It ought .'to `be an easy matter for Canada and Bri- tain to decide whether the Island is worth _claiming and whether the Empire has a _fair right to it. The public cannot decide! [such issues and must take their lead from! `the facts as `presented to them by their gov-' 'c-rnnients. Neither in Ottawa or London does there seem to have been any of the ;enthusiasm over Wrangel Island which the lstefansson parties displayed.

Earth's Quakes The earthquakes in question were record- ed in many countries of the world on the seismograph. an instrument invented by! John Milne. a Scotsman, who had a unique} experience in Japan. particularly in the building of railways which would withstand ordinary earthquake shocks. The recent earthquakes were known to have taken` place owingto the rec'orda automatically made by this instrument in Canada and in other countries before any actual deapatchcs got through from Japan. The theory of scientists that in many cues earthquakes originate in the sea, seems to be borne out in this case by the immense tidal waves which added to the damage and the horror. Once more man is reminded that-"n-.1ture has not been conquered. Canada's interest `in the Japanese d`saster was increased by the ifact of many missionaries from this co~.1ntr_\ Ibeing there. and much property being own- led by their respective churches. _...-- ... --'._... ' i The scientists throughout the world have idevoted much study to earthquakes and their cause without being absolutely cer- tain of the origin of the latter. Nor are they able to take any measures or suggest! any stepsiwhich might give a warning to~ `the people of countries where earthquakes are a common occurrence. Japan is one of these; Although it is so often described as The Flowery Kingdom?` it might with is-qua! truth be referred to as the "land Inf earthquakes." Excep` in the ages of the past. however. none of these has been re- isrponeihle for such great love of life and isuch material damage as the recent series of quakes experienced in two days. The iwhoie civilized world is trying to aid Japan in the hour of her sorrow, but-it is Japan herself that must do the -lion's share in the work of rehabilitation. She may be trusted to do this. with courage and inspiration. She will. m-vert-hel3*s. be grateful to the na-I tions which in her hour of need` have shown ithat humanity knows. no boundaries. For almost a month Canada _will have the heir to the British throne as a resident. Under the title of Lord Renfrew he came to this country on a C.P.R. `passenger vessel. `He mingled with the other passengers and :was. in fact, simply a titled gentleman, and not the _most popular prince on earth. to` whom this country would have been glad to have extended a series of tumultuous greet- lings and t-riumphal processions. There is lnothing strange in the desire and curiosity I I-l.R.l-l. the `Prince of Wales travels to .Canada as the Earl of Ranfrew on 8. regular {passenger ship and as {regular cabin pas~ lsenger. He will spend about one month on his ranch in Alberta. The illustration shows him playing polo. of_t'.he people that a Prince who has provedl to besuch a tremendously popular man should marry, and there have been some hints that his visit to his Canadian ranch in Alberta presages a last bachelor trip. Whether these have good foundation or not cannot make the Prince less beloved by the people of the Empire. It is to be hoped that the best Canadian weather will help to make his stay one that he will cherish in the years to come. ' the German reparations isue. It may be taken for granted that the` intimation of France. that she did not intend -to pay any of her debt to the United States or to Great Britain until Germany had paid her, has been a very poor advertisement for Premier Poincare and his fellow-country men- If Britain had taken that attitude in regard to her debt to the United States lthen would have been another internation- .al entanglement which would not have been an ninnnln no Alhl :1. `Hana 3n AHA n-at :nn- } There is thxemelolideihnnging over ll UIIIIIIEELLIULIII WHICH WUIIIIJ IE1!

Tlfs is not confirmed but the press des- ipatches seem to indicate. with increasing temphasis. that the irreducible minimum ' zcf French demands may after all contain a little elastic. 1 While Britain continues to snow to France and her other allies inthe war a striking example of fortitude in the way'_ of shoulder- ling financial burdens so that her debts may be met. she must face a serious problem at home this winter-that of unemployment. It is predicted that the out-of-works in Bri- tain will almost t-ouchthe two million mark by Christmas time because the unrest and financial stringency on the continent. for- mented by the action of Italy against Greece. will make it still more difficult for British export trade to recover itself. Al- ready twenty-three million pounds have been spent in efforts to cope with unemployment. against an original estimate of ten million pounds. But the govemment is taking steps to co-operate in the way of further large money grants to various municipali- ties, to provide work. Municipal undertak~ ings of a varied nature including docks and lharbors, tramways, the reclamation of land, .etc., are included in the plan which it is hoped will provide work for at least three hundred thousand men. In Britain there is a great revival in ath- letic sports as distinguished from profession- :11 football which `has. of course, its mil- ilions of votaries. The Great War reaped `the -flower of British manhood, including `many of its famous athletes, and athletes I who had just begun to show prominence. The result was a decline in the interest in sports as well as a lack of material to par- ticipate. British sport lovers are hopeful now that their country will make a much better showing at the next Olympiad than ---`mu - uwrviv vu--woo I There are voices in Britain crying out protests against further reductions in the army and against the scrapping of war ves- sels. It is to be noted. however, that with- iin the last few weeks the British have launched a submarine which excels every- thing else of that kind both as to offensive powers and speed. She has turned out a battle ship with guns so placed in the tur- rets as. to give her advantages which no other battleship possesses. She is testing a device designed to do away with the rolling of ships. especially when they are firing tY1e'r g=.'.ns. and has successfully tested a seaplane which can fire a torpedo of un- usual weight at` a very great speed. In ad- dition. her new land tanks for army use have more than fulfilled the promise of the inventors as to speed and armament carrying capacities. Britain does not want war. th t is certain, but she isshnwing the `world t at she is quite capable of keeping in the front of military equipment. Revival in British Athletics FORD HOTOI COHPARI O!
