London, Ont., Nov. 17.--The "Buy- in-Canada" movement was furthered at the 12th annual meeting of the Womens' Institutes of Ontario in this city when more than 400 delegates heard a strong address by Mrs, George Edwards, the Chairman. Mrs. Edwards put five questions to the meeting ask- ing that they be taken home by thc delegates to their institutes and written answers mailed here at once. The questions were as folloows:-- "In your daily buying do you ask for Canadian products? Do you buy the foreign article first because it is cheaper; second, because it is of better quality; or third, because there is no similar article in Canada? Will you please furnish a list of goods produced in Ontario or in Canada that are not equal in price or in quality to similar foreign-made articles? that if our women constantly demand home products your local retailer will supply them? If you believe that a strong and loyal home market will at- tract new industries and settlers, which in turn will reduce the individual bur- den of taxation, will vou pledge your- self in your daily buying to ask for local, Ontario, Canadian or British Empire produc?"

Oxford, England, Nov. 17.--Ox- ford bags, once the rage among the young men here, have been wrested from their place of honor and sent scuttling into dark corners of clos- ets with other cast off pieces of clothing. These roomy ,bloomer-like trou- sers have been banned by all the colleges of Oxford University, and in the movement toward reform even "plus fours" are not to be permitted in the dining halls. Notices in, the dining halls read: "Gentlemen are reminded that they are not allowed to dine in this hall wearing what are vulgarly known as 'plus fours," 'Oxford bags' or any other unseemly or improper ar- ticle of dress." Attached to the notices is a warn- ing that college servants have or- 'ders not only not to serve but to ig- more undergraduates, who are thus attired. This means, as the students see it, that the callege servant be- comes the discriminator and adju- dicator, and if improper dress is worn "we students have to go with- out our eats."

WHEN HEADACHY TAKE "CASCARETS" NO OV TOCNPEL PAY AS HOUSEWIFE Minnesota State Legal Depart- ment Lays Down Dictum St. Paul, Minn., Nov. 17--Mar- ried men in Minnesota don't have to pay salaries to their wives for house work. 'The state legal department says so in an opinon just made public. The tuling was in rgsponse to a query from a perturbed housewife who wrote to Governor Theodore Christianson, asking if wives didn't have a legal right to regular allow- ances, "My neighbor's hired girl can draw a salary of $60 a month with board and room free," said the writer, whose name was withheld. "But I as housewife, get not one cent for my own needs." The attorney general's office re- plied "There is no law. which compels a husband to pay a salary to his wife for house work or to make pay- ments to her at regular intervals for any purpose. 1 "In law, there is little basis for 4 comparison between the house- wife and the hired maid. The lat- ter is, of course, employed for wages, but such employment may be ter- minated at any time. The mar- riage relation, with its correspond- ing obligations, cannot be so easily dissolved." The opinion pointed out, however, that the law '""'does impose upon the husband the obligation to support his wife in a manner suitable to their. station in life--and this al- ways includes consideration of his income."
