The water has been chilling perceptlbly while he has been stand- ‘ingorl the‘ brink, but he is evidently ‘calculating upon a favorable reac- ‘tion from the tariff concessions ln the‘ Dunning budget, the return of their natural resources tothe West- ern Provinces, and the belated rec- ognition‘ of the recommendations oi the Duncan Commission with respect to reassessment of Maritime fllbsi- dies. So far. however, thc auguries have, not been promising. The western‘ "wing oi the Liberal party is bitterly‘ hostile to the tariff changes while in every Province the Government's right-about-iace towards protection is causing bewilderment to its sup- porters and amusement to its oppon- ents. If the protective measures how to be adopted are in the inter-i rsts of Canada, thc electors will have ' no difficulty in deciding that the pro- per party- to support is the- party’ that has consistently advocated pro- tection. So the main issue in thc campaign, despite the eleventh-hour conversion of the Government, and its attempt to steal Conservative thunder, will be the tariff. 1n the circumstances, it is more than likely that the prediction of the local Liberal organ will be fulfilled and that the Government‘: tardy walk to the “penlt/ent bench“ will be in vain. g _so far as the Conservative candi- dates in this Province are concerned, ‘the election. early or late. will find ‘them ready. Hon. John A. MacDon- ald ln King's County, Hon.‘ John H. Lure. M. L. A.. in Queen's. and Mr. J. Prank Arnett in Prince are the unanimous choice of the party and theirlconvlctlons witll respect to the tarlfLthe implementation of, the Duncan report and other campaign “issues are in full accord with the policy consistently enunciated by ‘heir leader, f-ion. R. B. Bennett, and will require neither trimming nor gamcufloge when they go before the ieople‘. Canadians in U. S. Attention has been drawn to the ‘recent announcement made by Mr. H. Hull. United btates Commissioner General oi Immigration, with re- gard toCanadians who have not taken out papers and are still resi- dents in the United States. 'I‘l'ie statemcn was made by Mr. Hull in oohnootlbn with difficulties that may recur should unregistered Canadians It“! to mum 8n Canada on vaca- tlon-or otherwise. According to the dispatch, which was-carried by the Canadian Press, various difficulties were enumerated nnd a general. cas- ual perusal would leave the lmpres- , aion that it was practically impos- alble-for a Canadian to leave the United States forhls native country and to get back again. ~ ‘There is no cause for alarm on the pvartaof Canadians. now in the south, who desire to return one holiday.

