LOOKING FOR TROUBLE Tlite Boston Transcript says that tine times in ten you must go out of your way to find trouble. Yoe never ?OM a telephone pule in the middle of the highway. IYou never saw a fence a ditch, or a moving train in the middle of the Highway, either. Perhaps that is why motorists be- come dissatisfied with the hiehways and seek these things in other places, It is, of course, ridiculous ro ever visualize a highway populates: by any rof these things. But any ,lire who lives on a much travelled ►:i,.eway or spends a week end watching tee motor traffic on one, will see male more ridiculous and dangerous things right in the middle of that hii;hway. One will see a car that \.v• old not bring $50 on any market cone down the nridd'le of the highway at a speed that its own brakes could not stop in fifty yards. One will see a five ton :rued com clown the middle of the yiz,l way at any speed its driver chooses to take. and maintain that position and speed in defiance of either way trslie. One will see a coupe with three and four occupants and; a two seated ca^ with six and seven, come down the highway- at fifty miles an hour and more, and to judge by the melons of the motorists, no one is a't..elly in charge of either car. Why one will see every .day s dozen more dangerous things in the of the highway, than a telephony pole, And every one of these things is a human being looking for trouble. FOND OF NOISE A transcontinental excursion train in which two hundred per or., are to be housed for something icor than a month, is equipped with a hundred radio loud speakers serving state rooms, diner, club car air, all othe compartments. And, suggests the New York Sun guests who are so old-fashioned as t prefer a little silence, may ride wit the engineer. The guests on this train are no the only people who might be old fashioned enough to wish for a littl •peace and quietness in their dail lives, even at home. The manufacture of noise yes be- come so popular in this cc'untr•y- dur- ing the past few years, especially among the younger generation, that one sometimes wonders host long the human system will be able to stand up under it. Perhaps the radio is responsible fo a good deal of it. Radio owners seem to vie with each other as to which will have the clearest and plain.est loud speaker. and having secured what they think is the best, they naturally want to let the world know they pos seas it. The radio, of course, is one of the greatest of modern inventinrs. Es• pecially is this true in the c ,untr•y districts and in the Western Provinces and other sections of country wheel settlement is sparse and n,esrs ui communication few and far he•,'•.een Tn these the radio has br wght the world and the world's doir.y3 right in- to the homes. It has broken a silence that in the winter time, especially, must have at times been almost in- tolerable. And it has breegrit the world's markets along with the- world news, It has placed the world's best within the hearing of every family-, irrespective of means and locat-ion, All this and much more ie in the radio's favor. It presents a w•onrierful opportunity for education and for pleasure. That would be .veil if the radio stopped 'there or even if penplr would shut it off there. Unfortunately there are many things that come over the reale that possess neither an educational nor a real pleasure value. 'Jazz and just plain noise to mention but tw ,, and it is unfortunate that ton mr:ni neraple seem to prefer these two above all. others. In the early days of the radio, when ear phones only were in use. the radii offered no opposition to reading, to conversation or just plain thint.ing in the home. With the advent of the loud speaker all has been 'hanged. Conversation to be carried nr, or ev- en heard, must be conducted in a pitch one degree higher than that of the lorid speaker, and that is a feat. that is pretty hard to accomplish with the most of them. If the radio owner would pick and choose a number or a programme, hear it and let it go at that, it wouldn't be so bad. But mos't radio owners seem to think that it is the continual .blast of the loud speaker rather than a particular artist or Jtufliiber that counts, In winter only the immediate fam- iily eoneerried suffers from this com peat -hers orf noir, 'but in summer wirer the w3ltdd'ws and doers of the Ines .arid shops are open the' whole 'Street acid reeekveerld at; large le fore - 140q06 'ter a rlmiribination of the 3fi+ 411'iCetli . e~rl: the hamar' Mice that ie neither enlightening nor pleasant Perhaps it is. t '-s coxnpetitio•r with the loud speaker thOt is afectiug the tone of voice of the human race. The young no longer use a moderate tone in oonversation or in expressing them. selves. They yell in the house and out of it and at all times, and the older people are getting that way too. It is a pity because study, thinking and intelligent conversation ase three things greatly needed i;i present day life, but the opportunity of e'lgaging in any one of them is being smother- ed out by noise in the homes, FROM THE DOMINION CAPITAL Ottawa.