If there is anything in the suggestion ofter made in recent times that tobacco and liquor are not stopped for the duration of the war, because of the immense source of taxation these industries prove, then the governments surely should look upon mining with more respect and consideration than they do. It is true that tobacco and liquor are fruitful sources of taxation for provinces and Dominion. Items have appeared suggesting that people who drink or smoke are doing patriotic work because of the large proportion of the cost to the consumer of these articles that goes in taxation. If governments seriously consider such arguments is the other $1,106.60 per man paid by the indusâ€" try. This is special taxation with a vengeance, and the mining industry is certainly feeling this form of revengeful revenue at its expense. Simply as a contribution to the general scheme of taxation, it might be expected that the government in its own interests would give special care and attention to the mining industryâ€"the bird that lays such golden eggs for the powersâ€"thatâ€"be. But if there is any such kindly thought or consideration, govâ€" ernments in the past have managed very comâ€" pletely to dissemble their love. such work by the Institute, are toâ€"day taking a noteworthy part in making munitions. For work requiring special care they are in special demand, because they have the earnestness, the patience, the sincere desire to give of theirvery best without stint. To mention just one local case, the gentleâ€" man who conducted the Institute‘s little shop alongside the Golafields theatre last year, is doing special war work in Toronto this year. Literally hundreds of blind persons in Canada are doing good work in munition plants, in aircraft factories, and in other departments. Surely, it is the part of patriotism to help the Institute that made this possible. It is beyond question that the Canadian National Institute for the Blind is helping to make Canada greater and better. The Institute was founded after the last war by men who were blinded themselves, many of them suffering that handicap while on active service. The Institute planned to give blind persons, new hope, new inâ€" spiration, new opportunity, new purpose. The Inâ€" stitute has been training blind persons in trades and occupations and businesses. But it has done greater service than that. It has produced a group of cheerful, helpful, earnest people facing the burden of darkness with courage and cheer and an inner light that shines to shame the grumâ€" blers who have no handicap. The gallant folk of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind have helped themselves, have helped each other, have helped Canada. If that is not true patrio--l tism it will surely do till a better is shown. As: another patriotic call this weekâ€"and on Saturday, The Tag Day for the Blindâ€"give, give generously to the cause of the blind. 4 as that they should take thought of the gold minâ€" ing industry. In the annual report of the MciInâ€" tyre Porcupine Mines, it is noted that the mine pays taxes at the rate of $1,106.60 per man emâ€" ployed. This, of course, is apart altogether from the taxes paid by the worker himself. Another item in the report reads:â€""Average income tax withheld, per man employed, based upon March, 1943 figures, $235.00. The average employee, of course, pays more than that $235.00 per year in taxes, but that amount is collected by the mine for the government as required by law. And then on top of that high taxation of the individual there definition of patriotism. ©‘"Patriotism," the bo said, "is anything that will help win the war an make Canada greater and better.‘" Under tha good definition, the annual appeal of the Canadiat National Institute for the Blind is a patriotic call The men and women of the Canadian Nationa Institute for the Blind are helping win the war Their skilled and trained workers, prepared for jus to patriotic th be sure and cf and generous t vears of age t matter the country may dream as it pleases but will finally wake to the fact that opportunity has been missed and muffed. On the other hand thought and study and purpose may yet build mining into an important and valuable asset in Canada‘s progress and prosperity. GRAVEL AND SANDâ€"AND PLACER and giving.

The Third International was a body with headquarters in Russia and paid agents all over the earth. The avowed purpose of the Comintern was to create what it termed a "world revolution.‘ The paid agents of the Comintern sought to rouse trouble of any kind wherever they were and openly advocated a change of form of government by the use of force. The work of these agents created a dislike of the Soviet in many lands.

No doubt the editor wrote the price at $2.00 per year, but the linotype operator improved it by dropping all nonâ€" sensical modesty and putting the price at $200.00 1¢ Finns W ction +of inday m arcely be 9‘0 hobd {o o e e oo.oioin‘M**yfiiMWO o abe aPs aBe ohe ate ate ate afo s 4 o B i€ Mrs. Robson was y player, and J.
