papers say the editors corner a terrible week a week of reverses ending in the capitulation of france to the german hordes leaves little heart in a person for writing of the little doings of our neighbor hood it has been suggested to me at different times that i digest the weekly war news and comment on cer tain phases of the struggle in europe three things have decided me against this first of all i do not feel qualified to venture opinions which will be read by manyjiundreds of people irtjjms district sucft opinions would of necessity be purely personal ai a weekly editor has not those sources of information at his disposal upon which radio and daily newspaper correspondents rely then again this paper is set up a full day before it goes to press and with events rapidly changing such news is outdated before it gets to the reading public in the third place there is a demand for news of the district weddings funerala social gatherings which though trivial yi comparison with national af fairs i st 11 of importance to this community with the radio and the dailies carrying uptothe minute war news a weekly editor has little to contribute in that field so the herald shall continue to give you pnrmri ly new of this district because that is i be iee th field of a weekly newspaper theres something about a garden party it s a good many years since i e been at a gar den party and it was a real treat to go out to siwercreek on monday and enjoy the limehouse presbyterian church outing an excellent program a refreshment booth and a perfect june night all combined to make one little

parliament of canada will enact legislation to begin a system of unem plojmeit insurance that parliament will view such legislation favorably is a foregone conclusion although it was a meruit of this kind in the bennett ciivs which the pilvy council condem ncd because the new bill will be spon orgd by the government of the day with il huge- majority it is a beautiful theory this plan nnt thing so that when a workman a ununployed he will continue to draw i p oportion even a large proportion of the wages he draws when tie is working bu because alluring theories do not always work in practice t

threat to consumers who have caused all the unemployment or employable people by their refusal or inability to pay the prices demanded mr goods produced by industries which are subjected to existing taxes direct or indirect ex is ting wages which are excessive in relation to the prices of primary products and existing costs of other desorlptii ns which areuncontrollable because they have been foisted on in dustry by governments with the high puipose of improving the lot of the workfng man according to these academic souls the working man la injured rather than aided by all government efforts to help lilm if those government ef forts add to the cost of doing business they injure the farmer likewise for it is the farmers inability to buy pro ducts of industry which cause unem
