A few months ago the man who sug- gested that It mlj?ht be posible to mea- sure the heat received from a glrl'a cheek three-quarters of a mile away, or from a candle 4 miles away, would probably hare been looked on with aomo suspicion. But this senilngly In- credible thing has now been done by means of an Instrument Invented by Professor (1. V. Hoy«-, of England. This iDstrument was constnicted to measure the heat received from the brighter stars. It is made of a "sus- pension fibre" some thousands of times liner than any made before, and to obtain this fibre certain precious stones were molted down and drawn out into fllanients at a high speed and under u high temperature. The metal substance was stretched by being fixed to an arrow, which Pro- fessor Boys shot from a bow through a hot flsmo down a room about ninety feet long. Most of the melteil sul)- stanre remained bflilnd. but between It and the arrow floated a fibre n.i deli- cate as il Rpiiler's W)ib. And loss than ono ton-thousandth part of an inch In diameter. But the invention, though wonderful, has failed In its chlof purpose, for the heat from the stars Is too slight for even this delicate instrument to re- gister. 1 1 I ^ 5 & â-  7 8 1 9 10 It IZ, 13 14- 1? lb 17 18 19 20 11 â-  ZJ.

"Tourist traffic is one Industry ripe for development In Western Canada at the present time," is the statement of one of the engineers of the Natural Resources Intelligence Service of the Department of the Interior, on return- ing from an investigation of the na- tural resources of southern Alberta and British Columbia. This engineer states that our attractions to tourists In this area constitute one natural re- source ready to "cash In" on immedi- ately with little expenditure, and no diminution of the original assets on which it Is founded. Canada has the natural attractions to meet any competition for the Ameri- can automobile and other tourist traf- fic. She has the big game and other sporting attractions, the wuterways, scenery, summer climate, and so on. Tho service provided by our railways is the best and our highways are now comparable with many of the main highways in tho United States, and they are being rapidly extended and Improved. Wo have the material to sell and wo have a ready market, creating a situa- tion of remarkable possibilities. It Is a situation which has developed very abruptlyâ€" mainly within the last few years. Next door we have a nation, with nearly 110,000,000 people and over 15,000,000 automobiles, bordering U6 clear across the continent. Most of tho motor cars are owned by people with the means and inclination to tra- vel. It Is doubtful whether any coun- try ever faced such favorable condi- tions as Canada enjoys to-day with regard to the tourist traffic â€" a class of business which has long been nurs- ed as a large source of income in such countries as Prance, Itnly and Switz- erland. In the report of the United States foreign trade for 1923 the expenditure of tourists abroad is estimated at $500,000,000. The Increasing tourist travel In Canada bids fair to absorb a considerable portion of this annual ex- penditure. What Is required more than any- thing else to take full advantage of this situation and to create a still more thriving and remunerative indus- try Is a spirit of co-operation among the various organizations dealing with this traiflc. The efforts of the Natural Resources Intelligence Service are be- ing directed toward this end.
