Tomorrow, July 4, 1919, is the MHrdati niversary of the Riguing of the Declaration of ndependance. The significance of thol fact, to tnanv. is not materially crreatrr than thai of any of the recenl predecessors. To Othen it will mark the lirst National i-l. bration in a new era of peace. During the past i',w days America ban been greeted, thru its President, by th! Kings of England and Spain, and the Bin peror of .Japan, each of whom declared the signing of tlif peace treaty with its accom panying Constitution '. a League of Nation. the opening of a new daj in the historj i mankind. It is in the belief thai the league of na tions will be an efficient safeguard of tie peace of the world that these predictions are based. Not that the mere worrin of thi covenant will accomplish this result, bill . that the compelling of exchange of ideas, and view points prior to the commencement of warlike preparations or hostilities, will serve to clarify involved situation and bring about a raoorochemeni which will dissolve the bitter feelingi of contending ns t miis. Fond as these hopes are tllev will not he realised on the strength of the covenant alone. There must he a stronger tie. Tie nations signator) to the league must resolve, I as did John 11am k. Benjamin Franklin Thomas Jefferson and the other brave fatli crs of this country, when they signed tin; Declaration ot independence, "to haim to gether or hang separately." On the pur poseful determination to keen faith with each other, and to honestly submit their grievances and abide by the decisions ofi the constituted authorities will the nations of the world attain tile era of peace no folldljl desired, and for whieh all the world is loiij big. ; brief for Mr. Kelse . but wonld ask the pe pie of Ontario to manifest faith in the jud nient.

The Council has not hited Mr. Relaey for the job. No colli fact exists, tllo he h.is drawn up the specifications. The Council is now working on the cuiriuccrina nroblem. i ndeavoriug to secure terms etc. of nthi i engineers.
