JUVENILE EXHIBITS.
Dry-Farming Exposition to Arrange
a Section for the Juveniles.

Lethbridge, Alberta - Lieutenant
w. S. Simpson of Larchmount Farm.
Glenbryan, Saskatchewan, is an en-
thusiastic advocate of the juvenile sec
ton for a big agricultural convention.
Writing to John 7. Burns, secretary
treasurer of the International Dry
Farming Congress, Lieut.. Simpson ad-
vocates the setting apart of a special
program for the boys and girls, as
we'll as an exhibit section in the
great exposition to be held at Leth-
bridge October next.
"Such a Juvenile section" writes
Lieut. Simpson, "would interest the
rising generation, because the budding
minds dwell more upon life's greatest
misunderstanding. / would suggest
prize for the best 25 collective plants
of wheat the plants to be complete
including roots, foliage and head, to
be properly dried; also another prize
for oats under the same conditions
each to be for boys and girls under
Is years; and in addition prize for
the best collective exhibit grown by
and exhibited by boy or girl under
Is years of age.
The exposition committee. through
its chairman, ]. w. McNicol, announ-
ces that it is preparing to make sew
eral classes of exhibits for boys and
girls, including cereals, foliage, for
age and that these will be published

children of the same age. They were
in this country year ago and as they
have been under the constant charge
of James IL. Dunleavy, since they
were infants, English Is the only Ian
guage they speak
With them also Is their mother,
who is an intelligent Filipino woman,
2S years old Also their three broth
ers, who are normal children, aged
resectively 12 years, 8 years and Is
months are with them.
The boys are normal, except that
they are grown together at the spine.
About the only discomfort they suf-
fer is when one gets sleepy before the
other. At such times they engage in
lively arguments. and hair pulling,
kicking and scratching are in order.
AS the boys always stand back to
back their mode of locomoton is pc
culiar. II one of them wants to go
to one place and the other some 9TH
er place the one who makes the first
start wins. He merely bends for
ward, lifting the other off his feet
and walks away. This Is their way
of moving about. They either carry
or drag each other along.

One Reason Why the Fashionable
London Clubs Are in Financial
StraitS


London.-During the past few
weeks the committees of several Lon
don clubs have been trying to make
the best of very unpleasant balance
sheets.
The financial. position of nearly
half the best clubs has been going
from bad to worse for some time; in
fact, considerable portion of club
land is in a state of mild panic. Even
the remedy of lowering the height of
the barrier of exclusiveness which
many COMMITTEES have had to adopt,
has not got them out of their diff
culties.
"Clubs are suffering from two
changes in fashion," a reporter was
informed by a gentleman who has had
wide experience of West End clubs.
Twenty years ago many a man
about town could boast that it was
not possible for him to walk more
than three hundred yards within a
certain area of the West End with
out coming to a club of which he
was a member.
at is no longer fashionable to be-
long to three or four clubs. There
are outlets for expenditure in other
directions.

BRITISH NAVY ON WANE; TIE
UP TO U. s. SAYS PEER
Power of Anglo-SaxOn Race Is World
Problem, Says Sir Gilbert Parker.

London.-Sir Gilbert Parker, NJ. p,
in an interview in the Budget" re-
specting the significance of the visit
of Premier Borden and other Cana
dian ministers to England at the pres
ent time and what was likely to come
of it, said:
NO embassy in the long history OF
nations had ever so great concern or
a greater consequence. The problem
of the twentieth century is whether
the position of the Anglo-Saxon shall
be altered in the comfy of nations
and whether, in any readjustment of
national power and territorial aggre-
cation, the people of the Anglo Saxon
world shall continue to be in the same
ratio of power to the whole.
1T is Indispensable for the welfare
of civilization that we of the British
Empire shall succeed in holding to-
gether our scattered dominions.
THE various people of the British
Empire represent in their influence
certain we'll defined characteristics
and these are all in line with progress
We are neither the most intellectual
nor the most scientific race in the
world, but if we are permitted to in
clude the United States in our bond
of civilization we are the most prac-
tical, inventive and progressive Sec
ton of the houman race"
Sir Gilbert also pointed to the great
strides socialism has made in Eng
land. He was asked;
What has all this to do with the
visit of Borden and his colleagues tc
England?"
only this" he answered. 1.-THE
British empire has been held together
by naval power Joined to the individu.
al loyalty of each portion of the en-
pire. For generations the supremacy
OF England was never questioned; the
twentieth century sees this supremacy
challenged and naval power is the
first problem to be solved if the Brit
ish empire is to remain intact.
IF the naval problem can be solv.
ed so far as Canada and her share In
the naval defense is concerned. the
whole question of the union of the
British empire can be settled once
for all. Canada has racial difficulties
which happily have been growing
less from year to year. but If a nava
! policy can be produced which will
have the assent of both the English
and the French in Canada, the way
will open out for the vast confedera.
ton of cooperating interests. which
will preserve for the British race the
same ratio of strength to the strength
of the world, the same element OF
progress in the movements of the
world that the United Kingdom hat
with the rest of the world at the be
ginning of the twentieth century.
Il see a greater federation still
than the federation of the British EN-.
pire; it is the federation of all Engisl
speaking peoples"
