"The history and heroism of the men who worked in the early collieries in Nova Scotia is a book that should be: in everyone‘s «library," said Mr. Dwyer as he told of the early hardships of the industry. In this reâ€" gard he mentioned in particular the dangers from openâ€"flame miner‘s lights and the drudgery of underground haulâ€" age which was a..ll done by either horse or man power forty yeas ago. "The modern engineer has a great deal to look back on and inspire him," it hadn‘t been for the engineer during the recent period of depression the story of Canada would have been much difâ€" ferent to what it actually is," he deâ€" clared. "The geologists and engincers have been responsible for the beautiful plants we have here in the Porcupine Camp. Without enginecrs these plants would not be here," Mr. Dwyer continuâ€" ed. "All down through the years we see the red thread of disaster but the work of the engineer has been a sayâ€" inz grace.

The Premier did not promise any assistance to muniâ€" cipalities in this connection. Concerning educational requiremen‘s of the North: Attention was drawn to the large increase in secondary pupils in schools and to the problem of gainâ€" ful employment upon graduation. It was suggested that such gainful emâ€" ployment might be afforded to a perâ€" centage of such pupils in the protecâ€" tion and care of our forest lands and in ~reforestation. In any event the problem is a serious one requiring the closest study by the government. cial possibilities at the present time and that it would be hopeless to conâ€" sider the use of the same in compeâ€" titicn with other fuels now obtainabis elsewhere. He further stated that at some time in the future occasion might arise when the development of the field would be warranted. In dealing with this matter the Premier touched upon useless and needless expenditurs of governments in the past in the consiruction of and extension of the T. N. O. Raillway to such area. Concerning Two: The Premier statâ€" ed that the lignite deposits situated at Onokawana, 126 miles north of Cochâ€" rane, in view of reports received on investigations made, have no commerâ€" such taxes, namely over $8,000,000, while the Province received a little over $3,000,000 and the municipalities reâ€" ceived only $800,000.

During the presentation oi | this resolution the Premier touched *upon the necessity for establishing a sanctuary at Moosonee for the preserâ€" vation of our wild birds, especially the geese,. Mr. Nixon stated that the Govâ€" ernment intended to deal with this matter and that plans were already l under way. In New York he went to see a burâ€" lesque show and found it poor stuff. The stripping didn‘t seem too objectionâ€" ableâ€""in these days it means practicalâ€" ly nothing"â€"but the gags of the comeâ€" dians tended to turn his stomach, and the laughter of the audiences made him wonder. Old Country and U.S. Laugh at Same Jokes Not only the Ontario Associated Boards of Trade but also the Toronto Board of Trade particularty and the Hamilton Board of Trade, fully enâ€" dorsed the resolutions from the North and gave the utmost assistance.

LA NGDON, President, Northern Ontario Associated Boards of Trade. Humor United Nations is Idea of Comedian. Asked if there was a clause in ths British contracts permitting the actor to get out if anything salacious was inâ€" jécted into the lines during rehearsal, he said it wasn‘t neededâ€"the play had to pass the censor before rehearsa‘s started, and after that no offensive changes could be made. He thinks the censorship is a necessary institution, and the present censor an admirable and broadâ€"minded official. In New York he went to see a burâ€" lesque show and found it poor stuff. Concerning Three: The Premier was pleased to learn that Northern areas appreciated the work done by the Govâ€" ernment, He pointed out that during the past six years the Government has spent more money on road construction and improvement in Northern Ontario than in Southern Ontario and in th‘is connection drew attention to the fact that Southern Ontario was much mo‘re densely populated than the North but that this was offset by the tremendous distances throughout the North. The Premier stated that the Government, through the Honourable Mr. McQuesâ€" ten, Minister of Highways, had, in 1937, embarked upon an extensive road proâ€" gramme and stated that the Governâ€" ment hoped to be able to carry.on with such programme. The Premier intiâ€" mated that the Transâ€"Canada highway would be completed but made no reâ€" ference whatsoever as to which route it would follow. Mr. Leister â€" proncunced Lesterâ€" gives the talkies credit for familiarising the British with American wisecracks and the Americans with British humor. He himself likes American wit and American slang, which he thinks adâ€" mirably expresses the spirit of an exâ€" tremely bright and shrewd people. Same Sense of Humour He has no words to describe Ameriâ€" can hospitality. Boston and Philadelâ€" phia overwhelmed him. He found too that the comedy got the same laughs, in the same places and to about the same extent, in the States as in London. He was 10 months with "The Houseâ€" master‘‘ in London. Before that he had a succession of parts that ran for someâ€" thing like two years at a time. In beâ€" tween he did a lot of directing, filling the director‘s position for Lena Ashâ€" well. Take the case of "The Housemaster", the Ian HMay comedy that is appsearing at the Royal Alexandra this week. Lee Shubert saw it in London and liked it, He invited the lead, Frederick Leister, to come over to the States and direct it. They tried it on Philadelphia and it went so "big" for two weeks that they took it to Boston before trying it on Toronto and Broadway. Boston was to have it for two weeks but kept it for six. Boston went wild over it, and slightly disarranged the programme. ‘Now, after Toronto, it goes ~straight to Broadway, missing Washington, which was on the original itinerary. There is one difference between directing British and American actors. The English contract is binding on both actor and manager before the company goes into rehearsal. In the States the first week is probationary for both. That means that the American actor who needs a job is so "jittery" and so cager to make good during the first week that the time is almost wasted. When Mr. Leister was a boy, he had a baritone voice and a hankering for the stage. He used the one to satisfy the other, and got a start in musical comedy. He had five years of that and then he got a scare. One evening he went to see a man who had been one of his bedyhood‘s idols in musical comedy. The star was old, stout and wheezy. The worshipper looked into the future, saw himself getting like that and decided it was time to get out and go after his first loveâ€"straight actin«‘. His first big part was "The Flag Lieuenant." "The Whip" was another. He has kept his figure beautifully and is a tall, distinguishedâ€"looking Englishâ€" man, but he prefers straight comedy to musical comedy and is glad he got the warning at the time it came. (By C. B.â€"Pyper) Friendship between British and Americans is on a surer basis than evet beforceâ€"they are beginning to underâ€" stand each other‘s jokes. Straight Comedy Generally Two Jobs at Once | â€"Talking about talkies, he said the English system was different from the American, in that in London an actor might do a part in films and on the stage at the same time. If a film director wanted a man ho would come to a westâ€"end theatre and borrow him during the day, and if it didn‘t mean more than three or four days, the theatre manager didn‘t mind. Bevond that, however, he was against it, as it meant too much strain on his actos. It could be done in London because the studios were only about 30 miles from the theatres. He, himself, has done parts like that in the films,. but he was too busy on the stage to take to it seriâ€" ouslyv. sanity of the British people and the government had saved the situation in one or two critical moments. He gave credit, too, to Mussolini‘s admirals and military advisors for having moderated the dictator‘s rash ambitions. In the States, among businessmen, he had noticed satisfaction over the strengthâ€" ening of Britishâ€"American friendship and the American navy programme. Need of a Canadian Comâ€" mitte on Intellectual Coâ€"operation to work with the League of Nations Orâ€" ganization for Intellectual Coâ€"operation was emphasized by the Canadian Teaâ€" chers‘ Fedcration committee, beforq the Rowell Commission at Ottawa reâ€" cently, Representaing 30,000 Canadian teachâ€" ets, the committee expressed the opinâ€" ion that such an organization was long overdue in the Dominion, pointing out that such bodies were active in 45 difâ€" ferent countries, practically all the leading countries, including all those outside the League, namely, the United States and Rrazil.
