"Mostt. British" Cities
Edmonton Journal (Ind. Cons,):
(The mayors of Toronto and Kings-
ton recently engaged in a violent dis-
cussion concerning the justice of
either city's claim to be called the
"most British" In Canada.) After all
is said and done, as long as Canada
is British, every city in the Dominion
is equally British. One place may
have more. 01 the "]7hgliah" atmos-
phere about it, another more 0f the
air of oneof the United States cities. ig
But as time goes on and Canada de- .m
veiops In "greater degree its own su
characteristics out of the elements of
other ;aces that have mingled in the
Canadian,and out of the very soil
and, atmosphere of this country itself,
cities will grow more Canadian and
less anything else.

The game is played on carefully se1-

A golf course has eighteen holes,
seventeen of which are unnecessary

of a "green". A "green" is a small

Labour and Socialism
Glasgow Herald (Cons.); The new

not seem to have anything' in com-
mon with the Proteettouist policy of

In most matters, indeed, It might

tries cannot be paralleled. Yet the
faotr that in the Iater stages of the
Australian Labor Governments—one
of which was 14 'years, in oiilce—
State Socialism was at a complete dis-
count is worthy of remembrance.
