our special process. 10 Se Canadian Deshiens

Entering a new year the people of Canada, while rejofcing In their great national heritage, may well give-more intensive thought and study to national problems and their solution than ever before. Every young nation has gigan- tic problems to meet, and by reason of Canada’s geographical conditions the difficulties to contend against are immeasurably greater than would otherwise be the case. Nevertheless, Canadians are a virile, progressive people and undaunted in the face of all obstacles.

One problem requiring immediate and continuing altention is the reduc- iion of debt. To debt reduction ihe Dominion, the Provinces, municipalities end individuals must give consideration. Before there can be debt reduc- dion there must first be a stoppage to furthqr debt increases. ‘The average individual will be well advised if he refrains from going any deeper into debt during 1924 and strives with might and main to reduce present indebtedness as much and as rapidly as possible. Municipalities, the Provinces and the Dominion should all balance their budgets, not by imposing additional taxa- Uon, but through the adoption of very necessary economies. Certain capital expenditures will, Of course, be necessary, but these should be resirieted to revenue producing serviees and the encouragement of production of new wealth through the de ‘velopmie nt of natural resources.

An example of what can and ought to be done is furnished by the present management of the Canadian National Railways. In 192% the C.N.R. had an operating profit of only three millfon dollars which did not go very far to- wards meeting its Interest charges. Last year the C.N.R. increased its oper- ating surplus to $18,000,000 or more, and while ihis did not meet interest charges in full, it did, materially reduce the deficit to be met by the country at large.

How was it uccomplished? = By larger earnings through increased trafic and the devclopment of productive services, but also through a very gratify- ing reduction in operating expenses resulting from good management, the elimination of waste, and sound economies. For example, gross carnings of ithe C.N.R. last November increased by $689,578 over November, 1921, but operating expenses were decreased by. almost two million dollars, resulting in a net operating surplus of $4,581,318, an increase of 185 per cent. over the corresponding month of 1921. Sir Tlenry Thornton anticipates an operat- ing surplus this year, if nothing untoward happens,. of $80,000,000 and he pre- dicts that by the end of 1925 the C.N.R. will cease to be a burden on ihe Mominion treasury.

Another problem to be tackled by Canadians, individually and collective- ly, is to make Canada a more self-contained and self-supporting country. — ‘I'o solve not only our transportation problem, but other economic weaknesses, it should be the aim of Canadians to develop our own natural resources to a far greater extent and thereby create a larger internal trade. Alberta, for example, possesses J5 per cent. of the coal of the world, yet Canada cain imports hundreds of millions of dollars worth of coal. Ontario, north of the

_Great Lakes, has enormous reserves of iron ore, yet impor ‘ts her requiyements

from the United States and Newfoundland. Janada's adverse balance of irade whith the United States ts not made up of manufactured goods, as some people would have us believe, but is made up of raw and semi-manufactured materials which Canada ean and should produce for herself, providing em- ployment for countless thousands of people and creating that increased vol- ume of internal traffic upon whieh the ultimate and permanent success of our railways so largely depends.

Suppose Alberte coal was carried by the railways at actual cost to On- tario, or even at a ‘loss, would not the final result be great gain for the rail- ways? Largely increased production of Alberta coal would lower costs of production at the mines to ihe benefit of all consumers, would cnormously increase efhployment, add io population, increased carrying of coal would tend to lower railway operating costs, hundreds of millions of dollars poured | into Alberia instead of into the United States would bring an era of prosperity and development there which would mean increased business for Ontario and all Canada, and increased traffic for the railways. Ontario would get back every dollar she spent for Alberta cou bul which is now lost to the State of Pennsylvania. *

A more scientific development of Canada’s natural resources and states- manlike vision in the development of internal trade within Canada would soon attract that larger population the Dominion so badly needs, and without huge expenditures on immigration. Canada is spending money on immigration and on trade commissioners abroad to develop our export trade, and this is good business. Dut it would be equally good, indeed better business, to ex- pend a few millions on developing trade within Canada in our own products, making the resources of one section of the Dominion available in other sec- tions lacking such materiale, and overcoming as far as humanly possible the

‘obstacles whith result from the geographical formation of Canada.

