WHILE it is quite natural that the, more recent of our war IlEfIl-X orials should occupy a foremost place in public opinion and bc thc centre of attraction. we must not forget our first war memorial, that commemorating our part in the South African war. This was the flrst war adventure ‘the Province engaged in. and it has been fitting- ly commemorated by the handsome monument on the southern side of Queen Square. This monument is at present badly in need of being cleaned up. The bronze surface is covered with verdigris and is be- coming very unsightly. This should not be allowed to continue too ‘long. as eventually the corroding effect ‘will penetrate too deeply to permit {of repairs. we still have amongst ius quite a number of veterans of the !Boer War. and in justice to them ins well as to ourselves we should ‘keep in good condition the mem- crial commemorating their achieve- ,ments and their gallantry.

To us cvcn morc so than to others. it was clear that unless thc Mnritimcs were pro- grcssivc, Canada's future develop- ment would bc by so much retard- ed. We have not been alarmed by scparationist threats. but we have been concerned that an actual eco- nomic separation of the Maritimcs from the rest oi Canada was taking place. Your Executive felt that we would have your hearty support in any collective action that would show the Maritimes that we were marching shoulder to shoulder with them in their efforts to flnd the place of the Maritlmes in the-chang- ing economic order in Canada. You know what we did. We asked one. hundred and twenty-five men who‘- represented the political. industrial and educational interests of the Maritlmes to come to Toronto as the guests of our Associati n for four days. Almost ninety accepted. We wanted them to meet Toronto business men, to study advertising! and sales methods employed here,‘ to flnd out what Ontario wanted tof buy. or could be induced to buy., from them. We wanted them to‘ work out with us some organization by which the Maritimes could en- for. with a. fair chance of success, into competition for the markets of Upper Canada. We hoped for anl economic conference that would| mark the re-confedcration of our!

It moved primitive men t9 run swiftly across the land on foot and to compete with other men in the foot-race. It was soon found that a horse could gallop faster than a man couldrun and the horse race was established in the sporting world. Both these forms of speed sports have con- tinued down to the present day with but little increase in the speed of footman or the horseman over that attained in the Olympic games of thousands of years ago. With navigation came in the com- petition of speed across rivers, lakes and oceans. Water vehicles propell- ed by oarsmen grew in size and were propelled by the wind and sails. In these forms increasing speed was sought and gained on the The circular goes on to state that a committee representing the major industrial interests of the Mari- iimes will shortly be announced. and to consult and advise. a committee selected- from the most influential. business men in Toronto has been chosen; that a Maritime Trade of industrial concerns are making operating in the Maritimespand that among other activities of the imme- diate future it is the intention to launch an aggressive tourist cam- §aign. In all of these things. 1t is expected to have the whole-hearted co-operation of the three Maritime Provinces. There can be no doubt that such an organization, with a Maritime membership and ofllcers. with such keen interest in and knowledge of the home land. will be a factor oi‘ increasing importance to Canada. and especially to the Maritime Pro- vinces. -{O&-W. OUR. WOOD LOTS. N many farms throughout the Province there still remain acres of valuable hardwood. The hardwood supply has in the past several years been badly depleted. The first care of our pioneer fore- fathers was to get rid of the forest. and they did it with a thoroughness that at this distance appears to have been ruthless. It was the only thing that. stood between them and the cultivated farms of their dreams and hopes. They could not be blam- ‘ed for this. Lumber was in the way and was comparatively valueless. Today our timber lands, especially our hardwoods, are the most valu- able of our rural possessions, and these should be conserved with the utmost care. A comparativelysmall area of hardwood, if properly looked after and re-forcsted where pos- siblc. would supply firewood for com- ing generations. This is a mutter which should bc carefully consid- ered by those who are fortunate cnough to still possess even small hardwood areas. - Even the soft woods-the spruces, the pines. the hemlocks and the ce- dars-although occupying less valu- able land, would be found valuable assets in the matter of fuel supply. Care and conservation would per- petuate them for generations; and it is hoped that such conservation will be undertaken wherever pos- slble. i PHILOSOPHY OF EMPIRE ' HE British people," said Sir William Clark. British High Commissioner to Canada, on the occasion of his being welcomed to Ottawa, “may fairly claim that they have evolved a philosophy of Em- pire which places our Common- wealth in a wholly different cate- gory from other great political ag- gregations of the past. Liberty is its fundamental principle. its es- sential aim. Each Government pur- ‘aues it within its own borders; it is the ideal of his Majesty's Govern- ment in Great Britain in the excr- cise of their responsibility for that part of the Empire which is still held In trust. And in the autonom- ous group the principle has been carried to its logical conclusion. each member being. and intending to remain. a free unit. self-contain- ed and self-controlled. butthrough mutual can-operation.‘ through com- mon allegiance to the Crown, aunit "1 - measures" Commissioner will probably be ap- land and about 2|) muss an hour pointed for Ontario; that a number across me Atlantic Ocean. enquiries as to the possibilities of} water. The speed competition cov- cred land and sea and both land and sea movement became more rapid since the steam locomotive, and the railway train and the swift. steamships have come into opera- tion during the early part of the nineteenth century. Before the cen- tury closed passengers might travel by rail at 50 to 60 miles an hour on The motor car now compares in its swift movement with the rail- iwa; train. while the aeroplane in |its element has attained a speed .far beyond any vehicle ancient or !medern on land or sea. Only the ‘other day D'Arcy Grieg. a British ‘Flight Lieutenant. attained a flying speed of 319.57 miles an hour —- a little better than flve miles a min- ute. An Italian flyer had before reached pretty near the same mark, his speed record being 318.62 miles Tan hour. But the speed craze is not abating nor are the competing lspeedeis satisfied. “The Truth About the War"- much has been written and publish- ed in relation to this controverted Notes ‘by the‘ Witfdy] | iwrzazia ivuuzlrtnmazsrrtur Day by l):i_v Negotiations Ten Years Ago.

