davolad to public artyiee. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 20, IOCS rROGi.Kss or mi: com Tbis the time of the Imperial Conference Ii the open season fur is tic specula tlons on the part ol a bonicwhat small group ol American newspapers which persists In "seeing things" that arc not. Tne Imperial Conference In London is ing business at the tJiini oid Hand In th' ame old way. It has Ironed out the Pacific cable difficulty la business like faslilou, Bud that profitable investment In inter dominion Motherland communication or great value, starts off with still better prospects, under Increased facilities to be paid fur out of the prollts ol Its previous operntlous. The state of all British trade shows a healthy Increase as per the statistics submitted, and the conferees are now devising new ways ami means fur it" further progression in an amicable fashion, and, of course, with expectancy and hope of further marked results.

But "Hertzog?" exclaim the piiiH 'sslcatlon newspapers In jur neighbor's territory. However, General Hertzog is in conference with the other Dominion premiers, studying formulae of foreign relations and inter domlnlon relationships from the point of view of a previous declaration that South Africa's determination and further desire is to remain within the Empire, with all the Implications that that tie cislon Involves. He Is reported to have said words of qualifying nature. These words have reached South Africa; a message has been sent from there to London that, In such a case If that be so the people of South Africa any through other leaders, that there is not a majority homo support for the premier now in London. But It has not been made clear that Frontier llert sog said, or meant, what he is reported to have uttered and Implied.

Meanwhile the attitude of the watching folk of the Dominions, as we learn It and they are watching closely, we may be sure is onu of quiet confidence In tho personnel of thosa who participate In the conference deliberations. There Is no particular strain or stress perceptible In the utterances of the people or the press In Great Britain or tho Dominions. They are satisfied to let the result tell the story, and it, then, criticism ensues, it will be an tniormed utterance. The pro desslcation group of neighboring newspapers are clearly wasting tiieir effort In i dismal speculations and conjectures. Such, things do not Influence tho course of vents in London.

They do not even give rise to impatience In Canada; we are accustomed to It, we have outgrown paying attention to It. We know as the discriminating Indlanapo lis News put It, "The British Commonwealth of Nations Is a sign of strength, not weakness." And as the conference period of thin year has demonstrated, there is distinct pause In more or less aimless discussion of lesser details appertaining to Individual Dominion que tlons, and an appropriate concentration whltn may well be said to assume the form of silent strength, due to unanimity In essentials, as tha Dominions all round regard the Imperial Conference proceedings now going on In London. ASS1ST1M. THE COLLI ICTOItS Next week a large number of men and women will conduct a canvass for cash and subscriptions to this year's Federated Budget. This city wide solicitation Is a big job.

It takes men from their business and their professional work, and It lakes women from their household duties and other Interests. Under th best possible conditions It Imposes a considerable burden upon them, which la not the less trying because Is voluntarily assumed. The Federated Budget Is now generally recognised as not only ueslrable but necessary to our efficient administration of the social welfare work of a city of the size of Winnl peg. It makes philanthropy go farther and serve better than any other system of collect Ing and distributing funds, that has yet been tried. It puts welfare effort on a scientific basis without taking tho heart out of It.

It encourages people to contribute in the knowledge that all funds are strictly accounted, for and put to the best use. In order to lighten the burden upon the col lectors it Is desirable that prospective contributors should try to determine in advance tha amount of money they will subscribe to tha fund. There Is no reason why everyone should not have made up his or her mind as to tha approximate sum and conditions or pay ttefnrA thp collector call. If nvmnnn was thus prepared, much time aud trouble would ba saved to those who have undertaken tha canvass. Former subscribers should have little difficulty la determining what they should give.

Last year's objective, which was reached, was set at $310,00. This year, due to the lncluslou tf tha General Hospital among the Institutions to be helped by the Federated Budget, the ob THE WINNIPEG EVENING TRIBUNE, FJ.IDAY, OCTOBER 29, 3926 jective has been raised to $360,000, an Increase of about 16 percent. Some contributors may not be in a position to increase their donations this year; others may even be forced to reduce them; but returning prosperity should have placed turf majority in a position to do even better than last year. In any case everything possible should be done by the general public to slm plify tho work of collectors. It must ba re membered that those who are soliciting fundi for the Federated Budget are rendering a social service which Involves a sacrifice of time and energy which others of us generally are not called upon to make.

