Victory F or Canada

At the time 0f wriung. whil: 2m minke of battle has not. yer cleared away. there is every indication that the King Government is doomed and that the Hon. R. B. Benneif will be returned to power as a result of yes- rerdays eleccion.

In the Maritime Provinces, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Is- land ‘gave splendid support‘ to the Conservative candidates, New Bruns- wick returning fen out. of eleven Conm-ative, Prince Edward Island farm out o.‘ four, Nova Scolla ten out. of fourfeen-a net gain of five Conservative seats in the Provinces by the sea.

The defeat of the Mixiisicr of Fisheries in Queen's County was a hard blow to nhe local Liberal organ- fzacion, which exerted itself to the

tmosc in his support.

Ban. John A. MacDonald in Kings County, and Messrs. W. Chester S. McLure and John H. Myers in Queens, are to‘ be hearclly congratu- lated on their splendid victory’.

Congratulations also are duc to Mr. J. Frank Amen. for the splendid lighc he puc up in Prince County, admittedly a Liberal stronghold. He gave Mr. A. E. MacLean one of the hardest baffles of his career.

At the time of ivriiioz details from other parts of Canada are not avail- able but the Canadian Press sum- mary shows ihat from one hundred and eleven seats heard from seventy five thirty Liberals, two Farmers and four others have been returned. Two of the new cab- inet ministers, the Hon. Cyrus Mac- millan and the Hon. M1". ‘ McKay, were defeat-d while lacer advices from Saskatchewan indicate that both the Hon. Mr. Dunning and the Hon. Mr. Cferar were among the fallen.

Conservative,

Parliamentary Representation

The House of Commons of Can- ada LS elected by the people for ﬁve years, unless sooner dissolved by the Governor-General. The speaker is chosen by rhe House at fhc opening sittifg of the ﬁrst session of each Parliament.

The number of members is regulat- ed by the British North America Act, which provides that Quebec shall have the ﬁxed number of 65 members. and that there shall be assigned to each of the other Provinces such a numbsr of members as will bear the some proportion to the number of its population <as ascertained at. every decennial census) as the num- ber 65 bears to ihe number of the population oi Quebec,

Al, Confedernclon (1387) the House nf Ccmmons consisfed of 1B1 members of which Ontario returned 82. Quebec L5. Nova Scoiia i9. and New Bruns- wick l5. During ihc fourth session of [he last Parliament the rcprcseniatlon was intfeasled m 191. Manitoba (4 members) and British Columbia (6 members) having entered Confeder- ltion.

The representation in the 2nd Par- liament under the Redistribution Act o! i872 was 200 up in the-last sessions, when there was an increase of 6 members owing in the admission of wince Edward Iciandfo Confeder- ation. Ontario had aiimem‘ n, Que- bec 65. Nova scotie 21, New Bruns- wick, l6, Menitobg. 4, British Colum- bi; 6. The mprsenfntion remained the came in the 3rd and 4th Pullo- merits.

The representation in the 5th Par- liament, under the Representation IAnt of 1837. was incfeued fc 211, the

‘Ontario representation being increas-

ed from as co 92am! that. pf Meni- (oba fromlto 5. ’ '*

INorihrves: Territories were granted representation with four members.

A change of far reaching import- ance to this Province was the reduc- [1011 during the 8th and 9th Parlia- mcnts of Prince Edward Island's rep- resentailon from 6 to 5, and later from 5 to 4, at which figure it re- mains.

During the first sesion of the 10th Parliament (1905) provision was made for the creation of the new provinces of Saskatchewan and Alberta out of the North-West Territories, and pro- vision was made for the faking of a census of population in the two new provinces. as also in Manitoba, in the middle year of each decade com- mencing with 1906. The results of the first quinquennlal census made necessary a readjustment of repre- senaflon in the House of Commons, bringing the total membership up to 221.

During the session of 1914. a Redis- tribution Bill was passed, providing for a. further increase in the number of members to 235.

' Another Redistribution Bill,.based upon the census of 1921, was adopted in 1924. Under ifs provisions ihe Maritime Provinces losc two seats, both in Nova scotla; the Prairie Pro- vinces gained eleven-4 going to A1- berta. 5 to Saskatchewan and 2 b0 Manitoba-while British Columbia gained one.

"The distribution oi the seats among the Provinces provided for in the act. is as follows:

_Now that the election is over. Can- adians may resume their various oc- cupations and stop inking.

Yesterday woe a quiet elecflon do! and pretty nearly everybody vofcd u was their duty to do.