Reilly of the American Army last summer wrote a series of articles which appeared in two American magazines, the Metropolitan andl Liberty. both of which have a large circulation in Canada. Liberty was for a time forbidden mail carriage in Canadian territory. but the ban has since been removed. In July last Major George A. Drew in Mac- Lean‘s Magazine pointed out what he found to be serious inaccuracies in Reilly's articles and an attempt to belittle the British and Canadian unduly accredit the part performed by the American forces.

Many readers grow tired of pro- longed controversies. and the dis- cussion about who won the war falls into that category. The re- turn of Armistice Day may revive some interest therein for the mom- cut, among thc few, but thc celebra- tion on thc Eleventh Day of the Eleventh Month should be embalni- ed in thc spirit of peace and good will. How to preserve peace throughout thc world and prevent any future resort to warfare is a matter of vastly morc importance than further fruitless controversy about who won the last war. "Too many flying accidents" is a headline in a New York paper. and doubtless there have been too many that were avoidable. In the United States this year in the first six months there were 153 persons kill- ed in 300 flying accidents. compar- ed with 162 during the whole year 1927. But there were twlcc asmany planes in the air. In the States there is divided control betwcen the federal and state authorities over aviation. Each state makes its own laws and exercises control over fly- ing within its own territory. while the'federal authority has Jurisdic- tion only over inter-state flying. The Supreme Court of Canada has ‘been asked to determine the extent of provincial control and responsi- bility over aviation under the B. N. A. Act. The Winter Fair in Amherst was. as usual, a triumph for our live- stock raisers. We have grown ac- customed to winning in these un- nual competitions andexpect them to be repeated. Our competitors from the sister Maritimes have also come to realise that the lion's share of the price money must go across the water to "the Island." in canning frulta and vegetables. the Central and Western Provinces have developed an extensive and profitable industry which has hith- erw been sadly neglected in the Maritimes. We pay a heavy yearly tribute to the Western canners. as under the above quoted caption,'0W111E L0 the Starl- 0!’ the Belief!!! part in the greetilruggle ‘and to . at the Bombon Chateau. near l-lelum. where Ithe fmarshall ‘had spent part of the summer. It was offensive of the allied armies that he had decided to move his head- quarters to Senlis. This little prov- incial town had nothing in partic- ular to recommend it but from the view-point of strategy it offered the great advantage of placing thc marshal] in the center of the allied armies. Moreover. as it is close to Paris. the max-shall was always able to be in communication with the NIIQQ~~ illihat lino? The reason for this was that the had Just arrived from Germany and they knew very well that the revolutionary storm -was growing and an outbreak was imminent, I may say here that. during the recital of the marshall. none of us thought of making the armistice conditions harder. We were too full of joy. Not knowing what was hap- pening ln Germany we could not hope for more. It is necessary to recall that it was on this same mornini; 0f NOV- 9, while Clemenceau and Foch were having their interview. a dramatic. almost Shakespearian, scene was staged at Spa?

