As the announcers tell us: When you hear the airplane 1--.; “A n... nilnt reneat the words “on time” it land and the pilot repeat the w I. '--w. vâ€"v Those two small words very often spell the dif- ference between success and failure. Radio fans know that broadcast programmes commence and end almost on the second. They have to if they expect to hold the fans and be of any benefit to the adver- tisers using the radio as a business pr0position. No be with any other business. We should be “on time”. The firm that is successful is the one that fulfills its obligations “on time”. We might carry the argument even further and use it in the discussion of individuals. Some of us are always on time, others never are. There are some people who always have to run to catch tho train, they arrive at the corner at about the same moment the street car starts, they have a sprint of from fifty to one hundred yards after the last dong of the church bell. They may be very good people. but when they come to die and make their final jour- ney up the golden stairs and on through the pearly gates will in all likelihood arrive out of breath or still have a few yards to go when St. Peter springs: tho catch. ‘1' j _ ‘A Starting on Monday morning, a was and there, and continued 'all thro means an hour or two on Saturday ni be accounted for.

We intend trying this out ourselves after the first of January. We were rather pleasantly surprised last Wednes- day night to hear Miss Macphail, M.P., say publicly that the only hope for naval and army disarmament lay in the creation of a sense of security amongst the ' Europe. Our lady M. P. also n of Canada to commence in ne'opposed to war. It is not so long ago that Miss Macphail was opposed to everything military and is credited with saying that Britain, to show an example to the rest of the world, should curtail the construc- WATSON. “ON TIME” t Smith is never Tell this to Jones, only get together. We know as well as anyone else that war is silly; and everybody else as well as we also knows it. The reason for war lies in the cus- to get nearer home, the cus- toms of individuals. It is not necessary mm "W men or two women should fightâ€"but they do. Talk to them after the battle and they will agree with you. But they will fight again when the proper provoca- tion arrives. And nations at war are only people who are settling their differences collectively. We have little sympathy with the pacifists of the British Empire or its dominions. If there is any one country in the world where a large standing army “71â€" _- _L-“IA one UUUIIIIIJ III VJJV v or navy makes for peace it is Britain. Why should she be the first to disarm? What has she done in modern times except preserve the peace 0 We could have more respect for the British pacifistic class if they would first go to Germany, France, Russia, Japan, or even the United States, line them up behind their policy of world peace and then ap- proach their own Government. Great Britain is the Neither are we so much opposed to anytnmg military that we find fault with the Cadets, the Boy Scouts or similar societies. It may be true that they appear military, but appearances are sometimes deceitful. We had a talk with a Toronto man a short ‘ man said he had two boys, both of them were in the cadet corps, and he was glad of it. “If the Cadet ' ” said this man, “it has their necks and ears. movements may seem military, anywhere they simply have to adopt discipline. The march of the school children in a fire drill is military t how would we train the children otherwise? 80 Miss Macphail and The Chronicle can agree 1 at leastâ€"we both favor world peace; on one thing, rks here this .last week and according to her rema this happy condition can never we have the public opinion of the wor We can gain nothing by ditching our navy and our army, withholding our government grants from the militia and the cadets, or in other ways of this nature. If public Opinion is behind the desire for world disarmament, it makes little difference how large our army or navy is, the public opinion of our own country would not let us use it, and it would gradually disintigrate, fall apart and become about as useless as Miss Macphail’s pet Ottawa collection, tho Senate. ' As Canadians, we want peace; all Britain, and all civilization wants peace. since war was discredited. The greater portion of Britain’s war debt has been caused by fighting bat- It is hard to tell trol of the seas. We want peace and should work let us not get foolish about for it. In the meantime, it.
