SATURDAY' FHRUARY " '9'°' ' Edward Island is now on the eve of

The British Empire, ie, we are

gravely told, preparing for war with Germany. The preparations are on auch a gigantic scale that when the war comes, if it does come, the des- truction of life and property may Ls expected to fulfil the most sanguiue- or sanguiuary-hopes of the foulest fiend that gloats over the miaeries of mortals. It will, for the time being convert n very large section of this peaceful, prosperous world into a veritable bell and will leave its im- press, ill maimed and distorted mor- tals, on future generations. Canada is being urged to contribute thirty- five million dollars to the success of the holocaust.

Many are asking why this thing

should take place and nobody knows; nobody can say why. €X¢€P¢ that Germany is building dreadnaughts and must therefore be planning an in- vasion ot l-Jnglnnd. And so we are feverishly, hastily, madly building our ships and our guns to prellafd for the threatened invasion.

Now while the cause of such a cat-

astrophe is unknown and unknowshle there are some things that are known, that can be demonstrated with mathematical accuracy, and that ought to be carefully considered in connection with the preparations. During"`tli`e 'whole of the fiscal year ending March 31st, 1912, CanadB'B exports to Germany amounted in round numbers to three and a half million dollars. During the period from March 31st to the close of nav- igation on the St. Lawrence our ex- ports to Germany amounted to ten and a half millions. The phenomenal

increase is due to two causes, the

~ lessening of taritl restrictions in

owing upon the end of the taritl

war, and the growing dependence of

Germany on toreisli lources for her food supply. This dependence is bound to increase with the years and as a consequence Germany may soon lbs expected to equal Britain ee a mar- ket for food stuils. So much lor the contribution of thirty-five million dollars to fight Germany.

In addition to this Germany has

'for years been Britaln's ` most im- portant foreign customer. Without her trade with Britain it is doubtful if Germany could exist, certainly she would be infinitely poorer without it and Britain would be very much the poorer without Germany's trade. In a few years, if normal conditions continue, Germany will rank next to Britain and the United States as a market for Canada’s exports.

This is the country we are prepar-

ing to fight, that Greet Britain is supposed to be preparing to H5111! What proportion of the sanepeople of Britain and Germany, think you, gentle reader, is seriously expecting this Armageddon? what proportion ls personally interested in promoting such a war? What proportion of the people, not ol Britain and Germany alone but of the whole civilized world would regard such a war as the blackest blot on the stained pages of history?

If our newspapers, our parliaments,

and our chumhes placed more em- phasis upon the growing trade, the increasing interdependence, the mut- ual friendship between Germany and Britain and her colonies and less \1l>- on the probability of war and the preparation for it, the world's stag- gering iaith in the reality and hon- esty of Christian profession would be greatly strengthened and the proba-

bility of such a war greatly diminish-

thousand people were driven from the province between the census of 1901 and that of 1911. Never satisfied with existing conditions, their con- tinual fault finding became a verit- able contagion and spread discontent and dissatisfaction among all who came in contact with them. Had they quit the country themselves it would have been a merciful riddance. Had they gone west they would have been drummad out of the country for the west has no place for ll knocker. There they are bent on building up the country and everybody is a booster.

Besides being a contemptlble habit,

knocking is an egregiously asinine oc- cupation because every knock to the country or to the community is a knock to the knocker himself. Take a few typical cases.

A man sells his farm at a figure

which, compared with farm values oi a few years ago, appears large. The knocker, jealous of his neighbor’s good fortune, immediately lifts up his asinine voice and cries, in the hearing of the purchaser too, that the price is exorbitant, the farm i is not worth it, the purchaser is simply being robbed. Instead of rejoicing at ills neighbor’s good fortune, instead of realizing that an advanced price for his neigbbor’s farm means an advance in the value of every farm in the neighborhood, he, through sheer littleness of soul, must, if possible, prevent the benefit to his neighbor.

This variety of knockers is so com-

lnon in some sections that a man wishing to sell his farm or an animal oil his farm must conduct his negot- iations with thc strictest privacy to prevent the knocker from gettinghis serpent tongue into the deal and

spoiling it.. This is che vnrlccy than looks with

jealous eyes upon thc growing pros- perlty of his neighbor. A man, by hard and intelligently directed work builds “D s business out of nothing. While he continues to be nothing, while he remains picturesquely poor he is tolerated. When he be- gins to enlarge his premises and to

.___ *~ Millions are to be spent here within

the next few years; millions are now investod in the fox business which has turned the-eyes oi the world in our direction; millions are being spent in developing the cities in our sister provinces which are our near- est market. The man who fails to see in these things a coming boom, who turns green at the thought of some- body elss making more out of it than he will, should leave the country quietly and make room for those who are looking for a rich, healthy and prosperous country to live in.

* NOTES.

'A gentleman who recently returned

from a trip to Western Canada re- marked that one of the drawbacks to an otherwise exceedingly pleasant journey was the fact that in seven out of ten places stopped at en route it was not: safe to take a drink of cold water because ot either the pre- valence of typhoid and other water diseases or of the presence of nskall in the water. Cold water is not us- ually regarded as a luxury but it is one of the necessaries _of life and the country or city that cannot offer its visitors e. drink of absolutely safe water is poor in one oi the greatest assets. Prince Edward Island cannot perhaps, legitimately, offer its guests strong drink but it can oder what is much more highly prized even by drinkers, a drink of absolutely pure cold water.

ADDRESS.

Following is the address presented

to Wilbert McDonald, Charlottetown, as referred to in yesterday’s Guardi- an:

Chairman & Rev. Fathers:-I have

been called upon tonight by inquest, to make thc presentation address for the members of the bowling leage of the League of the Cross to Wilbcrt McDonald. While I feel that this is a great honor I may also add that it has its sad and pathetic side. Mr. McDonald, I know I am voicing the sentiments of the members ol the League of the Cross, when I say that we rejoice ill the fact that fortune has smiled on you and we know that the honorable position that has been tendered to you -by the greatest little government in the whole world was tendered to you with the knowledge that you were competent and had the ability to fill the position. It is with pride that we the members of the League of the Cross and also the sons of denr old Prince Edward Is- land arc able to add one more name to the long list of sons and daugh- ters of the Garden of the Gulf who have torn themselves away from their homes, fliends and happy associa- tions to till honorable positions in many parts-of the world.

While we know that this step on

your part is only one of the step- ping stones to the success you so richly deserve, for as we look back over the past we see in you the ideal young man, and cven in the sadness of your departure we are more than consoled by the fact that it is your own personal life and conduct that brings you this reward. To tell you, that we the members of the League will miss you is only half telling the story, words utterly fail me in try- ing to ezprcss the sorrow we will all feel in losing one oi our most esteem- ed members. And yet mingled with our sorrow is joy and gladness and best wishes for your future. And now Mr. McDonald in consideration oi the high esteem in`which you are held by the members of the League of the Cross I have the honor in behalf of the members to present you with this little travelling companion. We feel that it will bring back to you in your new ileld of labor visions of the League, the' good fathers who watched over you and advised you in the tender years of your life and also tho many pleasant months that we, all of us, have anloyed together. I wish to tender you in behalf ofthe league in connection with this little

for the sincere and active part you have taken and the grand work you have done in the upbuilding of the

you great success and a sale journ- ey. '
