But the Kincardine Review measures its ar- gumént for a higher rate in terms of wood,-butter and eggs, etc., and this no doubt appeals with homely | » interest to the Bruce peninsula pro- ducers.

There is, of course, another point of view. For many people these guns have a high sentimental valye. They are ‘trophies of a great war. They are muté remindérs of the splendid a rendered by Canadians in the use of human freedom. . From this point of view they are worthy of pres- ervation in a suitable location.- But they are not things of beauty and are ment.
