The language, says a writer in Adâ€" venture, was already in use when Lewis and Clark visited the Columbia in 1805.

Exhibition Marks 650th Year of Amsterdam Life Canadians are proud of their counâ€" try, proud of its record in peace and in war, contented and happy, and eager that others share this condition with them. They are determined, however, that those who share this heritage shall be such as will appreâ€" ciate its many advantages and be preâ€" pared to adapt themselves to their country and its conditions, Canada has still much pioneering work to be done in every line of activity; the field is large and workers are necded, but not needed at the expense of lowering the standard already attained by her people. An alligator takes come fully grown. sturdy but humble and, in many cases, unknown heroes who, hy their deeds of daring, suffering, privation and hardship, carved out of the forest and prairie the foundation on which statesâ€" men and financiers afterwards buildâ€" ed this country of ours. These early pioneers are gone, few are even reâ€" membered, but their work remains. Canadians of toâ€"day, in looking backâ€" wards, should do honor, even though much overdue, to the brave men who opened up this Canada of ours. coal outcroppings on the banks of the South Saskatchewan river, which he followed on his return trip; the fishâ€" ing banks on the Atlantic coast were attracting fishermen from Europe centuries before the birth of Canada. It remained, however, for the early pioncers and those who followed in their footsteps to make these natural resources valuable. While not in any degree underestiâ€" mating the value of our natural reâ€" sources in the upbuildinz of our counâ€" try, let us also remember the obligaâ€" tion we are under to the voyageur, the trapper, the prospector, the lumâ€" berman, the surveyor, the frontier farmer, the civil engineer, and other But whit of the Canadian people. While all due credit must be given to our natural resources, we must admit that they existed centuries prior to the advent of our ancestors. They existed, but of what vailve were they? Biographies of early explorers all bear witness to the luxuriart forests on all sides; David Thompson, in his diary of his trip from the Hudson Bay to the Pacific comst in 1801, tell of the } Canada‘s natural resources are beâ€" icoming increasingly important as one looks over the field of industry. Any review of domestic or foreign trade emâ€" phasizes the fact that, in the several classifications into which our trade returns are divided, the primary and basic sources of supply are the lands, the fisheries, the mines and the forâ€" ests. These, with our developed and potential waterpowers as prime movâ€" ers in the industry, constitute the foundation upon which the Canadian people hope to place Canada in the forefront among nations. Canada on July 1st again celebrated her coming into being as a Confederaâ€" tion. Great progress hss been made in the 58 years since this great event, and toâ€"day the people of Canada, and particularly those who have been our leaders in government, finance, agriâ€" culture and industry, may well feel proud of the world position Canada is taking.
