" NIAGARA FALLS, March 27 As a result of the newly-enacted 3.2 beer bill, a Canadian invasio: of this and other border cities ir impending. 'With drinking in public places "banne¢ in Ontario, many res: dents of nearby. Canada ar planning parties in the restaur ants and proposed heer gardens here as soon as the 3.2 flow starts. THE OTHER SIDE OI THE ARMAMENT QUESTION (Continued from Page 1) same ideals and philosophies in- to the inferno unprepared and without means of averting the sacrifice 'which is always asso ciated with the disarmed or in- adequately armed or protected people. Throughout the ages great men have deplored the sacrifice and uselessness of war. States men and politicians in every nation and age have spent them selves in efforts to avert the destruction of war, but to date no effective means have yet been devised to successfully combat the evil, hence farseeing people concede the truth of the adage "In the midst of peace prepare for war," and by sufficiently preparing at least postpone the inevitable. ~ Today, with wars and rumours of wars and more or less open threats against our own security, jt is he aly the time for the blind to lead the blind to des. tructicn or for babes and suck- lings and peace protaganists to blind us te what may easily be- come a real peril. The world has, long realized that the best assurance of peace is a strong defence. Who cares after all whether Vickers or Duponts sup- ply the sinews of war to China and Japan? Possibly the white races might find cause for ve- joicing in the present struggle and encourage the combatants to exaust themselves and so retand the long dreaded threat of the Yellow Peril. Seventeen years ago, Ramsay McDonald, now Premier of Erg- land, was persecuted and im- prisoned for his pacifist activities during the late unpleasantness. yet less than a year ago, this great apostle of "Peace at any price" assured the Disarmament Jonference at (feneva, that Brit- ain, was already "dangerously disarmed' and thot no further reductions could be made ccn- sistant with the safety of the far scattered Empire. Since then almost all the nations of the world have from time to time made belicose gestures at all and sundry and the prospect of European participation in the Sino-Japanese affair is not alto- gether remote. Of course the spoils of war as evidenced by the munitions profits are notorious, but that fact cannot justify such criminal unprepardness, as prevailed in the British Empire prior to th late war and which our cooing doves of today would have us emulate. AE Lord Roberts was a great sol- dier and a very real earnest Christian, yet, in spite of his own tragedy in the death of his: only son in South Africa, he spent years of his life, encounter- ing apathy and ridicule preach- ing to the youth of his country the need for adequate prepara- tion. : © That his fears were justified and his theories tragically vindi- cated, is of course history, yet, today we have the great unin- formed blindly advocating a wre- turn to unarmed insecurity. "There is no peace, but by the sword,'"' said a greater man than I and Christ himself used the words quoted at the head if this 'article. --P. W. Carr. The following from this Dis- trict were called to Kenora for jury duty at the Spring Assizes of the Supreme Court of Canada last week: Messrs T. C. R. Craw- Jey, K. G. Austin, A. A. Gould, H. J.

Arm- 'strong, Fagle River, | CANADA THE [DEAL VACATION -L.AND A COUNTRY OF SCENIC CHARM AND OUTDOOR RECREATION IN recent years Canada has become one of the most popular playgrounds of the North American continent and millions of tourists visit this country annually, in r 3) search of recreation. Canada possesses an extensive sys- tem of modern highways, with good secondary roads linking together the main routes of travel. Excellent train services are in operation be- tween the principal cities, while steamship = lines connect lake and ocean ports. Every class of travel accommodation is available, from tourist camp to luxurious hotel. Our larger Canadian cities possess some of the finest hotels in the world and the majority of smaller cities and towns have modern establishments which cater to the travelling public. Recreational Attractions' Nearby Within reasonable touring dis tance of the main centres of popu- lation, recreational attractions of outstanding | merit are to be found. Lakes and rivers well stocked with fish, hunting areas of vast extent and camping grounds in their natural state, are only a few of the many features which make the country. a popular vacation land during all sea- sons of the year. An atmosphere of old France permeates Quebec and the Maritimes, while Ontario and the Western provinces have much to offer by way of historic sites and monuments. Numerous Canoe Trips Tor those who desire a vacation close to mature, a canoe trip is ideal and Canada's extensive system of rivers and lakes offers a limitless choice of route and type of trip. close to civilization, which may be taken with comfort all districts. camera hunter its, camper, student of wild try's vast forested area.

The game fish include, salmon, brook trout, lake trout, bass, maskinonge, pike, pick- erel, grayling, steelhead and tuna. Intelligent protection. and constant re-stocking help to keep up the sup- ply of fish in the popular districts, while in the more remote areas there are still plenty of virgin waters. The cost: of fishing licences is moderate and the open seasons are long. Golf and Tennis Popular Canada is well supplied with golf courses and new ones are being built in every province. No city is without at least one golf club and most of the larger towns and popular summer re- sorts have courses. popular in all parts of the country.

Chas. McCrea, Minister of Mines, announces parties which will be put in the field this sum- mer by the Geological Branch of his department. £0 Among those being sent will be one under the head of Dr. J. E. Thomson, who was working in the upper Manitou last season and will continue his work to the south. : : In this area, the article goes on to state, there are a number of old gold properties at present idle, but which are receiving the attention of prospectors and; mining companies. It is believed that possibly later 'geological information on this area may be of assistance in reviving prospecting activities. Messrs W. Kerney, A. E. Berrey and Morris Spicer were in Kenora last week to attend the Spring Assizes. Chief F. Russell and Prov. Const. 'A. E.
