BIRTH RATES' AID
French Destined to Become
Predominant in the
Dominion
Quebec.—"The Province of Quebec
is destined to play an important and
leading part in peopling the accessible
but still unsettled regions of the Do-
minion,'.' Prof.. W. W. Goforth, assist-
ant professor of Economics and Pol-
itical Salome at McGill University,
told a large audience recently in the
Chateau Frontenac, in the course of
a lecture Outlining the province's re-
cent progress,
"Quebec Province is Inow growing
numerically, and will probably con-
tinue to grow more rapidly than the
average rate a' growth throughout
Canada for the past 60 yeare," said
Professor Goforth. "There are sound
reasons for presuming that within two
generations the population of Canada
will be predominantly+ French in racial
origin, and that. the French language
and culture will prevail aver a wider
'area and'pver appreciably as great a
community on this continent as in
Europe."
QUEBEC'S BIRTHRATE; GROWS
"It is not only that the rate of popu
lation growth in this province is more
rapid than that of any other province
in the Dominion, but that while other
provinces in keeping with the prevail-
ing trend in Europe and America, ban
shown declining rates of natural in-
crease, negligibly supported by immi-
gration, Quebec has more than main-.
twined its previous high ratio of
births over deaths. The average an-
neal rate of naturs1l increase in 'Que-
bec'"during the decade 1917-26 was
19.86 per thousand, as against 19;51
per thousand in the preceding 10 -year
period. If we take the five-year aver-
age of 1922.25 we find a still higher
ratio of 19.96 per thousand, as :against
18.1 in the five-year period 1007-11.
Tha significance of this condition is
only realized when it is compared with
the average rate d growth of the
whole Dominion—immigration in-
cluded—since Confederation (17.5 per
thousand)."
The speakex paid a tribute to the
conservative principles anon which t14e
° business life of the province is found-
ed.
"The economic growth of French
Canada was less startling during the
iiroaperous pre-war years than that of
Ontario and the Western Provinces,
but that it was sounderis pretty clear-
ly shown by its earlier and more rapid
recovery from the fananeial and indus-
trial celiase of 1920. It is this po'st-
war economic advance of Quebec
which has attracted such wide atten-
tion, not only in the Dominion, but in
the United States and elsewhere, and
has brought to the province a larger.
investment of domestic and foreign
capital than it enjoyed during the pre-
ceding two decades.
GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION.
"Among other conditions which
1iraught this transformation,, two
stand out prominently, the first con
Berns geography and the second popu-
lation. During the peat eight years,
from a limited civilization built up
along the shores of the'St. Lawrence
of agricultural, fishing and lumbering
communities, and a few important
manufacturing and commercial cen-
tres, the economic life of this province
has spread northward with great ra-
pidity, and hasadded to its effective
resources a volume and variety quite
Unequalled in any preceding decade.
"The National Transcontinental
Railway, once the Dominion's worst
white elephant, has become an im-
portant artery of communication—oto
what promises to be the most'prodluc-
tive mining area of the province— to
new agricultural' laads, particularly
in the Abitibi region, where a success-
ful prograni.of colonization has point-
ed the way to future extension of

' across the Laurentian height of land.
The region of the, 'Upper Saguenay
and Lake St. John, which,a decade
ago, was only a remote community of.
straggling farms and isolated saw-
mills, has been transformed into a re-
gion of gigantic industry and growing
towns and cities—and the transforma-
tion is still continuing. Preceded by

Chicago was chosen as next year's

Raymond G. Twyeftort, of New

said that the dal may not be far off
when there will be as frequent
changes in fashions for men as there
are to -day for women.
-"The American main" he added, "is
awakening to the fact that this is the
age of style, and he is abandoning his
indifference to clothes. In the gen-
eral urge to enjoy the good things of

clothes, beautifully tailored and care,

from the ladies in the selection of
hats and should always wear a bat
that harmonizes with his suit. As to
shoes, the well-dressed man should
have at least two dozen pairs. A.
well dressed man with poor shoes
spoils the picture.
"These suggestions, of course, are
indicated for the man of means, but it
should be emphasized that the finest
ouetom-made clothes are incontest-
ably the least expensive even though
a man buys but one suit a yea. be-

