Boston 'Iranscipt:-"It was an trocious exhibition of the barbarity of German military law and of the savagery, of the German military character." Chi- cago Herald—''It sent a wave of indig- nation round the world." These and scores of others are not the outbreathings of the British subjects, who might be justly shocked at the murder of the Can- adian heroine, but indignant comments from the press. As she was supposed to be under the protection of the American legation the cold blooded murderers gave personal affront to the Uuited States. There are no boundaries, however, that militaryisnt will not make bold to over- leap. Obliteration of the nefarious sys- tem is the cure. Editorial Notes eseseseseposeemeeseaesesee public affairs. Sir Charles was a scholarly man, a medical doctor by profession,. t good speaker, incisive debater and in his demise the last of the notable Fathers of Confederation, passed over to the great majority.He retained wonderful vigoror and activity long after most men cease to be even interested in what is going on. Canada had a great exponent wherever Sir Charles Tupper went. There is quite an outcry by a number of towns and villages this Fall over depre dations carried on after nightfall by the boys who are not under hone control, If a census were taken of the lads and lassies who spend the majority of their evenings under the parental roof the probabilities are it would astonish you. How would the enumeration find things at your habitation? Many a youth receives the first lessons in a way- ward life byy being schooled in the roving bands to be found in many a municipali- ty after hours when they should be safely housed , under parental guidance and discipline. Culture, training, . the school and the church can easily be offset where undue liberty and apparent indifference as to the whereabouts of the children are evidenced. We are not pessamistic but the danger signals are flying and should not be ignored until it is too late. • . In commenting on the slaying of. Nurse Cavell the New York Sun says, •'It struck the world with horror.- The eou.a,,ry. `All that we had; at that time to defend our Pacific coast was one Jap anese ship, one British cruiser,, one Canadian training ship, manned, 1 am proud' to say, by young Cana diens taken in Most cases from the ordinary walks ,of life, and two Can- adian .ubmarines, also manned by Canadians, who had cheerfully re- sponded to the call when it was made.,, In view of this authoritative ac- knowledgement of the need of naval protection in .home waters: when war came, and the no less authoritative acknowledgement of the service ren- dered by what little in the way of a navy Canada had at that time, thanks chiefly to the wrecking of the Cana- dian Naval policy by the Nationalist - Conservatives, it may not be out of plthat polcy woaceuldthave . providedrecalltin the wayiof protection. The Laurier Naval policy would have given to Canada in 1914 one big cruiser` of the "Bristol” class and two torpedo-boat destroyers of the approved "Acorn" type, in addition to the cruisers Niobe and Rainbow and the other smaller war craft in existence as part of the Canadian Navy for patrol service; also there could have been six submarines which it has since been demonstrated could be built in Canada in very short time and which would certainly have been built as submarines had become se important an arm of the British naval service. To -day, there would have been still another big cruiser, and at least one More destroyer, even if the emergency of war had not hur- ried construction and provided more than these. The official records show that the Preliminary advertisement for ten- ders for vessels, for the Canadian Navy was published in July, 1010. No less than 19 fines replied to this Preliminaryadvertisement. As cer- tain qualifications. wererequired, only 13 of these firms were approved, and further restrictions .brought down to 10 the number of firmswho were supplied with specifications.

CLOP. PALPITATION OF 'THE HEART. Sudden fright or emotion may cause a momentary arrest of the heart's action, or some excitement or apprehension may set up a rapid action of the heart thereby causing palpitation. Palpitation again is often the result of digestive disorders arising from the stomach,' or may be the result of over indulgence of tobacco or alcoholic drinks. The only way to regulate this serious heart trouble is to use Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills. Mrs. J. S.

JOHN TOR1IANCE, Inspector of M. R. Dated Nov, 1, 1915. Clinton GENERAL LEWIS HALL. chief of one of the most important branches of the service. General Hall was born in 1855, of a military family. His father was a Major-General with a splendid record in the artillery. After -passing his examinations„ General Hall entered the Royal Marine Artillery in 1873, and twelve years later was made le captain on the Indian Staff Corps. He attained his majority in 1893 and be- came a Lieutenant-Colonel in the In- dian Army in 1899, achieving a full Colonelcy in 1906. The following year he became a Companion of the Bath, and in 1910 he retired, still a young man. After his retirement lie.entered with zest into his hobby of aeronau- tics and soon became a recognized ex- pert, as well as a prominent member of the Aero Club. The outbreak of the war gave him recognition of his work, and he was gazetted General. Now he has full charge of the air scouts 1n France. contract. This tender offered an al-. ternative bid for building at the ten- derer's own yards in England., Tender No. 5 agreed 30 the time limit and named a site on the St. Lawrence River where it would erect the necessary plant to 'handle the work. Tender No. 6 agreed to the time limit, and all other stipulations in- cluding the building of the ships in Canada, but did not specifically indi- cab the site of the plant. Tender No. 7 also agreed to the time limit and all other specifica- tions, including building in Canada, but did not indicate the site to be chosen. From the above it will be seen that no less than seven responsible firms, including some of the biggest ship- buildir.,g concerns in the world, were willing to undertake the building of a Canadian Navy, with Canadian ' workmen, in Canada, and that they ' were willing to guarantee delivery which would have meant a fighting Canadian Navy at the present time. That the thing could be done, de- spite carping criticism, 01 Tory news- paper's seeking to please the. Anti - Navy Nationalists, has been proved since the war. It is an open secret that a Canadian shipbuilding yard, completing contracts for as Ameri- can firm which was not allowed to do the worst in its own country, bas built and sent to sea' a number of tip -Lo -the -minute submarines within the past few months: Press, reports tell that four of theso submarines traveled under their: own power to the Dardanelles and are to clay apart of the glorious Allied fleet, Piano for Sale.

The fate of an airman who comes to grief gonerally becomes known to his comrades, and through them is communicated to his friends at home. The explanation of this is that a prac- tice has sprung up on both sides of dropping messages into the opposing lines reporting exactly ,what has hap- pened to any dyer who has been forc- ed to descend. One of these mes- sages dropped in the Brittah lines showed an intimate • knowledge of London. After mentioning that a par- ticular airman.had been taken pris- oner, but was uninjured, the message continued: "Hope the British avia- tors;are going strong.
