GOOD EXAMPLE ` 1
The movement instituted by the clergy ot' Charlottetown.
in conjunction with the Provincial Government. for a
voluntary pledge of abstinence t}r0m alt‘0h0li(' |l‘l\10¥`S
during the continuance of the war, will, we feel assured,
commend itself to all right thinking people. Example
has ever been more powerful than precept, and it is said
that the example set by His Majesty King Gr0rg€- 1-Ofii
Kitchener and other leading figures in the F1mpire's life.
has already done more towards curttilllng the drink habit
in Great Britain than any other movement in the history
oi the l'nite<l Kingdom, one of whose greatest problems
for many years has been the drink evil. Individually and
t~ollecti\'ely the members of the Government pledged them-
selves; the clergy are calling upon the congregations to
do likewise; all honest, sincere proliibitionlsts everywhere
will concur and as li result of united and honest effort
xi blessing will t-oine to this and other communities which
will vt-ry materially help in wiping out Ihr- curse of war.
This out-iny of the race must be fought to u finish, hut like
llii- other wnr in which the Enipire is engaged it can he

OUR NATIONAL LIFE
Our Ottawa ilespatchés yesterday morning savoure
i-loiiicirliat ol' ilie sensational. A fitting climax to th
revelatioiis ot' graft and corruption which have. at intervals
cluding the past twenty years or more, hung like a pall
ts
d
e
mer (nnada tame with the annoiincernent by Premier
o
e
liorden that every man, Conservative or Liberal, wh
had defrauded the Government would be brought to lustic
and restitution would be forccd.". That this was no thru ‘t
at political opponents, but an impartial two-edged sword,
:tinted at friend or foe alike who dared to step beyond the
liouiitls ot strict honesty and integrity, was evitlen<'ed by
lllc fact that tivo oi' his own followers were pl'nt‘ticnlly
rr-nil out of the party.
Thi- t-oiiragc that iiispircd this action will be a revela-
tion and an inspiration to Faiiatliaiis of' ull political creeds.
Wi- had become acctistomefl io whitewashiug commissions
in the Laurier days. when friendly hunters were sent out
to hunt up thc political sins of their friends and when the
most heinous ol`t‘<-iiccs were covered up or excused. Times
have i-lizuigcil_ t`hai‘ges were made in connection with the
piirclinse of ur.ni_\' supplies, and at the first hint of corrup-
tion l‘romicr llordcn ordered an_ investigation. llo
lliorougli unil i`iir-rcacliing that investigation became is
i-viii:-iit~ctl by the fact that witnesses were called from
1-v ~ry section oi' the country in which supplies were pur-
i-lnlfloil, The result of the enquiry is now known. Graft
was discovered: fraudulent purchases and grafting middle-
rncn were unearthed. The great majority ofthe offenders
wire l.iliernls. Ati article elsewhere in this paper tells
liow Lihcrnl officials conspired to violate orders issued by
the Governmeiit. Two (‘.ous`ervative inenihers of Parlia-
ment were implicated in questionable transactions. The
party cloak was not thrown around these offenders. They
callin iintlcr the sword wleliled lmpartially by Premier
.llnlvlcti and they too will pay the penalty.

And the time is opportune for such a step. The best
blood in the Tlrilish Empire is being shed; sons
of (‘aiinillans are giving their lives in the cause. of' human

lirivo sought to make capital out of the Empires calamity
deserve no merc_\', nor will they receive it. vfhetlicr their

'l`lii- step taken in this matter by Premier llordeu
is tlif- bold, courageous step of a strong man determined
to ilo his duty “though the heavens should fall," and

HOME AND SCHOOL ASSOCIATION
ftuitiilloiisly, hut none the less effectively for the better
ment of conditions in this Province are the Women
institutes ln the Rural Districts and the Home and School
Associntloti lu f‘hnrlottetown.
Tho alms of those two organizations are practically
ldentictil, namely. to effect improvements, nnd with the
scriptural motto "beginning at Jerusalem." Their activi-
ties are concerned with the home and the school, the two
essential sources of good or had citizenship. These two
sources cleaned up, purified, made lienltiiy and vigorous the
stability of the nation ls assurred. In this noble work the
women ofthe Province are now engaged and the result of
their efforts is already evident ln many sections, notably
fn the schools.
ln yesterday‘s issue of the Guardian we publlslied ii brief
and very modest report of the monthly meeting of the
lloms nnd School Association of Charlottetown. Although
ln existence only since last September. and although also.
the problems they have undertaken to solve included the
iiprootlng of customs that had prevailed for several gener-
ations--customs horn of cheese-parlng economy on the
part of the men, who heretofore had held a monopoly of
st-bool management-yet they have made marked progress.
Hr-hool rooms which formerly had been cleaned once or
twice a year are now to be cleaned at the rate of one room
per day, which means that each will have its tum within
measurable distance of its previous cleaning. School
rooms are to be decorated with some regard to attractive-

