Ac- tually, however, the value of gold fluc- tuates to correspond to the rise and {all of commodity prices. Anything is worth only what it will purchase in the necessities of life. The "relative" value of gold is probably higher today than any time in recent history, because a given amount of gold will purchase a comparatively large amount of com- modltles. For those countries. such as Canada. that have clung to the gold ties in that connection being almost unlimited.” “There are two sound statements in the above quotation. One is that there cannot be an excess of gold, and the other that gold mining offers employ- ment of which the possibilities are al- most unlimited. Beyond these, the in- ference that governments can go out and engage in gold mining in the same way that they can engage in the pro- duction of power or the operation of railroads is so much nonsense. “A cozmnon hellef that. frequently leads to misunderstanding is that the en on added value in recent yea] mss the 13 per'cent. additional which gold mines enjoyed thrm change compensation in 1932. “Valuable as it is when convex to bullion. however, gold in the has no value, and must first it becomes a commercial pron Those who talk loosely about tl Prosperity of successful gold Lat they forget the failures. fritory served by The Newsâ€"Ch 181% are at. least a doaen aha: ”Denies where. at, one tune. ons wen: conducted wit}! op 1d hope.

In the recent municipal elections, the candidates for the reeve- ship of Teck township were G. D. O'Meara and M. Hunt. In Alice town- ship, near Pembroke, the candidates were Reeve O’Meara, opposed by Coun- cillor Stanley Hunt. In each case the O'Meara won. a big boom on at once, and there is not the slightest doubt but that some good discoveries would result. There are sections of the Porcupine, there are areas near here and in the Kirkland Lake field that would amply repay prospecting from all accounts. If the interest roused by the classes for pros- pectors will create an equal interest in those who are able to provide grub- stakes, the result will assuredly be of great advantage to the North and to the country at large. Globe. for instance, that they planned to get financial backing (a grub-stake) from friends and acquaintances, and then to spend the summer in the North searching for gold. If they can get the necessary grub-stake and even one or two make good the whole thing will be well worth while. Without any de- sire to discourage any of them, how- ever, and even knowing that many or those enrolled for the Toronto classes are experienced prospectors, it is diffi1 cult .to build too much hope on pros- pecting alone by those who have had but little experience. It is a common thing to hear that such and such a famous mine was discovered and staked by a man with little prospecting ex- perience. There may be cases where this idea is true on the surface, but generally it may be accepted that old- time and experienced men in practi- cally every case had a hand in all the big discoveries made in this country. If the four hundred from Toronto, however, have the true prospector’s spirit. and approach their efforts next summer with the same faith and de~ termination that has marked the work of the old-time prospectors here, some good is likely to result. The very ac- tivity of any groupaispmtically sure to loosen up: the purse strings of others and allow old-time prospectors to get grub-stakes and go to work. The whole mining business moves on the principle of “rushes", and four hun- dred extra prospectors in the field will make a general rush for the North Land. Of course, if grub-stakes could be secured by all the old-time pros- pectors in the country there would be have been previous classes for pros- pectoxs held in Toronto, but the inter- est shown this year is very easily double that of any previous year. Toronto newspapers explain the re- markable attendance at the prospec- tors‘ classes in the city this year as due to the present bsom in gold mining, to- gether with the unemployment that has hit so many people. A number of those enrolled in the classes told The Toronto Globe, for instance. that they planned Toronto Folk Want to be Prospectors More Than 100.

Acknowledgement is made by the Acting Director of the co-operation and assistance of members of the Geologi-i cal Survey staff who have devoted time and thought to the exhibition of pa- laeontological, geological, and miner- alogical material, and other Govern-l ment departments that have aided in many ways. Appreciation is also ex- pressed to individuals and institutions who have made donations or exchanges, and special mention is made of a donation from the estate of the late Dr. H. M.

The illustrated lectures given each winter continue to be a popular fea- ture of Museum activities, states the report and particular acknowledgment Fleld work by the National Museum of Canada in 1931 was confined to bio- logical survey in the vicinity of King- ston, Ontario, and to painting, and making casts of food fishes taken at Halifax. according to the annual re- port of the Acting Director, recently issued. In former years botanical, zoo- logical and anthropological investiga- tions were undertaken in the field with the two-fold object of continuing the scientific study of the flora and fauna, and the aborigines, of Canada, and of collecting material for exhibition in the Museum, but the need for economy resulted in the temporary suspension of these surveys in 1931.

St. Pat’s Club, Kirkland Lake, has Not- able Line-up in the Senior N.O.H.A. Series for the Present Season. “There is, however, no apparent il- legality, as the literature which sug- gests profits as high as a hundred thousand dollars clearly sets out what the transaction is, and the purchaser of the article knows quite well he is paying many times the proper price. Fortunately, no one will be seriously hurt, because before long all the pe--â€" ple who will buy thirty-cent purses for three dollars, or other articles at a similar relative cost, will be satisfied. They will be left holding the article which they could have bought in any store, will have lost a few dollars, while the promoters of the scheme, and perhaps those who are first in it, will have made some profits. It stands to reason that it cannot last very long, and if people are unwise enough to buy articles at what they know to be many times their price it does not seem that they can have any serious complaint. After all, the number of people who would «be interested in carrying out such an obviously unsound method oi distributing merchandise must be com- paratively limited. “There are records of epidemics of this type of ‘endless-chain’ schemes for obtaining quick profit, and .they have always occurred at a time when the public generally was particularly anxious do find any new way of mak- ing money. The plan, however, has not satisfied everybody and recently there have been a large number writing in to George A. Drew, Ontario Securities Commis~ sioner, in regard .to the large number of chain sales organizations now do- ing business in the province. In the January issue of one of the men’s wear trade papers there is also reference to the plan, the trade paper roundly con- demning the method. The Ontario Securities Commissioner, however, does not condemn the plan. Commissioner Drew has issued the following state- ment in the matter:â€" “I have received numerous inquiries about the legality of get-rich-quic): chain sales organizations which are at present flooding the Province of On- tario with literature promising fabul- ous returns for selling billfolds, foun- tain pens. flashlights, etc., at prices around ten times their value. Recently there has been much of the “pyramid.” "progress" or “endless chain“ style of selling in 'I'immins and district. A number or salesmen have been doing quite a business in this line. though it must be admitted that the plan has not been as generally accept- ed here as in some other places. When it was started here there was consider- able talk about it and some even ques- tioned its legality. It was answered at once that there was nothing illegal about it and in fact in the way it was carried on here there was not even anything wrong as the whole plan was so clearly explained that anyone enter- ing into it knew exactly what they were going into. It may also be noted that in England the plan has been tak- en up in great way. It is said that many who were formerly in the regular brokerage business dropped out alto- gether from that line to go into the “pyramid sales" “progressive plan“ or “chain system of selling" or the sever- al other names by which the scheme is known.
