He served in Flanders and France from 1915 to 1918 with the Northumberland Fusiliers, and has engaged in exploration work in Northern Quebec and Northern Alberta in the in- terests of various mining and oil companies. The Quest, which is now at St. Katherine's dock, will carry an Avro airplane for re- search work. Books Are Products of One Man Alone A despatch from Washington. D. C., say?: What are believed to be the only books ever produced from the contents to the printing and binding by one man working alone have just been placed on exhibition at the SmithsorJan Institution. They are the product of the late Dard Hunter, of Chillicothe, Ohio, who wrote two books, designed the type with which, they were to be printed, cast the type, set it, printed the production with a hand press and then did the binJin?. Hunter also manufactured the paper that was used. This is part of the general exhibition in the division of graphic arts in the institution. Educational Service. "Service" expressed the idea that came to one's mind on studying the University of Toronto's display at the Canadian National Exhibition. The information given in lacce blue letters on a white ground shovred that the provincial university had something to offer every seeker after higher ed- ucation no matter what his circum- stances. Liste<l there were twelve ex- tension courses already in operation. To the farmer, the industrial laborer, the housewife, the journalist, the teacher, the doctor, the municipal offi- cial, the university offers a course that is of practical and cultural value. But there was one item cf information, given in strikingly graphic fashion, that made the loyal Canadian pause and wonder whether the people of this country really value education as they should. Five heavy blue lines were used to compare the revenue of On- tario's provincial university with those of four universities of the same size just across the southern boundary. And the story told by these blue lines is that the University of Toronto is struggling along on about half the revenue that each of the others re- ceives. To do the immense work it is doing with the relatively small am- ount of money the provincial univer- sity has at its disposal is a real achievement in economical financing. Prohibition Adopted in Sweden A despatch from Christiania says: The Lcwer House of Parliament has adopted the prohibition bill which for- bids the importation of liquor? i.r wines containing more than 4 per cent, of alcohol. The bill now goes to the Upper House, where it is expeoteJ to be ap- prove.!. the Irish negotiations to a point where [the Irish must either accept the pro- posed conference or decide for war. It accepts the principle O f govern- I ment by the consent of the governed, ' ; on which de Valera insisted with one reservation: that there must be no separation from the British Empire, and invites the Irish to come to a con- ference at Inverness on September 20, at which the practical application of his principle to the Ang-lo-Irish rela- tions can be worked out. Any a<imis- ' sion of the right of secession, the Brit- ish Cabinet says, would be a denial of . the principle on which all democratic Governments of the world are based to-day, and would mean a return to tribalism. In the meantime the British are confident of a favorable answer, and are making arrangements for a con- ference at Inverness, where the Pro- vosts have agreed to place the Town Hall at the disposal of the conferees. Accommodation at the leading hotels has also been reserved, provisionally, i for Ministers, secretaries, typist?, etc., who will be required fcr a tirst-cias.* peace conference. The selection of. Inverness, the Capital of Gaelic Scotland, is regarded as a tribute to Irish psychology. A despatch from Lond'on says: Tl-.e, text of Mr. Lloyd George's letter, which was despatched to Dublin from Inverness. Scotland, on Wednesday. in answer to the latest note from Eamon de Valera, the Irish leader, follows: "His Majesty's Government have considered your letter of Aug. 30. and have to make the folio-wing observa- ' tions upon it: "The principle of government by consent of the governed is the founda- tion of the British constitutional de- velopment. but we canr.ot accept as a basis of a practical conference an in- terpretation uf that pr:r.c;:>le wl would commit us to any demands you might present, even to the extent of setting up a Republic and repudiating the Crown. "You must be aware that a conf.