His company has never lost a single hour through a work stoppage. Yet the Lincoln workers in U.S.A. have received average wages far above those in comparable plants last year the take of the average Lincoln worker being $7701 compared with $3705 in General Electric, $4034 at General 'Motors and $4091 at U.S. Steel. LET ME warn readers that much of Mr. Lincoln's book expresses what somebody dubbed "the folklore of capitalism." Here is a free enterprise champion if there ever was one.

PRICKS EFFECTIVE TO APRIL 11 We reserve Ihe risht to limit quantity Things to Worry About as close to Russia as Britain is, AJTHOUGII Canadians have long been cheerful about the : weather along- the north boundary. This weather is . l)ad,"vhich is a good thing. But successive warnings from authorities on climate dull the prospect. The ; weather is getting better, which may be a bad thing. Whom it may be bad for depends on how alert T.are the military planners on each side of the :'Kusian-Canadian thousands of miles of boundary. In the thirties they used to say Canada would never -neecpto fight, as the U.S. and U.K. protected this country to the east, south and west, while climate protected the north frontier. Now even the weather has turned. :Hbw to Behave used to go around telling people CANADIANS they were stolid and unimaginative, in an effort to assert some sort of native character and be thought of as something, even if nothing much. It i$ tto longer necessary for Canadians to run themselves down in order to gain attention. This country 4ii.o.envied by others that the sound course for its citizens is modesty. When a poor dependent has 'climbed rather suddenly to an equal partnership in the Jinn he had best walk softly. Self-respect, pride, egotism are strong and useful qualities in a nation as in a man. The wise 'egotist is not always obviously promoting himself; 'he just keeps doing things well. Canadians are now ; too successful to boast. J While the Russians go on inventing everything ! and the United Statesians know they did and the t English act the role' of Mrs. Betterdays in The Mohawk Crossroads Ladies' Aid, Canadians have a opportunity to contrive a new art form in deport-ment. A suggested national model for all is the most I able and modest person one happens to know.

J inder the proposed arrangement incoming air mai will be brought by the plane leaving Vancouver ! at J2hoon and arriving here 4:50 p.m. The outbound I mail will leave at 1 :50 p.m. and arrive Vancouver i G:40'p.m. j Thought is that it might be a good deal more convenient if the northbound mail was brought on the flight leaving Vancouver 8:30 a.m. and arriving ! hej-.e .1 2:30 noon, thus permitting distribution in goo'd time the same afternoon, which would be doubtful with the 4:50 arrival. : " There should be no complaint about the south-. '. bound arrangement whereby the plane leaving here at 1:50 would carry the mail. As for the Queen Charlotte Island mail from Vancouver, it could be transferred from the direct plane on arrival at 12:30 i.'nobrr'to the 1 :30 p.m. plane which goes by way of ; Sandspit. r Quite possibly, if representations were made to l the postal department, the change as suggested J could be effected providing it is deemed advisable. I While making representations in regard to the most efficient conducting of the air mail service 5 between Vancouver and Prince Rupert, it could also ;be argued, for the benefit of both communities, that' carrying of mail be authorized on the new thrice-a-Sweek service between here and Terrace. cio maue a iragic misiaxe wnen Acceptance of the proposals would necessitate a constitu-' tional change and would in-' ' crease the number of seats in sales fall off.
