The aviators, the motorists, those who go in boats, everyone, is in a mad chase of “going,” and going at highest pos- sible speed. As a consequence, thous- ' ands of lives are immolated daily to the God of Going. Railway trains, steam- ; boats, ocean greyhounds, all are after speed. The race horse is after speed. 1 Motor cycles are now doing 90 miles an hour, and a new demon of the road is :here. No one can keep stillâ€"everyone ' must be on the go. And the roll of sud- - den deaths piles up. A new and greater juggernaut is with us now. How the Chinaman is. to be envied. He 1 believes in repose. A holiday to him is ;a rest. It is not a whirling onward by i one or another device. Oh, that we - could imitate the Chinaman for a. while and just sit down. A week end with us . IS a rush somewhere and rush back Jagain. Ali's a sweat. On the road one’s life is. in constant : danger ; the air will soon be filled with ; flying birdinen, from whom a shower of :hammers or tin cans will threaten the man below. i Where is it all to end ? Is there to be no land of repose, no oxcart, no ambling ' horse, no three mile an hour walk ? Why :not starta new cult, that of the plea- sure to be had. going slow? Reverse - the game. ' '_ There will be a' new heaven, anew I earth, a new humanity when we worship rest and abandon speed.

But no gum trouble has presented as many dif- ficulties as that which has grown out of the current interpretation of the Sab- bath observance law.

To the lay mind it would seem legal to have Sunday gum racks in the res- tam-ants to which patrons could attach their gum after a reasonable amount of indulgence, returning occasionally ' through the day to enjoy a chew. ‘This does not meet all the dililculties of the problem, and it may not be an uuassail- able compliance with the law, but it is a natural suggestion. The restaurant keeper who can settle the question of candies or ice cream in an instant is 3 bewildered when asked as to gain; in ‘fact it is questionable if gum is ever really consumed. Of money Horace Greely says it is never consumed, but merely changes hands. This aphorism \might be modilicdso as to apply to gum, gbut that would not solve the problem“ Having regard for the long judicial vacatioh and the Governmental princi- ples involved, it would be wise not to seek a court interpretation of the law as applied to gum, but to have a delinite enactment by the responsible repre- * sentativcs of, the people.

I have paid for my education, and what I have learned I will never forget." fir Getting Back Its Own. Canadian Farm. There is a reason behind this increas- ed demand from the West for beef. Last fall train load after train load of feeders found their way to Ontario feed lots from the West. And it is these finished cattle that are going back again to sup- ply the demand for beef arising out of the fact that the West let its material go last fall because of a supposed feed scarcity. It was predicted then that the same cattle would find their way back West to supply the demand for beef, and for once, at least, a market prediction has come true. The whole business, however, looks like a waste of good money. Freight had to be paid on these cattle both ways, and railways do not carry live stock a couple of thousand nothing. Had the Western farmer held his head a bit and not sacriâ€" ficed so many‘ of his cattle, the extra price the consumer has to pay for beef would have been avoided, and the far- mer would have received a. larger return. There \ 'as a big feed supply in Ontario, it is true, but to have to send cattle two trips over a long line of railway in order to get at it, looks a bit like extra- some of Ontario’s big feed supply to the West. There would have been only freight to pay one way at any rate. However, the thing was not worked out that way, and the Westerner is face to. face with a bed? scarcity, and: his cost of living has been increased. It may run, and may give the beef cattle busi- ness of the West just such a stimulus as is needed to establish it on a permanent footing, A Tragedy. Near Oskvuood. An accident that resulted in the death of, Mrs. Win. Coad, serious injury to her injury to Mr. Samuel Webster, occur- red soon after the closing of nsmrniugl service in the Oakwood church, which they had all been attending. While on . their way .home, and less than a mile from the village, Mr. Coad's buggy, in which were himself, his wife and one of their grown-up daughters, was over- taken and passed by one driven by Mr. George Graham. Whether the speed at which his horse was going frightened Mr. Coad’s horse or not is unknown, but he ran away, and so did Mr. Webster‘s; and for a minute or two there appeared to be a race, which was won by Mr. Graham, who went on his way and was seen no more. Though there was no collision, as was at first reported, something caused Mr. Coad to fall out of his buggy, and he was bad- ly hurt, but is recovering. After runâ€" ning a short distance, Mr. Coad’s horse overtook M r. Webster's buggy, at which Mr. Webster-out over the seat or knocked him out sideways. He was either tram- pled on by the horse or run over by the buggy, perhaps both, live of his ribs be- ing broken and other serious injuries inflicted. It was seen from the first that he could not recover, and this (Fridayhnzirning news .was received that he died last night. At the request of Mrs. Coad, her daughter jumped from their buggy, sprainiug one of her an- kles; notwithstanding which she man- aged to rise to her feet, and, looking around, saw her mother lying on the ground. Whether she jumped, or fell, or was thrown from the buggy is not known, but she was quite dead, with her neck broken and a ghastly wound in one of her sides. She was sister of Mrs. John Copp, Mrs. George Littleton, Mrs. John Woods and Mr. Samuel Brokcnshire, all. of Fenolon Falls. Her funeral, which took place on Monday, is said to have been the largest ever seen in the town- ship of Mariposa. Mrs. Webster, who was with her husband, crouched down in the buggy and escaped unhurttas the her so stopped running when he hadrget. tired. as also did Mr. Coad's.