IIONOKING A nit.WK I'OK The London Times has published a letter from General Sir 11. L. Smith Dorrien, enclosing another letter received by him from Captain II. I'rlnslon, of South Africa, which should allay any doubts about South Africa's loyalty to the British Empire. Captain Prlnsloo is a sou of the gallant tic ncjal Priusloo, who was killed while fighting against Ceueral Smith Dorrlen's troops In the Boer War.

The circumstances under which his letter camo to bo written are of Interest, lie bad read General Smlth Dorrlcn's book on the Boer War, published last year, In which the lutter referred in gcnerouB terms to the bravery, patriotism and chivalry of the enemy under the late Genoral Prlnsloo's command, with particular reference to the fighting at Witkloop, In which General Prlnsloo personally led a charge on some British artillery, and In which he was killed. After the battle tho English genoral, not having heard of the Boer leader's death, sent him a letter in which he commented upon thu "fine, soldierly feeling" displayed by the Boers in that encounter. Captain Frlnsloo In his letter to Generul Smlth Dorrlen, rofers to tho Incident and adds: "The place where the fight took place Is, lndeeda memorable spot In our common hlstorytfand It seems natural that the old burghers under my father have now funned a commltteo'and are busy collecting funds to erect a small memorial In the honor of my father, and we have often thought that perhaps you and some of the old soldiers who fought with you. would like to contribute something towards this memorial. "It Is those men who fought one another with that 'fine, soldierly feeling' mentioned by you, who have since done so much to rebuild Africa, and to remove the short sighted barriers between Boer and llrlton." in concluding, Captain Prlnsloo puts his finger on what a German writer once de scribed as tho "mystery of the British Empire." He says: "It Is really strange that tho men who fought you tooth and nail and sacrificed their all In the Boer War, are tho meu, who, i after Bhaklng hands at the Peace Treaty, remained true to their plighted word, aud again fought side by stile with the Fnglish In the Great War.

myself, was the first volunteer iu my district for the. Great War, and remained In my commission until two years ago." Guneral Smlth Dorrien commends thu Prlns loo memorial fund to the men of his old com mand, and expresses the belief that! many would like to Join with htm in subscribing to wards the monument which It Is proposed to erect to a brave enemy leader. To the rest of us It Is. more than pleasing to learn, though most of us knew It already. of the fine spirit In which those who fought so bravely against the British In lSM lDOl, accepted the fortunes of war and took the earliest opportunity of themselves fighting for tho British Unpire, when her very existence was In danger.

MUiUYINt; IOH MONEY An lllluoi3 judge and two senators are preparing a bill armed against "gold digging brides." It Is proposed to abolish the payment to them of separation maintenance "Under the present law," argues the Judge, "a woman through maiuli nance can keep a chain round a man's neck and her hand Is his pocket, making him a virtual prisoner." Whether or not tho bill will pass, tha mere fact of Us being considered seriously Is a striking commentary on the state to which the marriage relation has fallen In some countries. If the situation Is as bad as the proposed legislation suggests It Is extremely doubtful If It taa be Improved by law. A gold digging bride does not become a bride until some man of his own free will picks her out from other women and asks her to marry him. If ho rushes Into it blindly he has only hlmielf to blame. Gold digging pro penalties have a way of cropping oet at ail times.

The niun of 50 who weds a lady cf the chorus must hold a very high opinion of himself if ha Imagines he is being married for himself alone. It Is safe to say that if a man used as much discrimination In choosing a wife as he does in buying an automobile he would be reasonably safe from the gold diggers. If marriage were regarded as seriously as it ought to be fewer Leabs would be led to the altar In the belief that they were Hachels. The man who marries under a momentary infatuation hardly deserves legal protection for his pockethonk If the affair turns out bauly. it is a law of nature that one must pay for one's follies.

