In Austria, Mr. McKenzie found the people to be so "sad, pitiable and deâ€" pressed, and the worst feature of it is that the people see no way out of their â€" misery. Strinped of all but eight millions of its people,two milâ€" lions of whom live in Vienna, the remnants of a former greatness alone remains." If the currency question was confusing in Germany, it was more so in Austria. Mr. MceKenzre said that if a man wanted to feei rich ally he had to do was to take a British pound to Vienna and bave it changed into native currency. "A pound note is all that a person can change at one time, «nless he were to carry a basket to take care of all the Kronen that would be heaped upâ€" on him in denominations that make one dizzy to count. _ Many amusing incidents were related by the speakâ€" er to show how one may hand out tips #n an . apparently. extravagant fashion and yot not be "much the poorer. ‘"The hotel service," the auaâ€" ionce was told, "is good but the prices charged are ridiculous. One can get all that he wishes to cat, excepting butter or creaim, for about 20 cents. Half a roast chicken for 18 cents, ana in fact it would be impossible for one to eat more than 40 cents‘ worth, ui less he wished to pay very liberaliy for the music." "But this condition of things" said the speaker, "applies only to those who have nonâ€"Austrian money. Amongst the Austérians themselves, starvation is rampant. In Sopt. 1923, most of the shops in Austria were closed. This owing to two causesâ€" no stock to manufacture; and because of the rapidly changing prices." of animosity d&gainst the British,. Lo a question on that subject he got this answer, "How can there be any antâ€" mosity? You fought us but the war is over, we want your money, let us call it quits." But there is a definite animus against the Freauch. This is a century old feoling and it is recipâ€" rocated. This makes it well nigh imâ€" possible to be optimistic with regard to the Rubhr. However, Germany has J. V. McKenzie, Toronto, tells of his Trip thru Central Europe On Monday evening of last weex, Mr. J. Vernon MceKenzie, editor of McLean‘s Magazine, Toronto, gave a very interesting address in Watsons Hall, Priceville, on the subject of his recent trip to Central Europe, particâ€" ularly Germany, Austria and Czechoâ€" Slovakia. Mr. McKenzie is a very pleasing speaker who possesses a deâ€" cided!ly human touch in dealing with his subject. Mr. McKenzis prefaced his address with a remark to the effect that he did not wish to be considered as an authority on the political or economic situations prevailing in the Central European â€" countries. _ He reminded his audience of the fact that Ims sphere was journalism. While this 1s undoubtedly true, yet it was quite apâ€" parent that Mr. McKenzie is the posâ€" essor of a fund of information of a general character, and that he also possesses that universality of mind so necessary in the successful editing of a national periodical. Little Change in Germany; Austria in Bad Shape L hind PRICEVILLE c When the Acsessor Comes Round. | When Assessor Mcliraith starts on his rounds nest week he will have a new item added to his duties. That will boe the lining up for municipal income tax of all citizens who at proâ€" sent are paying income tax to the, Dominion government. In the past! the only persons assessed locally for income have been persons of known‘ income, such as salaried government | ofticials, school teachers and others.. But under the Assessment"Amentâ€"| ment A ct 1922, at the last session oi the legislature, the term "income" is | defined 2s including all persons do-i riving money from wages, business‘ profits, interest 1'r0nJ investments, and cvery known way of getting money | together. The exemptions are to be the same as under the Dominion Act, ie., $2000 for households as heads of families, $1000 for bachelors, etc., m towns and cities and $1,700 and $800 in villages and townships. $200 is saâ€" ded for every child under 18 years or: other dependent (undor the Dominior law it is now $300.) In a town like Durham where the tax rate is around 50 mills people with incomes _ from $2000 to $4000 will be in the peculiar position of having to pay more inâ€"| come tax to the municipality than to| the federal government. Ona the oth; er hand, men of larger means, with incomes of $6900 and over, who pay a rate of increased proportion under the Dominion Act will pay less income to . the municipality.

