Canada'g financial position is ex-
cellent. All speculation has been elm
mated, and trading is done On a cash
basis, with restricted credit.
Detailed figures OF Canada's trade
for twelve months ending October 81
show how the var is forcing Canadian
trade into new channels. One Of the
most extraordinary changes is in COM
MERGE with the United States. A
couple Of years ago Canada imported
from the United States two or three
hundred million dollars worth Of
goods more than she exported. The
balance Of trade was all with the
United States. The balance is rapid
" disappearing. and the present out
look is that by the end Of this year
Canada viii have exported TO the
United States more than she has i'm
ported.
The figures for the past four years
are Illuminating. They are as fol-
loyys.

Faculty Report Adjusted.


Without the appearance of any
controversy whatever, the differ
ences between the state board OF
education and the university authori-
ties, arising out of the proposal by the
former to adopt certain forms for re-

CLOSED over at the meeting Of the
board of education and an agreement
was arrived at.
Each side of the controversy yielded
points as to the details and what prom
ised to be a source of considerable an
noyance vanished This was brought
about by the adoption of a resolution
which provided that instead of being
required to report the number of hours
devoted to the various classes of work,
teaching, preparation, research, extern

vided in the form of percentages, thus

UNIVERSITY CADETS
TO PUT ON BATTLE
viii Be Attacked by ''Foe" From
Middleton.
ANNUAL INSPECTION MAY 8
Much Special Work Is Being Under
taken by the Military Department
OF the State Institution Under
Lieutenant Wrightson.

AladisOn.-A battle maneuyer involy-
ing an attack on university buildings
by hostile force advancing from
Middleton, is the main feature Of the
annual inspection Of the military corps
of the University OF Wisconsin which
VIII be made en May By Mai Mon
roe Mcfarland OF the general stan OF
the United States army.
In preparation for this inspection.
much special work is being underta-
ken by the military department. ana
Lieut.. P. G. Wrightson. the command,
ant Of the university corps. has pre-
pared an extensive program OF events
to be exhibited before the inspecting
officer.
Retirement under FIRE IS the prob
lem TO be worked out in the maneuver
this year. and its main features are be-
cadet corps. Companies stationed at
Madison and al Middleton. six and
half miles apart, win represent the
hostile troops.
The military situation supposed in
the maneuYer is that the Middleton
forces have been steadily advancing.
but have been compelled to halt at
Eagle Heights, point three and
half miles from the university, 70 wait
for re-enfcrcements. The Madison
forces have been sent out as far as
the marsh two miles from the enemy
to resist attack and to hold their posi-
ton as long as they can while the
trenches on the hill back of University
hall are being constructed. They place
their outposts and go into temporary
camp The Middleton forces having
received their endorsements, continue
to advance, but are halted by machine
guns The commanding officer sends
a hanking column around the Madison
forces, and causes them to retire
The task of retiring from their orig
inal position under fire and narrowing
from the wide front on the marsh to a
narrow one near the university build
ings is the problem the Madison
troops must work out. The narrowing
o. the attack is the problem for the
Middleton forces to work through.
Much interest is being shown this
year by the student corps in the regu-
lar military tactics which they are
practicing now for the inspection in
May Since the university cadet corps
won a place on the accredited list Of
such organizations as one of the ten
for the work has greatly increased. AS
a result, both freshman and sophie
more companies are doing more ad-
vanced work than the same classes
took up last year. Map problems, con-
sisting in the location of an imaginary
enemy and the solution OF the prob
lem OF accommodating the hostile camp,
are being studied by the sophomore
men this year for the first time.

THEATRE
NOTES AND COMMENT


Under this heading, beginning
with the next issue. we shall en-
deavor to follow the shows at the
Lyric, and TO the best of our abil-
ity, review them in as few words
as possible and in an impartial
manner. We realize that there
are some people who do not attend
the shows, for some one reason or
another, and the editor of
The Eagle, with the desire
to attempt to please a. nearly
all the people as possible and for
the benefit Of those who do not
attend, has added this department
TO his already pleasing sheet, and
secured yoars truly to edit same.
Editor Price adopted this methol
so in the event anything un-
pleasant should by oversight ap-
pear in this department he could
shift the bhme to the writer of
these few Ines; but if, on the
contrary, tie readers should ap-
prove of ths contents Of this same
department he is perfectly willing
to accept tie praise.
Another thing. Manager Tool
is putting ever some good shows,
and is constantly on the outlook
for the very best productions for
his patrons. We believe in be-
slowing prise where praise is
due, and fed that Manager Tool
deserves some publicity through
the columns of The Eagle.
We do no, expect to startIe the
community ~ anything brilliant
or witty we might say; nor do we
ask any one 10 expect from this
new departure the equal of that
to be found IN the city dailies-
we expect oily, as stated above,
merely to review in as few words
as possible, he shows at the Lyric,
and to MAKE this department as
readable ano interesting as we
can.
