luwulm i oil i editorial dry clean ontario is a suggested slogan for the present kcrercndum campaign and it seems qum timely at that tho responsibility foi tho rum running that has prevailed along the border lino is placed whore it belongs by the annual report of tho provincial lt cense board just issued namely upontbe p to import intoxicating liquor into ontario the selling prices of iron and steel have begun to decrease raw materials are gradually declining wages are lower in many lines of manufacture prices to the consumer are approaching nearer to the nor rnal and there is a growing confidence in the coun trys future wage reductions affecting thousands of men are planned by nearly all tho railways the new york central railroad has announced that beginning on april 6 it will revise downward tho wages of approxi mately 43 000 employees a high official of another road in making h similar announcement says wages must come down ovcrbody knows that truly no man can live to himself atone u is rather interesting as well as surprising to hear president beattio of the c p r say that the mcadoo administration ofrjhc railways or the united states during the two years of their war experience has re flected on us here in canada by forcing a raise in wages in our railways to tho tune of quite a number of millions yearly for five years previous to tho adoption of pro hibition in ontario the average arrests formhunkort- nesfl in toronto ran over 13 000 during tho war period before the special clause permitting importa tion was given effect this dropped to less than 4000 yearly for 1020 even with the importation system working to the utmost the arrests were just over 0000 a pretty direct prooj that prohibition does benefit it daylight saving problem the vexed question of daylight saving bobs up week after week with increasing persistence that it will never become generally popular varyipg opinions es to its utility have long since manifested daylight saving i oqe oj those questions on which the town and city dwellers and tho fanner inevitably disagree lt is very clear that tho farmer who has to work in the summer anyway after all the auction sales are over- does not want to begin an hour earlier than he is used to it is equally clear that the town and city folk who have no more and often less to do in summer than in winter like tho extra hour of daylight leisure at the end of the day the farmers of the united states were influential enough how ever to defeat the reenactment qf national daylight saving law in hat country and have also prevented most of the states from continuing the agreement in the united states the eastern railroads have started their fight to cut wages in earnest from the war time basis and evidences are not lacking of a like movement in canada if we are ever to revert to prewar methods jind keep factories and utilities run ning at full speed there mjist be a reduction of the wages paid pembroke standard with lower wages the cost of living would bo reduced to an even greater ratio and the workmen would be assured steady work and more money to tho good after all jtjsbemg whispered about that the passing of the referendum would make it impossible for in valids to secure liquor for medicinal purposes this is absolutely absurd liquor can be obtained from government dispensaries after an affirmative vote in the same way as it is now the sapping 6f importa tiona will snmply restore conditions as they- existed during the first two years of prohibition in ontario j when practically all our citizens were surprised by and delighted with the benefits derived front the law jjgj a daily newspaper item says so upset are the school boards of morrisburg at tho frequenting of pool rooms by pupils of the schools that ajommitree composed of tho chairman 6f the public school board and the chairman of the collegiate institute board will wau on the town council asking that a bylaw be passed authorizing the cancellation of pool room licenses if pupils are allowed to -enter- the rooms other school boards in other ontario towns have felt that similar action would be found imperative unless school pupils were prohibited from frequenting the pool rooms getting close to the problem w that boston mayorwho spent the night incognito at one of the citys refuge stations to see how the cutof works were being treated has the right idea there would be less theorizing antltt good deal wore practical effort if other officials would take similar courses instead of trying to run such matters from behind polished desks in municipal buildings lt ia said that this mayor slept fairly well but was routed out at aye oclock to saw wood rind earn his breakfast of oatmeal bread and coffee also that w when he went- to tho city hall in his old clothes with tho atuhbte of two days beard he contd scarcely got paat the office boy into bis own office they seem to 4o these things better in boston than in toronto where some of those who present themselves for free meals and get them have more money in their pockets than the officers presiding and where these same men are arrested a little later for spegtllng in motors and on motorcycles fv cot out the favors- to the rich man did you ever stop to think how unfair tho present clnusq permitting tho import of liquor for private purposes is with llqubr at the prevailing price and that price most of us cat scarcely help knowing somolhinft about since wo hve been bombarded with circulars and price lits for the past year and a half tho man in poor or average circumstances can t begin to afford to bring in tho case or so ho must buy tp ensure del ivory on the other hand tho wealthy mnu js under no such disadvantage when the referendum vote allows tho o t a to coma into operation as we had it for two years and besides allows the sandy act to prevent shortcircuiting to come inlo force both classes will be on a fair and equal basis surely thitfss a point which will appeal to tho labor man and working men generally a doing government that was rather naive comment of mr howard ferguson in the j louse the other day and one which had more or less of the boomerang characteristic when ho complained that two or three men did the only tatktng that was done on tho government side of the house mr ferguson is quite correct the dr g sc beadoipg rather thair talkingmachlne while the leaden of the liberal and conservative groups have deserved all that some of our contemporaries have said about them for their tactics of senseless criticism and herring drawing sensible criticism has a useful place in government nagging has not and neither of the would bein power party leaders have gained either strength or prestige by their conduct in the local house this session improve the home surroundings neatly painted homes and tidily kept surround ings invariably attract public attention and win admiration sadly in need of paint is the verdict of the average tourist in an automobile trip as he passes through town streets and along country roads and views the unpainted houses and outbuildings so prevalent in many sections of the country before tho war spring painting was generally considered by the average citizen of town and country but most of us neglected this well formed habit for more urgent business and because of high prices of paint and labor which prevailed now that prices are gradually approaching the normal level it will- be well for all who can to obliterate as far as possible the results of tho years of neglect a house or other budding that is bare of pigment and dry of oil la always goingbackward by reason of the assaults of the weather the cost of building remains high preserve the one you have as far as possible advanced opportunities for dental surgery one of the greatest advances in more than half a century in practical education in tho province of ontario comes with the announcement that the royal college of dental surgeona of ontario has now completed arrangements for ri post graduate course of studies to commence in a fewveeks thisvmove- ment it is felt in educational circles is one of the biggest things of a practical educational nature thai has been undertaken in years and means much more to the people of canada than can be estimated formerly the dental graduate- was thrown largely upon bis own resources as regards keeping abreast of the times and making himself modernly efficient and the resources at the disposal of the- ordinary practitioner w usually not such as to permit of intensive study or elaborate research of late years the ontario dental association has done splendid work in bringing the best brains of tho profession to the annual conventions and in presenting in visual fo the latest methods ofpractice n com the official announcementifomtne college that still greater facilities will shortly be placed at the disposal of the graduate dentist and that intensive laboratory and lecture courses will be available for all dental surgeons conynencing early this fall two olabseb op milk keen ktnud reporter ere busy nlajhl and day la every ally and town of this treat country hunt in out
