®N November 30th last, the
Muskoka Free Hospital for
Consumptives was destroyed by
fire. -
On January 14, this year, Sir
William Gage, founder of the insti-
tution -the one man who had con-
tributed most largely to its support,
c
and for twenty-five years the out-
standing friend of needy consump-
tives -died.
To -day, more than ever before,
poor, suffering consumptives need

The Muskoka% Free Hospital
for Consumptives, destroyed by
fire on November 30th last,must
be replaced by buildings, larger
and fireproof.
Accommodation is needed at
the Muskoka Free Hospital for
400 adults in early stages of
the disease. This will restore 250
of them to their homes and loved
ones --cured. The remainder will
be greatly benefited.
A few months for each patient
soon means thousands cared for.
Funds are urgently needed for
this work.
Again -adults in advanced
stages must be treated at the
King Edward Sanatorium, on the
banks of the Humber, near
Weston. Extensions are neces-
sary. Many of these patients can
be saved.
And again -little children--
stricken
hildren-striclten with the dread disease -
must be cared for at the Queen
Mary Hospital for Consumptive
Children, near Weston. Ninety
per cent. of these are saved to
become healthy men and women.
Funds are urgently needed to
cover the cost of extensions.
Further, funds are urgently
needed to carry on the work of
The Gage Institute•in the City of
Toronto, where the needy poor
come for free examinations, in.
eluding X-ray, and for medical
and nursing assistance.
Fifteen thousand needy con-
sumptives have been cared for
to date at the hospitals con•
ducted t' i' the Association.

The o rt o r.Ge 1 shi . of Cen-
t* is a particularly hard, position

o1 brilliant mental t.l endowment to
`sink his personality anal become ''a,
glorified cog In tate Imperial nlach-
4ne, It is not a position to which it
fighting leader would aspire, or in
which be would be possible, A bril-
ilant orator on tate viae-rgggal throne
might prove a disaster, liarticularly
if he declined ' to have his, speeches
censored by the .official judges of
tact and diplomacy, Willingnegs to
be led .as well as nbtltiy to lead is
a necessary virtue in it Governor-
General,
In the Duke of Devonshire, Canada
has possessed a vlee-regent" of tbor-
ougly sound common sense who has
instinctively avoided violating the
rules of the game.
By birth a member of the "govern-
ing classes," and by natural endow-
ment qualified to stand anion states-
men, the Duke has successfully re-
sisted any temptation to rule, and
has consilstently demonstrated itis
willingness to serve. Whilst his of-
ficial acts have, to a great extent,
been necessarily stereotyped, he ihas
In his numerous speeches given weigh-
ty advice that has influenced the trend
of public thought.
For some, time rumor has been
busy with prophecies regarding 'Ga n-
ada's next Governor-General. The lat-
est nominee is the Duke of Northum-
berland. The question has been rais-
ed whether it is necessary to import
a vice-regent from overseas. Can Can-
ada raise her own Governor-Gener-
alsl The question is a natural one.
Canadians are successfully holding
down infinitely more trying positions
of state overseas and it is coming to
be more and more conceded that a
man bort and bred in an intimate
knowledge of Canadian affairs would
be of more practical value to the
country than the best possible choice
from outside the Dominion. Our Gov-
ernor -Generals come to u: at an age
that is too far advanced to enable
them to fit Into new ph sisal sur-
roundings. With the best will in the
world it is impossible for thorn to
shake down and really b.conie one
of us, However enthusi isticaliy a
new vice-regent may take up his dut-
ies, it is inevitable that before long
the old ties and associations will
exert their irresistible pull. While
physically he niay be in Canada, his
heart will be overseas.
Canada is at the threshold of its
greatest development. She needs in
every position of leadership men whose
hearts are all the 'time and altogether
vitally interested in her concerns,
