of reducing his production costs if he can saye a dollar if is just as good as the dollar he may arn accidents have laid a heavy hand on industry in ontario when we realize that compen sation for accidents in industry in this province u costing six million dollars each year the manufac turer must calculate on this cost with his other prob lems of manufacture and a reduction n these losses means just that much saved to the country acci dents reported to the workmens compensation board have averaged over five thousand each month forthe last several months this means roughly two hundred accidents every working day add does not benefit cither the industry nor the workers but is rather a heavy loss to both employer and employee an extension of the safety idea seems a logical and legitimate means of cutting productioo costs in this country there is honor in ifefrg a gd mechanic reference has frequently been made in these columns- id the benefit to young people rcsuittfig from the learning of a useful trade there are a hundred opportunities open to the young man who has served an apprenticeship and mastered a trade to one to the man who fails to do this and is spending his time as an ordinary laborer in recent years there seems to havo been a tendency on the part of the average community to ignore or at least to be un interested in the overall phase of life the result of this is that fewer boys have entered the skilled trades and at present there is o shortage of skilled workmen an antipathy to donning overalls seems to be the chief reason tbe trouble is chiefly in the homes as parents do not inspire ad vmbition in boys of mechanical inclination to learn a trade our system of education is also somewhat to blame as it places aji over emphasis on the professions as distinguished fronttho trades many a boy is doom ed to failure in a profession who might have become useful in the honorable field of mechanics to learn a trade and learn it well places a boy on the road to success he may havo to wear a pair of overalls but he can be just as comfortablo in that as wearing a pinched back coat and high collar there is just as great an opportunity to serve in the trades as in the professions the remuneration is equally as good and tbe standing in the community is just as high to the competent mechanic as to any other resident neighborhood nev8 town and

the political reasons for them were served and just about tho sajne thing appears to have hap pened here in ontario beyond an occasion flicker the incidents that were the talk or tho dominion for a week or two just a few months ago are never thought of today now that- tho legislature is no longer in session one is prone to form conclusions which do not strengthen his faith in party govern meat they seem to go after tho bootleggers in earnest in denmark recently it was found that former german war vessels were engaged in the illegal in dustry in a large scale smuggling boose into both denmark and norway so the danish and norwegian governments seeing customs duties on this sort of merchandise being reduced materially got together and began to hunt tho lawbreakers not with motor cars and slow revenuo cutters as our friends of the united states have been doing along the atlantic coast but with modern destroyers submarines and hydroplanes when the bootleggers see the govern ment is really in earnest in this fashion they will not long continue in their pursuit and now just when the people in great britain and europe are gotting over thinking of us as our lady of the snows as mr kiplings fatal gift of poesv peculiarly applied made them do for twenty years some chap who thought he bad a bright idea takes a lot of professional wild west entcrtainetv over as a feature of the

your rent have tried unsuccessfully to thrill most of us at ho canadian national exhibition are turned loose on londons streets and begin lassoing the bellboys in ono of tho big hotels so now in all probability tho typical canadian in the eyes or the average eng lishman jrfll be a bronchobuater in chaps that kind ofspectacular publicity sticks longer and hard er unfortunately than all the effects of government trains and lectures by welleducated representatives tbe ode redeeming teaturerpf the present incident is that there seems to have been no official cognizance of tbo wild west performers
