W. Rowell, and Jonas Thornton. Blake is dead. Rowell is devoted to law and the League of Nations. Thornton, who sometimës spoke to Ithe flouse of Gommons like a right Ireverend father who supported Row- ell and then damned hlm altogether, is returning officer for Durham. Hie is, therefore, removed fromn participa- tion in strif e, which bas been dis- tasteful to him, ever sînce, a genera- tion ago, when lie left the Libemal party, hie discovered, to his pained surprise, that George Brown was a practical politician as well as a self- denying patriot. Preston bas been denounced by many of those who have feit bis hand; but bis conscience is clear. If he didn't always wasb bis hands in pol- itical innocency, hie always rînsed tbem in political orthodoxy. During ten years of Liberal government in Ontarioolbe was chief organizer for -tle-party. 1MA-tells--hoi- Bk eï-- when bie became such, spoke mag- nîficently to'bim about the imperious necessity for doing nothing that would not pass muster before him- self and the Judgment Day. It is twenty odd years since Preston ceased to direct by-elections la this province. The fashions of those days, hie blesses Providlence, are not, quite the modes of is Wbiat bie could tell is not pertinent to bis candidature for Durham-a candidature whîch lhe was confident would be successful, while it was thought it would be tested by a by- election, instead of being ln the wel- ter of a general melee. Hie bas a- poicy of his own, whicb is designed to revolutionize the export apple trade; and which, competent judges say, is as good as Ontario apples tbemselves. Yesterday, at Orono, old Jonas's homne, and Bowmanville, wbere Sena- trBith retains a goodly ifune Preston had the help of bis leader; and you may be surethat this morn- ing thougb in the midst of a bard fight he's as frisky as the horse whose neck is clothed wîth thunder, and Whbo sniffs the battle from afar, For a man past 70-50 daysast- --enton is .t-eoungest thing extant. Not one jot or tittle of bis natural force is abated. At 54 a Londont dotor put him on an operating able, punched hlm in wind and limb; and pronounced himi to be ia a more per- fect state of preservation than any specimen of old or new world ana- tomy lie bad ever seen. fie used to wear a short beard;, but for some years lie bas been content witb a short moustache-laying aside every1 weigbt, you know, so that lie ray bet-1 ter ruxi the rage ýset bef ore him. Elections to hlm are like water to ar duck. Not even government jobs1 could keep him out of a scrap. While1 provincial organizer lie had a crack at1 East Durhamý for the Gommons la 1885. Then baving transferred tor the otîum cum dignitate of the Lib- rarîansbip la Queen's Park, hie took a canter in West Toronto la the Lib- emal annus mîrabilis of 1896. Even that wasn't enough; for that winter hie became a Toronto aldermnan; andu 50 remained tili 1898. Clifford Sifton sent hlm to Europe as inspector of immigration agenciest la 1899; and tbree years inter made hlmn Commissioner of Immigration ind London. Sir Clifford, an -infallible t judge of capacity, always speaks ofC hlm as a very capable and efficientu public servant. The London phaseq of bis career was deeply interesting to ahl who participated in it; and most of all to the 111gb Commissioner, Lord Strathcona., A sequel to it wâs Preston's book on Stmathcona. Re- commending ît a present-day pro-F vincial libarian wrote that it is not C only as informative as it is frank, n but it is distinguished by an admiÏ-r- able lterary style-which is' true. f Preston used to run a paper la Port Hope, wbere lie now resides and F where bie married Miss Harris, a4 Iovely girl, as she is a charming grandmother. fiHe also represented- the London Advertiser, Montreal fier- ald and other Libemal papers in the Ottawa gallery., fis own phraseh about that phase of a life that could, no more belp being strenuous thanq an umbrella can help getting wet,' is that bie "gave himself to journal- isma" Whatever lie does be does quickly and wbole-heartedly. fils decisionsT may be wrong; but tbey are reachedv wth refresbing celerity. fie keeps, bis pledges. fie bas that courage-p wbicb Lloyd George says is the T greatest of all political qualities. fie1 doesn't mmid being bit, partly be- -h As Prestori's iiveiy volume shlows, ail the trutb about Stratbcona could- n't be cbanted to the mensure of de mortuis nil nisi bonura. The Emi- gration Commissioner was made offi- cially subordinate to the fiigb Corn- missioner. No. fi. C. bas yet been a hemo to bis E. C. The Old M,,arvel was the greatest stickler for bis su- premacy over aIl the lesser Cana- dian ligbts wbich shone in London.ý Agents.-Genemal of Canadian provin- ces la bis day did not receive the officiai invitations tbat the Ag-ents- Genemal'of Australian states did.

The Old Main was a model MUSIC NECESSARY AS FOOD Music is the universal Ianguage, the most widespread form of enter- tainment in the world. The savage hardly knows why it pleases hlm, but it 15 as necessary to hidm gs eating. TIn our modern civilization music marks its devotees with a culture given only in a lesser degree by the other arts. Its charm. to the leamned or the ignorant is not ephemeral, but is as enduring as the human race !t- THE EDITOR 'TALKS. We devote considerable space in fthis issue to particulars of Bowman- ville Hiospital as brought out la. re- ports at the annual meeting on Wed- nesday of last week. It was very disappointing to citizens wbo give so much time,,thougbt and attention to the institution to see the littie Inter- est manifested by the other citizens. Few were present ehsides the mem- bers of the Hiospital and Ladies' Aux- ilîariary Boards. ýPossibly no instit- ution in town deserves the support and voluntary efforts of cîtizens to Areater degiree than 'the fibsp*tal., Its wasvmest friends are those who' bave been under treatment there Wic is the best kind of ýtestiomony to its worth to the community. The report of the numbers of inates.for the past year shows that the sur- roundîng country shares in its ben- efits. We Erbould lîke to folloxv up art- icles published ia this family journal last week to young people about doing something wôrtb while la their youth. something that will tell iný their char- acter and life la the days of their working activities. Bowmanville hms this, Fali and Winter a. good nîght school conducted by Miss Coma Fulton wbich sbould be attended by- scores of young folk ofboth sexes.> Educ- n--tion-is--a very-vnltMleaset-în-the- life of person and youth is the time for acquiring it. The Adolescent School Act is framed to benefit Can- adian youth. Get ail the schooling possible. Who can tell wbat is. a- bead --any boy la this world? Ev- ery boy sbould have the advantage of at'least as much schooling as will enable hlm to know the meaning and value of education and leave him witb the'desire and the ability. to continue the work of educaton after bis school days are over. This ap- plies equallyý to the girls as well as boys. OBiTUARIES Mrs. (Capt.) Mihigan, Newtonville. An old and highly respected ci ti - zen of Newtonville, Margaret Hiarvey,j widow of the late Capt. W. P. K. Milligan, was called home Tuesday, October 25, after an illness of tbree weeks.
