SOURCES OF POWER. gand, with a few exceptions, only. gasoline and water. Coal and gaso- line are expensive; water is cheap, the cheapest ‘power available. ln this province we. are using water- power to but a very limited extent A out the curriculum of our pol- ‘ lticol schools u ot- too low In or der and too illbredjer ‘even the scum life of the lowest grades of public life. Nor is it necessary to conduct our politics along such linen. The experience o1 the past has shown the geater permanency of the higher standards. and those who have adopted them in almost every case are the ones who scored the greatest and most lasting of public successes. ffhere can the no wrong in carry~, in; righteousness into politlembut‘ a. lbig lwrong may be perpetrated: by leaving it out. Right immune and right acting should he the for mill purposes where it is‘ mic necessary to transmit the power beyond the immediate locality. The exceptions are those places in‘ is utilized to generate electricity and that only for lighting There is no tloubt that in many of our riv- wvhich watcrpower pu moses. ers and streams there is sufficient water. if scientifically utilized, to provide electric light and power for the whole province. One of tile principal difficulties is the gen- eral levelness of the surrounding country and the consequent waste nf‘iand if the rivers were demoted. This difficulty and others will he overcome eventually however as‘ the machinery ‘for the generating of electricity becomes more highly developed. ln the meantime we must be content with the sources ObpOWI-lf‘ now within reach. wRecently, and. more especially before the use of gasoline became as general as it is today, many of our farms were provided with windmills which at least furnished sufficient power to supply the house and ‘barn with water. The unreliability of the ~wind, its vari- ableuess and. so ‘often, its entire absence made the use of the wind- mill too uncertain and many who. once depended upon it for their water supply have substituted oth- er means, especially gasoline. _lt is interesting to note 't.hnt in Great Britain the useof windmills as an auxiliary source ot‘ power has developed tn a considerable extent. During the war the design and Ontario's experience ‘up. construction of wind-driven dyna- being Dam yo,‘ As ‘by their fruits mos were practically revolution- ized. Small highspeed dynalnos were coupled to the propellers of aeroplanes, the power being deriv- ed from the speed of the aeroplane in flight. A British firm has de~ vised a scheme for fitting three or nlore of these wind-dynomos on the swivelliug top of a vertical pole; with i1 vane to keep them in position against the wind. Each equipment gives 60 watts, and the arrangement forms a cheap and‘ elftclent auxiliary to the ordinary country-house lighting installgtion. The energy produced ls, of coourse, stored in accumulators in the usual way. The operation of the plant is entirely automatic and it is so light and simlple that it presents no obstacles in erection and main- Jeuance. , _ With the increasing cost of gaso- line 11.0w so generally used for these services the British inven- tion is well wvorth keeping in mind. Possibly some of our ingenious elec- tricians may be able to attain to and perhaps excel the British in- ventor. "Necessity is the mother ln this province we derive all our mechanical power from coal, of invention." We have the neces- sity, shall we have the child? Current C mment The pastor in one of our city churches last Sunday laid eloquentl emphasis upon the need of fixing the highest standards lu the nat- touei as well us in the spiritual life. But your standard of life and mbitlon and performance in an xaltedposition and strive to reach nd fhllow it closely was "lg wis- omjf listrong argument. This the t_ e conception of human he- of and g philosophy in ‘its gener- lly accepted terms, but only too ften respected more in the breach than the observance. Aim high and seek to echlevo your aim has been given as the sages advice and if you fail to touch this point of your ambition you will neverthe- less advance to a position tn life more exalted than you would have reached if your aims had been lower.

Let fundamental principles of political or parties that measures nearest to these, NOT lN PROMISE BUT IN ACTUAL PERFORMANCE, will ‘be the successful party of the future. it will not be long before our provincial Conservatives will be called together for reorganiza- tion. a move made necessary by the retirement of Hon. A. E. Arsenault front the leadership. On this occasion the question of the future policy in provincial matters will lbe under advisement. Herein will be the opportunity for raising the standard to its highest point. and here also will be the rlgllt place to fix it as the one strong determination of the party, that those high ideals which go to- wards making the very ‘best of ollr community existence will be ad- hered to with faithful and rigid severity. First of all when a pro- mise is made to the country let it be considered es a pledge as sac- red as our existence, and made to be fulfilled regardless of sinister influence of consideration. Next to this the high standad calls for the expenditue of public moneys and the management of the peoples‘ business with that seine inscrutable care -which a wise and intelligent man would exercise in his own_ affairs. There has always been too lnuch of that laxity around thg benches of mun- cibal and government treasuries. lmllél‘ which the comeensy go- easy methods ls adopted, and the dollars which honestly belong to the pcopletoo freely exploited.

Nnlpoleon has said. “It is not n genius that suddenly re-y veals to me in secret what 1 have to say or do in circumstances 'un-” expected .by other; it is reflection, meditation." No commander ever more carefully planned his strokes. None looked more scrtllplllously af- ter preliminary details.

A Llqhininfl calnpasgn. As illustrating his resolution, the Marshal cited the. campaign against Austria in April, 1809. in Paris on tlhe evening of April l2, he learned of Austria's entrance into the war. He left the capital ill once, arriving on the 17th at Dott~ auworth, at a general headquarters devoid of chiefs. He secured re- ports tfrom couriers telling of great contusion in the movements of the French troops, and important gains by the enemy. l-le took advant- age of tlhe character of the coun- try which was sheltered making observation difficult. and in six days hud reunited his scattered army. He. qtttnoked the enemy cenirev and hurled it back in rout, part of it. to the ‘south, through Landshut lbeyond the lsar and part of it to the north ‘through Rails- bon to the other side of the Dan- ube. Within eleven days after leaving Paris he Jltul fought sever- ul battles. and put the Grand Aus- trian Army out of action, thus op- ening the road to Vienna. Generals Saw Too Much =Fodh quoted with approval Na- poleon's remark that, "There are plenty of good generals in Europe but they see too many things. For my tpnrt l see only one thing and that ts the masses. l strive to des- troy them, knowing f-ull well tlhet their acceseo lea will fall after them." And in order to strike thqm a sure blow he proceeds to follow methodically the art of hurl- ing the bulk of his forces om a. giv- en day upon this enemy mass. The speaker continued: "is there anything more descrip- ttve of novelty of this doctrine’ than the conversation of Bona- parte with Moreen at the home of Director Gohter, in .1799‘! The two generals, who bad never seen each other, says Gohler, iboth seemed de- lighted at having met. It was noted that at this meeting they first looked at each other for a fmoment in silence, broken by Napoleon's opment.
