VICTORIA DAY.

Monday next, Victoria Day, no

issue of The Guardim will be made.

From the year 1837 till the year

1901 the day was honored as the birthday of the reigning Queen Vic- toria.

With over-increasing loyalty, fervor

and admiration the people of the British Empire observed this day un- til on January 22, 1901 the G00d Queen passed to her reward.

King Edward on his accession to the throne as hir successor, moved b_v a fine spirit of tilial devotion to hisheloved Mother, and recognising the love and reverence of the people for her, requested thit her birthday instead of his own should he con' tinued in honor as it was before her death.

Thus it came about that tho birth-

day of Victoria has been held in growing honor 'during seventy-t'wo years past, and will be continued :luring the years to come.

Victoria Day was declared hy the

Parliament of Canada to be a stat- uary holiday, and it has also receiv- ed llke legal distinctfion in other parts of the British Empire.

BRITAIN AND CANADA.

There is one leaf from the Ameri-

can nook' that Canadians might bor~ row with profit, the leaf fmt teaches how to instill patriotism into the hearts of the' children of alien par- ents. For the teachers in the pub- lic schools in Canada here is the grand opportunity. Teach them they are c tizens of the greatest Empire the world has ever known. Teach them that the deeds done and the re-‘ suits gained by the British race stand without a parallel in the his tory of the world. The empires of the Persian Cyrus, or of Rome or oi

Alexander are nought in compasison ,

Leading Tackle .\Ian.

Teach them that Britain's heroes an

oes are Brltain's- heroes and last. 'bail not least, teach them that they can# not live on the traditions of the mighty past, but that they must be up and doing, and be keenly on- the alert if't1hey wish to hold that glori- ous heritage of which they are heirs. Train the _child-ren to realize that eternal vigilance i_s the price of lib- erty, indeed. _Train vhem- to agar. for the Empire; t:es,el\.tl_)em that if the

can the

need arises no greater 'qr come to them than to, dfflar

empire. - _ '

BOREDOM. ' \

Boredom comes from within and not frorii without. For a man or woman to be perpetually expressing a dread of 'oeing bored is merely an~ other method of explaining to the world 8 profound contempt: for his or her own mental capacities. In pro- tecting that they cannot abide the idea of staying in this or that place lor more than two or three days to-` gether, or are unable to dine with the So-and~Sos without physical col lapse, or in short , cannot be con tent to be merely alive and in pos

atted to grapple with the_probleme of our modern world. These are, in my opinion, .lhortand shallow views. Canada is-not yet suffering from the excess of book-learning. On the con- trary. the imagination oi our people is starved, and their outlook on life narrowed, ily the want of knowledge which might be gained from books." Such_ie the opinion of one living in the centre of Canadian life, and best able to judge truly, owing to the numerous samples from, all sections with whom he in-zbrought in ¢on¢u0t:’f"

session of their faculties, 'they only proclaim that they consider their' faculties very poor possessions. The man whose mental faculties are real- ly worth consideration is able to srl tract entertainment from what to luller brains appears the slowest business in the world. The weaker- minded man who laments to his friend that You're such a lucky dog, vou never get bored, pays his friend 1 compliment, but does not appear to realize what a poor figure he cuts himself. To such as are conscious of! boredom, we would earnestly recom-‘ 'nenii the following remarks of Dean Walton, of McGill Universityi-
