'. It is doubtful if in any other country in the _ world such advice from so conservative and wellâ€" informed an authority could be given toâ€"day. Ovâ€" _ _ er confidence and a superâ€"optimism is certainly _ not a common mental attitude the world over. The fact of the matter is that Canadians are inâ€" _ «curably optimistic/ It is this national characterâ€" _ istic that has enabled them in the fact of almost _ insupetable difficulties to establish theniselves _ firmly at home and to win glory and prestige P abroad. «It may be, at times, they have overshot the _ mark, and as our cousins to the south would exâ€" press it, "bitten off more than they could chew," _ but not often.. They invariably learn the lesson ~of a temporary check, and their unshakeable opâ€" timism and confidence enables them to snatch victory from defeat in a second or third attempt. It is this dauntless spirit that explains a hundred victories on the battlefield and a thousand triâ€" amphs in the home fields of peace. > f Annual reports show the work accomplished in the institutions directed by the association. Six hundred patients are now treated annually, _ and there are altogether over fifteen thousand _cases upon the roll of service to suffering huâ€" _ manity.. Nor is it merely, nor mostly, in tending the sick that the National Sanitarium Associaâ€" tion has placed this province in its debt. Operâ€" ating under its aegis, the medical profession has put into action modern and more effective methâ€" ods of combating the dread scourge of consumpâ€" tion. The knowledge amassed day by day in the institutions which now ask for aid has been so disseminated from one corner of Ontario to the other that the deathâ€"rate from, tuberculosis has been reduced by oneâ€"half in the past twenty years. ‘There should be no difficulty in reaching the million dollar objective set for, the present campaign for funds, if the response to the assoâ€" ciation‘s appeal is at all commensurate with the : worthiness of its work and the urgency of its need. Such results as those obtained by the Nationâ€" al Sanitarium Association give it at all times a strong claim upon the support of the public of Ontario. The present appeal is peculiarly enâ€" _ titled to cordial reception because of the, two heavy losses sustained during the past six months. The destruction by fire of the Muskoâ€" ka Free Hospital was a heavy financial blow. The death of Sir William Gage removed the _general from the fight against the white plague in the very hour when there was most urgent _ need for his resolute leadership. As a tribute to a great citizen‘s memory, generous and grateâ€" ful coâ€"operation should be assured to President Noting the optimistic feeling which still perâ€" vades Canadians, at a time when the country is supposed to be passing through a period of busiâ€" ness depression, in common with all other counâ€" tries, the Duke of Devonshitre considers it advisâ€" able to warn Canadians. His Grace‘s impression is that Canadians are at the present time in dulgâ€" ing in too rosy dreams of the future, and that they should moderate their tramsports of optimâ€" ism to something more in accord with the facts. There are two guiding principles worthy of inculcation amongst Canadians just now, and inâ€" asmuch as they won‘t cost anything to fulfill, they surely ought to be followed : % _ Shop in Canada. Spend your vacation in Canada. At a period when the exchange situation is as it is, and it is highly important to keep Canaâ€" dian money cireulating as much as possible, resâ€" idents of this country cannot pay too much atâ€" tention to such requests as are made above. United we stand, and all the cash in the country is required just now to keep things moving. The Bank of Montreal, which watches the agricultural situation closely, says of Ontario: <«‘Prospects generally are favorable. Seeding was delayed by wet weather. Fall Wheat average acreage. Generally in excellent condition but some winter killing is noted on low lying lands. Spring Wheat sown under favorable conditions, prospects good. Oats average acreage. Hay very; promising ; old meadows having wintered well. Grass pasture is well advanced. Dairying prospects are excellent. Orchards have come through well. Tobaceo acreage considerably reâ€" duced. Labor plentiful. Increased acreage unâ€" Ger cultivation. Cattle in good condition." _ Crop reports this year are excellent. All over Canada there is prospect that the Dominion will be blessed with a bountiful harvest. In our own district the outlook is the same. There was an unusually early spring, with seeding well adâ€" vanced. Labor has been more plentiful than for some years and general conditions are excellent. Eruit prospects are favorable. W. A.

