SIDELIGHTS • on the - BIG PARADE local festivities, hut was in time to wind up the speaking program. Hi evealed the startling fact that grants to the public schools in Ontario had lecreased during the past three years by 81,000,000. while those to the Sep- arate schools have been increased by =tr50,000. The average grant for the ; vear has been placed at $398.;36, while . The day was uiimarrcd by accident, that to the Separate schools was i the autoist evident bearing in mind $701.84. This referred to depart- 1 the requ'est of Reeve Macauley of mental grants. i Fleshert.n who. in his welcoming The following telegram from To- speech at th-? park, drew attention to ronto officers of the Canadian Prot- estant Federation was read by Mr. Miller: "Congratulate Orange Order on its stand, and yeoman service extended to the public schools.

On one ' drive, Mr. and Mrs. Doherty and Mr. Nakano were with the writer, and when the scenery Ijecanie a little dull. the driver was besieged by the three of us to invest in life insurance.

The Hon. 11. II. Stevens in hi-^ excellent speech on what he called "the plight of Youth" said that his su- prenn' concern was llie cause ol" tlio march of the camp boys rather than the riot, grave as that matter was. T hree years ago. he said, literally thousands of young men in Canada were wondering up and down the coun try. He had counted on a single train one morning, one iiundred and done by men employed on provincial load work at full pay. Mr. Stevens concluded his speech by suggesting an extensive public works prograir wit!; the men on wages and lespon- sible for their own keep. The wis- dom of his suggestion is apparent since keei'ing the men in camps costs almost forty dollars a month for each man. to say nothing of the cost of additional police force now being 1.1- ed. The Session just dossed was pra- iifi from a legislative point of view l)ui the heavy programme of legisla- tion <lid not live up to the forecasts made by the Prime Minister's radio â-  pceches. Nevertheless, such major )f legislation as minimum wages, hours of labour, unemployment insurance and housing were past. The Criminal Code was strengthened in regard to the ininishment of those who infringe the code of business ethics and finally the Grain Board bill was passed, giving the board for the first lime the right to set a minimum price for wheat, which seems the be- ginning of the recognition of the farmer's right to receive at least thsi- cost of jiroduction incluiling wage; for the farmer. By an order in- council this legislation can be extend- ed to their grains. House of Commons, July 6. l'.»:!5. .\gnes C.