Generalisniioni are made every ' now and again as to the relative cbil- l files of men and women. The assert- ed fact that. woman has not done wonders in certain walks of life, how- ever, may prove nothing more than that she has never had the chance. It in only in recent years that the dcors have been opened to woman. broadening her opportunities. An English girl flew from London to Australia,‘ a feat which compares with that of Lindbergh, about whom so much has been heard. Now comes the news that n. woman has won the King's Prize at the Blsley shoot. Miss M. E. Fosfcr of the Women's Legion. Erlgland, scored 280 out. of a possible 300 with the rifle. It begins to look as if a man has no particular monopoly in any line.

China his the historic foreword about gunpowder, the compass needle, printing devices, and some would add telephone and telescope to the list. And Derchance the Celestials have also somewhat of pertinent ap- plication to say about. the Socialist panacea. Juding from their records it would seem they knew the ins and outs of most. of the great and knotty questions which today are now agi- tating the legislatures and public mind in the Western Hemisphere. And it all happened a thousand years ago.

Canada has more. and a greater, any other country in the world,

populous and most prosperous of any country in the world.

If. is sometimes said 1n defense of Chicago's delinquencies that it has great, undigested masses of foreign- ers among is people and that these foreigners are not. amenable to Am- erican law. Chicago is the second Czeclrcity in the world. the third Swedish, the fourth Polish, the ﬁfth German. But London has its masses of foreigners, foo, more, probably, than Chicago. And they do not mur- der one another.

Probably no people in the world make greater use of an acre of land than‘ do the people of Belgium.‘ "If their farmers farmed as we farm,“ it would be impcssible for so many of them to exist 1n such a small land, but, by their thorough methods of culivaiing the‘ land, their industry, care and thrift the Belgians have be- come a very prosperous people. The ccndlticrs of the country compel the people l; give the greatest attention to these matters.

Loudspeakers made their ﬁrst ap- pearance in Buckingham Palace on Thursday, according to a London cable. To faclltate the departure of; the guests at the garden party which ! King George and‘ Queen Mary‘ gave‘ on that day, microphones and am- pliﬁers had been installed. As each automobile arrived at the gates of the palace the name of its owner was announced through a loudspeaker in the Grand Hall of the palace.

Ln Brooklyn, New York, a lad of thirteen was ill with pleurisy. A nurse attended him, he grew rapidly worse, but his mother, a. woman in comfort- able circumstances, refused to allow an operation to save the boy's life. She held the view that if the Lord wished the child in live, the lad would live. The. Superintendent of the Children's Society found if. hard to see the lad dying before his eyes, and failing m make any impression on the mother took the matter to court. The mother was heard and held the belief that if it was written in the mysterious decrees of Provi- dence that the lad was to die she would take no steps to interfere. When flve doctors gave evidence that only an operation would save ihe lad’; life, the court ordered if. to be done.

The operation was performed and the child recovered. Thai is an in- stance where-the law of the lend in- terfered with the personal liberty of the moi-her and step, ’ in to save the boy's life and did. A parent may have some rights, but there are lim- fin.

DRUGS TO REDUCE WEIGHT

-_-.-.

In is unioriunétc that so nlnny over-

weight individuals have heard of the thyroid treatment. for reducing weight.

Aficf trying me system of talsins a. lime less 100d daily they have found 1c u-gsome and have naturally longed for a method that would not be so hard to undergo.

Accordingly they have learned from a friend who Bot the prescription from a physician, the dose of thyroid extract. that is considered safe, and

they have tried it on themselves,

The results have been distressing in some casa, and almost, disastrous in others. because as a. matter of fact there isn't more than one in H hun- dred cases of overweight, that. can be classified as due to lack of thyroid ex- traccln the sysicm.

In fact Drs, Newburgh Johnson and

Falcon-Lesses, Ann Arbor, Mich. are certain chat overweight is never

directly caused by lack of thyroid ac- tion but that if, is always due to food habits not adjustcd to the tissue r:- quirement of the individual elcher by eating more food than is normally needed or failure to reduce the food intake despite the fact that chcir bo- dies show that 1cm food should be

eaten.

And evcnin the cases where it seem that; thyroid extract overweight,

search men are now finding that me extract. thyroiclin obtained

ihinoid from animals-is effective in the treat. merit of overweight, Only incombin-

ation with a reduced diet. also.

This business o! thinking they can eat what lhey like whilst faking me ihyroidin, is the cause of many of the failures of these overweight cases.

