At the end of the war there were 21,569 miles of rural lines bringing electricity to the rural areas of Ontario. By September, 1951 the miles of line had increased to 37,239. During this period the horse. power demand in the rural areas showed a remark. able increase. The demand at war's end was 132,551 horsepower. By 1950 it had more than doubled to a total &f 314,681 horsepower. bn the farm, Hydro power is a low-cost hired man helping to produce more at a reduced cost. In the home it makes possible the use of modern elec. trical appliances which ligliten work, save time and make life easier for ail. Yes, the coming of Hydro to the faim provides a better way of life for thousands of people in the rural areas of the Province. Lot Us Alil' Rmember Hydro Is Ours.. W. Should Use It Wisely Open letter to No. Mrs. Elizabeth Dudley, 47 Osborne Road, Denton. W. Manchester, r10/51 England. Dear Madam: Seeing aur Editor's photo, nam- and address in an English pub- lication, and bcing o! a mind ta move out of England, you wrate, asking him ta tell you about thc economie situatian in Canada, the cost o! living, chances of jobs, type o! dwellings. wages, etc. Mr. James is wcll qualified ta give a native son's views. If you don't mi, I'd like ta give you an adopted san's thoughts on the same subjcct. Why am I writing 3-au? Be- cause I haven't fargotten thc Lan- cashire hospitality enjoyed while staying for ten happy days, dur- ing April, 1915, at the Qucens Head Hotel in Ormskirk. near Liverpool. And I would like ta return a littie ai that courtcsv. Also, I like Lancashire folks, and believe they can get along any- where. No matter where you go. Mrs. Dudley, yau will get out of lufe only in proportion ta what you put in. The Vancouver area bas a clim- ate similar ta that af England, but the rest ai Canada can be quite warm in summer and quite cold in winter. When I say coid, I mean anywhere fram freezing La 50 degrees below zero. The houses are buîlt ai cvcry- thing fram woad ta brick, and are mostly heated by furnace and stove, using gas, oil, wood. elec- tnicity and coal for fuel. Rents vary according ta districts. The cost ai living, including taxes, is high, but wages and cm- ployment are good. Everything irom soup ta nuts, and from a pin ta an anchor can be pumchased here without coupons, ration cards, queing up, or governmcnt interference. The climate is ai the dry, heal- thy variety. Our natural rc$our- ces are unequalled anywbere. Our basic industry is agriculture, thus assuring aur population an abundance of food supplies at al times. Our railroads span the 4,000 miles from the Atlantic ta the Pacific Oceans. We have a pop- ulation of 14 millions, and could easily support another 100 mil- lions, which proves that Canada is as much the land ai opportun- today as it ever was. The two largest political parties are Liberal and Canservative. The main relikions are Protestant and Roman Cathoiic. We have two official languages, French and Englisb, with English the pre- dominant ane. Our population is made up ai representatives af cvery nation on earth. We en- jay a high standard ai living with a very high ration ai electricit, automabiles and telephonies. We sincerely believe that any newcomcr willing ta put up with five ta 10 ycars ai tough scratch- ing will, in the end, enjoy a bet- ter ecanomie lufe in this country where Jack is as goad as bis master, where people are taken at face value, where they are judged by what they are and do, not what sehool tic they wear, or wbo their parents were, than any spot on eath. Canada offers a fuller, mare enjoyable lufe ta its labor- ing classes than most countnies. You wondcm if your three-year- aid daughtcr, Janet, will bc a handicap. If you and your bus- band are intcrcsted in ber future weifarc, she should be a spur ta' youm success. You say your hus- band <Bah) is a laborer, so ar~e many ai us bere.

You may not find ready cmi- pioyment in your trade ai feit hat - trimming, but perhaps 3'oit have other skills that would be apprcciated in the Canadian econ- amy. Yau say you and Bob are wiiling ta womk hard, without cx- pecting toa sait a beginning. Well, that's hall the battle won. If you do came out bore, en- courage Bôb ta accept the first job available, then while w'orking at it, keep bis eye peeled for a better anc. A good thing ta me- member is, that this countrv bas been built up ta its present'state by immigrants who were indus- triaus, had vision and had faith in thcmselves. dn' it lér-il ontprtn waiting ta pop a fat juîicv worm into your mauth cvery timie you squawk.