grounds, of improved sanitary conditions. In the very
near future domestic science will be a feature in all the
schools of the Province and this innovation we may at-
tribute largely to the influence of the women who are
taking an active and intelligent interest ln the welfare of
the schools. _
At a meeting held recently lu Charlottetown, (lf we re-
member rightly in connection with the Central Seed Fair).
Premier _Mathleson. while riot. directly charging the men
with having failed in their administration of school affairs.
intimated very plainly that such administration would be
greatly benefited by women’s influence and he pinned his
faith in the future on what the Women's institutes would
do. To these orgatilzations in city and country every DHT-
ent. particularly the mothers, should belong. ln Charlotte-
town there are many needs of the school which could be
discussed hy parents and teachers to their mutual advan-
tage and that of the pupils. We trust that. the growth of
the Home and School Association, as yet only in its infan-
cy will be proportionate to its importance and that each
meeting will bring additional strength both in numbers and
in interest.
BOOT SCANDAL
The “Boot Scandal," which for some weeks formed n
sort of classic in Grit campaign literature, has about
petered out and will shortly be forgotten. The following
analysis of the investigation. from a Toronto exchange.
will be of interest as it very fairly sums up the sltuatiou:-
So far as army boots are concerned, the Parliamentary
investigation has not realised Opposition expectations. It
is a. duty of Oppositlons to keep a check on Governments.
bitt even the minority report, filed by the Liberal members
of the Public Accounts Committee. seems to discard much
ot' the sensational evidence featured under big headlines
in the Opposition press. lt fails to charge Ministers with
wrongdoing, and goes only so far as to suggest that negli-
gence was shown in the purchase of some unsuitable boots.
By implication, the minority report excuses the furnishing
of some inferior footwear to the first contingent on the
ground of iiecesslxuv haste in getting the force away to
Europe.
As the majority report Intimates. a just finding must
rest largely upon the testimony of the two boot. experts
unanimously appointed by the committee to examine the
boots condemned by regimental boards. According to
these experts, only 68 of 1,713 boots examined by them
were not mantifactureil up to sample. Accoriliiig to
Government records, ot' 86,000 pairs supplied to the troops.
only 7,809 or about 9 per cent.. have been oondemnetl.
lf' the boots examined by the two experts are taken as a
criterion, only 379 out of the whole 86,000 pairs may be
regarded as really had.
This is only one-half of one per cent., and it isl safe
to say that the best class of boots bought hy civilians in
the ordinary course of trade does not reach it higher
standard. The outcome of the inquiry is therefore credit-
able to the majority ot' Canadian firms who furnished the
boots for the Militia Department. lt relieves them ot`
the suspicion cast upon them by Liberals over-anxious for
party capital even at the expense of Cnnada's commercial
reputation. The boot adopted for the present war was that
used under thc Laurier Government in South Africa, and
(`nnadian soldiers who wore them at Salisbury' Plains have
testified flint they prefer them- to the llrltish army boot.
There would have been no boot scandal but_for three
things: ll) The boots ot' the first contingent underwent
in England the unprecedeiitcd test of 57 almost consecu-
tive days of rain. t2) Owing to thc haste in despatcliing
this contingent the men had only one pair ol' boots, which
they had to wear contiiiiioiisly, and so could not dry or
care l'or them. (3) The Opposition exaggerated into n
national scandal the fact that some boots were badly
made. Except for 5,443 pairs purchased at Winnipeg anti
Vnitcoiivcr, all the boots were purcliaseti on a tender
basis directly front nianufattttirers. The. Government has
never paid a ccnt of commission to anyone. The net
result of the inquiry is that an expert committee. will
attempt to improve upon the Liberal boot sample uscd
thus fur in the present wlir.

AN ARMY OF Z,000.000
Our dispatches the other tiny credited the well known
naturalist. and author, Mr. E. Thompson-Seton on his
return from England, with having said that a British army
of 1,100,000 had been transported to France.
The author is in all prolialiility but giving voice to rumors
that he heard before his departure. for the War Office is
keeping its secrets well, and no authoritative statement as
to the number at the front has been made recently. lt is
apparent, at the some time, that that number must be
great, for the Allies have been attacking the German lines
in the last few weeks and their work is proving effectivef
‘judging by the reports. A French official statement the
other day announced that the allied forces were stronger
than those of the enemy, which would indicate that thc
British army has been greatly strengthened for the spring
campaign. Rumor has it that there are some 2,000,000
soldiers of the King- now ln France, and there is no good
reason for doubting the correctness of such an estimate.
Certainly there has been no lack of recruits in the United
Kingdom anti the work of recruiting is being prosecuted
with vigor.
The response to the call to the colors in the Old Country
has really been marvellous so ‘far and confirms the faith
of those men who have all along assesrteii that conscrlption
would never have to be resorted to under the Ilrltlsh flag.
lt will be recalled that the royal proclamation orderetl li
_'general mobilization of the army on August 4 last, the day
'war was declared. Two days later Earl Kitchener was
appointed War Minister, and on August 7 Parliament voted
an addition of 500,000 men to the regular army. Kitchener
asked that 100,000 be forthcoming `lmniediately, and inside
of ii month Premier Asrlulth was ln a position to state
publicly that the response had been so well met that nearly
300.000 new soldiers were being trained for service in
France. On September 10 the new army totalled 500,000.
exclusive of the Terrltorlals, whose ranks had also been
extensively swelled. Furthermore, recruits were offering
every day by the thousand, and the daily average was
constantly increasing. lt was a tremendous task to handle
them all, and the system under which they were enrolled
proved its worth. On August 26th there were accepted
1,725 men at the recruiting stations, and by September Sth
the tially average had risen lo just below 5,000, The
second army was even then an assured fact, and lt had
been growing ln Olze and efficiency ever since. Now. ft
may be presumed. it ls in tit condition to do its full shsrs
ln the great task of driving the German invaders out of the
occupied territory ln France and Belgium. No such army
wus ever raised before. That the millions that have been
assembled under the British flag are voluntarily ln the
ranks fs magnlncent testimony to their patriotism and faith
ln their country's cattle.
