For it is no exaggeration to say that, without the Parliamentary in- quiry launched by Mr. Stevens, and vhich brought about the Royal Cus- toms Commission {lhis $2,370,788 V would have been lost to the treasury. ‘ill’ anyone be disposed to challenge

The truth ls that few acts of any i public man in Canada. or any party in Canada, brought greater public gain than the inquiry into the ad- ministration of our cusoms. It brought about the reorganization‘ of our customs upon more buslncsslikr,

more efficient and more honest llnes. It struck an effective blow for rigid probity in‘ the public service. And it rescued millions that would have been lost to the public treasury.

W! believe. everyone is reading them -wlll.see good reasons for the Op- Doaitlonb insistence on an external audit. They wlll also have n, shrswd suspicion as to why the government refilled it. There are many things that have not been explained. and it is significant that the Premier fre-

Saskafchcwan Government is ‘rak- lug the plunge in June. A general election was not generally expected

was in May. i925, it was due within the next twelve months. There arc sixty-three seals in the Legislature. and at present the Government hold 5i while the Opposition, Conserva- llvc and Farmers, hold l2. As there is no burning question apart from the perennial school controversy tilere is not likely to be any consid- erable charge in the representation. The Dunning election machine still holds sway. and practically every constituency is "tied" to that organi- zation. The population is largely foreign, the vote of which Dunning manlpulaled during all his regime, and placed at the disposal of Prem- ier King when he was out in lhe cold in every other Province in Canada.

The present Premier of Sﬂkatche- wan is the Hon. Jas. G. Gardiner a farmer who uras born in ‘Farquhar, Ontario. ,forty-six years ago. In ad- dition to being Premier he is Min- istcr of Education, and enjoys a sal- ary of $9,000 as Premier, $7,200 as Minister of Education. and $2,000 as sessional indemnity. So with $18,200 a; annual salary, let alone travel- ling expenses, he does not need to worry much whether fanning pays or not. There are seven portfolios in the Government constituted at pres- ent as follows:

Hon. James G. Gardiner. L.L.D.. Premier; President of Council; Min- ster of Education.

Hon. S. J. Lotta, Provincial Secre- tary; Minister of Municipal Affairs; and Minister in Charge of the King's Printer, the Bureau of Publications, Tile Loan Company's Act, and The Trust Company Act.

Hon. C. M. Hamilton, Minister of Agriculture; and Minister in Charge of the Clllld Welfare Act, 1027. and the Old Age PcnsionsAct, 1928. Hon. J. M. Ullrich, M. D.. Minister of Public Works; and Minisler of Public Health. '

Hon. W. J. Patterson, Provincial ‘treasurer; ltflnistcr of Telephones and Telegraphs: and Minister 1n Charge of The Fire Prevention Act. the Prairie and Forest Fires Act, and Tile Saskatchewan Insurance Act. Hop. Thos. C. Davis, K. C., Attor- lacy-General.

Hon. George Spence, Minister of Highways; lifinister of Railways, La- bour and Industries.

It will be recalled that Hon. Mr. Dunning rcsigned the Premiership cf Saskatchewan in February 1926, Lo enter thc Mackenzie King Govern- ment as Minister of "Railways and Elcctionslle being looked upon as an astute politician and ‘lhe Master- mind of the Saskatchewan Liberal machine. Although now in Dominion politics his ability and services are siill at the disposal of his successor and no doubt the combined efforts ni the Dominion and Local ma- chines will ensure a. safe return of the Gardiner Government.

With reference to the Public Ac- counts Ccmnrlttecs report the Pat- riot has the following cumbersome explanation of how matfers stand. on explanation which it seems im- possible to improve upon or to ex- plain.

Wkat the CDpTSli-iﬂfl leader did say. in effect. after lleanng Hall. M". Butler read the rcpcrt of the pub‘? accounts commit-ca. "was that though the government had borrow- r~d $270,000 they had, according to the report. increased the liabilities by only about. $3.000. He than pro,- cecdcd to poke fun at the govern- menl/s expense s-atlng that this re- port should be framed, that the mem- bcrs of the committee reporting were financial wizards. and so on.

Mr, Stewart was no doubt inadvert- ently led into error by believing there was a pause after $3789.41 in lhe above report in the following sen- tcrlce:

"The increase of the liabilities of the province is $3789.41 less, than that shown_in the condensed stre- ment on page 8 of the provincial auditor's report."

In lhlg connection lt may be slat- ed that the Provincial Auditor takes exception to the statement that "it is his work the External Auditors are appointed to probe and report upon." Of course the dulosof the External Auditors are usually act forth in the order-ln-councll ap- pointing them and ' ‘ ’ the u- certalnlng of the actual lndelLtedness of the Province, the examiningand certifying lo the existence of the ae- curltieg comprising the linking funds and the giving of any other infor- mation respecting the finances which may be requested by the Govern- ment. Although the External Audit- ors do not aclually traverse the work oi the Provincial auditor their dut- ies are of the nature of a committee of investigation to satisfy the Gov- ca ‘ and Legislature as lo the actual ﬁnancial standing of the Province.» \ »

IEAUIIING CHILDREN TO STAND ERECT

It was my privilege for a number of years to lecture to teachers in train- ing who were qualifying as high ischool‘ and public school teachers.

I tried to Rive them a. few facts in anatomy and physiology and some suggestions regarding the care and training of the body.

In talking about securing the erect carriage of the body for their stud- ents and for themselves, I emphasiz- thc value of developing the abdomin- al muscles.

I pointed out that the more de- velopment these muscles received ‘the smaller the waist would be. In fact Sandow, the world's strongest nlall, had a waist that was only one inch larger than his thigh.

