They come from all parts of the continent, GIVE THE CHILDREN A FAIR CHANCE Toronto.--It is accepted in all civilized countries that every child should be given a chance to develop the physical and mniental capacities with which he is born. Some chil- dren start out in life with a consider able handicap. If they are born in- to a poor family, food may be scarce or of questionable quality, the 'home may lack sanitary conveniences, there may he over-crowding, fack' of play space, and many other additional dis- advantages. The children born into a healthy home may be equally un- fortunate, because we often find in the homes of the well-to-do, children who are not living healthy lives. This is chiefly the fault of the, parents who spoil the child. The best thing which can happen to any child is to have parents who know something about child training. Love of children and a desire to do the most for them do not take the place 'of knowledge, We would not think of entrusting the operation of a machine, or the erection of a build- ing or a bridge to a man who was merely anxious to run the machine or to build something. We place such duties in the hands of a person who has been trained to do the par- ticular type of work. A Parents do not know by instinct the propér way in which to bring up a child. Some of them gain know- ledge from experience, and some of them are willing and anxious to learn from others. The up-bringing of a child is a serious and, sometimes, a difficult matter. If it is'to be done properly, it. requires training and preparation for the task. To the per- son who feels that our ancestors got along very well and reared families without .training, we can only say that the number of unhappy individ- uals, the number who have never ad- justed themselves to life, the imany who find life a burden, the group who arc a nuisance to others, to say nothing of the few who have real mental and physical health, are am- ple proof that the old system was not a success. Parent education is a real need; it is not a fad, but an evidence of the importance of proper preparation in order to ensure that all childen shall be given their chance. R.

Toronto, Aug. 20.--'"Whenever an election is called, rest assured there will be a reason." ! In these words, Hon. George S. Henry, minister of the department of highways, dealt with rumors of a provincial election, in a speech at Vaughan road collegiate instit- ute Saturday afternoon. "Rest further assured that the coming period in the government's reign will be one of expenditure, and not of retrenchment, for we must continue to develop with the call of the times." added Mr. Henry. "I think I am safe in say- ing that the present government has another fifteen to eighteen months to serve yet in the inter- ests of the province." Mr. Henry paid glowing tribute to the work the prime minister is doing in educational matters. "It is a line of development that the premier has been'follow- ing for years, with a realization that the standard of public school education must be raised'! said Mr. Henry, "I am satisfied that the genius of the prime minister will assure this development, not- withstanding the opposition lead- er's disparagement of his efforts." Mr. Henry was one | ¢ prin- cipal speakers at the fourth annual picnic of the South York Provin- cial Conservative association, which was held Saturday in the grounds of the Vaughan road collegiate in- stitute. Almost 1,000 local ad- lierents attended. \ Amongst the federal and provin- rial representatives introduced were Mr, Henry, Hon, Dr. Forbes Godfrey, minister of health and labor; Leopold 'Macaulay, M.P.P. for South York; Earl Lawson, M.P. for West York, Others present on the platform were J. R. Finlay, president of the West York associ- ation; Reeve E. G. Westbury of York township, and W. F.

Ferguson Government to Stay For Many Months, Says Henry The old age pensions, for 'instance --in this legislation we look for- ward with the satisfaction that we have provided some means for those who have served the coun- try that they may enjoy their wan- ing days." ; Dealing with the expenditures in the highways department, he ex- pressed the opinion that these had been justified by the increased traffic and the resultant 'revenue derived. "1 feel," he said, "that there is ample satisfaction in the general improvement that has been. at- tained jin our highway develop- ment, but if there :s one thing I regret it is the appalling loss of life and limb that occurs on our roads through carelessness. "We are living in a new age to the conditions of which we have not become adjusted," said Mr. Henry, *and while I contend that a driver must assume his respon- sibilities, as operating a machine capable of doing lamentable in- jury I am almost induced to lay some blame on the parents of our boys and girls in not teaching them their responsibilities. The major- ity of accidents are attributable to the practice of cutting in. Our traf- fic laws are reasonable, and clear- ly point out that a person on 'the right side of the road has the right of way.' rp Mr, Macaulay, in introducing Hon. Mr. Henry, paid a warm trib- ute to the work of Dr. Godfrey, made passing reference to the cause of the defeat of the late Baldwin government in the -Old Country as having been brought about by a "lack of proper. win- dow dressing." He declared that "this. province not only had the best window dresser, but with such men as those who formed the pres- ent cabinet, Hon. Howard Fergu- son had men who could and did deliver the goods." The Hon, Dr. Godfrey took up the closing trend of the Hom. Gi 8. Henry's reniarks declaring: "Wi ever the elections comes, and say, bring them on any old time you like, it will at least give our Liberal friends a chance to find a new leader!" ¥ Farmers in 'the province of Sas- katchewan' piirchase agricultural ma- chinery to the extent. of $50,000,000 annually. ; a LLOYDMINSTER I§ RAVAGED BY FIRE Million Dollar Damage From Blaze Which Started. in Poolroom WATER SUPPLY FAILS Lloydminster, Sask, Aug 20.-- Blackened 'walls and charred timbers are all that remained' last hight of the principal busine$s section of Lloydminster, which was fire swept with- the destruction of more than a score of buildings, and a loss of at [least $1,000,000.
