None of these workers ever touch- ed a power machine before this In- dustrial Department for Women was opened by the Canadian National In- stitute for the Blind in December of 1918. Two years ago many of them had never stitched on even an ordinary sewing machine. There is an old lady of sixty among the sightless seamstresses, It is four {ours since she became blinded.

In less than two years' time this wo- man of \ advanced years has controll {ed her nervousness, sensibilized her fingers, and overcome the tremen- dous handicap of blindness. She is a pleceworker on a power machine, earns a good wage, and does fine work that no young girl could sur- pass. : Help the Canadian National Insti- tute for the Blind by sending your contribution into the Whig Office. ------ IN MARINE CIRCLES } aetoned The steamer Maplebrook passed up from Montreal to Toronto at 1.45 p.m. on Wednesday. The steamer Brockville arrived from Picton on Wednesday. The steamer City of Hamilton ar-! rived from Montreal at 10.40 p.m. and cleared for Toronto and Hamil- ton at 1.00 a.m. on Thursday. The steamer Edmonton passed up to Fort William at hursday. \ The steamer Toronto down and up on Thursday, The steamer St. Lawrence cleared On a trial trip around the harbor oh rsday in preparation excursion season. Two will be made to Alexand to Picton, one to ready first prices have been slashed and a reduction of fifty per cent, has taken place in two days. Wheat, oats, barley, and in fact all grains will yield heavy, while roots are also well advanced. The farmers feel that they will be fully compensated for a light hay crop re- sulting from the open winter that killed out many meadows, As to prices there have been rapid declines, Catte are quoted in Mont- real at one and a quarter cents on the hoof. While this feems a ridiculous. ly low price compared to fresh beef, it is beginning to be felt on the coun- ters of the butchers, and in another week the effects of the slump in cattle will be fully realized by the consum- ers. Hogs are also low, and when the lambs appear on the markets no fancy prices are expected. - The real reason for. this ig attributed to in- dustrial and unemployment condi- tions. The workman and his family have always been the heaviest con- sumers of meats, and when the work- man is not working he does not feel the demand for meat, consequently the market falling off in consumption is quickly. felt at the abbatoirs, A recovery in prices is not expected. AYKROYD STRUCK Luck He Has Found 0il and It Is Said To Be A Fine Shooter. A former Kingston boy, Fred w. Aykroyd, now in the west, and who but three years ago purchased 640 acres of land in Alberta, has struck luck, It appears that the title to his land carried the mineral rights, and while engaged in digging a wel] he encountered oil which is reported as one of the most important yields in the Wainwright distriet. His land is just three miles from the town of Wainwright and the following ac- count of oil discoveries there appears in an, Edmonton paper: Oil discoveries at Wainwright, Alta., may lead to the development of this district into one of the great oil producing areas on the North Am- erican continent, according to infor- mation forwarded to The Tribune to- day. The first discovery was made three weeks ago and was attributed imme- diately to a leaking oil tank, Since then, however, oil hag been found in four wells, ranging in depth from 16 teet to 35 feet, and ending in a streak of sand: Many believe the oil has seeped through the sand owing to the pressure of gas which, it is sup- posed, has escaped from one of the wells at Battle River, near Irma, and entered the oil-bearing sands, In No. 1 Gratton well, south-east of Irma, three showings of oi] are Indicated in the log of the wel] pub- lished by the federal department of mines. The first ofl was found at 300 feet. Over this was about 70 feet of gray shale, and under the Shale, 42 feet of gray. sand. The next oil was found at a depth of 1,215, in a thick layer of gray shale, and a heavy gas pressure was tapped at 1,629 feet. Owing to dril- ling trouble, this hole was abandon- ed, and No. 2 well started, which was drilled to about 2,000 feet, when 8 gas pressure of 680 pounds was tapped. This well has been tapped for more than a year, The oil at the Gratton wel] ig of a is of a high grade.
