Why :yet Change Chic Holiday to

Lest yearthere was eon.d•ierable
agitation to hare the date of Gode- i
Helsel civic holiday' change 1 from the a
first ''Wednesday in Amus; to the
first Monday and, ao fat as we know,
the only ground for opposing the
1
change which was taken was that the
proposal was made too late. The
rriedont of having the slate changed
early in the year if there is to he a
change is 'shown by the fart thst al-
ready events' are being se', for rivie r
Heliduy. For iniltanee the Goderieh

EARLY MORNING
New records have been made Ro BROADCASTS'
consistently of tate years by the Sun
Life Assurance Company of Canada,
that fresh ones •almost cease to
create surprise. But the fifty-fifth
annual statement, submitted at the
meeting of the shareh+olesers on the
9th instant, is especially noteworthy
because it shows that new "'level's of
business+ have been reached which
are epochal in their' nature. Never
before ' has s Canadia.a company at-
tained the billion dollar mark of as-
surance -in force. The only occasion
when it bas been approached wee
last year, when the success of the
Sun Life -Company itself forecasted
its possibility.. `
The report, now released, indicates
that the year's busines has consider-
ably exceeded that amagnt. The
actual business .reported by Presi-
dent T. B. Macaulay is $1,021,097,101
—a truly colossal amount. The in-
crease over 'last year's high figures
is almost 5.150,000,000. Nearly 60,-
000 new policies were paid for, and
after deducting amounts re -assured
the amount of new. poecies paid for
was $19$,477,057, The new business
for the year was: in excess of the
total amount carried by the Com-
pany thirteen Years ago. •
For 'fifty years the Company has
actually doubled its b •
five ,years. -This thrifty practice
was no mean achievement when the
totals ran into very much smaller
figures. That .the doubling' process
has been continued eu.nguennially
when totals have climbed ' to speh
large amounts indicates the vigor
and enterprise with which the busi-
ness of tlie Company es being'carried
on.

Some weeks ago the Central
Branch of the Young Men's Christian
Association in Toronto began broad-
casting by. radio 'eSetting lip" exer-
cises for all who want to start off
the day with a few minutes of, regu-
lar, snappy : and health -giving physi-
cal training. Hundreds of letters
have poured in to Mr.'Oscar L. Pear-
son, • Physical Director, expressing
appreciation of the pleasure and ben-
efit of these body movements.
So popular has been the program
eq pinoe it iia; uor xiooacy oq; •3eq;
of service to the public still further
by conducting a brief, program of
morning devotion, in co-operation
with the ministers of Toronto. This
too, has met with a very general and
widespread response, and from al-
most every'community in the Pro-
vince communications have been re-
ceived asking for particulars as to
the exact time and details of the de=
votional exercises. People want to
be able to tune in at the right mo-
ment.,
Monday, Wed/ser+da' and '
Friday morning from 7.1:5 .a.m• to
8.00 a,rn.. the physical exercises are
on. Starting..at 7.30 a.m. for fifteen
minutes the devotional 'services are
held under the direction oz Mr. A. J.
Kneale, Religious Work Secretary of
the Brandh. During the latter per-
iod a clergyman gives a short read-
ing .of Scripture. followed by ,a brief
exposition of the passage and a
prayer. A musical' program is in-
tcrsnersed.
