'We Canadians wouldn't line them up just that way, but let Charlie have his smile, Perhaps Gharlle doesr't know that Canada has two official languages-- French and English, and has had since 1791. Bilingual Schools, (where 'French and Bhglish are both taught) are. usual, and always have been in 'Canada, whete the interests of educa. tion gan be bést so served. But the educational matters are handled by the provinces, not by the Federal Gov- ernment, so you will understand that Sere can pot be a Canadian law, gov- erntug whether or not religious teach- ing JM carried" on therein or not.

Our Canadian statistics show the average French-Canadian family to be 6.34, not 10, as Charlies says, and the French element must look to natural France cannot spare immigrants, worse luck, while Britain sends us thousands yearly. The French in Canada com- prise about 28 per cent.-of net populs- tion, not 40 per cent, as Charlie says. The British, 55.4 per cent. The foreign elemént in the West Is i about 82 per cente-not 65 per cent, - stated by Charlie, and part of tlie 32 per cent. came from your country, the U.S. Charlle does not know that all Cana. dians will agree that one of our great est statesmen and Imperialist was & French-Canadian, Sir Wiltrid Laurier, and his period of government (fifteen years) did nothing to weaken the ties with the mother land, but rather strengthened them.

AVOIDED DELAY. The rail journey from Rimouski to Montreal takes from 12 to 18 hours depending upon the choice of trains, but the mail from the Empress of Augtralia arrived at Father Point too late to catch the mérning train which arrjvés here at 9 p.m. daylight saving time. It would have had to wait the departure of the evening train which arrives here at 10.10 'a.m, daylight saving time.
