S 9 eits s 44 tourists on their trip over the Barilâ€"Jasper Tighway and they were all most enthusiastic. Other tourists encountered on roads leadâ€" ing to Banff were apparently well aware of the new highway and we had many enquiries on the condiâ€" «tion of same. The same, of course. applies to the Big Bend Highway." The fame of Canada‘s two newest scenic highways â€" the Banf{â€"Jasper and the Big Bond â€" is widespread, according to a recent letter recoivâ€" ed by the Department of Mines and Resources, Ottawa, from a Vancouâ€" ver motorist who sends in a vivid description of his first trip over the New Highways Output in the Transvaal in 1939 was approximately 12,$19,000 fine ounces. Data on production in Rusâ€" sia is not available but it has beon stated that Russian output is beâ€" tween 4,000,000 and 5,000,000 ftine ounces a yoar. the bureau reported. Invite Tourists Production of new gold from all primary sources totalled 5,094,379 fine troy ounces, compared with 4,â€" 725,117 the previous year. Gross value of output was $184,115,951, an increase of 10.$ per cent. from 1938. TOPâ€"RANKING PRODUCER Ontario mines contributed 3,086,â€" 976 fine ounces, Quebec 953,377, British Columbia 626.970 and Maniâ€" toba 180.8$75. Lesser quantities were recovered in the Yukon, Saskatchâ€" ewan, Nova Scotia, The Northwest Territories and Alberta. Occording to preliminary statisâ€" tics of world production, Canada probably ranked second or third as a gold producing country, being exceeded only by the Union of South Africa and possibly Russia. Quantity and value of gold proâ€" duced in Canada during 1939 were the greatest ever recorded in the kistory of the Canadian mining inâ€" dustry, the Dominion Bureau of Statistics said recently in its anâ€" nual review of the industry. Record Is Set In Gold Output Dr. Duncan McArthur, deputy minister of the late Dr. L. J. Simpson, Ontario minister of eduâ€" cation, has been sworn in as minâ€" ister of education to succeed Dr. Simpson who died recently. Eskimo and Loucheaux Indian children come as far as 1,000 miles to attend All Saint‘s Anglican school at Aklavik, Northwest Territories, according to Miss Hazel Keyes who has taught at the school for the last four years. Sewing is one of the chief deâ€" lights of the girls, and the boys are quite good mechanics, she said. There are about 100 children in the school. Aklavik School Teaches Eskimo soon learn. From five to fifteen years of age they all enter Grade I.
