"MAKING GOOD"

“The Mackenzie King Govern- ment, despite its limitations in not having a working ntajorlty Ln the House of Commons anti in face of n hostile Senate, is carrying otrln a tfluner deserving of the greatest credit. Watched at every move by a strong party greedy for power. i.\lr. King and his confreres are showing in Parliament an adroit- tress worthy of the best traditions oi parliamentary proceedure iii getting through the Commons leg- islation in strict accordance with the promises made in tlie Speech from the Throne. This was thought by many impossible on October 29. anti still more so at the opening of Parliament when the Government's programme was set forth in very positive language."—-Plotieer, May 29th.

Nothing can disturb the rare

Tragedy and comedy are alike in him for he sees the humor even in a tragedy. ivhile the rest of his Liberal con- temporaries stand aghast at the situation at Ottawa anti in the Lib- eral camp generally, be looks on with that amused stolcism with which one watches n dog-fight. He admires the "limitations" of the King Government and the manner in which Premier iKing manipul- ates them. The “face oi‘ a hostile Senate" is a ibit of sarcasm, the senate showing its "hostility" only by frequent vacations taken tn re- lieve the monotony of fruitless waiting for legislation from the House of Commons. ln spite of its "limitations" and the "hostile Senate; tlie Govéknmcnt is "carry- ing on." Here the humor super- cedea the sarcalzm. No Government in the history of Canada has ever "carried on" has the King Government. Some people don't like the "carrying on", ‘but they amuse the imperttirboble Pioneer! "An odroitness worthy of the ‘best

‘THAT BUDGET

The great “budget for the people" which in its original form was to brittg in that long-looked-for golden era. has undergone many changes during the discussion of it in com- mittee, and with the changes came considerable tlisillusion to such of the Liberals as can be disillusion- ed. The reduction in the ditty oti automobiles has been modified bya considerable reduction in the duty on parts, while changes were made in excise duties and other taxes. Of course. the ‘West was not lost sight of lll most 0f the changes. We note that the duty on fresh meats has been raised a half cent per pound. The West is raising its own beef now and does not want too much American beef to interfere with their home market. The East does not import fresh meat in any considernlble quantity although we get a few car-loads of fresh valrk now and again which herp to keep the price or pork down. There has been no increase in the duty on eggs or hams or bacon. or any of the pro- the Ettstern Provinces depend upon for a living and they will, under the "budget for the people" be obliged to rttn the gauntlet of American competition as before.

Some of the canned products of the Liberal machine at Ottawa are still doing duty in some Maritime newspapers when "copy" is scarce. The propaganda against the Con- servative memibers declares that they voted against the reduction oi income tax and postage and the other "nuisance taxes" is still go-

“The evidence piling up it the ‘ inquiry," says the Toronto Globe, “ls becoming more amazln! daily. lt is almost inconceivable that two such important revenue- producing channels as Customs and Excise could be permitted to run as loose as statements of witnesses

tlie extent which smuggling and iliqtior frauds have reached has ‘not been too severe."

The Chief Liberal Journal of Canada goes 0n to point out “the open brnzenness" with which the illegal business has been carried on, almost without fear of interfer- ence or punishment. Captain Trem- hiay made n deposit oi‘ $1,700 out of his unlawful profit of $5,000 and sailed away with his boat, when it

should have been forfeited and when he should have been prose-

cuted. Gambler frankly admitted smuggling silks anti other gootls in daylight in sight of (Iustoms of- ficers. While wliat the George Companies did may never ‘be known but apparently within a few years tilt-y have defrauded the country out of $1,000,0Uil iu Excise revenue.

..__.

Well miy the question be asked: How far has this thing gone? ‘it is well also that Liberal jottrtials have felt it a public duty to speak their condemnation of the Depart itients under which the untazitlg and sickening transactions have gone on for years unchecked anti tiitpttuisltetl. They might properly have gone further and mentioned that at least three ministers of the King Government have been inipli- cated in protecting the criminals from the just punishment of their offences. The inquiry still goes on with fresh revelations of rat-reality at every sitting of the t-otnmittee.

In the meantime danger from another quarter threaten: the Gov- ernment. it grows ottt of the pro- posed transfer to Alberta of the lands and natural resources inthat ‘Province. The King Government

insisted upon retaining by the Dom- inion of control of tltc school

lands, a condition which the Pro- gressive Government aitri Legisla- ture of Alberta flatly refused to at‘- cept. A deadlock ensued and the Federal Government threatened not to proceed with the. transfer at this session unless its stipulations are agreed to by the Provincial Government.

