I Premier Baldwin has won golden opinions wherever he has been seen and heard since coming to Canada. The impression he has made is re- flected in the advice of an.’ Ontario newspaper to the coming Conserya-

leader for the party. ."Choose a mun as much like Stanley Baldwin as possible," is the advice offered, and it could hardly be improved upon. Mr. Baldwin's qualifications for par- ty leadership are _ very high and brtfivd and stotesmarllike. But the Conservative party in Canada has a 1MB‘! lmdy 0f very able men to

Mr. Baldwin himself was hardly spoken of as a possible leader .flve years before he was called to that position and the same was true of Sir Wilfred Laurier in Canada. It is true that there are “as good fish in the sea as ever swam in it," but not every fisherman gets albig fish and

the wisest possible choice when call- ed to select a lender. The right man} for the present emergency lives somewhere betwee l the two oceans but who he is and where he lives is yet to be determined.

The Liberal party in Canada has‘ found its leaders in Ontario and Quebec. Mackenzie, Blake and Mackenzie King hailed from Ontar- io and Laurier from Quebec. The Conservative party has taken a wid- er range, but still not very wide. Sir John Macdonald, Mackenzie Bowell. and Arthur Meighen were Ontario men, Abbott a Quebec man, and‘ Thompson, Tupper and Borden were from Nova Sootia. The three Pro- vinces of Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia have thus far furnished the federal political leaders of bothl parties during the past sixty years.

l Neither New BrunswIcIf. Prince Ed Island, Saskatchewan, Al- berta or British Columbia ‘have yet glvenva federal party a leader, nor has Manitoba in the strict sense of l the word. Mr. Melghen when he be-l came leader and Premier held anI Ontario seat although at other times he had sat for Portage la Prairie, Manitoba. The gapldly growing im- portance of the four western prov- lnces and the ability and influence of their leading representatives have aroused a desire for leadership in the West which may have its effect in the coming convention.

The Great West cannot be expect- ed always to follow an eastern lead- er. West is at least equal to the East, and the division point is at the head of the great lakes. To them Ontario Quebec and the Marltlmes constit- ute "Eastern Canada.” The Conven- tion is to meet in Winnipeg and the Westwill no doubt be largely repre- sented thereat. The Maritimes. be- cause of the distance and the time required to make the return journey are not expected to be so fully rep- resented as the Western and Central Provinces and we are not likely 9o have any candidate in the running for the leadership.

Immigration to Canada is increas- ing, although but slowly since it was checked by the war. It has been mismanaged and neglected sadly for years and is yet far from satisfact. ory. Settlers from the British Isles are the most desirable, because they speak our language and are ‘comm- omed to British institutions. Next in order of desirability are native born citizens of th'e United States, who speak our language and are acquainted with farm machinery and with modem-methods or culti. vation of the soil and. harvesting neldcrops on a largehlcale.

For you must know that the star fish, far from belrlifl-he lllllwent creature that it seems. is. so far as mussels and oysters are concerneda veritable monster of destruction. Like ourselves, he is especially fond of oysters; but he has greatly im- proved upon our clumsy methods of getting them. He cloesthe trick this way. The oyster, like all other ani- mals. must breathe and also eat. When he was very very young he was able to swim about, and forage for himself. _ But-and here he sets a most commendable example to many humans-the oyster settles down in life quite early. Coming to a rock. an old shell, or other suitable place. he lies down on his left side, attaches himself, and remains so for the rest of his days. So that now the oyster spends most of his time with his shell opened just a little. to allow the water to circulate free- ly through his gills and to bring him particles of food.

Well, the star fish, in his leisurely march over the beds. comes upon an "oyster, who, more likely than not. will have his shell open. You have doubtless heard the expression “As dumb as an oyster," and doubtless too it seemed very appropriate. But the oyster is not so dumb, (using the word in its slangy sense this time) that he doesn't know when danger is at, hand.
