Coucbh, Joihnston & Cryderman in this town, why is there so much crime in Canada? Toronto "The Good" bas become a hot bed of it if we may judge £romn reports in the city newspapers of the proceedings of the different courts of justice. The citizens are flot safe on the streets nor in their homes day nor night it would appear, for day- ligbt holdups and robbery of business sbops have been quite frequent. A cause, or causes there mu.st be and the city authorities seem to be puz- zled to know what to do to stop the constant repetition of crimes. The moral conditions in the Unit- ed States are as bad or worse than they are in Canada. We have been reading in The Ohristian Work of New York for March 13 Part One of a very interesting discussion on "The Source of Crime" by Leon F. Whit- ney, the Field Secretary of the Eugenics Committee of the United States-an official of wide ecper- lence who bas been intimately as- sociated with Judge Oison and Dr. Hickson of the Chicago Municipal Court where the real cause and cure for crime is known. heen examined and their recordsl The army tests during the late, constitute the greatest group of 1 world war ýbowed that at least 25 eugenic material on crime in the per cent of the population of the world.

Prom practically all of the European countries there are many records of their dumping undesiriables into our country and our sbortsigbted government alhow- ed it to continue. We can easily imagine tihat when a shipload of in- mates of an English jail or aIms- house left that country for America, the Superintendent must have said to himself: "There, you Yankees, see if that boatload will me1t". In furtber support of bis tbeory Mr. Whitney says: It is obvious to me that Europe has . regarded this country as a humnan garbage can- that is no exaggeration, judging by tbe way those countries have assisted undesirables to Amerijca. Of course, most of the germn plasm which came bere was good; but cer- tiainljy the best wais not assisted. Every nation wants tbe best to stay and be tbe parents o-f the next gen- eration. We are not bere cansider- ing the best: we are înquiring into the source of crime. Those saine men in the legislature who if tbey bappened ta have bad a dog to breed, would have sent it to the best pos- sible mate that they could find, be- cause tbey recognize tbat that me- thod is tbe only method of main- taining tbe goodness in their breed, are allowing millions of defectives and undesirable human beings to corne into America wlere tbeir cbildren may marny the sons and daughters aof those undesirables, perhaps3: sa shortsighted to realize that wbaît applied to their dog's an- cestry apply also to their cbildren's. The herediilary condition here ta- day differs fromn the America o-f 1850 as mucib as daes tbe difference b'etween faxnilies. SEVEN MISTAKES 0F LIFE "There are seven mistakes of life that many o-f us make", said a fam- ous writer, ýand then fie gave the following list: 1. The delusion that i.ndividual ad- vancement is made by crushing otbers down. 2. Tbe tendency ta worry about thinga that cannot be cibanged er corrected. 3. Insisting that a tbing is im- possible because we ourselves can- not accomplisb it. 4. Atternýpting ta cosupel other persons to belie've and live as we do. 5. Neglecting devolopiment and refinemiment of the mind by not acquiring tbe lvabit o-f reading. 6. Refusing to set aside trivial preferences in order tbat important things may be a&~ompished. 7. The failure to establish the habit of saving money. DEPEND ON SUGAR IN CUBA A letter received £rom Cuba says: "Buisiness conditions re- main depressed in Cuba, due ta the continued low price of sugar. Our triop this season will hardly be as large as that o-f last year, but even at that we bave, according ta various estimates, approximately five million long tons. Wllhile an increase of 'one-baif cent a pound would not be greatly feit by the people o-f the north, it would bring prosperity and good times in this republic, the people of wbich depend on notihing else but sugar for an existence- Azton F'ree Press.
