Commission One of his brain storms result ed in setting forth the wealth of water power in Ontario and Quebec in such manner that the active interest of 11011 Adam Beck then Minister of Power in the Ontario Gov ernment was instantly sectired In 1913 found new outlet for his energies by founding the advertising agency of Smith and Son Ltd an organization he headed until year ago when he retired front active work his place as president of the company being taken by his son Adam As an advertising man Mt Smith introduced to Toronto the system of having newspapers make sworn statements of their circulation The editor for some years Mr Smith lived long life and his record His picturesque person clad in cutaway coat broad hat and flowing bow tie moving scdately and unbur riedly for so long

stream that runs through swamp has its own flood control system Its waters checked by the tangled growth along its banks are unlikely to sweep down in spring freshct to carry away valuabletopsoil The soil of most swamps stillis rich black and silty But it doesnt tempt the farmer any more He knows that the 01d swamp can serve him best it kept the way it was left by nature When pioneers started to clear land they usually sought right away to drain any Sillamp they found on their property clear away the shrubbery that coveredwit and turn the reclaimed land into field They argued that from farming stand point the swamp in its natural state was waste land They said too that often the swamp had formed part of an ancient river bed and its black earth was capable of pro ducing good crops The farmers of today are coming to deal differently with the swamp land that re mains They preserve it as an asset to their property The new attitude toward the swamp stems from recent interest in
