness at the Lethbrldge exhibition. Lions certainly are mean, little girl, and we don't blame you a bit for say- ing so. However, we don't. blame the lions, either, if you under- stand what we mean. No wonder lions are mean!

That the national musical in- strument of Scotland is far older than its Scottish tics seems well established,says the National Geo- graphic Socicty. It is regarded as Asiatic in origin and counted among the most. ancient of music- makers.

Brnving the wrath of his coun- trymen, the Glasgow scholar places the arrival of the bagpipe in Scotland as late as the 16th cen- tury and finds it. came from Italy. There is evidence, however. that bagpipes were brought to the British Isles by Roman legion- naircs. to whom the instrument was well known. Nero was re- ported to be an accomplished per- former cn one type of bngpipc. The pipes were popular with trou- badoure of the Middle Ages.

. . .

The Scottish people have taken the bagpipe as their own. No Highland or Lowland festival or party is complete without pipe music, and Scottish military bug- pipe bands are as famous as the noted regiments to which they belong.

Much of fthe music written for the bagplpe is Scottish. There are three types of such music. The Ceol- Bug, or Little Music. con- sists of dance and march tunes; the Ceol Meadonach, or Middle Music, includes slow marches, re- treats, and simple laments: and finally, the majestic Ceol Mor, or

Big Music, embraces the great sonata: or concerto: of bagpipe composition.

There are about. 300 laments, battle hymns, and salutes that can be classified as Big Music. They are not for the amateur

performer or listener. The Big Music is considered by experts to be truly great national music. It consists of certain melodic lines repeated and varied with chang- ing groupings .of.rh.ythm.

The most: famous of all High- land musicians, the Maccrimmons.

Those who heard the debate on agriculture in the Commons Thurs- day must have had memories of the great depression of the two's when the bottom fell out. of farm prices. Members cited instances of farmers receiving at present as lit.- tle ll 18 cents per dozen for eggs and a net of 21 cents for n 38- pound hide, 0 -During the depression eggs were selling for in few cents per dozen. and some caltleehipped from the foothills to Winnipeg scarcely paid the freight and commlulon coats.

The Governor General of Can- ada. drew an admirable lesson frotn Confederation Day when he advised his Canadian felluw-cltiz- ens to "keep to their own chii.rac- ter to fulfil the role assigned them in this new Elizabethan era." Mr. Massey emphasized that a host of little things contribute through our national life to con- stitute our national character. We ought to realize that, he said, and to take hold of the task that is ours within confederation which still remains a "great. art. of faith," of men endowed with a great. foresight."--tLc Solcil, Que- beet. i
