Goodfellow, died at his home in Whitby after an illness oj ten days. Mr. Good- fellow was editor of the Whitby Gazette and Chronicle for sixteen years, and has been one of the most prominent and active jour- nalists in this section. He has taken a leading part in many movemen3s for the public welfare. He was a member of the Whitby Board of Education, Chairman of the Board of Health for some years, He was Secre- tary-treasurer of the local branch of the Canadian Patriotic Fund, and was President of the Mid- land Press Association for one year. Mr. Goodfellow hasbeen doing an extensive printing and pub- lishing business, in which his son, Mr. Graydon M Goodfellow has been partner for some years. Mr. Goodfellow's death has caused a great loss to the com- munity. It is pleasing to know that his son is so well fitted to carry on his father's business in a manner worthy of the high ideals set.

The many friends of Mrs. J. oir H. J. White ment may fail signally to repre- sent the people as a whole, and any class that feels that it" has no proper political representation will become restless. } Thereis another side to-the , question. People who feel that they are not adequately repre- sented in Parliament are likely to lose their sense of responsi: | bility as citizens. | Rightly or wrongly there are those who claim that the present strength of the farmers' party ad its origin in opposition to conscription. : '~ Whatever the cause, the fact .of that strength is apparent,and the present success will stimu- late to greater action, This energy must be saddled with re- sponsibility. There can be no better cure for criticism than to place the critic where he has to 'meet difficulties and be respon- sible for the proper conduct of affairs. The farmers need this sense of responsibility to be , brought home to them, and the actual business of helping to govern will develop this sense. _ Many people honestly believe in party government even to the t extremes to which it is frequent- ly carrid. But while unity both in the governing body and op- position may be very desirable, value to Parliament if a group |of legislators are elected who {are not so badly hampered by tradition and party ties as to in- terfere with their freedom of thought. i Allan Studholme needs 8 run- ning mate anyway. tin amt en id Miss Gertrude Armstrong.
