Huffman QUESTION OF'ORE AND " MADE N -CANADA" Economic Situation of Grave Concern to Canadians-Co-operatIon From all Cities to Give Work The war has had a sudden and pronounced effect on the "blade -in - Canada" movement which has been carried on in Canada during the past few years. hitherto the educational campaign, to promote the eaio of "Made -in -Canada" goods, has been viewed pretty much as the concern of Canadien nianitfaeturors, and has, for this reason, been denied the sym- pathy d 4!,i'pport. of a section of the people, the, war has changed Olt• this, and to -day the "Made -in -Canada" policy is. no longerlooked upon as a matter of sentiment and patriotism, but is regarded as an economic noeea- sity. The w nufacturers and other largo employers:. of labor are being appealod• to: by : press,- pulpit and publicmen generally to preeldethe makireuni employinont with a View to relieving the distress eliueed by the closing of many &dories as a result or Me ivar, Cnelousty ' n- adian factories cannot be operated un- less there is a demand for their pro- ducts. Hence the appeal on every hand to Canadians to patronize the goods made by their fellow -citizens in Canadian factories. It is admitted on all sides that there will be consider- able unemployment, and consequent suffering during the next few months in Canarda, but if every Canadian would, as far as possible, patronize home industries, orders would come in to many Canadian factories that have hitherto been placed abroad, and Instead of a slackening in factory ac- tivity the wheels of industry might be operated with accelerated .speed during this period of trial. Manufacturers and other large em- ployers of labor have agreed among themselves to maintain their working staffs as fully as possible even if they operate at cost or in some cases be- low cost. In so doing they are not actuated by any desire for profits, welcome as these would be, but solely with a view of relieving the distress which unemployment always brings. They feel that it is far better to fur- nish a livelihood for Canadians through honest work and honest wages than to dole but a pittance through charitable institutions. "Made - in -Canada" is, therefore, more than ever a practical business policy to- day. Every Canadian housewife, In fact every purchaser of goods in Canada should practice it and en- courage others to do likewise. About fifty cents of every dollar spent on the product of a factory goes to the workingman. All interests are, there- fore, comm" ' ..tning in Canada during the next few months to increase employ- ment by distributing as much as pos- sible in the form of wages to. the Can- adian workmen in the Canadian fac- tory. The campaign of the Canadian Press Association in this direction is most commendable, and will do much to restore confidence in the business and industrial comcunity, THE DUM-DUM BULLET The •official British name for the dum-dum bullet is "Mark IV." It is like an ordinary service bullet, ex- cept that the leaden core is left un- covered at the apex, and the casing is made weak, so that when the bul- let strikes a body, the soft nose spreads, and the missile tears a great gaping wound, and splinters . the bones, almost invariably with fatal results. The bullet was invented at the ar- senal of Dumdum, a town in Bengal, British India. It has been used be cause the wound caused by the stan- dard British rifle, the Lee•fMetford, was a small, perfectly clean perfor- ation, which had very little "stop- ping power" -that is, when . a man was hit, he was not disabled. Great Britain refused to subscribe to the clause of the Hague peace conference which banned the dumdum, but her regulations provide for using it only against uncivilized peoples. RULED BY HATED RACES Many of Europe's Peoples Long For Freedom From Oppressors If the present war puts an end to military conquest in Europe it will do it great deal for the happiness of that continent. Europe abounds in sore upots where people are bound by Superior force to an allegianee that is distasteful to them. These people aggregate in numbers between 25,- 000;000 and 30,000,000. A few citations will servo to show the general con- dition and how It eame about. Alsace-Lorraine, as it is known In France, or Ilsass-Lothringen in Ger- many, has a population of 1,725,000 people who are overwhelmingly French in blood, instincts, and natural allegiance: They became the prize ofa w r In 1871, Schleswig-Holstein is naturally a Danish province. It became the prize of war in 1800 and thus 1,400,00) more people are held under the rule y. In Galicia and Lodomeria, which fell to Austria in the partitions of the kingdom of Poland, are 7,300 00) people, of whom 53 per cent. are Poles, 43 per cent. are Ruthenlans of Slavic blood and the small remnant are mostly Germans. Germany's acquisition of Polish people by Conquest and partition number about 3,000,000. ,I3osnia and Ilereegovina, forcibly ttnnexed-I�v A.netrhi, nava 1,050,000 peoplu a:alosr en,r:re»' oz- servran blood. The majority race in the Austrian empire is the Slavic people, but they are subject to-sthrn repression in the use of their language: All their litetta- tura is under the ban, it being held promotive of pan-Slavisin, Tho ambition of the ruling class in the empire is to absorb Servia, Mace- donia, Montenegro, and Albania. Every nation that has lost territory to another in the last century is eager for a recovery if not for vengeance. WANTED NO PRISONERS Bismarck Preferred to See a Van- quished Foe Dead Reports that the Germans give "no quarter" to any of the Belgian peasan- try who oppose them fi1>r the mind of the average Canadian with horror, but such methods commended themselves to Bismarck. "Prisoners! More prisoners!" he exclaimed at Versailles after one of Princs Frederick Charles' victories. "What the devil do we. want with prisoners! Why don't they make a battue of them?" To Francs- tireurs he strongly objected to mercy being shown, and stormed because Garibaldi's "free company" of 13,400 volunteers were granted terms of surrender. "Thirteen thousand prison- ers who are not even Frenchmen!" he cried. "Why on earth were they not shot?" Bismarck may have objected to the taking of prisoners, but his preju- dices obviously had no effect in the Franco-German War. ' According to Moltke, who wrote the official history of the campaign, the French prisoners reached the extraordinary total of 21,508 officers and 702,048 men. But of these nearly 250,000 were the Paris garrison, who were only nominally prisoners, and over 90,000 represented the French troops disarmed and in- terned in neutral Switzerland. Still with these deductions, more than 380,000 officers and men were actually imprisoned in Germany, and were re- leased only when peace was declared. Nursed the Navy's idol Miss Slight, Admiral Sir John Jelli- eoe's old nurse, .who lives at South- ampton, recently celebrated her eighty-eighth birthday. She recalls many episodes of the Admiral's boy- hood days and his absolute fearless- ness. On one occasion when he would per. stst in running across the street she threatened to tell a policeman with the idea of frightening him. Just then a constable came along, where- upon young Jellicoe ran up to him and delightedly exclaimed. "What a lot of pretty buttons you have."

He has stated that it has been proved that shooting carried out before grog had been issued was 30 per cent, bet- ter than that done after. "Therefore," he added, "captains always found some excuse for taking their ships to sea a full day before carrying out one of the annual tests, while they also took care to hold on to the grog Issue until the- evening." To the i.tblle the name of Admiral niessmessee a ADMIRAL SIR GEORGE CAL- LAGHAN Callaghan is not very familiar, but In the service he is known as one of the finest seamen Britain has pos. sessed since the days of Nelson, He entered the navy at the age of thirteen, became a lieutenant when ite was twenty-three, and a comman- der at thirty-five. He greatly dis- tinguished himself as commander of the naval brigade of the allied forces during the Boxer rising tlf 1900, and succeeded to the chief command of the fleet on the retirement of Sir Francis Bridgeman not long ago. He was retired in favor of Admiral Sir John JeIlieoe. ! CANADAS WATER POWERS Canada possesses a larger amount of potential water power then any country, twice that of United States.
