We are not concerned whether the Association takes the advice of this newspaper or not but we still think if it desires-to make an effec- tive protest against the locating of a new brewery here such protest should not be di- rected to the City Council but to the Liquor Control Board, Rev, Mr. Galt wants to know why the City Council did not enquire more carefully re- garding certain details of the proposal before acting on same, The answer is obvious, The proposal did not come from officials of the Brewery Company but from the Indus- trial Committee of the Chamber of Com- merce, including its President and Vice- President--men who have served this com- munity faithfully for many years, and in whom the citizens have very great confis dence. As everyone who is in touch with public sentiment knows, the Chamber of Commerce is being praised or blamed --according to the individual viewpoint--for "securing" this particular new industry. Yet strange to say, the Ministerial Association did not even take the trouble to send a copy of its resolution to that body. Mr. Galt is greatly concerned because no _dissentient vote was recorded at the City Council meeting. Had the Aldermen who took the trouble to explain their position in Council and in that way to the citizens known that anyone was likely to make an issue of that particular detail they would probably have also taken the trouble to re- cord their votes, Perhaps they erred in not doing so, But they left no doubt as to their position and their votes could not possibly have affected the result on that particular occasion, Having received warm commenda- tion from many old and tried friends of temperance they can probably put up with the petty criticism of the Ministerial As- sociation, or such of its members as are re- sponsible for same. A FIXED DATE FOR EASTER - In departing from the ancient custom of observing Easter as a variable feast, Eng- "land has established a precedent which other nations will be quick to emulate, The British House of Commons has de- : clared that henceforth Easter will be cele- brated on the Sunday after the second Sat- urdey of April. Under the system in vogue in Canada, Easter Sunday is fixed as the first Sunday after the ecclesiastical full moon on or next after March 21. Thus the earliest it may fall is March 23 and the latest April 25. Many things recommend the change. 'Schools, for example, could more easily ad- just their Easter vacations to the semester schedule if it fell on the same date each year. When Easter comes, as now, at any time within a five weeks' period, vacation dates L lh be , shifted woh ¥ year or ; they will coin. cide occasionally with the Easter festival. There are other things: that recommend an arbitrary date. In some sections late- March weather is seldom favorable to an Easter Sunday fashion parade. In many other ways is the variable observance incon. venient and confusing. Since the controversy over the date of the Easter festival was settled with the adop- tion of the Gregorian calendar in 1582, there has been no obstacle to a fixed observance except ecclesiastical custom, AN ABUSED ART The use of cosmetics has been described as an art to conceal art. To accomplish its purpose of improving upon the natural physiognomy it must conceal its own artifi- ciality, and in just that Hes the art of cos. metic application, - This thing of imparting a ripe cherry touch to the lips and <a ruby tint to the cheeks and of transforming the eyebrows in. to thin raven lined is an art indeed, and any thoroughfare bears witness to the infre. | quency with which it is mastered, So many of the sweet young things 'would be much sweeter if they were more sparing with their pigments, : When the U.S. National School of Cos. | metics recently deplored the oss bid use of paint upon milady's cheek it acted in the best interests of its business. Women who overdo the thing or do it clumsily do not flatter their cosmetics. One of the few places where a little is bet» ter than a Jot is in the use of cosmetics. This form of temperance is rarely observed but universally approved. WHO WANTS IMMUNITY? Four out of five have it, say tooth paste manufacturers, Four out of five get it from kissing, say scientists and hygienists. Four out of five don't care if they get it, if immunity is to be had only at the cost: of total osculatory abstinence, What a dreadful thing this habit of kiss- ing is! And how hard it is for scientists and hygienists to convince addicts of the dangers they incur! How blissful was the ignorance of those who kissed freely before a German professor discovered that four out of five persons with pyorrhea contract it' through kissing, And they will keep right on kissing freely and blissfully though the dangers and terrors of osculation be multiplied and magnified a thousand times, If the spread of this dread scourge is to be ohecked it will not be by the quarantine method, The transmission of germs by la- bial contact is no new theory; the human race has often heen warned of it, Yet are kisses less freely bestowed today than they once were? There are no statistics to prove it. ~ EDITORIAL NOTES Faint heart or complexion ne'er won a husband, You must be born there to pronounce New Yawk like that. How dull business would be if every man refrained from buying until he could afford it, The bottom in literature will be reached when divorce lawyers start to write their memoirs. Sometimes talk is cheap. Sometimes it isn't, Often a little of it costs a man a lot of money.

WAR GUILT (Leo Maxse in National Review) Englishmen are much too fond of turning thelr backs on anything disagreeable. They invariably as- sume that any nation they fought will do the same, not realizing the difference in the moral of those who won and those who lost a Great War. War guilt is no aca- demic topic we can safely leave to Historians. It is a practical and burning question that the German Government is determined to keep alive, hoping by means of propa- ganda, in which Germans and pro- Germans excel, to transfer the guilt now sitting so heavily on German shoulders to the Allies, the bloodthirsty Czar of Russia, the ruthless Poincare, and the Machia- evellian Edward Grey, who lured an innocent Kaiser and unsuspect- ing Fatherland to their doom.
