And there He maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation; and sow the fields and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase. He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly ; He suffereth not their cattle to decrease. Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the Lord from the heavens; praise Him in the heights.

Canada's area is 8,729,665 square miles, of which 3.37 per cent. is water. ~ It equals in area the United States and all her possessions. Canada has more than doubled her population in 28 years. i The water-power energy of Canada is .equal to nearly twenty million horse-power, of which Ontario has 5,- 800 000 h.p. and Quebec 6,000,000 hp, Approximately 1,662,660 h.p. used by central stations for electrical energy is developed from water-power. Canada has the only two coal re- glons on the sea coasts of North Am- erica, in Nova Scotia and British Columbia, while Alberta possesset coal deposits estimated at 15 per cent. of the world's supply. The Mackenzie ofl field is in process of development, but sufficient work has not as yet been performed to prove its value. Oil shales are found in quantity In Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. In each province, knowa deposits must total over a billion tons, with an ofl content of from 20 to 110 gallons per ton, The total area of land covered by forests in Oanada is estimated at be- tween 500 and 600 million acres. Com- mercial timber covers 226 million acres and the remainder is suitable for pulpwood. Canada supplies over 87 per cent. of the world's requirements of as- bestos, This is largely produced in Quebec. Of nickel, Ontario's output represents 80 per cent. of the world's supply. Developments are taking place in the nickel situation which should make this industry again ac- tive at an early date.

It is obvious that Nature has been very generous to Canada, and, with such boundless resources we may with pride in our country look fer- wand to the day when the northern half of the American continent will contain a large and conbented popula- tion, a credit to the pioneers who blazed the original trails from ceast to coast, and to those far-sighted statesmen who, in 1867, sponsored the creation of this great Dominion of Canada. in time to the real music. The chil- dren entered into the spirit of the fun, and became almost too enthusi- astic in their mimfery. The rest of the children were eager to try it, so harmomicas were sup- plied for everyome.
