This fact. Dr. Kelly points out, On the whole, with good crops, pleanty fow ork for all willingly to labor, arid a Dominion election some years off, it is difficult to get Can- adian people excited about politics this year. • • • The Women's Institute have done is well known to scientists, and is a public service, for which they de now generally admitted by progres- sive members of the medical profes- sion. The view is contrary to be- liefs which have been held for gen- erations, and are therfore hard to dis- place. Nevertheless Dr. Keilly af- serve the thanks of the community. They have had the fence of the Flesh- reton Memorial Park painted, and the grass cut away. The Park would be still further improved if the long grass and weeds inside and outside firms that alcohol does not cure, the fence were cut down.

Railways will not employ men who are drinkers of intoxicants, and the law providci that drivers of auto- mobiles found under the influence of liquor are to l;e imprisoned, and Buch men arc now lieing committed to prison and deprived of their lib- erty to control an auto. It has been shown that a man who is fil- led up with liquor lo.?es the ability to form a «iuick judgment and to supply liciuor to an autoist endanger.-? life, and has in numerous instance.? resulted in homicide. The medical profession certainly has made great strides since, on the one hand doctors generally prescribed whiskey as a curative agency, while at the same time they freely resort- ed to Weeding their patients. Now â- we have the reverse operation; blood transfusion is the practise. In the last century they put whiskey into a patient and took blood out of him. Modern practise ha^ reversed the process. .'They keep â- whiskey out of him and put blood in â€" Dr. Kelly argues that there is real- ly nothing to be said in favor of the consumption of intoxicants as med- icine or as a beverage, and that the injury to the human race through the use of the^e li(iuors completely overbalances any litUe benefit that may be derived by their occasional use as a drug. This expert phys- ician, indeed, ventures the prophesy that in another decade the prescrip- A correspondent of the Toronto Mail and Empire rebuke.s that organ for its ineonsistuency in approving of the imprisonment of a man found intoxicated in drving a car, while commending the decision of a magis- trate that an autoist is at liberty to carry an open bottle of liquor with him provided it was opened in a "leg- al place" and taken to another for con- sumpton. It must not be consumed in transit. This is represented to be the law in Ontario. If it is, it is nigh time there was c change. If a car driver can carry liquor in an op- en bottle from place to plaiCj what in the world will prevent him from imbibing to his heart's content while en route to the other place, hereby placing himself in jeopardy and in- perilling his life and the live.: of others. Fearful and wonderful is the law, if its endorses rightly inter- pet it. « • * There is still much discu.-.sion a- bout inmiigration into Canada and the best means of having the newcomers made into self supporting settlers. After all, the i>rincipal point to be met with is thi; enioloynient. If we can have the immigrant assisted to settle on the land and enabled to earn an all the year round living for themselves that is ,the ideal meeting of the problemn. When however, we have a demand for the importat- ion of settlers for employment on Mr. and Mrs. T. R. Cook 'of De- troit, Mrs. Victor Fairweather and son, Gordon of Toronto, Mrs. W.

Oliver, JI.P.P., gave a synopsis of ths work of the sessions in the both Houses, during the past .six months, was only attended by a small crowd, due to the fact that the day was fine harv- esing weather, and the farmers were therefore taking advantage.

She also spoke on the momentous occasion of the signing by the prin- cipal nations of the world to outlaw was as a. national pol- icy. She stated that she would like to see Canada have an equal status, but was in favor of remaining in the British Commonwealth of Nations, regardless of people trying to say that she stood otherwise.
