We were joined by k crhiple, a lawyer and his handsome wife from Victoria they knew And they distinctly had the English rather than the Canadian manner if yon know what we mean. This was particularly true of the wife. It is really very interesting English people of the upper-middle professional class, fairly exude an air of smug self satisfaction nnd superiority, that is either exceed ingly irritating or very amusing, depending upon one's point of view. As stated the couple from captain and had apparently crossed with him (this is beginning to sound like an oceon voyage) quite familiarly yet, it was unmistakable to an observer, that they considered themselves several notches, in fact a great many above him, and were (quite unconsciously) BEHAVING that way.

(In fact one might make a good case for the affirma- tivcif an argument that it isn't Well as above stated Victoria trifle more touristy perhaps, which is a pity. As the boat came sliding into the hnrlior, a bugle sounded from the hhore. as a cheery greeting; and when the craft docked, a couple of bcotch lassies appeared at the upper dock platform, and played a stirring Scotch air, on bagpipes, passing out Victoria tourist folders as the passengers filed looked bonny in their bright mixed with Dixio, Scotch pipes, human thrill, yet somehow such an obvious play for the tourist trade WAS a disappointment to yours truly We spent one entire summer at Cadboro Beach, near here, and have visited often the past 25 years, and the supreme indifference of Vic torians, wag nlways one of its great charms. They didn't seem to care whether any tourists came or not, they went on their way as usual, played thoir golf, and hod their tea, they hunted and they fished, nnd therefore no place attracted the discrimi nating Americnn tourist quite so much. We wouldn't say that quality has entirely gone, but judging by appearances thus far, Victoria has come to appreciate the tourist trade today and is determined to cultivate it. However at that, this is undoubtedly one of the most "English" places on the western hemisphere, and probably when "Down in the states" we have accepted the results of the revolution and become adjusted to the dictatorship of the proletariat we can still take a boat for Victoria and presto return to the "good old days", the mellow comfortable com placent Victorian days, where one has ease and tranquility and no doubts whatever that-God's in his Heaven, a very weil ordered Heaven, and all's right with the well the ENGLISH speaking and the ENGLISH mn line red world I R.

PROSPECTIVE FATHER IS Conventional stories or plays Tea turlng childbirth generally give the expectant father a serio-comic role If he Is to appear In the picture at all. Such a role may suit some near-fathers well enough perhaps they are anxious to effaoe them selves until It becomes manifest whether the baby has a transmis sible dlseam. It Is not at all the role a good and true father ac cepts. He Just naturally has a greater personal In terest In the case than that. Not that any prospective father should attempt to remain In the delivery room, especially If he Is not familiar with such surround ings. But the young man looking forward tn the birth of his baby should by all means accompany his wife at least on some of her regu lar visits to the doctor for instruc tion and advice throughout the dura tion of pregnancy; his place Is by her side; his responsibility and con cern are precisely the same as hers It is only natural that the pros pective father should wish to pro vide every possible means of saving suffering In childbirth.' In this de sire he receives a good deal of en couragement nowadays, what with tho numerous methods of anesthesia or amnesia, such as "twilight sleep." so freely offered and so heartily com mended by patients who survive. Aside from the long established good repute of ether by the open drop method for obstetric anesthesia we shall not give any preference here. Scopolamine -morphine by hypodermic Injection ("twilight sleep") Is ex cellent as the agent of amnesia (for getfulness, Indifference) for the mother, but In many cases Its effect on the child Is serious or fatal. For Instance, Dr. W. w. Bell recently reported his experience first with 225 cases In which scopolamine was used, then In 316 cases In which pentobarbital sodium was used. Scop olamine produced a desirable degree of amnesia (forgetfulness) and anal gesia (painlessness), but Its cumu lative effect on the respiratory cen-1 Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS THIB sometimes cynical writer finds himself Intrigued by this paragraph from The Dallea Chronicle: "Tomatoes were priced at tl.25 to ai.so per box on the Portland wholeaale market yeaterday. Last year, at thla time, growers were fortunate to get 50 cents a box, and 30 centa waa a more com mon figure." ' AHAI" (we aald, when our eyea lighted on that cheerful re port) "Here ta PROSPERITY! Not proaperlty around the corner, but RIGHT HERE, In our laps. Maybe the agricultural depres sion la over." SO WE read further, seeking to ant up In prlcea. Here la what wo found: "The reason for the ahortage fand the higher price) Ilea In blight, a more or leaa mysterious malady that wlthera tomato vinea and makea the fruit unfit for conaumptlon. One can drive through the garden district around The Dallea and see .to mato patches In which 80 psr cent of the vines have been withered by blight. Many grow era have abandoned their patchea." CO IT'S blight, eh. that'a reapon J slble for this Inspiring lift tn the price of tomatoes? Carry the news to Secretary Wal lace I Maybe he can get hla sclent, lata busy and develop a blight that will work on corn and wheat and cotton and rice and potatoes and tree frulta on EVERYTHING that grows out of the ground. If he can find aueh a blight (and protect It against the wicked schemers who would seek to control It) he can send prices of all these commodities kiting skyward. At nrst blush. It looks as If they've got something up there on the Co lumbia. Maybe It's the mlllenlum. and not Just prosperity, that'a arounl the corner. IT v.s thua that our thoughta ran. enthusiastically, as our eves raced along tlie lines on the printed page. But. Just aa w were getting up a real glow, w lighted upon this shocking atatement: "All ot which 11135 to 1150 per box) would be fine, except for the fact that Dallea produce growers HAVE VERY FEW TO MATOES" CHUCKS! Now isn't that a ahame? And Just as the mlllenlum wss practically staring us In the fsce. It follows, of course, that If th poor devils of truck growers HAVk VERY FEW TOMATOES It doMn't . MORE THAN BACKGROUND ter of the Infant so often resulted in fetal asphyxia that be did not feel Justified In continuing Its use. His experience convinced him that pentobarbital sodium (a barbiturate allied to amytal) Is not only as effective as scopolamine but la far safer for mother and child. Of course Lnelther pentobarbital nor phenobar bital sodium can be safely used with out medical supervision. I think the world would be none the worse If all the numerous barbituric acid compounds were discarded from medi cine. For analgesia in childbirth ether by the open drop method, to the obstetric, not the surgical degree of anesthesia, Is safe for mother and child and perfectly satisfactory when skillfully administered.