NFHtVOUS INDIGESTION
AS A RESULT OF FLU
Palestine and a fresh batch of 150
pioneers arrived toward the end of
Janus y in time to join their com-
rades working on large Jewish plan-
tations in Judea Their arrival is said
by Zionist authorities here to be proof
that the economic depression which
set in toward the end of 1926 is past
and.that Palestine is entering a period
of expansion which 'may equal the,
rapid ,development of the boom years
preceding the crisis.
Permits for new immigrants were
obtained by the Zionist organization'
toward the and of 1928, and ininiedi-
ately afterward the Zionist offices of
central eastern Europe began select-
ing suitable candidates from long
waiting lists. Iii some places, espe-
cially 'Warsaw, the number of appli-
cants approved as fit forearly immi-
gration into Palestine is said to reach
more than 10,000.
Some 500 pioneers, or haluzig as
they arecalled in Hebrew, are expect-
ed beforethe end of February, the
first group of 50 being from the train-
ing farms of Germany, PoIand,'Lithu..
ania, Latvia, Galicia, Austria, Czecho-
slovakia, all had quotas 'assigned them
from Jerusalem. Although immigra-
tion was not actually suspended by
law, there is only a very small trickl-
ing of immigrants of the laboring
class with no means of their own dur-
ing the time of depression.
Prospective settlers with means are
at the sane time subjected to very
severe control, and there have been
loud complaints against the policy of
the inmiigration authorities, , which
was said to divide families as well as
keep potential wealth out of the coun-
try.

KEEP YOUR BABY
HAPPY AND WELL
Every mother wishes her child or
children to be well and happy; to be
bright-eyed, rosy-cbeeked boys and
girls, No mother, though, can expect,
her children to escape all the ills of
babyhood and childhood, but she can
do much to help them fight the battle
for health.
All prudent mothers constantly
keep at hand the means o2 aiding
their little ones when sickness comes
suddenly—as it generally does in the
case of children. In every home where
there are infants and young children
Baby's Own Tablets should be found,
Read what Mrs, Mary Bill, Centre
Dummer, Ont„ says concerning these
Tablets:—"I am the mother of six
children and would not be without
Baby's Own Tablets. They are a won-
derful medicine for little ones."
Baby's Own Tablets are a mild but
thorough laxative which regulate the
bowels and sweeten. the stomach and
thus break up colds and simple fever,
banish constipation and indigestion
and allay the irritation accompanying
the cutting, of teeth. They are abso-
lately safe and are pleasant to take.
The Tablets are sold by all medicine
dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box
from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co„
Brockville, Ont.
A. Severe Sufferer Overcame
'This Trouble by Taking Dr. -
Williams' Pink Pills.
No ailment a recent years has
proven so treacherous as has the Flu.
The disease itself is bad enough, but.
the after effects is where. the real
danger ilea. The Flu leaves behind it
a weakened body, impoverished blood,
shattered nerves and an impaired di-
gestive system. Too much stress can-
not be laid on the,Snipertance of -re-
building the blood and strengthening
:the nerves during couvalescenoe. 'DO.
til the blo5F1 is built up there can be
no recovery of health and 'strength.
The one sure blood -builder is Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills. Start a treatment
of them to -day and see how soon you
show signs of robust health again.
Among the many victims of the
terrible Flu epidemic of 1919 was
Mrs, Irving Maxwell, of Bancroft, Ont.
Read what this lady has to say con-
cerning what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
did for her:—"After an attack of the
Flu I was left in an extremely weak
state. My blood was impoverished;
I was seized with indigestion and
stomach trouble; my nerves were
shattered and nothing my doctor gave
me seemed to help me in the least.
I continually grew weaker and weak-
er till finally I lost all control of my
nervous system. My mother, who had
ued Dr. Williams' Pink .Pills with
good results for anaemia, strongly ad-
vised me to give them a trial. I did
so, and after using three boxes I
noticed some improvement. I pear
silted in the treatment and by the
time I had used seven boxes I was
fully restored to health again, and
although I am a mother of six chil-
dren I am now able to do all my work
around the house and feel as well as
ever .I did in my life before. What
these Pills have done for me they
will surely do for others,"
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a tonic,
not a stimulant. They build hp the
blood and aro a specific for such trou-
bles as indigestion, rheumatism, wo-
men's ailments and the general worn-
out feeling that affects so many peo-
ple. They are sold by all medicine
dealers or direct by mail at 50 cents
a box from The Dr. Williams' Medi-
cine Co., Brockville, Ont.

Spring conies early in southern Ore-
gon and, beginning with the first days
of February, those who dwell in the
valleys are apt to think of winter as
past. The rains may not be over, be-
cause nominally it is still the rainy
season for some weeks to come, but
sunshine plays a heavy part in the
program; and then there is the Ghia
