In a speech before the postOn Chamber
of Cornmeree recently, Dr: Beland,
P., for Beauce, said: -"Belgium Sayed
France by her first few weeks of fighting,
France saved England, the British Navy
saved the United States, and although
the United States came in lite, it Bayed
the world," which perhaps is about as
neat a way of saying that they all - saved
each other as could be devised.

corn, pack your duds and be gone, we
don't want you, in the U. S. -A. .,The
liquor traffic, the great curse to humenity,
has got to beat it, and we hope it will, like
the Kaiser, be one away with for good.
A few years ago anyone who advocated
the temperance cause was called a "crank"
or "fanatic;" now the tables are turned.
Canada will do well to follow the example
of the States even though it has to quash
Qtiebec to do it.
