Johilston, ex- pressed his appreciation to the offic- ers and members who had assisted hlm in the work of the society dur- lng the past year. It had been a most difficuit year, lie said, due to decreased governiment grants and slightly decreased membership.

Well over $100 was spent on work at th-e Ceno- tapli and at the Cemetery, while work was also proceeded with at the Ontario Street and West End plots. The Society sponsored and provid- ed prizes for the Publie School Flower Show whlch proved an out- standing success wth several hun- dred entries. The president pad special tribute to W. E. Groves, A. S. Baker and Oliver Roberts for the splendid worlc accomplished by themn in the society's belialf. Ini 1934 he expressed the hope that the work started wiU be continued. Ail existing plots should be main- tained and the rockery at the Cem- etery should be completed. It was lioped to get a similar improvemelit at the West End under way as soon as finances permitted. The financial statement presented by Mr. Jolinston showed total re- ceipts amounting to $173.48, witli expenditures totallilng $165 .68, leav- ing a balance on liand of $780.

Kilpatrick De- livers One of Finest Ad- dresses of Season on "Making of a Nation" In one of the most inspiring and niely addresses delivcred before the m'a1 Canadian Club in many >ntlis, ,Things That Make a Na- on" was the subject ably presented yRev. Dr. Geo. Kilpatrick of Ham- ton on Monday night. The speak- ,,Who is well known here and irougliout Canada as an outstand- ig orator, was introduced by Mayor 7Rosa Strike, a personal friend for iany years. There are a great many difficulties Ld problems that are peculiar to Lna.da in the building of a nation, W.Kilpatrick said. Foremost am.- ng these were two, tlat miglit seem aurmountable at ftrst, but which .e great minds of the country are »w studying. The first la geographical banniera. ,anada is divîded into four distinct ections, the maritime Provinces, ýuebec and Ontario, tlie Prairie Pro- nces, and British Columbia. All xe distinct in their outlooks and iffer materiaillyf rom the other sec- ions, becauae o! climate, of indus- ries and citizens. The other great barrier was the >mplexity of the racial problem. It night seem azmazing, but it is nev- ýtleless true that 137 different and lstinct languages are spoken in anada today. These are but two )fthe barriers tliat stand in the way )fmaking a nation. There are four great needs sug- ssted by the speaker as necessary if anada la to become a nation. First >ftlese is idea]s in the personal and usineas life of the Dominion. We âave got toliave iliese, the speaker 3aid, before we can have a nation. Secondly, tliere was a need for the maintenance of traditions, tradi- Lions of the pioneer days, traditions Df the relationship within the Brit- [h Empire, and perliapa more par- Lcular of ail, the traditions o! the Great War. Thirdly, there was an evident need for tlie development of a distinct national literature. The trend to- wards this need was just beginning and today Canadian cities were pub- lshing dlatinctly Ca.nadian novels, poetry and histories. Tliese were stemniing to some extent the fl1ow of cheap Anierican fiction that has en- gulfed us. Lastly and perhaps of greateat im- portance, was the need of religion, not in tlie sense of sectarianlsmn, but areligion o! the ultimate and f unda- nan to fill the vacancy and greatly needed in a council composed o! so L go a d H l în!ortunately sucli thinga are not lone tliesc daya.
