not 30 half Of the laughter would be
lost from life. This is about the fun
NEST thing that has happened in
world politics, however, since a French
danseuse lost the king of Portugal his
throne.
Aside from the merits or dement's
Of reciprocity, 1t is hardly possible
that many hard headed Canadian
farmers and business men can be
made to swallow the annexation thing.
We sincerely hope not, for to do
sc would inevitably create a preju-
dice in their minds against us which
we do not deserve and which, of
course, has not the slightest founda-
ton on which to rest. There has al
ways been the best of feeling between
the two countries, and it would be
unfortunate If anything so silly should
mar, even for a moment, this mutual
good will.

1t is possible that the law which com-
pels automobile owners to secure a
state license and number, will prove Of
double value to the state, The inten-
ton of the law was to secure a fund for
road improvements and that the mum
bers of machines might identify automo-
biles causing injuries to persons and
property on the road. Now comes the
report from Bismarck that the number
of automobile tags has passed 1000, and
it is expected that the assessors books
next year will finds more automobils
listed for taxation than has been the
case in the past. A list of automobiles
holding tags can easily be secured by
county officials and thus any forgetful
owner may be reminded of the existence
of his machine and the necessity of pay
ing taxes thereon.

The New Bird Woman.

When women took up flying they
achieved a point which perhaps these
pioneers of flying did not have in mind
that nowadays a woman may at
tempt almost anything and win ap-
plause if she can do it well.
One has heard much Of the jealousy
with which man guarded his own par
ticular fields, but as yet nothing has
been heard of the endeavors of air men
to harass OR hinder the aspiring air
woman.
While not half a dozen women III
this country have as yet qualified as
practical aeronauts, there are scores
Of others who understand more or less
Of aviation and have handled an air.
ship with more or less success. The
statement of a woman aeronaut that
it is as easy to learn to handle a fly
ing machine as to run an automobile
is sweet encouragement to those Of her
OCA WIN udtC luc COuluSc uuu luCllQu-
ton to follow her example, yet lack
the self confidence.
The fact that women have mastered
the art Of flying just as easily as their
male competitors also disposes Of that
carefully fostered delusion that women
have no aptitude for mechanics. Wo-
men have learned to handle boats, to
run automobiles, and with each adj
vance into the world Of sport have
commanded the increasing respect Of
men. Woman's advent into the dan
gerous and novel field of flying has
been encouraged rather than frowned
upon. 1t has forever disposed of the
notion that men-me who are worth
while-have anything but good will
and generous appreciation for the wo-
man who can make good in worthy
lines Of endeavor.

The Annexation Bugaboo.

Occasionally there is something de-
lightfully humorous in politics. There
was Senator Bailey's serious assertion
that nearly everybody disagreed with
him and they were all wrong. This is
not a marker, however, to the humors
of the Canadian reciprocity campaign.
The manner in which the conserva-
tives have dressed up an annexation
scarecrow and tried to make people
think 1t was alive is so funny it Is
hard to e how 1t escaped ven the
