Moreover-- and this was the queer part of it—he had not recognized her at their first, meeting, nor during the hour and .a half she had sat for him. Only when she had seated herself in the car had that look of recognition came into his eyes. Turning the matter over in her mind, Ruth, as the car went swiftly southwards, carie to the almost inevit- able conclusion that the car and the fur coathad something to do with this sudden recognition. "The car and the fur coat," she said to herself, and for a few •moments she was face to face with something very terrible indeed. The car and the fur coat, at first sight, certainly suggested. the night of the accident But this terror only lasted for a little while. Merrington's calmness was set against that theory, and it prevailed. It did not take her long to realize what had happened. His lost memory. had not been given back to him.

These are such as to augur for the province, in the, fulness -of ,. time, an . industrial standing of considerable importance.

Men of outstanding scientific, train- ing are endeavoring to briquette this. coal, whilst other experts favor the erection of a great central power plant located -in -the midst of the coal fieids- and supplying power -tothe whole southern half of 'the. province. Still others see economic utilization in the use of powdered fuel. Out of the workings of these various bodies there is little doubt but that a practical ; usage of Saskatchewan lignite will be •_ discovered. Two chemical plants are at -the pre- sent time producing salt cake, sodium sulphate and other by-products from the great sodium sulphate lakes.A larger plant than either of these is be- ing planned, and with its completion the largest chemical plant in Canada will probably be located in this pro- vince. In . preparation for this - industrial future which Saskatchewan feels must inevitably arrive within reasonable timo, the province is 'preparing, at its. provincial university, technical men engineers, chemists, clay experts anae others,' who shall be available as full trained scientific workers when the tiros is ripe for their services.. The one handicap to more rapid ear ploitation •of.

Whilst this s a'v'ery insignificant pro - porton it is only necessary to hearken back ten' years to find that substantial progress -has been;tnade. In 1913 the province's mineral output was worth, only '$881,142 and represented only .56 per cent. of Canada's .entire pro- duction. Thus both value and pro- portion have nearly doubled in the de- cade which has not seen any great ata tention paid to Saskatchewan's mixt eral resources.
