Much as Ontario would lke to have used all Capadian fuel for | many -years past, no private enter- | prise has been organized to trans- port, via water, Nova Scotia coal to Ontario. So if the government un- dertook this now, it could not be said that it was Interfering with private enterprise, and if it did, personallly, I don't regard that as any crime, or even a sin, but ix case of necessity or emergency rather at blessing. 2 With a considerable number of idle government Merchant + Marine boats tied up In idleness in the vicin- ity of Montreal, rapidly deteriorat- ing, the only explanation offered, as | far as I know, is that their large, heavy engines, boilers and machin- ery, are placed in the centre of the vessels, which with necessary fuel accommodation leaves little or, nd' roof for cargo.

Dean Starr Announces Mission By Bishop of Montreal. In a strong and practical sermon. the Dean of Ontario, preaching In St. George's cathedral on Sunday morning, set forth the purpose of Lent as a'time of spiritual refresh- ment and of ascertaining where we ourselves stand in our Christian be- llet ang life. The dean referred to a good side to the controversy going on in the United States at present It was making men think. On a crowded train he saw a well-known business man reading the Bible. He knew him and ventured to question him on the matter. The man said, "1 believed in the doctrines Of the church because I learned them from my mother, but my belief was vague 1 want to find out the truth of the matter for myself." This the dean felt was a hopeful sign. We want to be able to give a reasbn for our faith. With this end in view he had asked the Bishop of Montreal to con- duct a'teaching mission in the cathe. drdl, beginning next Sunday. The addresses will be in no sense contro- versial but "the essential truths of the Christian faith will be set forth. The dean urged the members of the parish to endeavor to make the mis- sion a success by their prayers, their influence and their regular attend- ance during the four days of the Bishop Farthing stay in Kingston. -- AT ST.