In an article discussing the many “ideal reconstruction plans” -of Tokio, Nichi Nichi, one of the leading news- | papers of Japan, says it is opposed to ihe idea of undertaking reconstruc- tion on a seale that-is manifestly be- ‘yond the economic power of ithe coun- try.

“We are opposed to the foreign loan proposition,” says the uewspaper, “before all attempts Nave been made ; to procare the funds on the home mar- | ket, a+

“tverybody desires perfection, but that presupposes the command. of ample means or teh abillty to muster suMficeint means to defray the enor- nous expenditures” which the carry- out of ‘tle reconstruction pro- gramme should necessarily involve. lif a huge programme not in duo pro- portion with the economic resources of the country is undertaken, not only will it be found to end in failuro while yet on the road to the final result; but will. be calcuated to shake the founda- {tion of the national economy by en- dangering he basis of the gold reserve ‘on which the currency system of this country rests.

“When we look to the sidlent oscil- lations of the German marks against pound sterling, we cannot help shud- dering at the thought while hoping such will not be the case, that tho same may chance to be the fate of the yen, unless the authoritles move with ihe utmost prudence in the matter.

‘Tf anybody thinks- the stupendous enterprise we are entering upon can be executed without submitling our- selves to the strict observance of self- denial, he Is indeed greatly in error. From now en we must concentrate all our efforts on the recovery from tho heavy damages, not by the power of arms, but by a clever and well con- eelyed cconomic policy to be pursued with a steady splrit and a determined will, not only on the part of the gov- ernment, but upon the part of the en- ire populace,

Speaks Well of this Country

G, Roger, a recent Scottish immigrant ‘to Canada, in a letter to the Edin- | burgh Scotsman, takes exception to the action of British harvesters who lave selumed. .ta.. tho old. cauntry with tales of hardship and suffering endured this year while in this Do-

minion. After pointing out that of 12,000 Britishers who came to Canada under ihe Canadian Government

scheme only 500 to 1,000 have gone back, Mr. Rogers says in part: “These ‘few have made noise and trouble so out of proportion to their numbers that many must have been led to be- Herve that they were voicing ihe feel- ing of tho harvesters in general. iFew seem to give a thought to whit ihas become of tho still remaininig 11,000, of which little or nothing is heard, Tho fact is that these men are so busily engaged working that they have no time for talking or writing. They have been sensible enough, and plucky enough, to take what they could get in tho meantime, rough though it may be, and are con- fident that they have every prospect of making good in Canada in_ the future,

“Of course it is inadvisable for any- one to come out who is not prepared to rough it; and it must be under- stood that the situaions offered do not by any means absor bthe man in the trades or professions for which they are filled or trained, such plac- ing being Impossible, at this time of year, owlng to the seasonal slacken- ing of trade, Iowever, i? the work offered continues to be taken advant- age of pro tem {t is a certainty that those desirous of obtaining cmploy- ment in their respeclive vocations will have ample opportunities and will be in a position to do so in-the spring, when they can lauch into whatever oc- cupation they desire, and with every chance of success and erery confi- dence that they will be satisfied.”

Liquid Condensate from Natural Gas Important Article of Commerce —

The Nalural Resources Intelligence Servico of the Department of the-In- terior at Oltawa says:

When natural gas was first struck in Pennsylvania and Ohio, they were already tio of the most populous and enterprising states in the Union, <A very different condition exists in East Ceniral and Northwest Alberta where already the flow of a large supply of

gas Is assured, but the field of icles

ness limited. (*

The ideal wa y to.uthlize satnead gas ig.for domestic heating, lighting ‘and cooking, and as a fuel in the develop- ment of power for manufacturing plants. But before this can be done thero must exist both the population and the factories within a reasonable distance, ssay 100 miles, to consume sufliclent gas and to pay a price high enough to wararnt the operation of the field and the investment requisite to the laying of tho pipe line.

