PULLEN - - - Managing-Editor Ontario has no coal and in the past has secured most of her supply from United States sources. In view of the present condition under which Canadians are penalized when buying in the U S. markets it is natural that attention should be turned to Canadian sources of supply.

In the groundhog country there is said to be an unlimited supply of anthracite coal of the best quality which could be produced and delivered to Montreal by way of Prince Rupert or Stewart at a price that would command a market but a large amount of capital is necessary to open the mines and put in the necessary transpor-' tation facilities, i Madame Awellta Oalli-Curei wc-ld famous opeia star was given a rlcklshaw ride by u native K.Uu i hn f while in Soul..
