But desperate situations suggest des- perate "experiments, The Chamberlain party pomceived the brilliant idea of having as many papers as possible ad- vocating * protection or fiscal reform, and this was brought about by the purch of some of the leading pa- pers, and haying them co-operate with the Harmsworth and Pearson syndi- cates, The result is that the papers which férmerly reflected public opinion now essay the task of manufactur- ing it. The effect is apparent. The fiscal reform journals were as rabid before the elections as they are now, and they pointed to u great victory for Chamberlain. The defeat of the Balfour government dnd of the Cham- berlain party was most complete. The Bannerman majority was simply too large. It had to suffer sooner or later. There have been signs of a falling away, Majorities, as some one has remark- ed, do disappear, sometimes quickly. This was the experience four or five years ago. It will be the case again, But there is no real sign of an early collapse as yet, all the reports of the subsidizéd press to the contrary, The papers that were put under the ham- mer for political effect, that were re- quired for a purpose, may be meeting the demands of their buyers. But the average Englishman is not a stupid, He is not taking his polities from the hitling of any syndicate, though he tender his advice with the semblance of sincerity. Notes.

All whom Miss Bates had invited to her closing spent a happy: afternoon, listening to her pupils sing, recite and drill. One song in particalar, Miss Machar's "Cana- da," set to music by Heevor MacCar- thy, was highly praised, J. B. Walkem was most amusing as chairman, and Canon Starr presented the prizes. He told the children to be always sure to look for the beaut in the common every-day things, telling how the mud "we kick 'off our feet, and the sand and soot, if left long enough under ha conditions, become poreciain, and blue sap- phire, and the fiery-hearted opal, and the blazing diamond, jewels for the crowns of queens.
