confer degrees on women within a generation. Canadian women under graduates are conscientious and hard working The majority seek a uni yersity degree to help them in earn ing living. Women graduates either teach or marry, and they frequently marry men who have been their classmates.
 Eighty-fiVe per cent. of those teach ing in the Province of Ontario are women. The country owes an enor- nous debt to its women teachers for the ideals they have sought to teach Canadian children. Miss Sarah Max well, whose name became in a day one of the most dearly loved in the annals of Canada, was a teacher in a Montreal school who lost her life because she would not leave the chil- dren whom she could not save. Many Canadian women teachers would act with the same heroism under like circumstances
 Women's Clubs.
 Women's Canadian Clubs and the organization known as the Daughters of the Empire are patriotic societies which are immensely successful in Canada Given the opportunity to show what is in her heart, and the most reserved Canadian woman will show herself to be a passionate lover of her country She is an ardent sup porter of the union within the Elm pire. In municipal elections women who are ratepayers have votes, and in questions affecting public health and social betterment they have on occasions made their influence pow erfully felt.
 One of the finest movements among Canadian women is known as the Women's Institute. It's object is to pedients which will tighten the work of women on the farm, and to en- courage social intercourse.
 Boating, swimming and camping in summer; skating, skiing, and snow shoeing in the winter touch the cheek of the Canadian girl with a glow like the sunset. She is frank and simple, high-spirited and good com rade, yet sufficiently woman to possess the charm of mystery and un- eXpectedness. In all likelihood she may be the great-grandchild of some ng-hearted English or Highland woman who came to Canada four generations ago and carded with her own hands the wool to make her sons homespun clothes. If the girl is university graduate, or rich enough to drive her own motor, or a happy wife in a beautiful Canadian home, or a physician, artist, or sci enlist making a name renowned be yond Canada, she knows very well that she owes much of all that she has today to the little old woman who left the home of her heart and came across the sea to Canada. And still today in Canada the pioneer woman, with dreams in her heart, is forgetting herself for the sake of her children-London Times.

that five Democrats voted against the
increase in salaries, 19 of the 80
Democratic members voted for the
bill and Is Democratic members were

BRYAN TO CONTINUE FIGHT
Calls for Nomination Of County OPP
ton Candidates for Legislature

ton Candidates for Legislature
Lincoln. Neb, July 29.-William J.
Bryan will continue the contest for
county option and the initiative and
referendum. In statement issued
yesterday he says.
while the failure Of the democratic
convention to indorse county option
was disappointing, still the fight for
county option in the democratic party
has not been in vain. In the first
place, Il has helped 10 secure a decla-
ration in favor of the initiative and
referendum In both parties and now
that all parties have declared for It,
there is no doubt Of the necessary
amendment being submitted at the
next session Of the Legislature.
The work now to be done is to Sc
cure county option candidates in
every Senatorial and representative
district. The democrats who favor
county. option should turn out at the
primaries and nominate a candidate
favorable to county option. The re-
publicans in favor of county option
should be as active in securing the
nomination Of republican candidates
favorable to county option County
option candidates should be nominated
by all parties in each district, and |
have no doubt that this can be done
In great many districts"

produced. not excepting Bascom or Mof-
fat Father Taylor came 1t was the
glorious month of August, the fat year
1855. There was an INN .ense concourse
al Beech Grove, and the meeting" was
outside the church. Father Taylor was
at his best and the 1860 folk then and
there present were simply entranced.
When the minister completed a most elo-
quent climax, Slant Buckner rose from
his seat, his face aglow with an ecstasy
of enthusiasm, and marched across the
altar, pointing his finger and exclaim-
ing:
Now, what do you Cd id Baptists

Shoestring Bill Keen now?'
1t was not blasphemy; it was not pro-
family. The man was perfectly uncon-
scious of the fact that his language was
not perfectly correct. 1t was inspiration
1t was genius.
A large crowd, at least 30, went to
Buckner's for dinner that day. The
weather was fearfuly warm and the din
ner sumptuous. There was fried chicken

Probably no other combination would
since the Russian-Japanese war set all
Asa's youth to dreaming dreams and
plotting sedition, have prevented a new
minting in India. But the lessons of the
ancient humiliation In 1916 and of that
other agony, so brief and yet so keen,
when India ran red blood that cried for
blood in 1888, have sunk into the very
substance of the empire.
Ali this Is of course political truism.
It's classical illustration is the unification
of South Africa. Within few months
of the close of one of the most insolent
and costly wars ever waged, when the
empire itself had shivered with misery

ablest generals was being appointed to

certain statutes which disqualified nom
conformists from holding civil offices.
He received the delegation with great
civility, and hearing them out, answered;

Perhaps that was profanity, but it was
emphasis. This man. the very expertest

perhaps the most dignified speech the

was the equal of the proudest lord he
looked down upon.
But nobody would let Thurlow go with
out relation of his method, when lord
chancellor with George III. 1t was the
duty and the custom for the chancellor
to take acts of parliament to the King
for consent 1t was a mere formality,
for no prince of the House of Bruins
wick ever dared to use the veto. Thurlow
would come with his arms full of docu-
ments as long and as broad as those
butchers bills the lively Maid of Honor
talks about in the Suffolk Papers"
Thurlow would open and begin to read,
and after five minutes he would say to
the King: "Oh hell you haven't got
sense enough to understand it, sign your
