The reaction in common stock prices commenced in the second quarâ€" ter and marked deflation ozccurred afâ€" ter the middle of August. The standâ€" ing at the end of 1937 was about 20 per cenrt. below that of one year ago. In industries othsr than agriculture, during the last quarter of 1937, there were more people at work in Canada than at any other time during the period of observation from 1921 to the present except for two or thrce months in 1929. Despite the bright picture presented by the records of production, external trade and employment, the reaction in speculative factors during 1937 should not be overlooked when appraising business prospects for the new year. Highâ€"grade bond prices declined steadâ€" ily during the first quarter of the year from the high level reached at the end of 1936, A part of the decline was erased in later months. 1937.

The use of Hydroâ€"Electric power has grown rapidly in Canada playing a prominent part in the industrial deâ€" velopment. The year 193% recorded a maximum of production, tne output showing a gain of neariy nine per cent. over the preceding year. Substantial gain in external trade was one of the chicf construc:iive deâ€" 'velopments of the year.

Ostrich feathers have been prized from the days of Solomon and Cleopatra to the ‘ modern fan dancer. In attempting to protect its precious feathers from a hurter, the ostrich can run forty miles _an hour taking twentyâ€"five foot strides, but with its customary stupidity, it alâ€" ways runs in circles and can easily be headed off and lassoed by its pursuers! (Man is not the only enemy of the ostrich.

This interested her because a volume had recently been stolen from the branch in which she had been working. She called up another branch. Yes, they had had a volume stolen.
