This declaration, it is understood, has been definitely reached, and local tribunals will\nlie guided by it.

A man's occu\npatlon will be a factor of first im\nportance, but. each individual claim\nwill be dealt with on its merits.

At tho session with\ntho employees it had been strongly\nurged that the men should return to\nwork pending an investigation and a,\nsettlement. The matter is being dismissed by the men behind closed doors\ntonight, and It is possible that this\nwill bo the solution.\nThe employers claim that they had\nno notice of any intention of the men\nquilting and the first intimation was\nwhen the men, who are paid on an\nhourly basis, did not turn up this\nmorning. Some employees came to\nthe Consolidated elevator this morning, but wore warned off by the\nstrikers. The men state that this Is\nthe result of the refusal of the employers to accede to their demands In\ntho summer for a scale of -10 cents per\nhour with lime and a half on night\nshifts and double time on Sundays\nand holidays. The present scale Is\n35 cents for all hours worked. The\nndvance in wages since the. fall of\n1914 is about 40 per cent. The board\nof grain commissioners is keeping in\nconstant touch with the department\nof labor at Ottawa, and there is no\nfoundation for the rumors that the\nmilitia will be called out to deal with\nthe situation. All proceedings have\nfar been quite orderly. According\nto the operators, SO per cent, and according to the men, 40 per cent, of the\nmen on strike are of alien enemy\norigin.

The\nLondon Daily Telegraph's views are\ntypical of what appears to be the general opinion of the attempt to oust\nthe war ^government from control. It\nremarks that ever since the Lloyd\nGeorge adminstration took office\n\"there have been hints and rumors of\nnew political organizations from this'\nquarter and that. Among those, indeed, who are able to bring themselves\nto, the necessary condition of mind, It\nhas been much more than a matter of\nhints and rumors; schemes of the sort\nhave been busily discussed and a considerable amount of quiet progress\nmade with the congenial business of\nplotting nnd maneuvering, securicd financial support, winning over this person and getting rid of that.

This\nIs In face of the fact that German\noverseas trade had for years been\ngrowing at a marvelous rate, even in\nthe British Empire, which German\napologists like to present as having\nhad a death grip on Germany which\nhad to be broken at all costs.\nBut here arises \"Vice-Chancellor\nllplfferlch before the main committee\nof* tho, reichslag to inform Germans\nthat had it not been for tho outbreak\nof war, Germany's trade by 11117, at\nthe rate at .which it was increasing\nbefore the War, would have reached\nthe level of Great Britain's trade.\nAnd only the next day another German statesman arose to explain that\nGermany simpU had to go to war in\nOrder to protect Its commerce.\nNO JOY  IN  BEING AN  ISLAND IN\nAN   OCEAN  OF WAR\n: Switzerland has been in a position\nOJLiU.fficulty ever since^tht-'.war began\nand it docs not. find the ^situation becoming any easier as the struggle\ncontinues. In the beginning of 1915\nSwitzerland had to appeal to both sets\nof belligerents for concessions in the\nadmission of exports. At that time\nthe Swiss manufacturer was being\nstrangled by lack of raw materials. He\ncould obtain many of them from Austria;, but Austria refused to release\nthem unless the Swiss would export\nflee to the dual monarchy. Switzerland-could get rice only by permission\nof the entente and naturally the entente Would not allow the Swiss to\nbecome a channel of food supply to\nthe Teutons,.\nThat is one example of the difficulties of the situation In which Switzerland has. been placed. It Is looking\nforward anxiously to the coming winter, the question again is one of raw\nmaterials.

It is the basis of all\nmodern civilization, and Is the one\nthing a failure of which would result\nin totally nullifying every other activ\nity of tho nation in the direction of\nservice. This fact has been universally\nrecognized by all countries nt war,\nand the effective marshalling of the\nmeans of transportation has in every\ninstance received the Immediate attention of every government.\nThe greatest advantage which Germany had in the war was tho preparation which had been made in adapting\nthe German railways to war purposes.\nA network of strategic railways existed along both the western and eastern\nfrontiers and these two system? were\nconnected by trunk lines across the\ncountry which has made possible the\nrapid transferring of units from one\nfront to the other ns occasion required,\nas well as the massing of units at any\nparticular point on cither front. It has\nbeen made evident that one of \\he chief\nTeb.s|on& why Germany brought on the\nwar in 1914, instead of waiting until a\nlater date, was the deBlrc to profit by\nthe overwhelming transportation advantages existing on the eastern front,\nand to anticipate the completion of the\nsystem of strategic railways aoout to\nbe constructed in Russia along tho\nCourland and Poland boundaries.