In any case a law to abolish separation maintenance Is capable of being directed against other wives than the mere gold digger. The law of divorce is already sufficiently advan tageous to unscrupulous husbands without mak Ing it any easier for them to break the marriage tie without hurt to their bauk accounts. EESIJE CLAIIE years ago. I wj rather he was 1 man who was was MOYER In Ottawa some introduced to him, or Introduced to me as the on very Intimate termt with almost every prominent active Liberal, particularly the M.P.'s of the period, In Canada, was before this, of course, that he Joined the staff of the prime minister in a comparatively lowly capacity, Since then he has become an Influential figure in the capital as Premier King's private secretary, or in other worda confidential counseller. Clare Mnyer Is tho son of German parent! who lived In Gait, his father being a popular local schoolmaster.

There ho first saw the light of day on October 22, lts. He was educated at the local schools and after passing through the Gait Collegiate, went to Toronto University, where be graduated In with honors in political science. During his college days he had been onu of the editors of "Varsity," and the liking und capacity which he had developed for tho art of Journalism Induced him to take to It as a profession. He Joined the staff of the Toronto Star, the lure of the West captured him and he went to Iteglna to the Leadei staff. While working as a Journalist, ho also qualified as a lawyer.

Shortly after the outbreak of the. Great War he had succeeded In completing his appren ticeship, was called to the bar. But his legal career had to bo postponed until the threat of Prussianlsm was suppressed, and in 1916 he departed for the battlefields of Europe as a lieutenant in the lOSth Battalion. The war had also brought him a wife, for be had successfully wooed and married a Miss Flem Major Clare Moyer inK of RPgia, who had been playing h(r part in the great struggle as a V.A.I). His efficient regimental service was followed by promotion to the staff, and(ln 1910 ho was returned to Canada, sale and sound, with the rank of major and a well earned D.S.O..

In Uegina he began to practice as a lawyer, but In a short time he accepted a position In the provincial law department, headed by Attorney General Cross, who had served In France with him. It happened that his father had been a scliooi master of Mackenzie King, who had kept In touch with Mover's family. When Mr. King found himself In the premiership, after the election of 1921, bo needed more secretarial assistance and chose tho Iteglna man. Then the chlet secretary was Fred Macgregor, who Is now registrar in charge of tho administration of the Combines Act.

Moyer went to work as his assistant and put in long aud laborioes days la that service. He became versed In the lore and procedure of parliament, and acquired a thorough knowledge of the Inside working of politics. He was popular with the denizens of Parliament Hill, members, officials and newspaper men. So when Mr. Macgregor, In 191:5, had a breakdown In health, and after a long holiday accepted his present post as a less arduous occupation, the premier made Moyer his chief secretary.

It is a post which demands tact, shrewdness and industry, but the most necessary quality is tact, and of this Moyer has a goodly portion in his makeup. He Is always polite and agreeable, and even when he has to act, as he Is frequently compelled to do as a barrier against unwc Aomo Intruders who want to waste the Premier's time with absurd grievances or Impossible proposals, he usually manages to be rid of them in a contented frame of mind, convinced thai at lea. they have had courteous treatment. A competent secretary can do a tremendous lot to alleviat" lie burdens of a premier, and, although Mr. King's nature makes him averse to entrusting any responsibility to.

subordinates, he has learned more and more to trust to Meyer's judgment and discretion. Major Moyer Is in London, where he will have an opportunity of seeing at close quart ets the proceedings of an Imperial Conference. In stature, he Is of middle height, and In appearance wtll biiilr and well groomed, and his war years have left him with an alert soldierly bearing. He left many friends In Western Tanada Mr. Harris Turner, the blind soldier who served In the Saskatchewan Legislature, aud Is row one of the editors of tho Western Producer of Saskatchewan Is Mayor Meyer's brother in law.

