Good FEEDS make GOOD birds lay BETTER Bring your poultry problems to us. Our five years of exper­ ience with Poultry in large numbers have brought qs through many trials and experiences and we are always glad to give advice The best medium that Canada can use through which to contribute to­ wards world peace is her schools. In the .past our children have been taught to revel in the glories of war. We must establish amongst our yo>uth the same spirit towards peace in the future. This .can best be done by. using as examples the experiences of past wars, which have been mere delusions. Where in the past, we thought we gained, we have lost. In the World War we sent our youth to fight that war, believing it to be a^ ‘War bo end Wars.” It was im­ possible to shirk that duty then, be­ cause it seemed the proper and only honourable thing to do in accord­ ance with our education. Thus we were labouring under a delusion, be­ cause at the present time, the world is threatened with another war. All about us may be seen living mem­ entos of the sufferings of the Great War. Our hospitals are still full of physical and mental wrecks, be­ sides those whose lives can never be the same because their hearts were broken by the loss of loved ones. Thus we see we must embark on an- e ther line of education, directly in­ structive towards Peace. Let the horrors of war be stressed in the tuture rather than its glories. We see futher, the need of this in the apparent inability of the League of Nations to cope with the Italo- Ethiopian crisis. Its highest aim is that international disputes might be settled through the medium -of arbi­ tration, instead of conflict. .Since the two countries in ques­ tion are meimfoers -of the League we see the fruitlessness of trying to es­ tablish something contradictory to the education of our peoples. Each country must acknowledge the right of others to live. Small countries, finding it necessary to expand or starve, must be granted ready access to necessary raw ma­ terial. Canada can play a .big .part in helping to supply these especially to the more thickly populated areas of Europe in which it seems, the war-bug has its-'gen esis. Careful international agreements could, permit certain countries to- produce,—-others to manufacture. For example, England cannot grow 1 all the wheat she needs, but she could manufacture the flour she re­ quires. The same is applicable to other countries. These problems require careful study. We have Military Schools—why not Schools of Economics, to enable the coming generation to become efficient in these matters? Let us concentrate on -our Immi­ gration Laws permitting as many as possible to enter our vast country. This w.ould simplify many immed­ iate problems ^f thickly-populated countries. Canada must be loyal to the League of Nations and its work, remember­ ing here that Honour. Courage and Chivalry play an even greater part in Peace than in war. The Golden- Rule must be applied between nations as well as individ­ uals. True greatness comes -only through our ability to serve. Let us be truly loyal to God, King and Country.