I pointed out further that although the development of the upper back muscles, as in the breast stroke in swimming, would pull the shoulders back and help to correct round shoul- ders, the development of the abdominal muscles was more important, as the drawing in of the abdomen automat- ically pushed the chest forward and the shoulders back. Now the point back of all this is that you and 1 should remember that when we were made it was intended that the weight of the body should come on the bones. The bones of the spinal column should sustain the weight of the body or hold us erect.

What happens if you do not stand erect?

The weight of the front of the body pulls your spinal column forward, and the ligaments, that bind your oorles together, get u good deal of the weight _throwll On them; hence the pain in the back, so frequently suffered. This pain can be in the neck, in the up- per back, in the lower backj or right down where the end bone of tllc spine Joins the two large hip bones,

Your muscles get tired holding up a weight. that should have been held up by the bones of the spine, not by the soft tissues.

As you know, any exercise that brings the thighs on abdomen or ab- domen on thighs. knces straight, will develop the abdominal muscles.

Lying ontlle back and raising the legs with the knees straight.

Trying to touch your toes with your ﬁngers, knees straight.

Keeping abdomen drawn in when you are sitting, standing, or walking. iwlll help to keep your spin;- straight and prevent pain in the back.

The Greatest Guessing Game

Condensed from The Anal-loan lhgailno-Edward r. Roberts.

Fashion is the name of the great- rst game on ‘earth-a. perennial jﬂmble in which bigger fortunes are won and lost than over the green mbles of Monte Carlo.

The World War brought more lvreeping changes in women's fash- ions than ever occurred before in lhe same length of time. The nllllions ‘oi girls who went forth to drive motor wagons, keep military stores. and do a hundred jobs behind the llnes found out that, for them, whalcbone corsets and long skirts were about as suitable as mall armor would have been for their brothers in ihc trenches. In any event, the new fashion was decided for them by the military authorities, who were much too busy to bother about Victorian ideas of modesty-

There is a, general idea that all fashions originate in Paris, where ulystel-lous individuals decide from time to time what. is style and what is not. There is some truth in the idea. Fashions do originate in Paris in the sense that in line, design, and color the great French Oouturiers are the world's acknowledged mus- tcrs, but these masters of artistry are far indeed from being dictators of style, They are all engaged in a guessing game which would drive the average American business man into a lunatic asylum. The best guessers wins fortunes and the unlucky ones go to work for the winners.

The big prizes in the great game are awarded every spring and fall. In February and August are the “opcnillgs" at which the “Euesscs" are paraded after six months‘ fev- erish and deeply secretive labor. During all that time designers have been toiling in the locked and guard ed ateliers, working out costumes on ideas painfully gleaned from sl hun- dred sources. Tile glorlus riches of the museums of Paris are ransacked. Bil. by bit. the design is built up from the fragments of a dozen civiliza- tions, the color harmonies of long dead and nameless artists. when the designs- are completed. the prettiest and shaplicst maniklns of France will don them and parade through the showrooms of Paris, the racetrack of Auleuile and Long- champ, the esplunades of Cannes. Blarritz, Dgauvllle, and Monte Carlo. llcir creators will await anxiously he verdict-acceptance and fortune. ejection and possible ruin. Of course, the guessers db not pin all their hopes on a single entry. Each house prepares scores of models, for if even 18 out of twenty fall , two quay sweep the boards. who decides? If any one could wnswer the question the G would be en out or gamble. There are a ll-‘ndful of well-known society lead- crs, all of whom have varying in- fiuoncc, but every one of them ‘ plight select n model without more : than moderate results in general popularity. Then there are other ladies, laldics ‘ who rule over a society preponder- lmtly lllale. Time was when the Ccurt o.’ France and all the fashion- Izbc society of Europe waited breath- lcssly f0 find out what the King's mlstrcrs wore at the last state ball. Time was WllCll a Madame dc Pom- fllldfllll‘ colfll introduce a new word into tllc dliiunrics by‘ changing the style cf her hairdressing, or a Louise d2 ill Valllsre could apparell cil the virtuous maidens of Europe ‘n clinging robes. The King's have de- parted, but the courtesan: remain. It may be shocking, but it is never- thelcns true, that the naughty lad- ies of Patlr: com: Qossr to being the "Ybltffﬁ of fashion than any other; ‘llflucnce lint could be named. l

"Dresses must come down ” has been the slogan or‘ the Paris manu- l facturcs for at least two years now. The C-outurics of Paris have no great concern with modesty. but they are deeply interested in the silk and cotton fabric industries. Someone mice said that "an inch off a China- man's shirt or added to a woman's dress meant the difference between ruin and prosperity for the textile industry." Nevertheless there ls no indication that dresses are coming down.

Automobiles were largely respon- sible for small hats, but aviation gave them the shape of tho rclmet. This vogue might have been predictable, but who could have foretold that the opening of King Tut's tomb would have sent»: cruc for Egyptian cloth around the world?

When President Hardin: was ln- augurated, Mrs. Harding wore a dress of a rather unusual shade of blue, and for a year, at least, “Hard- ing Blue" was supreme in America.

lmes and it takes a bushel of cent- imes to make a dollar in these days. Thousands of American buyers, rep- resenting every important depart- ment store in the United States. sail for Paris three or foul‘ time! a year. Their Purchases run into mil- , lions of dollars, but a point that i511 little understood is that they BUY" models, not stocks. . 1

‘Th0 curious anomaly exists that: while French taste in line and design ,1 governs the.- world c1‘ women, French l taste in the ecslunle itself differs j sharply from American taste. Vcryi few French garments are sold in! American stores. They are imported i

solely as models from which the American manufacturers work. A i dozen Purls creations may contribute to an American composite. A sleeve], is taken from this dress. It b" 0f y embroidery from that, o. neck line‘ from a. third. and so on.
