Qnrrlg, FRIDAY, MARCH 8, 1929' fnivrnuatr rmonuvracn ' is extraordinary that at the pre- t busy season both in Ottawa and home, when the Federal Parlia- t is in the midst of the session, . en the Provincial legislature is ut to meet and our farm- are in annual conference Charlottetown, the Premier fills Province should see fit to de- for Montreal and Ottawa, to ad- _a Rotary Club and the Women's dian Club, and “incidently" to . 's provincial matters with the Vh- departments." The Premier's utation as an entertaining speak- ._ at ladies’ organizations has not l cted any great attention in his Province, but the old saying that hisown country, may be applic- e to his present venture. In any it is remarkable that invita- . of this kind should come at this ular time, and it is even more rising that lie should feel called 7' to accept them at the public ; - use when official duties at home " i-- his utmost attention.

The great ques- i n of securing additional provin- r" ' subsidy, which. he states will be ‘if up "incidentally," is very ob- usiy dragged in to give color to otherwise bald and unconvincing rrative. 4 ' hatever Premier Saunders ac- i plishes for the women at Ottawa, e can be little doubt that other ttezu, hinted at as of "minor im- - bee" in his interview with our “is correspondent, are occupying -. attention which he should be giv- : to the affairs of his own prov- , .- Indeed, the real purpose of '_ g present visit is no secret either g - or in Ottawa. It is reported that .

Mr. Saunders . every reason to be interested in e advancement of this gentleman's 5 reer; but the rm that it is of quite lidary importance to the people ‘ this Province is one of which he ' i not. be too frequently reminded. ‘ Inthe circumstances, is it reason- e hope that the important ma:- of provincial subsidies will be ad- ‘ cod by this hasty and untimely grimage? There is no question ~- tour need of increased subsidy, A ls then any question as to the - mathematicians new theory which paradox; every formula. is anoutrage cn common sense. One is left baf- fled as by the hieroglyphics of an in- sane scrlbbler. Wells himself, who boasts of considerable scientific know- ledge, professed himself at his wits’ end. “We have followed our deduc- tions further and further into a. stirring crystalline complex of multi-dimenslonal curvatures and throbbing reactions. Energy is and is not, and then again it is; all Being flickers in and out of Not-being; there is an irrational bound set to motion, there is a. limit set to the range of temper- ature. Space is bent in some in- conceivable fashion so that straight lines re-enter into them- selves, gravitation is a. necessary consequence of duration, and atoms are the orbits and har- monies of infinitesimal electrical changes." Einstein's own description for pop- ular enlightening of his space-time system with its bent and possibly un- stable co-ordinates, reads to Mr. Wells "like the description of a clear vibrating four-dimensional haggls." He admits that "in the depths or heights of physics, for one word seems as good as the other when all direction is lost, I find my mind sit- ting downat last exhausted of effort in much the mood of Albrecht Duer- er's ‘Melancholla.’ I have gone far along that way, and I can go no farther into that wilderness of vanishing forms and puffs of energy in a quad- ri-dlmensional field of force.” Most people who have attempted to study the subjects referred to by lvfr. Wells will perforce agree with him. Einstein, Eddington, et al, are in a. class by themselves, and can only be understood by each other. It is said t at there are “scarcely a dozen minds on earth that can grasp the full import of the celebrated German is designed to bring about a unifica- tion ot the laws of physics and 6e1- estlal mechanics. "In between on the misty flats" of miscomprehension or no comprehension, the rest of us drift hopelessly to and fro; and the infuriating part -of it is thatyit is im- possible fora person of any intellect- ual curiosity to keep from speculat- ing about these amazing them-les- of time and space and matter. What do they mean, and where is it all go- lng to 8nd? 1h a paper-recently presented to the Royal Society, Pro- fessor Eddington undertook to show that the electron, ultimate basis of uall matter, was a mere fiction, an idea used by men to explain to them- selves something real but too diffi- cult m grasp. Under Einstein's new theory, this would apply to the sun. moon, stars, the earth, indeed the whole universe. Commenting on this latest idea in physics, the London correspondent of the New York World suggests that our scientists are making the world into something like the grin of the Cheshire Cat in "Alice in Wonder- land," which remained when the cat itself was gone. Indeed, it might be Nolan By The l/Voy 1v» creams“ in Nova Scctla last year paid the farmer: in their vicin- ity over $375,000 for cream. But the farmers who received the money com- plain that they had to pay out about half of it for important mill feed for their cows. Hence arises the quu- tion, Can the farmer lower production costs by growing mom grain? The questio is discussed by Mr. M. D. McCharies of Pictou, in the last issue of the Maritime Farmer. He argues in the affirmative. Years ago null feeds were much cheaper than