With regard to Czechoâ€"Slovakia, MNr MceKenzie humorously remarked that it was about as hard to find ones way around that country as it was to proâ€" nounce the name of it. "The Czechns speak (German," said the speake;:, "but they will not speak it to you peâ€" cause of their intense hatred of the Germans." Unlike the Austrians and Germans, the (zechs have a good money system, but they are, howeves, a very backward peopie. Rev. Mr. Bushell and Mrs. H. B.

This is the first of a series of addresses being given by popular Canadian speakers unrdr the auspices of the Young Moen‘s Club of Priceville. _ Watch for no: ices of the others.

"One cannot help being impressed" said the speaker, "with the amazing capacity for eating possessed by the patrons of these operas. Tables are arranged all over the auditorium and one caa eat and watch the show for hours a« a iime." It would appear that the patrons of these operas do not stana to lose anything, for if the show is not worth the amount paid, the "eats will be or vice versa. An item of inâ€" terest mentioned by the speaker was that there is no unemployment in Austria, it being against the law to "fire" an employee. Custom Chopping every day at Mc Kechnie‘s Mills.

Liberal legislators after Premâ€" |ier Brewster died in the last month | of the last winter of the war.

On the last ballot but one, Dr. King. now the second King at Ottawa, lec: but finally rugged strength came into its own‘ and inâ€"~British Columbia they are accustoming themselves to speaxâ€" ing of their grand old man. He fought the MacBride â€"railway policies, which have landed the proâ€" vince into a mess which makes him say that if freight rates don‘t go down he will be ready to go out of Confeaâ€" eration. Timid Liberals besought im to keep quiet, but he wasn‘t a quiet sort. _ He became opposition leader in the assembly when there was nobody but himself to lead; and then he lost his own seat. But the day of atoneâ€" ment to him came, when the wild oats harvost was bitterly garnered. KHe was and is Minister of Agriculture and Minister of Railways. A prâ€" decessor in the Agricultural depart ment had become Minister of Finance What the cabinet had come to can b« judged from a line in the biograpny of a schoolmaster not long from the old country, which says that he (this rewcomer, without any official posiâ€" tion) wrote the budget speech of this minister. Nobody ever wrote Honest John‘s speeches. His sentences don i always charm the fastidious ear, but they.are full of mental meat, and tae brilliancy of native force. At Hamnâ€" ton he missed his train rather than leave unsaid what was in his mind. He‘s a rotund chunk of a man, anc surely good for many years yet. His father died near Flesherton only a few weeks ago, aged about ninety. By comparison, then, the Hon. Jonun Oliver is British Columbia‘s stii; young man. How Carlyle would have delighted in him !

Soon | he was sent to the Legislature, where | both as a Liberal and a man he had no tolerance for the MacBrideâ€"Bowâ€" _ ser bunch.

Last week "Old John" talked to the Hamilton Canatgâ€" ian Club. He told them that we are getting too much scared of work in Canadaâ€"manual work. Why, he saig he had dug ditches in B. Columbis alongside Chinamen and wouldn‘t mind doing it again, if necessary. _ Before the speechmaking began he casually mentioned to the President that one of his sons is a Hamilton doetor. The President hadn‘t heard of the fac:. "No," said Old John, "I don‘t believe in grown up boys depending in any way on their father‘s name for recegâ€" nition." All the same he‘s glad to help any of his family of eight. A summer or two ago he took a premierly holiday in the Okanagan Valley whore his son Charles was setling up a canning facâ€" tory. He put on overalls and was sawing wood when along came a felâ€" low waniing to sell a boiler that had been associated with a still which hau been obseloted by a B. C. T. A. stili hunt. The boiler was just the thing for the cannery. It had cost $7590 ane was none the worse for use. Premies Oliver bought it for the cannery for $150 and said it was a good thing for Charlie that he wasn‘t home ana his dad was there when the boiler was offered, for Charlie with his heag full of science, wouldn‘t have made as good a bargain.
