Robert Thompson, Plesiher- ton. the marriage to take place quietly the end oof June. "I>o you "do your awn wprk, or do yini keep a maid?" askdd one lady of another. "Ye.3, I do," was the reply. "Do which?" cMne tke punled r«joind*r. "Keep a maid Mid d» My own work." waa ^« w»,Tf nfkf. It sometimes is hard to retain the dteply-held conviction that freedom of speech â€" 'whatever the word spok- en â€" is the essential of all freedom. It is difficult because this freedom is used to support such tawdry, such vicious, such insincere causes, pn- moted by such deluded if not design- ing men. Can anyone believe that the V'ery Reverend Hewlett Johnson, Dean of Canterbury, or his Canadian imita- tor, the Rev. James G. Endicott. are deeply concerned for the peace of the world than are the rest of us. or that such concern as they ^ have is no: touched by the meagre vanity of working for a peaice of their owi devising ? Can anyone beWeve that the thou- sands who attended the recent meet- ing at Massey Hal!. Toronto, to hear the "Red Dean" speak, came with I sincere and questiomng and open I minds, or can they doubt that they came otherwise than in the spirit in which the Very Reverend Dean ami his less impressive oountrpart set oui. on their various journeys, with a mind open to the sights it wanted to see, the words it wanted to hear and the delusions it wanted tc embrace ? Cau anyone believe that when Dr. Johnson blandly states that "every- thing points to the Soviet Union wanting peace," that "they talk peace, think peace and work for peace." that "Stalin has repeatedly shown his wilHtngness to talk peac but the western powers have scorned his otfer." he is not parroting views that "have been presented to ;\ vai:' and gullible man ready, if not eager, to be confused and dehtded. On another occasion the Reverend Dean said: "Nothing strikes the vis- itor to the Soviet Union more fore iUy than the absence of fear." a statement hard to square with the reports of those escaped from behir.d the Iron Curtain. Or again: "I know of no country whei-e hun.un life :s reganied so h'ghly as in :he Sovi.t I'nivw." and "The things done in Ea>tern Europe should be Acl.-omed as they are things we h.-iv- beei nroachintr about for two thousand years." With all the eividetKe of detached I a-ul dis'passionate witness*-;, w,;h th< tragic story of Cardinal M;ndszent>, and the record of the Conrmun'<t at- titude to the CJiristion church 'wfor-; us. such tr««atnients should be the measure of the heights and d^oll:-" ef the "Red Dean's" delusions, a com- mentary on the op«n-mindedness of those who eag«rly listen to him and on the purposes of the CanacBan Peace Congress who, in the name of peace, bring delxtsion. >.vr worse, to be our inspiration and our guide.

Newspaper Mistakes Every once in a while one hears the remark that newspapers make too many mistakes. Well, don't we aU? Can you intagine that, news- paper making errors. Yes. Shey certainly do make errors and heaps of them, and so do people who criti- cize the mistakes made by the news- papers. Consider for a moment if you will . . . did you ever hear of the woman who forgot to put the tea in the tea- pot of hot water; the woman who forgot to salt the potatoes or meat; the lawyer who lost a case because he made some mistake: the clerk iwho never made an error putting up an order; the doctor who never made • wrong diagnosis: a postal employee who never put mail in the wTOr.g box; a carpenter who never sawed a valuable board off at the wroug place or the druggist who never ... Oh well, why 'oother? That's the ideal Why 'oother to print the entire list? But furoher still, it: what profession do any mis- takes come more to the general pub- lic notice than in the ease of the newspaper? It would also be en- lightening if some ot the critics who make the most of petty mistakes in rw'wspapers had an opportunity to k"L^w about the hundreds of mistakes neiwspaper people correct for other persons each year. â€" Kitchener-Wat- erloo Record.
