thousands of reservists belonging- to j

armies, have also loft the country.
Indeed, probably 630,000 males, the
most physically fit, and, in manv
cases, the most energetic and re
sourceful among the population,
hav<j gone to war.
And yet, hi spite of this, Canadian
liidustiy has made aastonishing prog
ress. In the fiscal year 1914 our
exports of manufactures were val
ued at $55,443,452; for the fiscal
year ending March 31, 1918, they
were $636,000,000. FV>r the sam
years the exports of agricultural
products were $251,519,141, ^uid j
$7 40,000,000 respectively.
During the last four years Cana
dians have not only been busy, but |
thev have been making money and a
great deal more of It than during
any previous period in their history, i
In 1904 the savings deposits in Can I
dlfn banks were $346,069,595. At [
the end of August, 1918, the savings
d<UK)sits were $1,014,711,865 an<jj
tho general deposits $1,569,618,
392.
Today there are over $500,000,00
niore on deposit In the banks of the
country than there were four years
ago, and, be it also remembered,
that during this tim^ the total a
mounts subscribed by Canadians to
war loans was $985,000,000. Last
yea- $420,000,000 were subscribed
'o th- Victory loan and yet at the
?nd of August last the savings de
Posits were $67,000,000 greater
th;ia they were at the end of Au
gust, 1917. Thase bu£e ' deposits I
have been piling up notwithstanding ;
the fact that several hundred mil*
lions havg been raised through In
creased taxation, while $80,000,000
bave been subscribed to funds of a
Patriotic nature.
At the outDrea-k of the *^r, Can
ada, which uo to that time h,id
borrowed $3,000,000,000 abroad,
md was paying in interest well on
o $140,000,000 a year, had never
boated at home a national loan.
But since the fall of 1915 four war
oans have been taken up by Cana
lian3, the number of subscribers to
lling 920,217, and', at the present
itne, another campaign is under wa

to raise $500,000,000 through a!
second Victory loan and it will un
doubtedly lj© successful.
Even if no more war loans are is
sued, by this time next year Canada
will nr> doubt be paying $50,000,00
annually to her own. people, who
hay* bought her bonds, which
money will be kept in the country.
Under pre-war conditions fuither
borrowing would have been done a
broad, accompanied by a huge add!
tlon to the annual toll of foreign
tnoney lenders.
' These developments, some of
which are startling in their char
acter, are to be attributed to the
circumstance that, as a people, Can a*
di'ins have found themselves, which
explains why, In industry and' fin
ance they are doing today what
they never thought of doing before.
The examnlo of the soldiers over
seas undoubtedly has had its effect
on thpse who have remained at
home. Though at fr'st inexperienced,
yet achieving signal success in mili
tary operations, and that against
the most military nation of inoJern
times,—an this has beyond question,
spurred those at home to groater
efforts in the various departments of
industrial activity.
O'ie success leading to another ha
fostered a spirit of self-reliance to
such an extent that toduy Canadian
manufacturer, merchants, farmers
and producers of alj kinds will,
with confidence, undertake almost
any task.
What Canada has done in war
time she will do after-peace shall
have been declared. Indeed, in
Industrial lines, ^ even greater Pro
gress may be exwected. The indus
trial development that lias been exr
perienced will not come to a sud
dtn and abrupt ending. Canadian
Industry, having demonstrated to
the world what it can do when giv
en the opportunity and the backing,
will, from now on, get bothh of
these. A nedey world will want Cana
dian products, and if the required
capita] for new enterprises does not
co-ue from aoroad, Canadians them
selve.- will provide it. f°r figures
show that they have the money.

TO THE NORTH!
A letter, received in the last mail
from the States, written l>y Regi-1
mental Supervising Sergeant Albert
P. Bixby, written on the 12th of
November at Camp Dodge, Iowa, con
tains a lot of news relative to the
ooys of the Fourteenth who left Ft.
Seward for the States last fall.
He says that he had the flu, but
pulled thru, and shortly after re*
portine for duty wa« transfered to
the Supply Company, 87th inf. He |
joins with the rest of the boys from j
Alaska in regretting that all their j
troubles were In vain, "ag old Bill !
fhrew up the sponge and! we are now!
resting on our arms," and they will
have no chance of going overseas, j
He states that the flu exacted a
heavy toll from thg boyg previously
stationed in Alaska, which he dea* j
ignates ag tha 1st Battalion, 14th j
Infantry, and gays that h$ is at a |
loss to know why it was that the j
Alaska boya geemed to fall easy vie-1
tims to the disease, but presumed j
tha' the fact wag "we had beeD |
enrouto for two weeks, during which
time most of us had' contracted cold
ha<j lost sleep, and thig had low
ered our powers of resistance to
such an extent that we were unable
to put up the right kind of a figit
against the flu that we otherwise
would hav^ done."
Continuing, Sgt. Bixby says, "The
more I see of the "outside" the
more the frozen north appeals to
yours truly, and so I am coming
back, and that sooji ag possible.
In this d'ecision I am not along from
what I hear every day. Th.Q 1st
