among other things mr robb has been dealing with tho question of wheat exportfro m canada to great britain in on endeavor tp find out where tho canadian producer and cxport- b er of wheat could be assisted one of the complaints of british importers has been that canadian wheat on receipt was found to bo off grade in many cases this has been traced to mixing at american shipping points and british importers aro urging tho shipment of wheat eithermirect or in hond it is expected that mr robb may have some recommendations for tho canadian grain trade in tho matter of developing tho export markets and these may lead to a very greatly enhanced development of grain shipping facilities at canadian ports thoro is no hotter wheat in tho world than that grown in canada by all means steps should bo taken by properly constituted author ity to give assurance that this quality will bo strictly conserved- women on an equality with men in municipal voting recent amendments to the assessment and voters act of ontario will placo woman on on equality with men on and after january 1 1023 that is to say when the voters lists are printed next year tho womens names will appear as well as those of tha men so that when election time comes round in jan uary 1024 the women will be nblo to vote in tho various municipalities for the election of controllers aldermen reeves or councillors with tho result that the present number of voters will be doubled the changes will give tho wives of property and tenants alike tho privilege of voting and in cases where the wives are registered owners or tenants their husbands will have tho like privileges in some localities it has been thought tho act would become effective in 1023 so that women would havo the right to vote next year but this view is mistaken when fhe assessors prepare tho list for 1024 they will insert the names of all men and women entitled to vota as owners and tenants and tho names of thoir husbands of wives as the facts of

visitor who was sojourning aj one of the muskoka lakeside resorts a couple of weeks ago as he was taking a walk through one of the sparcelysettled sections and came upon a littlo country school that httlo school like many others of its type throughout thls country of ours has sent out scholars who becvme leaders in canadas public life replied one of the party who himself graduated from a country school and who today occupies a position of wide influence and of national importance these aro tho univer sities of the rural district continued the speaker and no other institution is of greater importance to canadas national life as a matter of fact i know that this little rural school has a registered attend- once of fifteen pupils last year and from these i have confidence to believe thai one or two at least will bo heard from in the outside world on tuesday of this week the public schools of this nrovinco opened another years work it is difficult to think that any truly publicspirited man can be indifferent to what is involved in this the very stability to our national life depends to z- largean extent on tho training and education of our children and young people that every phase of this is of tho utmost im portance while tho public school is regarded or 5mall importance by ome perhaps yet it in reality occupies a most important pface in the life and edu cation of the child attending ttte secondary and higher educational institutions aro of incalculable value in the work they undertake but unless the elementaryschools give intelligent and comprehen sive reaching in primary studies there is insufficient foundation for the advanced courses which arc to be efc undertaken fundamental indeed are the public kltchoola if a thorough all around practical educa- hon is to

prime minister lloyd george in london the other day before going to the premiers resid ence in downing street mr cox gave out a statement to tho press dealing with the economic plight of europe and quoting the german chancellor dr wlrth as saying to him a few days ago in berlin unless the united states interests herself in euro pean affairs within a very short time all in germany it lost and all in central europe as well mr coxs concludes with the assertion that the fate of the world is ill the hands of tho united states and urges quick action by his country to bring about the rehabilitation
