Listen to the blunt way the Lis- towel Danner .pari• puts it: "There are many men who will pledge allegiance ,to the Mag and the country, and yet are no dad-blamedindolent to mew the boulevard fin front of their homes." "A father is often restrained from chiding his sou kor not passing an ,exam," remarked Tile Toronto Star, "by the knowledge thatlse,could not have passed it himself to have saved - his life,'; 1t is a good thing- there's something to restrain those stere :fathers. The Imperial Conference is to be ;.postponed to. allowthe new Premier' of Canada;: whoever he may be, to compose his .features and settle hie nerves a little before. having to it • down with the 'statesmen of the other. dominions to consider the affairs of the Empire, Those who are skeptical. about•the • .value of "domestic science taught in public schools will agree with the Mayor of Lynn, who expressed indig, nation at having to pay bilis of '$1$1 for" an automatic potato Peeler and X295 for a meat -chopper .for the' de- • partment, of education. "What incen , . tive .has a ,young man to seek a wife," hslcs the Mayor, -"if he must have a $1p1 machine to peel her potatoee and a $295'meat chopper to prepare the :'hash?"-I{.incardine Review -Reporter. The drowning • of e1 ven"bo s mem- : e Y e m bars of a boys' outing , camp, 'by the upsetting opt a war canoe in Balsam. Lake last week bungs ,home in -in :tragical manner the danger eneount- • ered every -tune a party of young people set out in such a light c •taft. ar canoe, .as far as we can ath- .t3. w e no , >, g • er, is much like any other, except that it holds more people. It is easily up- set and it leaves little -to cling to _ when upset. We have no authority for, thinking that this accident was caused by. fault of anyone, but - with fifteen active )boys-allbut two. ofthe company were boys -unless they were underalmostmilitary dis- cipline,it would be next thing to imtii- possible to keep themas quiet as they should be in a canoe, and if the sea were rough" the danger would.' be the greater, It looks tike taking ;-too big -a risk to take„ so many boys together in a canoe. Nothing, could be much finer than the self-sacrificing .bravery of the leader of the eanip, who filing him- self into the water in order to' make room for others on the bottom of the up -turned canoe, Had the accident not happened en a lonely part of the lake, where there were iio oottages some of the victims might !have been :saved.. • *nom:' Another* tragody which happened in. Ontario over the week -end was the death of eixt'een persons from drink- ing bootleg tighiskey, supposedly sup- plied from the TJniteli States. The victims resided in Bamilton,.Toronto, Oakville' and points •adjacent, distri- bution being made along the Hamil- ton highway. Others have also died in the State of New York, bringing the number up to nearly forty. At- torney -General Nickle is taking the matter up and a thorough investiga- tion will be made and, it is hoped, the guilty parties will be punished. rt 'nay take some'sueli tragedy to arouse the authorities to a sense of their responsibility in checking this nefarious traffic. The Mail and Em- pire, commenting linenthesmuggling of liquor Ibaek and forth across the border says:. "Those wild think that this smuggling can centime day by day'and year after year without Can- adian police •knowing anything about- it have rather a low opinion of the in- - telligenee n--'telligence of those•police." There are very few people but know .that a lot •of such smuggling could be 'stopped if the authorities ' were doing -their duty, 'and `perhaps something of an :arresting nature, such as the death 'of numbers of people, will arouse aeverybody to a sense' of the serious- •tress of the situation. The. Globe calls attention to the responsibility of the general .public in the matter when it says editorially: ' • "Nor should the light• for the ex- tinction of this evil be darned' on 'only through the machinery of the law. It • should have not only the sympathy. of ',the community, but its active support .and co-operation.: :Public ••: opinion should play its part -a most impor- -ta'r't: part -in destroying, a traffic -which-is striking not only at the lives ,of the weals and vicious, but at the • rery root of our conception• of moral- ity. Without that assistance it will he ,ale the more difficult .to cope,witli •the well -organized forces and the ap- •parently unlimited means behind the -evil. Attorney -General Niekle has al- ready begun .a searching investiga- tion, and it is needles to say .that he -wiII'press his inquiry to the utmost. The people at large have hereto- -foto ' been apathetic in the matter. They have even treated the war be- tw en the lawe and othe g mg" b gas something of a jest.' Their attitude has beeml that the fight was none of, their concern,, and they refused to in- , •terfere. Will they realize now, with fifteen deaths to the credit account"et "contraband whiskey,, that the fight is 'one .between the •.bootlegge.r and 'themselves." Many of the towns of Ontario dur 'ing the present season have had more or less disagreeaf6le "flag incidents," where Canadians have Objected to the 'flying of. the Stars and Stripe`s by. American visitors without the court •esy of an etccompanivinig Union .Jack, Wc he a come to the v conclusion that when visitors 'fromnacross the ~border come to -visit us, (and we wish thein to come) that the fying of their own fag is not intended as an insult "-to us or to the Union Jack, blit mere - '4Y is their way of introducing .them- selves as citizens of the United States. It used to get us all "het up" arid! we rather ,sympathized with the hot-headed youths who snatched the offending. c, din flag from th g g e offending automobile and flung• ,it on the ground. We L feel that way any •more We have not changed our mind about the lack of courtesy in the act, but we absolve e the offenders, at - least the great majority of them; from any intention to.offend, They do not realize that they are doing anything discourteous. They are proud of their flag and wish everybody to know that they are citizens of the United States, so they ,take this way of :showing it. They have not been taught, probably, that it is an act of discourtesy to fly the flag of -a foreign country without - the flag of the ,country in which they are guests. They will learn that in time. The' United States always seems to set a little hit like . a _big; overgrown boy, one who has reached the stature, of a man ..before he has attained to a man's, judgement. He is, therefore, always doing sornetliirg which might better have ` been done another way; would have been done another way had the judgement been matured. He is always sure he is right, however, and wishes to infpress' people with his importance. These are gall faults whirr time will euro." At least, they nsually are cured by time. Canadians seldom get into any trouble over flying flags in the United States. "Ah, but we would if we did it," someone is sure -.to say: Yes, per- haps we should, but that is not' the reason. eve do not do it.:. We British people do not feel that we must' fly the Union Jack everywhere we go. It doesn't prove that we are, not proud of our country; 'it Only proves ;that we are sire of ourselves of our position; we have been here a long tinne and. our _position is known to everyone: Even we he Canada, this country which is younger . than -the United; States,have that settled, sure feeling. We belong to a great Em- pire, we need not trouble about our position. It is as secure es the Brit- ish Empire. So, we Canadians' shouldn't allow these httle things to ruffle ps. "It were well if the proper authorities would quietly inform Americans of their error if they fail to observe the niceties of international coif tesy, but it semis -to us to be a mistake for private individuals to interfere or make trouble. Everyone who comes into. Canada is the guest of every. Canadian. To treat a guest with any. thing, but courtesy, even their man- nets are not•the best, should be...be- neath the dignity of a Canadian. Personally 'we haveseen a number oe American cars in --Clinton this sea- son but have not seen one flying the Stars and Stripes without the Union .lack, although we are informed that some have done so, As we said, our big neighbor will learn, and example is a valuable teacher, especially when the lesson to be taught is good man- ners.