HUNG of life's Uiab routine, people In all ages have found it helpful to set aside a certain day each year In which they could kick cold convention violently in the face and forget the existence of decorum.

Hich, In tho middle ages, was the use of a certain holiday known as the Feast of Fools. Part of the absurdities associated with this day was a burles'iue church service known as the Feast of til a Ass In which we are told: "The clergy went in procession to the west door of the church, where two canons received the ass, amid Joyous shouts, nd led It to the precentor's table. B.zarre vespers followed, sung falsetto, and consisting of a medley of extracts from ull the vespers of tho year. tween the lessons the ass was solemnly fed, and at the conclusion of the service was led by the precentor it Into the liiare before the church; water was poured on the precentors head, und the ass became the centre of burlesque ceremonies, dam Ins and buffoonery being carried on far Into the night." Needless to say there were many geed people who strongly disapproved of such nonsense. The ooly renson that the newspapers were not flooded with verbose epistles of protest signed "Old Subscriber." and "Conscientious Citizen," was that there were, unfortunately, none pub lished In those days.

Nevertheless there were many efforts made by authorities, both civil and eccle.il astltul, to have this hilarious fens wiped off the calendar, all of which were uniformly unsuccessful. Jusi how much so we can Jurtpe from a letter written In the year 1616. by one, Mathurln de Nure, who com plains bitterly of the monstroua fooleries perpetrnted at the monastery of the Cordeliers In Antilles. "Nno dl1 pngnna." ha wrllni, "Hoitmnlia with am aTtrnvaKanre their auparatltloua faatlvAla aa do thry tha lay brotht ra. tha rtlbtinga Mittaia, and thona who work In tha kittbtn occupy tha r'acaa or tha clarR In the rhuroh.

But friend Mathurln did hot see It as a natural result ot their Juird and joyless lives; be only saw the gross uncouthncss of it all and cried aloud for law and order. We will leave the esteemed M.

de Nure crying aloud, and turn to tho pagan festival Saturnalia ef ancient P.oine, from which the Feast of Foois Is directly traceable. This great feast In honor of Saturn, lasted seven days. The Itomnns, It must be admitted, adapted no half measures when It came to staging a holiday. This one lasted nevon days, niark FOR "THE LOVE OF MltVr ACT YOUR you, and the lst we moderns can do at least try hard.

Curing the festival of Saturnalia ail schools were closed, no war declared or battle fought, no punish ment of any kind was Inflicted, and all classes exchanged gifts, the most omnion being wax tapers and clay dolls.

In place of the usual toga an undress garment, known as a sythe sls, was worn. This being doubtless a precaution against practical Jokes of the unexpected and unwanted egg variety. Distinctions of rank were laid aside, slaves sat at table with their masters and were even waited on by them, and the utmost freedom of speech as allowed. I cannot resist repeating those sterling merits of Saturnalia; It was seven days In length, no punishment was inflicted, old clothes were worn, ranks were forgotten or, better still. reversed, and the utmost freedom of speech prevailed.

Put beside a holi day such as that, our own petty atempts to break the level monotony of the dally round appear a s. kindergarten drawings placed beside a Titian or a rtembrandt. 1 try to visualize such a holiday In Winnipeg. I try to fancy the general manager running countless envelopes across his reluctant tongue whlls the office boy sits in the ma hegany furnished sanctum and rings for peanuts an the latest eomis section. I endeavor to Imagine Miss Sniffy employing the utmost freedom of speech to tell Mr.

Dapper, the smooth shaven and highly scented sales manager, what he really thinks of him, starting with: "You conceited, empty headed, unmannerly anob and working through the whole list. Yes, I try hard to Imagine these th'ngs, but somehow my imagination is not equal to the task. And now, unwilling to tax the reader's patience any longer, I will come to the point ot these remarks, which Is: We must at all costs preserve the wayward spirit of Hallowe'en. It Is only a pale ghost of the robust holidays that the ancients enjoyed, but let us see that It does not vanish altogether. Hallowe'en is the only holiday remaining in which there Is a concerted effort to climb out of the narrow rut of our standardized, commercialized, sterilized existence, and obey the dictates of our own hearts.

