MATTRaws, former Deputy Treasurer of Ontario. who took n sudden departure to the U S. some time ago, has been apprehended at Santo Clara, California, where he was partner in a quick -lunch business. His acquaintance with "hot dog" may be R preparation for future warm times he may have on his program. RUMOR has it that Henry Ford may run as a Senator in Michigan, If he makes as good a go at it as he has in manufacturing the tin Lizzie there should be something doing if he is elect- ed, He might show some of the Repub- lican brethren how to save gas and still get there. DOMINION Parliament should be induc- ted to carry ouc their threat to "clip the wings of the Senate." A better am- putation than the scissors could make would be to cut its head right off, Sup- posing the Commons did legislate to decapitate, the "aid boys" might be able to grow aootber by their veto. The Senate is playing a reprehensible part in slamming the C. N. R. It's on the principle of throwing bricks at your- self. WosDER whose business it is to bob the weeds on the street sides and road- sides 1 It is too bad to see these crops allowed to dourish so luxuriantly when law says it shall not be. Like many another Statute the Weed Section is often a corpse instead of a living, act- ing personality and as a result instead of tidiness and clean farming the oppo- site is the result, Credit is to be given to some municipalities for their effort to live up to the meaning of the law, DOMINION MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE bas been asked to change the egg grad- ing law so that tbe farmers will do the grading. Selling by weight instead of the dozen is also urged, The egg de- partment has become a very important factor both to the people on the farm and the poultry fanciers off the broad acres. Getting the ben fruit while it is fresh is one of the essentials, There's nothing a person will lose interest in quicker than a stale egg. Mr. Mother- well promises reconsideration of the rules and regulations dealing with this household necessity, TRE Pos'1' seconds the motion to have Hansard cut out of the Dominion Parliament as a useless expenditure. It cost for 1923 the tidy sum of $61,514 ; 1922 was $62,400 and for 1921, $54.892, After the general public have read the daily press they don't give a cent, as a rule, what Hansard says.

PORTERFIELD, Clerk, Mrs. Nellie McClung on Government Sale in B. C. Mrs. McClung, well known in Ontario an a Lecturer and authoress, has boon living to British Columbia, and has this to say of its much vaunted Government Salo law 1. - "The liquor interests, even with all their money, can never win a victory civet the forces ,.of intelligence and morality, if only the people know the truth about that vague thing called Government Control. "Here in B. C. there is no "Control" about it The Government acts as the distributors for the brewers and distillers. As one of the Police Com- missioners of this City (Victoria) puts it—"The Government's policy is to alcoholize the people for profit. It is a policy of saturation, rather than con trot." • ® SELL ALL THEY CAN. "In Government reports business is called "good." when the sales are large. One member of the liquor Control Board is advocating the dotting of this city with Liquor stores, kept open all night. He says now that we are in the booze business, we might as well get in it good and plenty ; for that is the only way to compete with the Bootlegger." "Bootleggers under Government Control 1 Yee, indeed. According to the B- 0, press, this is "the Boot- legger's Paradiee," Hundred of places in Vancouver sell liquor, openly and flagrantly, in defiance of the law." BETTER HAVE THE OLD BARS, "I. have no hesitation in saying that Government Control, as seen here, is worse than the old bar system. Dozens of people in Vancouver have told me they would welcome the re- turn of the bar, in preference to what they have ; and they give as reasons : (1)—"The women would not frequent the bars as they do the Government Liquor Stores. (2)—"It would be easy to get cowrie. Hobe against the men who violate the law under a private sale system ; for the Government would have no reason for sheltering them, (31—There would be more arrests for drunkenness. No bueiness wants to penalize its own customers. The Government being the liquor seller, and the town constable finds the dual capacity eonfusing. IT HAS NOT 1' "Ll brief—this new liquor system hits not lowered the taxes, Vancou- ver spend 38.00 on liquor to get $1.00 back. "It has not saved the hontee.

A LAND OF ENCHANTMENT Picture luxuriant forest land, 2721 square miles in area, patterned with hundreds of cool, placid lakes which faithfully reflect the fleecy white clouds that go ecuddiug across a mar- ine blue sky. Picture thousands of porteutious little rock -dotted rivers marked here and there with ambit- ious little water -falls ; or myriads of fern bordered, gurgling brooks on the bauks of which is occasionally Been the white smoke from a camper's fire, languidly ascending through the pine - scented am to the leaves canopied over head.

Fox i BwiR of wood at the Angus Shops this full sized model of one of the latest type locomotives was designed originally as a feature of the dinner decorations at the Chateau Frontenac on the occasion of the Quebec con- ference of the Canadian Pacific Railway officers. Equipped with bell, whistle and electric lights, not a bolt or bar is lacking to mar the illusion which is that of a perfect engine coming through the wall against which it is placed. The headlight holds a portrait of E. W. Beatty, president of the Canadian Pacific. At the Toronto Exhibition, August 23rd to September 6th, the model will be given a prominent position in the Company's exhibit, Smokeless Locomotive L. It is announced that vigorous efforts will be made by the Gov- ernment of Manitoba to effect the actual settlement of 224,000 acres of vacant provincial -land now under the administration of the Crown.

This is an increase of $142,- 000 or 4.4 per cent. Reports from the Rouyn gold fields of Quebec continue to indi- cate a great future for that terri- tory. Development is proceeding apace and the English capital now flowing into Canada insearch of good investments is interesting it- self in this area.
