WHIG EE -- JIKEEPING GRADUATES IN CLOSER TOUCH lI With the University--Princi= pal Taylar Outlines a New Method. Principal R. Bruce Taylor in his report presented to the trustees of the University outlines a new method of keeping the graduates in closer | touch with the University. He says in part: "The great strength of the gradu- ate body is being discovered afresh in the present Endowment Cam- paign. It is to be hoped that the effort will achieys its aim, great as that is, but, apart from the money that may be raised, the campalgn will do more- than can be estimated | in any figures to maintain the alli-| ance between the Uniyersity and the | graduate. To keep the touch quick is a task not easy, but in this regard the University has hitherto been re- miss. Means should be adopted to] send once a year one or two of the members of the staff to visit the | Alumni Associations. If the person-| nel of the visitors were changed from | year to year, various faculties being | represented in the deputation, much | would be done not only to matniai | the loyalty of the graduates and the | cohesion of the Alumni Associations but the task would give to the Uni- versity representatives themselves al new sense of the value of the insti-| tution and a yet greater conception | of the land they live in. A perman-| ent Alfmni organization will abund-! antly. justify the small expense in-| volved. It is a sorry thing {if the student who leaves his University, | full of affection for the place and | for those who work within its walls, | ever come to think of himself as an academic waif." A keéner interest on the part of| «| students in current events in the realm of politics, literature, soci- vlogy, and art is advocated by Prin- cipal Taylor. "In the revived In- terest in intercollegiate and Imperial debating last year," he say$, "there is much encouragement in answer to the vital question as to whether apart from didactic effort the Uni- versity is alive. The problem is one that is always before the staff, and the multitudinous opportunities of intercourse between professor and student all tend to keep quick the in- tellectual interest that does not necessarily relate itself to examina- tions or degrees. The recent book, the author just coming into view, the ever-changing political situation ~-=the more these things become mat- ters of burning interest among the student body the better. In the prac- tical things of life the Canadian stu- dent, because he has so generally to is older than his years, but in the things of the reflective and literary life he is often at a disadvantage as compared with the undergraduate in an older country where books fill family tradition." A HAPPY CHILDHOOD A MATTER OF HEALTH Let Baby's Own Tablets Keep Your Children Well, Little children very quickly get out of sorts, By prompt treatment they can usually just as quickly be set right again. Most of their troubles arise in the first place from the stomach or bowels; that is why. a good cleaning-out is the first thing prescribed by the doctor. Formerly castor ofl was the means used to bring this about; now-a-days Baby's Own Tablets do the smme work, but without trouble to the parent or dis- comfort to the little one. Children take Baby's Own Tablets happily be cause there is no nasty taste and be- cause no griping after-pains follow their use. As a specific for childhood indiges- tion, vomiting, constipation, colic, colds, teething pains, ete., there is no- thing to equal Baby's Own Tablets. They never do harm and always do good. The Tablets are sold by medi- cine dealers or by mall at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. . What Jazz Musie Is.

Sir: A very serious situation in the Motherland is this unfortunate coal strike, and the whole labor world strikes in sympathy for the poor down-trodden coal miner, who de- mands the right to live and have a living wage. The owners of these coal mines live in luxury and pile up their millions at the expense and degradation of the poor coal slaves, who have to labor in these 'hells up- on earth. I speak from experience, Mr. Editor, I have been down a coal mine three times and saw for my- self. These terrible infernos where men have to sweat for hours to get this necessary fuel. We boast that under the Union Jack there is no slavery. It's not true, and the right thing and the only thing for the British Government to do is to com- pel these coal owners to give the coal miner the right to live or let the Government confiscate the mines as national property, and give the miner as & British subject the right to aSsert his manhood, and get a square deal for his wite and family. Until this is done these strikes will go on. Can you blame the men. This great war was to have ended all ty- ranny. The tyranny of the coal mine atill exists. May the Almighty give the Baldwin Government courage to do the right thing for the poor coal slaves. Believe me yours in sympa- thy with the strikers. --JOHN PUTTENHAM.
