As for the five dams. that plan was 'ehanged when such an ideal site tor a big dam was found near Fergus-but nobody has told Waterloo about that either, though readers of the News-Record (and of some other papers in the valley) knew it long ago.

Canada is becoming one of 1hr grout ship producing countries at the. world. and due to the war this great industrial development should continue because we have everything here with which to ma- nufacture peace-time needs, and we will have a great army of skilled workers. Munbi-rs of the Committee were tremendously impressed with the work which girls are doing in these plants. They are operating ma- chines which one would have thought a girl could not handle. A great many of these girls have taken matriculation and some are college graduates. The plants are so constructed that nothing is left undone for the comfort of the em- phyecs and in every instance their contentment with conditions was noticeable. The industries we visited mann- fucture cverything from a [an weighing three or tour pounds to the anti-aircraft guns which with the carrier weigh six or seven, (housand pounds. The unfortunate thing about this whole picture is that all this effort. skill and inge- nuity is going into the manufacture of something which is made only lo destroy.
