Newspaper editors do not possess it. This has been proved upon innumerable occasions, bit never more definitely than upon the days that have followed elections in this country. But there is one method by which we may attempt to peer into the future, and that is by examining the past. History repeats itself, we have been told, and Bolingbroke has.added that 'History is philosophy teaching by examples. "In the history of British North America there have been two great occasions, each fraught with grave Ushgers and with mo- mentous possibilities. One was the birth of other, the Great War. In each, above all their divisions, and above all self seeking, rose the noblest characteristics of our people to inspire, to impel, to guide them to high achievement. . "But if the Canada of fhat day lacked numbers in wealth, it possessed a bold and confident people, a people whose qualities were all the best qualities of the pioneed--courage, faith, in- And these people had the great good ing the magnificent obgective of their dreams. "In our Confederation," said Cartier, 'there will be Catholics and Protestants, English and French, Irish and Scotch, and each by its efforts and success will add to the prosperity of the Do- We are of differ- welfare. "Such was the spirit in which the men of that day embarked upon the great task of Confederation. Such was the spirit. that made possible the creation of this Dominion and such is the spirit that Canada needs so much today. _ "The Confederation that included only five provinces at the beginning grew until it comprised nine. As it expanded in size, its population and wealth in material things increased. But not until the Great War did the greatest characteristics of the Can- adian people again assert themselves, and not until that danger threatened did they unite in a common effort, under leaders un- selfishly joined, as at the time of Confederation. Again they dis- played a calm courage in the face of an unknown future. On the field of battle and in the huge organizations of war-time actively at home, their initative and daring were exhibited. Under wise and inspiring national leadership, the civilian population acted with intelligence, resourcefulness and poise and the Canadian soldier displayed cool, confident, dependable courage that singled him out for the unqualified admiration of the world. "Having then these evidences of Canada at its best befort us--the best emerging when Confederation was created by the Great War, what of the present, what of the future, and should we be satisfied in this present or in the future, with anything less that the great best that has been displayed in the past? - "From the material point of view, we surely have little to complain about. Our potential riches are vast beyond computa- tion, vast almost beyond imagination. The Confederation that was so poor in 1867 had $15,000,000 in the savings banks of the country in 1900, and $400,000,000 in life insurance , but by 1927 these figures have grown to $1,372,000,000 of savings and nearly $5,000,000,000 of life insurance in force. The people of Canada Lown nearly $3,000,000,000. of the $4,000,000,000 of Canadian government and municipal bonds outstanding. "We are the third richest country per capita in the world. The national wealth of the United States is $2,918 per capita, of Great Britain, $2,459, and of Canada, $2,406.. Yet we are forever comparing ourselves with the Americans, to our own discourage- ment and disparagement, when we should be proud to stand on our own feet, proud of our position in the world, confident in our own potentialities, inspired by a profound belief in our own powers and prospects. : %But the material basis is not the only basis, not the most "| important basis, on which to compute the value of national life. Of what does the greatness of a nation consist? Of its exports and imports, the commercial attainments of its people, the extent, onfederation, the, AN ESSENTIAL OF MODERN LIFE ¢ ANKING Service is one of the essentials of modern life. It assists in the production of every article and in the of every commodity. Without it dis- tribution would be impossible. Yet Banking functions so smoothly that we are scarcely aware of our depend- ence upon it. By taking Banking ser- vice for granted we pay our greatest tribute to its efficiency. Each year an increasing number of depositors and clients afford evidence of the charact- er of service offered by the Standard Bank of Canada, STANDARD BANK Branches also at Blackstock, Little Britain, Nestleton Station, Sunderland shall notbe frittered away for the quick enrichment of small groups of men. To the last possible portion of the dollar they should be utilized for the creating of homes in Canada and for the larger prosperity of the people of Canada. "As a new, young, pregressive land, with so much of our national wealth still intact, this country should be making use of all that modern science can give to us. As example of national wastefulness we have in front of our eyes in the United States. Their mistakes we should avoid. The millions of annual loss from smut and other diseases in our field crops, we should do our scientific best to prevent. 'Every cent of value in the by-products of our forests, our coal, our minerals, we should aim at collecting for the benefit of our own people. The manufacturing of Can- adian raw materials should, to the final possible point, be done in Canada, to supply work for Canadians and to keep the profits of these possessions in Canada. We have the brains in Canada for this scientific research. Every university in America is profiting today by the use of these good Canadian brains and I submit that all our governments--provincial and Dominion--should give op- portunity in Canada to these able young men who are compelled by the force of circumstances today to employ their fine! ability and good training in the service of a foreign country. "We should have in this Dominion national organizations to use in Canada what is produced in Canada, our own fruits in place of American fruits, our own coal n place of American coal, our own manufactured goods in place of foreign goods. "We should have as primary objective in Canada the giving of jobs to Canadians. Without a job a man cannot build his home in,Canada. Without a job a man's character deteriorates. It is folly to talk about the virtues of adversity. Adversity is the de- stroyer of the better qualities. How can a man be patient, how can he think well of his country, if he cannot get work in it, if his temper is rasped by anxiety about where the rent is coming from and the money to pay for the food of his children? Leadership in Canada should aim at insuring for Canadian workers work and a fair return for their work, whether this work be managing a bank or a railway or raising cattle or laying bricks. It should in brief aspire to providng opportunity for Canadians to make homes in their own land, homes in which they can be comfortable, con tented and happy, and, where they can have a great sustaining pride in their country. : "With such national leadership, with such a national policy, designed to preserve Canadian character and a Canadian con- sciousness, designed as well to develop Canada's material re- sources, we could look forward to the next sixty years with com- plete confidence. For then we would have Canadians in ever- increasing numbers saying: This is my land. From it I will not depart. Of its size and beauty, its production and potentialities I am proud. Still more proud of the character and the record of its people. Here I shall make my home, here raise my sons, that I, and my home, and my sons, may have some part in the building of a great nation, a nation which under God, will become one of the grandeur and richness of its domain? All these are common- ¢ the greatest nations of all time upon this earth.'
