Gold mining in Canada again broke all records in 1938, -when production totalled 4,679,685 ne ounces valued at $164,561,123 compared with 4,096,213 ne ounces valued at $143,326,493 in 1937. The output which includes the gold bul- lion from gold mines, gold in blister copper pro- duced in Canadian smelters and gold in ores ex- ported accounted for 51 per cent. of the total value of Canadian primary metals production and 37 per cent. of the total value of the entire Can- adian mineral industry. Last year the estimated avera'g'e price of a troy ounce of ne gold, in Canadian funds, was 5335.165 compared with $34.99 in the preceding year. All across the Canadian mineral front, from Nova Scotia on the east to British Columbia on the west and in the Northwest Territories, many new gold-mining-; developments were reported dur- ing` the year. * !< * * While prospecting` was less active- than in 1937. enlar;:emr=nt and improvement programmes were conducted at many old and well-established mines, and .-:eve1~a'. new mines were developed in remote re_<:ion. where airplane transportation continued to play an important part.

At a farewell Cbanquet given in his honor at Calgary, Rt. Hon. R. B. Bennett gave an address on the practice and philosophy of the Christian faith. `The function took place at the Central United Church, of which Mr. Bennett has been a member for 41 years. Perhaps because he was among friends and old associates, the former Prime Minister of Canada spoke frankly and bluntly, and told his audience that the -Church had failed." -He could not say where it had failed or why, but was convinced of its failure. The proof was that `there were millions of men at one another s throats in Europe and Asia. Having dis- cussed the ;problem and its chances of solution with leaders of the Oxford Group, with the Archbishop of Canterbury in England, and with leaders of the Roman Catholic Church, Mr. Ben- nett said he was convinced that the only method for world peace was through the churches operat- ing on individual minds. I m afraid, he said, that we can't expect very much from the mass mind,---from mass opinion. We must secure pro- per individual` opinion. 1n(11Vl(1ua1"opuuuu. It is obvious from the press reports of Mr. Bennett's talk that it was all the churches, all communions, and not any one or more in parti- cular, that he had in mind when passing his judg- ment of failure on their work. The judgment may be right or wrong-accord- ing to the meaning Mr. Bennett intended to carry when he `used the word failure. If he meant that the Church, or Churches,-or still more broadly, the King'dom,-had lost some battles in the ght with the powers of darkness, he stated what was correct, but what also was a mere com- monplace. If he meant that Christianity was in collapse, he spoke with the rash impatienec of one who failed to take the long` view. The work of the Kingdom is not to be measured by year, or even eras, but by aeons of time. Even reviewed for a comparatively few centuries, the moral and spiritual conquests of the Kingdom have far out- classed and outweigihed its setbapks. There can be no question of the progress men have made in everything that counts for betterment, during the past thousand years, the past century, or even the past lgenei-ation. -Nor can there be any question that the main vitalizing; force of that progress has been Christianity. My Rn11nnff is via-ht. however. in Sll ,`1'6Sl.i1`i_'I been L;nr1st1ann:y. Mr. Bennett is right, however, suggesting that religion spreads from the individuals to the masses, and in saying that we can t expect much from the mass mind, for indeed, there is no such thing in existence. `The material with which the Church works is necessarily the individual, al- though its inuence_ spreads far beyond its peni- tents, its communicants, its adherents. So far is the Kingdom from havinr: failed, that it has in- directly raised the standards of conduct among` races and nations outside the limits of Christen- Jaw-. dom. E112 Earrir Ahnanrr 1-: ....

While Barrie may not have the facilities to offer in the way of an abandoned fac- tory site, there should neyertheless be some con- centrated e ort on the part of the town and business men to induce new industries to locate here. With many advantages to offer in the way of attractive power rates, excellent railroad facil- ities, close proximity to Toronto and many other natural attractions, Barrie, as an industrial site, has many good talking` points which should be of interest to rms located in larger centres such as Toronto where taxes are higher and labor condi- tions uncertain.
