But  what  are  the  qualities  of  an  accident!  Is  not
the  origin  of  a  thing  included  in  the  time,  place  and
circumstances  of  its  appearance!  Is  it  possible  that
an  accident  may  arise  out  of  the  employment  and
not  in  the  course  of  the  employment?  Is  it  possible
that  an  accident  may  arise  in  the  course  of  the  em-
ployment  and  not  arise  out  of  the  employment?
What  does  he  mean  by  the  cause  of  the  accident?  Is
it  the  duty  of  those  intrusted  with  the  administra-
tion of  the  compensation  laws  to  make  an  exhaustive
investigation  in  every  case  of  accidental  injury  for
the  purpose  of  determining  the  origin  or  cause  of  the
accident?  Must  the  workman  be  denied  compensa-
tion in  every  case  where  the  origin  and  cause  of  the
accident  are  found  to  be  in  a  realm  outside  his
employment?  One  of  the  inherent  weaknesses  of  his
explanation  lies  in  the  fact  that  it  is  not  the  accident,
but  the  injury,  that  must  arise  out  of  and  in  the
course  of  the  employment.  The  words  should  be
read,  **  accidental  personal  injury  arising  out  of  and
in  the  course  of  the  employment'* ;  or  ** personal
injury  (by  accident)  arising  out  of  and  in  the  course
