University of Toronto's display' at the
Canadian National Exhibition. .The
information given in largo blue letters

provincial university had something

tension courses already in operation.
To the farmer, the industrial laborer,

THE' GIFT HORSE
Iroraanci--"S1:re, he's a tine creature, de Valola. Why not give him a trial?"
A Portal of Peace.
Up in the far Northwest an inter-
esting ceremony was staged 'or Sep:
tember 6th. It was the dedication of
an international ar,li -commemorative
of the more thana'century of peace
between the United States and Great
Britain, dating from the proclamation
of the Treaty of Ghent in 1815. For
10fi years we have lived in arnity with
our great neighbors to the south along
3,000 miles of friendly contact on an
lnnerined, unfoetified, political And arti-
ficial boundary,
The monument, which was dedicated
under the auspices of the Internation-
al Peace Memorial Association of
Seattle and the International Peace
Association of British Co]•umbia rests
partly on American and'partly on Gan -
sullen soil. It covers and crosses the
boundary line. The American side of
the peace arch is in Blaine, Washing-
ton; the Canadian side is in Surrey,
British Columbia, The arch is a mas-
sive and impressive structure, sug-
gesting ranter a stately, square door-
way than a monument.
A door it in reality is—a door ever
hospitably open into friendly neigh-
boring territory. It has doors, too,
actual doors, 'heavy, swinging doors.
They fold back into deeply recessed
walls. Across the top of one of them
in inscribed: "Open for 100 Years";
across the other, "May These Doors
Never Be Closed." Across the base
on the American side is the legend:.
"Children of a Common Mother";
across the base on the Canadian side
are the words: "Brethren Dwelling in
Unity Together."
Originally it was intended that the
Governments of Canada and the Un-
ited States should build the monument,
and this in time might have been clone.
But government are sluggish in action.
To conform to their process involved
the unwinding of too much red tape
to suit Samuel Hill, president of the
Pacific Highway Association. He cut
the tape by the simple process et
furnishing the $80,000 required to pay
for the pile himself.
At the dedication a Canadian girl
ran up the Union Jack on the north
side and an American girl ran up the
Stars and Stripes on the south side.
There were religious services and
'speeches and a general cordial hand-
shaking and a jolly good time.
The slvallow's mouth, in proportion
to its size, is larger than that of any
other bird.
Arrogance.
The poet has asked why should the
spirit' of mortal he proud. The prosaic
likewise are led to ask why any man
should be puffed up with conceit for
aught that the has done. Iiow can we
look at a star and reflect on the size
of it and still believe in our own
bigness and our own infatuated dig-
. 9
One of the things a child has to
leant -when he crines away from the
sheltering arms of his home is that
he must now make a place for himself
in a crowd of eager competitors. They
all are seeking what he seeks. It will
be no "walk -over." That is, he may
not trample upon the individual rights
of others. IIe must defer; he must be
°patient, end mannerly, and bide his
tilne and take his chance—and still be
alert to go and to do, to work and
to win, depending on his own right
arm and his own force and motion to
succeed. -
Perhaps the child had his own way
too much. rte was spoiled; and now
conies the sudden shock of disillusion-
ment as lie finds that there are others

Theconsimer,an who has to work for a
livelihood ought to know better than
to be overbearing; the man whose
wealth permits hila to be idle should
have learned that he holds his great
possessions but as steward or trustee!
—the servant of a power higher than
his head. Neither poverty nor riches
establishes the right to be domineer-
ing, brusque, inconsiderate and inflat-
ed with the megalomaniac notion that
whatever stands in. our path is a
thing to be crushed, and our own
pleasure must be gratified even at the
cost of pain to many.
The world is so acutely and so con-
stantly interdependent that the part
each woman or man plays in it direct-
ly matters to all the rest. If we take
more than our share, somebody else
gets less than bis share. But there
is more than enough to go round—
there is plenty for everybody—if we
all have the will to work and Win
that willingness we grant others the
same right to earn a living that we
ourselves enjoy. Those who refuse to I
obey the law that bestows the reward s
upon the workers and penalizes the
idlers have no right to dictate to the
inlustrious who hfrve;i'dbeived what
they deserve. And there are idle poor,
just as there are idle rich, who cling
to the wrong and the selfish point of
view.

Whirlpools "of the Sky
The envelope of air eur,ounding the
earth, which wo call the atmosphere,
is in many ways like the waters of the
seas. Its currents take the roan of
winds; and just as is 111e c:asn with
sea and river em•rents, ahoy form
great whirlpools every now and then.
If the huge eddy of wind esotontn is
revolving in the opposite direction to
that taken by the hands of a clock it
is called a cyclone; an anticyclone
whirls in a clockwise direction.
There is anther difference between
the two, which is of greats important.
Tho cyclone is a whirlpool in which the
greatest pressure is on the outside
edge of the current and the lowest at
its centre. 011 ail anticyclofne these
conditions are roversed, Pressure is
lowest at the fringes and highest in
the centre of the eddy.
High pressure means at high bar•
ometer and fine weather; low pressure
gives a low glaze and rain, The eyc<

always brings bad weather, The anti-
cyclone is raihy and squally at fts•
fringes, but its centre le' alway4' carr