If, however, there is, nothing to be done’at present in tliis direction, and the gas Its to be utillzed, the manufac- ture of commodities for which there is a continuous demand, such as gaso- Ine and carbon-black, is the next best thing. Twenty years ago it was tho common expcrience both in the Pitts- burg and the Onlario gas well district, that in the cold weather when a good flow of gas was required the presence of a liquid condensate that accumulat- ed in the low places on the pipe line, interfered with the steady flow, and necessitated pumping out or draining at intervals, Nobody realized then that in a few.years' timo this lquid would become an important article of commerce, and would add millions of dollars to the income of the natural gas pr ‘ducers,

Since 1904 various processes for ob- taining gasoline from natural gas have beon in operation, the object being to extract it at the wells before entering the pipe line. Improvements havo continually been made, and in a prop- erly designed and carefully operated plant it {3s now possible to recover from $87 to 95 per cent. of the gaso- line contained in the gas.

Except when Murray was very busy I had nothing to do with the cows, but the children claimed the calf as their special prop- ! erty and were never happier than’ when they could watch his attempts’ to climb bodily into a pail of milk. He soon learned to follow them around like a dog, making rather a nuisance | of himsel’, I must admit. That was one way in which our incurable ama. teurishness broke through all our ef-, forts to hide it, we made a pet of everything on the place and I dread! the time when Bunker will be killed | or sold, for I know the twins will-be | deeply grieved. As for myself, 1 still | feel like a cannibal every time I pre-' pare for a Sunday dinner the hen that a few hours ago has eaten grain from my hand. !

If the new cow and her calf added little to my responsibillties, the poured try and the garden, as I have said,| gave me almost more work than I had time for. As summer advanced I was | not so continuously busy, but for a while in the spring I was certainly on the hop, as Teddy would have said.

I had started tomatoes and caull- flowers and cabbages in boxes in the house and as soon as it was safe I set them out in the part of the garden re- served for them. Potatoes, corn, beans, peas, carrots, beets, turnips, parsnips and onions we planted in quantities sufficient to last us through: out the winter, and radishes and let-! tuce I sowed so as to have several} successive crops. I got red and black currants and raspberries out! from the city and Mrs. Mowbray help- ed me to plant them,

Those were back-breaking and face: ! scorching days in the garden, but the | smell of the rich carth and the feeling | of growth In the air almost made up | for the discomfort. pangs that were more than skin—or muscle—deep, but more and more I was beginning to think of Herring: ton’s Hope as home, and when Maudie wrote about Tetrazinni and Sophie Praslau and the opera and her Easter outfit I sent her by return mail an in- vilation to spend a part of her holl- days with me, It was the newspaper accounts of the opera season that went deepest, I think.. I did so want to hear Faust and Rigoletto and Aida again, and for a long while [ failed to econvines myself that T really preferred the ovigle whose nest was justi oul- side the kitchen window.

But after all, | told myselt, the twins were outgrowing all their clothes, Murray was fifteen pounds heavier then he had been since coming home,

the open space between the house and the creek. ‘We need one big elm on that little

. ‘rise in the ground,” he said, ‘‘one of ; aa ‘ & rl Yaluintat? | a ’ ’ 4 i This sound callously Calvinistic, Ii the spreading, irregular kind, with a!

rustic seat under it and some sort of drinking-fountain for the birds near: by.”

“But it takes so long for an elm to grow,” I objected.

“Yes,” Murray” replied, and thought he looked at me strangely,

soon as | can.

It was on the twins’ sixth birthday that I discovered the meaning of Mur- ray’s strange look.

It had been a strenuous day, with ihe Severn children and three of the Gagnons for the afternoon and an early tea, and I was glad when the visitors were on their way home and the twins tueked away in bed. The heat that marked the summer had be- gun, early in the season though it was, and after the evening work was done Murray and I were glad to sit oulside and enjoy the freshness of the air.

We had asa matter of course been speaking of the children, and I had remarked that In another year they would have to go to school, and would

‘them be babies no longer,

“yes,” Murray agreed imusingly, “they'll soon be quite a different sort of problem.” Then hesitatingly, “ve just been wondering, Margaret Anne—did it ever occur to you—do you think how it would be for us to

istay by the farm instead of going

back to the city next year? It comes {o me sometimes when I’m working that I shouldn’t like to leave the placa and let someone else go on with it.”

I suppose my surprise was_ plain, for Murray laughed rather apologett- cally.