—ln these days at the Can- adian national capital, little activity is displayed save that which is con- nected with the election and ntt much but departmental routine is being ac- complished. To the previously men- tioned list of senators two further ap- pointments have been made, .-Ion. J. H. King, minister of pensions and na- tional health, having been appointed to one vacancy in the British Colum- bia representation, and II hn, John Sinclair filling a similar vacancy in Prince Edward Island, Dr. King, while still carrying on as a cabinet minister, will shortly retire and the probabilities are that he will be suc- ceeded by Ira Mackenzie, a member of the British Columbia legislature and foremost in his pelty on the Pacific coast. All the senate vacan- cies are now filled and it has paid aspiring members of parliament who have been successful in landing them, to await with patience the reward of long service. The party leaders are now out on the stump and their respective plat - teems have been enunciated. As was indicated in this correspondence last week, the Liberal party relies upon its record. The premier's speech at Brantford was essentially an appeal to he returned to office on the record of a governmental career of fruitful achievement. Certainly, in the solu- tion of various problems. with which it has been confronted, and in its advanced legislation affecting the tariff and industry and the soldiers, and in the adjustment of Dominion and interprovincial disputes, the gov- ernment has a pretty strong claim for a renewal of the confidence which has been reposed in it. But the Conservatives are not lack - r ing in a platform. At the last elec- tion the tactics they pursued were largely that of attacking their oppon- ents. with many counts to :heir in- t, dictment, but, this time, evidently profiting from the criticism that they were not constructive, the party, through its leader, has enunciated a - formal platform or renderer] a series e of solemn pledges. In many respects the declarations are old but in a few instances they are new. Conservative adherence to the pol- icy of protection, with emphasis on the fact that it is to be protection all round for the farmer, as well as for the manufacturers, is nothing new. Similarly, there is a familiar ring to the declaration that tic. party stands for interimperial trade but on the basis of concession for cora cession, rather than the pie'art one- s sided arrangement which now pre- vails. Mr. Benn»tt announces himself a partisan of the Hudson Bay Rail- way, but it has already be• r. bailt by the present government, "o that the kudos can hardly be shared by any- body else. x�y The really new aspects of Lie Con- servative campaign are the definite pronouncement in favor of the St. Lawrence waterway, and a further undertaking to construct i rational highway for motor traffic across Can- ada, Mr. Bennett is evidently run- ning ahead of his party in parliament in espousing the St. Lawrence water- way. In the last few cessions the subject has been broached hy T. L. Church, member for one of the To- ronto seats. strongly urgirg the con- struction of this great seaway. but there has been comparative silence on the Conservative side, and it was nev- er so clearly displayed ai in the re- cent session. The presumption is .iustifiahle that the Conse'•-,ative lead - •'r note thinks that in Ontario it may he a popular proposal, and likely he anticipated a similar declaration by the prime minister, Mackonsie Kings and sought to beat him to it. A significant adherence aiscut the Conservative adherence to the St. Lawrence programme is 'hat it seems I to assure the construction of that waterway. What is not made clear is whether the Conservative idea is to have a waterway who/le in Can- adian territory or international, as recommended hy the join. heard of engineering experts. The latter is considered the only practicalde solu• tion. having regard to the fact that, in the international stretch of the St. Lawrence River. the channel actually crosses the international heundery 49 times. Canals wholly on the Canad- ian side would entail a much greater expense. Nevertheless, it was the Conserva- tive cnnvention at Winnipeg which evolved this particular idea c.f an all - Canadian route. although reason exists for the belief that. in doing so, they were conforming to tie view of a strong element of the part which really does not •want the waterway built at all. The present gh'vernment is well placed tqQ reply to this chal- lenge. so to speaks, because it has long been an advoeate of the St. Lawrence undertaking, and. upon its initiative solely, the scheme has been carried along through successive stages to the point of final negotiation for an in- ternational treaty. Seven or eight years ago the pres- ent government co-operated with the governmient of the United States in the arppointment of a joint board of engineers and also of a joint advisory committee, dealing respe:ti rely with the engineering and the economic features of the