Being F work, and forced to do, your best, will breed in you temperance, self-control, diligence, strength of will, content, and a hundred virtues which,the idle never know.—Kingsley. Tf your nose is close to the grindstone rough., And you hold it, down there long enough. In time, you willsay there is no such thing As brooks that babble and birds that sing. These three will all your life compose, ,Just you, --and the grindstone, and your old nose Missouri Wesleyan Criterion. No, I'm not crazy' or: anything, be- cause I seem to be mixing up senti- ments at the torp 'of this column in such an illogical faghion.' As a mat- ter of fact I am in full agreement with Kingsley in his laudation of the beneficial results of work. To have some work to do and to be able t perform it adds snore to the sum tots of human happiness and well-being than any of us can compute.` Bu` like all good things, some people may have too much of it. And, just as the whimsical_rhymster puts it, when that happens the sphere of the worker is confined, his view is narrowed and he isl rendered unfit to judge of values. Nothing remains to him but. "him- self, the grindstone and his• poor, ,ov- erworked nose." Nine times out. of ten this happens to be a woman, for women, being so indespensible in the home, 'cannot leave it for a little outing and change as readily, as men can. A. man may find change and relaxation in meet- ingmen in the order, of transacting' business, in the exchange of work or in buying or selling their •produce.'

Haig of . the editorial staff of the Manitoba Free Press, on, their success in winning prizes given by the' Canadian Red Crossfor editor- ials writteh to celebrate the centerary of Henri Dunant and the develops - merit of. the Red Cross. Miss Clen- dennan won the first prize for week- lies and Miss. Haig came third in the daily section. Sixty-five papers en- tered the contest. On thedayfollowing the passage of the bill, in the BJritish House of Commons granting the franchise to all women of the full age of twenty- one years Mrs. Emmeline Parkhurst, the most famous advocate of votes for women, passed away. Her worb:Pant. done, she had seen the reward of heir Tabours and she passed on, leaving to others the task of using for the bet- terment of, humanity the privilege for which she fought and suffered. ,..Mrs. Pankhurst's methods in the early part of the campaign for fe- male franchise 'were ,no doubt rather crude. But it must be remembered that ie. the days before the war it Was difficult to attract the attention of those in authority without doing something out of the ordinary. "Wo- men had no advocates in parliament; they had no way of bringing their cause before 'parliament, except in the way,they did do it. It will be re- membered, too, that when the war tame' 141yrs:`--'Pankhurst 'gave herself heart and soul to the serving of her country and that when women were. given a measure of freedom as citi- zens she became, what she no doubt was before, a quiet, law-abiding wo- man; a•woman of great charm; as many who knew her during her rest. dence in Toronto, will testify. The women of England, and perhaps Can- ada, too, owe much to this pioneer in the field of "women's rights."

Summer Care 'are' of Roses Until the "nst of Tiny new and es tablished roses can be helped along by surface applications of quick -act ing fertilizers, such as nitrate of soda. Use a scant tablespoonful of this fer- tilizer, and dig it lightly around but riot touching the plant. :One or two applications a fortnight apart are sufficient, After July, according to A. H. Tomlinson, O.A C.,Guelph slow- er acting fertilizer should be given. Weak liquid manure in this connection is valuable. To be safe deep forking •after"the roses become settled should cease, but shallow cultivation is ad- visable. A few low growing plants such as pansies and calendulas, grcw- .ing about the roots, after the bed is established is an advantage. .RIi'BEKAli ONTARIO MAKES RAPID STRIDES' AS POPULAR SUMMER PLAYGROUND A ready answer to the question "Where shall we go for our holidays" is found today among the Many'at- traetive`and pleasurable restorts that have made Ontario's highlands and lake districts the mecca of vacation-. ists from all across the continent, Frons the blue waters of Huron to the rock spattered streams of the Ottawa Valley, picturesque lakes, and sparkling rivers vie with each other as popular resorts. For the ardent fisherman the Ka- wartha Takes, the Thirty Thousand „Islands of. Georgian Bay, the Nagano- tawan, Pickerel and french river dis- tricts and inland lakes of Algonquin Park offer the best of bass, maskin- onge and trout fishing. For some a holiday is not complete without a canoe trip. For these, Tim- agami, the Rideau Lakes and the up- per streams and lakes of Algonquin Park offer a thousand delightful can- oe trips with open-air cam'iing and cooking thrown in for •extra measure. For general holidays . such resorts as Muskoka Lakes, Lake of Bays, Georgian Bay, Kawartha Lakes; and Lakes, Couchiching and Simcee are recommended. Any Canadian National Railways Agent will gladly give you literature and full information on all of Ont- ario's summer resorts and assist you in planning your holiday. 67-1. Here are a few gardening hints written by an expert, which omay be of use,t5 the kmateur 'gardener who is trying to bea tify the spot of earth over which she is happy enough to reign. Many plants are now being set out and some of, the following will still be early enough: A Few Annuals Worth Trying There should always be space in the amateur's garden for a few new flow- ers of more than average merit. In this 'connection the calliopsis can be recommended. This is a half-hardy annual producing brightly colored yel- low flowers with dark brown centres, on long stems. They are good bloom- ers, do well under ordinary conditions and are particularly fine as cut flow. ers. The scabious is another worth trying. It will 'furnish very sweet scented bloom 'from late summer on. It grows to a height ofaround two feet, Lind, therefore, requires plenty of room, in good soil and an open pos- ition. Calendulas, or pot marigolds,: can still be set. These giant yellow and orange" flowers are excellent for cutting' as they will last a long while indoors, With the S'weet Peas As soon as the sweet pea plants are up an inch or stn keep the hoe going. Constant cultivation is the price of a good showing of sweet peas.. Do not let them lack for• water, but 210 not sprinkle them., Give them a real soak- ing, and then don't water them for several days. A little good fertilizer sprinkled along the row, just before the buds begin to swell', and well wa- teretLin, will help the plants a great deal, .and -will add to the depth of the color of the flowers, Shade Loving Flowers Brightening up the shady corners of the flower••garden is usually quite a• problem, although many annuals actually prefer to be away from the sun` part of the time. Of course, it. is almost impossible to .get anything to grow in a spot which is without sunshine during. the whole, of the day, except, perhaps, ferns; .but the .folj For Stiff Joists • LIK3 AN ARABIAN NIGHT'S: ADVENTURE Have you ever wished to see with our oWn ` e eede n caderned Y ti e valleys, Y, snow lopped mountable,. rugged path- ways that lend adventurous souls from the heart of forest lands up" to rocky, misty heights?': All this is part of the magnificent Panorama of mountain, glacier and racing stream that you' can see and enjoy as you travel through, to the Pacific .

"The competition provided by chain. stores and installment houses, by mail order concerns, and by establishments in other towns easy of access when roads and; automobiles are numerous. menaces the existence of the small town retail merchants and, therefore; the 88ontinuance of good small com- munities. If our cities and towns are to continue prosperous, the people will have to support their home merchants. However, these merchants must not depend upon local pride and patriot- ism. -They will have to meet the new conditions and convince their cus- tomers that they' are able to give as good value for as fair a price as any of the outside combinations, They eau do so. There is some talk about the chain store putting the local merchants out of business. This is a false bogey.
