When they. realize that millions of people in Europe are on the verge of starvation Canadian farmers surely sill not slacken in their efforts to produce large crops of foodstuffs. What is to be done with the Kaiser? is one of the most persisterit questions of the day. There is a great variety of answers to the question, and if the ex - Emperor could hear some of them his hair would stand on end. It seems rather strange that the reve- lations as to the ex -Kaiser's property holdings in British Columbia should come about through the activities of a United States Government department. What has the Ottawa Gov:rnment been doing all this time' It is proposed that November 11 he adopted as the date of Canada's annual Thanksgiving Day.
