The world's largest amber mica, plunaliago, nickel,asbestos; and other mines are situated in Canada, -while' daring the war, many othei° minerals 'were in such great demand that' individual mines overcaino ell handiCapS 4nd snot the acute needs with a prompt. ness that was of very material help in providing war materials. One of these latter minerals was molybden- its, the sulphite of molybdenum. The nieta1, lybd um, finds its greatest .use as an alloy for -steel, which it strengthens and eonseqoently reduces the weight required. In, .electrical work molybdenum replaces platinum he a large extent at a much reduced .cost. It is extensively used in radio work. Before the war there was practi- cally no production of molybdenite in Canada, with the exception of a few tons of ore taken out on possibly two occasions, A few Promising &Posits and numerous occurrences of the tCoin"' eral were already known, and the war demand led to the active development of the better known of thew and the . . systematic prospecting of numerous occurrences of /the mineral. The Close of the war quieltly out off the market that had been developed and left large supplies of the mineral eit the hands of mineral brokers and consinners in England. Prices at once declined and Canadian operations ceased. In the peak year of 1918, Canada became the second largest producer of molybdenite. Most of the output came frem a deposit near Quyon, on the Ottavee. river In Quebec, about 30 miles west of Ottawa. This mine for some 'time was the world's lifrgest producer. Since the war many ex- periments have been made in the making and testing of commercial molybdenum steels. These have prov- ed the value of low molybdenum alloy ethels, a fraction of one per cent. of the metal being- used for structural and mighteering purposes *here great 'stresses and strains are involved. The,export demand for molybdenum is• reported to have improved to such an extent as to warrant the re -opening recently, of the Quyon mine. Enquir- ies are being received from the Un- ited States and Europe for supplies. The concentrates from the above mine range from 90 to 96 per cent. molyb- denite, while what is recognized at; standard and the grade upon Which the market price is based in New York is 85 per rent The increasing number of commercial uses being found for molybdenum as a result of research and investigation may be expected to creaee a geeater demand for the metal and a more general min- ing of molybdenite throughout Can- ada to meet the demand.

To call a man "big" is to uethe a challenge. Those who hear the word applied are aroused to ask, "What has he done?" It is useless for any man to insist on his own pre-eminence; his quality must be determined and his place assigned by others who have seen artd appraised his work. The "big" man is not the noisiete. His ere often the "schemes Ancome plished in repose." He has great pa - 'biotite and.can wait. It does not fret him to find other men arriving before him; as he is not puffed up over any success of his own, so, in the belief that all work is more important than the evorlcman, he is glad that a worthy undertaking goes forward, whoever is honored and rewarded for it. It is the little man who clamors for -the credit, and must be advertised as the figure of supreme importance on the landscape wherever he appears. Petty claimants for applauseand praise invite the amused tolerance of the truly great, who wonder why hu- man beings should so perturb them- selves over the trivial insignia . of rank, etitherity arid social precedenee. What 14 any honor that man can be- stow on inan-compared with the need' of getting the woeld's work, done? The little•rnan. calls a 'halt in the middle of business to affirm his own consequence, when the real importance attaches not to him, nor to any other person, but to the affair in hand. In every sort of occuenition the peesonal equation cannot' be ignored; there Is need of sympathy between the human factors, there is room.for the amen- ities, and colleagues ought to be friehds. But the thing to be done is impersonal,' and it has no time to • waste on the idiosyncrasies; of those engaged in doing it.
