Arbor Day used to be observed on the first Friday in May in rural schools by planting of trees and general tidying up of the grounds. Whether this custom is generally followed now we know not. but it seems especially fitting that tree planting should take place on May 6 in such a way that every school may have a lasting memorial of this outstanding event. There is still plenty of time for trustees and teachers to plan for thus marking the King s Jubilee. He who plants a tree, He plants love, Tents of coolness spreading out above. Wayfarers he may not live to see.

I J. S. Woodsworth. M.P., predicts that the C.C.F. will hold the balance of power in the next House of Com- mons: This is very different from the opinion of the Winnipeg Free Press which says: As a live issue. the C.C.F. appears to be fading in politics. It is, whether it struggles against it or not, acquiring reduced volt- ages as it gets older." It is gratifying to the people of this Dominion that the Rt. Hon. R. B. Bennett has sufficiently recovered from his illness to proceed to England to represent. Canada at the celebration of King George's Silver Jubilee. It is hoped that the holiday and sea v0ya;.:e may fully restore the Premier to his customary health, so that he may be able to resume his duties fully when Parliament convenes again. gus, who voted by seven to four against having a bev- erage room forced upon the town by the Liquor Com- missioner in spite of repeated votes to keep the mun- icipality dry, the Fergus News-Record says: "It is an expression of opinion that Fergus got along very well for eighteen years without liquor stores or beer par- lors. and Fergus can get along without having either oi them forced on us now. It is. tlierefore. a healthy jolt. for E. G. Odette. It is also a warning to Premier Hepburn that his wide-open beer policy is not as popular as he may have thought."

The Tomntn Mail and Empire gets itself quite work- ed up over the fact that some advertising of the De- partment ot Highways cautioning motorists to be careful in driving was confined to daily newspapczs favorable to the Government. After referring to the fact that a Liberal newspaper was given the advertis- ing in a certain city although the C(mservati\'e paper ' has four times the circulation. the Mail and Empire says. This is surely Tammany Hall gone mad and the purk barrel to the nth degree". it is rather aniusing to see the leading Tory newspaper breaking nut in this fashion. in \'lC\\' of the fact that it uttered never a word of protest when The Examiner and several other leading weeklies nt the province were l[.{n(Il`Cd by the Henry Government in its educational adver- tising erimpaigns for the Department of lligli\va_vs and the Department of . \griculture, though the (.`niiser\'a- ` tive \\'(`(`kllL`.\` were used. no matter how small the circulation. l i ('0Ml`l~Z'I`lTl0.\' 0|-` HIGHWAYS WITH RAIIJV`.-\\'.\`!

Of this big total of accidents. onlyb1472 were in rural districts. It might be thought that the summer months when tourist traffic is heav- iest would have the laryzest accicient list. but it was not so in Quebec, maximum of accidents occurring in October when 921 mishaps were reported. The con- tention of some that speed is not one of the main ac- cident factors is not borne out `by Quebec's experience. 334$ of last year's accidents having been due to speed- ing. Carelesssness on the part of drivers was to blame for 4484. Drunkenness caused 236 accidents. and de- fective brakes another 622. Autoists crashed into trains 40 times durini.{ the year, into 231 tramways. and into a total of 3,444 other autos in all. 433 accidents occurred on curves, 312 on hills. 107 on bridges, (53 at level crossings and 2,727 at intersections. Such Iigures as these from Quebec should emphasize the great need of the czunpaign for safety now being carried on and the importance of motorists exercising "courtesy. care and common sense".

The. bill is still before the House of Representatives. but is not expected to meet with much opposition.
