It would be a revelation to him if he could stand at Mugrave, on the Atlantic, or at Prince Rupert, on the Pacific, and see the "fish specials" starting out for the heart of the continent. There are no other fisheries in the world that can compete with te | [i] resources of our Pacific salmon fields, and our Atlantic Banks. To show how undeveloped we are on the eastern po | | N.S., which has been called the "fish pier of North America," is without a railroad, and yet this port is the key to the greatest banks fishing in all the world. The period of the war gave us our first large conception of the poten- '| tialities of this business. With the European sources of production cut off, Canada expanded her markets in Cuba and South America, while our shippers sent huge supplies of salmon and lobsters overseas. The war showed us what we could do. At present, we are suffering from a shocking sluinp, 'We hear so much about hard times through which the farmer has been passing, it might surprise them to know that the fishermen have 'experienced even more untoward conditions, Out rivals in Europe, especially Norway, coming /back into the 'field, disor- ganized foreign exchange, and the .door of the Fordney tariff banged in our faces. These are some of the causes of depression. * The 1922 catch netted our fishermen practically no profit. result many left the fisheries, and the 1923 catch was far below average. This is the dark side ofthe picture. The bright side of our proximity to an inexhaustable mine of wealth whose fringes have not yet been touched. The air to-day is reeking with the word "Economy." Every politician for the moment has seized upon the parrot cry, "Spend Less." That's cheap talk from a rich, young country. Instead of broadcasting the "Spend Less" slogan, why can't we have that vision which in.hard times will exort us to 'produce more." With acres of newspaper space filled up with purely negative philippics against waste, would it not be better if in a positive way a little of this same space could be given to the consideration of poreayal fields of wealth that might be developed and extended. As a case in point, I submit that Canada veyoud doubt could supply the world with fish. The problem is to accelarate production by finding markets. Why can Norway 'beat us to it"! in Australia ? Why is pur home market stricken with infantile paralysis ? We need the American market, they need Camadian fish. Why, then, can't our reipective statesmen give us a trade agreement drawn up according to the basic needs of hungry stomachs ? To consider problems like this, fp a positive way, is surely more worthy of a young, rich country, than infinite reams of monkey chatter on 'the carnival of waste at Ottawa." ¢ The fisheries of Canada are at present in the doldrums. To-day, with thick gloom pervading this industry like a Grand Bank's fog, I was glad. to hear the faith of one of our recognized authories. Said he, "The fishing industry, with us, is in its primary stage. I look for a day when we have fisheries eolleges, just as we have agricultural colleges. The Dominion Government in recently appointing a biological board to carry on experimental work in the smoking, canning and curing of fish, is moving along sound lines. "Canada, to-day, occupies the third position among the fish produc- Ing nations of the globe. Taking into consideration our almést Inex- haustable resources on the Atlantic, and on the Pacific, with the applica- tion of the principles of science and co-operation, it 1s only a matter of As a the PROBS --Sunday, moderate to fresh east and north east winds, fair, not much change in temperature. at Steacy's Here are a number of aerial attractions that should prove of interest to thrifty shoppers: ' WOOL SWEATERS To-night $2.25 each 180 Wool Pullover and Sleeveless Boy- ish Sweaters, in col- ors Pearl, Crab- apple, Jade, Coral, Brown, Camel and American Beauty -- SILK HOSE To-night . . 69c¢. pair WINDOW SHADES To-night .. 75c. ea. 10 doz plain White, Green and Cream Window Shades, -- complete with brack- ets.

MISSES HER VICTIM AND. KILLS CARETAKER Jealous Young Woman Fired on Wife of Man She Wanted to Marry. ) Chicago, April 26,--Wanda Elaine Stopa, aged 24, distinguished for her mental achievements, a United States court law clerk and a lawyer of abil- ity, took the law into her own hands yesterday when she tried to kill a wife whom she thought stood in the way of marrying a man she loved." Her three shots at the invalid wife, missed the mark by inches, but the gir] killed Henry Manning, 60, a caretaker at the home of Yere- nia Kenley Smith, wealthy advertis- ing man, who lives in Palos Park. The aged man fpll dead after he' had pushed her out of the . Smith home and the girl dashed to a wait- ing taxicab and started for the city, announcing she intended 'to: kill Smith, with whom she was infatu- ated. The invalid wife, just recov- ering from a severe attack of In- fluenza, warned her husband by telephone and the police were sum- moned to guard him and the Palos Park home. Combined efforts by county, city and state police and scores of deputy sheriffs failed to locate the girl, or a man who was waiting for her in the taxicab. She formerly lived at Hotel Albert, in New York, and it is belleved she may have caught a train at some outlying station and is headed Smith says the girl has been an- noying him for two years, trying to induce him to divorce his wife and marry her. She has a husband, Ted Glasgow, and he and Smith have had several conferences, trying to solve the problem of what to do about the serious "'quandrangle." Body of Belleville Woman Found Floating in Lake Belleville, ' April 26.--A body floating in the-water off the shore KISSED AND MADE UP. Justice Mowat Settles Alimony Case at St. Thomas. St. Thomas, April 26.--When a young married couple named. Mec- Fadden appeared before Mr. - Jus- tice Mowat yesterday afternoon in an alimony case, at the non-jury sit- tings of the Subpme Court, his Lordship looked tly at both parties for a moment, and then said: "There is no réason why two bright young people 1iKe you should not be living together amicably. You go out there in that anteroom alone and make up and the first thing I want you to do is to kiss each other." Smiling their embarrassment, the young couple oheyed his Lordship's unexpected order, and a few min- utes later E. T. Essery, counsel for the defendant, George McFadden, a railroader, of Lendon, returned to the courtroom and snnounced: "You are something of a divine healer, your Lordship. I have to report that your effort at reconciliation has been successful." . Smiling broadly, his Lordship .ad- mitted his mediatory qualities, but he disagreed with Mr. Essery when he stated that "Eve had conquered again." The plaintiff in" her pleadings stated that she had been forced to live with her mother-in-law, and that they did not get on agreeably. His Lordship said] he diq not blame any girl for not wanting to live with her mother-in-law, no matter how fine a woman that mother-in-law might be.