“Maybe it is only spring fever,’’ he joked. “Ll you don’t like the idea, or if you think it would not be best for the children, just forget what I said.”

“Tt Js not a thing that one can for- get,” I told him frankly, “let’s tall it out now and then we'll know how we stand.”

But Murray, it transplred, was not}

‘even satisfied in his own mind as to the advisability of our staying at Her-

ington’s Hope, thotgh it} was obvious that so far as he himself was concern: ed he felt that he had found his prop- er niche. And there was no doubt that physically he was not the same man who had left the office—best of all, he‘had recovered his old poise and initiative to an degree that at one time I had not dared even to hope for.

It was evident that he had looked at the matter from many angles be- fore he so much as gave me a hint of his feelings. In the purely material- istic sense we would, he thought, be in ten years quite as well off in the country as in the elty—In a better position,, perhaps, for the land and the stock would increase in value,

T had my Httle| viereas if Ire went back to the office

i he would always have to wait for dead ! men’s shoes. i

| “Macleod and I were speaking of this the other day,” he told me. “In ‘merely a general way, of course; he | has no idea that our stay here is any- |

ent. And he agrees with me_ that ) while Canada is not the purely agri- j cultural country some folk would ;tmnake it out to be it Is undoubtedly | somewhat top-heavy as to cities just | how. We have not as yet accumulat- /ed sufficient capital to develop our in- dustries to such a point that they can support our disproportionate urban population, and we can accumulate that capital only by gettIng as close : possible to the natural sources of

{

our wealth, There are, of course, quicker ways, but none so safe. There has beea too much artificially stimu- lated ‘progress’ already, and we are beginning now to pay for it, I fear.”

“Now you are talking like a Grain Grower,” I interrupted.

But Murary disclaimed the title. The Grain Growers, he thought, were making a great mistake, one’ that was likely to lead them far from their legl- timate goal. » They had, he conceded,

| grounds for many of their contentions,

\thing more than a temporary expedi- |

“We'll not have to decide definitely for a whole year,’ said Murray, com- jing back to earth, “and you must not ‘let. my land fever influence you unduly. l’d never forgive myself if [ failed to ‘do what {s best for you and the chil- ‘dren, and you cam-decide that part of the question much better than any; 'mere man could. I know you have | ‘been lonely and you have missed your , friends and the advantages of the city, ' jand you have had to work much too hard. 2.” | I stopped him there. Just at that! ‘moment I was convinced that I had: inever missed anything. And as for, working too hard, I was, I assured, i him, so fit that the hardest work was j only a pleasure. Perhaps, I suggest- ed, my brain was getting fat and lazy. |

| “That ds another point,” Murray broke in. “Could you be satisfied to: live here always, missing the mental! stimulus of the closer contact with the outside world that is possible only in

! the city?”

But the very faet that the payments are being made In a routine business way, wilhout ‘speeches or ceremonies or fuss of any kind, is a highly signi- ficant fact. Britain has not only funded her debt to this country; she fs actually paying it. She has agreed to a schedule of payments, and she js meeting that schedule, quietly, meth- odieally and unostentatiously.

The British are staggering under a huge burden of taxation. They are struggling with a grave unemploy- ment problem. They had the choice of postponing an evil day by drafting along printing paper money and avoid- ing definite action or of facing their task at once and unfllnchingly. The British chose from the first to face their problems and bear their burdens manfully. The debt to the United States was one of these burdens. British pride. Briiish honor. Brit- ish courage demanded the payment of this debt, and the debt is being paid. —From the New York Herald.

Activity In Building

Business is Apparently Now on the Up Grade

There would appear from the fig- ures for building construction for the eleven months of the calendar year ending November 30th, to be no ground for pessimism jn Canada. Business Js apparently on the up grade, as indicated by the following comparative figures which show an in- crease of 13 per cent. over the same period in 1922, The total awards for Canadian construction during Novem- ber are placed at $15,632,200, as com- pared with $30,078,100 in October, and 321,453,900 in November, 1922.

Residential building again leads all forms of construction amounting to 36,692,709, and accounting for 42.8 per cent, of the general November total. Business building totalled $2,834,900, and industrial building $733,100. Pub- Ile works and i uaey amounted to $5,371,200.

