P. R. PRESIDENT. SIR THOMAS WHITE PAYS HIM HIGH TRIBUTE ddressing the Associated Boards of Trade banquet at Winnipeg recently, E. W. Beatty, chairman and president• of the Canadian Pacific Rail- way, said that one of the most significant facts of the confer- ence was the desire of inen from all parts of Canada,. to discuss the country's problems from an economic and national point of view, free from the bewildering influence of political partisan- ship, • "This," Mr. Beatty said, "leads me to the inevitable con- clusion that the question of Con- federation n the principles of national unity which guided the E. w. $eatt9', IC.c. fathers in establishing it can- Sir Thomas White, Clu2irnuin and Prot- not be solved by political mani- Former.

In order to achieve national prosperity, Mr. Beatty advocated an extensive immigration policy tosupply the man power necessary for the "largest undeveloped country in the world." "If I had any sugges- tion to snake in respect to this question," continued the president, "I would uld su gest-that we take it out of the field of .statistics and place it in the field of human relations. We are apt to forget that the people who come to our shores are riot so many hundreds or thousands of British. or Continentals with or without settlers' effects, They are human beings, members of families who have torn themselves up from old homes, homes in some cases centuries old, to come and live in Canada, tb be neighbours, if We are willing to be neighbourly, and to become good eltizens if we only hold out a welcoming hand. "We realize how great the wrench must be when we learn that tome bring with them a handful of earth so that when the time conies for theirs to die in Canada it may be scattered over their coffins. I won- der how many Canadians, who :have made the trek to the United States, have ever thought to carry with them a handful of Canadian soil. No immigration scheme for Canada can ever achieve success unless duo allowance is made for such human factors." On the same oeeasion Sir Thomas .White, former Federal Minister of Finance, paid a high tribute to Mr. Beatty. Sir Thomas said that he had always looked upon Meir. Beatty as a representative Canadian who typified the qualities which are to be found in true Canadians. Mt. Beatty had carved his own niche in Canadian affairs and had made` his owns way' in the world as in the manner of Canadians. As president of the Canadian Pacific Railway, Mr. Beatty'`oceupled one of the highest positions in the Dominion and was absolutely unspoiled by his enormous sueec s, and Size Thomas liked to think that in this the former was also a characteristic Canadian. Referring to the improvement of the Canadian Pacifie' railway, the former i'iitance Minister pointed out that the history of the Dominion and the ;Company were 1nterttwitied and could not be disassociated. The Canadian iwacifie`Railway had stood as•the type of exemplary Canadian ante:Prise and eilurwage in the face of apparently' insurmountable obstacles, Sir Thomas also .coin Dented favorably on the good work the Canadian Pacific, Railway had dens during the «scat War, and later on in going ahead with worst, at the 'rc.lvte„t•;, of the Cxovernnent, in order to glee 10 Acis fit to soldiexa who were returning, after the War. �•1; t yan m uta FOR JANUARY By Betty Webster Suggestions for Cooking Vegetables It is most convenient and practical to cook again as natty oil certain ve- getables ,as can be used in one meal: The vegetables T refer to are spinach, turnips, cauliflower, peas and beans.

It is of no financial importance to find out where flies go in the winter time, but it means a lot to the Falls- land Islands Government if it can discover where whales go during the dreary season of the year.

Only scanty material is available at present as to what the whales do when summer is ' over in these Ant- arctic regions. and.: little is known about where they breed.

The First Highland Regiinent. Britain's first Highland regiment--' the Black Watch—or, rather, the, first six companies of it, was raised in 1725. Since then the Black Watch hat covered itself with' glory on many a stricken field. It fought at Fou:e- noy, won the historic red bee'le against the French in 1795, and was. wherever the fighting was heaviest in the Great War. .

J, Scholes - Burns are among the most con'iinon accidents. They often result from contact with ' hot • stoves, furnaces, electrical apparatus,from hot lard or grease, from matches' and a number of other things. During the winter, when stoves and furnaces are in use, and ohildren spend much of their time playing indoors, accidents result- ing in burns are especially likely to occur. Many small children learn that certain obiects arehot -throe h the t g painful experience of a burn.' Many burns are more or less trivial, They merely cause redness of a very limited area of the skin- They are painful but not dangerous. But some- times burns are severe and danger- ous -neither being deep, or -covering f muchof the surface. Even burns that are mild in degree may be, dan- gerous if they, involve much of the surface. It is generally statedthat a burn . vliich involves two-thirds' of the sicin`will prove fatal While superficial burns which are small in extent may be treated by home remedies, all deeper and more extensife should have the care of a physician, Vaseline Effe ctive The 'pain of slight surface burns may usually be controlled by some - protective covering which shuts out the air. One of the bast applications is plain, sterile vaseline. This may be applied on sterile gauze or on a clean cloth. Cotton makes a disagreeable. dressing for burns, if it is applied dir- •ectly to the burn. If no vaseline is. at hand, butter, lard, cream, or a little moistened bicarbonate of soda may be used. These are things .which are us- ually'available for first aid treatment. Extensive burns and deep bui;ns may cause considerable constitutional disturbance. They are accompanied by more or less : shock. The shock may be fgllowed by considerable fev- er- Complications involving the kid- neys and intestines may result from systematic .poisoning, the result of toxic, or'poisonous substances • pro- duced by the burn. Then there is al- ways the possibility of the wounds re- sulting from 'burns becoming infected: Hence, efforts to care for victims of serious burns should' be limited to what first aid is necessary until the services . 6f a physician are obtained. First aid consists in the removal of clothing, care to avoid the introduc- tion of germs into the damaged tiss- Causes of Landslides. in describing some troublesome landslides that have recently talon place in England; owing to wet wea- ther, Mr. William Platt, author of "A Popular Geology," says: The • causes are simple- enough, Whenever the geological formation is that • of alternate - hard and soft rocks, and when this occurs in ata sufficiently steep bank, hill or moun- tain, there will alwaysbe the risk of a landslide, especially after heavy rains, which soak into the softer lay- ers and make them loose and slippery. -. Landslides may be divided into two classes— natural and artificial; The former occur in the wear and tear of nature. That picturesque mountain in - the Derbyshire Pennines called Mam Tor is so liable to landslides that It has been nicknamed locally "The ;Shiver- ing Mountain." weAnother celebrated instance is the landslip near Shank - lin, Isle of Wight, At Merok, in Norway, a huge land- slide dammed up a river valley, caus- ing the water to pileup and form a lake. The people who lived in the village in - the valley managed to escape, buttheir red -roofed cottages cat be seen to -day under the clear waters of the huge tarn thus formed.

' The wounds should be covered with sterile'gaupe or clean cloths.

P. writes "Several of the children in this neighborhood have been troubled ' .with warts on the hands. My own little boy never.' had any warts until;; now. Now he has, El some on his hands like many of the other children. What causes warts? Are they contagoius? What will cure theta?"- Reply Warts are probably caused by in- fection. F They are probably mildly contagious. They frequently disap- pear -spontaneously. Their tendency to spont neous disappearance is ap- parently the basis of the commonly encountered belief in the many charms used as cures, 1Cleanliness and the use oaf some preparation containing salicylic acid will . usually cause their disappearance. Corn medicine con- taining salicylic acid is a good reme- dy. 31 it kta 7-(ZI,,,,,,,I(\ir, .c\u, IY"rztefor the 180 PurityPtozir'Cook,Sook. 3Qc in strcriips brings it to you, postpaid. l Worth lots more.
