Ex-President_/ Roosevelt was awkward and stupid as - a boy until he suddenly dis- covered that he could not see | as much as other boys. He tells us that glasses changed his career. Yours may be such a case. AVAILABLE FOR EARNINGS The Previous Year Contingencies Were Arranged For. Canadian Locomotive shares are <terdv nt 621% hid. The statement is heard that the earnings &f the company are running in excess of fifty per cent. on the company's $2,- 000,000 common stock, althougat it is probable that the financial state- ment for the fiscal year ending June 30th next may not reveal the full earnings. Profits a year ago were very large, and the company, out of its surplus profits, provided for all sorts 'of contingencies, $0 that earn- ings this yéar will be available for dividend on the common stock. It is understood that the company has paid off all its floating liabilities out of profits, and that it has ample working &pital -to-eary onits busi- ess without borrowing. So far as the position of the com- pany is concerned at the termina- tion of the war, thére is no-~cause for anxiety. Canadian railways are short of motive power, and this should assure the company sufficient business at normal profits for some years to come. t _ A TABLET UNVEILED In Church at Suumeriand, B.C. ; Pte, Ross Rae.

The rector read a kind letter from $400 as a gift to the church. A letter of thanks has been sent to the donor by the rector and church- wardens, as well as a resolution of grateful acknowledgment froma the vestry. On account of the above generous donation, the church is en- abled to reduce the -total indebted- ness to bank to. $285. The auditors" report was a-master- ly item; and drew. forth much thanks from the vestry members to W, G. Ferguson, who in his report express- ed regret that illness prevented his colleague, Mack Coward, from acting with him. Votes of sympathy with all be- reaved faniilies and sick members of the congregation were passed. , R._F. Elliott and E. M. Loscombe were reappointed churchwardens, and the following delegates to Synod were appointed: W. H. Ferguson, H. W. Snelling, J. W. Power The other church officers were re- appointed: Auditors, W. G.

Votes of thanks to the various church officers, the W.A., the Lad- ies' Guild, the choir and other organi- zations of the church, Including Sun- day school teachers, were passed. The number of communicants on Paster Day was the largest' on re- cord, and, as the reports showed, old St. Paul's is in every department in markedly progressive condition. i PONTRIBUTORS. The Whig 'gladly welcomes letters from any oMits readers in regard to questions of public interest. In fact, we wish we had more of them for many good ideas ar# evolved this way. However, the publishing of let- ters anonymously or over an as- sumed name frequently leads to trouble. The man who signs his name to an article takes the re- sponsibility for its publication, and will =be more careful in what he writes than the one who can hide behind a nom de plume. For this reason the Whig has decided to discon- tinue the practise of publishing' letters other than those signed by the correct name of the writ- er. ; NOTICE TO.