Construction awards for. the year to date are given as $292,716,800, as com- pared with $259,371,400 during a cor- responding period in 1922. Jsxperts in the building construction trades pre-

i dict that 1924 will witness consider-

able building activity—probably in- volving an expenditure of three hun- dred million dollars in the consiruc- tion field. Much speculative building activity has been eliminated jn favor investment buildings and other high-class ‘structures, while consider:

‘able activity may be expected in the

engineering field. Building material prices and the labor situation seem to be fairly stable and it is expected that {n 1924 there will only be a slight re- cession in building costa.

U.S. Grain Through Canadian Ports

United Slates grain shipped from Canadian ports during the crop year, September 1, 1922, to August 31,-1923, totalled 65,000,000 bushels, according to a report compiled by the Bureau of Statistics. This meant total hand. lings of approximately 116,000,000 bushels, as Jt was necessary for the grain to pass through the elerators at lake ports and at ports of exit.

Big Drop In War Pensions

One-Third of British War Widows Have Remarried

The large number of war widows who have married again is partly re- sponsible for the big drop in war pen- sions which Britain pald out last year. Since then fully 34 per eent. of the widows on the pension Hst have remarried, although there are more than 2,000,000 surplus spinsters in the country. The government saved £14,- 000,000 in pensions last year, The greater part of the saving was due to the large number of children who passed the pension age limit of 16.

TURN OF TIDE

IN AGRICULTURE HAS NOW SET IN

-« Washington. — Unrestricted opera- iion of economic laws in course of time will bring about better conditions for those who farm, Secretary Wal- lace, of the Department of Agricul- ture, told the American Farm Jcono- mic Association whieh met here.

“The laws are at work,” declared Mr. Wallace. “They are driving peo- ple from the farms, and will con- tinue lo do so until farm production is reduced to a point where the de- mand for food will compel a fair price. ‘Chey are compelling farmers who manage to hold on to follow methods of farming which deplete the fertility of the soil and permit their buildings and cquipment to de teriorate at a rapid rate. They are reducing the standard of living in the farm home, compelling hard Jabor by the farm mother, depriving tha farm children of their rightful eduea- tional and social opportunities, and creating in them a hatred of farm life, which will compel them to Jeave the farms at the first opportunity.”

The turn of the tide in agriculture has come in the Uniied States, the secretary said, but for a considerable iime at least the farmer must look for his financial reward, not in the in- creased value of his land, but by aver- age annual profits from production. After many years, he declared, the consuming population of the country will use as much as is now produced, and from time on the problem will be to increase production on a_ basis

St. John, N.B.—That Premler Mus- solini of Italy is greatly interested in Canada was shown in a message through here by Captain G. Franci, who arrived“on the Canadian Pacific S.S. Minnedosa. Captain Franci has come to Canada to ascertain just what opportunities exist for Italian immi- gration, and with this object in view, will take up the matter with Col. Den- nis, of the C-P.NR. immigration depart- nient, Ottawa, and other officials. He had been in France, where he was looking after the interests of Italian immigrants. He explained that there are a lot of good farmers in Italy who are anxious to come to this country, and who prefer working on the land, as they have been accustmed to that line of work all their lives.

In ‘addition, he said that Premier Mussolini is Interested in the wel- fare of his people and considers that jthere are golden opportunities for some of them in this country. At the present time conditions are none too good in Italy, and it is felt that they would be able to better them- selves by coming to Canada. Captain Franci pointed out that the class of men desiring to come here are of the best, and are all skilled in farming. He considers that they would make valuable citizens and would do much towards developing the vast tracis of land in the western provinces. Yr

THE

Railways Have Big Payroll

More ‘Employees Means Big Increases In Wages Paid :

From present indications the rail- ways will pay to their employees in Canada alone this year $18,000,000 more in wages and salaries than they did in 1922. ‘This is something more than a mere guess; it is based on fig- ures issued by the Dominion Bureau

of 1928.

