It is hard to pass judgment on a man who stand? in the glorious and vast spaces of the Peace River country and is dissatisfied because there are no "pubs." He also deplores the lack of hospitals; and in this there is some logic, as the "pub" gen-rf,,1(erally is a good contributor to the business of the hospital, a im;.- Then, there are no clubs. Well, a club situated about itlie centre of the Peace River country could not, at any -'"rate, afford to be over-exclusive regarding its member-" 'jlliip. And where would Hon. Evan Morgan locate the cricket pitch? That is of more importance than the "pub." No cinemas, no social life, nothing much but a glorious country awaiting settlement, presented a curious problem to this visitor, and he thinks it will not do at all for the prospective settler who has been accustomed to the comforts of London .... or Liverpool.

The child mind enjoys seeing a pie thrown in the old-fashioned Chaplin style and hitting some person who is least expecting. In a moving pictum this is sure to elicit uproarious laughter. Then there is the typical American humor typified by Mark Twain or the cruder humor of Jerome K, Jeronte as shown in "Three Men in a Boat." During the Peace River trip one of the English delegates, an English medical man, .who is member of the British parliament representing the Labor interests, made himself unpopular by stating very seriously that he never would believe one Word that Stanley Baldwin, former premier of Great Britain, ever said. They did not understand his particular brand of English humor. SPOOFING US (Toronto Globe) Another visitor to the Peace River apparently thought he would take a rise out of the Canadians. The Toronto Globe is beginning to suspect the truth and under the Reading "Is He Spoofing Us?" it has the following: L. Many people are beginning to think that the Hon. Evan I organ is a bit of a wag. He has provided a lot of good newspaper copy and given;Some interesting, and certainly .ffliusual. addresses. And still those who have heard him WitnessesTio loneer kiss the Bible in the rnnntv nm-t of Rteex (Ontario). Judgd Coughlin has ruled the practice obsolete and henceforth the clork will not be required to exorpise vigilance to seeihat witnesses do not kiss their thumb instead of Holy Writ. The whole purpose of the oath is to secure from thK witness a binding statement. This is. recognized by the statutes which provide that oaths shall be administered in:such forms and with such ceremonies as the witness may declare binding upon him. In the case of conscientious dbiectors, affirmations are accepted both in civil and criminal cases. The ruling of the Essex county court has tH support of hygienic principles. It is not necessary in the interests of truth that witnesses should be required;to kiss a vouume which has been mouthed by generations of witnesses of all sorts and tae raiding Bedouins shortly before tne British troops unlvcd.

Campaign Against B$ $m Trawlers in TialifaBM'Now There Is a big campaign In the Maritime Provinces against the use of beam trawlers In the fisheries of that part of the country. In a recent number the Halifax Star gives a whole page of interviews with fishermen, all of whom are opposed to their use. Following is an interview with W. H (.'.irad of Lunenburg which summarizes, the situation better than any of the others: "I consider the beam trawler the greatest hindrance to the fishing industry of Nova Scotia.
