When the spoon-itd freshman gets tacclimatized he falls in line with the prevailing idea and begins fo hunt up a job for the vacation.

The freshman hears this in the draught room, in the dissecting room, in the library or in his frat. What these sophs. have been through makes a tremendons impression on him.

If we keep 'on building railways at that rate we shall have 58,000 miles in 1950, or enough rail- ways to mike an iron belt around the waist of old Mother Earth; another around the poles and still have en- ough left to go twice across Canada. To-day Canada has only two persona to a square mile, while the Uni States has 21 and England and Wales | 868. By 1950, if we get the fifty mil- lion people, we will have fourteen people to the square mile. To-day Canada has 33 million acres of land under cultivation; in 1950 we should have 150 millions under culti- vation if the people do not all flock into the towns and cities. The total value of the wheat crops in Canada last year was estimated at $500,000, 000. If our rural population grows roportionately we would be produc- | ing at least five times as much each year or a total of twenty-five hun- dred million dollars worth of grain ' and other field crops. Picture to your- | g2)f the number of trains and steam- boats that will be gequired to trans- port these crops to their ultimate | market. i Canada's foreign trade is increasing at a tremendous rate. The total of ! the last twelve months is just over ! 1,000 millions. In 1950, if we keep up our present rate of progress, our for- eign trade will be somewhere between five and ten times that amount. Think of the number of steamships | that will be coming and going in Can- | | ada's harbors to take care of that | foreign trade, those exports and im- ports. It may even be that wi wil find it necessary to have a Canadian navy to look after and safeguard that tremendous foreign trade. The total deposits in the chartered | | banks of Canada now exceed 1,000 mil- lions of dollars. If our population mutiplics seven times in the next | thirty-five years we will have 7,000 {millions on deposit, and we shall be one of the richest countries in the world. In the last ten years the capi- talization of the Canadian has increased about fifty millions of dol- lars. Figuring st this rate of growth the total capitalization of our banks in 1950 would be somewhere around 200 or 305 millions of dollars.

Tt will long be remembered, - not merely for the length of, time which the esse, from start to finish, occupied, but for the pertinacity with which it was fought, Money to pro- vide the sinews of war came from a" mysterious but never-ending source. There was money for solicitors and counsel; there was money for wit- nese's expenses, for inquiries of a costly nature; for all manner of ex- nditure, necessary in the accused's nterests, there was money available, Now the money could not have come from the criminal, for he had not $250 in the world; it could not have come from the man's relatives, Mor they were equally poor and, finally, it had not beeh "provided by public sometim & Only the oth day truth revealed. The barrister con: fided to a friend that the mysterious source was a titled lady, bearer of one of the most re names in the kingdom, who had voluntarily of- fered to bear the expenses of the de- fence on the condition that her name was kept a secret. She said she was interested in the man, and thought, if properly de- fended, he would prove his innocence. What happened to the man cannat be told bere, for that would immediate- ly identify the case, which, for ob- vious reasons, would be inadvisable, though it may be said he was sen- tenced to death and the penalty com- muted to penal servitude for life. Most astonishing of all, the same barrister confessed that he knew of other cases where titled ladies had been sufficiently interested in crimi- vals to pay for their defence, and he gave chapter and verse for his re- markable assertion. Got the Autograph. t Carlsbad on one occasion Brahms' physician, Dr. Grunberger, asked the composer for his autograph for a young lady admirer, but Brahms scolded him for making a nuisance of himself and refused to give it. Some weeks later, at his departure from Carlsbad, Brahms handed to the doc- tor an envelope inscribed, "With the cordial thanks of Johannes Brahms." Noticing a broad grin on the doctor's face, he asked: "What makes you look so cheerful? You don't know yet what the envelope contains." r do I care," retorted the doctor. The envelope is the main thing. Much obliged for the autograph!" A Smooth Villain, "Before we were married," she complained, "you always engaged a cab when you took me anywhere.
