DR. JOHN 'WARD CHIROPRACTOR and O TICIAN Phone 70 Main St., Exeter THE CANADIAN DOLLAR. Not only is the Canadian dollar hold- ing itself at par with the United States dollar in the latter's money market, but Canadians axe making its position more secure by the manner in which they are absorbing their own natiional provincial and municipal loans. When our dollar was net so popular with the United States public as it is to -day Iong-headed financiers In that country were buying Canadian bond issues whenever they could get the chance I Now they are having to compete w°th Canadian financial syndicates, who in turn have no trouble in selling to the Canadian. people. The situation is not without a certain piquancy; it is a mat- ter of national pride to f•ee1 that our money is as valuable as that of ane 1 nation in the world, •The existent con- dition would rather seem to be an el- feriiVte answer to those who segued that Canada would be better off by harrowing every cent she could abroad and using her available res arc es o back ,enterprises•and industries at home.'
