Nevertheless it is generally admitted the roads, as a whole, are; not in a fit condition for heavy traffic. There was little frost in the ground this winter, practically with the disappearance of the snow the roads were in a quagmire, and the sun and winds quickly suc- ceedcd in drying them. If the roads had been closcd against heavy traffic for a fortnight or three weeks little damage would have been done, but now reports from different parts of the country indicate considerable work will he necessary to repair damage.

TREATY , the increased rate, New Zealand export butter here at a profit. At the special session of Parlia- ment in i930, the Bennett Govern- ment dealt the New Zealand butter trade its death blow by increasing the duty to eight cents s. pound. In the subsequent negotiations between the two countries, the Canadian Government was able to reduce this rate for bargaining purposes while still retaining a. safe measure of protection. Seasonal importation of other agricultural commodities from New Zealand have been allowed in exchange for valuable tariff con- cessions in the New Zealand mar- ket, while at the spine time the policy of adequately safeguarding the interests of ‘the home producer have been kept steadily in mind. In this way the Bennett. Govern- ment has implemented its pro-elec- tion promise ‘of negotiating a new treaty which who be nu and equitable w bdth It is interesting iu this connec- tiontonotsthatinlflittllelast fullyearinwhichtheKingGov- ernment trade arrangement was in effect, butter constituted 80 per of New zealaud’: total eapcrts to Canada.

Interesting information concern- ing the organization of the ROYII Canadian Mounted Police was 81V‘ en by lion. Mr. Guthrie, Minister of Justice, during committee read- ing of a bill to consolidate the PN- ventive service under the Police in the House of Commons on May 3. Mr. Guthrie said .1... b: coo mem- bers of the preventive force. 350 have been or will be taken over by the Mounted Police. Recomme ids- tions for appointments on a basis of service are submitted by the De- partment of National Revenue, but m, actual appointments are made by the Cuuuuissioner of Police. Generally speaking, married inch are not engaged for police duties. A certain percentage of married men is allowed on the establish- ment, and that percentage is gener- ally filled to the limit. The regula- tions provide that for recruiting purposes only men between twenty- two and twenty-eight years of age, unmarried, are accepted. At Ot- tawa there is a division of the Mounted Police known as “A" Divi- sion where the men are used not so much for police work as for the guarding of buildings, etc. In that division married men arc allowed, and as a consequence applications for it are very numerous. Members cannot, without obtaining permis- sion, get. married and remain on the force and they are not en- titled io obtain that permission un- iil they have been in the service for twelve years. This regulation is dictated lurgcly by the question of expense. A married man receives allowances for his wife and family and he must be provided with fam- ily quarters. There is no permanent place of residence in connection with any unit of the Mounted P0- lice; the forces may be moved around at the will of the Commis- sioner, and it is naturally more dif- ficult and expensive moving mar- ried men with their families. In the case of preventive service men who have not been trans- ferred to the Rural Canadian Mounted Police, and who have con- tributed to the superannuation fund for a number of years, special pro- vision will be made. Mr. Guthrie stated in reply to a question by Mr. A. E. MacLcan that no injustice would be done in these cases, and that the matter has already been arranged. The cost to the Provinces in which law enforcement has been taken over by the Mounted Police is computed at the rate of 81,000 per man. The province of Alberta will pay $225,000 per annum, and will have a. force -fo about 225 men; "‘ katchewan, $250,000; Manitoba an estimated amount of $125,000: Nova Scotia, $125,000. The Minis- ter's memorandum was prepared before the New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island agreements were signed, but he understood the and in Manitoba 2Z5. The total Mounted Police force will number the Mounties throughout Canada under the same efficient adminis- tration as has characterized the or- ganization in earlier days, will un- doubtedly make for progress in law amount for New Brunswick was $125,000. and for Prince Edward Is- land $15,000. In Prince Edward Ia- land there will be fifteen men: in New Brunswick, either 100 or 125; in Nova Scotia, 125; in Manitoba, 120; in Saskatchewan probably 250, 1,060, and the preventive service 300.