\nIn Germany all the railways were\ngovernment owned and operated. In\nFrance the railways were mostly government owned and operated and those\nwhich still were actually under private\nownership were in effect under government operation on account of the very\nclose supervision and control maintained over them. The railways of\nEngland were privately owned and\noperated, like the railways on this continent, but at the outset of war the immediate need of government control\nand direction was recognized and steps\nwere taken which in effect turned the\nrailways over to tho government. The\ncurrent dividends were guaranteed to\nthe shareholders, but the railroads nt\nonce were operated by the railway\nmanagers for government account and\nunder government direction. The consequence was a remarkably quick and\neffective coordination of transportation effectiveness, with the result of\nincalculable benefit In permitting the\nresources of Great Britain to be mobilized for the war.\nIn the. United States the progress toward government operation has not\nbeen as greal, but nevertheless one of\nthe chief things immediately put Into\neffect upon entrance into the war was\nwhat was practically a railroad-dictatorship. Mr. Willard, president of the\nB. & O., was given authority under\nwhich he has required from the railways that coordination and cooperation\nwhich Is vital at times like these.\nIn Canada the railways have for\nmany years been subject lo the control\nof a railway commission, which has\nundoubtedly been of great value in\npreventing selfish exploitation of the\npublic. I do not think, however, that\nthis control is sufficient to meet the\nextraordinary requirements of these\nextraordinary times and In my opinion\nthere ought to have been at the beginning a long step taken townrd nationalization of the railway, certainly\nin operation If not in ownership. The\nfact that this was not at once done Is\nno reason why it should not.he done\nnow.\nOf tho principal railway systems in\nCanada, only the C. P. R. is on a satisfactory financial basis. The Grand\nTrunk system has been struggling\nalong from hand to mouth for many\nyears, and the National Transcontinental system, intended to be operated\nIn connection with the Grand Trunk\nand finally to be taken over by it, hud\nto bo acquired and operated by the\ngovernment in order to protect the investment of Canadian public moneys\nmade in it. The C. N. R. is insolvent\ntoday in spite of the' large subsidies\ngiven It by the government and by the\nprovinces.\n\u25a0 There Is little question but what both\nthe C. N. R. and the Grand Trunk systems must be nationalized in the Immediate future, unless the C. P. R. is\nto be allowed to swallow them and to\nbecome such a ruilroad octopus as the\nworld has never seen. To my mind It\nwould be a great mistake if at the same\ntime steps were not taken to nationalize the C. P. R. also. There is nothing\nto prevent the same action here as\nwas taken in Groat Britain, and requisitioning the road for government\nuses, at the same time guaranteeing\npayment of the current rate o\u00a3 dlvt-\ndens to all shareholders. The enormous subsidies both In cash and land\ngrants which have been made to this\nrailway at the expense of the, people\nof Canada are an irrefutable argument\nagalpst any accusation of injustice If\nsuch a course should be adopted. My\nown belief is that if this should be\ndone the people of Canada would never,\nallow tho C. P. R. to revert to any,\nsuch private ownership as at present\nexists.\nThere is practically no difference of\nopinion in the country in regard to tho\nnecessity of taking over the C. N. R.;\n\"What has become of the old cult\nfor plain living and; high thinking?\"\n\"Ought to be stronger than ever now.\nThose who.are forced to plain living\narc doing some tall thinking.\"\nSenator Chamberlain, while conducting the food control bill through;\nthe senate, listened one afternoon with\na bored look to a long and prosy opposition speech.\nAs he listened he happened.to look\nup, and in the strangers' gallery he\nsaw a deaf man take out an car-'\ntrumpet and apply It to his ear.\nSenator Chamberlain stifled a yawn,\nand, nodding towards the deaf man,\nsaid:\n\"Look at the deaf fellow up there\nthrowing away his natural advantages.\"\nPatience\u2014Peggy says she has no\nfaults,\nPatrice\u2014Well, she   has,   but   she's\nclever enough to cover them up,\n.   \"How does she manage it?\" .\n\"Wears a hoavy veil,\"\nEp&s\nrv\nI\nAADE IN CANADA\n'TOW\nPer making seas.\nFor washing Slehee,\nFer removing ordinary \u2022eetrue-\nE.W.CILLETT COMPANY LIMITED!\nWgW      \"\u00bb\u00b0HTO. OUT, MOMT^J)<|P|\nthe only question which is being debated is at to whether the stock of that\nrailway has any value nnd should be\npaid for by the government. This is\na question of valuation rather than of\npolicy, because everyone admits that\nCanada must not* confiscate private\nproperty Without compensation.\nThe opponents of railroad nationalization maintain that it is impossible\nunder public ownership to obtain any\nadequate efficiency of operation on account of the political patronage system which would be injected into it.