Intergovernmental Conference SATISFACTION should prevail over GENERAL the calling by Prime Minister St. Laurent of the Dominion-provincial conference for January 10 to which British Columbia has been one of the provinces to promptly assent. All are agreed upon the necessity of the conference and, during the election campaign, pledges were made that there would be a minimum of delay in calling it. Called to consider "constitutional questions" as affecting the Dominion and the provincial jurisdiction, that objective may well contain all the outstanding matters which have been hanging fire for many years between Ottawa and the provinces and which have, from time to time, been settled with temporary expedients such as grants-in-aid and the like. It is to be hoped that the newest conference will be entered into with a cordial spirit of give and take between Ottawa and the provinces and among the provinces themselves. Much good may then accrue for the welfare and happiness of Canada as a whole. CANADA'S RIVERS IT MAY BE because we have so much country', but I we Canadians are inclined to be woefully ignorant of our own geography. Take our rivers, for instance. We think of the St. Lawrence as being one of the great waterways of the world which it is but how many Canadians know that we have a longer river? The St. Lawrence is nearly 2,000 miles long, from the Atlantic Ocean to the westerly end of the Great Lakes system, a waterway "which reaches almost half way across the continent. But longer than the St. Lawrence is the Mackenzie, which flows north from Great Slave Lake 'to the Arctic Ocean, a distance of 2,514 miles. iTbe Yukon is 1979 miles long. The Saskatchewan River, 1,205 miles, rises in the Rockies, flos.aross the plains, -and joins the Winnipeg system of lakes drained by he Nelson, a river system 1,600 miles in length. The Churchill River, with its tributaries, has a total length of 1,300 miles, draining into Hudson Bay. Our own Fraser is 695 miles in length. The Skeena River is 325 miles long. Canada's rivers have played a big part in the development of a great country. has not been sufficiently stressed V1C8(S lf-VS DRESS PVVI assortment, nrrfrit Now KNITTING WOOl in?
