NEW DISCUVERIES CONFIRM VIRTUES 0F BRAN IN DIET Supplies “Bulk” and Vitamin B for Constipation; Also Iron for Blood Recent laboratory tests show that ALL-BRAN supplies “bulk” to ex- ercise the intestines, and Vitamin B to help tone the intestinal tract. In addition, ALL-BRAN contains twice as much blood-building iron, by weight, as beef liver. This “bulk” in ALL-BRAN is much like the “bulk” in lettuce. Inside the body, it absorbs moisture and forms a soft mass, which gently clears the intestines of wastes. ' MY always was up to the last minute!

Jamieson, Manager “is good tea” Effort Madef or the Canadian Forests Summary of Educational Campaigns Carried Out by the Canadian For- estry Association in the Pal Twelve Months. One of the active agencies for the advantage of Canada and its people is the Canadian Forestry Association, a voluntary organization whose whole aim and purpose is to conserve the for- est wealth of Canada and to arouse popular attention to this end. The an- nual reports and statistics of the work of the association are now being made available to the public and should prove of special interest and value. Particu- larly should this be true in regard to the work of the educational campaigns carried out by the association during the past year. Despite the heavy financial handicaps on a purely voluntary society during such a period as the past twelve months. the Canadian Forestry Association managed to perform a far-reaching educational service in the safeguarding of woods, waters and wild life. One of the best proofs that Canadians have a deep-rooted interest in the condition of the natural resources is found in the advancement of the association's in- dividually-paid membership by over' 2 000, making this Canadian society the largest of its kind in the world. As a means of heading off forest fire trouble by public coâ€"operation, the association obtained the voluntary help of twelve radio stations which gave re- peated weekly broadcasts during the fire season. More than 2500 Junior Forest Wardens, senior lads selected for leadership, were set to work in as many forested districts. Association lectur- ers, travelling the frontier country in motor trucks and ra:lway lecture cars, held 869 public mass meetings. utiliz- ing motion pictures made by the asso- ciation to enforce lessons in fire pre- vention and the guarding of fish and game. Constant instruction was kept up in 8,000 rural schools from coast to coast. On the prairies. to meet the unusual situation caused by the blowing out of cmps and other consequences of wind damage, 39,000 farmers were instructed in the planting of shelter belts of trees, the one known antidote for the destruc- tive conditions of 1931 causing the total loss of crops to thousands of settlers. The whole purpose cf‘t‘lfe Canadian Forestry Association‘s work is to safe- guard the nation‘s vast wealth of for- ests, which not only give life to the forest industries, but are the main macrhpf. m the growing tourist traffic ests, which not only give life to forest industries, but are the t magnet to the growing tourist tr and the supply house of all fishing hunting. EARLTON VILLAGE ELECTS TRUSTEES BY ACCLAMATION The sequel to recent court preceedâ€" ings with regard to the validity of the first election for trustees of the new police village of Earlton, and in which Judge Hartman ordered a new election held, has been the elevation into office of three citizens by acclamation. The hour for qualifying in the fresh contest expired at nine o’clock Wednesâ€" day night of last week. and the mem- bers of the new board of trustees will be Wilfred Lacroix, Charles Fortler and Edmond Lapierre. Three other names were priced in nomination, but George Sassville, A1- fred Gauthier and Henri Robert all signed resignations. Neither J. 0. M35â€" sier nor Ed. Lc-(anger, who were the subjects of the protest which led to the new elect-ion. was nominated this time. ESTABLISHED 1832 Pekoe Hon. W. A.

Some days ago there was a radio tall: 0! more than usual interest. touch- | mg on some of the ideas of Hon. W. A. Gordon for helping stabilize Canada and am the country's prosperity. The talk was by Grattan O.Leary. one of the editorial writers on The Otta- wa Journal.

The development I have in mind is a Beck-to-th-e-Land movement. the most successful and significant that has taken place within at least two genera- tlons. Orators and publicists never tire of telling us that ours is an agricultural country. that agriculture is our basic industry, that the strength of this na- tion must be in its soil. But while they have been telling us these things we, have seen an increasingly heavy pro-l portion of our population drift to the‘ cities. Forty years ago, 32 per cent.‘ of our people were in the towns and. cities, and 68 per cent. on the land} With the turn of the century there be- ' gan an exodus to the cities, and no: withstandingithe vast immigration of the early 1900,s and the opening up of the West, the year 1911 saw the pro- portion of those on the land reduced to 54 per cent. while the census of 1921 ' showed a practically even distrib tion; as between urban and rural dwe ers. No figures are yet available from the census taken last year, but they are; almost certain to show that our fax-mi and country population is now exceed- 5 ed by the population of our cities.

