A Pioneer Pension
System
The Canadian Pacific Railway is
this year celebrating the twentieth
atslniversary of the foundation c i the
Company's system of pensions for
Chet employees.
It was in 1902 that the Board of
Directors, under the Presidency of
Lord Shaughnessy, looked into the
future for the benefit of those who
_„were layingthe fouedations of the
service thawas to take so large a
Bart in the up-builtli a of Canada. ;
In December, 1902, the directors
passed a resolution stating that a j
time had come when provision should
be made for officers and permanent
employees; who, after long years of
Faithful service, had reached an age l
when they were unequal to the
further performance of their duties,
:and announcing that a plan of super-
nnuation had been determined upon.
The plan was a generous one.
'The Company provided all the money
titecessary, and the employees were
2Ret called upon to contribute to it
en any way whatever. In .1903 when
:iiw' was first put into effect Canadian
alltateefie "employees numbered about
4;000. To -day they. approximate
Z0,000, and every one of them, from
ilea humblest stenographer, office
lhoy, or "track walker" • or even the
3eoiinor-employee at some far-off out -
Vest in China or in Europe, has old -
lege sustenance guaranteed so long
he or she stays with the Com-
ny.
Some Statistics
The Company's first contribution
4o the pension fund was $250,000
Which was supplemented by annual
Manta starting at $50,000 which
:de ta've, from lime to time, been in-
' :^'eased, until for some years past Atas been $500,000 annually. To the
end of 19p2' the Company had con-
'xxibuted a total of $4,715,000 to the
ur_d while payments on pensions had
eemounted' to $3,857,802, leaving a
r aaiance to the credit of the fund of '
41;640,103. In 1922 the total pay-
- 'latents made amounted to $508,051,
end at egtober 1st cif this year the '
Notal number of the Company's pen-
eietLeee i:-ee 1,182, each of whom

Kept in Canada
la fee the greater part of this
:money is of course distributed in
Canada,,,just as is the ease with the
Company's vast payroll of over
'4100,0000300 sin .wally, and the many
raa.i;o.rs it ,nearly spends on the
purehas`g of supplies under the pot-
try of distributing as much of its
expenditure as is possible in • -tire
-oourc ry it exists to starve.
The operation of the fund is' sint-
plicity itself, Upon reaching the
Age of 65 every employee who has
leered the staff b:fo c reaching the
-.age of forty is 'entitled to retirement
if the Company so desires and can
claim 1e pension of one per tent, of
e average monthly pay received
for the ten years preceding retire-
ment for eery ,year in which he hae
been in the Company's service. Thi;
is as the system was first devised
'twenty years ago, and there has

' forts. It 19.08 it was found that

That this system has been a big
factor in fostering the efficiency so
largely identified with Canadiat
Pacific operation is undeniable. Mr,
E. W. Beatty, President of the
Company, ems of it not only as
a prime necessity in these days of
sociological progress, 41 n as an in-
berent right mf those who give lives
of faithful' work to Canadian .Pacific
service, but also as one of the
things that has helped to bring into
existence the high strndard of co-
operation that ee inti between all
branches of the Company's :service.
"It is helping to mato contented em-
ployees," eaye Mr, Beatty, "and that

A new order of things was being born in Southern
Alberta,• that a new system of farming was taking the
place of the old. I was told that the days of "scratching eige_g?t `r,: ie., Let aLe

eeee
I was not prepared for what I saw.
Fifteen years before, 1 .had travelled through this
country and had seen only a few scattered farmsteads
set out on the "bald-headed" prairie, four square to all
the winds that bleu. There were no ; trees, only a
stretching expanse of prairie that merged into white -
topped mountains on the. West and meeting the sky on
the east in an'unbroken 'horizon. A few homesteaders
were straggling in, Old cattlemen, trying to save their.
great range, were spreading stories that farming could
never be a success in Southern Alberta.
But the homesteaders came. Then later elle big
'farmers arrived with their tractors and ushered In the
era of the thousand acre wheat ameba. A series of "wet
am
years" made Southern Alberta fous. nowhere had
such crops ever previously been heard of, The Noble
Foundation, one of the largest'farming corporations Inthe world, brought In a crop of wheat from one th'onsand

1 Berta' reached the peak of prosperity. A series of un-
productive years followed when rainfall was scant.
Some farms were abandoned, but, mostly; inen held on,
buoyed up by the wonder harvests of other "years.
