Dairy Trends During the year: when the beef cow had jumped merrily over the moon at will, many farmers in- troduced beef sires dairy herds in an effort to get on the gravy train and to pro- tect. themselves against the city -of labor which had become quite acute was concerned. The dairy plants in this Province of- fering additional outlets for whole milk have caused many farmers to look with more favor on the dairy cow and with high favor on the regular cheques which that mal provides. so far as development of Annual Meetings Prince Edward Island will the annual meet-p into their Present indications point to increased milk production for the coming year. a fact which emphasises the importance of the present floor under butter and the importance of adequate prolection' for the dairy industry as a stabil- izer of the farm economy. the SCRI- dairylng modern ani- THFL GUARDIANLCIIARLOTTETOWN THE CENTRAL GUARDIAN ' COOK'S for Perfect Pictures JIMMYB TAXI - Dial 1319 or mo.

First the Dominlon Government moved the last of its storage holdings to the old country and second, cat- tie prices advanced quite sharply at Moncton for better animals. It may well be that farmers who have been holding cattle until the first of the year will receive something additional to compensate them for the chance ihcy took. Potato Movement The weatherman has arnlled with favor on the Charlottetown harbour and co-operated in mak- ing it possible to finish the load- ing of two potato boats this week.

Bolvadero Ave. -2; Strange But True By P. H. MacArthur The world is generally esteem- ed rather by what it appears to be than what it is. Most of us look no deeper than the out.- side show. Too often we believe in what we see. and would be amaz- ed if we were told that what we do see is at. best only symbols and signs - or to put it another way only a lot. of sham and pre- tence. Putting aside the doctrines of metaphyaiclans on the subject, it. is quite obvious that the real meanings and motives of many of our everyday actions lie well un- dz-r the surface. We meet. sud greet our friends in the street or market place and shake hands with them and kiss them. This is. in itself, perfectly use- less and without real meaning. It would do just as well for us to rub our noses together if that were in vogue here, as it. is among the Eskimos and certain other races of the world. But society has put. the stamp of approval on shaking hands and issing to in- dicate good-fellowshi and moth- erly love, and it acquires a signi- ficance accordingly. , Once a practice oomes into it soon grows to be a habit, and we may readily lose sight of the real motives which prompts us to continue them. Custom is the oil that lubricates the machinery of our lives. We do this or that thing because we observe others doing it, not because we think it proper ourselves. For example we males go about in trousers and coats in the hot- test. season of the year tiius ad- ding to our own discomfort. If we examine the reason which ini- pels us to act. like this, we may follow them into the depths of psychology. that we are not altogether self- regulating, but subject to a social impulse. It proves, too, that we want to be like the Jones. We are not. strong minded enough to differ in this manner from othei people, and we think that if we copy otir fellows they will approve of our conduct. . o . The majority of the deeds and sayings of men are nothing but in civilization leads man to dis- guise their real feelings, and to build up more completely a sys- tem of conduct which shall ex- press their social relations fully, and at the same time leave those personal emotions which lie at the bottom of the background. for every person to say all that he had in his mind or to do all that he liked to do; society vioulo founder on the rocks of confus- ion upon such a system. That there must. needs be a wide variance of opinion goes without saying. If this were not the case the feel- ings tlianiselves would bwome blunted and dull. Many persons are able to hide their conflict with a. fine array of feathers and politeness. without any real short of friendship beneath the surface This tendency to rest satisfied witl. present age. uniary success, and the social sta- around himself, than by standards of moral excellence and the warm- th and sincerity of his affections and benevolence. So it seems to lty and not for sham. In other words. seek out the facts and avoid the symbols and signs, if we would go through the world following an original pathway. 0 I I If we choose to follow out the principal of symbolism to its full- est extent we may even invade thr boasted knowledge we have dis- covered no more than certain laws of relation and succession. We are still in the dark when to revealing the secrets of the ma- terial world. its, much more the notions of them which we attempt to convey. are but the tokens of vast and hidden force: ceaselessly at uork. but evericvading our grasp. We turn a switch and on comes our electric light. We feel heat and see light, but who knows what they are? We are conscious of their effects, but there our knowledgc comes to a dead end. ...

Half of the errors which are born in the world are due in mistaken ideas about the meaning of the facts, Certain effects arq, percejv. ed. and people try to deal with them without first finding out the causes which are at woirk to pm. duce thorn. It is as if a bald pated man were to try to grou hair by the application of orange Juice, . It is true that all of us professi to deal with realities throughout our life, but it is generally assum. ad that these realities are spread open around us, instead of lying as they do beneath a mask of sym. bollsm. beneath which very often no outline of our true selves can be seen. If men ever learn to take a loox at the roots of subjects they have to deal with daily, and-liatiiig all that is sham and pretense-seek for the deep fountains of truth and fact within, a better and a nap- pier age than the present will dawn upon this old world.
