Mining, until the present Govern- illLIlL came into power, had been run on a haphazard, speculative principle, owners of mineral pro- ciucing areas holding their proper- ties undeveloped and mainly for speculative purposes. This system has been abolished, and now the owners or lessors of mining proper- ty are obliged to develop their hold- lngs within a reasonable time or have the properties confiscated. The finances of the Province also have been placed upon a sound basis —after many years of reckless ex- travagance and evident incompet- ence by their predecessors. The progress of the campaign will be watched with interest by sis- ter provinces. CANADA IIONORED. HE election of Premier W. L. Mac- kenzie King to the vice-presi- dency of the League of Nations, and the appointment of a number of other Canadians on various commit- tees, is a signal honor to Canadar [and a recognition of its membership 1 in the League. Over forty of the principal nations of the world are united in the ef- fort to outlaw war as a means of settlement in international disputes. The civilized world will look with hope upon this gesture, and will pray for its success. Whether it will mean the final abolition of interna- tional wars or not remains to be seen. The sentiment oi civilization is in favor of peace, and in this sentiment Canada joins. The League of Nations Society in Canada will do much to strengthen the peace proposals and every pro- vince should have its branch of this Society. The Rt. Hon. George E. Foster is president of the League of Nations Society in Canada, and is soliciting membership in every sec- tion of the country. The League of Nations will undoubtedly bestrsng- thened in its laudable efforts by the organization of branches of this So- ciety throughout Canada. Every civillzed nation in the world has its League of Nations Society, and doubtless this is in accord with the hope of the great nations which are now endeavoring to bring about DB- 118500. OVEIIWOBKED MINISTERS. illness and possible resigna- i tlon of Sir Austin Chamberlain, British Foreign Secretaryl‘ directs attention to the excessive strain in- cident to the conduct of British State aflairs. The forthcoming re- tirement of Rt. Hon. W. C. Bridge- man, First Lord of the Admiralty, the recent illness of Winston Chur- chill, Chancellor of the Exchequer, and of Lord Cushendon. ‘ te the evident strain under which Brit- ish statesmen are spending their time. ' Posplbly our Canadian and even own province have taken well-earn- ed vacations-some to Europf- 11m‘ ers to different parts of Oil!‘ 0W" Dominion. Also the ‘ifgderal Cab- inet Ministers are pracflcaily all off on health-seeking tours abroad or at home. Whether these holiday trips have been intended to undo the eflects of recent strains or in anticipation of the worst yet to some, it might be diflicult to determine. In any case, as matters now stand, unless the precautions being taken by our ministers become too strenuous, there seems every prospect that any serious breakdowns are likely to be avoided. , ——-—-o-e->~"———— ANOTHER REMINDER. THE time-dishonored habit ofcer- .tain men and women of making a bolt for their wraps belongings, and even of starting for the door during the rendition of the National, Anthem at public gather- ings, has not yet been wholly elim- inated. Respectable citizens arc disgusted with this unseemly haste to get away in callous disrespect to the loyal parting prayer which all self-respecting people everywhere pay to their country and its gov- erning institutions. No doubt, ig- norant men and women in every country are guilty of this open dis- respect, but in a city and country like ours there should be no such ig- norance. It is displayed too often particularly in our theatres, so much too often that a word of warning from the platform or a flash from the screen would not be out of place. This should not be necessary. but there are still those who either do not know better or who careless- ly forget. Whether the National Anthem is rendered out of doors or in a public place, every lady and gentleman, whether native or for- eign, will stand at attention, and others should be reminded of their duty. -—-—<e>———-—- EDITORIAL NOTES. Preparatlons are being made for the shipment of the season's big crop of potatoes. There is nothing definite as yet as to marketing con- ditions andno indication as to what the prices shall be. Among the literary activities now in progress it is pleasing to note that a play will be put on in the near future under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A; also a number of reading clubs are being organized, and no doubt the usual arrange- ments will shortly be mhde for lecture courses and other entertain- merits. This has been an exceptionally favorable year for floriculture. \Vis- itors to the province were loud in their praise of the number of beau- tiful flower plots throughout the city. These bright spots of color add greatly to the beauty and charm of the city. At the Experi- mental Station the display of flow- ers is exceptionally attractive. ii We shall now have a whiff of po- litical air from our neighbors in Nova Scotia. There will, no doubt, be the usual maledictions on the government which. is seeking a re- newal of its leasebf power, but we imagine it .will take some criticism to make a perceptible dent in the record made by the Rhodes Govern- ment durlng the psst three years. It does not pay to boast too loudly of one's success in game hunting. A certain fisherman in a United States hotel boasted ~ that he had just caught the largest fish taken in the neighborhood in recent years. It happened to be the close season for fishing. and are victirii of his fish story asked him: "Do you know who I our Provincial Ministers have taken alann at this evident danger to overyorked statesmen, and are tak- ing the necessary Pttoautions. ‘hi: _, recent IIIOIIUILIIIII even day‘ _ _ m smears-mm. muster"! lawn-w am?" towhlch the fisherman replied "No." "Well, I am the fish war- den‘? "Andi/y, you‘ know who I hlllllT-“lskldfi- I fisherman. "l am thetbiggesii liarvin this county." No or other . Notes by .the Way GOOD advice is a plentiful com- modity ‘at any time, costs no- thing and one can take it or