When the Cunard flag-ship “Aqui- tania” sailed into Halifax on a short cruise from New York, her arrival marked the ninety-third anniversary of the maiden voyage of the pion- eer Cunarder “Britannia,” from Liv- | of Finance, from London. Present indications here are that the loan will be for at least 400 million dollars. Such a sum would take care of the 170 millions of obli- ployment relief and the C.N.R. deficit with something left over for what may be needed for the present year’s governmental operations.

It is understood here that Mr. Rhodes has taken advantage of. his stay in England to consult British financial interests, possibly with a view to offering part of the loan in the. London market. Life In South Africa: Refreshments Seem Te Take Up Large Part Of Day G. H. Christian, from Pretoria, South Africa, a recent arrival who will make his home in Ontario, tells of the differences in Canadian and South African life.

They are sanctuaries for wild life, refuges from the hustle and bustle of affairs, and as the popu- lation grows they will be appreciated more and more by those periodically overwhelmed by a desire to “get away from it all.” Riding Mountain Park is 178 miles from Winnipeg and may be reached by good roads from the international boundary. It is a natural home for elk, moose, deer, black bear and bea- ver. It has a herd of 2,000 to 3,000 wild elk, probably the largest in Can- ada. There are golf, tennis, swimming and boating, and for those who want the forest primeval trails likely to bring one into an encounter with the roaming elk. These ought to be enough qualifications for any one park. Eighteen national parks offer eigh- teen magnificent vacations in infinite variety for the tired worker who craves the open spaces. In a few of them, such as Banff and Jasper, he may dress for dinner if his inclina- tions move him that way, but for the most part they are handed over to the people pretty much as Nature left them.—Ottawa Journal. Whaling Industry In Canada Is Reviving |Stocks Of Oil Depleted and Season Likely To Be Prosperous Canada has come back into the). whaling industry this year with the resumption of operations on the Paci- fic coast after two years when the whalers stayed in port because world market conditions made satisfactory returns unlikely. In other countries, too, there was curtailment of opera-) tions in 1931 and 1932, but with the stocks of oil now reduced, the out- | look for the industry is believed to be more. favorable. Some half dozen different kinds of whales are taken in British Columbia whaling, which is centred off the jcee Oils Limited, of Calgary, has ,all the people. There are now eigh- | pushed forward immediate plans for | drilling for natural gas in the Dirt Hills. The company has secured con- trolling interest in 14,000 acres ap- proximately 30 miles south of Moose Jaw and 50 miles southwest of Re- gina. A contract for drilling the first well has been given to the Sheldon Burden of Canada Limited, work has already commenced and actual dril- ling operations started. The company is equipped and pre- pared to go to 4,000 feet if necessary ‘but it is anticipated gas bearing strata will be reached long before that depth. The area has been tested geo- logically and geophysically and last year a thorough survey by the latest seismographic method was under+ taken. The results confirmed previous in- vestigation and if expectations are fulfilled :a supply. of natural gas eas- ily available for both Regina and Moose Jaw should be developed by the fall months, the company says, in its official statement. A great deal of geological work has been done in this area, which has been favorably reported on by leading geologists, and the present | development work is being. undertak- ‘en as a result of a favorable report lon the seismograph survey made last fall by Geophysical Service Corpora- tion of Dallas, Texas, which is the same company that did the work for \the Nordon Company on the. Twin |River structure, which has just re- \cently completed its well. President of the Highwood Sarcee Oils is A. W. Dingman, the father of gas and oil development in the dis- trict of Calgary and a pioneer in Turner Valley, to whom much of the subsequent development is due.

For not only does pain educate our facul- ties and stimulate our energies; it is ! g0 necessary to our very joy that we seek it for ourselves. Half the inter- | est of our sports lies in the call which they make upon our endurance. Nay, a painless world would lack some of the finest elements which dignify human nature; for it would offer no sphere for patience or cour- age, for sympathy or charity, for tempeance or generosity or self-sacri- | fice. Pain is so closely woven into the whole texture of our active lives that we should feel lost without its bitter- sweet companionship. To be free from suffering, especially from mental suf- fering is to be less, not more, than human.—Canon Glazebrook.
