He declared that Canada's future prosperity de pended upon successful encour agement p of immigration more than upon almost any . other fac tor. The Canadian Pacific's special interest in immigration is ob vious. Vast areas of sparsely settled territory, capable of great productivity, stretch along its line. Its own direct interest in land is very great. In land sell ing, in irrigation and in placing colonists, the company since it's - : T . , (Los Angeles Times) Gifford Pinchot's victory in the Republican primaries in Pennsylvania has caused some rejoicing in circles that were formerly Progressive and some consternation. Pinchpt was one of those who fought at Armageddon; but for the last six years he has been enrolled in the regular Republican ranks. : r. Following Beveridge's success in Indiana, the advent of Pinchot has set political tongues wagging. While neither of the two is an antiadministration man. they both lack what is commonly termed party regularity. The split in the party of 1912 has been healed, with the millions who. voted for Roosevelt back in the Republican ranks, and it is but natural that their influence should be felt in Republican primaries. As far as national politics is concerned the results in ' Pennsylvania and Indiana are very discouraging for the Dem ocratic leaders. They have been charging that the Republi can party is hopelessly reactionary, that it is wholly under boss domination and that the Democratic party offers the only hope for" escape from tyrannical partisan rule. But their argument flattens out like a bullet against a rock when con- enemies have never charged with being reactionary. The election prove at least that the. Republican party is ; not static, that it is representative of the whole membership and not of a few leaders or bosses. With the passing of Knox and renrose in Pennsylvania the regular Kepublican organization was left without a leaderT Three or four lieu tenants were fighting for the supreme command, and it was against this divided house that Pinchot, who has always been popular in the country districts, scored a victory. The election is without national significance, because the two Senatorial nominees are regular Republicans and will work in perfect harmony with the Harding administration. Pinchot's running mate for the Senate was badly beaten. Raymond G. Carroll, Washington correspondent for a group of former Progressive newspapers, wires that "Already there is talk of the mantle of Roosevelt having at length fall en Upon an heir after the Bull Moose chieftain's own heart." It would be interesting to know the comment of the senior Senator from California on reading that .sentiment. It re calls the remark of Montaigne that "when two. men ride an ass one must sit behind." ( T . If the Roosevelt mantle has finally fallen on one of Roose velt's' choice, where has it been for the last six years? Has it been, used as a mask by some impostor? If Pinchot, is to be the recognized leader of the former Progressive forces possibly their candidate for the Republican nomination for President uvl924 what is to become of the political ambi tions of Senator Johnson? Has he been definitely discarded by those from whom he was supposed to draw his chief sup- wholly responsive to the will of the electorate. If Pinchot's victory means the elimination of Johnson, all good R&publi cans have reason to rejoice. For both Pinchot and Beveridge are assets to the Republican party, while Johnson is a liability. . ... DELAY, NOT HASTE, "INDECENT" Democratic leaders are now accusing the Republican ma jority in Congress of "indecent haste" in pressing the pass age of a protective tariff law. It has been nineteen months since the American people voted into power a party pledged to repeal the existing Democratic tariff law, which has brought unemployment to millions. If the Democratic poli ticians would accuse Congress of "indecent delay" in com plying with that mandate the charge would have a better chance of sticking. The filibuster now being conducted by Senate Democrats against carrying out the expressed wish of the American people in the enactment of a tariff law is one of the most discreditable in all the history of Congress, viewpoint The voters of this country will have opportunity to express their disapproval of such efforts to thwart the will of the people, at the polls in November. port? It will be interesting to observe what sort of per-' formance he will give as player of the second violin. If the comments from Washington are founded on fact, it looks very much as though the California Senator has been reduced to the ranks. As long as the former Progressives give loyal support to the candidates who win in the Republican primaries there is no reason for any Republican to be disturbed by the oc casional party triumph of one of their number. To be rep resentative the Republican party must be the voice of jts combined elements. There is no desire either to ostracize or to humiliate any of the former Progressive leaders, so long as their loyalty is above suspicion. Anfi neither Pinchot nor Beveridge has been guilty of the treachery displayed by Johnson in 1916. Such campaigns as those in Pennsyl vania and Indiana do not indicate that the Republican party is weakening or breaking up into factions, but that it is j incorporation has expended some $G8,ouu,;uu. upon its own land alone it has placed 54,000 settlers. Hut this is far from enough. Hun dreds of thousands of newcomers must be there if the productive possibilities of the unoccupied territory are to be fully utilized. While this latest appeal for im migrants is to be nominally cos mopolitan in scope, naturally there is a choice involved. Immi grants from Great Britain are especially desired. Danes, Swedes, Norwegians, Austrians, Hungari ans and Germans have gone to Canada and made good. All these nationalities are heartily invited. But most desirable of all newcomers, from the Canadian are those from across the country's southern border. The welcoming hand has been extended for years to Americans, and many Americans have sought homes in Canada. In the fiscal year ended June 30, 1921, more than 100.000 per sons officially described as emi grants left the United States How many of these went to Can ada is uncertain. The records show that many American farmers who go over the border to settle do not remain there. A fair per- centage do stick, however, some retaining their American citizen ship and some becoming British subjects. Yet the movement as a whole never became formidable It settled down to a migratory swaying to and fro that left no deep impression on either side of the line. With this latest Canadian ef fort to induce immigration, thera will be cordial sympathy on this side of the line. Canada's pros perity and our own are so closely linked together that whatever promotes the one must in the end promote the other. , food from the earth for ages, bat we do not know what the soil is nor, with all our science, do wo understand what it is that makes plants grow and animals thiive.

CANADA SEEKS IMMIGRANTS (New York Herald, May 11) With an area of 3,600,000 square miles, Canada has a pop ulation of 10,000,000, which . is slightly under the population of the State of New York, with its 47,000 square miles. While the United States is restricting immi gration, Canada is. seeking it.

Or you might have about the house an old buckram frame that can be trim med to the shape shown in the-illustration. Besides the frame, you need one fold of crepe paper and three and a half yards of picot ribbon. ':' . ?

Fold this piece through the -eenter, as In figure I, and, start ing at the back of the frame, stretch it ever' and ' under the brim. Sew these edges In firmly (see figure 8). t: I .-J ' -A pretty J finish may be! made for this hat by sewing around the edge of the brim with a heavy silk thread in the shade you wish to trim the hat. A blanket stitch may be used. . To make' the crown, cut strips two Inches wide and fold in the center. In order to cut the strips straight, use the edge of the fold er for a guide and cut through the whole fold at once. Finishing the Crown ' Starting at the bottom of the crown and allowing each fold to J overlap the preceding one; sew the strips with a long darning, stitch to the' buckram shape, exactly as shown in figure 3. Use the same thread as used in decorating the edge of the brim. - In order to splice a strip, slip one fold inside of the other. , i Having finished the brim' and the crown, stitch' them firmly to gether with a heavy thread. The place - where they are joined to gether is covered by the picot rib bon, which is looped up into a bow in the .back, with the loops and ends falling - down over the brim to form streamers. Before putting on the ribbon, however, you should coat the hat with liquid varnish r as check or crystaline, if you wish to be sure that your hat will last a long time. However,' that is not necessary, for if you have drawn the crepe paper on snugly and sewed it firmly, you will find that your paper hat is far from being as fragile as it looks. Color Combinations The hat from which the illus tration was made is of white crepe paper with French blue ribbon and stitching to match. It would also be very pretty made up In apricot colored crepe stitched in brown. or made i ntwo shades of brown.
