You are living in a Ynnd awaiting development, that offers you peace, happiness and prosperâ€" ity. Do not flit it nu{nthrouzh ignorance and lack of a knowledge and -dwreeiation of your own counâ€" try, Canada. Take off your coat, dig deefi and d.i? deeper, accept the challenge, unite Canada from coast to coast, from north to south, as the land of opportunity for toâ€" day and tomorrow. Such were the sentiments given expression to by the Rev, Jim Holland at the West Toronto Business Men‘s Associaâ€" tion at their regular luncheon on Tuesday. It was a talk delivered with real enthusiasm, humor and oratory. It was a talk that came from an obâ€" server, an individual who has passâ€" ed through the crisis who had taken off his coat and faced the realities and steadily climbed to his present position. It was one home, because of the o;;oz;l;;lfti;; it provided, because of its educaâ€" tional facilities, because it gave opportunity and solidity as a reâ€" sult of effort and work, The speaker pleaded for each individual to become familiar with this great land, to understand its potentialities and purposes, to be willing to work and to face the situation with a determination to overcome obstacles. He stressed the need of East and West and Centre unitini for the welfare and ?rogreu of.the whole of Canada‘s uture. Sectionalism, provincialâ€" ism, petty jealousies were but lumps that disrupt the whole. These should be erased and all kneaded into fine texture, making a whole strong united people, prepared to serve their being, their developâ€" ment and progress of this vast country. He called for one language outside the French lanâ€" guage, in which every individual who came to this country should be given but five years to learn to speak the languaie. Failinf to do so, they should be deported. Those labor leaders who caused dissention among workers within five years, should also be deportâ€" ed, in short, every effort shourd be made to develop a citizenship that was truly Canadian and to eliminâ€" ate all those undesirable characâ€" ters that would disrupt Canadian life. He pointcd out that Canada with its great resources and lands, is today in a position to give leadership to the whole world, but in order to attain that position there must be more people who can sing its praises, paint its pictures, write its stories and histories and let the world know that Canada is not an icebound, snowâ€"covered land of forests and rivers, without possibilities. â€" ooo who had learned to appreciate to the full, Canada as gl! adopted I do hope this will explain and stop any more nasty remarks that have been going around. _ _ _ The speaker was introduced by Dr. Rowley, as a young Scotchman who came to this country 25 years ago and landed at the Union Staâ€" tion with $13.67 in his pocket. He had formerly worked in the coal mines | in Sycotlnnd, but due to strikes and conditions decided to come to Canada to make his way. His first job was carrying cement Birthday greetings go to Miss Lillie, Bordon St., Humber Summit, also Miss Bernice Evans, H.S., Mr. Art Church, son of Mr. and Mrs. W.