This dif- ference, briefly, is that this scheme is not paternalistic, and it involves no outlay and expenditure of any kind on the part of the State; that those being sent to the land are simply given a. fair chance, then left. to their own re- sources for success and self-help. To get a clear picture of the genesis and workings of the plan, it is neces- sary to go back to 1930. Toward the end of that year, when the depression became acute, and the total of our unemployed had reached 200,000,- im- migrants were still coming to Canada at the rate’of 150,000 per year. It then occurred to the Dominion Minister of Immigration, Mr. Wesley Gordon, that unless this immigration flow was cheâ€" cked our army of unemployed would grow, and that instead of encouraging and permitting immigration, the ener- gies of his department would be better “My baby’s cheeks and hands were so hot,” writes Mrs. Bernard Breen, En- terprise, Ont., “I was frightened.

Such a movement, it was clear. pm- ented dimmilties. There was the fact. to begin with. that previous land set- tlement schema had almost invariably failed. This was true of the State- aided Soldier Land Settlement Scheme. true also of the 3.000 Family Scheme; and with the national exchequer run- ning low. it was absolutely vital to avoid the adversities and lossm incurred by both of these ventures. Mr. Gordon therefore decided that the cardinal principal of his plan would be that it must embrace opportunity for self-help without financial aid from the treasury. In other words, while the State would provide openings and opportunities. and would endeavor to help those willing to help themselves, there would be nothing of coddling about the scheme, nothing of paternalism nor of state socialism. With this principle to guide him, and having satisfied himself that there were thousands of Jobless urbanites with small savings who would be willing to g: on the land, Mr. Gordon’snext task was to find land; to find large land- owners, and to galvanize them into one organization which would seek out prospective purchasers, finding suitable properties for them, and providing set- tlers with certain services, such as ins- pection and after care. All settlement, he got the sort of land he could han- dle, or that he was not being burdened with too great a weight of debt. In proceeding with the present move- ment. it was regarded as vital that there be an avoidance of this mistake. Mr. Gordon, as a beginning, found in his own Department of Immigration a large land-owning organizationâ€"the Dominion Land Settlement Board. This Board, as a result of previous Govern- ment land settlement schemes, pos- sessed a number of vacant farms. In addition, there were the land organiz- ations in the colonization department of the Canadian Pacific and Canadian National railwavs; land in the posses- sion of the various provinces; and land owned by mortgage cpmpanies and pri- vate colonization companies, all avail- able if required. The next step-Qâ€"settlers and land both being availableâ€"was to secure the co- operation of the railways with the Land Settlement Board. 'I‘h‘s, for- tunately, presented little difficulty, and within a. short time a large and exper- ienced land-marketing machine was put into motion, and the unemployed in the cities given the opportunity to secure land on just and easy terms. Appflication for farms were received 'by either the railway companies or the Land Settlement Board. If the or- ganization receiving the applications had suitable property for sale. and the applicants could show that they would make suitable settlers. the deals were put through at once and full details sent to the central ofiice. If it hap- pened that the organization lacked suitable land. then the cases were re- ferred to the central amce at Ottawa. and thence forwarded to the other two organizations. In the event cf these failing, and with suitable property still lacking, there was a canvass of the field staff of the Land Settlement Board, or consultation with private owners. From the very beginning the plan functioned successfully. It was arran- ged that settlers should be located within their own province, and as near as possible to the town or city in which they had been living. Little difficulty was had in discovering suitable farms the colonization branch of the Immi- gration Department became a connect- ing or co-ordinating link between the various organizations; and machinery was devised to inform the unemplyed of the opportunities, short of cash assis- tance, which awaited them.

