Fortunately it is minority which
is engaged in the most absorbing bus
mess in the world, for this business
brings IN the largest returns. Unfor-
tunately, the profits of these returns
are wreaked on non-investors as well
as the owners. The business is self
perpetuating, and spreads out like a
hOneycomb. 1t sucks in dross, and
by this time you probably think the
world should be rich-it turns out
only dross. Now you will understand
the Inconsistencies, for it is the Bust

"The day of women is come" is not
really as startling proclamation as
sounds. True, there has been great
deal of the blowing Of horns and some
real victory but not little camou-
tlage remains, not so much in the &C.
onomic as in the political independ
ence of women. Does every woman
takea special interest in politics aside
from her husband S or fathers views
IN the matter, ora possible ride l.,
the polls inthe incest automobile with
the political part thrown inY We can
not say that she does. This is, in a
way, 0verdrawn. but it indicates the
truth that the majority of women are
not yet fully awake ned, but are led a.
long 10y the minority of their enterpri-
sing sisters. The example of these
few ought to encourage every woman
20 develop her intellect, not with
view tooutstripping masculine merits,
but to spread true thought emancipa-
ton.

A town can suffer with aspiring few
era as well as a person. The most com.
mon disease is Trampitis, yet some
towns are immune. That is because,
with the first symptoms, which usual
ly locate amid a pile of tin cans and
a stone CRATE down by tie river, the
town refuses to be exposed. II it
comes in contact with the infection,
it never feeds 1t, but offers to cure it
Witha little hard work. Strange to
say, the disease can not stand this
treatment, aud seldom ever survives
"a diet of bread and waterin close con
finement for more than day or two.
SO it's easy for a town to avoid this
epidemic, if it will only refuse to en-
courage at the back door what it will
not receive at the front door.

tors of the Community Association
held last Monday night 1t was decid-
ed to postpone the kermis, which
was to have been held in the high

that in view of the fact 'that the hol-
idays are so near, that the Red Cross
drive is being carried on and so
many other vents of importance
are happening at this time. 1t would
be wisest to stop all work that had
been begun and postpone the kermis
for the time being. However. the or
CARNATIONS and societies which have
been doing such splendid work and
cooperating to make this event an
enormous success. are k to keep
it in mind and be ready to assist the
board when the date for the kermis
