Princess Alexandra, art Prince Christian, of Denmark, arrived in | England i in 1863, when she was scarcely twenty years of age. Three days later she was married to Albert Edward; Prince of Wales; and Britain was ablaze with ~ festivities, : At that time Queen Victoria was on the British throne, but as she was a widowed Qneen, she lived in comparative seclusion, and the royal entertaining was done by the Prince and Princess af Wales. To fill a position like this required infinite tact and grace. But the young Princess was equal to the demands made up- on her; ° The death of Queen Victoria brought the Prince and Princess to the throne, and for -nine years they reigned. Then death stepped in and removed King Edward, and Queen Alexandra retired to her home at Sandringham. Through all these official changes the: Queen re- mained thoughtful for others, generous to the poor, and a wholesome influence i in the social life of the Empire. And now death has come, and the Empire mourns the loss of a noble Queen and a woman of splendid character. * Around the world the bells will toll on Friday, when the mortal remains of the Queen Mother are laid to rest.

The world is longing for peace, and every new inter- national agreement in this direction is hailed as the great and hopeful sign that we are nearing the day "when war shall be no more." _A little more than a month ago, the most recent of these international agreements was signed at the Swiss town of Locarno: The outstanding features of this . |agreement are: 1 France and Germany have, in effect, promised never to fight again; and have agreed that between them shall stand a demilitarized zone-along the Rhine, which neither will ever cross to attack the other. 2: To enforcé this security, Great" Britain "and" Italy promise to, go to the military assistance of either nation "| which shall be the victim of aggression by the other. : Why? : Well, the fact of the matter is that it is begiuning to 'dawn on those European' countries-that it does not pay to fight: g Europe had the Great War, and now she has the great 'taxes, the great debts, and the demoralized busi. ness. per or The United States did not start the war, nor take _|any 'lengthy part in it; -and now is the great creditor na- | tion of the world. ;| Norman Angell teld the od that there was no | money-in war: that only those 'who suplied munitions and ods made anything out of. war, All the rest were poorer a 1c But Emperor, William and quite a number of 'others did not batieve | "Norman Angell.

It was decided to hold a sale on March 4th. It was'the unanimous opinion of those present that more care- ful 'selection of animals con- signed be done, than has been done in the past. It was also felt that by starting early, there would be no excuse for poorly fitted 'stock being brought out. In short ,the cattle in this sale are to be a 'cradit not only to the men consigning, but to the North Ontario Shorthorn Breed- ers' Club. Another meeting of the Club Officers and members--in_fact, anyone interested in "this sale, will be held in the Agricultural Office, Uxbridge, on Saturday, Dec. 5th, at 2.30 p.m. Any breeder wishing to com- tribute to the Sale should get in touch with the Secretary, Mr. J. R. Johnston, Ashburn, before that date.