The railways have been employing more men than did in 1922, this being due to the general increase in traffic, especially to the big grain crops in the west. _ In September, indeed, when the cfop movement was not as heavy as in the same month last year, the employees numbered 177,122, as

The Less Narcotic Drugs Enter Canada

During Past Year

A decrease in the quantity of nas colic drugs which entered Canada during tho 12 months which ended with November, in comparison with the preceding corresponding period, is shown in a report made public by the Pominion Bureau of Statistics.

During the period under review, 1,782 ounces of cocaine were imported, as against 3,516 ounces for the same time in 1922. Morphine also shows ¢ decline, 9,289 ounces reaching Gia ada in 1928 as compared with 10,609 in the previous 12 months. ‘The quan- tity of crude opium imported during the period dealt with by the report was 1,100 ounces, as compared with 1,153 ounces for the 12 months ending with November, 1922.

Figures indicating the quantity of cocaine imported into Canada are not given, but it is shown that $14,- 000 worth came into the country during the 12 months which ended with November, 1928, as compared with $10,000 in the previous period.

He acted us moderator at the first {own necting in 17S3. fe then drew up a will, probated shortly after his death in 1804, reading, “I give to the town of Goshen the sum of $100, the fund to remaln untouched for 100 years after my decease, the amount then to be used for the support of the Congregational minister and for public | building.” In 1907 the Selectmen of, Goshen found the $100, wlth interest | compounded, had become $19,356. They have now built a handsome public lib- rary for $10,556 and appropriated the balance, $§,$00, for the Congregation- al Church of. Goshen.

The Text Explained and Ilumined

The Reason for the Migration to Canaan, 12.1. Now Jchovah said unto Abraham, Get thee out of my country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto the land that I will show thee—thus our narrative abruptly begins. The difference be- tween Abraham’s adventure and that of the other great adventurers—Col- umbus or Drake or Balboa—lies in the motive back of it; he was carry- ing out, not his own but God’s lead- ing. How did God speak to him? Ividently a powerful inner impulse, a sense of destiny, an overmastering be- lief that God had given thim a definite mission, impelled Abraham to.be up and away. “How does God speak to you and me?” Dr. Jowett questions. ‘We use all manner of vague phrases to express our sense of the diyine leading. Here ig a little batch of them: ‘I had a feeling!’ ‘I could not gtt away from it!’ ‘I could not get it out of

definite and iNuminating about this speech, and yet } it all suggests the compulsion of a divine imperative. Sometimes the divine will is made known to us in some new and strange assortment of our elreumstances; ,an unexpected door opens, and every other door seems to close, and there ig only one way be- fore us. We can talk of men without the ministry of actual speech. If I come upon a blind man at a_ street corner who wishes to cross the street, I do not guide him with counsel, I speak to him with a grip! I lay my hand upon his shoulder and speak to him in the language of dumb_ con- straint. Is not this the meaning of that great phrase in the book of Isalah, ‘The Lord said unto me witha strong hand?’ = Isaiah felt the dumb | grip of the Aimighty, and he felt he must! Some similar imperative laid hold of the soul of Abraham, and he! felt he had got to leave the homeland.” The call of God Abraham obeyed. As the writer of Hebrews states it: By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out into a place which | he was to receive for an inheritance; | and he went out, not knowing whither he went. His course illustrates that great definition of faith, as substan- tiating things hoped tor, evidencing | things not seen. “Abraham had no knowledge of the ultimate goal, but he | was perfectly sure of tho present: directjon. Where the road would lead after the next turning he could not tell; but this much was clear, ‘it is along here!’ ‘The distant scene’ was still in the mist. But what of that? | The immediate direction was plain, | ‘one step’ was enough, And so it is| with divine guidance today. The Lord does not light up the entire road leading from the calling to the goal. He-just lights up the bit of ihe road we have to travel today, and | the rest Is still in darkness” (Jowett).

Getting to Know Each Other

Removing Prejudices Through Getting Better Acquainted

A pleasant play now running in London shows us an American and an Englishman, who, coming together bristling with prejudice, learn by the simple process of knowing each other to be the best of friends. Perhaps it is only on ihe stage and in proverbs that to know everything is to forgive _ everything. We cannot be sure that, as a prescription for peack and goad- will between individuals, it is invar- jably efficacious. But there is little ; doubt that if nations knew one another better the world would be the happier. London Daily Telegraph.
