The Young Men's Christian Association is designed to promote the spiritual, social, intel- lectual and physical welfare of young men. Our local Association has been doing this with marked success for many, many years, and is ltill pursuing the tenor of its way under an unusually able and accomplished Secretary, to nay nothing of the fine body of Directors un- der whose guidance he operates. There is a tendency to judge the work of such organiza- tions by statistics. 'l'l1ot1gh the “ "’ can pro- duce these to the satisfaction of every hard- heatled business matrftllat is not the standard by which its work should be gauged.

It means that such a league is needed because forces mxtkitrg for war, disorder and unsound governmt-irt are too active for the health of the cottntry. The Minister of justice is in a posi- tion to know what is going 011. Obviously there are two ways of meeting a situation of this kind. One is by the use of force and re- pression, the method of Hitler, Mussolini and Stalin, but not of democracy. The other is that proposed by I\lr.

PBOHIIBITION A FOOTBALL

SlrrIn the Patriot last even- ing 1 read with some surprise the

statement of Premier Campbell 1n’

the legislature that “in the elec- tlon of IQZTI-‘mhibltlon had been made a political football and this was a. fatal mistake".

I was one of those who in the e- lectlon of 1927 did what I could t0 retain Prohibition. ‘Was I making a political footlball of the question, and was it 11 fatal mistake on my part? It sqrms to me" Mr. Cump- bell had better be a little more ac- curate ln his statements. If he meant. to say that Government Sale of liquor was made an issue and that; lt. was a fatal mistake on the part of its advocates, all will agree. To say that Prohibition was

made a political football and thatj

such was a. fatal nrlstalke is the

very reverse of the truth, at least‘

so far as those were concerned who voted against their ovwn party to maintain Prohibition. Never was a greater moral issue gesented to our people. We who k part and helped maintain 1t: decline to be branded as political footballers. The Conservative party did not make Prohibition a football. They adopted as a political platform Government Control or Govern- ment. Sale. They were met. with a moral issue, the maintenance of Prohibition.

According to the further state- ment. from the Premier regarding the requests he has received for and against Prohtbltlon the Premier would appear to be carefully ad- justing the political balances.

As to the Premier's statement that‘. efforts have been made by ‘ioth political parties to keep the ‘ssue away from party politics, I do not wish to charge the Premier with making a political football of Prohibition when he removed from a supposedly independent Commis- sion and into his own hands the nntlre administration 0t the Act. hut hls doing so can hardly be said to bring about a. more independent administration.

WHO ARE THE TRAITORS?

Shy-Mr. Angus MacPhee, MJ... A., ls 1n the secrets of the inside caucus. He should‘ be, and probably is an authority upon the attitude of his colleagues upon pulbllc issues.

He 2's reported as follows:-

“I hav been asked mtmy times what ls the attitude of the Gov- crnmcnt-"Are you going to throw away Prohlbitlon and give us Gov- Ollll-AQHL Control whether lt ls right or wpong?" One man said. “1 believe you have about eighteen members who would vote. for Gov- ernment Control." “I said AS FAR AS I KNOW I think you could tum ll; the other wray."

There ls no disputing the infer- ence of this. “A5 far as I know" there are twelve members who would vote for Government Con- trol, per Mr. MacPhee.

Every one of the thirty ran their elections, upon the most positive platform of “Enforcement of Pro- hibition", 1n some cases promising 100 per cent, every one received large temperance support on these pledges, Anti it. now ceve’o"s that. there were about. ten o‘ these de- ceiving the electors, per Mr. Mac- Phee.

Now, Sir, an open statement such as this throws suspclon upon the whole thirty. Who can tell whom to count amongst the eighteen for Prohibition and the twelve for Government Control? Isn't. ti’. up to Mr. MaoPhee to single out: the sheep from the goats and enlighten the publlc as to who are the black sheep: It ts clue to the whlt- ened eighteen that: they be clear- ed from strsplclon. and if.’ ls due to the public to know whom are the twelve who betrayed them.

Bur-May I have space 1n your paper for much thatlslnmymtnd and on my heart.

Something must. b6 CORN l! P- E- Island is going to save he: boy!

Devil”. Many broken heart-s and homes in store If nothing is going to be done to stop the course of things today. I refer particularly to our temperance question: “Men of God why stand ye idle". Awake thou that sleepest, before too late. Where are Women's Institutes, our W.C.T.U.'s that. they are allowlng everything to be done to rip-hold the liquor traffic and doing it in such a. camouﬂaged way that many people are led to believe that. it: ls being changed for the better. " Do Not. be Fooled, Moth- em"!

Do not be fooled business men! The booze business ls a. cash bust- ness, and there is not. money for both, so why let business go? If money ls spent: for booze you will have to clothe, educate the drunkardk child and wife.

Why is any man 1n any office allowed to draw two or three salaries, or allowed the free rein of any one thing that means so much to many homes as our Pre- mler ls now doing. Add his salaries and flnd out. for yourselves. Do not. take any mac's word for it. He ls not capable of doing so

of his nerves, therefore how could he control such a. serlmm question as ls now before the people of PEI/t’

Our people have shown time and'time again what we want. Tlrelr promises and platform were such that the Liberals would see to it_t.hat all should be done to stamp out. the evil. Has it rung true? I tnlk again has it run;- ti-ue? Oh you men who are your brothers keepers can you sit. idly by and not have a sting o1 con- science? You men who clalm to be followers of Christ have you - come too hardened and so selfls and so steeped in politics that nothing “matters to you?" ’I‘ruly every man shall give an account of his. stewardship to God.

I say, arouse before too late! Why let one man with little ex- perlence have full swing? How can Premier Campbell as Temper- ance leader, give a full account of the happenings as he is not to be found halt of the time. People time and time again wish to Inter- vlew hlm and no one knows where he ls. Why ask him for a. full re- port? A man of all trades is master of none and: will not be taught. If the men have failed what about our Mothers and wo- men of this fair land?

Where are ourW.C.T.U.’s? What‘. are they for, a political club to hide the sins of their husbands and forestall any thing that may interfere wlth the Government? They truly have been hiding be- hlnc! their wlves manouvres ln other words (slang) their skirts. Our Women's Institutes. I make an appeal through your organiza- tlon to stem the tlcle, throw aside all politics, think only 01 your sons turd your son's children, and our responsibility as "Mothers".

COMPOSITION AND OTHER SCHOOL STUDIES

Slaw-After reading the letter of “An Old Teacher" tn the Guardian of April 7, such paralysis seized my pen that; I was unable to write at all for several hours! Here was I, far, far beyond the age of 8th or 9th year pupils, and I was still seeking to “acquire fluency and eare, and

QUIET WORK

One lesson, Nature, let. me learn of thee,

One lesson which ln every wind is blown,

One lesson of two duties kept at one

Though the loud world proclaim their enmlty—

Of toll unsevered from tranquility; Of labor, that l.tr. lasting fruit out.-
