Heenan Says Will Be Indusrial Peace When Employers and Workers' Rights Mutually Recognized, "When employers of labor and the labor men themselves fully realize that each other have rights, then and only then, will there be peace in the labor world," said Hon. Peter Heenan, Minister of Labor in Canada, at the of the Grand International Auxiliary to the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, held on Wednesday, Febr- ary 2nd, at the Orange Hall. : The occasion was the thirty-first birthday party of the Auxiliary, and Hon. Peter Heenan and Mrs Heenan were guests of honor. Members of the Brotherhood were present with their wives for thebanquet, the speeches, and the festivities of card-playing and music which followed. Hon. Mr Heenan, who at the outset, reminded his audience that he has been ja member of the Brotherhood for over a quarter of a century, and by some people considered a rather active mem- ber, admonished the members to drop their narrow views on labor. "I know you have brought your organization to an almost perfect state, so far as labor bodies go, but I fear that the members are permitting their officers to do all the work." He urged the men to at- tend their lodge meetinng. "Do not ridicule your organization, outside; don't express discontent; but rather go to your lodge meetings and there dis- cuss your problems." "Let the lodge room of the Brothexr- hood of Locomotive Engineers, not only in Ottawa, but throughout Canada, be filled; and do not leave all the work of the order to the officers." : "Most of you boys have been in the crganization long enough to know its worth. Have a sense of unity." Hon. Mr Heenan praised the women for their active part in the Auxiliary, and his parting message to the men was "Now I am in a position where 1 can ke of use to labor generally throughout Canada. I will do what I can for you. I know all you want is a square deal, and I will try and see that you get it." Superintendent Hughes, of the C. P. R, who with Mrs Hughes was a guest of honor spoke briefly. Mrs Heenan, who has been one of the most active members. of the Grand International Auxiliary, said she was proud of her membership in this body. You have accomplished much, especially for the wives and-children of engineers, and it was your co-opera- tion that brought this about." Mrs annual banquet of the Ottawa Division!

(Canadians and their winter visitors, desirous of getting out into the north woods during the season of ice and snow, have a splendid opportunity for enjoyment in the Blanc Bec Trails, tourist journeys over the trap lines and through the big game haunts of Northern Ontario and Quebec, recently inaugur- ated by the Canadian National Railways. The tourists are taken, by dog team and sncwshoes, over the trap lines by experienced guides and woodsmen. Com- fortable cabins are available on the shore of lake and river, and the tourist is assured of comfortable quarters each night and of journeys which are laid out to fit in with the capabilities of the in- experienced Woodsman. 9 Canada's forests in winter time are a never-encit joy to the photographer, the artist « the nature lover. On the Blanc Bec Trails the tourist is taken through the haunts of the lordly moose and other 5 game, by men to whom the signs of the forest life are asan open book.

AAAAAANA PANS RARINT NG FEW CHANGES IN RADIO DESIGN ARE EXPECTED Dr J, H. Dellinger, chief of the radio division of the U..S. Bureau of Stand- ards, stated recently that it will be : several years at least before the pres- ent radio receiver will be changed to any great extent. "People have quit waiting for somt * revolutionary discovery in radio to up- set present conditions, and they aie taking broadcast receivers into their homes in the well-founded belief that they are getting standardized instru- ments which is not going to be out of date for may years," he said. "Only doubting Thomases are still postponing their enjoyment of present broadcast reception, anticipating some sweeping changes, are waiting in vain I am afraid. "Minor refinements may be expected continuously, BUT THE BEST OPERATION and RESULTS AS FOUND IN THE LATEST SETS, WILL REMAIN UNCHANGED FOR SOME TIME. Static and fading, which he considers caused by the sun, may be overcome in the future, but vesearch is still far from the solution, he added. Experi- ments which may eventually cure fad- ing are being made with a governor on a receiving set which will automotic- ally increase sensitivity as afding be- gins and decrease it as signals grow stronger, but its perfection is not in sight. : 'Before seeing Dr Alexanderson's ex- periment I was very skeptical about radio 'movies,' but now I am convinced it is only a matter of time and that development of discoveries already made. Vision by radio in the house may be the next important improve- ment. About eight or ten ytars from now I believe we shall be both listen- ing in and looking in on distant theatres and operas which comfortably seated in the home."
