It is well that she should do so. The opportunities for Ontario’s development are great be­ yond all calculation. They await but the grasp of the understanding hand fox* development. And those new­ comers have the skill, the strength and the endurance to overcome all difficulties that hold growth of the province. However, two facts be kept in mind if the are to be equal to making their full contribution to ’the land of their adoption. The newcomer must realize that he has come to what is to him a new land. Second, the old Ontarian must see that the new­ comer has a great deal to learn before he can attain his full gree of usefulness. Newcomer old Ontarian apparently speak same language but there is a Terence between the language spok­ en in the old land and the language spoken on the shores of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. The distinction is slight but it is there. The termin­ ology of the store and the shop and the farm is quite different and must be overcome. The ways of doing things are different and must be transformed into ways and means understood by both. Mistakes will be made in this really difficult pro­ cess at which both parties will laugh in coming days but which are likely to develop trouble if solved in good spirit. For instance, not so long a Highlander came to one of blacksmiths with the request, want you to make a smooshle my kralic.” We are not responsible for the bad spelling of the lang­ uage of Eden and of the Highlands. Now who would ever dream that the Highlander was asking for a clevis to be made for his whiffle- tree. A little quizzing and a mutual understanding was established. Both Highlander and Smith had had many a hearty laugh over the in­ cident that was disagreeable at the I outset. Said a farmer to a newcomer blacksmith: “I wish you to lay mv coulter. I have it out in the wagon." do son till back the must ever newcomers de- and the dif- not Watching the men at work on his new bam, Jim thinks of the friendly talk he had with his bank manager. "I’ve got good land and I can work it. With a little extra money I can really make a dream come true . . So Jim got his bank loan. Soon, there’ll be new farm equipment. . . improved livestock ; .. a well filled granary. More work for the community, more farm products, more food for home and export. Helping people in all walks of life to profit from their own enterprise and industry is <o<^e of the chief functions of Canadian banks. $3 I* A w°r ELIMVILLE Murray Stephen has resumed his studies at Special Art at the^ Beal Technical school, London, continuing on as a part keeper at M.

Western on Sun- Harvey Shirley Sunday “What sort of monstrosity you think *1 am?” roared the of Vulcan. “Get out of here you are civil." “Easy now,” soothed the boss. A little explanation follows, “W« call that job lining a coulter in my country." The incident caused a deal of laughter in the district. Still another instance of the need of understanding is related of boss and newcomer in a factory. “Hand me a the boss crisply ordered his new assistant. Bill promptly tried to carry out the order only to report, “Boss, I’m sorry, but I saw nothing that looked like a monkey nor could I find anything for wrenching a monkey.” “Sorry, old man.” the boss re­ plied, “but come with me.” And a monkey wrench was duly shown “Say, boss, we call that tool a screw spanner in our shops ” Said a farmer to his new helper, “I have to go to the city today. Trim up those dozen apple trees ” In the evening the boss inquired as to the success of his helper's day’s work. “Boss,” said he, “I did not get the job quite finished, but I got the trees all down.” Here is an instance of a some­ what different sort. A farmer en­ gaged a newcomer to help him over the busy season. The new man seemed dour and silent and the farmer was puzzled. Later the new­ comer persuaded the farmer to al­ low him to care for the farm hogs. In a month the farmer saw his hogs actually improve in condition. To his delight the hogs were ready for the market three weeks earlier than the farmer expected. Later the cows were given over to the newcomer’s care and outdid hogs as tar as conditioning was con­ cerned. In neither case was the farmer’s expense increased. Inquiry proved that the newcomer had spent some time in Denmark where he served with wideopen eyes. He had Come to Canada in the hope of find­ ing wider opportunities than were open to him in the old country. * # * * In all the cases mentioned the newcomers proved to be skilled, earnest men. At first they were bewildered as all of us are in a strange country. These men and thousands like them have breeding and the outlook makes for first class citizens. All they need is patience and kindness on the part of those who work with them. Some of the newcomers may be poor affairs but those who know the newcomers best and who have tried to get on ' with them have found them the best of good effici­ ent men.