CHARTERS, Sec.â€"Treas WEDNESDAY, JUNE . §TH, 1921 ED1 T OR T A L CANADIAN OPTIMISM BE FAIR TO CANADA CROP PROSPECTS 8. WILSON, Manag #er ger. °_ Many instances might be.cited of losses due to either wilful damage or carelessness by the peoâ€" ple themselves. In an eastern city during the past month a sewer became blocked by the deâ€" positing of material which could not be carried saway. Many cellars were.flooded and a cost of $30,000 entailed. These losses are reflected in the tax rate, and just so long as so much of the publicrevenue must be utilized to replace or repair the effects of neglect or disregard of public property, just so long will the tax rate continue to increase. I&?{,[r. Wetherell, editor of text books for the Ontario Education Department, illustrates the difficulty of avoiding mistakes, even when the greatest care is taken. The present Public School arithmetic had two authors, and each author was supplied with three assistants to check every question and answer. Yet, in spite of all these precautions, the department is reâ€" ceiving notices indicating several mistakes in the book. When authors and editors who have time at their disposal make mistakes, it is not surprisâ€" ing that blunders and inaccuracies are sometimes foundâ€"in fhewspapers, on which the work is done in such a hurry. that there is but little time for revision. ’ In our towns and cities one cannot go far without observing conditions of neglect and careâ€" lessness due entirely to the fack of interest/ of the people themselves. _« : It is a wellâ€"known axiom that a careless emâ€" ployer is reflected in a careless employee, which largely accounts for the fact that in altogether too many cases the cost of municinal public works is largely in excess of the cost of such works when privately carried out. _ Unfortunately, the average citizen feels that onee he has paid his taxes he has fulfilled his duty, and the city ean do the rest. He overlooks the fact that the city is but an aggregation of units, of which he is one ; that any improvements or maintenance charges must beâ€"paid for by these units, and he must bear his share. The United States is doing what it has a perfect right to doâ€"arranging its tariff to suit its own convehience. _ That it is making the changes as soon as a different party comes into power evidences that when a higher tariff best suits the interests of the people of the United States the customs tariff is bound to be raised. This would have happened whether or not the reciprocity treaty of 1911 had gone into effect. Only as long as the effects of such a treaty, were beneficial to the Americans would it have been allowed to stand.â€"Guelph Herald. While these figures may give some idea of the cost of certain phases of the war, it is true to say that the aggregate cost will never be known. If a study of such facts does not cause the nations to support the League of Nations for the prevention of war and the settlement of inâ€" ternational disputes by arbitration, it is hard to see how any thing else ever will. As Kipling says, "The spent world will sink back again hopeâ€" less of God and man." The financial outlay of all the combatant naâ€" tions has been estimated by Professor E. L. Bogâ€" ert, of Illingis University for the Carnegie Founâ€" dation for Thternational Peace, at about $187,â€" 000,000,000. _ The‘interest cos}s, including the value of human lives wasted, "and the, expendiâ€" tures will go on for another halfâ€"century. > The dead of all the nations, in battle, in prison camps swept by famine and pestilence, at sea and by accidents, have been put at 13,000,000. _ But even this does not represent the sum total, for the countries of Europe were swept by famine and pestilence, and while the number will never actually be known, it is reckoned to be greater than the 13,000,000 lost in the war. The contemâ€" plation of this appalling sum of human misery baffles the range of the most ‘vivid imagination, and much of.it will drag on in the mutilated remnants of humanity for another, halfâ€"century. While it is contended that it will always be utterly impossible to appraise the total cost of the great world war, either in the sum of human misery or in its economic effects, such as the destruction of property, the disorganization of trade and commerce and financial outlay. Some figures have been prepared which are interesting The International Labor Bureau at Genoa has attempted an estimate of the disabled war veterâ€" ans of all natipnalities. Without including the halt, the crippled and the mutilated remnants of humanity in Rassia, Tutrkey, Bulgatia, Austraâ€" lia, and New Zealand, the total exceeds. 5,500,â€" 000. The French atre 1,500,000, the Gerimans 1,â€" 400,000, the British 1,170,000, the Italians 570,000, the Americans 200,000, the Czechoâ€"Slovians 175,â€" 000, the Jugoâ€"Slovians 164,000 and the Poles 150,000, the Canadians.88,000, the Roumanians 8$4,000, and the Belgians 40,000. Russia‘s dead in the war have been â€"placed at 4,012,000, Turkey‘s at 288,789, Bulgaria‘s at 106,637, Australia‘s at 5§ 4160 and New: Zealands. at 16,13%. The French disabled gre only about 154,550 fewer than the dead, so that on this basis it may be roughly calculated that the disabled of Russia, Turkey, Bulgaria, Australia and New Zealand are not much lower than their total of dead 4,â€" 669,018, or, say 4,000,000 of disabled. The Geneâ€" va figures could easily be raised from 5,500,000 to 9,500,000. And even then India and South Afâ€" rica would not be counted, which number about 55,000. § 7 CARE OF MUNICIPAL PROPERTY Jn life you‘ll find there‘s every kind Of care and all the rest of it.

Little Jackie was spending a holiâ€" day in the country and was highly entertained by everything he saw in the barn and farmyard.

"Yes," he replied, ‘"he had a horse nearly finâ€" ished when I saw/ him, he was just nailing on his back feet. "How happy I am this evening, dear! I have done three good deeds toâ€"day." "What are they?" inquired his wife. "On the way to business," said he, "I saw a woman weeping on a church step with a baby om her knee. I askâ€" ed her what the trouble was and she said that she had walked seven miles to have her baby christened and now found that she had lost her money on the way.
