Especially for Women—
But Not Forbidden to Men
THE PLODDER'S PETITION
Lord, let me not be too content
With life in trifling service spent,
Let me aspire.
When the days with petty cares are
filled,
Let me with fleeting thoughts be,
thrilled
'Of something higher,
Heip me to long for mental grace;
To struggle with the commonplace
I daily find.
May little deeds not bring to fruit
A crop of little thoughts to suit
A shrivelled mind.
I do not ask for place among
Great thinkers who have taught
Sting,
And scorned to bend.
Under the trifles of the hour
' I only would not lose the power
To comprehend.
and
A recent writer remarked that if
it had not been for the habit women
have of prodding on their men folk
to do better work, to aspire to higher
things, that we should still 'be in the
stone age. That was a strong state-
ment, but it wasn't made by a wo-
man,.,but by a mane so there may be
something in it. Anyway, if you
will take the trouble to consider the
eases of fhe people you know. You
will no doubt be compelled to ack-
nowledge that many a family is in
better social and financial conditions
owing to the ambitions of their wo-
men folk. They have encouraged
and asissted their men to improve
their Iot and have not been afraid to

put their shoulders to the load, 'f
need be, iii order tobring about 'bet-
ter conditions,
gen usually get the credit of be-
ing the ambitious sex, and of course
we should' be badly off if men had
not all down the. ages .,cherished -am-
bitions and worked early and late to
-carry thein out. But it cannot be
known who first fired these ambi-
tions, who aided and abetted them
in carrying them out. In many cases
we do not doubt, the mothers, the
sweethearts and the wives.
Women, who were in the majority
of cases prevented by family ties and,
the coati of "'the age from going
out into the world themselves, had
plenty .of time, while they attended
to the needs of their families, to in-
dulge in plans and schemes for the
betterment of the family position
and with these .plans and schemes
they were' not slow to acquaint their
leige lords. With women' now tak-
ing their own places in the business
world this inspiration may be to
same extent lost, It remains to be
seen whether men, without such in-
spiration, will be able to keep up the
quality' of their achievements.
'But, while women may have in
many cases filled their men folk with
courage and the energy and deter-
mination to achieve, sometimes, al-
as, they have by their lack of inter-
est,, or their deliberate pouring of
cold water on their husbands' ambi-
tions and by their lack of belief in
then sapped every ounce of ambi-
tion from them. A woman is very
foolish to voice, even if she cannot
help but acknowledge to herself, her
doubt of her husband's ability to suc-
ceed. The surest way to bring a-
bout what she really desires, her
husband's success in his work, is to
inspire him with the thought that
he can succeed; That she believes in
him and expects hint to make good.
Any man worth his salt will show it
if his wife is standing hack of him
applauding every little success and
inspiring hum' to fresh endeavours.
A cheerful, well -kept home, a wife
who believes in hint and is not afraid
or ashamed to say so and who en-
courages him by rendering what as-
sistance she can and inspiring hien
to do his best work, are tine best aids
to success in any line ,of business to
ninety-nine men out of every hun-
dred. -
It has been said by prominent
writers and artists that Canada
cannot be written or painted as the
Dominion has neither atmosphere
nor background. These points were
undeniably refuted by Miss Helen
Creighton, of Halifax, who heat week
addressed a meeting of the Ottawa
Women's Press Club and related a
few of her experiences in gathering
legends and folk lore songs in the
Maritime provinces.
Miss Creighton said that when she
first thought of the work which she
had undertaken she was dismayed.
It seemed almost impossible to ob-
tain folk songs which had been
brought over by the Scotch and the
Irish in this day when no record had
been kept at all. The success which
she has achieved is remarkable. At
the present time she has unearthed
the words and music for over one
hundred songs and has not nearly

PRAIRIE FISHERIES INCREASE'
IN VALUE
Fisheries production in the prairie
provinces in 1929 went beyond the
four million dollar " mark for the
first time. The total marketed value
of the fish caught in the commercial
fisheries of Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta last year was more than
helf a million dollars greater than in
1928 and was not far short of being
twice as great as in 1924.
In the calendar year 1924 the fig-
ures for marketed value totaled $2,-
054,162; in 1928 they were 38,528,-
897; and in 1929 they amounted to
$4,050,290. There has been steady
progress in •the prairie provinces'
fisheries in the past few years and
with new fishing waters being open-
ed up year by year and transporta-
tion facilities improved and extend-
ed the prospects are that even more
marked progress will take place in
the -years that are just ahead.
An increased .catch increases in
market value in each of the nrovine"
es, though nrineinally in Manitoba,
were noted in 1929. This means in-
creases in the number of fishermen
and increases in the value of the e-
quipment employed,
Total catch en three provinces in
1929 was approximately 562,000 hun-
dredweight, as compared with about
441,000 hundred weight in 1928, the
number of teen engaged m the fish-
eries was 7,500 in round figures,an'
increase of more than 800 and the
value of the equipment in use was
31+,986,000 or almost 'half a million
dollars more than in the preceding
year. So far as varieties of fisb are
concerned, whitefish continued in
first place in point of marketed val-
ne of catch, $1,404,000 atlhough in
Manitoba pickerel held the lead with
a value of about $98.8,600. •
While there has been marked
fisheries progress in, the prairie pro -
vines generally in the past five
Veers, the greater gains so far as the
-marketed value ab least is concerned
have been in Manitoba and Alberta.
In both provinces the annual val-
ue of the fisheries production Inas
considerabi'y more than doubled since
1924,
