Widows and Children
Must Get Justice.

On Saturday we reported a meeting at which strong pleas were
made for the widows and orphans of those fell overseas. When
the men went away to fight for their country it was on the under-
standing that the country would look after their wives and
families. In many cases distinct promises were made by recruit-
ing officers, but outside of that there was a tacit understanding
that the country would do what was right. If the soldiers fought
for the right, the government at home should do the right.

So far, the Canadian Government has not done the right
thing by the widows and orphans. As the speakers said at the
recent meeting, no woman can expect to live on $48 a month.

In Prince Rupert widows of soldiers have had to go out
scrubbing in order to make enough to keep them decently. They
have found that they cannot live on the pittance paid them. As
Major Robertson truly said, “We have to hang our heads in
shame” when we think of it.

Mackenzie King
Not Coming Yet.

It will be rather a disappointment to Prince Rupert people
to think they will not have an opportunity to see and hear W. L.
McKenzie King, the new leader of the Liberal party, until well on
into the autumn. Perhaps by that time the election campaign
will be on and he will not come under such happy circumstances.
If he came now all would join to welcome him, just as all would
join to welcome Premier Borden if he took it into his head to
visit this far western point. It is a matter for regret that Sir
Robert has never been here, though he has been premier for a
number of years. His eyes turn east so much more easily than
west.

We are becoming so important that all the statesmen will
want to come here before long. In the meantime we must con-
tent ourselves with an occasional visit from one of the minor
ministers of the crown. We are looking forward to Mr. Ballan-
tyne coming and hope that when he arrives he will be so inter-
ested in our needs that we shall want to see him often.

Sport Interest
Is Reviving.

There is a revival of interest in local sports. The football
league and the baseball games add to the healthy development of
the place. Soon we shel! have more sports, for basketball is
talked of for the autumn, and it is much to be desired that some
organization shall We formed to give phtysieal classes and gym-
nastim work at the Exhibition Building throughout the winter.
We cannot well get winter swimming, but we may get the other
exercises.

There is a proposal to complete the levelling of the Market
Place and use. it for outdoor sports. The suggestion is worth
investigating. Possibly it would add to the interest taken in
games generally if that ground were made available for the foot-
ball and other games as well as for the boys.

Children Should
Have the Best.

The children should have the best we can offer. What is
the good of making money if the children are not going to get
the benefit of it. Just now the children of the commmunity need
a school. They need the best in quality and on the best possible
site. Both the school trustees and the members of the City Coun-
cil have investigated thoroughly and found that the best possible
site available is one near the Acropolis Hill playgrounds. They
are now asking the ratepayers to approve their choice and grant
the necessary power to proceed.

Good Schools are
Good Business.
What Prince Rupert wants mure than anything else is popu-
lation. If we have good schools, family people will come here. If
we have poor accommodation, discerning parents will stay away.
Just now we have an opportunity to help the school trustees pro-
vide a good school for the community. Some are opposing the
plan and they have a right to their opinion. It is hardly reason-

able for them to do se, however, without offering the public an
alternative.
