Wolfe Island, Sept. 20.--The Is- land was hit by the heavy gale and rain storm on Sunday, and consider- able damage is reported to buildings. Part of the roof of Mr. Fawcett's barn was torn off. Oliver Hawkins had just completed the erection of a silo, and' it was levelled to the ground. The damage will amount to several hundred dollars.

It graphically portrays the carving out of a tremendous empire extending from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and most certainly" creates a desire to visit and know this wonder- ful land. All of its natural and physical resources are most attrae- tively portrayed. The water power exhibit is particu- ! larly noteworthy, consisting of a model of each of the more important hydro-electric developments serving .the various Canadian cities across |( the continent. Except for Norway, i Canada already has the highest ratio of developed water power to its pop- ulation of any country in the world. Furthermore, as to future possibifi- ties, it has the lowest ratio of hydro- electric power in proportion to area. Of the estimated twenty million horse-power, about one and one- half million horse-power is develop- ed. This remarkable - development has been made possible largely by adequate laws which encourage pow- er development with due regard to present and future public interests. The policy of the Dominion Water Power Branch of the Canadian De- partment of the Interior with regard to the conservation and development of water powers, has brought about actual development without delay with an adequate control of consum- ers' rates and a fair and reasonable rental return to the Government. The exhibit is installed in a large room at the left of the main rotunda of the Canadian Pavilion. It con- | sists essentially of an enormous col- ored aeroplane pieture of the whole Dominion from coast to coast. This painting is on the heaviest canvas, over eighty feet long and twelve feet high, and occupied the time of three artists for several months. To the' beholder it conveys an accurate and startling conception of the topogra- phical features of the whole Domin- fod. The mountains of British Col- umbia and the several lesser ranges of mountains in other parts of the Dominion are most interestingly de- picted. All the important water- sheds are immediately in view, and the lasting impression to the on- looker, is that Canada is exceedingly fortunate in the water systems throughout her territory, which in nearly every case are most peculiarly adapted for water power develop- ment. It is interesting to note that every important river in Canada, at any rate every river which offers natural advantages for extensive wa- ter power development, flow from or through large lakes which afford such easy and feasible control that it is a comparatively simple matter to provide satisfactory power regula- tion for power purposes. + Ranging in front of this beautiful- ly colored portrait of the Dominion are eleven working models in relief, .and on a sufficiently large scale to give an accurate representation of the most interesting engineering and topographical features 'of each de- velopment. The developments rep- resented by these models have been chosen because of their location, serving all the important Canadian cities from the Atlantic to the Pa- cific.

Ope of the places which will likely be included in the commission's itinerary will be New Caledonia, an island in the South Pacific Ocean. It is proposed to have the commission -make a thorough investigation, and arnfong the first things they will do will be to visit the Sudbury mickel fields and the New Jersey refining plants. Ontario is fortunate in having the valuable counsel-of "such a leading autherity on nickel as Mr. Holloway. His expert knowledge and advice has been uisitioned many times by the Tmperiay especially since the opening of hostilities.
