Logic is the science of correct reasoning, es- pecially by inference. Mr. Baldwin says in the government and development of the British Em- pire we have never been guided by logic, and argues that if we are too keen on definitions we may split the Empire irretrievahly into frag-i ments. That is sound logic all the same. -

Market value of Prince Edward Island fish- eries advanced to $946,336 in 1936 from $899,- 685 the previous year, the Dominion Bureau of Statistics report. The lobster fishery was of chief importance with a marketed value of $14,- 789 an increase of $9.682. The lobster catch‘ was 59.286 cwt., a decrease of 4.590 cwt., but prices were better, the average price of lobster in shell was $13.10 a _cwt., against $10.85 in 1935 and canned lobster was up to $25.21 a case from $22.11. Next in importance was the cod fishery, followed by herring, smelt and oyster fisheries. The oyster catch fell to 6.742 barrels from 10.014. Total quantity of fish of all kinds caught and landed by frince Edward Island fishermen during 1936 was 248,138 cwt., with a value at the point of landing of $725,417, com- pared with a catch of 208.918 cwt., and a land- ed value of $640,764 in 193,5. The increase in quantity was due chiefly to the larger catches of cod, hakc and cusk and herring.

What of the future of democracy? is a ques- tion on almost everybody}. lips these day's. “Thc peoples of the world, disillusioned by the hor- rors of war,” Mr. Baldwin told the Youth of the Empire, “are all seeking eagerly, earnestly for what they conceive to be the best form of gov- ernment in which they may find happiness and security and develop their talents to their best." So he counselled his hearers to take constant in- terest in government. It is wise counsel. His general appeal touched on a theme that has run

ly. In his last speech in the House of Com- mons he affirmed that democracy is the most difficult form of government which has ever been devised, its difficulty lying, it secured to him, in the fact that it is the only form of gov- ernment in which every citizen can think and does think for himself. His conception of the democratic state, as revealed in that speech, and again in his address at the Albert Hall should help the youth of the Empire to an alcrtncss to rcalize that. as they come to play their part in the work of adult life, their responsibility will be to determine hy what realities they will he led.

Canada's total external trade of 31.638.000.000 1n 1936 restored the Dominion to fifth position among the worlds commercial nations. Of this total. exports accounted for 51.027.902.000. while the favorable balance of more than $400,000,000 was by far the largest in the coun- try's history.

CO-OPERATIVE WARNING

Sli-,—In recent. years widespread interest has been taken throughout Canada in the (lo-operative Move- ment as a solution of economic problems. That fact has attracted .1.e attention of people 1n various part». of the country with a pro- moting interest; people who ap- proach the Gil-operative Movement. not with a view of participating .n the provision of services of social i-alce. but to create r venues for themselves. Usually su so-called co-operatlve enterprises fail 1n. a shcit time. and result 1n financial loss to the public.

At a recent meeting of the Na- tiunal Executive of this Union I was instructed to invite the Press, in thc public interest, t0 publish a warning against such exploitation, and to call its attention to a reso- lution passed on the subject at the Canadian Co-operatlve Congress 19313. Therein the various govern- ments of Canada were urged “to scrutinise w'th care all applications for incorporation of co-operatlve societies with the view t-o being sat- isfied the same are of bona fide- constimer or producer origin." In several provinces the governments ‘ vcarcady charged an official with such a duty. and a valuable SPTVICI‘ to the public ‘s being per- fortned in this respect. ,

The above mentioned resolution also warned the publlc "to satisfy zheniselves when approached to be- come members of, or to make 1n- vesltnent, inucorporations claiming

l to be co-opei-ative that they are so

in _fact. that ls to say of consumer or producer origin and under effec- tive democratic control." I am. Sir. etc, GEORGE KEEN . General Secretary The cn-operatve Union of Canada, Brantford. Ont... May 20th. 1937.

Sin-Many song" have been written about the golden sunset, and as the long evenings come to a close there is always something wonderful ln the sunset. 1f we would stand by the seaside those evenings. and gaze to the western horizon and watch the sun set. and fade we would see there a bleeding pnsion. We would see a great. golden sun that 0n 11-5 jﬂllfney looked down on a sin cur-ed world. that, great ball of glittering light that, from its high perch. mllllons of miles above us looks down on a world full of hatred world full of false gocl- and wise men who are culling out. "If thou be Christ come down we defy you to come." Is it any wonder that. this beautiful sun that only a few hours before had risen so glorious l- now a bleeding ball, weeping for our sins.

We would see back down the road of llfe in that. sunset. We would see our youth. school days, college days; see oursefves leaving college for the last. time as the door closes behind u" forever; the eorss roads of life. the parting with sweethearts and friends as we went our different ways. These are the things that come to mind as we gaze at that. fading passion. Father and mother, brother and sister whose graves may be green in this or other lands will smile 1n that. vision before our eyes.

S0 .10 any of those spring even- ings alone and watch for yoursel? the passion of the golden sunset. See for yourself that beautiful sun change t0 a sea of tears, remlnd- lug us that. Heaven ls weeping for the sins of this world. See for yourelf memory lane as the sun's fading passion sinks lnt-o that bottomless sea or eternity.

A QUESTION 0F CIVIC LAW

Sir-I noticed in one of your ls- sues last week that. a new ruling has been given in regard to muni- cipal law. The Stlpendlary Magis- trate of Summerslde has given his opinion that so far as that town ls concerned the Councll wlll not be permitted to budget for a def- lclt. The Councll must. make up its estimates as to the amount ne- cessary to provide for all ordin- ary expenditure Including flxed charges and then when the assess- ment ls known, levy its rate of taxation awcvrdlngly so as to pay as you go. ‘ " '“

In giving this oplnlon to the Councll the chairman of the ﬂn- ance committee. stated that. the estimates could not be reduced so the only other alternative was t-o increase the rate of taxation to balance the budget. That certain- ly ls a common sense method of transacting munlclpal business and l! Summerslcle ls compelled to ad- opt such a course then why not. Charlottetmtm? It. seems t-o me that in Ontario municipalities are bound by the same law. There the rate of taxatlon 1s not a flxed an- nual rate but lt varies to sult the circumstances of each year and the rate may thus be n few mills more or a few mllls less this year than last.

ARE YOU A NERVOUS DYSPEPTIC

Ahigh executive of an Inter- national corporation had risen to his high position because of his great ability a; a salesman. He had won their ‘"but'.on“ (best salesman) a number of timesf He was sent to each and every branch of the organization to put more "life" Info the office executives and factory superintendents. His stay in each place was from six 1.0 eight weeks.

In tead of leaving each organiz- ation alert. inspired, and on their .

toes, he left the majoi-uy with what. was called “nervous indig- estion".

Aivhi! himself suffered with nerv- ous indigestion it. might almost. be lh°l18ht that; this ailment. was "631011315". so many of the ex- ecutives developed it during his stat-in their city and some of them continued to suffer with it for some week‘ after he had departed.

What was behind all this “nerv- ous indigestion" in this individual. the symptoms of which developed ‘ 1n tho-e who were in a sense "under", him? ‘ l

_Nervous indigestion is not. a . disease or an ailment in itself. but , 8 swup 0f "symptoms" caused by , leneness, by anxiety, by even a desire b0 fulfil ones ambitions. | Ancl where formerly 1t was thought that only ""n_crvo11s“ individuals could suffer with nervous lndlg- Bil-IOU. now physicians are finding that practically any of us put un- der nervous or emotional strain can develop the symptoms.

Dr. Edwin A. Cameron article "Are You a Dyspeptlc?" in Hygeia.

in an Nervous says that

- ECOHOmlc problem", fear of loss o!

position 0r work, mental fatigue from work done under strain and pressure. insufficient rest. improper habits in eating and chronic con- stipation are all factors which may foster the development. of nervotu lndlgesllon."

Just as calmness or poise, n rested body and mind. can enjoy the sight of food. start dlgewive- 1111095 ﬂowing. and stimulate movement in the intestine to rld it of wastes. so can a. tensed body and mind actually stop or slow up the digestlve juices and movement. in the intestine. Then follows lack. of appetite, a "slcky" feeling. gas pressure. sometimes diarrhoea but more often constip- ation.

The point then for all of us ls that if we are to be free from ner- vous indigestion we must learn to be calm ln mind and relaxed ln body when we eat. If calmness and re- laxation are lmposlble because of our worries or anxieties, then we should do without eating at that; lame or eat a very light. “digest- lble“ meal.

ANOTHER DREDGE ACCIDENT

Sim-Another accident. on D. P. W. Dredge No. 9 ls reported as hav- lng occurred last. week, making it. necessary to rush repairs over the weekend. Blame ‘s placed on the breaking of the large steel hauser IIIDDOPUHQ the dredge bucket, which allowed the arm to swng tn- ward. strlklng a metal derrick which fell on the roof of the super- structure.

Whatever the cause, lt ls surely the first duty of the authorities to ho :1 an investigation into the accl- dent. It wlll be recalled that. tn 1923 the same dredge, under the same management, was badly damaged ln .\n accident at Bouthport, and ngnln last year at St. Mary's Bay a fntal tragedy occurred through an accident on tbs dredge.
