â€"and baldheadsâ€"and the same economic laws applyâ€"supply and demandâ€"the supply of hair and the demand of the barbers. In Chicasha, Oklahoma. the baldheaded men have formed a union. They call themselves the Brotherhood of Burnished Brows, but whether they intend to have an international union and whether that international union is to be C.I.0O. or A. F. of L. deponent saith not, and neither does The Calgary Albertan. <~It will take all the wellâ€"known diploâ€" macy and tact of Premier Hepburnâ€"with the front of him sympathetic to the Baidheaded Union and the back of him with the barbersâ€"to stop the trouble at the international border, in case the Baldheaded Boys stage a sitâ€"down in the barber chairs and the barbers walkâ€"out on them. . The Brotherhood of Burnished Brows have their grievâ€" ance. They burn beneath the injustice of paying forty cents in Oklahoma money for a haircut while the fellows with toussles of hair pay no more. They If Calgary, Alberta, can worry about a thing like this, there is no reason why Timmins, Ontario, has not the same license. There are barbers here A%Ai OHl It is a smali world. There has been a revolt of the baldheaded men of Chicasha, Oklahoma, Unitâ€" ed states of America, and the repercussions have reached Calgary, Alberta, Dominion of Canada. In Chicasha, Oklahoma, there is trouble between the baldheaded men and the barbers, and The Calâ€" gary Albertan, a newspaper of the wide open spaces where Mounties get their manâ€"be he baldheadâ€" ed as Calgary‘s most noted citizen, or as bewhiskerâ€" ed as any of the Doukhobors of the Great Westâ€" jumps into the dispute. It might be thought that Calgary had enough to worry about in its Social Credit Premier Aberhart without taking sides with either the barbers or the baldheads of Chicasha, Oklahoma. It may be that the Calgary newspaper interposes itself into imaginary trouble at a disâ€" tance to relieve its mind of real troubles nearer homeâ€"while the staff waits for that promised dividend of $25 per month. fence of hif folks, saying head the m« it cut, as tI hunting A#he despatching ring to the baldness of the head of one of the old Hebrew prophets.

Thosd in favour of daylight saving time did not sit back and let those opposed go thsir way without question. Instcad. a counterâ€"petition was organized. This petition was also largely signed. Inâ€" deed, it had a total of 698 names on «P t PP ~AP {GRAVEL AND SANDâ€"AND PLACER Some of the British newspapers felt that they saw the point in one form of Japanese humour. when Mr. Wakato Watanabee, a noted Japanese author, called upon the British Ambassador, and gave him what was termed an ancestral sword as a present for Mr. Eden, with the added words that Mr. Eden "had done his best in a most difficult situation." ‘"What telling humour!" said the British newspapers opposed to Premier Chamberâ€" lain. "What a delicate but ironic way of reprovâ€" ing the Premier and complimenting Mr. Eden!" These newspapers, however, were not so certain that they had the true insight into Japanese humour, when it was later discovered that the "anâ€" cestral sword" is the kind used in Japan for comâ€" mitting hariâ€"kari or ceremonial suicide. Some other British newspapers now see humour in the gift, but it is doubtful if any Britisher appreciates that form of Japanese humour. Some British newspapers recently have been| having difficulty with what appears to be a sample 1 of Japanese humour. . Each country appears to| have its own particular brand of humour, and the| Oriental form is among the most difficult for those of other lands to understand. To the average‘ Britisher there is nothing appealing in the humour ‘ of raining death from the sky upon defenceless people. It may be that if all the nations of the eéarth could fathom each other‘s humour, wars| might be avoided, or at least counter pranks might be discovered to offset many of the illâ€"timed jokes. When Senator Duncan Marshall was Minister of Agricuiture for Ontario he bought a $15,000 bull for the Ontario Agricultural College.: Hon.! George Henry, Holly Acres and a lot of other Tory members of the Legislature thought that a lot of bullâ€"and said soâ€"â€"which was more bull. The other day that $15,000 bullâ€"bearing the builâ€"like | name, "Millhill‘s Ransom"â€"just up and died, lige' any common bull. The learned doctors of veterâ€"; inary science gave the cause ol death as acute gastritis, but the common herd are not satisfied that this was really what ailed that $15,000 bunch of bull. Some think that the name given the| beast was enough to kill any selfâ€"respecting aniâ€". mal. Others imagine that the $15,000 bull has| been ailing ever since Hon. Mr. Marshall has been; a Senator. Still others wonder if the fact that just a few days before a photograph was published ‘ showing the bull with Holly Acres‘ arm around his| neck might not have been a killing sorrow to thcz- noble animzal. But there is no cause for worryl over the matter. With everything as it is at present in Ontario toâ€"day, the loss of $15.000E worth of bull doesn‘t make any particular differâ€". ence in the life of this young province. In discussing the case of the mob who jostled and abused Dr. Bruce recently in the corridor of the parliament buildings, a certain or uncertain Toronto newspaper explains the disorder by sayâ€" ing that Dr. Bruce told of osteopaths who have wrongly diagnosed cases with disastrous results. "But," concludes the certain or uncertain newsâ€" paper, "have there not been thousands of similar mistakes made also by the medical profession?" So, what? Would the certain or uncertain newsâ€" paper care to be mobbed for saying so? The churches and the Jewish people are not the only forces for good that are banned by dictators. Austria now joins the other enslaved nations of Germany, Russia and Italy in banning the Boy sScouts. There were 10,466 Boy Scouts in Austria, and these are now to fall under compulsory disâ€" bandment. It is interesting to note that Czechoâ€" slovakia, with a population of 14,700,000, has 25.â€" 236 Boy Scouts and leaders. Word from Toronto is to the effect that the provincial authorities have discovered those reâ€" sponsible for the recent attack upon Dr. Bruce in the corridor of the legislative buildings, but that the guilty parties are not to be brought to court and punishment, because Dr. Bruce does not wish any further action. While it shows the generous and patient disposition of the former Lieutenantâ€" Governor to drop the case, it is regrettable that those responsible are not fully and publicly exâ€" posed, so that all might know who they are and the real incentive that prompted them. Some of the names suggested as the new leadter of the Conservative party in the Dominion imply that there are people who would replace a leader with a touch of heart trouble for one with a touch of head trouble.
