Resolution
Regarding Training.
The Ottawa despatch Thursday telling of the resolution in

regard to the establishment of physical training for all young |

men between the ages of 18 and 25, is a very interesting one.
The real idea behind the resolution is the introduction of com-
pulsory military training.

The country is very much divided on the question of military
training. No one really likes militarism in any form, ‘but un-
fortunately we have not yet arrived at such a state of perfection
that we can expect any war to be the last war. If we are io
be a democracy we must be prepared to defend that democracy.

A standing army is usually a menace. In place of it a
trained militia is necessary. This may be done through volunteer
militia, but the opinion is growing that every man who is a
citizen should be prepared to defend his citizenship. If democracy |
is worth anything, it is worth fighting for in time of need.

There is a possibility that the physical training suggested |
has little to do with military training. In that case it might be
better to encourage the boys to train voluntarily as anything com-
pulsory is usually distasteful.

Iron Smeiting in
This District.
A. C. Garde in an interview recently in a Vancouver paper
in regard to the establishment of a smelter:—
“The establishment of iron smelting works in British Co-
lumbia has long been talked about and the claims of various
places taken into consideration. In view of the importance of |
establishing a smelter or iron works, the location where ore, coal, |
water and transportation facilities are to be found is a very im- |
portant factor. 1 have spent ten years in the north and the new |
field along the Grand Trunk Pacific railway which is popularly
known as the Copper River district is very rich in all the neces-
sary ores for the establishment of a smelter or iron works.
“Limonite is found there in very large quantities and this
ore, which is a redeposited one, is better than magnetite for the |
purpose of smelting. There are’several million tons available—
not in the way a layman would say, but by actual measurement
of reliable engineers, including officials of the government.
Coking coal is also to be found in immense quantity, and as this
is far superior to ‘ordinary coal the presence of this coal is of
immense importance. Fluxes, chiefly lime, which are used in

says

smelting abound in the district, whilst the transportation facilities | ,

are of the best.

“There is very little doubt that in a few years iron smelting
will be carried on by means of electricity, and in view of this
the selection of a suitable location becomes more important than
ever, although I think that for a time at least the works which
are erected should be run on the present system until the electric
process is perfected. In the Copper River district the water
power is eminently suitable for the creation of electric power
One hundred miles of railway have already been built and,
the ground covers all of 150 miles it can readily be seen that the

cost-of an additional 50 miles of steel would very soon more than
pay for itself and open to the world a field of surpassing wealth.’

“FRUIT-A-TIVES” Brings Vigor and
Vitality and Thus Protects
Against Disease

There ean be no doubt that the
situation regarding the spread of
Influenza throughout Canada is one
of grave concern. It is quite true
that the number of cases does not
constitute an epidemic such as caused
the suffering and sorrow during the
terrible days of 1918. Yet there is
no disguising the fact that everyone
should be on their guard against the
disease.

In Montreal alone, from January
20th to l’ebruary 2ist, three thousand,
one hundred and twenty-two cases of
Influenza and 189 deaths from the
disease were reported to the Health
Department,

If the outbreak had come at the
beginning of the winter instead of
the end, we might reasonably feel
that the very cold weather would
check the spread of the disease. But
coming as Ht has, at the end of the
winter, there is grave fear that an
epidemic may occur. For sp
with its slush and/rain cadiar' foot,
its dampness and chill, its constant
changing from cold to farm and
back again, is a prolific source of
coughs and colds, pleurisy and
pneumonia,

The best protection, in fact, the
only ety against the Flu, is,
GOOD HEALTH.

Those who are not as well and
strong as they should be; those who
are underweight ; those who are
“Tun-down” through overwork or
sickness; should build up at once,
What they ne ved is a Blood-purifier,

a body-builder, a strength-giver, like
