The Church of England in Canada through its Council for Social Ser- vice and with the hearty approval of the Department of Immigration of the government of Canada at Ot- tawa, hopes to promote negotia- tions of suitable British immigrants by its congregations in places where there is real room for and need of desirable immigrants. At the an- nual meeting of the council held at i committee | Calgary the executive presented a parefully prepared re- port on the'/government's nomina- tion scheme by which, acting in con- Junction with the government of Great Britain. under the Empire Settlement Act, loans not exceeding seventy-five per cent. of the cost of third-class boats and colonist rail transportation may be made to British subjects now resident Great Britain, factory assurance is given that the person nominated will settle on the land and engage in farming in Can- ada, and that they are nominated by a British subject in Canada who undertakes to guarantee the gradu- al repayment of the loan (without interest) In semi-annual instal- ments. In his report as general secretary, Canon Vernon said: "The governmeni's 'nomination scheme preserves the independence of the immigrant by requiring the gradual repayment of the loan ad- vanced for passage money. while the faet that the newcomer has in his nominator a relative or friend, who is financially as well as sympa- thetically interegted in his success in the new country, is a distinct advantage. "Those who have already come should be the best advertisement of the advantages Canada has to offer, and the advertising such suc- cessful settlers do will naturally be 'among their own relatives and aec- quaintances. But what of the prospective settler who has no friend or relative in this country willing to nominate him and to- guarantee the repayment of his pas- sage money? He is none the less desirable, even though for lack || of already made friends his satis- factory settlement in this country may be somewhat more difficult. May I venture to suggest that here lies a grand opportunity for the ex- ercise of that social ministry, that fellowship, and that spirit of bro- therhood whieh should be dis- tinguishing marks of the Church of Christ. I should Jike to see the council give earnest and careful con sideration to the question as to whether in close co-operation with 'the Church in England our own { Canadian church cannot take a larger and more constructive part 'lm Empire settlement and in build- You can sell furniture, bric-a-brac, clocks, And even get cash for your last season's frocks.

Edmonton, Nov, 23--The Alberta government will float a new bond issue toward the end of January to take up $7,400,000 of bonds matur- ing in February. No on has ye! been reached as to wi er the issue will be made in Canada or the United States, though recent sale of $0,000,000 refunding bonds In New York is regarded as satis- factory by Provincial authorities. »~ " . a - k ae ae) nie N51 N ing the Canadian nation. In the main I am cnvinted that the best results are to be obtained by the careful selection and settlement of individuals and of families in com- munities already established, which will welcome, cheer and advise them In the spirit of real fellowship. Why should. not efforts be made to induce Anglican congregations in Canada to become responsible as nominaters for one or more newcomers? The first step 'would be a survey of ton- ditions and a statement of the type of immigrant needed in that parti- cular community. "Empire Settlement and church- building in a new land calls for the best the Motherland and the mother church has to offer, The securing and the placing of the im- migrant might well be the joint work of a congregation in Great Britain and a congregation in Can- ada. "Cannot we, acting with the mother church, bring it about that Anglicans coming to Canada are: 1. Selected, aided, and advised by 2 church congregation in England. 2, Conducted, wien necessaty, under church auspices, and 3. Set- tled, advised and encouraged In Canada by a congregation of the old church in' the New Land? 1 earnestly submit these suggestions for the serious consideration of our council." . Since the annual meeting of the council the matter has been still fur- ther considered by' the executive committee, tQe hearty approval . of the federal department of immigra- tion has been secured, and Canon Vernon, the general secretary of the council, has been authorized by the executive to take steps to work out and carry into practice such a scheme of group nominations by church congregations. Of cou it is fully recognized that the step is experimental, but it/is seemingly an oy er 4 NWN) fo : " in | provided that satis- | Conservatives, on the right. country in the world, life. : worth thinking experiment most distinctly while. More and more Canadians are realizing that the future of Canada depends very largely on the growth of the nation through immigration, and 'that if the best results are to be obtained inantly of the very best British stock. Moreover, as was out in the memorial presented by the official boards of the Angli- odist and 'Presbyterian Cédmmunions in Canada: "Admission sheuld be granted only to classes and kinds of immi- grants actually needed and the na- tion's capacity to: Incorporate into the body politic should determine the number received. No more im- migration should be admitted than can find steady and useful em- ployment without endangering mal standards of life, labor wages." and ------ MONEY AT WORK \ Brief but Important Lessons fn Finauce, Markets, Stocks, Bonds and Investments OUR RESERVOIR IS LEAKING Tax exempt securities tend to re. tard business progress.

The clouds play an important part as indicators of the direction and speed "of winds aloft. When: the aviator or meteorologist wants 'to know conditions in the free air he may send up a pilot balloon and watch it travel as it rises, which does very well in a clear .atmos- phere, but is useless as soon as it disappears in a cloud. Or he may simply watch cloud motions. A cloud, being merely an aggre- gate of liquid or solid particles, usually travels with the same speed and direction as the wind at {ts level. Rising thunderheads and the cumulus cloud in its early stages are exceptions since their air has just come from lower, slower levels. Bo also is the well-defined leatiou- lar cloud, oftén called crest cloud, banner cloud, or billow cloud, which marks the standing crest of & wave when air is streaming over an obstruction, such as 8 mountain range. With these exceptions, clouds indicate the winds. But from the angular motions of clouds, which alone usually are ob- seryable, actual speeds are mot ob- tainable unless the distances are known. Rarely can a single ob- server establish the height, except: ing in the case of clouds formed tored to Napanee Saturday evening i of i i | i Is £ : i i i in i me - - g i i ; Not more than ove free trial bottle to a family "MAKE YOUR Have the Hotpoint WORK Electric Goods in your home.
