Murch and his assistant have not been able to arrange any holidays this summer, owing to the fact that ` they expect every day to have notice of the ap, pointment of a new postmaster. So far no appointment has, been an- nounced. , 1J 1J El "The new +Government has made a good impression by cutting salaries," -comments the Napanee Beaver. "But • the debt of a great Province is incur- redin ways that are not quite so op- en to the public view. The real test -will come when contracts have to be ' let and when friends of the Adminis-. -tration crowd for favors. It takes a • lot of courage, under those circum-' •stances to say no. But a fearless, honest and econom'[tcal Administra- tion which can do that over a period '.-•of years will earn the confidence and - support of the general mass of the people." --Globe. • But can any Government retain its • position and do as above? That's the question. Do the people really want Such a Government?' True, they want economy, but its the other fellow's salary they want eut, never by any chance their own. QUO It was a tragic few days over last week -end. The San Francisco strike • and all the regrettable happenings in 'connection therewith. the terrible end to the criminal career of Dillinger, - who was shot when emerging from a theatre in Chicago, after having • been hunted by police for months; the shocking los of life by drowning and in motor bus and street car ac- cidents in Canada; the wiping out of a whole family almost in a summers cottage fire at Camp Borden; the murder of a young mother in Toron, • to and holding of her husband pend Mg an investigation; the explosion in an oil barge with the loss of three - lives at Toronto and the heavy loss of life in the cities of the United States as a result of the heat wave, made scare heads in the newspapers • over the week -end. Violent deaths seem to be becoming almost comtnon- place, are we likely to become so accustomed to hearing of them that we shall cease to be horrified except when they happen to someone we know? E3 C 7 Ct] The News -Record has on more • than one occasion raised some such question as is here put forward by Bride Broder of the Mail and Empire: "It is the considered opinion of unprejudiced people who are and have been, closely in touch with the situation, that the closing of the majority of the training schools for nurses, far from be- ing a measure of econbmy,is the reverse. Compared with the cost of the great hospitals, the cost of many of the smaller ones ap- pear most moderate. Compared with the graduates of the great hospitals, the nurses who have been trained in many of the smal- ler hospitals come off with flying colors. Compared with the cures -effected in the great hospitals, the smaller hospitals can 'hold up •-their. heads with pride, as they point to their successes. Equip -e, anent to the nth degree may im- press the casual observer, but it does not always guarantee to the patient the best of care and treat- ment. In the great hospital -- and for this we have the frank testimony of the superintendent of nurses in a great hospital --'it is impossible to give a young nurse that individual instruction and supervision that she receives in smaller establishments in which failures can be noted more easily and good work encourage ed by definite recognition. Many a girl who has gone' into a'great hospital imbued with the finest feelings and filled with a desire to become everything ,that a nurse should be, has been turned into a hard-boiled machine, with sympathies dried up, finer feel- ings blunted and nothing but technique, which is an arid waste alone, as the outcome of her training in a hospital too stereo- typed, too crowded, too so-called efficient, to develop character and gentleness and sensitiveness which are the things that count in successful nursing," The ,Government in taking the ac - lion above mentioned was unduly in- fluenced by the Nurses' Organization and the plea of the big city hospital. We hope the time will come when a- gain;the smaller type of hospital will receive the encouragement it de- serves. ©O We couldsuggest a way the Hep- burn Government might save a bit of money for hapless citizens, although it would by this means cut off some government revenue.

NEWS IN BRIEF The new Provincial Government has announced that many of those serv- ing sentences for breach of the liq- our teem' will' • be 'released;-. More leniency will"be shown those guilty of technical infractions but Premier Hepburn declares that the law will be hard on bootleggers. Tuesday saw beer and wine sold legally and openly for the first time in Ontario in seventeen years. Hotel beverage rooms in cities and towns were said to do a rushing business in serving all those who wished to renew or to experience the taste of legally -sold beer. The body of John Dillinger, the Indiana outlaw who was shot by po- lice on coming out of a Chicago theatre, was taken back to his home in Mooresville where his father ar•e ranged to have hien buried. L'aw forces in London are disc - greed as to the legality of seizing the slot machines as was done the other day. Mayor Wenge has ordered the restoration of all legal type mach- ines which appeared to be taken with the rest, returned. '•ie* The weather has been elttreniely hob down in the Southern States, hotter than anything we can imagine here, probably. At Nashville, Tenn., it became so hot that wvoric on surgi- cal supplies, including clinical ther- mometers, had to be discontinued. Beeswax used in the work inched and could not be handled. Over seven hundred deaths are reported as are-. suit of the heat wave. ak 'Members of the "Hunger March- ers" are filtering into the several cities in readiness to converge upon Toronto and the parliament build- ings of July 31st. At Chatham they had a bit of an encounter with non - sympathizers. Hon. L. J. Simpson, Minister of Education, has announced that all teachers in Ontario who have taken second year Normal course will re- ceive $100. in compensation. This payment will run over four years in $25 yearly grants, at the close of the school year, and will be paid only to those who •actually engage in teach- ing. . Premier Bennett and Hon. Mr, Guth- rie have made a visit; to the Ports- mouth penitentiary to look into con ditiens, in view of the many reports of shocking practices. Another result of the heat is a re- port from Lima, Ohio, that many bees have been drowned in their hives when the heat melted the wax of the combes, releasing the honey which dripped down upon the bees, The Austrian Chancellor and his en- tire cabinet were made. prisoners by 'Austrian Nazis and the.
