TECHNICAL EDUCATION
Canada's Backward Position Shown
In a G ment Report
in 1910 the Dominion Government
appointed a Royal C,ommianion to en-
quire into the needs and equipment
of ty Dominion respecting industrial
tral ne and technical education. and
Ito the systems and methods of
technical instruction obtaining In
other countries. The following Is
from the report of the Commissioners.
showing the need of industrial and
technical education in Canada: "Until
recently Canada was an Interested
and debiting spectator of the move-
ments for industrial efficiency. The
trebling of young workers to deftness
In manipulation and technique, and to
an understanding of the principles and
scienees which He at the base of all
trades and industries, was not pro-
vided for in2the courses. When manu•
factures, goods were wanted la in-
creasing quantities and variety, and
towns and cities were growing by
leaps and bounds, It was discovered
that there had been practically no
organization of means for' preparing
the hundreds of thousands of young
people, to beorne the best qualified
ardeans, farmers and housekeepers athn
e world. The country's growing
wealth was ample for the costbut
the educational work was becoming
bookish 311 the extreme, and, worse
than that, was developing into school
systems that had few points of con-
tact with or relation to Industrial,
agricultural or housekeeping life."
WEDDING RING FINGER
Traditional Reason For Choice of
Fourth on Left Hand
There is a very ancient belief the
a blood vessel extends from the has
of the fourth flngcr of the left han
to the heart, whence, as is alleged
the choice of that linger for the wed
ding ring. In literature allusion t
is inade as the "yens amoria," o
love's vein., finlike most notions o
the kind, Oils idea is entirely correct
for a vein does arise directly at th
root of the ring finger and. runnln
over the back of the hand. flnds 1
way through the "royal" vein. th
"axillary," the "subclavian" and the
"innorninate" to the heart. This ves
ael is very conspicuous, standing ou
clearly when the hand hangs limply
downward.
The reason for putting the ring on
the fourth finger. however, Is prob
ably quite different. Its use for the
purpose goes back to pr historic
Omen, end dts selection is likely to
have been due to the fact that It is
the least free In its, movements of
all Angers. Accordingly, a ring en-
circling it will Intisrfard less with the
use of the hand than If placed on
any other digit. It happens that the
extensor tendon of the fourth ranger
is attached to theme of the third And
fifth finger* by cross -bands which re-
strict the movements of the ring ,fin•
ger conniderably. Anybody may test
this for himself by holding the third
and fifth fingers forcibly bent and
tiling at the same time to extend
the ring finger.

The increase in business in force was $3,000,000 grea' r than

The Company's Sction in waiving all restrictions as to Active Service
under policies issued prior to the declaration of war has meant a very
considerable additional strain, which however, has been fully met out of
the earnings of the Company, in addition to the amount required to
maintain the present liberal profit scale. Quinquennial distributions of
profits in 1917 will be larger than ever.