leave it. Lots of aood advide IOI‘ the Maritimes is current just now. Mr. Calder, K.C., cf ‘whom we have heard before‘. advises us to work out our own salvation down here. That recalls the time. years ago, when our Island Railway was block- ed for six weeks, no trains running and the Legislature which had been called, could not assemble. A late lanierited Minister of Railways, a Maritiiher himself, when asked what could be done about it. advised to "get out and shovel snow." Quebec is growing rapidly. The Canadian Business Review tells that the outlook in that Province ismost encouraging. Recent progress is due to rapid ll1Cf6Il8B..flLp0piii8.fii0Ii,. and to aggiessivejeadership in the pulp and paper industry. The wealth per head and the standard of living had long been low In Que" than in any other province. Wc must keep an eye on Quebec, the pivot province of ‘the Dominion, "by which the representation of other ~ units of the Union in Parliament is regulated. Next census will show that some other sections of the Dominion must drop a member or twolbecnuse of the more rapid growth of Quebec. A general election in Nova Scotla ls called for on October 1st, with nominations one week earlier. The abolition of the Legislative Council is a principal reason, and sufficient for dissolving the Assembly before the expiry of the regular term. The notice given is short and sharp, and has taken the Liberal Opposition by surprise. Dumping the surplus of United States into Canada is an old trick of our next neighbors that has been loudly complained of recently by Canadian fruit growers. Canada has an anti-dumping clause in its tariff, but the Ottawa Government neglects to enforce it, and so aids the game of "Canada for the Am- ericans." Looking to Washington as usual. n a. significant that the appoint-k merits of Canadian representatives of the League of Nations Assembly are follovgng along the line of Brit- ish foreign appointments, and are being divorced from any political significance. Senator Raoul Dand- urand, formerly president of the assembly, and Prof. O. D. Skeltori, Canadian under-secretary for ex- ternal aflairs, have been elected to the committee on legal and consti- tutional matters. Hon. Chas. Dun7 ning, Minister of Railways of Can- ada, and Hon. Philippe Roy, Cana- dian commissioner-general at Paris, have been elected to the commit- tee on' technical organizations. Dr. W. A. Rlddell, Canadian permanent advisory officer at the League, has been elected with Mr. Dunning to the committee on reduction of arm- aments. The election of the Prime Minister himself, as vice-president of the League of Nations Assembly, is a signal recognition 'of Canada's status in the Empire. h The statistics of hook circulation in the public library show that we are avid readers of fiction. The latest best-seller in that line is eag- erly sought after; but the proportion of other kinds of literature taken out is dissppoiiitiiigiy small. Are we really as interested in poetry,» in philosophy, in biography, in science, in works of religion and history, as we like to imagine? If the public library in Charlottetown were to cater entirely to the popular taste it might well dispense with ‘works of a serious nature altogether. For- tunately there is no intention on the part of the authorities of doing this. The better class of books will re- main, whether they are read or not. Eventually they are assimilated. for they endure, and the thoughts and ideas contained in them filter down in the course of time, until no one who reads anything can avoid con- tact with them. But it is a slow pro- cess, and it is disappointing from an educatiohal and cultural view- point. 0f the total of 2076 books taken out in the month of July last. for example, 184i were works of fiction.‘ Current periodicals” and reviews shqwed the _next largest circulation. Poetry came a lame third, with his- tory snd travel following. Of the readers who frequented the library in July only fifteen were sumclently interested in philosophy to take out a book on the subject, and the same number of religious works circulat- ed during that period. The total ct books checked out varies, of course, from month to month; but the pro- portion between fiction and other works regains practically the sarne throughout " . . .

An Italian physician. has recently pointed out that the avcragvhelght of the army levies, drafts, is about one inch taller than it was sixty years ago. Also that the height of patients with pul-_ monany tuberculosis was one inch more than that of healthy subjects. . not only at present, but sixty years ago also. On the other hand, the chest girth in tuberculosis drafts or lev- ies is now one inch less than in tuberculous drafts of sixty years ago, while in healthy subjects it is reduced by three-fifths of an inch. Now these figures could likely be duplicated in any civilizedcouritry, and they tell their own story. It is pleasing to know that people are growing taller, because height is something that is generally admir- ed, but the fact that the chest is not as large is not comforting. but really alarming. I believe it all comes down to the point of play for our children. Perhaps our ancestors did not play so much but certainly they did more outdoor physical work. and this rounded out the chest both in the amount of air that was breathed in, and by the accumulation of muscle on the outside walls of the chest also. I have spoken before about ex- amining_recruits for the army and finding that every candidate re- jected because his chest was too small, admitted that he had not played much as a child. This was sometimes because he didn't want' to play, but more often because his parents were afraidvthat he would- get hurt._ “ Remember Dr. Frassettnb figures, and that it is the growing boy or girl that should be watched to pre- vent tuberculcsls. \_ Children need good food, and {plenty of rest also, but even more dzothey need plenty of the play out- s. *O-§+-¢§+9++QO-O eewwu an DAILY LESSONS IN ENGLISH BY W.

The literary taste that is fanned solely on fiction, - even the best fiction, can never be sound and he thy. Apart from its cultural value, here is a far deeper emotional pleasure to be derived from other sources of literature.
