From Gulf of St, Laurence and

modern irtgtautity leas discovered a
most efficient tni,de of "bating houses
in winter—ill at of. hot -mien Furnace
and caldron ttre samotimes, in the case-.
of hospital, or other large buildings;
placed at a distance from the apart ate
-
uxents to be warmed. In such eases
pipes conduct heated water into the`
radiators and back again when cooled.
Thus, cold water is continually enter-
ing the buttom of the caldron while
heated water flaws from the top. It•
is now proposed to apply thewarm
waters of the Gulf Stream to the oast
ern portions of Canada and the United
States, that such regions might enjoy
a more even temperature throughout -
the year and permit a more iixxurious
vegetation,
The closing of the Straits of Belie
Isle, which are about 11 miles wide
at the narrowest point, thereby shut
ting out the Labrador current, the
harbinger of Arctic blasts and the
reason why St. Lawrence ports are
closed during the winter months,
would divert the "Cold Wall" to the
Atlantic and allow the warm waters
of the Torrid Zone to circulate freely
around eastern shores. Such a change,
it is thought, would increase the value:
of lands and natural resources by
billions of dollars; would greatly im-
prove living and public health condi-
tions;
ondi-tions; Would release vast quantities.
of fuel, now necessary for heating.
purposes, to be used in industry;
would be the means of augmenting the
populatio'7n, commerce and revenues of
Canada.
Advantage Would Outweigh Cost.
The project has been pronounced
possible by engineers, The cost would
be great, but nothing in comparison
to the results to be gained. The sav-
ing in fuel alone to the benefited
areas, it is thought, would repay the
entire expenditure.
The Labrador current sends a large
volume of water through the Strait
pf Belle Isle; thence south-westerly
along the coast of Nova Scotia, New
Brunswick and the United States, cre-
ating a cold current, technically
known as the "Cold Wall" between
the Gulf Stream and the North Am-
erican coast.
The climetic effect of this. Labrador
current on Canada covers a wide ex-
tent of territory. It brings winter ear-
lier;
"���'�'���
makes spring later, and materi-
ally
aterially lowers the winter temperature.
In the Province of Prince Edward
Island, having an area of 2,184 square
cites, and a population of about 100,-
000, the only disadvantage this fertile
island labors under is its long winter,
owing to the piling up of ice in the
Gulf of St. Laurence under the low
temperatures caused by the Labrador
current.
The portions of the Province of
Quebec having water frontage on the
estuary of the River St, Lawrence, the
Gulf of St, Lawrence and the Strait of
Belle Isle, including the Laurentian
Highland region, a substantial portion
of the valley of the St. Lawrence and
the Island,. of Anticosti, the Bird Is-
lands and the Magdalen Islands:id
Throughout all these areas the win-
ters are long and cold and the sum-
mers short and hot.
Benefit of the Gulf Streams.
The Province of New Brunswick
has an area of about 28,000 square
miles and a population of about 400,-
000. The winter conditions through-
out the entire province are rendered
more difficult by the influence of the
Labrador current,
Tine Provence of Nova Scotia has an
area of about 22,000 square miles and
a population of about 500,000.
In explanation of the certainty which
is stated of benefits resulting from
the bringing inshore of the Gulf
Stream current, one may, as.a, particu-
lar instance, refer to the case of At-
lantic City, New Jersey. which owes
its world-wide fame as a winter re ti
entirely to the there local effect of t a
Gulf Stream.
The stream May, by way of average,
be stated to pass 20 miles offshore at
Cape Hatteras; 60 miles off Nantuc-
ket Shoals, and 120 miles southward
of Nova Scotia; the warm waters of
the Gulf Stream being there shut off
from the Canadian coast by the "Cold
Wall" of the Labrador current,
through which no heat can pass.
• One More Thing.
Pat and Bridget were being married,
and the whole village was astir. Pat
was resplendent in a tail coat (bor-
rowed), patent leather boots (too
tight for him), a white vest, and a
bright green tie; Bridget shone glori-
ous in most of the colors of the rain-
bow.
The fateful words wore spoken, anti
the happy pair wanted down the aisle
and out into the street, where a great
crowd greeted them with loud cheers.
At last they were safely ensconced
in their cab, and Bridget sank back
with a sigh of satisfaction,

"there's only one thing Oi regret. If
