SIR JOHN AIRUS VISIT.‘ ficial effect. ‘There is reason, in

._ this Province as in the Maritimes The vLsit of Sir John Aird and his . generally, for optimism with regard colleagues to Charlottetown is one of to the future, but that future, it is more than ordinary importance. Prl- realized, cannot be secured by ignor- mariiy, their visit was in connection ing all the lessons of the past. with the adjustmcnt of the radioi “The feeling in Central Canada" ‘klystem, one of the great innovations in favor of Maritime Union, to bf modern times. The Commission { which Sir John referred is, with all has visited many European coun- deference, not a factor in the situ- rries and United States, gathering ation at all. data for their investigation into c0n- . As the Sydney Post well says:

"There has never been any ser- ious agitation for Maritime Union since Confederation, and one doubts that there ever will be. There is next to no sentiment in these provinces favoring such a project. It is doubtful whether a score of persons could be found in Prince Edward Island to vote for annexation to the sister pro- vince. It has never beer, an is- sue in New Brunswick or Nova Scotia, and this for two reasons. One is that practical-minded peo- ple know that it is impossible, and the other that no sound argu- ment has ever been put forward in its favor."

will doubtless be a valuable and com- prehensive one, the purpose being to extend the educational and nation- building advantages of the radio in every ‘Province. The sitting held , yesterday afternoon in the Legislat- ive Chamber threw much valuable light _0n the situation in this Pro- vince, and on the vast possibilities which lie in the near future through i this wonderful discovery.

ages ._ under which these Provinces ‘have labored ever since Confedera- tion, are less likely to be appreciat- ed by outsiders. The fact remains, however, that these objections exist, and cannot be waived aside by rosy generalities.

In his brief interview with The Guardian yesterday, Sir John ad- mite that this Province has suffered serious loss because of its union with the larger Provincs; but he is sat- isfied that. this injustice would not be repeated in the case of the mer- gar of the three Maritime Provinc- es. fs there any warrant for opti- mism? As in the case of the larger union. the injustice resulted mm no calculated plan on the part of the Central’ and Western Provinces to deprive the lvfarlthne Provinces of their rights, but from the inevit- able relationship between majorities and minorities, so in the proposed Maritime Union the same relation- ehlp will exist and the same unsatis- factory result may be expected.

Sir 'John ignores the sentimental reasons against a merging of the identity of Provinces which have ex- isted as self governing units for generations before Confederation but the reasons he himself advances for e Maritime Union which would work to the benefit of all concerned are

_ purely sentimental.

RhOde Island, which has mlintdifi-

charged with having driven in a! manner dangerous to the public, The provincial ofiicer who laid the charge testified that the defendant in the case had travelled on the highway at that speed for a long distance at the bead of a line of 800 motor vehicles, and refused to mend’ his pace or pull over to the side of the roadway.

The magistrates decision, though it has occasioned some surprise, is generally approved. The Toronto Mail and Empire sums up the situ- ation thus:

"The man who drives on the high- ways at an excessively high rat/a of speed deserves punishment, particularly if he endangers the lives of other people. The man who jogs along at i0 or i5 miles an hour, when there are few ve- hicles on the roads and when oth- er drivers have plenty of oppor- tunities and plenty of room to pass his machine, is not deserving of _censure. The man who persiscts in traveling at an extremely low rate of speed when he has a clear stretch of road ahead of him and a long line of vehicles behind him. and when a steady stream of automobiles is moving past him in the direction opposite to his own,- is in a very different pCll- tion. He is hindering the move- ment of traffic and unnecessarily delaying the progress of other trav- elers on the road. He may also be tempting some impatient driver in the line of vehicles behind him to run an unduly great risk in the effort u; pass the slowly-moving machine, of collision with e motor cartravelling in the opposite di- rection. The very slow driver, thus. is a cause of inconvenience b0 other users of the made and he

Now as mentioned before, it is not. the food getting into the ulcer that causes the pain, but the strong hydro-. chlorlc acid in the stomach digestivei juice which at a certain definite per- iod after eating gets into the raw ulcer and causes the pain.

This pain disappears with the tak-‘ ing of food or some alkali like baking soda.

Many are the voices telling what Canada must do and must not do in view of the higher tariff boost at Washington. One loud voice says the Canadian tariff must be raised to meet the terrible emergency. Anoth- er proclaims that this would look like retaliation, which would be fool- ishness and would bring worse evils in its train. Timid souls are these, and not worth listening to. Liberal extremists shout that the Yankee tea-ii! will do us no harm, but few believe them. The King Govern- ment's view appears to be that what- ever Washington sends us we must take, lying down under it.

Canada will have railways galore when the extensions now planned are completed. Both the C. N. R. and the C. P. R. are authorised to build branch lines and to purchase existing lines that will aggregate an addition of thousands of miles to their present length of main and auxiliary systems within a period of live years. And yet but a few years ago many were complaining that the Dominion was overburdened with railways.

There is on record the case of a gambler who could go for several days and nights without sleep, provid- ed he was winning. After a. heavy loss, he needed ten to twelve 110"“ sleep to put him in humor to face reality again. _

Thomas Edison, in an interview said:
