The occasion is a fitting one on which to call to mind the great progress which Can- ada has achieved under the British flag. We are still young in nation- hood, still on the threflaold of achievement. Conditions of world wide depression and unemployment. have touched Canada as they have touched all countries, but nowhere gr; the prospects brighter for fu- ture expansion and Prvsreifl. thin in this wide Dominion. Our na- hlral resources, unexcelled by any nation in the world, the character ' and enterprise of our people, all warrant the faith in Canada which has been voiced by statesmen and writers on many occasions. Today being a holiday, there will no doubt be the usual round of out- lngs, fishing parties, picnics, etc. While enjoying the holiday to the lull, it is but fitting that all our citizens should bear in mind the meaning and significance of the an- nlversary. 14 Legacy From Mr. King The announcement by Premier Bennett that Canada has signed 8 new trade treaty with Australia. the terms of which will be announced after the official copies have been exchanged between Ottawa and Canberra, is an eflective answer to those Liberal critics who predicted a permanent disruption of the trade r ‘ “ between the two countries while the Bennett Government re- mained in power. The further an- nouncement, that the Government at Ottawa has under advisement sending a trade emissary to New Zealand in the hope of negotiating an agreement with that Dominion which will be beneficial to both countries, may or may not be re- ceived with rejoicing in Liberal quarters, but it will at least satisfy the people of Canada as to the Bennett Government's good faith. One of the difficulties surrounding a trade pact with New Zealand, the Premier explained, was the import- ation of butter into Canada. This difficulty is entirely due to the tar- ffl tinkering of the Mackenzie King Government. New Zealands huffi- neas towards Canada, 1n the matter of trade, expressed by Premier Forbes to a. Canadian delegation, il- lustrates the danger of disregarding plain economic facts in framing trade arrangements. ‘The Ottawa Journal puts the situation plainly when it says: "The Government of Mr. Mac- kenzie King, looking about for dut- les that it could reduce, hit upon the duty on New Zealand butter. Had they considered the needs and Last week's victory of Ronald Hall Caine, Conservative candidate in the Wavertree by-election in Great Britain, by the ever recorded in the history of the riding is of interest to Canadians because Mr. Calne is a son of the famous novelist and because his defeated opponent represented the Labor Government. Mr. Cains ma- jorlty is 8,645, which compares with a majority of about 3.000 for the Conservatives in the last general election. In that former election_the Liberal candidate polled 11,723 votes as against 13,885 for Mr. Treleavan, the Labor candidate. and as against 16,880 votes for the Conservative candidate of that day. In the pres- ent contest the Liberals remained out of the field in the hope that Mr. ‘Preleavan would win. The result is a. decided reverse for Liberal alliance. In a number of recent by-elections there has been a tremendous falling off in the Labor vote, all of which bodes ill for the Macrlonald Government in the next general election.

An ex- change points out; If we go back to the origin of these war debts we find President Wilson saying that “we stand as partners of noble dem- ocracies." The United States de- claration of war pledged all the re- sources of the country to secure a successful termination of the strug- gle. The law authorizing the loans to the Allies described these loans as “made for the purpose of more effectually providing for the na- tional security and defence", Sen- ator Smoot said that every dollar expended under this measure would be spent for the benefit of the United States. Senator McCumber declared that while the Allies were dying in the trenches the United States should be liberal in putting up money- Senator Kenyon said repayment of the loans should never be demanded. Senator Cummins and Congressman Mann spoke of the loans as a gift to the Allies, who were fighting the battles of the United-States oversea. Other con- gressmen spoke in the same vein. There Is a. growing feeling that the delay in announcement of the date of the provincial election is somewhat akin to the hesitancy which delays the small boy on the edge of the bank from taking his first plunge in the briny. The weather is now becoming warmer and as the plunge has to be taken anyway why not make a jump and have it over? It is said in some quarters that a new danger threatens the potato crop this time in the shape of a worm that attacks the potato set shortly after being planted. It would appear that there are more pests of this kind than are absolutely necessary. Yet we are in the mod- ern swiTn aidwprobably we have as much right to these drawbacks as some of our less fortunate neigh- bors. It will take a. lot of worms to do as much damage as a western dust storm or hall storm or a cy- clone. Now that the school holidays have begun and the streets are gen- erally well filled with children, the necessity of more careful driving will be apparent.

You may be more or less familiar with sun stroke, but never have thought of heat stroke. In sunstroke, as you know, the sun rays are very strong, and under direct exposure the individual col- lapses "‘ iy, with complete loss of consciousness. The skin is usually hot, dry, and flushed, the body tem- perature very high and the pulse full and strong. Rest in a shady place is usually all that is necessary to revive these cases. However where the individual is not under the direct rays of the sun and collapses, it is called a heat stroke. In these cases, the onset ls not sudden but comes on gradually. The skin is not hot, dry, and flush- ed; it is cold, clammy and pale; the pulse is weak. Now while this heat stroke or heat exhaustion as it ls often called, “may be due to the sun rays on the head, it is found among stokers on vessels, among laundry workers, workers in rolling and steel mills, and also persons who are crowded together as sweat shop workers, or those who live in hot ill ventilated, unsanitary rooms, buildings, or bar- racks where direct sunlight is absent." This really means that heat ex- haustion may be due to any condi- tion in which an excess or increased amount "of heat accumulates within the body, and in which the body does not get rid of its wastes pro- perly. The heat of the ai: makes the body processes work faster anyway and thus more heat is manufactured in the body. With this great increase in wastes from this work, and no proper way of getting rid of it by ventilation, baths and so forth, symptoms of heat exhaustion nat- urally follow. Treatment ln-these cases of heat exhaustion consists of rest in bed, with headylevel with rest of body, or very slightly raised, an ice bag to the head, and hot water bottles, or heated bricks, wrapped in flannels, applied to the body. The patient fa then given hot stlmulatingdrinks, hot milk, hot egg nog, bouillon, tea or coffee. If the patient is unable to swallow or is onsclous, then the physic- ian will have to use stimulating drugs by the hyperdermic method to maintain the strength of heart. The ordinary smelling salts-aro- matic spirits of ammonia .:ill often bring the patient around whether from sun stroke of heat exhaustion.

(Toronto Mail and Empire) The remarkable exposure of German war-guilt made in Novem- ber, 1929, by Dr. I-Ierrmann Kan- torowics, a. notable p. r of law at the University of Kiel, Germany, ls now available in translation for English readers. It ls entitled "The Spirit of British Policy and the Myth of the En- a keen appreci “ of the policies and characteristics of the British peoplcvand makes due allowance for differences of racial sentiments. In an introduction he refers to the “,,, in the interests of peace, of removing. misconceptions about England, especially those of German origin “engendered and exploited by those common scourges of England and Germany, the ex- Kalser, Bualow and '.i‘lrpits." He says that the charge that England was encircling Germany was in- vented by the German Government at a time of absolute peace and that it ls necessary, to withdraw the accusation. There is no ques- tion of official withdrawal which would hurt the feelings of a people conscious of their dignity.