\nScandals in regard to the government\nIntercolonial railway are usually quoted in support of this argument. It\nseems to me ah almost unbelievable\nconfessloa of weakness and partisanship on the part of parliament to admit that it-Is incapable of creating a\nrailway commission which shall operate the railway systems of the country\non a just and non-political basis, and\nI for one refuse to believe that It cannot be done. Whether this be so or\nnot, there is,\\ however, no question that\nIn time of war the needs of coordinated transportation are so great that\nmuch greater control than is being at\npresent exercised Is required for the\nwelfare of the country.      ,\nThere is also the further danger that\nthe political influence of such huge accumulations of capital as are controlled\nby the C. P, R. will be exercised for\nselfish ends to far greater damage to\nthe country than could result from the\ndangers of .political patronage under\ngovernment operation. The charges\nopenly made that tho C. P. R. is backing Sir Wilfrid Laurier because It feels\nthat any further devotion of the\nstrength and resources of the country\nto the war would result in such financial weakening of the nation as to lead\nto decreased profits for the road cannot be dismissed as merely political\nscandal. No one who has any knowledge of the baneful effect in the history of the country of railroad lobbying can fail to be awake to at least the\npossibility of such a danger.\nIn addition to the railway question; I\nbelieve that the Canadian government\nought to exercise direct control over\nthe water transportation of the Great\nLakes. The rates here have not, as I\nunderstand it, been controlled by any\nsupervision other than the operation of\nthe law of supply and demand. Last\nyear the freight rate on a bushel of\nwheat through the lakes was about 5\ncents. This year I am told it is at\npresent about two and a half cents.\nConsequently the owners of lake tonnage have at times profited enormously at the expense of the Canadian consumer and of the allied governments\nwhich have purchased Canadian grain.\nThe selling value of lake ships has\ndoubted and. tripled, and, whether or\nno undue profit's are at present being\nearned, they undoubtedly have been\nearned In the past. It seems clear that\nIn dealing with the question of Canadian transportation the government\nshould assume immediate authority\nover the system of inland waterborne\nfreight.\nBriefly, the whole trend of modern\nthought toward transportation is to\nhold that It ought not to be the subject\nof private business, but is one of the\nmost important of' public utilities.\nCertainly In time of war, when the services of these utilities become of paramount importance, nothing should be\nallowed to'stand in the way of the most\ncomplete possible control, coordination\nand direction by the government of\nevery transportation facility.\n-4-\nI'THE SOLDIER'S TOOTH BRUSH!\nDo sotdlers use their tooth brushes\nother than for legitimate tooth cleaning?\"\nThis is a question asked in a Canadian Associated cable despatch from\nLondon. The writer of the despatch\ndocs not answer the question in a\nstraightforward manner. He vaguely\nremarks: \"Seemingly some men apply the brushes to foreign purposes.\"\nThis Is distinctly aggravating, and\nsets one wondering what those \"foreign purposes\" might be.\nThe word \"foreign\" may mean anything, or it may mean simply that, our\nTommies in the trenches have acquired tho habits of the foreign land in\nwhich they are fighting.\nWhen the correspondent goes on to\nsay: \"There is a prevalence of the war\nbred ailment known as 'trench\nmouth,'\" one immediately thinks of\n\"troneh feet.\"\nArc we to infer that there Is some\nconnection between these ailmen,ts?\nCan it bo that the tooth brush has boon\nthe agency of transmission from the\none to the\u2014but, no! It cannot be!\nWho has not seen a tooth brush\u2014his\nown tooth brush\u2014used for purposes\nentirely foreign to his Intention when\nhe purchased It? What man has not\nbeheld his own kith and kin applying\nwhite polish to a pair-of canvas shocB\nwith that dental instrument? And the;\nonly explanation thought necessary:\nfor the outrage was that the \"sponge;\nwas not good,\" and It was \"clean polish,\" and would wash off\u2014and, furthermore, that one could not expect to be\ntoo particular when camping out.\nTrench life, like summer-camp or\nsummer-cottage life, Is a step back to\nnature and the barbarian. Conventional domestic habits are broken down;\nby the absence of the household facilities that foster them. The tamest man\nbecomes wild and irresponsible.\nIt was recorded of our prime minis\nter not long ago that while visiting a\nmilitary camp he actually cut and buttered his own bread! And who knows,\nif the censor had permitted the whole\ntruth to be told, who knows but that\nSir Robert so far relaxed as to flnfeh\nhis gravy with the same knife?\nThe obscurity of the trench tooth\nbrush story, may, of course, be due to j\nthe vagaries of the. censor. The Associated Press correspondent may have\nwritten In picturesque language how\nTommle,\n\"In the spoils *\nBetween the shells,\"\nput his tooth brush to most ingenious\nthough base uses. He may have used'\nIt.for painting pictures with the various shades of mud for pigments. Then,\nagain, he may have been put to the\nextremity of using the tooth bruSh for\nbis halls or his hair, or for sweeping\nthe floor of his dugout.   '\nAll of which vain imaginings are due\nto the Incomplete or censored despatch\nof the'i Associated Press.

