But it is certain that things will develop there. It has become a h bit of late not to let the members into the confidence of the government until the appointed time. Ilbwwer, it Js'not thought that there will be great happenings, thft yearitlter in the Dominion or Provincial Houses. ' A let-up in the amount of legislation passed might be a good thing for the country.

Here is the most interesting fact connected with the story-it ha been done without fuss or feathers without working our beads off without becoming hysterical to the point of sacrificing our last drop of blood in pursuit ot the almighty dollar. With the preceding facts and figures in hand, It does not require, much of an analyst to determine that the average Canadian in every walk of life has earned more and saved more, with less effort, than any other man on earth. Consequently, he must have enjoyed life better had more honest-to-goodness fun while he was doing it. . So let them continue to say: "You can't hurry a Canadian."
