TORONTO OFFICE: 407 Bond Building, 66 Temperance Street, Telephone Adelaide 0107, H. D. Tresidder, representative. TUESDAY, JULY 12, 1927 THE GLORIOUS TWELFTH h Only in Ireland and in Canada, so far as we have been able to discover, is the Twelfth of July celebrated, If there are Orangeman and Orange Lodges in the United States, we have néver been able to secure information to that effect. But in Canada the Glorious Twelfth is 'an important day and one wonders whether the occasion is any more generally observed in Bel- fast than it is in Toronto, where fully one half of the population seems to regard the Twelfth as a holiday, Oshawa has its fine representa- tion of Orangemen, too, and after the rehears- ing they have been doing recently they will, without doubt, give a good account of them- selves, The Orangemen of today are a lot of jolly, good fellows who use their celebration for the purpose of having a good time, The feuds of carlier times are now almost forgotten and it weculd be a serious mistake to imagine that Orangemen are seeking to keep alive racial and sectarian divisions and prejudices, Two hundred and thirty-seven years ago, on July the first, 1690 (the first became the twelfth by the change in the calendar in 1752) King "Billy" crossed the Boyne River at the head of his troops and defeated the forces of ex-King James, who was watching the battle from a comfortable distance, After the en- counter an Irishman called out, "Change kings with us and we will fight you again: King James had tried to rule without the aid of Parliament and he had also attempted to force his own religious beliefs on his subjects, So the celebration of the Battle of the Boyne is intended as a commemoration of the dawn of civil and religious liberty in Great Britain, On the Twelfth of July some speakers are apt to refer to the dangers involved in the teaching of French in the schools of Ontario, Just what these dangers can be it is difficult to realize. To the average man it would appear desirable that 'Canadians should be able to speak fluently both English and French. Wil- liam of Orange, it is interesting to read, spoke English so imperfectly that his Speech from the Throne was always written in French, At this time the great desideratum is Can- adian national unity, Towards this essential aim the Orangemen of Canada have contributed much and can contribute more. The Orange Order has become a powerful fraternal and benevolent organization and everyone wishes its stalwart members an excellent time on the occasion of the annual celebration. THE WORLE FEDERATION Next month, August 7 to 12, the second Liennial conference of the World Federation of Kducation Associations is to be held at the University of Toronto. Already nearly three thousand delegates have registered and the .rospects are that the number will exceed five {housand and may approach ten thousand. some hundreds are coming from England and Scotland, thousands from Canada and the United States, and there will be representatives irom every country in Europe, except possibly Russia, from South Africa, Australia, China, Japan, India, Mexico, and South America. Premier Stanley Baldwin has written to the teachers of England, pointing out the import- ance of this gathering and urging them to at- tend if at all possible. He says that they will derive immense benefit from making the acquaintance of their fellow-teachers whose work lies in other parts of the world. At this great conference all phases of educa- tion will be discussed. Promoters of new ideas will have an opportunity to explain their pet forest because of their intense interest in the trees. All education is not imparted in the classroom, To teach the same old subjects in the same old way, using the same old notes and the same old strap, is not necessarily educa- tion, Inspiration is needed to make teaching a profession and not a trade. And it is at con- ferences of teachers that inspiration is secured. It does not cost anything to attend this mon- ster conference on education and attendance there will pay dividends to the intelligent teacher: It is td be hoped that the teachers of the Province will be alive to the opportunity. COMMUNIST CANDIDATES At a recent meeting of the Toronto Trades and Labour Council, the Canadian Labour party submitted its nominations for the Board of Control, the City Council, and the Board of Education of that city, Included among these nominations were the names of three or four who have, on previous occasions, admitted and almost boasted that they are .communists, / Labour does itself no good, but on the con- trary, a great deal of harm by letting the im- pression spread abroad that there are com- munists in its ranks, Labour would make greater progress towards its goal if it repelled, ejected and ostracizéd communists, Of course, it may be said that these nomina- tions are a joke, that these candidates even though put forward six months in advance, have not the slightest chance of election, Per- haps so; but real labour candidates might have a fairly good chance if the electors were posi- tive that such candidates had on them or in them no tinge of red, Hon, J, H. Thomas, a labour leader in Eng- land and a former cabinet minister, warned Russia the other day that it was futile to send money from Moscow in the hope of stirring up a revolution. among English workers. Canadian labour leaders might well send, the same warn- ing from here. But as long as Moscow sends money, the BSoviet's deluded agents in all countries will put up a bluff that they are earn- ing their pay, Some labour organizations in Canada have already expelled the communists who had crept into their councils. If all labour bodies would do the same, they woul dgain greatly in public tavour, C, CANADA On numerous occasions lately, we have been at functions where the song "0, Canada," was announced, In each case the procedure was the same. The band or the choir began beauti- fully and did well, but almost nobody sang, Some hummed just to show their good inten- tions, The National Anthem and "The Maple Leaf" were sung with zest and volume, but "0, Canada" fell flat every time, The trouble is that no one knows the words, Ahd that is no cause for wonder, since there are ten different versions, Some one in authority must give us the words of one verse so that we may stick to that with the knowledge that we are right and sing it as lustily as we do the National Anthem. The tune, (or should we say the music?) is magnificent and inspiring but the demand is for words that we can swear by and not at.