His comments on .the Luxburg revelations are a masterpiece of unconscious Teutonic humor.\n\"More American Prying Into Official\nDocuments,\" is the title of the editorial.\nThink of it! Here's a country that\nactually insists on reading something\nnot handed to it! In other words; it\nis infringing Germany's patent. No\nwonder the editor feels ngrieved.\n\"The state department has again\npublished documents of which it obtained possession by God knows what\nunderground methods,\" he proceeds to\nspecify.\nWith what beautiful consistency this\ncomes from a country with the biggest spy system in the world and the\nmost complete official lie system!\nBut note the first intimation of a\ndoubt ns to the reality of the partnership with God the kaiser always proclaims. \"God only knows\" how the\nwicked American government got the\nnotes and he won't tell the mllitocracy.\nThere must be something wrong somewhere.\n'Such matters are, of course, not\nfor publication,\" he adds in a burst of\nconfidence.\nThey certainly are not. It is only\nwith trouble and expense that newspapers or governments get the documents relating to murder plots for\npublication.\nWhen published at all,\" this Teutonic humorist says, \"they may, easily\nhurt susceptibilities by some turn or\ntwist, like private conversations, which\nthough not ill-meant, may work like\npoison, when reported by the tattle of\nthird parties\/'\nThey certainly hurt susceptibilities.\nAlso those who arc not expecting to\nbe hurt. Witness Luxburg's dismissal\nand the little surprise bonfire of German establishments at Buenos Ayres*\n\"By some turn or twist.\" Like that,\nfor instance, Bismarck gave the report\nof the Ems interview, thus precipitating the Franco-Prussian war. The\nGermans are great on turning and\ntwisting. But no American would\nhave the art or lack the art to touch\nono letter of that statement of rare\nlucidity\u2014^\"sink wlthouj a trace.\".\nNot ill-meant;\"'of course not. The\nidea was to sink the little ships and\nmurder the little people of the little\nnation, even jovial fashion.\n\"Such a poisoning process was, of\ncourse, the object of the Washington\ngovernment.\"\n\"Again the note of moral indignation and the cry of outrage from a\npoison monopolist who believes his\nprivilege corruptly infringed.

RAMSAY   &   SON   COMPANY,\n167  PENDER  STREET  WEST,\nVANCOUVER,   B.C.\n(By Nelles U. Fallis.)\nIt is always pleasant to get hold of\ngood book, when you know or have\nover seen its author. This Is why I\nwelcomed a volume sent to mo the\nother day entitled \"How to See a Play\"\nby Prof. Burton. Just a few years\nago when I was a student at one of\nour Canadian universities, 1 had the\nprivilege of hearing Prof. Burton lecture on  the theatre  of today.\nWhen t opened the book I expected\nthat the author would try and impress\nthe theatre goer of today, with the\nnecessity of choosing his entertain-\neiit wisely, i remember that in his\nlecture one of his startling sayings\nwas this: \"Take the theatre prayerfully. Never mind what your parents\nmay say about the advisability of attending the theatre. We are, here for\nharactcr development and a little t'ui\non the side.\" This language from\nprofessor p.u,t things in a new light foH\nme, It is'hard for many people to^j\nday to gotMvovcr the old Idea which\nthey inherited from their fathers, thu.t.1\nthe mere act of entering a theatre is\ncommitting' a sin of a serious kind.\nBut as the eminent scholar stated in\nhis hook, the theatre is simply a place\nwhere people may be made to think\nand feel. A good play can show us\nthe truth about life, or present the\npoetry ot life, and so bring about the\nenlargement of human sympathies. It\ncan leave us awakened, stimulated human beings. A bad play, and by a bad\nplay I mean one that is seamy for\nscaminess' sake, can poison our minds\nand injure our souls. Wherefore we\nneed to select our plays on the ground\nof conscience, that is, to refuse to attend a performance which comes to\nus with a had reputation.\nAnd when yon come to think of it,\nthe drama, which is such a potent\nagent for educating and amusing human beings, will never be delivered\nfrom vulgarity until the people generally, and especially those who mould\npublic opinion, take their plays prayerfully\u2014Prof. Burton did not mean by\nthis striking phrase that a healthy desire for amusement should be cut out\nof our lives. Nor does he mean that\nanyone should be so namby-pamby as\nto refuse to see evil passions delineated on the stage, We are permitted to\nsee evil every day and It is by coming in contact with evil and seeing Us\nravages that our sympathies for the\ngood ought, to be developed. Many\ncontemporary plays referred to in this\nbook have unhappy endings. In some\nof them evil is even allowed to triumph.\nBut suppose evil does triumph as in\n\"The Easiest Way,\" there may be\neven In such a, sad ending to a play\nnot only a faithful presentation of Just\nthe sort of thing that Is going on\nabout us every day, but a powerful\nsermon to excite our sympathies with\nour tempted, or fallen brothors,\n\"; Tt, will, be a long time before tho\nmasses of our population are able to\nenjoy the theatre as a national institution. But much progress has been\nmade lu the last quarter century. The\nfact is now coming to be realized that\nthe drama bos a direct, and vital Influence upon the civilization of the\nEducators are assuming today\nthat the playhouse, nlotig.Wlth the\nschool, library, newspaper and church,\nls*'ohe of the flve'inlghty-soiilal sources in suggesting Ideas to a nation and\ncreating ideals. In order that this\nmighty social force may be shaped to\nright ends and uses, it should gradually become an enterprise conducted by\nthe people and la the interests of the\npeople, born of their life.and cherished  by their love.