: lif ow is the Time. For " Every upiimist 1a Canada ought to take a- pessimist in charge. The cheerinl man should gently lead the diseipié of calamity to some corner, dnd there impart to him as kindly as enly the true optimist can, the know- ledge that this country will still be distinetly visible on any good map of the world when peace is conclud- ed in Berlin, The pessimist is not ~4 thinker and his imagination flour. {shes only In grooves of gloom. It is necessary that he be trained to walk upright in the sunshine among the _ peopld who pre adapting themselves to new conditions before he can he expected to shake off his adopted con- wletlons and take his proper place An the dally toil of the nation. The national machinery in this country did net stop when fhe first German Roose-stepped across the borders of Belgium, Canadians dic not take to their cellars nor cease to eat as usual Neither did the products of the fer tile fields of Canada disappear from the bins and the elevators or the live- atock perish on the hillsides. Few manufacturing plants of consequen- .¢e had to close because of the inau- guration of hostilities and those that did will be started again before long. Admitnd)y, the war has disturbed business; but not beyond the possib- ility of rapid and efficient adjustment and thoss adjustments have in large measure heen already achieved. As the first shock is always the hardest to bear, it is reasonably safe to as sume that the probléms of the future will be as capably handled and thai day by day the nation: will progress to a position of steadiness and con tentment. here were not lacking pessimistic pédants to preach that dark dud were dawning when Canada's volun teers began to gather Lor service over sean. Yet, because of that mobiliza tion, factories throughout the coun fry were soon rupnnigg with full staffs, and, In many eases, runnin: overtime, to furnish the equipment required, Boots, socks, underclothing uniforms, rations, rifles and ammu- nition had to be acquired. As the government has announced that a se- cond contingent will follow the first and that men will be constantly in taining here, while the war lasts, it is likely that these sell-same fac- tories will continue to operate, as a result of the war, while the conflict lasts. In addition,, quite out of a clear sky, came orders for gaddles and har- ness from the governments of Great Britain, France and Russia, in large quantities; because the manufactur- fing plants of those countries could not produce the supplies needed quigkly enough. The harness busi- ness is always rather dull in the fall and the demands of the armies of the #llies were gratefully received. Can- ada is being called upon to furnish horses at good prides, and beef at good price as and other foodstuffs at good prices, and in bulk consider- ably greater than is customary in times of peace, so Canada's portion of the war surely has not been uan| unmitigated evil. 1 The markets of a few manufactur-/ erg were upset by the Old World| fighting but they will find that their) products may be diverted to other] markets.

At present there may be a slight falling off in the amount of printed matter demanded by the manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers, so that the job printing. plants and the advertising columns are not eflled upod as frequently. But that condition is passing, Chemistry has been described .as the intelligence department of in dugtry. The making of chemicals and allied products in Canada in 1910 required 178 plants and 5,274 employees, 'the wages paid amount- ed to $0,303,971 and the materials involved .cost $14,059.02 There have been no reasons cited so far why Canadians could net take up this industry more systemgtically and be come independent of eutside supplies We have arsenia, antimony, cobalt platinum, nickel, copper, silver, gold, phosphates, asbestos, coal, iron, tun geten among other things listed as natural resources, Yet the bulk of our refining is carried on outside the country. The chemical industry in Canada new has a splendid chance to make history. The Canadian iron and steel indus- try is only in its infancy, Perhaps it is just as well that such is the case because otherwise the army of un- employed would certainly have re cruited from the big pants, Federal tatisticisms nunibered the iron and steel shops in 1910 at $24, emplay wages paid 7 5K Cc materigls The industry is most when countries are doing a deal of new construction when keletons of big office bulldings etched against the sky, and dence is rampart in individual Hint + pleasing feature is that orders for thiz class of work are placed usually n long way ahead.

Near Verdun, via London, Dec. 20 Few official communications are is- sued in which the Argonne is not mentioned. A few personally con- ducted war correspondents have had a glimpse of the battlefields on its tragic slopes, where soldiers con- stantly spoke of the rival trenches being so near that French and Ger- mans not only 'hurled interjections at one another but threw specially constructed bombs about the size of ericket balls, In .some cases the lines were not a dozen yards apart, and burrowing had made such head- way that a French mitrailleuse pok- ed its nose into a German trench, and in that subterranean fashion the en- emy was made to beat a frantic re- treat.

The nen who came out were glad enough to be driven toward the base, but those who took their places seemed even more delighted. In moving about the camps one constantly heard a soldier say, "I've been a couple of weekd here and haven't had a pot at a Boche yet!" What a hurry the trench worn fel- lows are in to change their clothes and to get into the hands of the re- gimental bargers!
