Lord Devonport, the British food. controller, suggests. that the Pritish people ration. themselves on the scale of 4 lbs. of bread, or 3 tbs. of flour for bread-making a week, 2 1-2 lbs. of meat and‘3-4 Ibs.: of sugar. The allowances. of meat.and bread are liberal compared to the ‘average Canadian consumption. Scidiers on _uctive service. are allowed 1 Ib. of bread a day, which is considered a generous, amount,. notwithstanding the Fact that they require more’ notrr- ishment than ‘a..civilian; on ‘account of their strenuous open air. life. Keep Minard’s Liniment in the house — Waste Is Now'a Crime Waste—whcther it consists.in/over- feeding or the throwing. away of “scraps"—is a crime against the State, the community and the indi- ‘vidual, wherever it be practised, in public or ‘private. If that ¢qnviction can be brought home to masters and mistresses, as well as to servants, we our cus fronts will not fail in profiting by the comparatively slight sacrifice re- quired from those living in: the se- curity of ‘these. islands.— London Daily Telegraph. : QUEEN’s| « UNIVERSITY "KINGSTON » ONTARIO . | ARTS : Duelling inthe Air . - Romance. of Old Pale Into “Insig- nificance Beside Deeds of - 7 Today = : This passage from a rrespond- rent's report ofthe air fehane on the British ‘front: is worth a little atention:_ fens The greatest fight yesterday, oddly enough, was.a drawn- battle. One of the British pilots met a brilliant Ger- man ‘flier and for a full-hour they manoeuvered in a. most ‘marvelous nianner without either being abléto bring his gun to bear on the. other. They rolled, ,Jooped, twisted, delib- erately stalled “their: ‘engines and, standing the-mid¢hines on their ‘tails, | slid backward through the air, but_all to no avail. It was probably ‘the most wondérful air duel- the war Has yet: seen. (The.

Bip apt The world has grown familia with the tales of air duels; but probably no one, unless he is himself an avia- tor, fully grasps the marvelous feats which are being done every day. The aeroplane has brought back the days when. knights “went out before. the armies to engage in single combat; but what are the deeds: of those old knights, which_have filled the pages of romance for centuries, compared with the duels of the: modern avia+ tors? What were the skillful horse- manship and swordmanship of the ‘ancient champions compared with the hunting of one another by .bird-men armed with machine guns, three miles or more. above the earth’s surface? The wildest imaginations of yester- day. never conceived anything equal to what is actualy. happening today.

The rea- son for this-is, of ‘colirse, the small home trade, the total population’ of the western provinces of . Canada Which are supplied from the Alberta fields being less than two millions. At the same time, Southern Albérta is within economic shippjng distance of a poptlation of. ever twenty mil- lions in the: United’ States, south of the international boundary, a market one hundred million . tons of coal annually, con- siderable of it Being of a pocr qual- coal is: of high-quality, practically. every variety, bituminous, anthracite and lignite varieties being mined. Last year nearly five million tons’ of coal lwere produced in Alberta, and it is ‘apparent that as the years go by the mining industry will, after agricul- ture, become: one _o: e. most. impor- tant in the province. The actual amount of the coal “deposits * have been -estimated at ‘from 50 to 90 bil- lion’ tons.
