This year the: matter was attended to early and the Exhibition has the assurance that there will be no repetition of last year's trouble. The rates extend over {he full two weeks period. | | Looking Ahead The war cannot last forever--even the most pessimistic must admit that. ' Equally there is no doubt that the Entente Allies will win the cause for which they are fighting. What is that cause? To summarize the motives of the ruling classes in the nations that "are involved might be a difficult task --the diplomat has been entrusted with great power, and history may or may not reveal how that power. has 'been used. That is the realm of mystery. But there is no mystery about what the average man is fight- ing for. He recognizes Great Britain as the author and protector of self- government, and he is fighting for a continuance and expansion of that blessing. Our politics of the future must make the largest measure of ! self-government our first interest, We ,are paying the price, we must not i miss the reward. This means that we shall have to ' study world politics, and broaden our | outlook. If we can fight for the 'Empire, we can help to govern it.
