Mr. Gordon‘s departâ€" ment have'mmy interesting features. Out of the total of 19,782 entering Canada from other lands, there were no less than 13,196 from the United States. The immigrants from the United States came from every state of the Union, the largest number, 3.384, being from Michigan, with New York, 1,879, following. Of the 6.586 emigrants from other counâ€" tries than the United States, there were 3.097 from the Britâ€" ish Isles, This included 1,940 English, 764 Scottish, 333 Trish and 70 Welish. From Northern Europe there were 840 emiâ€" grants to Canada last year. There were 2,6490 members of other races coming here. The preponderance of‘ United Btates immigration over that of other nations coming here in 1932, and the large proportion of British immigration, show that the Department cof Immigration is following along the right lines in guarding the gates of Canada from the evils formerly allowed to attack this country. Only the better class of British and United States immigration is allowed and this means that Canada toâ€"day is securing a select, though small, addition to its enough to be These supposedly modern fellows, with their ancient docâ€" trine of substitution would have the world change nero worâ€" ship from the giants of old â€"to the pigmies of the present day. The world, after all, however, is old and wise. The world has seen group after group of these false philosophers and shoddy thinkers rise and vapour and pass away. Even their names are forgotten. But the heroes remain in history and in the heartsâ€"of the people. ' : Again!" John the Baptist is ancient and outâ€"ofâ€"date they say. Beâ€" hold Dr. Salem Bland. is reviving;:that the big steel works in that city is taking on employses and ‘ bréparlfig to expand ‘the business that has been so reduced in the past couple of years. From Kitchener there 4s the story that over two hundred ‘ havg gone ‘off relief because conditions have so patly improved. «. * Montreal there is the news that makes good times. The Robim:Hgod Mills, Limited, announces a wage increase of ten per cent. to go in force in all its plants on July 1st From St John, New Brunswicgt comes the joyful tidings that a pt6 cial bond issue of $2,47400000 was fully subâ€" scribed in a hours. Pembrokd Lumber Company will reâ€"open their mills the last week in June. From Port Arthur comes a oall for men for pulpâ€"cutting, the supply of local labour there being unequal to the demand. From Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, and other cities, east and west, there are records of increased business in many lines, with consequent renewal of employment and improved hope for the future, From Sudbury there is a despatch saying that 80 men have been taken on at the Frood Mines and that many partâ€" time employees have been added to the payroll of the Interâ€" national Nickel Company. The stock market indicates a renewal of confidence and adventure It also suggests a strengthening of price levels and a renewal of the spirit of venture. Perhaps, the best news of all comes from the province of Quebec where the government has decided upon an extended programinie of public works. The Quebec Government not only the costly folly and evil of direct relief but has made definite plans to substitute work for direct relief. Emâ€" ployment is the one cure for unemployment. Unemployâ€" ment is the one great curse of the day. Quebec province is showing g lead in striking at the very root of the trouble. Other praovinces will no doubt follow the clever lead of Queâ€" bec in the matter of work rather than direct relief. It will be remembered that employment was the remedy originally planned by the Dominion Government for the cure of the depression. The provinces falled to support this cure Mirect relef seemed the easiest and cheapest way. Direct relief, however, has proven no cure at all, but only an added With gll sorts of industries reâ€"opening, with curtalled. staffs being increased to former levels, with the revival of trade an{ industry, it only needs Government programmes of needed public works to cure unemployment.: With the return of employment for those willing and ready to work, the song,‘"Happy Days are Here Again," will be sung, first softly an difidently, and then with rising ardour and meanâ€" ing. ‘The times are on the mend!

