Borden asid that the success of de- mocracy was by no means assured. There were dangers facing the world to-day to which the Roman Empire and its successors were never ex- posed. Hence he argued that every man ought to give some part of his time to public affairs. "Every one of you ought to take your own pait in the government of your city, your province and the Dominion. Those of you who do not are mere drones, and you know what happens to the drones in the democ- racy of bees. This right to govern yourselves is more than a privilege; it is a duty, and if it is not your duty, whose is it? When I was in public life I would rather see a young man allied with a party opposed to me than with no party at all, and that is my feeling to-day. "II politics are dirty to-day and I don't say they are it is the fault of those who stand aside and assume the 'I'm holier than thou" attitude. Instead of doing that, it is the duty of every one of you to go in and make them clean." Democracy is not assurred by giv- ing the franchise to every man and woman, and would not be assured by any improvement in election machin- ery. The recording of the vote is no more important than the thought behind the vote. If active partici- pation in politics is confined to selfish or narrow partisans, those who hold aloof must share the blame for the dvgredation of politics. Every elector has it in his or her power to do some- thing towards shaping the course of public affairs. Getting There Here, Too The seriousness of financial condi- tions confronting rural municipalities in Manitoba was emphasized laRt week when Dr. Robt. Fletcher, Dep. Minister of Education, announced thiit 131 Public School* with 144 class room and providing education to ap- proximately 11,000 pupils have been closed this fall in the Province. They were closed, Dr. Fletcher told the officials of the Union of Municipali- ties, because the municipalities are not in a position to provide for expen- diture necessary for their mainten- ance. The school at Elm Creek, where five teachers were employed, wax forced to close at the end of September after operatng one month. The Deputy Minister also stated that several other schools had been closed on account of small attendance. The case of education has reached its limit in those parts of Manitoba. A steer belonging to David Bow- es, near Blyth, was buried in a straw stack for 17 days and was little the worse when rescued. Strange things man has done to its humble animal brothers. The orien- tal makes the pelican catch fish, and with ring around th poor bird's neck prevents swallowing. Elephants and dogs have been used in battle, and hives of bees have drop- ped upon soldiers besieging a city. Dogs help men to beg, guinea pigs patiently endure vivesection in the interest of science. Horses supply serum to fight disease. White rats in thousands are used for cancer ex- periments, while mice, highly strung, were kept in the trenches. They noticed poison gas long before the men felt it. Now comes the latest. A man tains eats to hate lamps. They rush at and knock over any kerosene lamp. Such a cat is worth $260. The cat* are sold to gentlemen that want the store to catch fire while they re away. Cat and lighted lamp are left together then comes the fire. How the cat is trained to hate lamps th* Insurance people do not say. But it can be dene.

E. Walters, seere- < tary-treasurcr. What might have resulted in a very serious train wreck was avoided | in the nick of time on the Canadian | Pacific Railway Parry Sound sub-div- '. ision, by section foreman Conzuni, win i, while patrolling the track near ; Brignall, recently discovered two | large iron nuts on top of the rails, se- ! curoly fastened with hay wire. The foreman had just time to unfasten the wire and remove the nuts to clear the track for a train was due in five minutes. Two boys in the vicinity admitted, after questioning, that they ' wired the nuts to the rails. They were sentenced to the local shelter for one month and their fathers were required to give bond and report to the authorities for two years.