The Lure of the Library it is encouraging to note that the Public Library, in its commodlous new quarters on Queen Square, is being more widely paftronized than at any time since its establishment in this city. Thus one of the chlefob- jects which the Harris family had in mind in‘ their generous contribution towards the new building is being fulfilled. It is really‘ more important to encourage wider circulation than to fill the new bookshelves. The lat- ter object will be achieved in time, but it is necessary, it the library is to fulfill its function as a cultural and recreational centre, that public interest keep pace with its growth and development. The library is al- ready well supplied withthe great classics of literature. It is desirable of course, to keep up with the times, and the money available for this purpose is being judiclou y -‘- cd ln the purchase of new volumes. ‘I‘lle emphasis, however, should continue to be placed upon ‘the clas- sics. Books do not become classics when they have ceased to be read outside the class-room, as some peo- ple imagine. The classlcs are simply the “best sellers“ of the ages. Many of them, when first published, were the best sellers of the current month or year. The only difference between them and the latestbestsellerlniic- tion or biography isvthat their in- itial popularity hasbeen indorsed by subsequent generations of readers. Boswell‘s Life of Johnson made as great a hit'in its day Is Ludwig’: "Napoleon" or Ramarqueu “All Quiet on the Western Front"; but the interest in Ludwig and Ra- marque is already somewhat on tho wane. while thc interest ‘in Boswell andllis writings has never been greater than during ‘the past/few years. Ludwig may survive changing fashions ancfbecomc as “classical” a writer as Gibbon or Macaulay. On the other hand, he may be complete- ly forgotten within the next twenty years. One cannot analyze the qual- ities in a work that are enduring; ' and the guesses that literary critics ’ have made in this respect, from Shakespeare's day to the present. would make in themselves the mast amusing "best seller" of the year. The library officials cannot. of course, persuade every reader who comes in for the latest and trash- ieat detective thriller to go away satisfied with a volume of Keats or William Morris under his arm; but if he can be inducerfto come regul- arly and often, if his curiosity can ‘be aroused by a judicious display of the books of enduring enjoyment. he will sooner or later stumble uponia “classlc" and fall lrl love with it una- ware. ' Daring Daniela A list. has been compiled of Unit- ed Statcs Senators who voted "dry" while continuing to drink in viola- tion of the law. The Senate, howev- er, has refused to publish thrllst. But what might in ‘generdl practice be conaide ‘ hypocrisy is nor, 50'". Ilflled by- the dry leaders. Rev. Clarence True Wilson. secretary of the Board of Temperance, Prohibi- tion and Public Morals, rejoices that there-are public men in the United Btates "bl!" enough to drink and still vote‘ for what is right." we have a number of those big men in this Prov/lobe. ‘ - -aa..a.>______, 1‘ Editorial mom ' " A own-torn ‘feature o: rm nunnirl‘ htdglt ‘om much ot7tbeprefar- . oauotualpwaiohicoiian;iritain‘a. increased consumption of animal products in this country. It sayaz‘ "Canadian demand for animal pro-i ducts has been steadily increasing duringthe past, decade, and on a per copltabasls, Canada is one oi the largest consumer in the world. ‘Although production of these products is advancing, it. has not kept pace with thc growth in consumption, imports have in- creased, and exports have ‘declined. Outstanding examples of this trend are furnished by meats and dairy products. The per capita consump- tion oi meat is now so per cent great- er than it was in 1920. and the total quantity of meat consumed annually has increased by 20 pcr cont, The legislation committee of the Canadian Manufacturers‘ Association reportsthat during the present ses- sions, to date. 35 bills have been ln- troduced in the House of Commons and- 045 in the various Provincial Legislatures. The committee states, also, that in addition to the thous- ands oi statutes now hastily placed on the books, there are more than 11,000 volumes of Canadian court re- ‘ ports, and fifty volumes of Canad- ian ‘digests for consultation and reference. In other words, our leg- islative bodies are making lawsiso rapidly that it ls impossible to keep track of them. No wonder the cry goes up every now and then for o. rc- view or the whole situation; the cl- i‘ irnination of antique, out of date sta- tutes and a. general simplification of the whole system. Wcq have too many laws. A pleasing incident was the presentation to Col. J. H. Woods. the editor oi the »Calgary Herald, and the retiring President of the Canadian Press Association oi his portrait the work of Mr. Kenneth Piorbes by his fellow members of the Association. Since i907 Mr. Woods has done much to assist the news service of Canada, being a charter member of the Western Associated Press-and being active in the estab- lishment of the present nation-wide service. The President has now retir- ed jrom that position after having served in it for four years, and the presentation made at the annual ga- thering was in recognition of the fine‘ service he has given. Col.

They don‘t care a hoot whether Mr. Dunning has turned Conservative or remains Lib- eral as he professes to do.

The passing of Albanirernovcs the last of the hierarchy of singing birds who enraptured the music lovers of two ontlnents in the mid-Victorian ptlflod. Jenny Lind made her debuts in Iohdon in luv, Patti inlacl. and Albiuli in 1872. ‘Tradition is a treacherous guide- there is no absolute point of refor- ence; still I think it is reasonably safe to assume that Jenny Lind was the greatest s ger“ of modern times -ln a class by herself. lire perfect union of art and nature defies analy- sls.

Patti had a 370M471‘ register and ipurity of tone than Albanl and she {was happy in her period, when Lond- ioners were still satisfied with thrills land Italian vlrtuosities, bcfcre thc ‘advent of Wagner. She had also imore vivaclty and hlstronlc capacity than her younger _ rival. I heard | Patti in i872, when she was in her iprime, in L'Etoilc du Nord. By an ;ci'iort of memory I can recall the ibrllliancy of her singing, but at the time. I only noticed a. wild-eyed Qvoman with her hair streaming down ller back rushing out oi a tent and ‘screaming at the top of her voice. I was too intent on watching Va troop of Cossacks with real horses (the correct effect on the stage at that period) climbing a hill at the Quack of the immense Covent Garden istagc. ' Albanfs voice lipd a timbre, so gnoticcable in Latins. that madc up lfor her lack of register and purity. When she was atllcr best she could rouse the deepest feelings of her audience in n way that even Patti's celebrated delivery of "Home. Sweet‘ Home" as an encore could never do. Albanfs youth and thc charm of her voice ensured llcr a sure place in opera. for some years, but she eventually realized her lack of dram- atic, power and in lat/er years confined herself to concert, work nnd oratorio. The day was 1785MB; when: prima donna. could come to the footllghts for her . solo and then sulk- or look bored till her turn came again for arfarla or a duet. _ .. f ' Impressive Performance . flilifilolonel MaoGreaL. a ygrcat ‘V pep. sonal friend of my.‘ Parents. heard Albani sing in the: little opera house in Malta,_and_ was so impressed by_ her performance that he was one of a, groupwho financed lier_ and in- troduced her to a Inndon "audience in 1872.
