usb the1b vote to advantage t after a long struggle the women of quebec have von the right to vote in the provincial elections and hold seats lfi the provincial legislatureif they can get them this mil sponsored by premier godbout was ratified by the legislative council and given royal assent by the lieutenantgovernor sir eugene fiset quebec women have had the vote in the federal elections since th latter part of the first greet war but not sjice 1834 have they been able to vote in the provincial elections women in all the other provinces got this right between 1916 1922 for twenty years women a organizations in quebec have been working forewoman siarrage thirteen previous buls-were- bronghbjnand rejected before they even reached the legislative council even now cardinal vuleneuve archbishop of qubec was strongly opposed to this legislation as was sir thomas chapals opposition leader the entry of the women of quebec into business industry and public affairs made it inevitable however that sooner or later they be given equal rights with their sisters in the rest of the dominion and they may now express their opinions on social legislation pensions child welfare ftt other matters that affect the home it is expected that the right to vote wiupace the way for other reforms lnthe legal status of women in this province madame casgraln miss idola st john and other leaders of the feminist movement are jubilant over the victory they have won which opens to them practically all posts of responsibility will the women of quebec use the power they have been given throughout the dominion as a whole women command almost as many votes as men to theory at least they coulo put into eflect any piece of legislation they wished if they were un ted one would expect wo men the socalled reformers would have done much to improve condl tions in modem times they know the deplorable effects unemployment and poverty have on the home bu actually women as a whole have been very indifferent to public questions they haven t used their vote to advantage very few especi ally in the east have been elected to parliament or even become can djdates for a seat is it because women ordinarily have not the vision or foresight of men are they not as able to visualize the future arc they more interested in smaller details close at hand than in ultimate aims if so something should be done to broaden their view point leng then their vision and show them the great possibilities for good the vote has given them 1 t t t war service how can we help refugee children one of the most difficult problems lacing the vorld today is that of refugees the end of the civil war hi spain resulted in a flood of refugees into france who treated them wi h great gener oslty many of them have now returned to their own country and the balance chiefly political refugees afraid to return are being gradually absorbed into the economic life or the country tha gae them asylum during the last five years owing to hitlers mad rice for power millions of defenceless peoples in germany austria czechoslovakia po land and now norway have been drrien from their homes in the most ruthless and barbaric manner their property has been stripped from them their foodstuffs bank accounts ana even clo lung have been confiscated many are conscripted lor forced labour camps where the degradation they are subjected to is unspeakable and hitlers avowed aim still is to remove every non aryan and every jew from all coun tries that he fan bring under nazi domination these persecuted and unfortunate people are facing a problem that is difficult to solve where can they go many fled from germany to austria only to be forced to seek another place of refuge when this country was- annexed there are 50 000 polish refugees interned in hun gary they are lucky for the time being as they are being kindly treat ed following the ending of he russian finnish ar another half mil lion peop e were uprooted and forced to find new homes it takes little imagination to read the tragic story of broken homes lost relatives human agony and desperation involved in this tremendous upheaval what can we in canada do to help solve this problem we cannot invite them all to come and live in our fair dominion wide though it be but surely we can do something for some of the thousands of refugee children without parents and without a country many of them are stranded in france england holland belgium swi zerland and scandina via but these countries in the war zone have urgent problems of their own and even the feeding of these children is an added worry canada and the united states are in the most favourable position to help these young refugees a movement is under way in the tjba to bring over 10 000 german children under 14 years of age in canada arrangements are being made by the canadian committee for refugees to bring over from england 100 german orphans from 3 13 years of age for legal adoption in homes where they will be guaranteed hospitality but a hundred is so few out of the thousands of bewildered friendless little orphans that need protection and an opportunity for development the red cross is doing a great human work in helping supply the needs of these peoples who have known destitution and hunger and re port that between 300 and 400 cases of clothing have been sent the finns and poles this month alone the canadian committee of the save the children fund with mr norman a mckenzle llm as chairman is doing an unselfish work in providing bedding clothing medicine and foodstuffs to help save refugee children as far as possible from the ravages of war many prominent canadians believe immigration barriers should be lowered so that a larger number of selected groups of refugees might enter canada they believe that these newcomers would not necessarily be competitors of existing industry that a large scale immigration of new ideas new processes new methods and capital from europe would aid expansion of canadian industry and broadening of our export mar kets and in the long run add to the growth and prosperity of our nation canadians who have so much themselves surely will not be indlm erent to the sad plight of such vast numbers of peoples t t t t book review tbe gather by taylor caldwell this is the powerful and dramatic story of a great american family 0 who inherited immense wealth and a world powerful munitions industry it is a tighuywoven emotion charged story of the in trigues of warring factions in the family played against a thrilling back ground of worldwide activities fomenting wars destroying democracy and creating fascism it is an absorbing novel peopled wth living colourful men and women whose ambitions passions and lust for power dominate their world you will probably enjoy this book more if you have read dynasty of death in which the author first created this powerful family dynasty of death is soon to appear as a motion picture production my reaction to the eagles oather is that surely not even the beads of a great armament industry could be so unscrupulous hi betray ing the common people and their

begin with we must deal wth our guilt in so far as possible we must undo the evil we have done we must stop doing the evil things and begin to do the corresponding positive good things deep down in our hearts there is a consciousness of god and when we surrender to god and obey conscience our sense of gods presence and lead lng becomes stronger it is possible to become so hardened in wrong
