Speaking of the care of the newly-born child, Dr. A. Leyland Robinson, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Liverpool University, said: "It is a startling thought that the first month is the most dangerous period of life, and that the first half hour of our existence Is probably the most critical part of this crucial period."

How Rogers lost this contest was a story often told in Manitoba's early political gossip. In j those days the section law pre vailed which permitted a man to l ivote in any constituency in which he held property. Early on election day Roeers had spnt. a num. ber of his supporters to Morden tp vote for Dr. Wilson, the Norquay candidate running against R. P. Roblln, then a supporter of the Liberal party under Green-way. They were to return to cast I their second vote, but It is alleged jthat a Liberal supporter was able to arrange with the conductor to delay the train until the polls had closed. Thus three times the number of Conservative electors necessary to insure Mr. Rogers' election were delayed in transit. Mr. Roger's expenses for this hectic campaign were just ten dollars. Shortly, after this election dissension developed in the Conservative party and a number of Norquay's colleagues deserted him as a result of differences of opinion over railway Issues. Norquay resigned and one of his supporters. Dr. D. H. Harrison, failed to form a government with the result that Hon. J. C. Aiklns, the lieutenant governor and father of Sir James Aiklns, called upon Mr. Greenway to form an administration. In the election of 1892 Mr. Rogers again found himself opposing Mr. Green-way. Again he met defeat owing, his supporters claimed, to the rearrangement of the constituency boundaries. Despite his lack of success at the polls "Fighting Bob" gained great prestige in the ranks of his party. From 1891 to 1898 he served a president of the Conservative Association of Manitoba, and was looked upon as virtually the party leader in the province. In 1896 he made his first excursion Into federal politics when he contested the constituency of LIsgar against the late R. L. Richardson, formerly owner of the Winnipeg Tribune.

The motor torpedo boat was designed by Hubert Scott-Payne, and was only recently handed over to the British admiralty. It is of 500 horsepower, and can attain a speed of about 65 miles an hour. The craft is the first of six new. high-powered torpedo boats. It was Inspected at Portsmouth by King Edward himself, and His Majesty was taken for a spin at top speed. Carrying a crew of ten, the vessel is equipped with two torpedoes, which may be fired by radio. It also carires light gun armament. Eighteen of the boats, it is said, can be built at the cost of one destroyer he found himself defeated by 54 votes. In 1899 Rogers again contested the constituency of Manitoba. In the sweep which put the Conservatives in power under Sir Hugh John Macdonald he was elected and a year or so. later when Roblln 'succeeded his colleague Mac donald as premier he was appointed commissioner of public works. While he displayed unusual capac ity as an administrator, politics continued to be his primary oc cupation, and during the 11 years which he served with the Roblin administration Jie had complete charge of the organization of evcrj campaign. During Mr. Roblln's absence he served as acting premier of the province, while his utterances on public platforms and In interviews were usually regarded as authoritative s'o far a: party policy was. concerned. In 1911 he resigned form his post In the Manitoba house to ac cept the portfolio of minister of the interior in the cabinet of Sii Robert Borden at Ottawa, and wa3 elected by acclamation by the con stituency of Winnipeg. Under his direction an aggressive immigra tion policy was pursued and during the years immediately prior to the war the tide of incomers reached its peak, the total immigration for this period, including 1914. having been 1,141,552. The outbreak of hostilities, however, saw a virtual cessation df these ac tivities. During the war he suc cessfully conducted negotiations with England's Royal Wheat Com mission for the sale of Canada'. "no grade" wheat, after the com mission had shown a distinct disinclination to purchase the great stores pt this grain which were awaiting shipment. In October 1912, he relinquished his portfolio to become Minister of Public Works. Although all his life a stout fighter in the political arena, Mr Rogers was of a kindly and toler able disposition. His personal friends Included not only public men but newspapermen on both sides of the nJolltical fence. In deed he enjoyed few things so much as to entertain members oi HEY.

He had quite a flair for newspaper work and In 1917 he was a stalwart supporter of Sir Robert Borden'5s decision as a wartime measure to make possible through an annual grant of $50,000 a truly national news association in Canada.

He was opposed to the union idea. He reappeared in the elections of 1921 in the consti- tuency of LIsgar, in which he met' with defeat. In 1925 he staged a political "come back" in the constituency of South Winnipeg when he defeated Hon. T E. Norris, former premier of Manitoba by a majority of 1617. In 1926 he was again 1 candidate in Scuth Winnipeg, but was defeated. However, in the general elections of July 28, 1930, he captured the seat. Mr. Rogers was an Anglican, being a brother to Rev. Canon George Rogers. He was also a prominent Mason. In 1888 he married Aurella Regina Widmeyer of Ontario and had a son, Robert George. Mrs. Ro- gers died July 4, 1934, in Winnipeg.
