The statistics of Ontario do not indicate that it makes any difference. In both 1904 and 1908 the marriage rate was lower than in years preceding and following. In 1912 the opposite was the case and the century's record rate of 11.2 mar- riages per thousand was recorded. But that was due to the general pros- perity, which was then at its height, and which was very much on the wane when the Great War broke out two years later. Leap Year 1920 was also a good twelve month tor mar- riages, with a record of 10 per thous- and. But that also is explainahle on other than leap grounds, for many returned men were becoming estab- lished in civil lite and were taking brides unto themselves. Leap Year really makes no differ- ence. except that there is one more. day in which to get married. How. ever u the Kineardine Review re- marks†every leap year in lenp y?!- for pedestrians 110' that motorls s monopolize the roads. But does leap year really "work"- are there more marriages on account A few years later a similar act was passed in France and in the 15th cen- tury proposals by the fair sex worn legalized in Geneva and Florence. "Ordonlt (ordained) that during yo reign of her malst blessed maiestie, Margaret, ilku maiden ladoe ot' baith high and low estait, shall hae libertle to speak ye man she likes. Gif he re fuses to tak hir to bee his wyf, he shall be mulct in the sum of ain hun- dridty panties. or less, as his estalt may bee. except and alwais git he can make it appeare that he is be lhrothlt to anither woman, then he sclml be free." Tltere is no explanation ot the popu- lar belie! that leap year confers tho right to "propose†upon the sex which is generally supposed not to exercise that privilege in other years. But an interesting act of the Scottish Parl- iament has been unearthed which was passed in l22R, a leap year, and the belief may perhaps be traced to that source. The Scottish Act how- ever was not limited to the year In which it wa'i passed. It runs thus: LEAP YEAR AND THE MARRIAGE RATE There was, a month or two ago. a man named Lloyd George. much in the public eye. And yet in the record breaking ewnts of the past week or two, he is never heard of! What can be wrong ? It is impossible, that he is indifferent to the epochal change that has ousted the two old parties from the seats of the mighty, yet he is never or rarely quoted. Perhaps he is lying low t6 spring like a pan- ther on some umsuspeetlng enemy, waiting perhaps for another general election when by stored up energylte will try to put the Liberal party on he govermnent pedestal. It is hardly time to repeat "How the mighty have fallen '." Ramsay MacDonald is 57 years ot age, the son of Scottish peasants, without many advantages in youth. He is soil" educated and though never manually employed, his knowledge of Labor conditions and the close study he has given to their problems, has made him Prime Minister of Britain. Tho career of this man and his Government will be sympathetically watched by the civilized world. prosem Labor party which in spite of the Wars of most ot the nobility and ot leaders in both the old parties. has won its way to power by peaceful methods and an absence of anything revolutionary. my: Emlyn 'tetctetofirst Carnival Passed Ott Tuesday of this week, Baldwin waited on His Majesty George V and tendered his resignation at once : at once MacDonald was sent for and asked to form a government. With a promising promptness he met his col- leagues and by 4 p. m. this same Tuesday he presented a list of his ministers and by 6 p.m. the public were discussing them. If he can keep up this pace he will rouse old St. Stephen's out of its red tape shades. Thuy go about things calmly but steadily in the Old Land.