If the Can- adian National lacked a suitable pro- perty for a particular applicant. no at- tempt was made to load him with an unsuitable property. He was simply turned over to the central office. which took him to the Canadian Pacific. or to the Land Settlement Board. and if and when it happened that none of the threee organizations could help him. then all three bodies went scouring the country for private owners who could. One of the splendid and strong points about the plan was that its organiza- tion could be enlarged without friction or loss of efficiency. Early in the movement the provincial government~= asked to be included in the work; and this was done. Later on it became ne- cessary to set up provincial committees representing the local government, the district superintendents of the Land Settlement Board, and the railway col- onization departments; and this also was done. All these committees. whe- ther central or provincial, were purely voluntary and no attempt was made to interfere with provincial land set- tlement schemes. No obstacles of any sort were placed in their way, and they were extended the fullest co-operation. Once well underway. the Back-to-the -Land movement grew with an aston- ishing rapidity. People began to troop to the railway offices, to the local bran- ches of the Land Settlement Board; began sending telegrams and letters to Ottawa. Within a few months the cen- tral organization was deluged with reâ€" cords that had to be examined, with work of ascertaining cash assets. with the task of making sure that prospec- tive settlers were not condemned to an impossible adventure. One of the things that had to be fought against was a constant pressure to have the Government widen the scheme. to have the treasury put up money to finance settlement of those the most that has been done in the way of direct assistance is that the Government has agreed to allow mun- icipalities to place unemployed on farms. expenditures thus incurred being regarded as a part .of unemployment relief policy. This, however, is some- thing entirely separate from the Back- to -the-Land movement. who tare lacking in resources. Thus f ar, this pressure has been resisted, and Coming to the plan’s practical ach- ievements, to its results, they can be demonstrated by a few simple figures. All told, more than 43 000 persons have been taken from the cities and placed on the land; 6,040 married men with families, and 12,632 single men; and land has been sold to the value of $11,- 000.000, all of this in sixteen months. This land has been sold under terms and conditions which give to every set- tler a reasonable chance for success. There has been no attempt at exploi- tation; no question of high-pressure salesmanship; no desire to make money or to merely spend money; no effort to build up a bureaucratic machine. Finallyâ€"and this I should like to make clearâ€" this movement is not political, it is not a part of the pro- gram of any single party or group. It is non~political, non-cammercial, non- sectarian and non-racial; con- cerned only with the single problem of putting peeple on the land. Such a movement, obviously must enccunter difficulties, and has its limitations; but its record thus far is that it has eased unemployment, reduced bread lines, provided fresh hope for thousands. Furthermore, the example it has given has inspired similar efforts by a num- a person is a business leader is not a question of how big he is but of what- he does. A man may be a millionaire with a voice in a dozen companies but if he hoards his money in a safe de- posit box and counsels laying of! men rather than digging for orders to keep them busy, he is not a business leader. A man may be a. s4-aâ€"day workman with six hungry mouths at home to feed, but if he turns his hand to what- ever he can find to do, and if he dis- suades a couple of friends from joining a run on their savings bank. he is a business leader. Not the size of a per- son's finanéial affairs but how he handles them makes him a. leader.. A small merchant who is quick to learn his customers wants is leading the way to new business. So is the salaried man or his wife who keeps the family budget on a basis of buying as usual'." ber of the provinces, and thousands are now being placed on the land by Ontario, Quebec and Saskatchewan, and under equally promising conditions. There is one thing more. It is that the true value of a movement of this character cannot be measured by a standard of dollars and cents. Behind that standard, and far more vital, is a spiritual significance, the lesan that is being taught in those virtues which pioneered and builded Canada; the les- son o-f independence, of self-reliance and self-respect; virtues which are more than ever necessary in our time, and which are of the genius and instincts of our race.

Newspaper advertising efficiently handled along modern lines was no less news than other material in the press. H. E. Stephenson, of the McKixn Agen- cy. Toronto, told a gathering of busi- ness men at Kingston last week at the dinner held under the auspices of the Whig-Standard. “Good advertising." he declared “is good business news." Advertising is News Expert Tells Club The old days when the buyer was of necessity cautious in his acceptance of .he seller's statements had passed, Mr. Stephenson declared. To-day the best way to sell a product isto tell the truth about it. and hence the public read newspaper advertising as a. guide to their daily purchasing. “If you have a local newspaper use it,” he advised, “even if you are located in one corner of the county and can only get value from a part of the cir- culation. Tell your story from time to time and you will profit by it. “The newspaper is an important factor in knitting together a commun- ity, and to the extent that you can strengthen it you will be making his paper a stronger medium for your own, and the manufacturers' advertising.” Mr. Stephenson urged his listeners not to belittle possible competitiom. The extra eflorts made by extra ad- vertising and extra. sales activity, no matter what the business situation at the moment. protected the merchant- against future eventualities. and kept his markets safe. Too many merchants he said. attempted to sidestep news- paper advertising salesmen for fear they might be expected to "cough up." Such an attitude was absolutely wrong, he declared. The merchant and the newspaper were bound up with the growth and the prosperity of the dis- trict and must work together. Mr. Stephenson outlined roughly the means by which newspapers in their columns were an indirect ,aid to the merchant advertiser. One newspaper might run a cooking school, drawing the readers’ attention daily to food- stuffs. Such a page was of inestimable benefit to the advertiser who was sell- ing food products. In the same way other services to the reader were bound up closely with the businesses which went to make up the commerce and trade of a district and country. “To-day." he pointed out, “at the ser- vice of the manufacturer are the best artists, the best writers and the best newspapers, and there is not a nook or cranny of the Dominion of Canada that is not reached regularly by some publication which is read first for its local and general news and for its business news. Renfrew Mercuryzâ€"Nearly every town has a small-minded thief, but in Bownmanville, it is reported, the one who was in the limelight there has had a change of heart. It is reported that a merchant in that town placed a jar of tobacco in front of his tobacco store and invited the unemployed to help themselves. All went well until one day the jar. tobacco and all myster- iously disappeared. Undaunted by this affront, the storekeeper put out another jar of tobacco. A little later the first jar was restored to its place with some of the tobacco missing from it, but as the unemployed passer-by was invited to help himself, that was regarded only as a natural consequence. The merchant’s kindness is appreciated by many. For Sure Results Try a Classified Ad. AVE a trip to town.