\nThis can never happen, of course,\nuntil the theatre trust and the control\nof the business by those whose only\nideal is the mighty dollar are done\naway with; until we have a people's\nprice for a people's entertainment, instead of a price prohibitive to four-\nfifths of the people. Is not this fact\nan explanation for the enormous\ngrowth of the moving picture typo of\namusement; I think, though, that the\nmoving picture, much ns it has injured\nthe old line theati'3, will never supersede it.\none the greatest mistakes the\nchurch ever made was in allowing the\ndrama to pass from uuder Is Jurisdiction. Perhaps tins had to come in\nthe course of evolution, but I cannot\nhelp but wish that the church, and by\nthis 1 mean the Christian men and women in every community, were able\nto use this great educating force today, l am glad that Prof. Burton has\ngiven a history of the rise und growth\nof the English drama, in order to Impress his readers with the fact thai\nthe theatre ought to be devoted to the\ngreatest good of the greatest number,\nbecause it was originally designed for\nthat purpose.\nIf wo begin to look for the origin of\nthe ISngllsh drama, we must not seek\nto trace it back to the pluys of Greece\nami Rome. It Is a home-grown product and it arose in the bosom of the\nchurch, at file time of the Norman\nconquest. It began In the .pious at\ntempts of the clergy to Interest the\npeople In tho stories of the Bible, especially those connected with Master\nand Christmas. None of the peasants\ncould read; none could understand the\nLatin litany, but all could follow a\ntableau representing I lie Shepherds\nvisiting I lie manger on Christmas\nmorning. All could follow the story\nand appreciate the dramatic spectacle\ngiven in the church on Easter morning, when the women inarched up the\nnuiin aisle, halted before the representation of an empty tomb, and held\nconverse with the nngol of the sepulchre, in this simple way, then, our\nEnglish drama had its origin, as an\neducational extra grafted to the liturgy of the church.\nIn the process of limb It was amplified and grow more ami mure hi favor\nwith the people. But owing to the\nbig crowds that thronged the cathedrals on these special days, owing to\npocket picking and violence\u2014for there\nis always a disreputable element in\nevery crowd, even u church-going one\n\u2014the clergy found it necessary to isolate tho plays from the regular service of the mass. The players gave\nthe simple performance In the churchyard, but here UlBO the multitude;\ntrampled the .muss and did other violence; so in the thirteenth century\nthe rude, early English drama wasi\nremoved from the precincts of tin1\nchurch altogether, was divorced from\nthe church, carried to the tq'wn square\nand enme Into tiie hands of the town\nguild. '*\nHut from.1300 jtt teou the'druma of\nEJngland was essentially religious. All\nthe plays were reproductions from Bi-!\nble stories. Flays relating to Adam\nand Eve, to Noah and his wife were\nvery popular. On Corpus Christ! day\n30 or 40 plays were presented in which\nthe whole history of the Bible was reviewed, from the fall of Lucifer to the\nresurrection of Christ.\nMany of these plays were filled with\ncomic touches, they took tremendous\nliberties with the Bible characters,\nyet they were of real religious value.\nIn many of them the simplicity and\nsincerity were perfect. In the play\nAbraham and Isaac, there Is a wonderfully vivid scene descriptive of the\njourney of the aged patriarch and his\nlittle son to the place of sacrifice, the\nboy asks the most pathetic questions\nand continually says, \"I would God my\nmother were here on this hill.\" No\nplay that I have ever read is more\npiercing in its simple pathos or more\nbeautiful in its Interpretation of the\nlove of parents and children. We can\neasily imagine how the beasants were\nImpressed by that play-sermon in the\nmiddle ages.\nAnd if the modem church could present powerful sermons in dramatic\nform today in its own chain of theatres it would increase its Influence n\nhundred-fold and heat the devil at\nwhat bet has long led some high-\nminded people to consider his own peculiar game, play-acting.\nFOREIGNERS TO BE\nREMOVED FROM GERMANY\n(By Daily News Leased Wire.)\nAMSTERDAM, Oct. 1.\u2014The Tele-\ngraaf says a bill is being prepared ia\nBerlin authorizing the German government, in view of the scarcity of foodstuffs, to remove from the country all\nforeigners not employed in war industries.

It was\nnot, however, the women that had\nchanged, but men's conception of,\nthem. The uld idea ha dboen that\nwoman's place was the home, but those\nwho said this usually meant that woman's place was the kitchen. Now\nthey said that her place was the workshop. It was no. lunger the hand that\nocked the cradle that ruled the world,\nbut the hand that drilled the shell. The\nnumber of women engaged in industrial occupations had increased by 30\nper cent since the war. A million women were now doing the work formerly done by men. This influx had not\nbjien an unmixed blessing, ..It was\ntrue that the output had been satisfactory, the status of. women, had improved and also the stjuujai'd of remuneration, but at the '.same lime\nmuch of the work was unsuitable for\nwomen and was performed under unsatisfactory conditions, in spite uf all\nthe apparent enthusiasm for welfare,\nfactory legislation had been scrapped,\nfor a time night.work had been universal, work had been carried on for\nseven days a .week with one Sunday\noff in a month. In one factory as\nmuch as 30 consecutive hours had been\nworked, and instead of the eight-hour\nday they had the..eight-hour break.\nIn the reconstruction of Industry\nthey should  aim  at securing as wide\nfield as possible consistent with the\nmaintenance of the welfare of the\nworkers. Women must be employed\nat wages that would ensure decent\nlivelihood, at uijuul wages for equal\nwork, under conditions that would\npromote and nut retard their full development. This could be brought\nabout lu twp ways, either by trade union organization, or by state action,\nami'state action would U> the better..