-r- ence on such a basis is impossible. So applied, the principle of government; by consent of the governed would undermine the fabric of every demo- cratic State and drive the civilized world back into tribalism. "On the other hand, we have invited you to discuss our proposals on their merits, in order that you may have no doubt as to the scope and sincerity of our intentions. "It would be open to you in such a conference to raise the subject of guarantees on any points in which you may consider Irish freedom prejudice! by these proposals. His Majesty's Government are loath to believe that you will -insist upon rejection of their proposals without examining them in a conference. "To decline to discuss a settlement which would bestow upon the Irish people the fullest freedom for national development within the Empire can oruy mean that you repudiate all alle- giance to the Crown and all member- ship in the British Commonwealth. "If we are to draw this inference from your letter, further discussions between us could serve no useful pur- pose and all conferences would be in vain. If. however, ive are mistaken in this inference, as we still hop, an<l if your real objection to our proposals is that they offer Ireland less than the liberty we have described, that objec- tion can be explored at a conference. "You will agree that this correspon- dence has lasted long enough. Hla Majesty's Government must therefore ask for a definite reply as to whether you are prepared to enter a confer- ence to ascertain how the association of Ireland with the community of na tions known as the British Empire) can best be reconciled with Iriah na>' . a - ns. "If. as I hope. > ur ar.s-.ver is in tl-.i- affirmative. I sug fesl that the con- :Y:-e- o shou.il r.-.tct at Inverness on '.he -Oth i:;.--uir.t." LORD ROBERT CECIL CRITICIZES ARMED LANDS IN LEAGUE MEETING Weekly Market Report Must be Registered Geneva, Sent. 8. The Council of the League of Nation?, the Unitej States, mandatory powers and countries that are ccntir.-inar to arm came in for trenchant criticism in the first day's debate in the Assembly of the League of Nations, on the work dene by the Council of the League. Hjalnier Brantir.g. of Sweden, ac- ' cused the Council and the secretariat of the League of partiality and ex- travagance. Loni Robert Cecil, repre- ' senting South Africa, defended both the Council and the Secretariat. Lord Robert was very severe, however, about the countries which, according! to statistics, are spending about 20 per cent, of their energies on arma- ments and at the same time complain- j ing of instability and a bad trade situation. Lord Robert's address seemingly! made a great impression cr. the mem-! bers of the Assembly. That a president of the United States cannot alone, under the consti- tution, bind his Government on a question of mandates is brought out! briefly in one of the paragraphs of : the last United States note on man-' dates, copies of which are circulating amcng the delegates of the Assembly of the League of Nations here. Thej note is dated August 8, and is addres-i sed to the French Government. The note makes various suggestions i of changes in the terms of the Turkis.i mandates, gcme of them being that | consular tribunals, under capitulations | from the powers, shall remain in force, until the Governments are organized under mandates, an! that if the man-j dates are surrendered, the consular tribunals shall be restored. Request is made in the note that the free-Jem given to religion al ; o s I-..; 11 be extended to eductr. charitable organization workers, not only those in the territories at pres- ent, but those who may go there in the future. Electioneering for the e'e-. en i . i of the International Court crtated i'y the League f Nations a'.rea.iy has be- gun and is developing cor. if-a'lf ardor. This is particularly true among the South American delega- tions, which, basing their claims on their numerical strength in the League, are asking for four judges. The four principal powers Grtat Britain, France. Italy and Japan are conceued one each by election fore-' caster*. Also it is generally conceded that one of them will come from the United States and one from Holland.. The difficulty of placing the other five! in order to satisfy all aspiration- - becoming apparent. League leaders aim to gi.e u'.l- roun'l satisfaction to the nations of the world, which raises the difficulty in their object of giving one seat to Scandinavia, one to the Slav countries, one to the British Dominions, and one to German-speaking countries. This leaves only one for South America. John Bassett Moore, who is now in the United States, is the most cften named as the United State* represen- tative. The method of election is now being studied ami probably will be public. The Assembly and Council, it is ur.>kr- stood, will hold elections consecutively,! after which the lists chosen by each: body will be compared, and a new e'e. 1 - ticn held for the seats not provi ied for by both bodies at the first e'.e:- tion.
