EDITORIAL NOTES. s Stratford is to erect a 125.000 monu- ment as a war memorial. Goderich now has her summer clothes on and is prepared to receive visitors, A seat in the Square on,a lovely lung day is another luxury Sir Henry Drayton didn't tax. Put it in your hat that Dominion Day is to be celebrated as per usual in this loyal town of Goderich, and get ready to do your part to make it one grand, glori- ous day. In order to avoid international compli- cations. The Signal will not express any preference for the Presidential nomina- tion. We don't care who it is, so long as _-.It isn't that fire-eating, taittwistitrg. know-nothing Hiram Johnson. The revelations that are being made in the Crown timber investigation make It clear that the Province hal not been get• ting full value for its timber resouilits. With expenditures running away ahead. and a big leak in the revenues, 11 is no wonder the Provincial Treasurer could not make ends meet. This is the week of the Republican convention at Chicago. and we are pre- pared to hear of cheers lasting 'steen hours in acclaim of some favorite son or -sons. Did you ever notice that this big --Cheering is always done for a fellow before -Ape is elected—never afterwards. Who is Cheering for Wilson just now, for in- mtance ? ewe When Senator Lodge talks about "Mr. Wilson's League and Its sacrifice of America" he is talking nonsense. The League gives the United States an opportunity, in conjunction with the other nations, of ensuring the peace of the world. This may be a respon- sibility the Uulted Stater does not wish to share. but to speak of the proposal as a "'seethe, of America" is mere political claptrap. It is a pity that a subject of such vast importance to the United States and to the world cannot be discussed In a statesmanlike manner. If public library boards in Ontario have been empowered to levy at will upon the municipalities to the extent of Illy cents per head of papu'ation,'the L'gislature has Bane entirely too far. In some way or other the passing of such an A:t has escaped general notice. Public librariep are entitled to public support. but th2 municipalities should not without their consent be saddle 1 with w large an oblig- ation. PA considerable proportion of Public library patrons confine their use of the t library to fiction, and the town might as well be asked to subsiiixe the moving picture theatre as to be kvied upon for reading matter of this type. This town of Goderich would object strenuously to handing over 12.300 an. nually to the puhli: library board ; but it- is hardly likely that the board, even if it is empowered to demand such a sum, would exadse iN wthpnty to this extent.. The Golden Rule—"whatsoever ye wou;d that men should do to you, do ye even so to them"—is a rule for all life, not one to be applied in this case and rejected in that. In their dealings with the question of immigration Canadians must try to see things from the standpoint of the immigrant or the would be immigrant before deciding offhand on. only 'wholesale policy of exclusion. The ,Lord of all the earth did not give Canada to any particular set of people with the right of keeping out others who should wish to make their homes within its broad limits. The resolution recently adopted by the Methodist distract meeting perhaps is not to be rigidly interpreted ; but we do not like the proposal of a ban against immigrants who speak other than the English language. To some of the Con• tinental peoples Canada is the land of opportunity, and who would deny a fellowman. no matter what his native tongue, a chance to get away from the deadening surroundings of some Old World country to make a life worth while in this new and more favored land ? When he reaches Canadian soil he should be surrounded with influences that would teed to make of him a good Canadian citizen.

Canon William Craig last I etwmlrer. Mr. Clarke is a graduate of Huron College, and since his ordination has performed Ifs clerical duties In the Diocese of Huron. His arse office was that of rector of the ('human of the Holy Savior at Waterloo. from wbleh place he was transferred to Goderbeh.

"Let its heves. resolution to the cffeet- that our work will be constructive, co- operative and ('hrtstltke." said Mr. Clarke, in his first warner preacher to the congregation of the local church on Sunday morning. "There ought to be before nes a new shay. However capable the past clergy -tam been; owing to the fast of the change comes an opportnnity for a fresh start In all departments of the ,-hunch.
