IRELAND FROM BRITAIN IS UNLIKELY TALKS OF SUNSHINE Dr. Kobert lied ford Interesting Speaker at Trinre Kupert Gyro Club Luncheon "Spark of Life" Ileal Basis of Economic Sun-Worship Supported by Scientific Inveslgatlon "Many of u may not associate sunshine with economics but the fact of the matter Is that sunshine, 'the spark of life.' is the very basis of our economics," declared Dr. Robert H. Bedford of the scientific staff of the Prince Rupert Fisheries Experimental Station, In an Interesting talk before the Prince Rupert Oyro Club yesterday on the subject of "Sunshine." "The record of our historical pro-genotors tells us that at some per lod or other our progenitors worshipped the sun. They regarded the sun as the source from which a. 'Meaning flowed. The advance of scientific Investigation is showir? that the- Imfrfiets cfrour "sun-wor ahiptHitg ancestor may not dc m m? far from the facts. "For hundreds of centuries man in his struggle for existence relied upon his own physical strength: the physical unit of strength was man power. The knowledge of handling fire lightened his burdcn and gave him more control over hit environment. The burning of wood gave way to coal and. when thr potential energy Inherent In coal became realised, there followed In hurried succession changes in one iMusWy after another which brought about the greatest Indus trial progress In human .history port)Uon and natural gas, too. har contributed towards the comfort of j humanity.