they are today and it was considered good business to buy feed for milch cows, ‘steers, hogs and poultry, and so keep up the fertility of the farm. Since then the millers of Ontario and the West have found a market for the by-products of their mills in foreign countries, and have so manipulated tariffs and freight rates that the Maritime farmers have to pay more for mill feeds than the Eilmpean farmers who compete with us in the British market. Mr. McCharies quotes the record of _Mr- Edam‘ lime. of lididliletOn, N. 8.. who grew a field of oats last year, and kept account of the cost. The field contained 5 l-2- acres and pro- duced 215 bushels of oats at a. cost of 40 1-2 cents per bushel. The item. ized cost covers rent of the land, fertilizer, seed oats at $1.10 a bushel, . DliWms, harrowing, seeding, rolling, cutting and binding, stocking, limp ing from field, and threshing. Mr. Oral: reckoned the net value of the 315 bushels of feed oats at the current price of $2.50 per S-bushel bag and the 8 1-2 tons of straw at $4 D91‘ 50h. Qiving him a clear profit of $79.25 for the field, or a profit of $14.41 per acre. This seems fairly conclusive of the contention that it would be better for our farmers to STOW more grain, rather than pur- chase mill feed at present prices. R-IAIIO Ill the helm ray wonders increase from day to day. London Daily Mail tells of a new marvel per- fected by the Marconi Company which will enable a beam short-wave radio station to function as both a radio telephone and radio telegraph station. The Mail says it was tried out on Saturday last between Bridge- ivater, England, and Montreal, with astounding success. The tests were made in the presence of a distin- Suished company including officials of the Imperial Communications Company, the Marconi‘ and the Can- adian Bell Telephone Co., “While a desk telephone in the Brldgewater office was busy with talk the tape was running off written telegraph messages at the rate of a hundred words a minute." The Scottish piper who has played the pipe daily outside King George's window since His Majesty's illness began has revived an ancient contro- versy. The bagpipe is not so much in favor south of the Tweed as it is farther north and some of the King's loyal English subjects have protested that even a. brief sklrl of the pipes might aggravate his illness. Evid- ently the music was not unpleasant to theroyal patient or it would not have been continued. Whht is equal- ly evident is that it was intended to contribute toward his recovery and as expressive of national joy because of his convalescence. And the Scots rally loyally to the defence of their national instrument of music. As a result the story has been re-toid of a dying Scot who wanted to hear the pipes once more ere he passed away. Eager to comply with his last wish twenty pipers turned up at his home. He rapidly recovered instead of passing away as had been expected, and in describing the incident is reported as saying, “Mon, but it was gran’. There were twenty bonnie pipers all in the one room an‘ all playln‘ different tunes. Mon, mon, I thought 1 was in Heaven." (firm? m ‘iiflfiTTl-ETCWN tiff/KRISTIN’ Ami-Qin- Byuna W.B¢rlon.MD. ' DANGER 0F TONS“; STUMPB When you read of the record of 48,000 school children, 20, 00 of whom had their tonsils remov , you nat- urally want to learn of the improve- ment or luck of improvement in com- paring the two groups. At first you will be greatly disap- pointed because from the standpoint of rheumatic fever, joint pains, or growing pain there was 8 per cent in those whose tonsils were removed, and '10 per cent in those with tonsils. Not a. great difference. However Dr. A. D. Kaiser found that heart ailments developed less often in those with tonsils removed However there is a factor that has been overlooked in this matter. Dre. Paul S. Rhonda and Geo. F. Dick. Chicago, say "our experience with patients who have had their tonsils removed has led us to the belief that the disappointing results that Often follow the removal of tonsils may often be due to the fact that the tonsils were not completely removed. We had several patients who were not benefited by the removal of their- tonslls, but who did improve strik- ingly after the removal of infected pieces of tonsil left from the first operation. In the routine examination of nurses entering two of our hospihls we have found fairly large pieces of tonsils: tissue remaining in 290 of 403 ('75 per cent) of those whose ton- sils had been removed." That these "tonsil stumps" cause trouble _was proven by 23 cases follow- ed in less than a year, in every one of which it was thought necessary to remove the stump, and in which improvement resulted iin all whom we were able to follow." In fact the infective organisms were found to be more numerous in stumps than in whole tonsils. What is the point? That where tonsils have been re- moved and symptoms persist you should have the throat examined to see if a part of a tonsil is still pres- enir When '13 per cent of nurses were found to have tonsil stumps some years after tonsils were removed, it is likely that stumps are present in a goodly number of other people whose tonsils have been removed. r-———_'_"_'——._— The Public Forum This column is open for the discussion by correspondents of questions of Interest.