THEY MAKE ONE NERVOUS (Brantford Expostior) The St. Thomas Times-Journal makes the following pointed ohser- vation in its editorial columns: "A judge in London rebuked a girl for applying powder to her nose and lipstick to her lips. 'This | court," he told her, "is not a dress- | ing room."

There have been many in- lications that these points are rea- lized by the dictators of Russia. They could have found plenty of axcuses for war at any time within the last five or six years, if they had wanted to fight. But they have not dared ever to pick:on such a weak country as Rumania. No doubt they fear that a war of any duration would bring on a revolution that would seal their doom, PAPERS AND THE COMMUNITY (Stratford Beacon-Herald) The newspapers are criticized more than they are commended. They are eriticized because they printed this or failed to print that; hecause they gave too much space to one story and too little to an- other, But the papers continue on their way knowing that they are filling an increasingly important part in the affairs of the community, They realize that heing human, they commit mistakes,erring in judg ment 'and in fact, 'They realize too that these mistakes. while al ways regrettable and freqently the result of insuffiient time for con- sideration and verification, are in- frequent, compared with the vast amount of matter which 1s correctly presented to the reader, That Body of .

In the majority ol cases it is due o infection from teeth and tonsils. ne other cause and one that is sel- lom thought of is that these joints an be sprained, just as can the inkle, knee, or other joint, It is stimated: by Boston specialists that serhaps twenty-five per cent. ol hese backaches are due to sprain. There 'is this point also to re- member, and that is that one might ive an infection in the joint, have he offending teeth or tonsils re- moved and get relief, and some months or years afterwards, sprain the joint and set up a new firrita- tion . So'severe are some of these lower back pains, extending often down in to the sciatic nerve in hip and leg, that very severe measures for re lieving same have heen suggested, br. C. E. Ayres of Worcester, Mass., says that the most effective way of dealing with this condition 'rom pain and perhaps such a sur- sical procédure is sometimes mneces- sary. However, in the majority of these cases, as treated at the Massa- husetts General Hospital, Hoston, a simple tight strapping with two inch idhesive from a point an inch below the point of hip bone on one side across the lower back to the same point on the other side, gives great relief, After about six days, the strapping is removed and a supporct- ing belt adjusted, This is worn for months so that the movement in joint is limited, and the pain, even even on exertion, gradually disap- pears, .

The teachers of Oshawa and of Ontario have an opportunity this summer which may not be theirs again for a quarter of a century. Here at their doors will take place the greatest cducational gathering that the world has ever known. It will be worth while even to see teachers and amateur educationists of other lands. Some teachers there are who scorn such con- ferences -- they know all about education al- ready. But that is one of the failing to which certain teachers are prone.
