The cry ftt daylight saving comes in eninety-nine times Out of a hundred „from the chap Who starts work shout nine a.m. and Who wants more time 'to ;play golf or go joy -riding ill the afternoon.

June 10t1r, coming on --Wednesday, that will be the date of the first publication of the new ',paper, which will be called "The New Outlook." The committee -having this matter hi liand asked for and received many suggestions for a name for the new paper and the above • was the one ehosen. Some criticism . is heard as to the choice, one being that it is hot distinctive enough. But -the committee, after due considera- tion,'decided upon this and, unless the United Church Council decides to change it, this is the name it will 'bear. Some contend, and it is signifs icant that it is not Methodists who take this stand, that The Christian Guardian would hare made an appro- priate name for the new paper, the name being undenorrithational The Guardian has -been the organ of the Church, however, and the 'idea is to doubt to get away from anything which would seem to give undue prominence to any one of the initing churches. The Guardian has been something more than a church Ottgall, however. It 'has been some- thing in the nature of a nation'al pa- per and there are few weekliee quoted mOre frequently. has been in existence for ninety-six years and. it is very dear to Methodists through- • out Canada, but there is something particularly find and sporting in the allant manner in which its publish- es are, plannin'es te lay it reverntly in its tomb, going on without a back- ward glance, td "The New Outlook." May the new publication have as hon., nunable. a record , and a much wider field or usefulngs. After -all 'it is a church's business to go forward. During the Session of the Ontario ST, PAUL'S. DRAMATIC SOC Legislature which ' eanie to. 'an end W111 ,Present tast wegice much legislation' was put through. The measure, most ei.s- CUSSea both in and outside the house was that of allowlmo the Sale of a stronger beer.Th,s measure did not meet With Ilir approval of a groat majority of temperance people throughout the country and is consid- ered a decided sten backward. The Governmem, however, maintains that it is really in the interests of temper- arice"eandl there seems nsthing to do but "wait a. id Ice." Sonic of the other amendments to the Act ought to help .strengthen it. The redisIribudon hill, passed in thelast hours of the session, has „ hoesu assailed by the opposition as very unfair.".,One afirge is that nine ridings giving prohibition majorities have'been cut out. This may be but in the tature of things could hardly be avoided, as all the ridings dropped were rural ridings and it WaS the rural ridings which gave "the prohibr-- tion majorities. As a matter of fact the,- rural districts ought -to have 'a larger, 'a very much large- represen- tatioir'than the cities: The number of nzembers has heen-increased bY one. A bill to charige the ,forination of sehool boards was introduee.1 and withdrawn, in order to get the mat- ter discussed throughout the eoun- try. It, is proposed to have the schools controlled by township boards - instead of having a board for each school section as at present. Prem- ier Ferguson wishes to.ascertain the mind of the people before Parliament meets again. There are no doubt many points in favor ofee6h method.
