The right to do so is one of which citizens of any democracy boast." fltir Liberal contemporaries, it will be noted, \\'<rc all tiirlt-r the impression that democracy would continue to reign supreme. Parliament woiil<l assemble; questions would be asked and answered; issues would be debated and the Gov- eriimrni, as in duty bound, would give a full ac- counting of its stewardship. 'l‘hc bursting of the bombshell has left some of lllblll frankly astonished. “The abrupt inetlioils of the Prime Minister," says the Hali- fax organ, “came as a surprise to everyone. In this country of ‘magnificent distances’ it is un- ClfllYClllllllllll to say the least to summon mem- bi-rs of Parliament front all over the Dominion, only to dismiss tlicm after a few hours.

Iii the circumstances, the (jhrilniclc fears that the election result “cannot be an accurate test of public sentiment towards the Covermiieiifs war efforts." ’.iit our local contemporary is made of stern- cr jlilfllsilll stuff. It swallows its previous prog- nostictltions without a murmur, and with as little reriard for its own words or for the su- PNEFIIZIC)‘ of Parliament as Mr. King himself has shown, declares: "The people NOW will have a chance of deciding just how much truth there has been in the criticisms which have been levelled against the Government." Could the Nazi propaganda machine improve on that for frltuous inconsistency? An Ancient Farm Society Pools and cooperative organizations, so com- mon today, are generally regarded as modern institutions. It would appear, however, from the records of the King's County Agricultural Society, Nova Scotia, that such ideas are not so novel as many think. The Nova Scotia Society, which has just celebrated its third jubilee, claims to be the second oldest farm society in North America, being exceeded in age by another or- ganizatioii in Pennsylvania. As far back as Jan- 'uary, 1790, records of the society show that the members, deciding that cooperation was needed in the marketing of cattle, sheep and other live- stock, banded together for that purpose, and contracted to sell through no other medium than their own agent. The society was found by the inhabitants of the Townships of Horton and Cornwallis, and according to the quaint wording of the time, was organized "for the better im- provement of husbandry, encouragement of maiitifacttircs, cultivation of social virtues and to promote good order and the well-being of the community." Farmers Kick At Ottawa Dictation According to an Ottawa despatch in the Montreal Gazette farmers are growing resent- ful over the bacon agreement with the United‘ Kingdom. according to representations made at a meeting last week of the Canadian Chamber of Agriculture One of the troubles confronting bacon pro- ducers is the variation in railway rates, the rc- sttlt being that while the agreement is profitable '10 farmers in Ontario and Western Canada, it is the reverse for bacon raiscrs in Quebec and the llltiritime Provinces. Another problem is presented by the result of the low duty against dressed pork from the United States. It was charged at these meet- ings that shipment of dressed pork from the United States, with a duty of only a cent and a quarter, was profitable. More trouble has been caused by outbreaks of hog cholera in Central Canada, and it was stated that the Montreal stock yards had been “i|tiaratttined." There was a complete absence of the disease from Canada for a number of years. Because of this peril, it i: anticipated a dc- mand will be made by Canadians for the barring of imports oi dressed pork just as the bringing iil of live hogs is now prohibited. i Eastern farmers declare that while the agree- ment with Britain has brought $3 or $4 a hog more than the farmer would have received had there been no war the cost of feed and of mov- ing feed has taken away much of the actual profit. The farmers feel that when the Government fixed the prices to be paid for bacon, they should at the same time have fixed the price for feeds. Oats, barley and wheat are not out of line but the items that go to make up a bal- anced diet so necessary to modern hog raising, are sharply higher in cost. The farmers are now demanding that they be consulted before the Government makes another long term contract. IIJIIURIAI.

The ivords “pctticoztt" and “bnstlc" have come alive again and have been deleted from the “obsolete" category.

Not a few had come long distances with wives and children; had engaged boardings or rooms; and had closed for the sea- json their houses “do\vn home." Now they were without ivarr-ing told to get back as quickly as they possibly could to their constituencies. ls it any wonder there was rebellion in their hearts and subdued jirotcsts on their lips? They had ex- perienced the first taste of totalitarian govern- ment as applied to themselves, and didn't like it. U U I l Of poems of passionate love none can surpass one of the oldest: Ah, you are beautiful, my love‘ ah, you arc beautiful! Your eyes are doves, I behind your veil. Your hair is like a flock of goats, streaming down from Mount Gilead. Your teeth are like a flock of ewes ready for shearing, that have come tip from the washing. And never has tlicrc been a more lyrical and ardent depiction of the strength of dcsire than: For love is as mighty as death, as strong as Sheol; As for passion, its bolts are bolts of fire, furious flames; Many watt-rs cannot quench love, nor rivers overcome it. Both of these quotations are from Solomon's "Song of Songs" and are taken from the first translation nf the llihlc made by American scholars-“llic (‘oinplctc Ilible" (The Univers- ity of Chicago Press). ‘r1111 CHARLOTTE IDIES BY TllE WAY The Toronto Glob: Ill Mill bu dope well w draw attention w the to _ the war.