They told the emperor the troops did not want to fight any longer and that the whole German people demanded the abdication of the Emperor. William II, became furious and de- clared he would place himself at the head of his troops and march to Berlin to restore order. . Grocner coldly replied that the troops would no longer march be- hind the emperor and that there was nothing left for the Kaiser to do but to “go_to the front and 80b yourself killed at the hand of the few regiments that are still loyal In a Price Range ‘pfifroni $15 to $35 FOR THE Armistice v Dance MONDAY, NOV. 12th New Frocks . \ > Bewitchlngly young in Line and so young in feeling- designed so smartly and of’ such lovely new materials, Just to you,“ The emperor made no re- ply.

MD TIIE BROKEN NOSE As long as Jack Dempsey was fighting regularly. that is before he was engaged in moving pictures. he didn't bother to have his nose straightened. So if you had seen his nose before. you would scarcely believe that it was possible to get good results from operation. ' In boxing, a blow on the nose is a frequent occurrence both during training and in actual bouts, and many ‘boxers do not bother to get the nose “flxed" until they are finished with the boxing game. I-Ioweever in football and other which had sent us, as young men. lntq what army which certainly had grandeur but also had terrible slavery. We have forgotten almost‘ all that. Speaking of 1870. Clemenceau re- called the heroic figure of Gam- betta and said: “What a misfortune that Gambetta did not live long cn- ough to witness this apotheosis which realises his famous prophecy about imminent justice. He. too. merited well of the fatherland and merited a different destiny. Let us bow to destiny but let us bow still lower to the memory of the great Statesman." This shows that Clemenceau, con- trary to what has been said many times, although he attacked Gam- betta severly as chief of the oppor- itunistijparty. none the less had always for him profound admirat- ion and esteem. Just as we were about to leave the marshal! showed us a telegram he was about to send to the comm- anders-ln-chief of the various alli- ed armies. It pleased the Premier verv much, It read: “The eriemy disorganized by our repeated attacks. is yielding on the whole front. Our movements must be continued and precipitated. I appeal to the enemy and initiative of the commanders-in-chlef and their annles to make the results obtained definite." "When you're dealing with Ger- mans you must expect anything." It will be seen that the doctrine uniting the policy of Clemenceau and symbolized strategy of Marshall Foch was supreme.

In fact they are really as thin as a shell and crack into a number of small pieces. The usual procedure under such circumstances is to try to mould the nose back into the best possible shape and then let a nose special- ist complete the job. Whe the injury occurs, an or- dinary atch, household size, with sulphur removed, is wrapped with clean absorbent cotton, and put up each nostril. The fingers then rub down the outside of the nose. and thus it is brought back into its best possible shape. The matches should then be re- moved and the patient sent to a nose specialist because the nose is such a prominent feature, and a clear passage is essential for pro- per breathing. Even if you are not a physician it is not hard to get the broken egg shell feeling with your fingers, when the nose has been broken.
