Referendum on Prohibition
According to latest reports from
Toronto- it is almost a certainty
that Premier Hearst and his col-
leagues have decided to give the
people of Ontaiio the privilege to
say whether or'not Ontario will go
dry in 1916. The Government
_Jasbeen working on some scheme
of prohibition for some time and
have finally succeeded in getting
this important question out: of
politics. It -is unofficially an-
nounced that a straight vote on
total prohibition , will ,be taken
early in July. Since ;Premier
Hearst and his patty have been
men enough to take this titep
against strong opposition, let every
one, grit and tory, who favors
prohibition Goin hands and fight to
have the demon driven out of On-
tario. This does not only mean to
close the bar, but the club, the
shop and the brewery.

at Nankin, China, to Dr. James But -

The days pass along as if never to end.
But the evenings are filled with de-
light,
For a smile on the lips of the gal-
dancing girl
Brings a Jo 'mid the dazzle of night
So we drift and forget all the science
we know,
And the things that we ougat tc
have done,
Till the charms for the fireside and
love for the home
Are all killed by the frivolous fun,
Thus we drift to the East and we drift
to the West i
With our rudder and centreboard
• gone,
For our ideals of all that mean Iove
and success
Are unknowingly trampled upon.
Yes it's easy to drift with the flow of
k the tide
And the will of the winds in their
play,
But it's hard to admit at the end of
the night
That we've nothing to show for the
day.
So at last we arose from the stupor of
Wine,
From the sin and the waste of it all,
And we fight to get back on the
straight narrow path
And some do, but the most of us
fail,
Then We hard to admit that. We've lost
In the game,
So we bluff it the best that we can,
Till the devil who waits with a aarcas.

Australian Market for Canadian l+isit
In addition to the great market for
Canadian fish which is now being
opened up in Great Britain owing to
the scarcity of supplies there through
war conditions, a valuable export
market is now being developed in
Australia. A report to the Depart-
ment of Trade and Commerce from
Canadian Trade Commissioner Ross
of Melbourne draws attention to' the
fact that Australia also faces a fish
shortage, and that there is a record
demaafd for Canadian fish there.
New Brunswick packers have aI-
ready taken advantage of the opening
and are shipping large quantities of
canned sardines and herrings. Pre-
served fish in tins are reported to be
in great demand, with high prices
ruling. During the past twelve
months Canada has sent more than 1
hall a million dollars' worth of fish
to Australia.
In Great Britain fish prices have
gone up more than 100 per cent„ and
recent shipments of Canadian fish to
the motherland have demonstrated I
the immense value of the market 1
opened up by the war to Canadian
fishermen. Canada possesses the
most extensive fisheries in the world,
with a catch last year valued at more
than $33,000,000 and more than
100,000 men ezuployed in the Indus-
try. The 111 Wind of the war is blow-
ing good to the fishermen of Canada.
Who are getting ready markets and
higher prices.
Outlawry.-
Outlawry existed in pkigland and
Scotland from 'very early days. Bart
Godwin and. Ileroward tho Wako were
fatuous political outlaws. IS.t one time
the sentence was used to punish any
ono who would not I)ay the "were," or
blood looney, to the relatives of a man
he had killed, In civil proceedings it
was abolished in 18'tO. In the old days
atx outlaw sonic( be killed whenever
or whorovor he was encountered, but
fWe part of the penalty was ui»ilabed.

HAS A BIG JOB. (XXXXXXXXXX E XX,VX, :MXXXXXX?Y4
Cltairntan of Quebec Board to Care
for Soldiers is a Busy Man.
The appointment of the Hon. G. A.
Simard as chairman of the Quebec
Province Commission in charge of
making arrangements for finding em-
ployment for returned soldiers, might
be called an appreciation of services
rendered both to the Government and
the people of Quebec.
Mr. Simard was one of the first to
recognize the value of good roads,
and through his early efforts he gath-
ered around him a body of public
opinion that soon made itself felt.
He is a Large property holder on the
south side of the river across froni
Montreal in the vicinity of Laprairie,
and in 1013 was appointed a member
of the Legislative Council of Quebec.
}Ie organized the Franco -American
Chemical Company, and is general
manager of the St. Lawrence Drug
Co. The former company is a world-
wide concern with branches in Eu-
rope and the United States.
Mr. Simard is said to have a gen-
ius for organization, and he will have
ample scope for his powers, for the
task of securing employment for re-
turned soldiers is no easy one. Al-
ready Montreal has 200 men invalid-
ed home seeking. employment, and
the list will be added to by half that
number within a week.
Little aid is expected from the eity
of Montreal, so It will be the task of
Mr. Simard and his associates to mo-
bilize the manufacturers throughout
the Province. Mr. Simard has great
faith in the possibilities of technical
education, and hopes by that Means
to help soldiers who otherwise might
have to spend their clays as mere
laborers,ianitors, or the like.
Mr, Simard Is but 45 years old
