She demanded to address the multitude, stating the brain wave in question called upon the Church of England to take up the case uf the slum dwellers. Now it just happens that the Church of England has for many years been particular- ly active among these unfortun- ates, also the Bishop of IVinches- ter undoubtedly hss forgotten more about the London slums than bliss Conquest ever knew, having been in charge of a South London diocese crammed with these dwellings until quite recently, when he was elevated to Winchester. The present Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of London were noted slum workers and for years the Oxford Mission has worked assiduously among the Whitechapel poor. All this Miss Conquest knows. Wherefore she should be soundly spanked snd her nose rubbed in the mud. This brings up the question of why people will herd together in city rstholes, where the chances are so good of starving to death in squalor? God made the country, and msn makes the city, and being only msn, he usually makes an ungodly mess'f it. Give me the open road, the far horizons snd mother nature. Then come rain or sun, come heat or cold, there is at least God's clean air, snd sleep, even the long sleep, next to the good earth from which we sre sprung and to lvhich we must return.

There is a radio fsn who rec- ently wrote 0 letter in the Van- couver press about some of the singers one hears over the air. The following is an excerpt: "Sir,--Are there no people of cultivated musical or phonetic taste in Vancouver to protest against the dismal wailings and calf-like bellowings of the in- famous misengsged persons who apparently, draw money for in- ilicting their most infernally hideous, meaningless, tuneless snd unmelodious vocal vapidity upon'hat long-sufFering minor- ity of the public who have s little understanding." He's a word artist snd I offer him my profoundest salaams. He's got every ser- geant instructor I ever suffered under skinned forty ways, snd one is simply lost in admiration. This reminds me that for the sake of the sanity of many of our city singers I wish some one would rise up and tell them who is Sylvia. For the last two years one hss hardly been able to listen to a concert in Vancouver with- out some vocalist bleating about this girl. Nobody knows who she is apparently, and it"0 a shame. I hereby request that sny person or persons possessing the infor- mation broadcast the same in the press, and thereby put all these singers and their audi- ences out of their misery.