\nTrade unionism fur vcmen-had made\ngreat progress during the war. It was\na good thing that women should belong to the same trade unions as men,\nwhere possible, but i must not be a\npaper membership. They must be encouraged to take an active part in\ntheir union, or they would lose the\nbenefit uf its educational influence.\nTrade unions would play a most important part in reconstruction, and\nstate action would be supplementary.\nThey needed a new consolidating factory act which would secure a 48-\nhours week; no fines and deductions;\nno truck; improved sanitary standards and more women factory inspectors instead of welfare workers. Educational reforms must be made, including the raising of the school age\nto Ifi. The nation had everything to\ngain and nothing to lose by giving women their fair rlinre lu imperial poll-\ntics.\n]     EDUCATION OF GERMANY.\nEvery policy of the German government for more than three years has\nbeen based upon the belief that might\nalone could prevail. The atrocities\ncommitted In Belgium and France, the\ntypnton destruction of cities, the Lusi-\ntania massacre, the\" air raids on unfortified cities, ..the murder of noncomuat-\nqnts, the.attacks on hospitals and hospital ships, ruthless submarine warfare, the driving of French and Belgian\ncivilians into exile, the conspiracies\nagainst the peace and safety of neutrals\u2014every act of the German government fias'neen a deification of the\ndoctrine of might.\nIt Is only' because might has failed\nthat the imperial foreign secretary\nbegins to realize that it was doomed to\nfail from the start and that right also\nmust be 'considered in shaping the.\npolicies of government.\nThe education of Germany is a painful and costly process, but now that\n.lunkertum Is beginning to learn, there\nIs all the more reason why tho instruction should lie thorough. When Ger-a\nmany has been-compelled by crushing\ndefeat to understand that it is right\nthat makes might atid not might that\nmakes right, there will be security in\nthe world for honest people.\u2014New\nTdrk  World.\n\u25a0$._\n-^>\n| .LABOR AND THE ACT \u00bb\n& L__^ L 1 ,$>\n.'The decision^ of the Trades and\nLabor Congress not to do anything to\nprevent,the attainment of the object\nsought under the Military Service Act,\nindicates that the majority of the delegates and the executive council realised the gravity of the issue the congress had to decide. Faced with the\nresponsibility of aligning Canadian\nlabor aitainst the democratic cause and\nof opposing the enforcement of an act\npassed under a constitution based on\nthe principle of popular self-government, the congress did not allow Itself\ntp.be^drawit Into inconsistency.\nCanadian trade unionists, in common with those of Britain and the\nUnited Slates, haVe appreciated the\nsignificance of the struggle proceeding in Europe. They have refused\nto follow the extremists who gave\nvent to the foolish doctrines that\nwould identify the citizen armies ol\"\nHiitain and tiie Dominions with the\nlustruments of Prussian militarism;\nand that would reduce constitutional'\ngovernment to anarchy, in the midst\nof a war for democracy, by placing\nsectional and minority opinions in a\nposition lu defy the will of the majority. The interests and existence\nof labor are bound up in tbe interests and existence of tbe nation, as\nthe greater contains the less. The\nnational existence at this crucial-\ntime\u2014or all that makes it worth\nwhile\u2014Is involved in the success of\nthe Allied cause on the battlefields\nof Europe.\nThat the congress should have\nsignified its opposition to conscription is better developed In the Gcr-\nniiin  empire than anywhere .else.    It'\nDODDS\n%. PILLS\nRUNS GAUNTLET OF\nFORTS ON SCHELDT\nAMSTERDAM. Oct. 1\u2014 The Tele-,\ngtiiuf gives particulars of the adventure of the Belgian motor boat Scul-\n.dlsh, which left Antwerp on Sunday\nand arrived in Walvoorden, Fast Zee-\nland, in Flanders, by way of Holland,\nwith Belgians for the Belgian army.\nThe Scaldbih belongs to the Belgian\ngovernment, but was confiscated by\nthe Germans, who rephrjstenod her the\nSehokio and fitted her luxuriously for\n.the use of the highest officers. Tho\nBelgian pilot, vnn Dingen, always\nknown us \u201e\".lof,\" was appointed cap-\nlain because he knew the river intimately. He frequently had the gover-\nnor-general aboard, and generally\nfloated tiie admiral's flag, for which\nevery guard un the Schedlt and the\nWillebrouk eanal showed respect. He\ndetermined on a serious nttempt to\nconvey Belgian civilians to Holland,\nthese men being so weary of German\ntyranny that they were willing to risk\ntheir lives to escape. \"Jof\" had orders\nto take Governor-General Falkcnhaus\nfrom Antwerp to Brussels last Mon-\n'day. He reckoned if he cruised northward on Sunday the guards on the\nScheldt would think the governor-\ngeneral was taking the trip to tho\nfrontier along the forts. He started on\nSunday at midday, hoisting\" the admiral's flag. The Belgian i-f Mans\nwere hidden below the deck and the\ncaptain and two assistants alone remained on deck. They passed the\nforts or South Maria and Phillip do\nT'addro by l.lefkensock and Duel, tbe\nGerman flag being saluted everywhere\nand the soldiers presenting arms. At\nDuel tbe whole guard turned out.\nClose lo the frontier the motor stopped,\nthe petrol being almost exhausted, A.\nGerman patrol boat approached, but\nno assistance being asked, apparently\ndid not dare to come alongside a boat\nflying the admiral's flag. A friendly\nsalute by \".lot\" indicated that he did\nnot require assistance. His salute was\nrelumed. By good luck the motors\nwere made to work n little longer and\nthe tld\/ also helped the vessel ultimately lo reach Holland, where after\na visit <d' exnminntioa by the Dutch\nnaval authorities enough petrol was\nobtained to enable the boat to reach\nValvoorden, where the captain and\n.jMiHHpugerw .were \u25a0..heartily welcomed\nand. ,c<uiH;rai plated, on the success of\nill\" 'daring' and dangerous adventure.-\nThe incident printed muoli iimuswHonl\nWATER NOTICE.\nDiversion  qnd  Use.\nTake notice that the Island Mill\nLumber Co., of Alpena, Michigan,.\nU.S.A., through their agent, Geo.

