Over a ye o, there were those who
had grave forebodings that the l'rovance
would sutler severely at the hands of
farmers who were inexperienced in
"office work." People had become ac-
customed to the widespread belief t
lawyers aid professional men were
suited to occupy Cabinet positions.
Since then, results have satisfied many
that that belief was ill-founded. Yet
there are others s, ho still wonder how
these (turners manage their office von k.
However, a Minister cannot hide his
light under a bushel for long. There are
b select few, who act as judges, and sooner
or later give the verdict. There are civil

there is no one waiting in the outside

judges find one fault. He has not learned
the 'gentle art of "choking off" an elo-
quent speaker who has exceeded his al-
lotted time for presenting his case.

Hon. II. C. Nixon, the Provincial
Secretary, who is sarcastically referred to
by some of the Opposition as the "boy
statesman," also has a large number of
!deputations to attend to, but to his lot
falls more actual office work. Lake the

he enjoys himself. He is exceedingly eye-
tematic, and has never yet been caught
with an untidy desk.
It might be going too far to call the
Minister of Education, Mr. Grant, the
"dandy" of the Cabinet, yet in the soli-
tude of his office, or as he slowly paces
through the halls of the Parliament
buildings.lhat descriptive word naturally
presents itself_ lie never seems to be in
a hurry. There as not the bustle in his
office that is 1..und elsewhe.e. But lie
gets his work done. He might be compared
to an electric motor: silent, but efficient.
At the end of the day, he can always
retire to his room and indulge in quiet
reading with the knowledge that his
routine work is well in hand.
'Die Minister of Public Works, Hon.
F.C. Biggs, is the aggressive member of the
Cabinet, tie literally breezes into his

at home at (Alen as his colleagues. His
keen interest in the progress of good

Hon. Peter Smith, whom duties ail
Provincial Treasurer are perhaps a little
heavier than some others in Council,
leaves most of the details to those under
him. In spite of outside criticism levelled
at hini for his administration of the fin-
ances of the Province, he is judged by
these servants as a good man for the job.
He accepts plenty of advice -then turns
around and does as he tibtases. He holds
more conferences with various men and
groups of men than any other man in theCab,net. Cabtnet.
Mr. Doherty is the placid, easy-going
gentleman.who is capable of doing more
than his manner would lead one to be-
lieve. His forte is a well•directed initi-
ative, as evidenced in his two tripe to the

not be such a handicap as one would

Over a ye o, there were those who
had grave forebodings that the l'rovance
would sutler severely at the hands of
farmers who were inexperienced in
"office work." People had become ac-
customed to the widespread belief t
lawyers aid professional men were
suited to occupy Cabinet positions.
Since then, results have satisfied many
that that belief was ill-founded. Yet
there are others s, ho still wonder how
these (turners manage their office von k.
However, a Minister cannot hide his
light under a bushel for long. There are

there is no one waiting in the outside

the 'gentle art of "choking off" an elo-

Hon. II. C. Nixon, the Provincial
Secretary, who is sarcastically referred to
by some of the Opposition as the "boy
statesman," also has a large number of
!deputations to attend to, but to his lot
falls more actual office work. Lake the
Premter, themore work there is the better
he enjoys himself. He is exceedingly eye-
tematic, and has never yet been caught
with an untidy desk.
It might be going too far to call the
Minister of Education, Mr. Grant, the
"dandy" of the Cabinet, yet in the soli-
tude of his office, or as he slowly paces
through the halls of the Parliament
buildings.lhat descriptive word naturally
presents itself_ lie never seems to be in
a hurry. There as not the bustle in his
office that is 1..und elsewhe.e. But lie
gets his work done. He might be compared
to an electric motor: silent, but efficient.
At the end of the day, he can always
retire to his room and indulge in quiet
reading with the knowledge that his
routine work is well in hand.
'Die Minister of Public Works, Hon.
F.C. Biggs, is the aggressive member of the

Hon. Peter Smith, whom duties ail
Provincial Treasurer are perhaps a little
heavier than some others in Council,
leaves most of the details to those under
him. In spite of outside criticism levelled
at hini for his administration of the fin-
ances of the Province, he is judged by
these servants as a good man for the job.
He accepts plenty of advice -then turns
around and does as he tibtases. He holds
more conferences with various men and
groups of men than any other man in theCab,net. Cabtnet.
Mr. Doherty is the placid, easy-going
gentleman.who is capable of doing more
than his manner would lead one to be-
lieve. His forte is a well•directed initi-
ative, as evidenced in his two tripe to the
