ently to a friend seys: "I am still
&inking the King's health in water; 1
still maintain my right of never drink-
ing any wine or spirits, and 1 shall
3maintain it to the end."
Secretary Bryan in his latest letter
sabout prohibition said: "Those who
•represent the liquor interests are con-
iscienceless in their methods: they de-
bauch the individtuais through .whom
they act and any party to whom they
dictate."

Western University
Progressing
Anot her great stride will be taken by
the Western University of London
next year, as a result of further as-
sured increase in its income. The Lon-
don City Council has voted a grant of
$15,000 which will assure the Western
a revenue of no less than $30,000 for
the Arts Department as compared
with $19,000 for the year just closing
rind 8,800 the previous year. the total
revenue available for all departments
will be $75,000, which means a doub-
ling of the income in the course of two
years.
Five new professors will be engaged
a once, .•rd IT%0 r.cw•science iaborat-
o ies 4 quipped. A good gymnasium
has been secured and a well' known
instructor and director of atheietics is
being engaged. Pains for the coming
year have already been submitted to
the Education Department in outline,
and it is t',nderstood they will be ac-
ceptable to the department in granting
the same recognition of all degrees as
is given to the other universities.
With this handicap removed and
the new interest that is being awaken-
ed there are already indications of a
greatly increased enrollment of stud-
ents aft the Western for the coming'
year, especially as this is the nearest
for all. Western Ontario students, and
the expense cf living in London is
comparitively low.
Thee is no doubt but that a large
per cent of the degredation, disgrace
ruin and crime among the young
springs from the habit of night prowl
ing, corner loafing and kindred acts
by both sexes in city, town and ham-
let all over this broad country. Any
person who keeps his or her eyes op-
en knows this. Hundreds of boys and
girls are out at night and we all know
that many influences for evil and none
for good surround thein continually.

ROME, May 25.—An attack by air
and sea on northern Italy, delivered
before the time sot for the opening
of hostilities, was Austria's reply to
Italy's declaration of war which was
delivered ort Saturday. Four cities
on the Adriatie coast wore attacked
by destroyers and aeroplanes. Slight
damage was done. Minor clashes
between bordo±' patrols occurred in
the Austrian Tyrol and along the
eastern frontier ai Italy.
.Austrian destroyers and torpedo
boats raided - the Italian Adriatic
coast before daybreak of Sunday.
Simultaneously a fleet of Austrian
aeroplanes attempted au attack on
the arsenal at Venice. After a brief

exchange of shots Italian torpedo
boats, which had been expecting the
attack, drove off the Austrians. Like
success attended the counter-attacks
of the aircraft gunners and the Ital-
ian aviators in repelling the Austrian
air raidere.
King Victor Emmanuel, accom-
panied by Gen. Brusati, lett far the
front at 5 o'cieck yesterday after-
noon. The King dropped ail affairs
of state, leaving the responsibility
fol- the civil administration in the
hands of the Ministry- Tee King's
departure followed that of all the
princes of the royal house, watt have
been directed to assume commands
in the first line.
Italy's first day in the war witness •
ed only minor encounters, but both
on the offensive and defensive the
Italian colors came off victorious.
Two British warships co-operated
with the Italian fleet in a naval bat-'
tle in the Adriatic, according to un-
official report. The remainder of the
Austrian fleet fled. northward, the
Anglo -Italian fleet pursuing the en-
emy warships until they got under
the guns of Pole.
The position Italy finds herself in
is extremely curious. Since March
4 negotiations with Austria have
been broken off. Parliament has
pronounced in favor of war; has con-
ferred full plenary powers on the
Government to make war, and has
provided for the prosecution of the
war.
Rome Is delirious witb joy. Sev-
eral hundred . thousand persons,
headed by the' mayor, gathered' at
the Quirinal Friday night. When
members of the royal family ap-
peared on the balcony they were en-
thusiastically received. King Victor
was greeted with cries of "Log live
the King."
All navigation services on the
Adriatic have been suspended. The
Italian warships patrolling the Al-
banian coast have put into Cattaro,
an 'Austrian port in the southern ex-
tremity of Dalmatia, and close to
the Montenegrin frontier.
Italy took on Thursday the first
definite step toward her entry into
the war when, by a vote of 40ei to
'1I of the deputies present at the re=
opening of Parliament, full powers
o
were granted to the Government to
deal with all public matters after
the declaration of war against Aus-
tria, and authorizing the necessary
extraordinary expenditure. The de-
cision as to the form which the open
break with Austria will take and its
exact date was left with the Cabinet.
The movement of Italian troops
toward the northern and eastern
frontiers proceeds apace. Gen. Ca-
dorna, the chief of staff, le at Vi-
cenza to take full command of the
1,700,000 soldiers now in the nortb-
ern zone,
Italian refugees from Pole report
that the Austrian police broke into
their bouses and seized their furni-
ture. Practically the entire male
population of the port, the refugees
said, has boon pressed into military
service, and the women and children
of Italian nationality fear they will
be placed in detention camps or in
prison.

