Of course, it follows that wherever students graduate, those watching the performance are as excited as those in it. They are the parents and grandparents, the sisters and brothers and all the rest of the family. This is a family affair. It has th sum" blend of joy and sadness laced with intimacy as a wedding. JUit something special was added to the proceedings last nitfht by the unusually lare number of scholarship awards. Many of those present were members of the organizations which made these awards available. To each of them the occasion meant a little more than the graduation of an individual student. In some cases the .scholarship money was raised at the sacrifice of other undertakings. In all cases it was jiven with the thought that some unidentified but deserving student would have that much better chance to et ahead. The mathematical probabilities were against this student being; the same as the one whom the participating donor came especially to. see. But that was not the point. What did matter was that :tn impersonal effort was being made to encourage promising students and widen their opportunities. It is unfortunate, of course, that not all who try can win. Some students must always be disappointed. Hut the donors should not be uneasy for that reason. Nor should the losers feel disheartened.

That is, to guarantee those people, In a way that will run. vince even the most Ignorant of them, that the West mean.-, business about liberation and better living standards. How can the Indo-Chinese, for instance, ever accept the bona fides of talk of democracy, when the head of that democracy lies on the sands of France, and when the power of the French Union In Indo-China Is represented by conscripts of one form or another, drawn from Afric-in colonies, or from German war veterans, serving as foreign legionnaires? There Is only one way to "Save" Indo-China and every other similar area from (.he Communists. That is, to build on some plan capable of getting tli respect and nuonorft ol -lb new true democracies of A.sla, such ms India. Pakistan, Burma, and Indonesia. Any strong arm attempts by the West to build any Asian defensive agreement without such support will boomerang.

Mcl.F.OO Hon. Robert Winters, who i taking leave of absence from his i portfolio of Minister of Public Works in order to sell Canadian lishery products in Spain, Portu-Ral, and other Eiii'uiican markets, obviously must le an Individual of considerable ve rsui.il -ily. l Or Ls that a necessary inference? In at least' some Parliamentary circles the theory is current that lion. Mr. Winters is going abroad basically for the opportunity that the nip will Rive him to think over the problem of his own political future quietly and dispassionately. The competing pressure.s of the group which wanl.s him to return to his naUve Nova Scotia in the role of Premier, and of the equally Insistent group that wants him to remain In the Federal arena, are reported to have landed Hon. "Bob" In a Nu-Man's-Land of indecision iium which he is unxious lo rescue himself by a period of cnieful .soul-searchiiiR. The weight of opinion at Hie moment in Federal circles is that Hon. "Bob's" final decision will be in favor of a return to his native Nova Scotia. In the judgment of the most competent political observers, Hon. "Bob" has in the final analysis no other real alternative. The .reason for this conclusion Is the plight in which the loss of the late Premier Angus L. Macdonald has left the Liberal Party in Nova Scotia. Although himself a Romari Catholic, "Angus L" commanded the full support of the Scotch vote In Nova Scotia, Including the hard-shell Presbyterians of Cape Breton. Yet despite this happy situation, the Liberals in the last general election within the province could have been unseated by a switch of just 500 votes, struW'-Bically cast in the ridings where they would exercise a maximum ' effect. j No Liberal who think at all realistically in these pails attempts to conceal from himpelf ' the fact that the disappearance of Hon. "Angus L." will make a far greater difference in the over-all provincial situation thin the. 500 votes needed for a turn over In government. Hence the feeling that, in the general party Interests as well as his own, Hon "Bob" Winters will recognize the necessity of accepting the mission of holding Nova Scotia safely within the Liberal Party fold. It is accepted in Parliamentary circles that Hon. "Bob" is an in dividual of long-range ambitions. Furthermore, it is conceded equally that his fundamental abilities entitle him to hitch his political fortunes lo the highest available star. But a Cabinet Minister whose province is oji- Posed lo him politically has three strikes agaln.st him from tli start. That is why a salvage job in Nova Scotia could be the .stepping-stone to Hon "Bob's'' completely legitimate Federal aspirations especially if they ure of a long-term leadership vnr- iety. j Costelio Jops lie Polls DUBLIN John Costello, 02-year-old former prime minister, has led his coalition to victory in the Irish republic, results from Tuesday's general election showed last night. Costello, who previously headed a coalition cabinet from 1948 to 1951, led his forces to victory over Prime Minister Eamon de Valera's Flanna Fall men of destiny. There was speculation that de Valera, 71 and now nearly blind, is nearlng the end of a remarkable political career. But the outgoing prime minister has given no indication of his plans. .V ....

