WHAT PRICE GLORY?â€"If <+by e miracle of prevision the conâ€" testants of previous wars (and there are some in this post) could have seen the scientific slaughter that attended the last great war, then would there have been no war, with its dreadful aftermath of poverty and poignant suffering among the survivors. Even in the last few months‘ there have been two cases in Timmins of veterâ€" ans who have through mental trouble to be admitted to hospital for treatâ€" ment. It is generally recognized by the medical profession that the unâ€" precedented â€" mental _ and â€" physical strain of the last war will be felt more as age advances.

So often do my duties as secretary carry my hmpmg feet to the office of the president, Dr. 8. R. Harrison, that almost am I afraid to venture in his presence. Were it not for the unfailing courtesy ever shown to me, and for the beneficial advice and guiâ€" dance always willingly given me for the conduct of the legion‘s affairs, one would hesitate to take up so much of his valuable time.

He venâ€" tured the forecast that within fifteen years there would be a vast playâ€" zround on the shores of James Bay, which would prove the favorite sumâ€" mer resort of the province. Both the railway and the highway would be continued through, he sald and the tourists from the south would come in millions. There was a danger that this might fall into the hands of outâ€" siders, he said, and the people of Ontario should get busy and see that it was held ifor the province. ‘*Mr. Moore devoted the greater part of his address to the culture of flowers suitable to this section of the country, giving lists of many favorâ€" ites, both old and new, and explaining how they should be attended to. The majority of them, he said, should be started indoors and later transplanted on account of the shorter season here. as compared with Southern Ontario. By this means the season of bloom ‘an be extended by several weeks and it pays well for the extra trouble. Perhaps more time was devoted to the care and culture of dabhlias than to any other variety, and the speaker answered many questions by the audâ€" ience and gave a fund of very valuâ€" able information.

Moore, lecturer on horticulture, The Haileyburian last week says :â€" ‘*Only about twenty people were present in the Uniteéd Church baseâ€" ment last night to hear the lecture on horticulture given by Henry J.