Fire was discovered a few minutes
after 12 o'clock on May 24th in the
building owned by F. A, Oarnpbell
and eceupied'by Mr. Itobert Chapman
as a garage. The building was pretty
well burned out, and three cars almost
destroyed. One, belonging to Mr.
Kelly, of Listowel, had been run in
only about 10 minutes before. it was
insured, The automobile of Dr. Gibbs,
of Mitehell. was destroyed with loss
of about $200, Mr. Campbell's loss is
quite heavy. The building was insur-
ed.' . Cause of the fire is a rnyf;tery, as
Mr. Chapman had been out of the
building only about 10 minutes when
'the alarm was turntd in.
The 24th of May celebration, . under
the auspices of the Mitchell Sporting
Association, was a big success; the
weather was delightful and everything
passed off without a hitch:it The trains
in the morning brought large crowds
from the east and west, and the Citi-
zens' Band played to and from the
station for the early morning train.
The Stratford Regimental Bugle,
Band, accompanied by Company "G,"
paraded the town from 9 to 10 o'clock.
At 10:30 a. m, a baseball game took
place in Ieterson Park between Ful-
lerton and Mitchell teams, and much
enthusiasm prevailed, as the play was
very close from start to finish. The
score was 6 to 5 in favor of the visit-
ing team.
In the afternoon fully six thousand
people passed through the gates, and
they got the worth of their money, as
the racing events aexe all well filled,
and some fast thane was made. The
management is well pleased with the
success of the celebration.

dressers, singing and dialogues. A sil-
ver collection in 'aid of the Sunday
school was taken up Sunday' and Mon-
day end amounted: to about x:60.
Everyone had a most enjoyable time,
WHV not give your lad 1
��1r► ��jj the same training? j
"When 2 was a growing lad, and came
upon many words in my reading that
I did not understand, any mother, in-
stead of giving me the definition when
I applied to her, uniformly sent me to
the dictionary to learn it, and in this
way I gradually learned many things
besides the meaning of the individual
word in question—among other things,
how to use a dictionary, and the great
pleasure and advantage there might
be in the use of the dictionary.
Afterwards, when I went to the village
school, my chief diversion, after les-
sons were learned and before they
were recited, was in turning over the
pages of the 'Unabridged' of those
days. Now the most modern Una-
bridged—theNEW INTERNATIONAL—
gives me a pleasure of the same sort.
So far as my knowl:dge extends, it is
at present the best of the one -volume
dictionaries, and quite sufficient for
all ordinary uses. Even those who
possess the splendid dictionaries in
several volumes will yet find it a great
convenience to have this, which is so
compact, so full, and so trustworthy
as to leave, in most cases, little to be
desired."—Albert S. Cook,Ph.D.,LL.D.,