The housewife who sets a too\nskimpy table runs the risk of impairing the health of her family and\nretarding the growth of her children. This means doctors' bills and an\nunderdeveloped citizenry, which is in itself this worst kind of waste. If the\nfamily attempts to cut down on shoes and clothing below their legitimate\nneeds the result ts loss of self-esteem and often results in sickness. This\nmeans loss of time, doctors' bills again, and lowered efficiency. Just now\nthe world demands that every one shall produco something and produce\nthe maximum of whatever useful thing they are doing. The husband or\nprovider who thinks it wise to ask his family to live in poor quarters,\nwithout modern comforts and conveniences; who refuses to buy a piano\nfor his daughter's musical instruction and entertainment; who denies his\nson the opportunity to go to high school or college and who attempts to\nput the entire family on what he terms a \"war time basis\" is making the\nmost serious ,mistake possible. He is actually guilty of what might be\ntermed a moral crime, because he is driving the young folks away from\nhome for entertainment and lowering the living standards of his family.\nHe thereby helps to lower the living standards of the entire country, and\nyou cannot lower a country's living standards without giving that country\na serious setback and placing it under a great handicap in the world\nstruggle.

In certain cases It\n\u25a0was stated tho feed was refused by all\nclasses of stock and only eaten with\nrepugnance after being mixed with\nbran or middlings. In any other cases,\npersistency in feeding the material resulted in the death of swine, calves\nand poultry, apparently partly from\nstarvation and partly from digestive\ndisorders brought on by the low nutritive value of the feed and its coarse,\nfibrous nature.\nAll Samples Below Standard.\nA few samples of these feeds respecting which complaints had been\nmade, were collected in Ontario, Quebec and British Columbia, and submitted to analysis in the experimental\nfarm laboratory.\nWhile it is not claimed that these\nanalyses were typical of chop feeds as\nsold generally throughout the Dominion, it is highly significant that not\none of the seven samples examined\ncontained the minimum percentage of\nprotein required by the standard, that\nthey were all exceedingly low in fat,\nand that they with one exception contained an excess of ribre, three of them\nover 20 per cent. Taken as a series\nthey were of extremely low feeding\nvalue and several of them were practically worthless.\nThese feeds ranged in price from\n$20 to $35 per ton. In a few of them\nthere was a sprinkling of corn, but in\nthe majority of them the proportion\nof meal was very small; they were all\ndoarse ami, fibrous, 'ind'icatiing that\nthey had been largely made from light\noats or contained a heavy admixture\nof oat hulls, mill waste and other\nworthless offal. Some of them contained a number of weed seeds, fragments of straw, etc. There is no won\nder that sloe]; refused them. Indeed,\nit is well nigh impossible to Imagine\nhow they could he used profitably if\npurchased at any price.\nGround or crushed oats from good\nquality grain make a nutritious feed\u2014\nthough tor young pigs and calves the\nhulls should be sifted out. While not\na high protein cencentrate, it possesses\nmany excellent qualities as a basis of\ntho meal portion of the ration. Of all\nthe cereals, oats are the most readily\nand successfully grown throughout\nCanada, and there is no reason why\nthe progressive farmer with foresight\nshould not be independent, of these\npurchased chop feeds. With a grain\ngrinding mill on the farm there should\nhe little necessity to buy chop.\nThere are many excellent feeds on\nthe market, the price of which Is more\nor less in accord with their nutritive\nvalue. These should he\/bought, rather\nthan chop feeds, to supplement the\nhome grown feeds and fodders. At the\nbest, chop is but a low grade feed. If\nnecessit y occasions the purchase of\nchop, careful examination of the proffered feed is important; unless finely\nground those containing an excess of\nhull can he readily distinguished by\nthe experienced farmer.\nDAWSON   HOTELKEEPER\nDIES  IN  WINNIPEG  HOTEL\n(By Daily News Leased Wire.)\nWINNIPEG,   Oct.   1.\u2014John  Keys,  a.\nhotelkeeper   of   Dawson,   Y.

