As we are progressing at present in Canada we shall soon com- mand the respect, of the world as a nation of chartered account- extras a specialty. + Even the farmer will have to quit Keeping his accounts on the ary door, which may be of some advantage to him at that. Perhaps we could eliminate e of the bookkeepig, raise itional revenue, and relieve g consunier of some of his bur- én, simply by cutting down the tariff to make it possible to im- fort such goods as our manufac- irers cannot or will not supply at reasonable prices. As things are turning out now e tax on the manufacturer is entually paid by the consumer Lpay the price, as the tariff plus the exchange render importation 100 expensive for practical pur- | poses. In the meantime business is hampered for lack of goods, our | Canadian factories being unable to supply the demand even at the abnormally high prices. The prices are mounting, the ikes are increasing, production } curtailed, and the consumer Spends more money and has less 'wealth. ; And Canadian made binders can be bought for less in Eng- land and the United States than in Canada after' paying trans- portation charges (and duty if shipped to the United States): Personal Notes Mr. and Mrs. Ward Allison, and Mr. Gleeson, of New Or- leans, spent the week end with Mr. and Mrs. S.

H. SHORT ManacEn Empire Day On Friday afternoon, Empire Day exercises were held in the schools. The 'flag raising" event, by Mr. Letcher, chairman of the Board of Education, was carried out to the accompanying strains of "Rule Britannia" and 'God Save the King," sung by the entire school population and the staff.

The pupils sang patriotic songs; Lois Lun- dy," Francis Mellow, Marion Goode, and Louise Carnegie re- cited very prettily appropriate selections, and Rev.
