Glancing through a little trade magazine the other day the writer
came across a short bit of verse entitled “Wreckers”, which, in these days
and times, is worthy of still wider circulation. So we reproduce it:

{

I watched them tearing a building down,
A gang of men in a busy town.
With a ho-heave-ho and a lusty yell,
They swung a beam and the side wall fell.

I asked the foreman, “Are these men skilled.
And the men you'd hire if you had to build?”
He gave a laugh and said, “No, indeed!”
Just common labor is all I need.
I can easily wreck in a day. or two
What builders have taken a year to do.”

I thought to myself as I went my way,
Which of these roles have I tried to play?

Am I a builder who works with care,
Measuring life by the rule and square?

Am I shaping my deeds to a well-made plan,
Patiently doing the best I can?

Or am I a wrecker, who walks the town,
Content with the labor of tearing down?

\

All over this world of ours there are men and women earnestly. striv-
ing to build,—people in governments, in churches, in education, in finance,
in industry, in business; statesmen around the League of Nations council
table, sitting in international conferences, or engaged in diplomatic nego-
tiations. They are trying to build anew out of the wreckage and upheaval
of political, economic and social conditions thrown into chaos by the Great
War and its bitter aftermath. They are striving to save civilization, and
make it a finer thing than anything hitherto known.

But because the times are temporarily out of joint, weaknesses have
developed in the economic system, social evils have become multiplied; in a
word, because abnormal conditions exist and many people are in difficulties,
the “wreckers” have become bold and walk the town blatantly engaged in
the easiest of all tasks—that of tearing down. Men and wonien who never
constructed anything, who lack both the ability and the incentive to con-
struct, are busying themselves in criticizing the efforts of the builders, im-
puting unworthy motives to them, seeking to wreck anything and every-
thing of a constructive nature that is attempted.

Even the best and most patient of people are inclined to be critical
and become fault-finders. In fact, how often are people now heard to
speak in praise of anything, of any institution, or of any effort that is being

Indian Did Not Forget |

Sends Gift To Lawyer Who Saved
His Son In Trial

Sixteen months ago a Nanaimo

jury acquitted Andrew Moses, slen-

der Port Alberni Indian, of a charge

of attempted murder—a charge laid

after an Indian from the west coast

of Vancouver Island, who had alleg-|
edly stolen Andrew's girl-wife, was)
stabbed through the heart and saved!

from death by a young Victoria sur-
geon.

For two days the jury listened to
how Andrew had followed his pretty
18-year-old wife whom he had mar-
ried according to Indian custom.

When he found her there was a
fight and Charlie Sam was stabbed
in the heart. Sam's life was in doubt
for more than a month but he re-
covered eventually and Moses went
on trial.

When the jury returned its verdict
Chief Moses, Andrew's father, broke
a two-day court room silence. “I
don’t forget you,” ht said to R. L.
Maitland, K.C., his son’s counsel. “I
don’t forget you save Andrew's life.
Andrew's good. boy. You won't for-
get me.”

Recently Mr. Maitland received
two eight-foot intricately carved
totem poles. What each figure and
character denotes he will probably
never fully know, but whenever he
looks at them he will know that the
old chief did not forget.

BROKE HER LEG
AGAINST A STAIR

Whilst Hampered by
Rheumatism

“Two years ago,’ writes a woman,
“I was suffering with rheumatism in
my legs, and when walking upstairs
one day just kicked my right foot

against the stairs, and broke my leg
just below the kn I was in hos-
pital for four months, and when I
came out someone advised me to try
Kruschen Salts. I did so, and now I
have no trace of rheumatism. I
would not be without my daily dose
of Kruschen, which I take every
morning—half a teaspoonful in warm
water.”—Mrs. P. B.

The six salts in Kruschen stimulate
the liver and kidneys to healthy,
regular action: assist them to get rid
of the excess uric acid which is the
cause of rheumatic pains. When
poisonous uric acid goes—with its
deposits of needle-pointed crystals—
there's no doubt about those aches
and pains going too!

