For train service going and returning see handbills or consult Agents, CANADIAN NATIONAL -WHAT THE WEATHER DOES A men•chaut was, d8esusei.ng his business problems' in a reasonable sort of 'way whet. a Post repre- sentative, and naturally enough be made reference to the backward ,state of the weather. This was tics -experience: I think we have to take Just as much chance as, the fernier does. 'I admit he hie ne control over the weather and when he putsin. his crop he cannot see ahead to the day of harvest ands have any proper idea oft what he is going to get by way of 'return for his Divestment and effort. "We do muchthe same. We have to base our burying on what we an- ticipate in the way of turnover froml normal weather, This year spring weather has remained so cold that *men are wearing the same overcoats they did in the 'winter time and they have not yet felt ' the need of making a change. But we bad stocked spring overcoats in anticipation of the .usual seasonal detnsanl and we have disposed of owly a few of 'therm. Those who axe in the ladles' wear business are finding it somewhat the same and in some ways they have to take greater ohanlcee because stylus change more rapidly than they 'do in' men'g wear. "I am not asking any farmer friends to feel sorry for men in busi- ness, but merely sugesbing that the :man in business has to take just about as much of a weathenchance as the man who depends on, tlhe land for his living," HOW CAN WOMEN BE GREAT ? Today we hear untch criticism of women because, whilst they have bad for a, considerable time equal status with men, they love not attained out• e :nndttug prominence he any of the fine arts, sciences, or politics. It is quite true we have no women, writers to coanpate with Shakespeare, Ten - 013011 ce. S cont, and no artist to cent-. pipet' with, tlhe great da Vinici. It is a.1ea quite true •we have no unusual composers of outstanding merit, al- though do the interpretation, of o ther's \---erns wounen.s+tattd second to none. Perhaps we must even admit that c ey the name of Madame Curie -eds. out in' the world of .science, and that dw (politics women still play a very small pate, - liewever, would prom r:ence in any one ar all these ,make women in gen- eralgreat? Would • re of snceesls in any one or all of them place women in, the category of failures? A writer once ,said, "If your natue is to live at all St is so much better to have it live in peoplefs hearts than only in their brains." With that statement as our measuring rule, I belivee wo- men today stand out in unsurpassed glory. From: the days of the •Crim - eat War when our beloved Florence Nightingale made her way in and out of dreary wards bringing retie; from Pain and loneliness, women's field of service to humanity has steadily. widened; eine' new it teens a definite part oaf our social structure.
