BENNETT HAS 4C:OMPLISHED e.„ nen. Mr. Bennett, Canada's new • Piinee Minister, has promised the peo- ple of this country that enemy blees- jugs are tee be showered upon them for their choece in selecting him as their general manager of the coun- try's business for the next four years. Towards. • that end he has had put through Parliament a grant of $20,000,000, which he has promised will practically eliminate unemploy- ment throughout the land. In the same good cause, at the emergency session of parliament, just closed, he had the tariff on some two hundred articles increased, to what, in many cases, amounts to a pro- hibitive tariff. These tariff measures he has prom- ised will make home industry hum, will provide work and put an end to .dull times. All this as a :starter. When the regular session of Parlia- ment meets early in the neiv year he has promised to enact a tariff that will be a tariff. These, of course, are only some of the things he has promised. Now fo: some of the things he has really ac- complished. During the month of September this year the retail merchants throughout the country were notified by the manufacturers of cotton goods that awing to the increase of duties imposed by the. Bennett Government. that a substantial increase in the wholesale price of these commodities must be looked for in the immediate future. During the same month the cloth- ing manufacturers circularized the re- tail dealers to the effect that owing to the large increase in duty on their raw materials, orders at present pric- es would be accepted only until the end of the month. On October lst there would be an advance in the price of clothing. These are only two things. We could mention more. The fernier who has to buy repairs on imported farm machinery will pay double the price he is paying now, in many cas- es he will pay more. When a duty is imposed on any- thing which goes into the make-up of any article manufactured or sold in this country, it means that the manufacturer is going to pass that • increase on to the retailer and it means that the retailer is going to Pass the same increase on to the person who -buys that article. It wouln be unreaeonapie to supPose anything else. Mr. Bennett's promises may raise great hopes in the breasts of the un- employed, the contractors and the manufacturers, but the things he has really accomplished during his short term of office, have certainly not les• seined the burdens of the consumer. And, with the present yrice of ma' ny farm products, with wheat at the lo -west selling point in over a quarter of a century and taxes what they are, the average family man in the towns and the people in the country have to shoulder about as much as they are capable of carrying now, without having these burdens added to. il4ii.fil60164.4114.10.41e.:04;44.1';ffeolgeee ter success this year again.

I lift him out of himself, make him forget his cares and troubles, lead him away from grief and sorrow and revivify his interest in life. Of all the privilege.s God has be- stowed on man I am the greatest. I make him the instrument through which He, the Omnipotent One, ex- presses power and beauty in a multi- tude of ways. Rich men and poor men alike who try to find substitutes for me, think- ing thereby to secure a larger mea- sure of happiness, peace and satis• faction than their fellow -man, are al- ways bitterly disappointed. Instead of gain, every substitute brings them infinite loss. As the Creator is greater than the creature, so I am greater than wealth, power, fame, learning, or any other acquired possession or quality of man, because I am the source through which he acquired them.
