'SENATOR
IlanilQaD.GOIDODt WaS made on
'that Mrs. Norman Wilson, of
linnte had been appointed to the
dnon Senate.
Hon. rCairine Rhea W_ilson, to
ne her the new title which now be-
Iongs to her, is not only the first wo-
lannn to take a place in the Senate of
Canada, but she is the first to entel•
Mg 'upper house, on the North Ameri-
can continent or in the British Em-
pire.
Just haw:many of her sister wo-
men fortunate enough to be
able to follow lier lead, time alone
will tell. If the Canadian Senate is
what it * popularly supposed to be
in the minds of a great many people
in the country, viz: a haven of rest
for 'old and: broken down political
hack% it might be a good thing for
the 'Government to appoint a large
munber of -women to seats in that
august as'sem'bly to see if it would not
instill new life into the dying vitality
of that chamber.
Even if the experiment did not suc-
ceed in accomplishing all that it was
hoped it would do, it might be better
for the country to have all the po-
litically inclined office -seekers in the
feminine world appointed to the Sen-
ate rather than have them cluttering
up the House of Commons, where the
laws of the country are really enact-
ed.
But if the Senate is what it is sup-
posed to be, and in the minds of
many able Canadians is, viz: a body
of men ripe in political and business
experience; a chamber independent of
political influence and like our Can-
adian judiciary, composed! Of linen
who because Mtheir independence
are enabled to pass an unprejudiced
opinion on legislation presented to
them, then the appointment of a wo-
man to the Senate would appear in
the light of a jesture, a bone thrown
lo appeal to and appease the clamor
of the worses vote in the large cit -
J
ies.
However, Mrs. Wilson is now a
Senator, and if any woman is able to
lay claim to the necessary qualifica-
tions of a female as a Senator, she
certainly possesses a number of them..
She is a young woman still in her
thirties, the wife of a man of means,
wlio undoubtedly has the time to give
to her new duties, and she is the
neither of eight children.
We were going to add, too, that
she is a Presbyterian, but in these
piping times of religious peace, that
fact might prejudice her cause in the
minds of too many of our readers and
we would be very reluctant to put
any stones in the path which would
impede her career as a Senator.
thing for nothing.
That is why high pressure sales,.
men have been able to take much of
the surplus money and often the sav-
ings out of this county and others
during the past few years, and why
there is no money available for sound
farm mortgages and other invest-
ments that would increase the wealth
and population of the county.
If the sum total that has been lost
in get rich quick schemes, by the peo-
ple of Huron County in very recent
years, and the sums already invested
in such like schemes, which will,
eventually be lost, could be flashed
on a screen, broadcasted or publish-
ed, it would astound the people of
Ontario, not to mention the people of
this county. And the end is not yet.
It really is a thing that can be
regulated more successfully and perm-
anently by the people as individuals,
than by Governments, because as the
Peterborough Examiner very truly
points out, it should always be re-
membered that no law can effectually
protect the man who thinks it pos-
sible to get something for nothing.

SOMETHING FOR.
NOTHING .
The recent crashes in the stock
market and the wholesale investiga-
tions and arrests which have followed
these crashes are public property and
known to all.
But so great and widespread have
been the losses sustained by the peo-
ple through these stock crashes that
the Governments in every Province of
the Dominion are being petitioned to
pass legislation that will in future
protect the investor and punish the
brokers should even a slight similar-
ity to the present situation again
arise.
There is a possibility that the Pro-
vincial Government of Ontario and
those of other Provinces have been a
little remiss in the discharge of their
duties regarding the oversight of the
business methods employed by many
brokerage houses.
At the same time it should be re-
membered that no complaints of the
manner in 'which brokers conducted
business of their clients, nor of Gon-
ernment supervision was heard until
the crash came.
That, of course, is human nature.
As long as a man is making money,
real or paper, he is, as a rule, per-
fectly satisfied with conditions as they
are. It is only when the real as well
as the paper money suddenly vanishes
and in addition he is sold out of his
'business and very often his home.
that the same mart begins to suspect
that there is a nigger in the wood-
pile somewhere; that he has been
robbed, not through any fault of his
own, but by the sinful acts of brok-
ers and the carelessness or worse, of
Governmenta.
It never occults to a man that try-
ing to get something for nothing is
the real nigger. A man in a store, a
factory or an office knows that un -
leas he gives a day's work he will not
• receive a day's pay. A farmer knows
that unlesshe works to put in a crop
he 1L have, no harvest.

"0 fortun4te, 6 happy day
When a new household finds its place
Among the m,yriad homes of earth,
Like a new star just sprung to birth
And rolled on its harmonious way
Into the boundless realms of space.
So said the guests in speech and song
As in the chimney burning bright,
We hung the iron crane to-night
merry was the feast and, long."