The power of the underworld has been attained largely through indiffer- ence on the part of the civilian population. who left the enforce- ment of law and order to public officials. No officer is omnipre- sent, and unless he receives assist- anco from civilians his usefulness is discounted fully fifty percent. This is true not only with major crime but also with petty infrac- tions. If the power of the United States underworld is to be curbed, every good citizen must lend his aid in running down minor as well as major infractions of the laws. An undeniable impression is that there is beauty everywhere. Apart from disease, which is almost unknown in wild nature, apart from unfinished organisms which nature hides away—often so care- fully, apart from various domesti- cated animals and cultivated plants which bear too flagrantly the marks of man's artistically clumsy, though scientifically clever fingers-all organisms are artistic. harmonious, pleasing to the un- prejudiced eye, evoking the aesthe- tic emotion, especiallly when seen in their natural setting. And not only the organisms the ‘ves, but the works of their hands are beautiful-the nest, the web, and the honeycomb and the coral reef, and the bower-birds, bower. Na- ture has given her verdict in favor of beauty—the reward of survival. —J. Arthur Thomson.

They operate merely in self inter- est. America is a slave to public opinion.‘ And blocs are public opinion split up into factions seek- ing to control the patronage and conscience of the country.

Not that the major- ity of people who work indoors need s. large breakfast, because, as a matter of fact a light breakfast taken regularly is really good sense. The point u» be. remembered is that the average individual unless he tales a meal before going to bee, eats his last meal of tne day be- tween 5.30 p. m., and 7.30 p. m. If then he gets his breakfast at the usual hour of 030 a. m. to 8.30 a.m., it is i2 hours at least between the evening meal and breakfast. During that i2 to l4 hours the stomach has been completely emptied of food. and usually the small intestine also. so that there is nothing but the waste of previous meals lying in the waste reservoir, that is the. largo in- testine. " ' As the stomach has had this long rest and is completely empty it is in good condition to take care of any food that is eaten. This is the reason that light but nourishing food should be taken, although you may not feel very hungry in the morning. There is another important point to be remembe ed, and that is that when food enters the stomach it first seems to remain or collect in the upper part, which soon begins to contract or squeeze the food down into middle part of stomach. This squeezing movement continues and sends the food down against the small intestine; the small intes- tine then begins to contract and these contrasting or squeezing im- pulses continue down the small in- testine, down its entire 20 feet of length, until it a aches the large in- testine. What happens than? The large intestine carrying or holding the wastes of previous meals is then timulated to con- and this contracting or wastes . farther .fik AFTER thou more fair: the crash glare domes, the ash, descend, That once was new-built prosperous known; When I shall say, Behold the tides that wash that bend ant on his throne: B) lame: W. ‘Barlow.

The sea, biologists tell us, is the great mother of life, and in its waters are all the elements life re- quires. Most of the world's supply of iodine is in the sea, and iodine has been found valuable as a Pfe- ventive of goitre. It is present in the bodies of fish. The highly-im- portant vitamine D. known for some time to be present in cod liver oil. has been found, in recent research- es, to be distributed throughout the bodies of various fishes. Recently, according to a buletlu issued ‘by the Dom'nion fisheries department, Dr. Harden F. Taylor, one of the leading authoritiu on fisheries research, announ ’ at Ot- tawa that; the copper present in all sea. foods, and particularly in shell- fish, was of great importance in the treatment of anae is. The moral of all this is surely obvious. If one wishes to be pros- perous, he can eat sea foods and save money. If he wishes to be well, he can eat sea foods and conserve his health. If he is interested only in the pleasures of the meut, sea foods offer h'm a pleasant var- iety and a wide range of choice.‘ The Doukhobors b - (Exchange) In Nelson, British Columbia, a hundred and seventeen Doukhobors. among whom were thirty-three wo- men, after strenuous resstance were seized by the police and placed in jail, for engaging in a fanatical re- ligious ploceston minus clothing of any sort.
