N WILL PARLIAMENT
CLOSE ?
leading editorial the other day,
, `Mail and Empire made the bold
p'hecy that it would occasion no
:`;rai>47uazement if Lord Bessborough is
"ealled upon to perform the closing
+ erenwny of Parliament, about the
'middle of June.
Such a statement is, apparently,
case of the wish being father to the
thought on the part of The Mail afid
it might not be enlarging any, to say
on the part of the Government which
it supports, as well.
But, that there is any likelihood,
even possibility of its being fulfilled,
we would say there was not the
slightest. How could it be otherwise,
when the middle of May has already
been reached without the Budget be-
ing brought down?
The Budget usually is the main it-
em on the Parliamentary programme.
This session it will be just a little
more than that, because if election
promises are to be fulfilled, the duty
on practically every article entering
Canada is to be shot skyward. But,
until the Budget makes its actual ap-
pearance, no one will know the exact
height of theseduties nor their ex-
tent. Neither will the country know
what means will be taken to raise a
revenue to offset the loss caused by
the shutting out of imports.
The expectation is, and the Premier
is the authority, that the Budget will
not be brought down much, if any, be-
fore the first of June. Is it yeas-
^ onable to suppose that the members
of Parliament can digest and pass up-
on such a measure of outstanding im-
portance to the whole country, in
the space of two weeks and at the
same time do justice to themselves or,
which is more important, to their con-
stituents, whom they represent?
The Mail makes the further state-
ment that "the great bulk of the talk-
ing has been done by those who sic
to the Ieft of the Speaker." To any-
one who has followed the session by
means of either the newspapers or
Hansard, that statement is a self evi-
dent fact.
This situation has arisen, however,
riot becauuse the Conservative mem-
bers were not capable of expressing
themselves, nor because they did not
want to, but because Premier Ben-
nett refused to grant them permis-
sion,'and the embargo on speech in-
cluded his Cabinet Ministers as well
as his camp followers. Being an ex-
ecutive of big business, he neither in-
vites zee tolerates advice from sub=
ordinates. All he asks is their prox-
ies. Lacking their authority to vote,
he would be quite willing to dispense
with them altogether.
Unnecessary talk in Parliament is
an unnecessary waste of the people's
taxes, but unless business is to be
conducted by a rubber stamp, a cer-
tain amount of discussion is not only
desirable but necessary, in the inter-
ests of the taxpayers. If the Mail's
contention that the Opposition have
been wasting the people's money in
too much talk, is true; it is equally
true that the Conservative members,
as far as voicing the wishes or right,
of their constituents are concerned,
might just as well have stayed at
home and saved the people the ex-
pense of paying their parliamentary
salaries
But even if the Opposition should
become as tongue tied as the Govern-
ment members, it seems as if the
middle of June was just a bit early to
see the closing of Parliament.

the Sectional meeting to be held in
the church on Wednesday, May lath.
Mrs. Edgar Allen read an interesting
selection from the Glad Tidings, also
a very fine paper by Mrs. Hill cep Sab-
bath Observance, which was very fav-
orably accepted, as there is a tendency
at the present time and a lack to ful-
fill the observance of the Sabbath.just
tip to how it was kept in our grand-
mother's day. Mrs. Batten and 11•xirs.
Godbolt, of Winchelsea, were visitors
at the meeting. The meeting closed