Not so well known ls the man who takes his home chores to the office. Some men uppear at work with stubbly beards, then dodge into the washroom to shave. Because they ure in a hurry, or because they grow tired of trying to shave in a bathroom littered : with their wives' cosmetics, they ! keep an office ranor. I have heard about a promln- ' cut citizen who keeps an electric i raxor in his cur the kind of ! razor that plugs into an auto-mobile circuit and shaves as he drives to work. Since this j man's driving terrifies me even i when he has two hands on the wheel, I am glad I have never ! been around to see the perform- mice. An old-time newspaper man of my acquaintance used to keep ! his toothbrush in a favorite restaurant. That was logical I enough, since he ate most of his meals there. The toothbrush was a high tribute to the hospitably of the place. Home (to misquote an old proverb i is where the toothbrush ls. Another newspaper man some-limes came to the office after the paper had gone to bed, and went to bed himself. This happened when he was temporarily papers were kept, and covered himself with such thick, heat-preserving Journajs as the Toronto Telegram, the Montreal Gazette and . the New York Herald-Tribune. In that case It was possible to say truthfully that a newspaper provided blanket coverage. Some men who work In big machine-shops have been known to make or fix gadgets of ihelr own children's wagons, vacuum cleaners when work is slack. In machine-shops associated with the Royal Canadian Navy, such a project Is called a "rnb- j bit." The term rabbit In naval I slung also Indicates an Item of i government property scrounged for private use. j According to le;;end, the term , began thus: In the early days of a certain naval station, n man j undertook to bring home for his children one of the rabbits that swarmed on the grounds. He j caught one and was taking it out the gates In a box when a ! juard" Ordered him to open the! box, on suspicion that he was stealing something. I D' spite his protests, the guard i made him open It. Out jumped the rabbit and ran away. The man went back in and emerged a second time with the box 'I've gone to the trouble of catching another rabbit." he isahl. "Surely you're not going to make me open the box again." "Okay," said the guard. And ile man went on his way. But lnili limc nere was no rabbit, He had wickedly filled the box lth pounds of butter and legs hair looted from the mess kitchen. The storv is probably untrue. Whatever the origin of the term may be, though, some men work FOR THAT EXTRA -SPECIAL PRINT JOB CALL ON DI6B PRINTING COMPANY ...

But the "Emperor" does not issue iiis ringing cull for reinforcements from the battlelines near the front. He is thousands of miles away, in southern France, where the "Kmperor" fights thp war in Indo-China from the beaches of the French Kiviern. JUST BEFORE the second world i struggle, brought on by Hitler, cynical British regular officers used lo wirecrack: "Britain is thoroughly preparedfor the lust war." The same thing ls true today. We are now a part of the western alliance, led by the United States. The United States has the deadliest weapons that were ever held by any nation, in the entire history of the human race. But there are two great "catches" to the use of those weapons: The Russians have or soon : will have them too, and the cei- tain effect of their use by either side would be to wipe out mil-' lions of human belng.s on both sides. ' The kind of world struggle which is actually going on is not the kind of war In which the new bombs could be used in any event. THERE IS no reason to believe that a singie Red Russian or Red Chinese .soldier v.iil .cross international borders !n attacks such as made by Germany, Italy and Japan in the world wars. What Is crossing the border l an ideai and a form of organlza Hon which can change the whole balance of world power, without international war of a kind with which the U.S.A. or the UN Is equipped to deal.
