The Poles are planning to build a seaport of Gdingen, \1h1ch is situat- ed on the Gulf of Danzig. Gdingen is near the end of the nan-"10“ c01- 1idor” that \\ as anarded to Poland at Paris in Ordei to give that coun-i t1y access to the Baltic Sea. It is about fifteen miles northwest of Danzig, and the harbor can be deep- ened to accommodate vessels that cannot get up the Vistula to the wharves at Danzig. Another reason for building the new port is that the Poles have found Danzig, which is still predominantly German, an un- satisfactory outlet for their com- merce. Germans and Poles do not 1 get along together any better there than they do elsewhere. I] of Sun Yat-sen after his flight from Canton, prove that he was interested in a project for an alliance between Germany, China, and Soviet Russia. iPresumably the scheme issued from the fertile brains of the Commisars at Moscow, who are turning their‘ attention more and more to making' trouble among the Asiatic nations. According to an Associated Press dispatch from Shanghai, Dr. Sun has admitted that the letters are auth- entic. THE DURHAM CHRONICLE I These are. of course, not, isolated E cases. The innocent. are continu- . ally sutfering for the guilty. Hardly ’ a member of the human race goes ' wrong but his transgression is re- ’ llected in the distress of others, his friends, sometimes his whole com- munity. His detection and punish- ment almost always involve the dis- grace, and sometimes the impover- ishment of those who share his jhome. l l But the law cannot. on that ac- vouut, withhold its hand.

(Toronto Star Weekly.) The Chatham Planet draws atten- tion to the case of a wife and eight children left. destitute by the incar- ones with the assistance of civic funds.

Even in Western Ontario there is; a much land that would be better it‘ planted to trees than going on as o weedy pasture. One might. go on to if a great length snowing why what is left of our woodlots should be pre- d served, and, where the cattle have _ been allowed to run in them, why they should be fenced in and re- planted with young trees to give them a proper start. But I do not think any better argument. could he found for this reforestation than that it will provide farmers with in- numerable helpers in the strenuous business of keeping down insect pests. Every once in a while the entomolOgists issue a warnim.r that unless insects are kept in check. food production will rapidly become unprofitable. if not impossible. Some of the most eminent of them do not hesitate to assert that llllless‘ the in- - sects are fought. methtulirally and strenuously they will render the earth uninhabitahle for human he- ing's.
