| SLD DICTIONARY FINISHED AFTER TO YEARS LABOR 'Company of Goldsmiths Feted on Occasion of Com- pletion of Book (By Canadian Press) London, July 9.--The completion of the Oxford English Dictionary af- ter 70 vears' labor, termed by Pre- mier Stanley Baldwin the greatest work of its kind in history, was the occasion of a notable dinner given by the Company of Goldsmiths in Lon- don recently to the editors and staff of the dictionary. Oustanding among the workers was Prof. Sir William A. Craigie of Oxford, knighted by the King for his work. Th Company of Goldsmiths financed the sixth vol- ume. Premier Baldwin pointed out the immensity of the work in his ad- dress, which was the feature of the flair. "It comprises 15000 pages, 400,000 words and 3,000,000 quota- tions. "Prof. Craigie has indeed stood by and helped to rock the cra- dle of our tongue, and has listened to the alliterative babbling of our an- cestors in the nursery," the premier said. "He has watched that tongue through the ages, in its births, its marriages and its deaths, and in its associations with foreign countries, and he has brought it up to the time when, as we have known it for long, it is the most efficient instrument that has ever been used by the tongue of man, "What was the gensis of this great work? It was this: the desire to safeguard and to record and establish for all time the manifold riches of the English tongue. It was that desire that led a small group of men to lay the foundations of that structure whose completion we are celebrating tonight. It is hali a century now since Dr. Murray had his first inter- -Cott| ANCE Phone 1088 'Disne AMB 87 Celina St, view with the delegates of the Clar- endon Press. "Lord Oxford not long ago said that he would choose the 40 volumes of Balzac, if he were cast away on a desert island and could only choose one work. 1 would choose the Dic- tionary every time. It is a work of endless fascination. It is true that 1 have not read it--perhaps I never shall--but that does not mean that 1 do not often go to it." Prof. Craigie recalled a similar oc- casion more than 30 years ago when, in the hall of Queen's College at Ox- ford, there was gathered a goodly company of those who had helped in the beginnings of the Dictionary. He was the infant of the party--a child of three months--so far as the Diction- ary was concerned, and he felt him- self very new and insignificant com- pared to the veterans then present, including the grandfather of the whole, Dr. Furnivall, who even then had been connected with the work for 40 years, and the immediate par- ent of the Dictionary, Dr. Murray, who had been the main guider of its fortunes for nearly 20 years. "It might be thought that after 20 vears of such work very little would | remain for the English lexicographer to do," said Prof. Craigie, "but that is very far from being the case. The English language, even in the past, to sa ynothing of the present and fu- ture, is too vast, too rich, to be mast- ered by the labors of a single age. A HOME FROM HOME What is a bungalow camp? It is indeed very easy to sum up. A home from home. It is not a tent- like encampment as we often im- agine it to be, indeed no cheerier atmosphere could be found than amidet ane of these rustic yet lux- urious camps, filled with life. brim- ming over with a determinatisn to get the best out of the zur- roundings and indeed, life itself. Let us consider the French River Camp, situated in the heart of the rugged and heautiful country such as the province of Ontariy pos- sesses. Here is an ideal vaation for the canqeist, fisherman, golf- er, the tennis enthusiast, and above all there is the privacy of a house of your own to sleep in. Again, there is Devl's Gap Bungalow camp, amid equally delightful sur- roundings, a few miles from Ken- ora. All kinds of aquatic sports are available, including excellent fish- ing, Mention must alsa he made of Nipigon River camp which lies deep in the north woods.

These young people will be representative of the best in Bri- tish youth and are coming to this cquntry as the reward of personal stydy of Canada from an Empire standpoint. The party is travelling under a scholarship plan inaugurated hy the Allied Newspapers of Great Britain for the promation of a more intimate knowledge of the empire among the younger generation in the mother land. A farewell dinner is to be given the members of the party and their parents in London before the young people sail on July 29. The Prince of Wales has extended a_ special invitation to the party to visit the E.P. ranch, and Premier Baldwin, Hon. Mr. Amery and other prominent Britishers are giving the young ambassadors their blessing.