So matter: stood when the Leg- islature of Alberta was proroqued, and it has since been dissolved and‘ an early date ‘fixed for tbe'coming election. The situation is furtbei complicated by a‘ majority of the Progressive members in the Hausa of Commons being in full sympa- tliy with the demand of the Alber- ta Government for untramtneled possession of the natural resources and lauds in question. An Ottawa despntch to a Montreal paper is atttbority for the statement that the Progressive members referred to have issued an ultimatum tothu King Government demanding that the transfer shall be agreed to tit once on the basis insisted upon by Alberta, and that the necessary Act of Parliament to give effect there to shall the passed during the pre sent session at Ottawa.

The Quebec Ministers and the majority of their supporter: art understood to he squarely opposed‘ to complying with the Progresslvt- ultimatum. Should they persist itr this attitude and any considerable number of Progressive membersde 1 eide to vote against the Govern

ment, it will have to look else

Where else can the Government hope to find support if the Progrcs elves ‘break away? Every possible source of assistance had ‘been mp ed in earlier in the session. Pro gresslves were “co-operating" ltl full measure, Labor and lndepen dent members lent their aid and to those had ‘been added the support of the man from iPence Rivet whose sole title to a seat was stol on votes apportioned to hlm,by l returning oillcer who is now in

Qmbqlq Bqrml] SUME THOUGHTS ABOUT LIME

Two Washington physicians have been workluB fill 11"" 311‘ manta that. they think may have a common cause.

These are asthma, hay 1'8"" find eczema.

in 100 patients with asthma they found that 65% did not. have en- ough lime in their system.

-ln 43 cases of hay fever, cases that had the attack every year. nearly 60% were deficient in lime. Of 15 cases of eczema 60% were deficient in lime.

These patients deficient in lime were advised to eat 1119111!’ 01 111° foods that were rich in lime, and to get as much sunshinevas DOB" slible.

The foods that are particularly rich in lime are, yolk of e888. H6511 milk,‘cheeee, whole wheat and bran bread, oranges, carrots, callibage, lettuce spinach. oatmeal, prunes, almonds walnuts and also peanuts. Where the lime deficiency was lo~w lltne was given in a concentrated form three titties a day. These pat- ients also received quartz llslll treatment, whidras you know is artificial sunlight.

l spoke once before about the benefits of lime in burns and in rold ulcer cases. 'i‘he treatment was the ordinary chloride of lime, well mixed ltt n syrupy solution, and given in the usual doses by tbc physician.

l spoke once before also about the research dentist, Dr_ Price of Cleveland, who is having great success by administering lime to patients with poor teeth. The nor- mul lime in the blood is used to t-otubitie with poisonous materials in-tlte illlOOLl, to render them hnrni~ less and remove them from the body. Therefore where there is lu- fectiou of the teeth, _or infection elsewhere in the body, lime is a logical treatment for same to re- tplace lime used tip by the infec- tion. .

These t-wo Washington physic- ians report that a record of these cases which were deficient in lime, showed after treatment with lime and sunlight, that 98% were de- finitely improved, there being fail- ures in only 3%.

it does seem too bad that as in- tel-ligent human beings we have to secure artificial sunlight, and take lime in a concentrated form, when with all the foods mentioned above and the real sunshine of the out- doors, we cottld not only keep fit, bttt get more joy out of living.

Five Tests In Self Analysis

Excerpt; from The American Mag- azine (December, '25.)

Everett W. Lord, in an interview with Bruce Barton

investigations carried on by Ev- erett W. Lord. dean 0f the College of Business Administration. of Bos- ton Uaiversity, into the earning power of many thousands of gram- mar-school, high-school, and 0011988 graduates, yield the fact that. roughly, every hour in high-school is worth $5 in after life, and every hour of college study earns at least $10.

“Of course," said the dean, “the object in gathering the figures was to encourage boys tokeep on Wltll their education. But if you could persuade a thousand men to whom college bad been denied to keep track of the hours which they spend in any definite effort at self-ini- provement, l am positive that those hours would slYiw a cash value of $10 at least.

“The reason why most men fail to make intellectual, and, conse- quently financial progress is be- cause they never insist upon a clear-cut self-analysis . . To do this, you must, first of all, survey your mental resources: find ottt where you are weak in your 6X18!- ing fund of knowledge.