I applaud the spirit which prompts bright eyed maidens to borrow their brothers' suits, I endorse the sentiment which lies behind the shrill voiced demand for Hallowe'en apples, and I claim kin rhip with those 'Who envelop, their persons In strange garments and declare themselves cowboys, courtier, or Chinamen, as their fancy may dictate. Let me urge the portly bank manager to hide bis uncompromising features behind a five cent mask and fare forth to steal his neighbor's gate so that it msjr grace the topmost arm of an adjacent telegraph pole. Lot me alsj urge his neighbor, the solemn vis aged solicitor, to be equally well disguised aisd lying In wait for just such a contingency with the garden hose all primed. Ferhnps we shall never make Hallowe'en the e'ltmt of Saturnalia or the Feast of Fools, but we can Prolong Life of Sheep Dr. Serge Voronoffi who enjoys a world wide reputation for graftirtat glands In order to prolong human life, and who has been attending some of the Sessions of the Assem bly of the League of Nations at Geneva, says In a local paper that he is experimenting to extend the life of shepp In order to Inrrense the wool production of the world, especially of Australia, the United States and Canada.

Dr. Voronoff declared that by his new system he had succeeded in Increasing the length of life after grafting among sheep, whose ordinary lease of life Is between 12 and 14 years. He said that by hts method their Uvea wera now prolonged to a minimum of 20 years, while elvlng more wool which considers a victory In the economic life of the world. In this connection he predicts that wool cloths and garments will fall In prtca In the near future. The sting of the tarantula has proved, on scientific Investigation, to be no worse than a bee sting, A New Edition of Lampman HT HIS fall, lovers of Canadian I literature should add to their libraries three excellent Volumes, selected collections of the best poems of Archibald Lampman, Dr.

William II. Drummond and Duncan Campbell Scott. The first book Is published by the Mus son Book Company, tho last two by McClelland and Stewart. These are three of our greatest poots. Dr.

Drummond is the most popular, partly owln? to the fact that many of his poems are humorous in subject matter and partly because they Interpret the life and character of the French Canadian habitant. As far as form and thought are concerned, however, both Iampman and Scott are superior to Drummond, In mastery of poetic style these poets are equal to the best that Canada has produced. I am Inclined to think that Lampman Is a deeper thinker than Scott. In some of his poems Bliss Carman is more tuneful than Lampman, but he also falls below him In content of thought. Lampman is generally conceded to be Canada's most Illustrious singer.

Duncan Campbell Scott, who was one of Lampinan's most intimate friends, and who some years ago wioie a biographical essay by way of Introduction to a complete edition of the poet's works, has also edited this collection, which he has entitled, "Lyrics of Earth." He has also written an Introduction to this book, In which he has given us Invaluable personal recollections of his friend, alto quotations from his letters which throw a clear light upon his attitude towards his art and other topics No student of Lampman's poetry can afford to Ignore this new material collected by Dr. Scott. A very interesting feature of the introduction is the information respecting the poet's ancestry. He came of United Fmpire Loyalist stock, but no less than six national strains met In his personality, French, Dutch, German, Swiss, Scotch ayid English. Dr Scott thinks his Celtic shyness and occassional melancholy should be charged up to his grandmothers, both of whom were Highland Scotch.

Many of Lampman's Dutch and German forefathers lived to be very old men, but the poet died at his borne In Ottawa on Feb. 10, 1899, at the early age of 38. He was in the Civil Ser vice, a clerk In the post office de partment, from 1883 until his death, One of the most pathetic things In Dr. SetHi's sketch of Lampman's life is a letter In which the poet CHEESE AS A MEAT SUBSTITUTE! I most households cheese Is used somewhat as a condiment or tid bit, and employed' chic fly for flavoring dishes, or to be eaten in small quantities with crackers or bread near the end of the meaL It is often used to flavor some principal dish at a meal, such as macaroni or spaghetti. In eplte of this popular usage, cheese should not be used with any kind of starchy food, but should always be considered a substitute for meat, and used only with those foods with which meat will combine properly.

