WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1929 P‘, THE GOLDEN YEAR. “b, 1981 promises to be the mostwon- deriul year in the historyoi the Pmvinoe. In that year the glittering assurances that have dangled beiore the eyes oi the electors ior genera- tions are to be iulillled, the political millennium will be ushered in with Lbraying oi trumpets and crowing b! roosters. the cornucopia oi the MaoKenzie King Government willbe literally turned upside down and its benedcient contents poured upon the heads oi the expectant people, and we shall sit. each taxpayer under his own vine and rig-tree, basking at , last. in lie glorious sunshine oi Fed- oral Qvor. The auspicious signs are all about ul- 1931. we are now iniorlned, will see among other things. the comple- tion oi the new car ierry steamer, the standardization oi the Murray Harbor railway. the building oi new railway workshops and yard accom- modation on the reclaimed ground at the eastern end oi Charlottetown, 1nd the completion oi the new C. N. It. hotel. All this," oi course, on one condi- tion. There is. nrst, the little mat- ter oi a general election to be at- tended w. And, oi course, ii we are not good we shall not get any cake. At least. weshali not get any Liberal mo. There are many. however, who are beginning to weary oi promises, the fulfillment oi which always seems to mode beyond an election horiz- on. "Man never is. but always to be bl ‘," is a cynical truism ire- llilmtly lliplied by the King Govern- ment to the electors oi this Province, and there is no assurance that the good things promised ior 1931,which the Government unaccountably iail- ed to bring about during its present wterm oi oillce. will not again vanish like a mirage. The sincerity o! the Government can well be estimated by the iact that construction oi the car terry. which was promised definitely ior next year. has not yet been ten- tered ior. While the need has been ior haste, the Government has seen ht to mark time. It has shown, throughout its whole administration, a callous indiflerence to the require- Ilents o! the Province. but it has alaskied this indiflerence under so many honeyed assurances and ex- pressions oi sympathy that ll; seem- lngratitude on our part to insist up- an our rights. The coincidence be- tween the promised munificenccs in i931 and the forthcoming election is loo striking to be ignored, In view bi all the circumstances, it is more than doubtful ii the people this time will swallow the bait. As Lincoln is said once to have remarked, you can iool all the people some oi iv time, and some oi the people all the time. but you can't iool all the peo- pls all the time.

The cases dis- covered showed indefinite symptoms oi‘ iever. stomach disturbance. con- fllbation, and sore limbs. this con- dition lastlng three or (our days ai- ter which paralysis sets in. The dii- iiculty the authorities are up against is that doctors are not being called early enoush. and that it has been impossible to procure serum irom other Provinces, owing to the in- creased demand ior it. An endggvbr is now being made to procure the serum locally by preparing it from the blood oi children who have had the disease and recovered. In the mllniillw. PI-rents are advised to keep their children from picnics, public resorts and gatherings. Quir- antine regulations must be strictly enforced, and parents will b; asked to co-operate in every Precautionary measure which the authorities may see iit to adopt. ~ For the present there is no cause ior serious alarm in this Province, but it is essential that every precau-- tion be taken to keep the disease un- ‘der control, CARMAN’!

Another will say: A calendar should be ior all civiliud nations. The na- tions will never accept this new-isn- gled calendar. And yet all these troubles were met when the Calendar was last changed in the reign oi George the Second. That was in an. i767 and the world was troubled lol- a, time about “Old Style" and “New Style." When New Style was introduced in England, Wednesday. September 2nd was ioliowed by Thursday. September 14th.‘ The Calendar had been los- ing time, so to speak, and New Style set it iorward. l2 days, just as we set iorward the hands ‘oi a clock that hasbeendosingtime. The nations did not all accept the new order o! computing time.

Many Moslem _Wa.qis were originally tituted in order to preserve iam- ily property irom the rapacity oi the Sovereign, as they were. while being nominaly devoted to the upkeep oi some mosque. college, charity. or ior the beneiit oi the Holy Cities oi Mec- ca and Al Medina, burdened with a perpetual pension in iavor oi the ioundefa heirs or nominees. Thus pa Waqi may be a really pious iounda- tion or a sort oi iamily entail with only a formal semblance oi piety about it. s New rrorousbruo While the courtyird was a cul-‘de- sac. there was no great diillculty about accommodating those Jews who daily came in ones or twos, or in scores upon the Sabbath. tostand on the Moslem pavement and lean against the Moslem Wall whichused to be King solonioirs. but within “the last iew weeks the" Moslelns have built some staircases through‘ their property so that one oi‘ the doors which previously only led into one oi tha houses giving cnito the court- yard now opens into a -_ v way which connects the courtyard with the Bab a1 Magharibe. one oi the entrances to the l-laram-esh-Sherli, to the south. and a good deal higher up. This means that the courtyard in iront oi the Wailing Wallhasbeen converted into l. thoroughiare ior Moslems (as there is no particular ’ reason to suppose that the passages and staircases through the Moghrabi houses at the south end 'oi the court- yard are open as a right oi way ior Christians or Jews.) The stairs and passage have been built subject to the building regulations now in iorce in Jerusalem. and have, therefore. oillcial sanction. indeed, it is dimcult to see how their construction could have been iorbidden by the authori- ties without arousing indignant, and justiiiable, protests iroln ths~Mos- lems.
