A British general election in June is the newest forecast from the other {side of the Atlantic, and the same de- spatch hints that the European situ- ation will be the election issue. From the manner in which events at Genoa and in England are developing, it would appear that there- are good for this prophecy, and | should it be realigad, it will be be- j cause Premier lloyd George desires it to be so. The British premier, | acknowledged to be the greatest | political strategist of his age, realizes than an election must come soom, and | there is no doubt but that much of {his labour in the past few months has been directed towards consolidat.- ing his own position in preparation for. a general election, and the Genoa | conference has provided him with an | election fssue upon which he can | scarcely be defeated. The first great result of the Genoa conference, so far as British polities are concerned, will be to completely | solidify the coalition forces, In the face of the national perl from new Wars, a peril which has loomed up largely in the past two weeks, the internal dissemslons of the party Seem of a trivial nature. One Eng- lish newspaper views the European situation in tls 'way: : "If we have another world war, it will be fnfinitely worse than the last, It would involve the whole commun- ity of the nations engaged, and would be fought in the air, by means of chemical destruction, of which those who experienced last war have little conception." It ip on such sentiment as the above that Lloyd George would have a practical certainty of being return- ed to power in a gemeral election. It would re-unite all the forces which have him since the war caisis of 1916, for, no matter what faults 'the recalcitrant members of the coalition may find in him, all are ready to admit that he alone has shown the ability necessary to deal with big international problems in a big way. He stands out as the greatest of the players on the checker board of Buropean affairs, and the Britisher, | would be strongly opposed, and would result in a drastic division of | opinion.

Upon his retirement from the cus- toms service, the members of the trustee and official bdards of Syden- ham street church prevailed upon him to accept the position of church s@étretary-treasurer, upon the resign- ation of Rev.. William Craig, who went to Ottawa. He held that posi- tion for one year, and then asked the church body to relieve him of the work but he was living to carry on the treasurer's duties which he did up until the day of his death. He was arranging to present the financial statement of the church at the board meeting which was called for Mon- day evening, eal Two years ago, Mr. Shaw, upon be- ing notified that he had been grant- ed his retirement, stated to the Whig that he felt like a young man.

I saw a girl, a soclal pet, light up a costly cigaret; she blew the smoke around her head, and mournfully I sighed and said, "Great Caesar! Whither do we drift? These mod- ern women are too swift. 1 guess I am behind the times; I'm always seeing sordid erimes and vicious cus- toms, all day long, where others no- tice nothing wrong. But in the old days gone to seed, mo women used the Filthy Weed." I make such state- ments off the reel; I always like to make a spiel of dear dead days be- yond recall, when sin was not on earth at all. But when I sit me down to think, I find my spiel was on the blink. The women of the bygone years were wedded to the pipe that cheers. My grandma had an old clay pipe, and smoked a weed that smelled like tripe. The housewives used to blithely puff; when tired of smoke they tackled snuff; I see them smoking in a row, and slinging gos- sip to and fro.
