Mr. Matsunâ€" aga has taken up the matter of a Jaâ€" panese national educational exhibit with his government and has asked that a number of these most gorgeous and wonderful birds ‘be included.

In former years these wonderful feathers, which grow out from the ‘bird‘s back, were used in heraldry and as decorations by Japanese officials. The breed is fed a special food, and growth . of ‘six inches in a month has been noted in its feathers.

GREAT WORK BENG DONE BY CANADIAN RFD CROSS Campaign for Funds Now Under Way to ‘‘Carry On‘‘ the Good Efforts for National Health and Welfare Since the war, on its peaceâ€"time programme of health conservation for the people of Canada and welfare work, the Canadian Red Cross has spent over $7,000,000. _ About oneâ€" half of this great sum has been exâ€" pended for the disabled members of the Canadian Expeditionary Forces and their families; the other half has gone into the public health or health ‘educational activities of the Society. Last year through grants to Provinâ€" cial Divisions and on the national work 4 sum of over $850,000 was spent in the Dominion. The largest item in the expendiâ€" tures is that of $3,500,00 for care of the exâ€"soldier in all Provinces; then comes the cost of establishing and maintaining the thirtyâ€"nine Outpost ospitals throughout the frontier secâ€" tions of the Dominion; that of orgaâ€" nizing the army of 140,000 children in the Junior Red Cross, one of the most outstanding of its contributions These figures serve to indicate in some measure the‘ extent of the imâ€" mense business now carried on by the Red Cross in its capacity as an auxiliâ€" ary agency of governments and as the handâ€"maid of the people in its task of scientific care of the national health. This task was shown to have beâ€" come unrgently necessary because of the revelations of unfitness made durâ€" ing the war and it was fortunate cirâ€" cumstance that with the funds of the Society available when the Armistice was declared, cer accruing since that time, the Red Cross has been able to carry forward so large and so indisâ€" pensable a programme of public welâ€" fare work. . to health education in Canada; the initiating of the Public Health courses for nurses which have since been taken over by six Canadian Universiâ€" ties; the publication and distribution of nearly 6,000,000 pieces of health j literature; the institution of the Seaâ€" port Nurseries at Halifax, Quebec and Saint John in which the Red Cross welcomes and assists all mothers and their children among incoming famiâ€" lies; the establishment of Home Nursâ€" ing Classes in each Province in which over 12,000 women and girls have reâ€" ceived this valuable training; and the provision of such Disaster Relief as has been necessitated by reason of forest fires, epidemics, cycones or other catastrophies. t i In order that all these services may be adequately sustained and to proâ€" vide for the needs of the immediate future, the national Red Cross reâ€" quires the sum of $1,000,000. _ That is the figure at which t‘}Â¥e present campaign is aiming, andâ€"as ithis is the first nationâ€"wide appeal for support made by the Society in ten years, it is confidently expected that the requisite amount will be forthcoming. The campaign is to ‘be carried on from Empire Day, on May 24th, unâ€" til Dominion Day, July 1st. During that period the people of Canada from coast to coast will be asked to do their part to make it possible for the Canadian Red ‘Cross to still furâ€" ther develop its great programme of national conservation and public welâ€" .utn..utututu8ututntutvgtm%?ufit?utntutut?nt%x% fare, PLANS UNDER WAY TO WORK ~MARTIN CLAIMS IN QUEBEC says :â€"â€" **Toronto and Timmins men have secured the old Martin property m the Harricanaw district, Quebec, and are now arranging the financing of are now arranging the financing of further exploration work.