When it is remembered that\nnearly 500,000 of these refugees have\npassed through Switzerland, since\nOctober, 1016', one can form some idea\nof the magnitude of the task of caring\nfor them. * On their arrival the refugees are divided Into two parties, one\nof which is received nt Schaffhausen\nand the other at Zurich; and about a\nthousand arrive at these two places\nevery day.\nSwitzerland has displayed a magnificent generosity in  welcoming  these\nhomeless,   penniless   strangers.     Several    towns,    notably    Schaffhausen,\nZurich,   St.   Gall   and   Geneva,   are\nspecial  centres  for  this  relief  work.\nAt   Zurich   a   committee   has   been\nformed   consisting  of   the   Rev.   William  Cuendet,   pastor  of  the   French\nChurch,   chairman;   Messrs.   A,   Stoll,\nS. Wixler and F. Knochel, and Mes-\ndames    Echwyzer-Ellsworth,    Ceresol\nand Knuchel.   They are assisted by a\ndevoted band of some 200 voluntary ]\nworkers, men and women, who meet ,\nthe trains on their arrival and look I\nafter the refugees until they leave for i\nGeneva.   Every train is in the special '\ncharge of a Swiss officer and a small !\ndetachment  of  soldiers,  who  receive :\nthe fugitives on the German frontier, j\nand   escort   the   train    right    across\nSwitzerland to the French frontier.   A '\u25a0\nsmall group of nurses also accompa- I\nnles the party.   The trains arrive at !\nZurich a little after 7 each morning,\nwith from 400 to COO people, and remain until 10:30 In the station.   During this time the occupants are fed\nnnd   the   most   necessitous.   receive\nfresh clothing,   for none  of  the  old\nmen, women and children,  and  very\noften little babies, have a change of\nclothing, and of course, not a penny.\nThe Germans see that they bring no\nvaluables out with  them.    Formerly,\ntho people were allowed to keep their\nwatches but now even those are taken\naway.    Their ear-rings,  too,  the one\nprecious    possession    of    the    French\npeasant   woman,    are    taken    when\nfound.  Some of the women told how\nthey   hid   these   trinkets    by    putting\nthem in glass bottles and buying them\nIn their own gardens.\nTiie little badies are washed and\ncared for in a railway carriage specially equipped for the purpose. They\nare given hot milk and all their clothing is changed for new and fresh\nthings, old clothes, being given back\nto the mother In a bag to be washed.\nThe older children, and men and\nwomen, wash on the platform, plenty\nof water, soap and towels being provided for that purpose.\nA nurse and an orderly are assigned to each carriage. The people\nare taken in groups of fifty to the\nstation restaurant and given breakfast. This meal and the sympathetic surroundings soon loosen their\ntongues and they begin to relate their\nexperiences. At the beginning of the\nflight of the refugees these stories\nwere dreadful, even now they are bad\nenough. The earlier ones came\nthrough literally paralyzed with terror, incapable of thought or action,\nand absolutely In tatters. Some had\nhidden in caves and expected to he\nkilled at any moment. Their recollections weru not always very clear,\nbut this was quite comprehensible\nwhen one thinks what they had gone\nthrough.\nA French ecclesiastic, who came\nfrom a small town near Arras, said\nthat of the 1800 Inhabitants there 30\nonly were left. Most of the evacues\nbelong to the peasant class. One\npoor man brought his shovel with\nhim; he said that the Germans had\ntaken his little bit of land from him,\nbut he could not part with his shovel.\nAn old woman told how they had\ntaken her cow, which knew her voice\nand would follow her around. She was\nunder the impression that it had been\nbought, as she showed a piece of paper\nthe Germans had given her in exchange. On examination, it proved to\nbe simply a line from the commandant that they had requisitioned \"the\ncow.\nThe three hours of rest, cleanliness\nand good foot! suffice lo make a great\nchange in tho appearance of the refugees and all look rested and encour-\nago\"d. Just before the train leaves, a\nparty of Swiss soldiers assemble on\ntho platform and sing patriotic songs.\nit is evening when the train arrives at\nGeneva, where great crowds are waiting eager to welcome tie travelers.\nThere they were taken to a temperance hotel for dinner; the tables are\ndecorated with fresh flowers and a\n\u2022good substantial meal is sorved. The\nnight is spent in various schoolhouses\nset apart for that purpose.\nThe next morning they leave by\ntramway, again with military escort,\nfor Annamasse. The moment when\nthe refugees find themselves again on\nFrench soil, is an affecting one.\n\"Ladles and gentlemen, we are in\nFrance,\" the conductor remarks\nquietly. Some weep, others sing the\n\"Marseillaise,\" whilo a few of the\nmore vigorous give vent to their feelings by shouting \"Down with tho\nBoche!\" At Annamasse, they leave\nthe train and are taken to the city\nhall, where preparations have been\nmade for transporting them to various\nparts of France.\nMost of the refugees come from the\noccupied and devastated districts of\nnorthern France and Belgium. A few\ncome from concentration camps.\nNumbers ulso of totally disabled tjpl-\ndiers come through from time to time.\nGnu of ihe chief alms of these people\n<$IEAi\nWhere Everybody Goea.\"^|\nTONIGHT-7 to 11  p.\nEntire New Performance by\nThe Native Hawaiian\nAll the latest Hawaiian hits. \u2014\nbig novelty.
