This seems to be a matter of in= alivitlual taste, The Globe. editorials ►sIL 1atelyr have struck The News -Record as being particularlyi sensible and patriotic. Anybody with a sense of'humor ,aud .a fairly good memory must often „be amused on reading the flattering ed- itorial references to the actions of. the United State's since their entry 'into the wax and comparing them with the sarcastic scoldings` which were constantly being handed out previous to that event. This is par- ' tiel(ax1y true ue with regard.ari. to Press- -dent Wilson. . Wonder if lie ever saw any of triose sarcastic editorials and 'if he sees the flattering ones in which :most or the newspapers indulge now and, if they help amuse bim a bit in 'times of relaxation. They certainly would, amuse him -ie he saw them,. Most people can be easilyt moved to indignation by stories or graft, prof- iteering, etc,. 'There is no particular need" of proof, all that is needed is tor someone to start a story `ot graft or profiteering against a d-ompany or a man, and there is a general shout I'. of indignation. Graft, of which we have had a " good 'deal, and. profiteering, of which • -there has probably also been much, are not to be defended and we have rid intention of offering one word in. their defence. But before waxing.too eloquent over=such wrongs it would '.be well for everybody to make sure that their own skirts are clear. { The man who charges an. exorbi- tant price for anything he (las to sell just because the demand is great is a profiteer, no matter whether the excess profit amounts to seventy-five cents or to seventy-five dollars or ten times that much. The amount ,of money involved has nothing to do with the principle of the thing. Every commodity going, to 'make up the necessaries of life has• gone up in price during the past few years and especially during the past year or two. In many cases i t is easy to • see How this comps about. The nec- essaries cannot bo' produced at the •same price they could be a few years ago.

Exemption Boards have been chosen in such" a way as to make them absolutely independent and removed from all influence. There are over 1,250 boards throughout the country, each composed of two men, one appointed by the county judge fn the district concerned and one selected by a joint committee of Parliament. Being familiar with local conditions where they sit, the members are well -fitted to appreciate Such reasons for exemption as are put before them by men called up. Exemption will be granted to those who can establish that it is in the national interest that they remain in civilian life, This is for the Exemption Board to decide after having received full information in,each case. The grounds on which exemption may be claimed (which are similar to the grounds recognized in Great Britelle and the United States) are as follows: - PO That ft la expedient In the national interest that the man should, instead of being employed in Military Servtee,be engaged in other work in which he is habitually engaged. (0) That it ie expedient in the national interest that the man should, inntead of being employed' in Military Service, be engaged in other work in which he wishes to be engaged and for which he hes special qualifications. (a) to bei It or trained for any work for which he is then being educated and trained9 Service, he should continue (5) - That serious hardship would ensue if the man were placed on active service, owing to his exceptional financial or business obligations or domestla position. 411 Ifbhoalth or infirmity, (f) Mahe consolont(ously objects to the undertaking of combatant lorries. and is prohibited from tieing so by tenets and articles etfailN in effect on the sixth day of July 1917, of any organised religious denomittatron existing and well recognized in Canada M such date, and to which lie in good faith belongs. (g) That he should be exempt because disfranchised under the War Time Election Act. No Claim for Exemption should be put forward unless ono or other of these grounds in fact exists, and no loyal citizen should assist in, or allow himself to be made a party) to, any Claim for Exemption unless thoroughly satisfied that it is made in good faith. Exemption may he applied for by the men selected themselves or by their parents,,neat relatives et employers. Appiicatiion for exemption must be made on printed forms to be found at every post office, 'Which arc to bo filled in and left with the postmaster if exemption is desired, The postmaster will forward the form to a Registrar, who will send it to the approprlita Exemptiou Board, In duo time, then, the Applicant will get notice as to when he must present hid case before the Board. 1 iLuta by The Mllllaty Servkc Cotfticlli { 0.4.141 .STRAYSSD,-n-F ii; O A'1 P 1.11, premises Of the untlersiglred,- about the' last,"01 ,Sept., a `, slrxlnd'. call, heifer, black with white (nee; lis. felanatibf1 regarding` same :Will be • gratefully, .received bit J , T. °'1v1 o Knight, BruCflAuld i 17 1 itB- on • 107, , --412 BARRED, ROCKS FOR -SAr.Jl',-A number of ben -hatched toccote1s at two dollars uaejl, from selected -heavy fell awl winter IAYe is mated with, Guild Strain vtlekorol.