Even with reduction of iniake of for/d. andihc use of fhyi-oidin, the safe treatment is to reduce the food gradually for a few weeks before Still-mg i316 use of the extract, Even where the reduction ls progrsscing favourably, chyroidin should noc be given for more than a month at any 02c time. and always under supervi- E1011.

Nov: i.’ ihe use of drugs or extracts for TFGHCDEQ‘ weight, igcnly suitable about. onre in a hundred cases, and even in these cases food reduction should be a part of the treatment, it dces look as if ciﬂ-ting dew-n gradu- ally cn the food iniake and increasing the exercise was the only common sense method of iuluclng weighc,

Other methods are unsatisfactory and may be unsafe.

Britain Enthused i

iToromo Mall and Empire)

There is no tenable ground for the Liberal contention that, the Dunning budget represents the United King- dom's view of infra-Empire trade. British newspapers just to hand pre- sent much interesting detailed in- formation i-cgarding‘ the movement in the Old Country. There is, for in- stance, a full report, of ‘the British bankers‘ statement in support of Im- perial economic unity. This report commits all the leading banking in- stitutions of the country to the policy of "reciprocal trade agreements be- tween the nations constituting the British Empire. As a condition of securing such agreements, Great Britain must rcialn an open market for all Empire products, while being prepared to impose duties on all 1m- poris from all other countries."

The London times, commenting on this pronouncement, states editorial- ly that there is no disputing the cv- idence and auihorliy of ihosc be- hind ic, which include the Bank of England, the five great joint-stock banks and other banking houses in London. “This conclusion must be added to the conclusions similar in spirit and effect reached by the chambers of Commerce, by the Fed- eration of British Industries, and by the Economic Committee of the 'I‘ra.des Union ‘Congress. The Times says that the bankers’ decision goes far tc assure reciprocity within the Empire, as no form of duty is to be ruled out. if. Great Britain if it ls ‘necessary w e working Imperial agreement. "The economic education of Britain as. farm a. long stride forward. . . . .T'he dominions can present a. counter-case which will fli: into the bank reasoning."

The Times further says that one result. of what has taken place ls "the burial of the already extinct refer- endum." In other words, the policy of fiscal preferences for Empire food and Empire raw matcrials“will be adopicd as the policy ofthose dom- inam forces rln Great, Britain who are working for Imperial economic unity. At this date they include most of the leading statesmen, bankers and industrialists of the Mother Land. As Sir Austin Chamberlain said on July 10th, "This policy la winning by force of circufrlstan and is going in be triumphant in e short time." And inn u u-ic policy put. before the Canadian people by the Hon. R. B. Bennett and the Conservative party.

We notice, moreover, that the re- port of the British preparatory com- mittee for the forthcoming Imperial Cunferenoei-n conference first. pro- posed by Mr. Bonnet‘ in Mr. Bennett's idea. of infra-Empire trade. This committee is composed of the Association of British chambers of Commerce, the Federation of British Industries and the Chambers of shipping of the United Kingdom, which, takbn inletber, represent the whole of the commerce, industry end shipping of ‘the United Kingdom.

(London Qiily kpress)

booking infc the future exactly one hundred end seventy-two NR8. 88- tronomers make the moat. lstoni-shinl prediction of an event phat no one has ever witnessed since man M8011; to record history,

This great event is to lake place in the northern sky. It will b9 the arriv- al of Polaris, the North or Pole star, z at the North Pole. , _ l

when this happens, according to; the calculationsof. astronomers, the Pole star and the celcslzlal North Pole will be less than one-half of’ one I degree apart, twenty-eight. minutcsof l, an arc to be exact. i

But when they meet, the Pole star} will pass on without a. pause, and in a few more centuries will be so for away that there will be no North star.

The star has been used as a guide to the true north for so long that men have forgotten the time when there was no Pole star. There have been many such times, however, and | there will be again, for it is only once in 26,000 years that the North Pole of the celestial sphere‘ and this par- ticular star comes" so close that they ‘ virtually meet. .

“It is not the star," says a sclentisz, 3 "but the earth that is to blame. In- \ stead of revolving constantly in the ‘ same plane, its hxis slowly chnngesl its direction from year to year as the ‘i earth moves about the sun.

"In its course, the tip of the pointer would point once at the Pole star-as I it is going to do in 2l02~and then pass on, to approach in iurn, at in- tervals sometimes of many thousand years, other stars and constellations.

"It is a curious coincidence that sailors undcrtookiheir first long voy- ages across the sea at a time when Polaris was nearenough to the true north to serve as a fairly efficient guide and supplement to their crude methods of navigable ."