enterprise No engineering difficulties that could not readily be overcome were discovered. The economic feasibility of the enter- prise was based upon the fact that, huge though its cost will be, the revenue from the sale of power will edegtratel'y carry the fixed charges on the investment - Meanwhile, the question adrnitted'ly has been somewhat of a political foot- ball both here and at Washington, be- cause while there are provinces. in Canada and States in the Union which are strongly favorable to the scheme, there are also provinces and states in the respective territories which are either opposed or• apathetic to the project. The King government, howet er, is pretty well committed to the seaway. The great trouble' and expense to which it has gone, and the volumin- ous investigations which have been made have all been predicated upon the presumption that the waterway is to be built. 'Moreover, Caned r has built a large part of it already in the new Welland canal, and a pri 'ate com- pany at the other end is building the great Beauharnois canal which is to be free for navigation, so that prac- tically only the international stretch remains. Now, with the Conserva- tive leader coming out strongly in favor of the waterway, and the Lib- erals adopting the same position, at least by inference, the large work would seem to be assumed unless some obstacle develops over the question of the particular route, An all -Canadian waterway, would not only be more costly but adverse to the advice both of the engineering and advisory boards. The idea of the latter :s that as Canada is prepared to bear the whole share of the undertaking in Canadian waters, the United States, on its part, might very -veli look after the international stretch, which begins above Brockville are]. neds near Cornwall, Ontario. The proposed construction of a na- tional highway for motors noun's like a more pretentious enter prise than it really is. As a matter of _tact, there is already a series of provincial high- ways interlinked, save aroand the Great Lakes. There, the formation is solid rock and to build a highway would cost almost as much as a rail- way. One factor that enters into the sit- uation is that such a road would come into competition with the government, owned Canadian National System, as well as with the Canadian Pacific. While the national highway will ev- entually come, there is a widespread view that it is not particularly urgent at the present time considering that it already exists save for a few hundred' miles, to overcome which a detour through United States territory is not difficult or calculated to greatly pro- long a transcontinental motor jour- ney. Many other national undertak- ings are considered more urgent, but anything which promise work at the present time has an alluring, appeal to labor and to all those industries which benefit ifrom such enterprises.

One of our early and much respect- ed residents in the person of Mrs. Jane Henr•y,.celebrated her 80th birth- day on Sunday last and is remarkably smart and bright for one of such ad- vanced age, and bids fair to celebrate many more anniversaries, and which her friends hope will be the case. She received many useful and nice gifts, besides a wonderful display of flowers also many congratulations. She was quite pleasantly surprised by so many remembering her birthday :tnd some from quite a distance, namely: Mr. and Mrs. Alex. Henry and family, of Cass City. Mich.; James Henry, of Aneroid, Sask.; also Mr. and Mrs. John G. Scott and daughters, of Crom- arty. We believe that Dr. A, Moir irtends making some improvements and changes in the interior of his office on King Street. Mr. Howard Lemon, who recently had an operation performed at Sea - forth Hospital, is home again, and is feeling much improved in health. Motor Accident.—On Saturday af- ternoon last a very unfortunaee acci- dent befel two of our villagers, in the persons of Dr. J. A. McTaggart and John Carmichael. It appears that they were on their way home from an auto trip and when between Seaforth and the neighborhood of what has been known in past years as the Red Tavern, and when in attempting to pass a truck coning the carne direc- tion, in some manner collided with it, with the result that the fine car own- ed by Mr. Carmichael was badly wrecked, Dr. McTaggart being pinned n the car and Mr. Carmichael thrown out of it at some distance near to a fence. It just fortunately happened, we understand, that Dr. Burrows, of Seaforth, in company with a trained urse, was on the way also to Hen= all, and were very soon at t;,e spot, where the most serious accident oc- urred, and rendered first aid. The njured men were taken in the truck o Seaforth Hospital, while the doctor nd nurse hurried back to inake ar- angements for them. Just how the ccident occurred cannot at date of writing be obtained, as so seriously ere both of the occupants of the car njured, as we believe they have been nconscious since the accident hap- pened, so that no complete report at ate of writing this has been obtain - d.
