The Manitoba which gave the King novernmsnt probably the most ef- . fcctlve support of any Liberal news- pQpq-"in the election campaign. in an editorial headed “Playing the .Q|.mc," has this to say about the results: .

He has delivered the goods. and he has rionc so without compromising one ma the traditional policies of hi5 partys platform." We suggest that our local con- ‘ temporary give the sentences above q":-'-<*-' prayerful consideration. and then re-read some of its own iretulent effusions of the past few days and ask itself seriously whcth- or i: c: {he He»: Press is better qualified to express a critical opin- zen The Free Press. of course. is still opposed to Mr. Bennctts POIKLOS. It belleves that he will have difficulty ‘ill fulfilling his election platform. But it does not for a moment believo or suggest that he was insincereinhis promises or ls incapable of carrying on efficient government. On the con- [IETF ii S8._\'SZ PI-le" fMr. Bennotti "has pledg- ed himself and his party to far- reaching changes in policia which have become an historic part of Canada's internal and external direction of affairs. In doing so he has placed the honor of his party and his. 02m personal repu- tation at stake. That reputation ls a high one. Mr. Bennett is a man whose talents and ability are un- QUESCIOIIBDIG. He has proved their worth both in his own profession of the law and in business. I-Ie is also a man against whose integ- rity not a word has ever been spoken. Disagreement with the views which he holds ‘a possible. But his motives are above all n- proach. His sincerity is obvious. For this reason among others it ls most fortundtc that the people have given him a. good working major- ity in the House of Commons. He will have full scope to carry his theorlos through into practice." In other words. the Manitoba Free Press is prepared m give Mr. Ben- nett a chance bafore passing snap judgments on the working out of his policies. This is a dignified attitude in an opposition newspaper and it ls cne whichwvill appeal m intelligent electors of both political parties throughout the Dominion. T meaty-One Years Ago The trans-Atlantic flight of the R-100 recalls the fact that it is only twenty-one years since the first cros- sing of the English Channel was made by air. In the early morning of July 25, 1909. Louis Bleriot bumped down on a rough field at Dover. Twenty-seven minutes before. he had taken off from the French side, and in that twenty-seven minutes history was made. The Channel was. at that time. the widest expanse of water any airman had attempted to cross. and Bier-lots feat was a great accom- plishment. considering tho flimsy ma- chines he travelled in, the low power of his engine and the worlds small knowledge of aeronautics. Bleriots flight was made to win the prize of 25.000 francs offered by the Dally Mail to the first aviator who should fly across the ChB-nml between dawn and dusk. There were other airmen after the prize. and Hu- barf. Lathcm took off almost a week before Bleriot did. but fell into the sea. Bleriovs machine was s tiny monoplanc. the llihftit mid!

What is the reason for the row of buttons on the cuffs of a man's coat? ornamentation? No! They are there because two centuries ago men wore sleeves so tight they. had to be un- buttoned at the cuffs to be removrd. The tight cuff went out of style. but cuscom dictated the retention of the buttons. The first steamship had masts be- cause in those days a ship without a mast was not a ship.

This is the reason that an hour before midnight is worth two afterwards: you are not piling up too much waste or fatigue products at one time. Try and get your regular amount of sleep.
