The accompanying cut was made from the architect's drawing
and illustrates the new Head Office Building now in the course of
erection for Imperial Bank of Canada. The building will stand at
the south-east corner of King and Bay Streets, Toronto, and will
house the chief Toronto =Branch as well as the Head Office executive,.
and staff. It is to be a bank building, six stories in height with a,
frontage of approximately one hundred feet on each street. The
building will be on lines of classic beauty, dignified, characteristic•
and thoroughly modern in the utilitarian sense. It will be a striking:''".
example of what can be accomplished in Canadian design and con-
struction with Canadian materials. Every. thought has been: given
to the employment of Canadian labour, both in the purchase -,of -'mat-
erials and equipment and in the actual construction. of. the Building
itself.
The stone used in this building, for example, is an entirely Uan-
adian product from the quarrying of the stone from the Lake St.
John Quarry near Oriilia- to the cutting and setting .of the finished '
material. The guiding principle in the awarding of contracts is to
deal with those contractors and supply houses able to furnish "Made
in Canada" goods, even down' to the production 'of ores, 'etc.,` where
this is possible.
The Architects are Messrs. Sproatt & Rolph, the Consulting-
Engineers—Messrs. Harkness & Hertzberg and H. H. Angus, and the
general contract is being carried out by the Redfern Construction Co.
Limited.
Drought -Resisting
Wheat Emerging
In Canada
Edmonton, Alta, — High grade
wheat, equal in quality to Reward
wheat; possibly better in yield and
having the property of drought re-
sistance, is practically a certainty
now although complete development
may take another five years, it is in-
dicated at the University of Alberta
labratories wLere it is being bred.
The new type of wheat, which so
far has been accorded neither a name
nor a nickname is being developed
under the direction of Dr. O. S. Aam-
odt, head of the field crops depart-
ment of the university.
Experiments have been under way
on the new grain far the past six
weeks, it was stated and have reach-
ed the point now where ultimate suc-
cess is regarded as assured,
Reward wheat has been cross bred
with two Siberian drought resisting
wheats in the experiments so far, but
it is possible that another wheat of
greater yield than either one will be
added to produce ultimately a grain
of high' grade milling quality.
The Siberian wheats imported by
Dr. Aamodt when he came to the Uni-
• versity of Alberta from the Uni-
versity of Minnesota 6 years ago are
'Caesium and Multurum, developed by
Russian natural scientists 1-0 years
ago to meet the drought 'conditions of
Siberia, which are almost exactly like
those in the southern parts of Can-
ada's prairies.
Both Caesium and Multurum haw -
ever, have low grade milling quail -
.ties which would .obviate their popu-
parity in Canada. It was to achieve

Scholarship Not
Always Awarded
To Best .Students
Many a Canadian medical student
cherishes the high ambition one day
to be able to take post -graduate work
at the University of Vienna.. This
term, at the University of Alberta,
sees the uncommon anomaly of a
Vienna student continuing his studies
at a Canadian university.
Emmerich Munz me,t in Vienna and
married Melmi Silbermann, whose
home at Barons, Alta., and who
was studying medicine in the Austri-
an capital. He decided to take his
fourth year in Edmonton, going on to
Paris or Edinburgh or perhaps back
to Vienna next year.
"When one travels," he e-:plained
to a student reporter, "one's philos-
ophy is broader, but the person who
always must live in the one country
must have the philosophy of his
newspaperman."
Munz told of many differences in
university life on the continent.
There the student, rather than the
professor, is the important part of a
university. If the professor is 110
good, no students attend his classes.
about one-third of the student body
in Vienna are women. Scholarships
,are not necessarily. >awarded to the
'best studeal'•but 'ttyii14ny deserving

Fewer Families on Relief
It is satisfactory to know that
there were 1,069 fewer families on
relief in Winnipeg on November 10
than at the same time last year. . .
The number of families on relief has
declined continuously since .last
Winter until the present time. On
June 2 there were 7,146 families re-
ceiving relief; on September 1 there
were 5,995, and on November 10
there were 5,979, or 16 fewer faliu=
lies than two months ago.—Winnipeg

Road Safety
Says the London Daily Herald:—
The decision of the Ministry of
Transport to collect and study an-
alytical reports of all road accidents
throughout the country is eminently
sensible. A little more thought, a
little more experiment and a little
less slapdashery would not be a
bad thing. . . It is not a question
of penalising pedestrians for the
benefit of motorists. It is a question
of organising and disciplining ped-
estrians for their own safety. There.
is too much nonsense talked of the
"rights of pedestrians," "rights of
cyclists," "rights of motorists," and
the like. It is not a matter of rights
but a matter of co-operation for the
common safety. And no road user, of
whatever category, should object to
reasonable restrictions for his own
behefit and that of others,

Coronte Coiffure For
Sobbed -Haired Girl
The coronet coiffure has long been
a favoatte with smart women who
like to season sophistication with a
dash of quaintness. This year it's
more popular than ever. Simple to
arrange and easy to keep in place,
it gives the girl with bobbed hair a
chance to wear a long-haired coiffure
if and when she desires.
A thick braid is the only absolutely
necessary requirement. If you sav-
ed your long hair. when you had it
bobbed the first time, have a braid
made out of it. If not, you may buy
one that matches the color and tex-
ture of your own locks.
Brush the hair back smoothly from
the forehead and arrange rows and
rows of tiny curls across the back
and around the ears. Then put the
braid., up over the crown of your
head so that the ends of it reach just
in front of each ear, disappearing
under the curls. Pin the braid firm-
ly to the curls and to the srnooth hair
on top of your head as well. For
formal occasions fasten small jewel-
led stars in the braid.
If your hair is long, 'the proceditte
is even nioreg,eirnple. Part your hair
down the middle of the back of the
head, driving it into two equal
parts. Braid each section and then,
crossing the braids at the back,
bring them up over the top of the
head and pin them in place.

nearly two miles and a quarter, in
length. There are six approach
spans, the latter being supported by
concrete piers sunk in the bed of the