Cheese should always be considered a very hearty food, and cannot be used advantageously by those who have a weak digestion. All cheeses are concentrated food, containing on an average of from 20 to 35 per cent, of casein, which Is digestible. similar to the protein found In meat. Cheese also contains from to 30 per cent, of fat. Fresh, homemade, cottage cheese, made from the whole milk Is the most whole some cheese, and contains about 20 per rent, of casein or.

rranK McCoy onIy little over four per cent, of fat. The small amount of fat contained in this kind of 'cheese makes It more The beat way to prepare this cheese at home Is to let a bottle of unpastuerlzed milk stand In a cooler or Ice box for 10 days to two weeks, which allows It to sour slowly. This soured milk sheuld then be taken out and put into a bowl and beaten with ch eec beater. After It la we.i beaten, place It In a cheese cloth, and hang It In the sun to dry. Under no circumstances should it be put upon the stove and cooked over a fire, or even heated, the way It Is usually nrenared.

No seasoning of any kind should be added, although salt Is usually added by the manufacturer, and this really detracts from Its di gestlblllty. The best way to use cheese la to make It the meat part of a meaL serving with ft plenty of green vegetables, both In the cooked and raw form. No starches should be con talned In this meaL Four ounces of this home made cheese will glva the body all the pro tein It needs for one day, with the posslbla addition of one egg for breakfast. It is not necessary to use any other kind of meat substi tute, as the body cannot use any more protein than that contained the caaclo of tha cheese, and If more seems to be dashing against the bars of caked routine, sighing for a fres life in which he could devote his whole time to literary work. What a pity that a man of his endowment had to cling to a poorly paid clerk ship for the necessities of life! Is I a letter written four years before i his death, Lampman says: "I Intent) I loHl.lv herein thA r'tiil Kpri'lraahnlit four years longer until I reach tha head of my class.

Then by hook or i crock I propose to get myself super annuated. If they will do that (and I think they owe It to me) and giva me all the advantages that the law al.ows, I can retire on a pension of (600 or (700. I shall go to some small Quiet country place and give myself up to poetry I can make a few hundreds a year by the pen, and thera Is no reason hy I should not ba comfortable, and above all free. It is freedom that I want. I am bound.

I am suffocated. If I had the geniua of Milton I could do nothing." One of my favorites among Lamp man's poems is tho following: AMOR VITAE I love the warm bare earth and all That works and dreams thereon; I love the seasons yet to fall I love the ages gone. a The valleys with the sheeted grain. The river's smiling might; The merry wind, the rustling rain, The vastness of the night. I love the morning's flame, the itcaa Where down the vapor clings; I love the clouds that float and sleep.

And every bird that sings. I love the purple shower that poura On far off fields at even; I love the pine wood dusk whosa floors Are like the courts of heaven. I love the heaven's azure span. The grass beneath my feet; I love the face of every man Whose thought Is swift and sweet, I let the wrangling world go by And like an idle breath, Its echoes and its phantoms fly! I care not Jot for death. Time like a titan bright and strong Spreads one enchanted gleam, Kach hojir is but a fluted song.

And life a lofty dream. Your Health By DR. FRANK McCOY prcteln Is used, the body will only be poisoned by It a It Is well to remember that cheese Is a very highly concentrated food, and. like all concentrated food, has a tendency to produce constipation. If used with plenty of greens this tend, ency will be overcome.

Most vegetarlnns are really Lacto vegetarians, and, though cheese is an animal product, or made from an anl. mal product, nevertheless, they flnrl if no meat or eggs are used that cheese furnishes all of the protein necessary for the building of cell structure, and few vegetarians try to get along without milk or cheese. The great economic merit of cheese rests In the much longer Ufa It gives to the use of milk, and making it valuable also as a perishable food. Many of the farming countries of Europe use this protein as the prin cipal nourishing part of their dally diet. DEFINITIONS What is falling In love? Getting out of your depth.
