and Canada had ractised absolute dis- armament in re ation to each other and had found the results to be entire- ly good. We had been saved millions in money. and disputes between us had been satisfactorily settled. by the In- ternational Joint Commission, on which each country is equally re esented. I inted out that no sma er power in urope felt the same security as we. though our neighbor was rich and I advocated disarmament on the grounds of our favorable geographical position. the impossibility o arming against the United States. were it nec- essary. and more especially on the ground that (or ‘a centmflnited States .

We cannot bring about disarmament in another country; we can bring it about only in our own. and I know of no country which is in such an excel- lent position as Canada to begin and to set an example which I am sure would be gladly pfollowed by all other. countries in the world.

It passed with a large majority. The Military estimates took most of Tuesday. Since this year Canada. as one of the sixty-two nations who signed the Kellogg Pact. renounced war as an instrument of national policy. the debate on military estimates was rticulariy significant. When the ellogg Pact was before the House the Prime Minister said: "We should make the principle underlying this Treaty a basis of consideration in all matters of foreign policy.” and in the same de- bate. Mr. Bennett. the leader of His Majesty's loyal opposition. used these words: “The first step to be taken if this Treaty is to be maintained and enforced by the Canadian people. is to bring about disarmament."

The number of Cadets in Canada have increased from 9.000 in 1909. to 130.000 last year. The present yearly e diture is half a million.

No one appreciates a little joke more than Mr. Charlesworth. and here we find quite a few. About the best one of these, is about James Brady, circus and theatrical man. The circus was in Montreal. Brady made a bet with a newspaper friend of The Star that he could plant a story with The Witness. a very religious and moral paper. This, said his friend, was im- possible. Brady went to The Wtiness editor and asked for advertising, but was politely and regretfully refusedi Then he suggested a little story for the Children's page about an elephant and a dog. Two dogs were fighting. and the smaller getting the worst of it. An elephant nearby, seeing this, immediately picked up the little war- rior with his trunk and hoisted him on his back. Since then. the two were inseparable friends. The Editor thought this was fine and the story was printed. So Brady won his bet! Then Brady invited the editor to bring his little boy to the circus to see the friendly dog and elephant. Brady's only reply was that the dog had wan- dered away. Later, in telling the story to the author he said: ‘I did not think there was a newspaper man on earth who would accept that bit of hokurn To anyone interested in singers and singing the chapters to great vocalists, past and present. will prove most fas- cinating. Here we have intimate glimpses of Jenny Lind and Nellie Melba, Patti and Lehmann, and many other famous vocalists. Of the whole book, we enjoyed these chapters most. and these too. the author tells us, gave him the greatest pleasure in writing. Mr. Charlesworth deals at some length with crime and murder cases and although frequently gruesome. they make interesting reading. The Emma Orr murder case at Galt proved especially so. as many of the references to locality are familiar to us. In fact. the following sentence comes very close to home: “The Orr farm lay half a mile or so from the beautiful stock farm of Miss Wilkes, located at. the juncture of the Grand and Speed Rivers. near Preston. Ontario.’ There is no denying the fact that we were quite thrilled to see our town mentioned in this note- worthy volume even in so casual a way. The author chooses Sir William Mulock as one of the most picturesque figures in Canadian life. and one chapter ‘Octogenarian’s Survey of Confederation‘ is all about this kindly old. gentleman. The number of people to which he refers in this book are legion. There is an index of names covering eight and a half ciosely printed pages so from this can be seen how numerous they are.
