by force of arms is going a good many
steps too far. Quebec should he more

fact that one result of the victory that is

FIFTY YEARS OF
CANADIAN HISTORY
What Ontario Is Planning as Her
Share in Confederation Celebra-
tion—Qulet and Dignified
From On
• a semi -centen-
nial
one the se m
vial of Canadian confederation on the
1st day of July is being overshadowed
by Ole pressing necessities of the war
and by the series of political crises
through which Canada is passing this
anmmer,
From another aspect, however, the
extraordinary and d critical circum-
stances of the present time make this
semi -centennial even more eignificant,
IY it had occurred during a period of
peace and prosperity there would
doubtless have been many more fire-
works displayed and much more noise
and jubilation. It is doubtful, how-
ever, lY the people of the country
would have given as much attention
or thought to the Canadian Confedera-
tion both in its origin in 1507 and in
its present state in 1917 as they will
do under the quiet but more serious
and thought-provoking times of this
year.
Ontario's part in the celebration by
its quietness and its dignity will, it
is hoped, interpret the spirit of the
people of the province. On the sue-
gestlon of Mr. Rowell In the legisla-
ture at the last session a strong com-
mittee was appointed to arrange the
details. Municipalities throughout the
province have been asked to cooper-
ate in public meetings and demonstra-
tions to be held on Monday, July the
2nd, and a favorable response is be-
ing received from a large number of
them.
In Toronto the municipal authori-
ties, the school children, the military,
patriotic and public societies of all
kinds are Co-operating. There will be
a patriotic parade and a demonstration
at .Exhibition Park. Sir William
Hearst Icon. Dr. Pyne e and Hon.
y W.
D. McPherson are actin for g o the
Goveminent, Mr, Rowell and Mr. Dewart
for the Opposition.

Ontario Organization Committee is
Making Good Headway
Indications point to the success of
the Ontario Organization of Resources
Committee and allied organizations In
their efforts to recruit labor for the
farms of the province from ...new
sources to meet the present emergen-
cy, The secretary of the committee
at its recent meeting presented an
optimistic report, showing that city
workers, university and High School
students, both men and women, have
responded well to the call for help
and either have gone already to the
country or have made definite ar-
rangements to go at a suitable time.
It is estimated that the number al-
ready gone or arranged for reaches be-
tween ten and fifteen thousand. The
Trades and Labor Branch have sent
out 600 men and 600 boys; 609 wo-
men students are working on fruit
farms and 65 in canning factories.
District representatives of the Depart-
ment of Agriculture have secured help
to fill 120 applications from farmers;
6,000 school boys and 2,000 girls from
the public schools have gone to farms
and the War Production Club of To•
ronto, noting in conjunction with the
Organization of Resources Committee,
has sent over 1,000 men for farm work.
NOTES OF THE WEEK
The action of the Dominion Govern-
ment by order -in -council in suspending
betting on race tracks for the dura-
tion or the war, is a step which has
been well received by public opinion.
p'or a long time there has been agi-
tation 'for this measure by religious
and public bodies throughout the coun-
try, focussing in the attitude of the
Liberal Party in the Ontario legisla-
ture which made it one of their main
policies this last session. The Mail
and Empire e in commenting on the
P g
Federal Government's decision says,
"the Cessation of betting on race
tracks is ani
effective war economy n
o and
d
in the public interest. Racing itself
is not interferred with."

A WOMAN PROPOSED

East Middlesex Woman Declines --
Present Law Prohibits It—Notes

Mrs. Walter Soott of Moseley has
the honor of being the first woman
in Ontario proposed as a candidate for
the legislature. At the East Middle-

el butrs

leasant speech
P
declined the honor.
As a natter of fact, under the On•
tarso law to -day, women are not al-
lowed to sit as members of the legis-
lature, Mr, Rowell at the last session
of the legislature had a bill which if
passed, would have given women the
right to sitIn
the legislature as well
g
at to vote for candidates for that
body. The Govern)
ent,
however, er re-
jected the bill Mr,
Rowell in propos-
ing It showed that in all the Western
Provinces of Canada, in Australia and
in the States of the Union, where
there is woman suffrage, the right of
women to sit in the legislature goes
with it. The women do not need to
use that right if they do not care to,
nor do the people have to elect wo-
men if they do run, but at any rate
Mr. Rowell contended it was mere
justice now that women had the vote,
that they should have the right to sit
rn the legislature as well. Why, ou
this point, should there be discrimina-
tion in law between men and women?
Mrs. P. G. Keely and Mrs.. Margaret
Hyslop Have been two of the women
speakers at Liberal meetlugs recently.
At the West Wellington meeting in
Drayton, Mrs. Kiely, who is Honorary-
Secretary

haps more thanaI they themselves real--

opinion. Through their influence up-
on their children and hi their homes
they had provided that strong driving
force behind the law which alone
could make legislation effective, "This
measure of Wonsan Suffrage,” contin-
ued Mrs. Kiely, "which one hears so
frequently referred to as 'our right'
is in reality a duty which we owe to
our newly acquired citizenship and
in the discharge. of which we must not
allow ourselves to be intimidated by
those torrents 0f criticism which will
emanate from that class of individuals
to whom all innovations are abhor-
rent."

At Halton, Mrs. Hyslop said, that if
it was Premier Hearst's government
which technically did give Prohibition
and Votes for Women, yet it was with
the thorough co-operation of the Op-
position, and further that it was Mr.
Rowell and the Liberals who had done
the pioneer work for both these re-
forms and had supported and urged
it for years in spite of the opposition
of the Government. It was the itsfs-