He gave a Royal dinner at the palace, to which all the political chiefs were invited. All came ex- cept Stefan Raditch and M. Preh- itchevitch, leaders of the Croatian Peasant party. These two sent word that they would be glad to talk with the King personally, but that they would never again associate with the Serbian leaders, whom they blame for the recent shooting in Parliament in which two Croat Deputies were killed. The conversations at the dinner were as fruitless as the recent series of private audiences hetween the King and the various party leaders. The anti-Croatian ele- ments are as determined that Par- liament shall not be dissolved as the other side 1s that just that thing must happen.

This is not a new de- parture in police work, but it is rather applying what has been so successfully carried out hy the po- lice in London, England, and by the Royal Canadian Northwest Mounted Police." Proper Training Needed During the reorganization of the last year and a half, recruit train- ing has been supplied under vari- ous district Inspectors of the 12 districts which comprise the Prov- ince. "Experience has shown," states the Attorney-General, "that there is nothing more important fce constables; the man with the training sets out with confdence; he does not need to get all his learning by experience; in this way information is received, crime prevented, and when erime has been committed arrests are made '| expeditiously." { Of the remodelling of the Prov- incial Force, Colonel Price in part states: + "Mt is now nearly a year and a half since the Government policy regarding the Provincial Police commenced to be shaped along the line of building them up as a pol- ice force covering the whole Proy- ince of Ontario. In co-operation with the municipal police in the various centres. "Old System Unsuitable "Under the old system the pol- ice work was carried on in sever. al almost water-tight compart- ments; there were the general police throughout the Province who looked after ordinary crime and misdemeanors: there were the police and officials who enforced the Ontario Temperance Act, mostly under the direction of J. A. Ayearst, and there still were highway police operating under the Department of Highways. "When the Liquor Control Act was about to come into force the whole police sevice of the Prov- ince was reorganized; prior to this there had been the anomaly of the Provincial Police practigal- ly having very little to do with the enforcement of liguor legisla- tion. in fact often refusing to touch it on the ground that it in- who helieves, that, in keeping with | to | than a proper training of the pot- | terfered with their other work. This threw the whole enforce ment of this act om special offic- jals. The reorganization at that time embodied the transferring of all work done under Mr. Ayvearst to the Provincial Police, making them responsible for enforcement of the Liquor Control Act the same way as they were of all other legisla- tion. "Spotters" Not Used Now "The aim' of the Government was that if this new law had the: approval of the public then the Provincial Police should be able to enforce it the same as any oth- er law. This has been carried out and with a very great measure of success. "At the same time the using of 'spotters' was abandoned. The result has been that, except in very special cases which refuse to vield to the ordinary police meth- ods, no special officers have heen used. The department itself se- cures its information in various parts of the Province through the ordinary channels. In these things one can, only have the bal- ance of improvement. Sometimes it is very difficult to root out ob- jectionable infractors of the Li- quor Control Act without making special investigations through special officers. On the whale, however, there has heen a marked improvement in the temper of the public and in thelr attitude to- ward the Provincial Police in the co-operation which has been re- ceived, TO AWARD CONTRACT RITSON ROAD SCHOOL TONIGHT IS REPORT Awarding of the contract on the addition to Ritson road public school is the chief item of husl- ness to come hefore the Board of Education which meets tonight, says J.

In the last fiscal year, the Bureau of Statistics figures show, Canadian exports to France were $9,- 946,145 compared with $26,946,145 com- ared with $15,220,232 the year be- ore. Imports from France aggre. gated $26,473,723 which establishes a record. The figures show a large increase in importations of wine and brandy consequent from the development of wet areas in Canada and also of fem- inine finery while French rehabilita- tion after the war evidently enables them to get along with less of what, formerly was purchased here in large quantities. 3.
