Sept. 2. C, G. T.

The standards of too many farmers in this country were not high en- ough, he asserted. The farmers' aim should he to Increase, not de- erease, their output, Referring to a report on a com- mittee of th: section at the associa- tion's meeting in Toronto in 1825, on the subject of agriculture, Mr. Morison recalled that the report said: "In various parts of Canada the view has been deliberately taken that the studv of agriculture has definite cultural, as well as vocation- al value." In nearly all the newer countries, he said, agriculture forms part of the curriculum of th: secondary schools. Overseas opinion on this subject was much more advanced than in England, he added.

Patrons of 6215 per cent. of all theatres in the Province, they say, will be relieved.

Some slight hope for the St. Rap- hael and its passengers, the Princess Lowenstein-W erthesm, Captain Hamil- ton and Colonel Minchin, was received in the hope that a white light, probably belonging to an acroplane, was sighted by the Dutch steamer Blijdendijk 280 miles east-southeast of New York. The light was travelling in an caster- Jy direction, however, and if it was the St. Raphael, the plane was far off its course and was going in the wrong direction.

The Cana- dian authorities are mow di i to permit aerial exploits which are little short of suicidal. It is pointed out that already there has been too much sacrifice of life and that if the Govern- ment stops a man from going over Niagara Falls i na barrel it should also stop aviators from engaging in flights which add nothing to scientific know- ledge. ; The Canadian Air Board, of course, would have little control over foreign exploits. but the landing of stunt fliers in the Dominion could be prohibited. If the Air Board does not already possess sufficient authrity to stop sui- cide in the air, legislation conferring the necessary power will be sought at the next session of Parliament, it wac said. Daring flights undertaken chief- fy for propaganda purposes are not re- garded with favor here. INDICT MRS.
