"Mr.

Lord

he
had
not

over

He
looked
at
Tredwell
more
in
sorrow
than
in
anger.
"I
told
you
at

Tredwell,
that
I
should

"Yes,

"Mr.

when

up

Lord
Caterham
sighed
deeply.
"H

Very
well,
Tredwell,
I
am
coming."
In
a
manner
highly
characteristic,
Lord
Caterham
was
always
most
genial
when
his
feelings
were
in
reality
the
reverse.
He
greeted

now
with
a
heartiness
quite'
unparalleled.

And

Into

large
arm-chair,
he
sat
down
opposite
him
and
blinked
nervously.
"I
wanted
to
see
you
very
particularly,"
said
George.
"Oh!"
said
Lord
Caterham
faintly,
and
his
heart
sank,
while
his
mind
rafted
actively
over
all
the
dread
possibilities
that
might
lie
behind
that
simple
phase.
"Very
particularly,"
sad
George
with
heavy
emphasis.
Lord
Caterham's
heart
sank
lower
than
ever.
He
felt
that
something
was
coming
worse
than
anything
he
had
yet
thought
of.
"Yes?"
he
said,
with
a
courageous
attempt
at
nonchalance.
"Is
Eileen
at
home?"
Lord
Caterham
felt
reprieved

slightly
surprised.
"Yes,

"Oh,

Lord
Caterham
stared
at
him.
It
occurred
to
him
that
what
was
so
often
referred
to
as
"the
strain
of
modern
life,"
had
begun
to
tell
upon
George,
Certainly
his
description
of
Bundle
seemed
to
Lord
Catcrhanj
ludicrously
unlike.
"Are
you
sure
you
arc
feeling
quite
well?"
he
asked
anxiously.
George
waved
the
inquiry
aside
impatiently.
"Perhaps,
Caterham,

Comparative
Figures
A
perfunctory
glance
at
the
export
figures
of
Canada
during
the
past
year
gives
the
impression
of
a
general
downward
trend.
Analysis
shows,
however,
that
the
reverse
is
true.
Due
to
conditions
which
no
one
can
control,
the
export
of
raw
material,
mainly
grain
and
grairf
products,
shows
a
decrease
of
$70,700,000.
But,
on
the
other
hand,
exports
of
goods,
manufactured
or
partly
manufactured,
show
an
increase
of
$46,500,000,
which
is
at
the
rate
of
9.4.
The
trend
of
the
year's
activity
In

trade
is
clearly
in
the
direction
of
increased
exports
of

business
now
provides
more
than
two
million
Canadians
with
their
livelihood.
So
vast
has
Canada's
foreign
trade
become,
that
nearly
a
quarter
of
our
population
depend
upon
it
for
what
they
eat
and
what
they
wear;
for
their
homes,
their
savings,
their
comforts
and
their
luxuries.
Export
trade
exerts
its
beneficence
in
every
Canadian
community
and
on
every
Canadian
farm.
Roughly,
a
third
of
our
total
annual
productionto
a
value
of
$1,363,700,000
is
shipped
to
other
lands.
Per
capita,
Canadians
are
the
second
largest
exporters
in
the
world.

HOW
CANADIANS
CAN

It
remains,
however,
for
Canadians
to
grasp
the
larger
opportunities
offering.
Producers

can

our

in
several
ways:
1.
Producing

2.
Maintaining

3.
Keeping
all

4.