Word: comes from Hamilton, Ontario, that business there thaet the Per Year assimilated, and with the quality to be desired. in some past years there has been too great a desire to secure numâ€" bers, even at the expense of quality. iCarelessness or an overâ€"developed spirit of unwarranted hopefulness has in past years loaded Canada with a class of immigration that has been hurtful to the country, â€"the Doulhobors, for example. There must be continued guard against the foisting upon Canada of probolems and evils foreign to her soil. There is no occasion for any hurry. Canada will remain here and be ready for development by the right sort of people at the right time. It is encouraging to see that toâ€"day under the able and patriotic direction of Hon. W. A. Gordon, the Department of Immigration is picking and choosing its new citizens. It is to be hoped, for Canada‘s sake, that this gocd policy is continued and extended, in the better days to come. The Advance has noted on several occasions the pitiful fact that there are Canadians with such a shameful deâ€" velopment of the inferiority complex that they believe that nothing that is Canadian can ‘be any good and that anyâ€" thing foreign must be supcerior beyond words in English. One of the most distressing exhibitions of this silly spirit was given last week by The Cochrane Northland Post which made a vicious attack upon The Advance for no other reaâ€" son than that this paper recently referred to the unquesâ€" tionable fact that Canada has weathered the depression better than most cther countries, and certainly with less difficulty and hardship than the great country to the South, Citizens of the United States, who are proverblally free from the feeling of ingrained inferiority, agmit quite. frankâ€" ly that Canada has escaped much of the more serious trqubles that have been noted in the United States during this depresslon Visitors from Canada to the United States Hiave seen for themselves how true it is that Canada has been in ‘better ‘position than its bigger nelghbmxr Tb deny a fact like this is to carry the inferlority complex to disâ€" graceful and disgusting absurdity. The Advance has reâ€" cognized that Canada has had some share of the evils of the worldâ€"wide depression. â€" Yet to pretend that this country has suffered as severely as, some other lands is to reach a point of absolute ‘refusal to consider facts and state of selfâ€"abasement that will be flagrantly at variance with the spirit of Canadian manhood and womanhood. It may be that poutiqal frenzy has had this effect upon The Northland Fost. It may be that some cther ulterior reason sways The Post. But whatever the explanation, the fact that The Post takes such a meanâ€"spirited and unpatriotic attitude will be painful indeed to those who have hitherto accused it only of shortâ€"sighted overâ€"enthusiasm for somethlng it is told ls new or foreign. There is a resolution on the books of the Timmins high school board forbiddaing the use of the schcol or school hours for commercial purposes. Yet during the past few days the time of the pupils, the teachers and the school has been used for commercial purpOoses in most Objectionable way. The high school is maintained at some sacrifice by the ratephyers of the town, including the photographers. Despite this fact a photographer from a distant city was permitted recently to have the use of the school and waste the time of teachers and pupils alike for his own profit. Will each of the local photographers be awarded a similar privilege in fairness? Will the privilegee be extended to other local concerns equally worthy? â€" Surely the impossibility of any such comâ€" mercialization of the high school is selfâ€"evident. The reâ€" sClution passed by the board some years ago is very evidentâ€" ly the only way to handle the situation. There should be no commercialization of the high school for the profit of one. Such a privilege is particularly objectionable when given to visitor from a distant city The â€" photographers ‘of Timmins get no protection from travelli.ng artists in their line, despite the taxes they pay. They should at least be protected in a case like this. ‘It is regrettable that thoughtâ€" lessly a member ‘of the board should have accorded an unfair privilege of this type to an outsider. The matter is menâ€" tioned here andnowinmehopesthatitmaynotbeper- mitted at any future occasion, but that in taimess to the ratepayem the resolution on the books of the board sl‘ould be observed. y The Northern Tribune, of Kapuskasing, accuses The Cochâ€" rane Northland Post of. publishing as its own editorial an article writien by an outsider in regard to the 'back-toâ€"the- land" question. The Tribune is rather severe on The Post in the matter. It may be that The Post is so imbued with the inferlority complex that it is having all its editorials written by outsiders. This would be a great pity, for The Post itself can really write better than the most of United States people or those who were born in Russia.

The blas of the communiâ€" cations by the Ratepayers‘ Association is so apparent that opinions. by "this bedy must be discounted. . In stressing the fact that the reeve of Tisdale, was elected by a "large majority," it should not be forgotten that the counciligrs were also elected by a "large majority." The councilliors are all men whose character and records will stand comâ€" parison even with the opinin of "Anâ€" cther Tisdale Ratepayer" in regard to the reeve. It is stretching chivalry to undue lengths to presume that the four good men are completely and necasâ€" sarily wrong all the time, while the one woman is absolutely rightall the time as a matter of course. There is no doubt that the ratepayers of the township of Tisdale will settle the whole maitter at the proper time. ° In the meantime the supporters of Mrs. Mrs. Thomas would assist her greatly in securing coâ€"cperation if they were less vociferous in stressing the idea that the township.electors made four misâ€" takes last election, rather than just snpport.

V. Gallagher, who was in office for over seven years and even had parliamenâ€" tary aspirations. Mrs. Thomas was not only elected but the number of her followers has been doubled since. The Ratepayers‘ Association proved it by backing her with over 1200 voices, and if this "Tisdale Ratepayer" will only see, â€".he will admit where lies the sentiâ€" ment of most Tisdale people, and that is with the woman who has been in the Porcupine Camp for over twenty years, and has never done dishonest thing, and is known as one of, the smartest business women in Canada. .
