A DAY IN THE CITY
(Continued' from page 1)
The game is at *resent enjoying im•
menee
popularity and all th0 courses
we were er wded with• players
and -others waiting their .turn, Mann
new courses are being prepared, and
it looks as though, before long, every
suitable vacant lot will be converted
into a golf course.' These arepre-
pared as Business ventures, players
paying 25c per game' or round. They,
are great money-makers ,at present
but thele,: is danger of the business
being overdone= and in any event the
cold • .weatherwill close .them. < The
game is adversely affecting • the
movie shows and lawn, bowling. It no
doubt, is good rec%feation for•the office
man .or woman. Many ofthese Can-
not afford to play ,regular golf or
tenriisa• •
It is interesting 'to .drive . 'with •a
confident an4 skilled driver, 'through
thick traffic. It's no.job for'a dullard,
for its all a matter of split seconds
and• split inches. The chef, who, drove
us about had had his wits sharpened
in playing hockey and 'lacrosse and
it was, astonishing whatheecould do
and would do. But its a "pace that
kills," and physicians .likely., are, right
in saying that '+'the• ever- rlereasing
number • of deathsfrom heart failure
is due to the strenuous , and ever
watchful lives many are living.
We visited the Exhibition, but not
for, long. The electrical engineering
exhibit'" always has something. , new
and . interesting, and theTautomobiles
on showwere worth seeing. They
sure are a thing of beauty; and the
driving ineehanism• is always under-
going improvement. As, for much else
of the great Ex. it was as it has been
for years. But it is worth seeing once
in a while -
Almost every villager returning
from a, city has+ something to say
about the vacant lots filled with
-used cars•-(ifathatsilsnot- a=contradie-•-
tion).: The USW ears offered 'in this
way are of much ;better quality -than;
in ..former yearseLmany' of them no
doubt representing a failure on 'the'
part ofthe original purchaser to
make good; and no doubt many of
the unemployed have had to sell their
cars for . whatever they would bring.
The prices marked on these cars
seemed to us quite high enough, as
buying any used- car is more or less
a gamble,. They likely will be much
lower by the time cold weather will
force them under cover and redace'
the number of pikospectiee. buyers.
We left the city convinced again.
that we wouldn't care to live there,.
among the noise of clanging street
ears, and the ever-present odor of
gas -engine • exhaust, and the .:wooden
men and women one meets I every-
where. The contrast is mighty be-
tween meeting a man in the city and
in the free wide spaces of, the North
or West. In the city the stranger you
meet is a thing; in the wilderness
he is a brother glad to meet you.
He 'will tell yoµ alt he knows and
share his last ,biscuit with you.

NEW GOVERNMENT
- GOES TO WORK
The Canadian House of Commons
elected on July ' 28th met in special
session •'on Monday. of • this. week:
Special. sessions of I parliament in
Canada, have been rare, and the •pro-
ceed:ng of this one, we may be sure
•will be closely watched and studied.
Tkie meeting: of ; Parliainent has
been called to deal :,with theunem-
ployMent situation which' is less a
problem in Canada than -in any other
country in the world but . ,France,
where, it: is, said• there is, . nouneni-
ploym$ t.
In undertaking to ren$iSdy unem-
ployment, the government has. a . dif-
ficult task—we do not hesitate to say
an :impossible task, if it proposes to
stimulate business•. that al1' who want
jobs can have them..
The business depression and the• re
suiting unemloyment . is. not due `to'
any, government action, and it cannot'
be reniedied, • but in a small degree' by
government action.
But t:Von though he may, not know
What to;do,. Premier_ _ .Bennetts. , wet_'
bound to call this special ;session and
do . something:' In the election cam-.
paign the King Government Wes
!;lamed for the existence of unem-
ployment, and Mr. Benett said that,
wasif his party 'restored to power
he would call a special , session o€
parlament and remedy conditions. He
may not then have, expected to have
the opportunity.
However,' he may do something to
preventconditions from% getting worse
of whiehthere is serious possib-
ility due to the action of the King
Government — an action which the
Bennett Government. can undo at this
specialsession.
Bemuse the famous Dunning Bud-
get proposed to increase the import
duty on New Zealand butter, the New
Zealand. parliamentincreased the
duty on Canadian -made ' automobiles
going into New Zealand. Evidently
the move was no expected. It ,is
quite a serious matter, as it would
cut off about five -and -a -half million
dollars of export business, and as
this business could not 'go elsewhere,
it would mean the cutting down of
operations with new and big additions
to the unemployed army. •
A difficulty ,for the government
in deealling with this matter: is that
Mr. Bennett ,and his supporters .de-
clared that they would help the farm-
ers and dairymen as well as the
manufacturers by shutting out com-
petition, and the • King Government'
was severly critisized for 'allowing
,New Zeland butter into the country.
The: a is no choice, however. If New
Zeland• butter is shut out of Canada,
Canadian • automobiles will be shut
opt of New ZePand. Our guess is that
the way will be . kept open for the
automibile manufacturers, even if
Premier Bennett will -hane to fall•
tack on the argument of the Farm-
er's - Sun, that the prohibitive tariff
on butter wouldn't benefit the f,ariners
much anyhow and that its better to
hold that export business. •

it is unfair to expect very much • in

should strive to help a hen pass thru

Justbecause a henceases laying

also usually a late molter so that she
needs an abundance of'hrat produc-
ing feeds in order to keep her com

If there is ever a time when a hen
