The Charlottetown Guardian laments government coverups of public account deficits, notes the Provincial Auditor's report showing an eight year debt rise of 113,174.30, and accuses the Bell administration of improper crediting while praising Hon. W. M. Lea for a controversial Holstein loan to the Falconwood Farm. It condemns a proposed liquor import export resolution as duplicitous and argues for self determination in prohibition.
In a fervent discussion, the piece argues the Federal and provincial roles on prohibition, criticizing the Bell combination and Liberal leadership. It cites Ontario referendums, taxation, and enforcement tactics, while noting social events and local society notices.
The Kennedy family of New York celebrates both daughters earning scholarships. The eleven year old daughter of Dr and Mrs Charles Kennedy passed top exams among twenty five hundred pupils at Gramercy School. Samuel James Kennedy won a scholarship at Stuyvesant High School marking a second time for him. Also noted is visitor Mr B McCready organizer of the Canadian Junior Red Cross who met old friends during a weekend visit.
The piece quotes Rudyard Kipling on wealth showing that money does not appeal to every man and that wealth can dominate others.
