the Customs epartment, upon Mich issue it was ignominiously
def e., ted in th r, House of Corn i onset
Here are the vital stubborn facts:
1 'In September,1925, Mr. King was granted dissolution
by. His 'Excellency Lord Byng; on the representation
that he must be given a chance to secure a ;clear
working majority. He stated at Richmond Hill that
'if such a- majority was not forthcoming, he would
•
not attempt,.to carry on.
2 In the old Parliamentthus dissolved there had been
234 members, of whom ` 117.' were Liberals, 66 were.:
Progressives or Independents and 51 were Con
seryatives.
3 In the new Parliament, elected in October, 1925,
Meighen had by far the largest group -almost
half the total membership of the House. Out of 245
seats the Conservatives had 116, the Liberals 101, the
Progressives 24, Labour. 2, and Independents 2.
4.Instead of immediately resigning, as heshould have
done in view of, the ground upon which he.had been
granted dissolution,. Mr. King asked ' for and was
granted leave to carry on, on the assurance that he
would leave the fate' of his administration to
Parliament itself.
5 On Friday, June25th, three separate motions by so-
called independents, in support of which Mr. Kin'g's
Government marshalled, its last .ounce of strength,
were decisively defeated 'and the original motion of
censure, to which the foregoing had been moved in •
amendment, was stili awaiting decision in Parliament
-when Mr. King asked His Excellency for dissolution
• on Monday, June 28th.
6 To have granted Mr. King a dissolution under such
circumstances would have been a direct denial of
the right of Parliament to pass upon the vote of •
censure then pending,
7 Following Mr. King's resignation, Parliament by a
majority of 10 did actually adopt a direct vote of
censure on the King Government, and 'declared it
unworthy of confidence or office.
8 It was Mr. King's refusal, to follow British precedent
in 'co-operating with the incoming administration to
pass supplies and complete the sessional programme
that left Mr. Meighen no alternative but to ask for
dissolution.
9 Mr. Meighen followed the same course as : that
:adopted by Sir Wilfrid Laurier in 1911, when he. ,
saw that it was impossible to carry on and abruptly
dissolved Parliament.
10 If His Excellency had recalled Mr. King to office, he
would have done so in the very face of Parliament's,
vote of censure.
Under Mr. King's interpretation of the constitution a°
Premier need never resign, but could demand dis-
solution after dissolution, despite the verdict of
Parliament t or the electorate, and the Governor
General-mustperforee accept his advice.

greatly doubt it. There is a satisfac-

else affords.
We may so thoroughly enjoy a holi-
day that we wish it might last for-
ever, but we should soon grow tired
if we had to ,put in all our time holi-
daying. Not that I've ever proved it
by actual experience, es my holidays
have always terminated' earlier than
my enjoyment of them. But to have
no other objeet in life than to enjoy
oneself 'seems to me to be one of
the most unsatisfactory states iinag-
inable. What inakes a holiday so en-
joyable is the change from routine

school girl or boy what gives them
the most satisfaction when the ex-

put in some strenuous hours in pre-
paration of the difficult ones andthey,

in' achieving success.
To accomplish anything even in the
way of success in sports hard work is
neeessary. We have seen .girls, as

tive games, energy which they would
have hesitated to expend in actual,
work. I do not think this energy was
wasted, although it was but a game.

learning by experience the lesson that
nothing worth ' while . can be aceom

It is well to learn this lesson early,
in life. One then begins to take d
real interest in one's work, to take it
on as "a game" in which one,endeav-
ors to excel. The happiest people in
the world are the people who have
work to do, work which they enjoy
and in which they find a constant
stimulus.

WIN'GHAM: Late ,Saturday night
or early 'Sunday morning burglars
broke into the garge of Patterson
Brothers, tOsephine street, and se-
cured a Ford coupe , and then broke
into the Super Test Gas .Station and
filled up with gas.. The jewelry store
of W. R. Hamilton was then entered
from the back, a small hole being cut
in the doe9.,.but they were unable to
make an entrance that way. The back
window was broken, the safe, which
contained all the valuables, was op-
ened and it is supposed that its was
the work of an expert, as it had not
been b'lo'om. Ond of the inner com-
partments containing the diamond
rings was forced open. Every dia-
mond ring and watch was taken. The
board containing the repair jobs was
ssintouchecl. No insurance was car-
vied.
