Lean ot the North The year 1936 has been e note- worthy one for Northern Ontario in that an exceptionally large number of Cabinet members and other gov- ernment luminaries have seen fit to pay this section of the province a visit. There was a time when it was a rarity indeed for a Minister of the government to venture into the North country. but all that is now passed.

The way in which Sir Henry took the men into his eontidenee, and the considerate and friendly spirit in which he always met them, is now recalled with deep appreciation, and a genuine desire was felt to erect memorials at all the main points on the Canadian National. Sir Henry Thornton was not only a great railway executive, he was a big man. He showed it in strong‘ human qualities and real concern for the well-being of the large Canadian National family who were making possible the vast improvements of the railway and the high status which it ultimately reaehed.-Winni- peg Free Press. I The men will never forget the sin- core and friendly interest which the late president took in their welfare. He also sought their eo-operation.

Thornton Mama-ill: The late Sir Henry Thornton could have wished no tinet monument than the respect and honor in which his memory is now held by thousands of employees of the Canadian tu.. tional Railway. That has just been attested by the placing of I mem- orial plaque in the rotunda of the Union Station in Winnipeg and the placing of similar plaques in tour-, teen other cities across the Do-i minion.

( It is quite possible that colonial builders used wood in their stone houses often for the good reason that they lacked stone in the larger sizes.

Since there were few mansions in the col- onies. the first stone houses were built by carpenters, which accounts for the composite type of construc-‘ tion in which wood is used with stone - showing that the workman was more familiar with framework than stone construction. Buildings and homes built more than a century ago are especially in- teresting, for during that period things were just as experimental as in the present era. Houses of the same period built by different men often show very striking variations in material and structure. MONTREAL - An old building that was being pulled down by a ‘gang of professional wreckers in the 'eastern section of the city, revealed strikingly how the pioneers planned, in addition to offering hints for cur- rent construction practice. There is only one way to see how a house is; really built, and that is when it is going up or coming down, a wrecker observed.

The new wall was an entirely inde- pendent piece of masonry with no at. tempt to tooth the new into the old. Early builders realized the danger of disturbing a dry well. They fur- ther realized the possibility of the new wall shifting before it came to rest. Almost invariably a series of additions represented individual houses, one built against the other. The best example of this type of building is the old Wall of London, originally built by the Romans. Bas- tions uncovered from time to time, along along the walls were not bond- (ed to it. They were built later, and probably in places where the original wall had fallen. These little fort.. resses rather leaned towards the wall, acting as buttresses. The builders of both the Wall of London and the colonial stone houses foresaw the impossibility of preventing a long wall from cracking and so they made joints without bond at inter-I vals. where long stones Scrub am wa To w on: - "-"-"e"" "i-"----'"'-, n..- -----Il\iu uh use any, a."

The tight grip governments now have on their monetary structures. however, makes it difficult to predict how the out- pouring will be reflected in money markets. Estimates for the flrigt 10 months of 1936 showed Russia alone mined 4,500,000 ounces more than during the corresponding period last year, and that world production outside Russia had been stepped up 2,500,000 ounces. Production estimates for the world including Russia, euggested the total output of gold this year might ap- proximate 40,000,000 ounces, as com- pared with a previous peak of 30.- 000,000 in 1935.
