TRADE WITH WALES

A concrete example of the advan- tage of developing infra-Empire trade is furnished in the following clipping from a Cardiff, (Wales) newspaper, which The Guardian has received from Capt. w. Griffith, Manager of British and Canadian

txportcrs ' and Inlpoilcrs, Mei‘- tlaiits’ Exchange, Docks, Cardiff:

the innovation, and he ls also handling the ti lrul: consign- nlcnt of tinned l ibcrrics from

Brizlsh Columbia. A

All the goods arc being import- ed direct to Cardiff.

Capt. Griffith writes that he

wishes to compliment iiic exporters at Charlottctoivn (Aicssrs. R. E. Mutch and Company, Ltd.) on their efforts to create a market iii Wales for Prince Edward Island oysters. Whilst their met with a considerable degree of suc- cess, he strongly advises grading of oysters so as to meet the quantity as contained in ilic American barrels. The oysters preferred arc the med- luln sized. The last Island consign- niciit showed a marked improve- ment in this respect. It is suggest- ed, howc\'ei', that ilic oysters bc washed before being shipped.

Inquiries have also been recclvcd by Captain Griffith with regard to Prince Edward Island oats, which at one time were considcrcd the best oats sent over from Ctiiiadu, and al- Wily! commanded a good price.

In return, South Wales in partic- ular would welcome Anthracite coal. "We arc looking forward, Capt. Griffith coilclullcs. PM a reciprocal trade ‘with your Drovlnces. Any inquiries will al- ways be welcomed at my office."

The opportunity thus offered of Ie-establisl-llng a. market in Wales [or Prince Edward Island agricul- tural products as well as oysters is most promising. While til; exchange situation at FY6561" betwwll can‘ Ida and Great Britain is‘ unsatis- factory, this is but a. tcmiJOIBPY 0°11- dition and the assurance of Caplfllll Griffith indicates that when the trade channels opened as a. result of the Imperial Conference asreemcnt are further developed, the reputfltloh of Prince Edward Island PTQdllCt-ii together with our proximity to the Atlantic seaboard, will give us a unl- que advantage in obtaining a 110D price and steady market.

And since the tune is heard without the words at least as Often as with the first verse of them only, and. very much oftenep without any than with all, lt is no light thins that Kneller Hall, the headquarters of army music, should have made an effort to rescue the tune from misuse and w get it properly and effectively played all over the O0lllltl‘_\', Report says that the iieiv suggestion for the time and the volume of the music (there is 110 change in the air nor in the har- monies) has been put forth at the cxihcss wish of the King. ‘that. is vcry probable. On hi5 way out t0 India in January", 1912, His ivfajcsty noticed that the Natilioal Anthem was not being played on board ship in the correct and prescribed time. and the result was an order from the Southen Command that on the voyage back this fault should be amended. Twenty-one years later the King shows that his interest is unabated. His ear ha; not become dulled to the tune by repetitions in- numerablc. Its music still holds for him its meaning, its dignity, its sig- nificant worth.

Winter Sunshine

(Montreal Gazette)

With most folk themcniion of winter begets a shrug of the sllfllll‘ dcrs as though flinging off ilic iio- tion of punishment much as n. dog shakes himself coming out of a cold stream. Elymologlsts have found much tmuble ln finding the root nlcaniiig of the word “iviiiit-r", and have variously dubbed it the windy, the wet, and the ivaiilnl! season. The poets a'ao have shown themselves singularly reticent about the frosty interlude, for the most part coiitenting themselves with referring to the "fanned snow winnoucd and packed by Sclavoiiian winds," or the icicle tusks hanging from the eaves. tokens of the “inverted year." Yet. surely. it is possible to say a good word for the wintry season, in spite of its ill-repute and in spite of those etchings which present the knobbly trce thrashed by the stinging kiiout of the tempest, and some solitary figure trudging pain- fully along burdened by a scrng-
