and given the beat he had whoso life was an inspiration and whose memory is a benediction inspection of canadian banks the official inspection of canadian banks is a liyc topic in parliamentary and financial circles the chief inspector of national banks in the united states mr w j pole has lately been in ottawa tes tifying before theparliamentary committee on bank ing and commerce from what he says it would be impossible to evolve a system of bank inspection such as would prevent bank failures banks fail in the united states where the system of bank inspection is believed to be the last word in thoroughness last year no fewer than 77 of them closed their doors however from what many of us have seen each bank is a law unto itself there and capital is often small that is the branch system does not obtain there as here it is well known that canadian banks along fthe boundary line get much united states business the same topic was discussed at the canadian bank ers association convention last week what is in the interest of the banks said mr e c neill vice- president of the association and general manager of the royal bank he also said without hesitation he was in favor of government inspection of banks provided that this was done in a rcasonatfp way and by a competent official return to penny postage tho plea for a return to penny postage within the empire is redoubling in vigor and it is believed the time is most opportune now that the empire exhibi tion is in progress at wembley park- it is recalled that it is now 20 years since the imperial postal conference decided in favor of an imperial penny postage though that was not at once adopted by all the dominions on that occasion canada represent ed by sir william mulock led tho way in favor of the penny postage heartily supported by the late mr joseph chamberlain it is now urge that canada should lead tho way again although in this respect jt is forgotten that new zealand has already reverted to penny postago since the war however the ex ample of this country could hardly fail to have an effect all over ther empire as for ono thing it would almost certainly induce great britain to fall into line victoria colonist lik hie hydro adopts new rating system a revolutionary change in the rating system for domestic and commercial lighting throughout the various hydroelectric systems of the province was v announced last week by the hydro commission simplification of the rating methods has been under consideration by the officials of the commission for some months the result of these deliberations was a decision to abolish floorspace rating for all domes tic services and to provide instead thereof a ocent service charge in tho case of alt houses large or smajl connected withmunicipal distribution services in the various hydro zones a new basis for corn- pitting the- charge for current hw been arranged this new schedule when applied to acton appeared to work out to the disadvantage of consumers in the j smaller houses chairman a t brown of the hydro commission here had the secretary immediately communicate with the hydro commission of ontario pointing out this and referring to the fact that acton already has a large surplus over 3000 00 and the increase hero was unnecessary the hydro commis sion has advised that no higher nrtes be charged here and to use the old schedulo for the present this r watchful supervision on the part of the local com mission is commendible 1 the fall fairs admittance fee the question of the admission rates of the fall fairs is a real live one twentyfive cents admitted to the fajr grounds a quarter of a century ago when he cost of running fairs was a great deal less than it is today and when the special attractions were very limited indeed if fairs like those of ottawa and toronto leave the cost of admittance at low figure the smaller fairs can scarcely charge fifty cents the larger fairs however save themselves through the fact that gate money is but tho initial cost to patrons gojng into tho big fairs people pay fifty cents for a seat in tho grandstand and thoy usually find other things to pay for through which bo society or association receives direct benefit the average fall fair board is now finding that the receipts rarely equal the expenditures nowadays and feel that something must be done to increase the income sever neighboring fairs have adopted the 35 cent rata and find the general public quite prepared to accept this increase when it is clearly understood that the new rate is inevitable if tho standard of the fairs fs to be maintained an objection long urged against a higher admittance foe at fairs is that tho whole family desires to attend andthat this is practicable only at a 25c rate 6t against that objection is to be placed the fact that fairs come only once a vearnd also that children are all- admitted either free or at a low admission fee in some fairs vlike ac to

tho essence of an address delivered by sir robert falconer presi dent of the university of toronto at the presentation of diplomas arone of the colleges last week this is a changing age 1 could linger over many such changes some are very prone to say things are not as good as they were this is nothing but a sign of old ago and many become old before their time i thmk things today are better than they used to be what i wish to l with yon is th ynn fntr ring an age full of power and full of capacity there are great developments ahead of you and you ought to be full of hope and resolutions let mo urge upon you when you look at your diploma to bear in mind that it is a guarantee not only of your fitness but that it is a guaranteeofcertainmoral obligations and that you as a scientific man shall be honorable reli able and truthful as a professional man you have certain obligations as the community has put you where you are you are not merely to make money it is necessary to make a living but it is essential to serve the public the community needs not only good professional men but men who can think for themselves and are not afraid of expressing their thoughts we need a certain number in the com munity who will be leaders and have the courage to direct the people the graduates thus addressed may count themselves honored that such opportuni ties for usefulness have been pointed out to them by so wise and experienced a man as president falconer editorial notes it is encouraging to read that cities in the united states and even the state of new york are objecting to chicago stealing water from the great lakes to allow her to pour her sewage into tho mississippi and thus avoid the cost of a purification plant it now looks as if the canadian cities may get justice women voters in great britain will outnumber thojnen if a bill now before the house of commons becomes law women under thirty in that country do not possess th franchise but tho labor govern ment proposes to reduce tho feminine voting age limit to twentyone tho law there will now be the same in respect to women voters as it is here in canada referring to prohibition in tho united states bishop leete who has been visiting the hamilton conference at niagara falls during tho week said he had travelled extensively and during the past four years had seen only three drunken men there may be drunken men by virtue of the bootlegger but there are no saloons for the boys ind girls to see the people of united states will neer gwo up prohibition declared bishop leete with emphasis the town of cochrane has called neighboring municipalities to a conference to discuss the question of the exemption from taxation of the canadian national railway property the claim is mado that the line was constructed through a wilderness and tho towns were only brought into existence after wards that tho coat of constructing towns on the sites selected was very heavy that some have been burned due to forest fires and that tho railway should pay taxes on its property tho hudson bay route which has had the ap proval successively of all the political parries is atill an unsettled national utility