THE WHY OF EMIGRATION Sin-Your recent article on the , need of an aggressive immigration policy for the Maritime Provinces, is a reminder of the fact that half a million people have left these shores in the course of fifty years. Had we retained these people. or a. fair pro- portion of them, the pressing need of immigrants would not be felt today. Apart from this the question natural- ly arises, whether it is possible to attract settlers to a location that our own people have preferred to leave; or if secured. to retain them after- wards. It has not improved the sit- uation as far as Canada is concerned, that the bulk of our emigration has been to the United States. This movement of population has been the subject of much discussion but all the reasons advanced for it may be set down under one head. “The desire to better their conditions." But this Historic Bognor "Bogncr England,‘ wlme {the Kingofnngiuidliusaouetore- cuperato, has been n. health and Jlfluuro resort for more than I century," says a. bulletin from the headquarters of "the National Geo- grhphic Socety of whaling-um. ‘The town is spread out along the shores of the English channel about sixty-five miles southwest dfTLondon, with which it u oon- nected by fine roads and railway service. - ' "Bognor normally has about l3, 000 inhabitants, bub ‘the Population is augmented in the summer by vaolttionista and week enders who keep its hotels filled to capacity and its parade (boardwalk) sur- ging with c. throng of pleasure seekers.

So those who passed through this great transition period it was doubtless not easy to understand the forces that we're operating, or to distinguish clearly cause from effect; so that the ills and inconveniences r g from these ‘ ohapges were readily attributed to Confederation. , They saw their shipping decline, their trade reduced, their industries removed to the upper provinces, and to find a solution for their difficul- ties their eyes were turned to the the object of their thoughtsand the Mecca of their joumeylngs. But, if at this juncture they had entered whole vheartedly into the scheme of union, which had become mcritabie, and adjusted their condi- tions to meet the change of circum- stances; had they rightly appraised the opportunities placed within their grasp; had they foreseen even to a partial extent the Bl-eat future of their country, which was clear to the vision of such men as Tupper and D'Arcy McGee; and had their course been taken accordingly, the trend of their affairs would have been very different. But their unfortunate condition of mind had a more or less paralyzing effect upon their efloris. Because of it they lost much that they already had and their sons and daughters went forth to find homes for them- selves under an alien flag. I am sir, etc.. CANADIAN. iii TEACHERS’ SALARIES. Sin-Will you kindly publish the following in answer to Mr. Duffy's letters on Teachers‘ salaries. l.-—Mr. Duffy claims that the pre- sent demand is a political move. This statement is not true, as Mr. Duffy could have discovered had he made any enquiries into the history of the salary question. The Stewart Gov- ernment WAS interviewed and made specific promises to the teachers, some of which were incorporated in- to their platform when they appeal- ed to the country. 2.-Mr. Duffy makes the plea that the farmers are unable and unwilling to pay more for education. On United States, which thus became and an object of pity in the eyes of the educational world. Too often have we accepted the excuses of dil- story and indifferent politicians. Now we feel that matters have coma to a crisis and the teaching body stands united, practically 100 percent. strong, firm in their belief in the justice of there cause and equally firm in their conviction that public sentiment is behind them. Let Mr. Duffy understand that this 1S the psychological moment, representing as it does the culmination of years of patient effort and fruitless appeals, any government. 4.-Mr. Duffy appears displeased that we should have the temerity to appoint an official to represent our cause in the province generally. May we be allowed to presume to carry on what is strictly our own business in. the way that seems best to us? If not, we apologize to Mr. Duffy for making this appointment. In conclusion, may we ask Mr. Dpf- fy and every right-thinking citizen to take the trouble of making a com- parison between the salaries paid to teachers in this province and those re- ceived by individuals engaged in every other profession or occupation, public or private.
