Last evening's opening function was largely at- tended, and it is evident from the exceptionally large entrylists in the show classes and racing pro- grammes that interest in the Ex- hibition this year has been greater than ever before. The executive of the Association are to be congratu- lated upon the initiative shown in ‘going ahead with their plans, dc- spite decreased grants and the gen- eral slackening of business due to the depression. They realize, rightly, that this is the time in which an exhibition can be of most service to the community, and it is to be hoped the public response will fully Justify the enterprise shown in this respect. “Education and Re- creation." ac President Paton said in his address at the opening last evening, is the Association's motto, No function in the Maritime Prov- inces blends so successfully these two objects as does the Provincial Exhibition. Today, tomorrow and Thursday should see the fair grounds largely patronized for both VPUFDOSCS. rilfl-lifilil; SCPPRES QING IT Wich the single exception of the lOCfil Liberal organ, every Maritime newspaper yesterday featured the Canadian Press report of the spe- cial advantages accruing to the Maritime Provinces as a result of the Bennett nego-i tiations at the Imperial Economic Conference. Whether by accident or design our contemporary also omit- ted, in its report of the Conference closing, the enthusiastic tributes paid by Mr. Baldwin and Mr. Bruce to the leadership shown by the Canadian Prime Minister who, as Mr. Bruce expressed it, was "the mainspring of the Conference." The reason is not hard to surmise for Xontempor- alys omission of Conference news which other newspapers featured prominently. Only a few days ago, while responsible Liberal papers like the Toronto Globe were predicting success and upholding Premier Bennett's attitude in his trade ne- gotiations, and while the question of Soviet Russia's trade relations with Great Britain was in dispute, Mr. W. M. Lea, provincial Liberal leader, delivered himself of the fol- Governments OUT lowing oraculur utterance in the Strand Theatre: "As far as I can see, every move the British are making is ill the direction of making the necessities of life cheaper for the consumers of Canada; every move the Federal Government is mak- ing is to make the goods of Can- ada higher and to prevent us ' getting a better market in Eur. ope. What the British people are anxious to do is to promote trade within the Empire. The repre- sentatives of Canada have of- fered to let in such commodities as celluloid and strychnine, a few babies’ toys at Christmas time. (lB-uiilitcr) 8,000 of these commodities the greater number of which are not produced in Canada." Nor was Dr. Cyrus Macmillan, defeated Liberal candidate in Queen's at the last federal elec- tion, behind the provincial Liberal leader in his endeavour to belittle Canada's attitude at the Conference. "I notice," he re- marked in his only reference to the offers made by the Bennett Gov- ernment, "the much heralded list of 8000 articles that Mr. Bennett was going to put on the free list has dwindled down to 200 in the lost few days." Truly it would have been a sorry let-down m these self-appointed champions of the obstructionist ele- ment in the United Kingdom ‘had our contemporary published the expressed opinion of the leader of the British delegation at the clos- ing session of the Conference. "It was fitting," said the Rt. l-lon. Stanley Baldwin, speaking on be- half of himself and his fellow-rep- f ggqentativcl of the". British Gov- nnulqnt- ' "that _ Premier Ben- Wrtising will build up and maintain raries are maintained in Europe. clunlcfirruwll cullnnun Viee-Prealleao-J, l, Burnett ousr sums nctt should preside over the conference. It is fortunate that we have in Canada's Prime Minister a man so admirably qual- ified for that difficult task. He possesses: driving power given to few, which is an essential element lip the conduct of business of this kind. He has a grasp of detail which is astonishing and yet with it all, when one realizes what a grasp of detail involves, I have been struck all the time by his accessibility, that he always has been ready to discuss points as they arise with any delegation st any hour and in any place." PLEADS FOR UNITY Premier Bennett's onerous duties in negotiating trade agreements at the Imperial Conference did not prevent him from exerting himself tactfully in another important dir- ect'on—-that of pescemaker between the British and Irish delegations. ary session he voiced a profound hope of the early solution of the Anglo-Irish difficulties. Acknow- ledging the congratulatory remarks from the various delegations lead- ers, the Prime Minister said: “Listenng to the observations you have made I think I might be permitted to say one thing. I have only one regret and it is a deep regret to me personally, that one of four Dominlons represented at times experienced slight-very slight-feelings of difference. But though the Irish Free State dele- gation nlay have experienced such feelingsPthey were never express- ed-they were purely omeinl, {or they have established as a result of the conference the most cordial relations between themselves and, without exception, everyone of the delegations here assembled. " "I should like to express the hope that these cordial relations so firmly established here may pave the way for the solution of their difficulties." "Applause," adds the Canadian Press representative, “broke from every delegate in the House of Com- mons Chamber in approval of this sentiment." T. Sean 0‘Kelly, head of the Irish State delegation, was seen “to give several decided nods cf his head in agreement." so did Rt, Hon. J. H. Thomas, Secretary of State for the Dominion-s. Mr. s...- win applauded. Lord Hailsham smil- ed his approval. And thus the Con- ference as a body imparted ' its ardent approval of Mr. Bennett's hope-that an accord will be reach- ed between the two Commonwealth nations which had so willingly Jllined in making the Conference a success. N ON-A DVERTISERS Occasionally we hear of s group of mqhants, says The Printer and Publisher, who have agreed among themselves to restrict the amount of advertising they will use. They make no public statement that such regulations exist, but, the truth has the habit of leaking out. When one contemplates what ad- vertising has done to stimulate in the past, and what it will do in the future, it is dlfficultto understand tlfs attitude. ' Btrsnscly. s. certain lack of ap- preciation ‘for the value and true importance of advertising still ex- ists among a few housu. Some branches of industry in Canada have sought to curtail or restrict advertising and as a result some firms have curtailed their advertis- ing effort to thg extent that they may be regarded, practically, as non-advertisers. 'I‘hey apparently fail to realize that advertising is the thing that is keeping them in business-that is other people's ad- vertising. They forget that if others entertained the same views as their own they would not have a market for their products or goods; there would be no reason for their ex- I r On this subject, Advertising Age makes some observations worth quot- ing: "Far-seeing business executives m" l0 "Q llltl!’ QOIIIPQWOYS‘ ldvef- vantages of Canada's great outdoors In his remarks at the closing plen- _ an interest in and demand for pro- ducts of all those in the line, and thus protect the industry as a whole against the cnslaughts that" are bound to come from all direction-l."

