"' © This was the declaration of Dr. C. C. McCullough, past president of the Northwestern Ontario Associated Boards ef Trade and Chambers of Com- ce, Wants Policy. "I claim that there never has been a proper land settlement policy for this part of the province," said Dr. McCullough. 'Here we have the treasure house of all Canada. I defy ; the rest of Canada to find a finer climate--with sunshine nearly every day in winter, and moderate sum- mers. We have no plague, no savage wild beasts, hurricanes, tornadoes nor floods. There is not a section . of Northwestern Ontarlo that is un- ~inhabitable. It is healthy and certain- ly is as invigorating and as delight: ful as any part of the country." Already in the Thunder Bay dis- trict agricultural lands with an area larger than Prince Edward Island had been surveyed and to a consider - able extent settled, the speaked said. In the Dryden district there was a known farming area almokt as large. The agricultural area in Rainy River is only slightly smaller. Besides these there are large, unsurveyed fertile farming districts, mostly with rich clay soil, along the English River and near Sioux Lookout. The trees of this country always will be one of its biggest assets, for there are large tracts suitable only for growing trees. The myriads of lakes, teeming with fish, with many attraction for tourists and with great power possibilities, also area wonder- ful asset, the speaker declared. Wrong Attitude. "But our attitude has been wrong." Dr. McCullough said. "We have been trying to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps--trying to get someone else to do things for us. If we get a vision of our own part of Ontario. use our own brains for development of our own section of the country and thus force attention upon it, we will "have more development in the next 20 years than in all our past history." : Following Dr. McCullough's address the members of the chamber dis- cussed the problem of marketing agricultural produce, and decided that representatives of the chamber and others interested in the question would. meet with the city council's committee, which is working on it for a general discussion. ---Fort William Times-Journal. i Mr. and Mrs. Wilfred Faubert and farhily left Tuesday for Fort William where they will in future: reside.

Of course you remember Aesop's fables, I don't know whether they are taken up in school now, but whan you and I were young Maggie, we had them in English, in Latin and in French. What was the name of the French gentleman that owned up to the imitation of Aesop, in fact had it not been for ...7..there would have been no Aesop. Well anyhow, there was a story about the boys and the frogs, and the moral was, that what for the frogs. This has been one of my favoured fables. I suppose so often just a frog. There is some difference. We are not told by Aesop that the frogs laughed, and in con- trast the more hurt I am, the more I grin. I think I follow Service more than Aesop. # x ® Anyhow, all this leads up to some- thing. v With the highest ideals, I con- structed a new party, one to lead the down and outs from despair, and make universal happiness. I was never more serious in my life, I never enjoya2d the tribulations of criticism, of anticipated hostility so much, I was happy in the thought of being a liberator, I knew I had the right idea, I felt myself infinitely greater than the tachnocrats, and far more logical than the contradictory economists, and I expected flocking to my standard, and so decided to sit back for awhile, and watch the fermentation of the germ, But the germ didn't germinate nor the fer- ment fermentate. I did get many expressions of re- gret that I ceased columning, in fact like the dead donkey, I received a lot more praise being deceased than alive, but I am weary of adulation, I have had so much of it all my life. Of course, it is coming to me and all that, but it becomes boring after awhile. What I wanted was support in my sacrifice, and nowadays thers isn't much sacrifice. I really did sacrifice myself. ask how? a sneaking political ambition, and in early boyhood tied myself to Grand Conservative Party. endures long enough, is faithful and doesn't break the traces, this Party: grants rewards. So getting on to- wards the eighty mark, my owvpor- tunity might have come. But I have killed all that. my Altruistic innova-] tions have marked me dangerous. and I am dropped. I know this be- cause I have heard from good sources. I tried to help you, and you would not let me. In trying to help vou, I am damned. And so, as I told you in my introduction----m--m--] laugh. : From now on, fun and facetious ness will be my creeds.: ® x = = In the Century of Progress Ex- hibition at Chicago, there is a museum of prehistoric monsters.

On the face of it we have. Now I don't want you to take me. up wrongly; I do not want you to jump to any con- clusions. I make no suggestions," nor do I cast aspersions. : I merely make mention of a Nat- ural History Freak, that would en- gage your attention as much as mine, He doesn't roam the earth nowadays, he has been reconstructed from fossils, but there he is today, true to his life of hundreds of thousands of years ago. But I do not want to make you curious longer. The peculiarity of this beast was that he had divided brains. Half in his head and hall in his hindquarters. If you don't believe this, I have a picture of him lin my office, that all who want to can see. It is nice to think, that freaks of this sort disappeared with the Iec Age. : Geo.

How puny CO-OPERATIVE NOTES As we live in the age of capitalism it is necessary to apply capitalist standards to our everyday needs. If therefore we are consistent and con- sider people from the point of view of capitalism it will be seen by the reader of these "notes" that they may be 'divided into two main groups. (1) the individual capitalist, and (2) the Co-operative capitalist. The first group may be subdivided into two classes, (a) those who make capital work for their own benefit, ie, those who think; and (b) those who allow the former class to use their capital for the benefit generally and mainly of the former, ie. those who think | they think, or do not trouble to think at all so far as finance is concerned. The second main group also com- prises all three kinds of people as regards thinking. But those of the kind that think are very actively en gaged in teaching people to think for themselves. They are showing them how they can make their capital work for their own benefit and how by helping each other on a Co-opera- tive basis they can overcome their own financial difficulties. Te The principles which comprise this ystem of finance are embodied in the Co-operative Movement whose 'object is to include all civilized man- kind in one Co-operative economic brotherhood consisting of independent units each affiliated to =the others all over the world. Next week these "notes" will com- mence to deal with profits. There is a small group of people in Dryden and District who are in- terested in forming a Co-operative Society and - they hold meetings in the Council Chamber, Town Halil, Dryden, about once a fortnight. Each member has contributed $1.00 to- wards an organization fund and this money is being used to - purchase pamphlets and informative literature from the Co-operative Union of Canada - and the C.W.S. of England for distribution. The next meeting will be held in the Council Chamber on -Saturday, the 14th October, at 8 pm. and any- one interested is heartily invited to attend.

Morton, a pioneer, and emin- ent citizen of Wainwright Township. and one of the best known farmers in the Dryden district. - At the age of 45 years his death on Saturday last came as a startling shock to the whole community. Manifold tokens of widespread af- fection and regard marked the obesquies, and St. Luke's Church, where the first portion of the service was held was packed to overflowing by those who came to pay a last tribute of respect to one whom they held in highest esteem. The coffin, draped by the Union Jack and covered with floral tributes, and "bhorne by ex-service men,--J. Winterbottom, H. Wilde, T. Graham, BE. Deardon, F. Clinker and G.