CONSTANCE
The Golden Links Mission Band
held their monthly meeting on Satur-
day, May 16th, in the basement of
the church. The meeting opened with
the president, Doris Lawson, presid-
ing. After the call to worship and
hymn 426, Mrs. Ed. Britton led in
prayer and all repeated the Lord's
Prayer in unison. After the minutes
of the last meeting bad been read
and adopted, we had the roll call.
Having no business, the Scripture
lesson was read by Edith Britton and
Ethel Dexter. We then sang hymn
425, which was followed by a very
interesting reading, "Jack and the
Japs," read ,by Hazel Jamieson. A
reading entitled, "How the Skylark
Leet His Wings," was given by Mar-
ion Lawson, Readings from Heralds,
Edith Britton, Elia Dexter, Kathleen
Yungblut and Viola Dexter, respect-
ively, were also given. The leader,
Mrs. Ed. Britton, gave a discourse on
"The Religion of Japan." The pianist
was assisted in the hymns by two of
our members, Edith, Britton and Isa-
bel Jamieson, respectively. The meet-
ing closed with Hymn 446 and the
Band Prayer.
WON'T IT BE HANDY
Paris reports a device by which a
physician can introduce a photo-
graphic apparatus into a patient's
stomach and take eight pictures of
what ails him. This is the informa•
tion that has been passed along by
the San Francisco Chronicle.
Won't that be a handy machine?
Think of the pleasure it will afford
those people who are about to under-
go operations and those people who
have already undergone the same.
As it is now, the uncarved just
have to take the word of the elect
as to what and how serious was the
cause, before its removal, and the
, generaI public is too apt to take the
statements of operatees with a grain
of salt.
;Hereafter the sufferers—we mean
those who have recovered from the
sufferings of an .operation—not those
who still have to suffer through the
bearing of them—will have more
than,• just their say so, to back up
their'. tales, A whole lot more, an il-
lustrrrted lecture, as it were.

The Cemetery.—Here in this quiet
Tittle plot, the Hillsgreen cemetery,
lie in peace the pioneer forefathers
and mothers of our eountryside. This
cemetery, like many others, has re-
ceived scant care from us, the living
of the community. Two years ago,
tnoved by the sentiment and desire of
some of the folks who do care and
remember the dead, we began to clean
up the plot and make it more pres-
entable. Now we have the ground
well levelled, the headstones straight-
ened up, and the ground reseeded with
lawn grass. A new fence is needed,
so the committee of management de-
cided to build a new fence and have
four stone columns or cairns built fo;
gate posts and corner posts on the
roadside. Later we hope to build
stone posts at the two back corners
and have a suitable fence replace the
present barb wire one. To do this
work, funds are needed, so we request
all interested in this cemetery to con-
tribute as freely as they can. The
objective is worth while to beautify
the burial ground of those who have
crossed the great divide. The contri-
butions will be gratefully received by
our treasurer, John Gd'chrane, Sr., R.
R. No. 2, Hensall. I have the honor
to be, Yours truly, Joseph Forrest,
Secretary.

In making brief mention in last
week's issue of the death of Fred
Arnold, a merchant here many years
ago, and 'who, we believe, passed a-
way in one of the Buffalo hospitals,
m which city he was living at the
time, it just occurred to the writer
after mentioning the death that Mr.
Arnold was not only a merchant here,
but had filled very cerditably the posi-
tion of Reeve,' getting along very
nicely with the members of the coun-
cil and the ratepayers ingeneral and
some of the good improivements we
are now enjoying in the way of cem-
ent sidewalks, etc., were ably cham-
pioned by him. Apart from business
and municipal matters, he also found
time and pleasure in sports, and was
particularly fond, of fishing, and was
never afraid to make a bet just for
the fun of betting. This reminds us
of the story of a little newsboy, in
one of our cities, who had a passion
for betting, and' the little fellow, who
was quite a favorite for his bright
manner, meeting with an accident on
the crowded streets, from which it
was felt he could hardly survive, a
kind hearted citizen thought it would
be nice to have a minister call in and
see him, but in trying to engage his
attention to the better world above,
the minister found he had never had
his mind drawn to the fact of another
world, and in trying his best to awak-
en his thoughts to such, he said: "My
boy, would you not like to be an angel
and be employed in carrying messages
for God and His Christ?" The little
fellow then pressed the minister as
to what was really meant by being
an angel and being told that he would
as one, be flying, he at once turned
to the minister and said, "When you
die do you expect to go to heaven and
be an angel, flying as you speak of ?"
And the good pian replied, "Yes, my
little boy," when quick as a flash came
the ruling passion of betting, "I'll
bet you a dollar, Minister, that I will
beat you in flying."
The Sacrament of the Lord's Sup-
per will be observed in Carmel Pres-
byterian Church on the coming Sun-