It wasn't a matter of ability so much, as a sort of restlessness, nervousness, ‘oversensitiveness, or emotional dis- ’ turbances. That the events of the world "war ,upset everybody and everything is "admitted, and much of the restless- ness or nervousness in these young- sters could be accounted for in this way. However it war then discovered that a great nlauy of tnesc cases of nervousness were found to be among youngsters who were born during the war. "The horrors, the ‘strong emotions and the sorrows which their mothers experienced had left their mark. They are over- sensitive individuals, who try to control or hide their feelings, tremble at the slightest remark, however gently spoken, who are tor- tured for a continual need for use- less movement, and whose impulses are often violent. It is necessary to employ mental hygiene and medi- cal treatment in the case of such individuals, because these nervous was prevented from diving from the Ambassador Bridge a few weeks ago.

The school teacher naturally complains of the time and atten- tion these youngsters require, and the results are uncertain. Natur- ally something must be done in these cases to save the school tea- cher from wasting time, to open the eyes of the family to .!ie facts and to remove the painful confus- ion which these unhappy indivi- duals must feel in a society for which they were not made. In Great Britain, the Congress of Technical Teaching has called physicians in and. asked them to give expert advice on a choice of a. career for students. This means that these students who were born during the war will not only re- ceive the best advice from the technical standpoint as to a. choice of a career, but will have, what is equally, or perhaps more import- ant, the advice of a physician with special training in nervous ail- ments and with a just appreciation steps to curb the power of the Irish Free State Senate, and pos- sibly to do away with it altogether, are reported to be under consider- ation by De Valera. seeing that the hopes of mankind." EDITORIAL NOTES i it is estimated by the New York Herald Tribune that the new Empire preferences will place about $50,000,- _000 worth of American iron and steel exports at a disadvantage in Dominion markets as against Unt- ed Kingdom competition, and per- llilps another $50,000,000 of American agricuitural expolts at a disadvan- tage in United Kingdom markets as against Dominion competition. With a preference in the British market" of well over a, dollar per Canadan barrel even under pres~ ent exchange conditions, Maritime fruit growers are looking for a great revival in the industry, The fumed Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia produces an average of 1,500,000 bar- rels per year, of which about '15 per cent is exported abroad. Plans are already under way in Nova Scotia to increase the production to 3,000,000 barrels by 1942. An ex- cellent quality of apples can be produced in this Province also", and it should now be profitable for our producers to pay attention to this important industry.

They met merely to work out a practical policy of co-operation among themselves, by this very act setting an example before the world, one which the world badly needs. It may be, in- deed, that the work which has been accomplished in Ottawa these past weeks will mark the beginning of the end of tariff imperialism, of that mad race in economic nation- alism which has worked such havoc in recent years. Canada will gain from what has been done, and Brit- ain, and all parts of the Empire; but it may well be that in the long run all the world will benefit, which is to be desired.

Trading In The 17th Century (National Revenue Review) The life of‘ a fur trader in the seventeenth century, as revealed in journals and letters written by em- ployees of the Hudson's Bay Com- pany at the lonely outposts, never lacked adventure. Trading with the Indians never became hum- drum. It was conducted, at first, by barter, the exchange value of skins being decided by the Chief change was fixed by the Company. and uniformity amongst the many outposts was obtained. Themed- ium of exchange was the caster or made beaver or simply a skln- If the trader assessed the value of certain furs at, say fifty mule beavers, he handed the Indian fifty sticks, quills or other tokens, each representing one beaver. The Ind- ian then selected the goods he wanted out o: a great store which included cloth, capotes, blankets, caps, shirts, guns. powder. horns. knives, hatchets, kettles, needles, pins, scissors, thimbles, fish hooks, paint, string, glass beads, etc. He paid for his purchase in sticks or quills. Never would an Indian leave the store until he had spent all his temporary fortune. When his "coin Fur reason given for this is that tlhmparticularly keen that the men in of the realm" was Bllllflllilifid he continued to buy on credit, and he seldom defaulted in his payments. Rum, which played such an impor- tant part in the early days of the fur trade, was eventually debarred by Governor Simpson, after wit- nessing a revolting brawl. Outfitting a ship in London, Eng- land, for the fur trade, required a first hand knowledge of the red. man's tastes or r--.;-- ‘ H15 desires varied, and gradually his demands turned to things of a practical nature, and the rush on beads and trinklets declined.