THE SPECTROSCOPE

(By Gordon H. Guest, M.A.)

Scientists have shown that the
earth and every star which can be
observed by the telescope, including
the most distant, are composed of the
same substances. Of course the pro-
portions are different, but the sub-
stances are not.

“Idea Netted Personal Fortune

Sir Guy Standing Made fone Sell-
ing Old War Equipment

If it had not been for the Great
War, Sir Guy Standing might not
have been able to take up acting as
a hobby.

He is well known for the excellence
of his paintings and his adventures
in the British navy, for which he was
knighted by the king. But he said
that when the king’s sword descend-
ed on his shoulders, he had but $40
in his pocket.

Sir Guy, after the war, observed
miles of United States tanks, trac-
tors, automobiles and other equip-
ment lined along the Rhine. He
formed the Motor Organization, Ltd.,

the train of thought
that led to this discovery. Newton
observed that the prism split up
ordinary sunlight into the various
colors of which it is composed. The
prism was the beginning of a very
powerful instrument of science, name-
ly the spectroscope, which was de-
veloped about a hundred years later,
It is this instrument that tells us
that all the suns and planets are
composed of the same materials in
different proportions.

The spectroscope sees more “than
our eyes enable us to see. Man can
only observe those substances that
give off vibrations to which our eyes
are sensitive. The spectroscope is
sensitive to all yibrations that mat-
ter sends out. ‘e cannot see color-
less gases, but the spectroscope can,
In fact this instrument can see gases

another, This is because every solid
substance and every kind of gas
sends out vibrations, each having a
rate of vibration of its own. Science

When the transaction was com-

material it would have to get rid of.
Such competition would ruin his com-
pany, so he managed to buy this
equipment as well. It took nine
years for the company to sell and

clear its books, but the result was|

a large personal fortune for him.

“A fortune,” he explained, “which
permitted me to make acting my
favorite hobby.

“But you can be sure of one thing.
I’m through with big business. It
leaves too many gray hairs.””

Sir Guy is 60 and one of Holly-
wood’s popular characters.

put forth? Rather, is it not the general attitude to and attach
blame?

The popular thing to-day seems. to be to destroy, to wreck. In some
countries they are deliberately trying to destroy religion and so to revert
to the dark ages; in these and other countries the attempt is being made
to deprive people of liberties won through the suffering and bloodshed of
past generations. The wreckers would in a day tear down the constructive
work of centuries.

There are those, of course, who still hold fast to the faith that is in
them; who still believe in liberty Ss the sacred right of the individual citi-
zen; who hold true to forms of go) nt and trust in the
people and hatred of dictatorial autrcrseten

Builder or wrecker—which are you? Which class has brought mankind
to its present civilization? Which class lifted mankind from the caveman
Which group has ped modern which is r
for modern inventions, which built our t tation and
systems, our modern towns and cities, which brought into being the higher
standard of life in this twentieth century? And was it not the wreckers
who precipitated the Great War and are responsible for the whole train of
evils which have followed.

The builders are still building in the face of enormous difficulties and
the opposition of the wreckers; the builders are striving to save civilization
which the wreckers would destroy through revolution and bloodshed in order
that out of civilization’s crash they may reap goulish benefits,

Each of us may well take stock of ourselves, study our present habits
of thinking, examine our actions, watch our words—in brief, take a measure
of our lives and see whether we are builders, “patiently doing the best we
can,” or merely wreckers “content with the labor of tearing down.”

A plea for completion of two
lines of the Canadian Na-

standing committee on railways by
C. R. McIntosh (Lib., North Battle-
ford), Mr. McIntosh was supported
in his request by P. G. Davies (Cons.,
Athabaska).

At present a branch line runs
north from North Battleford, Sask,
to St. Walberg, a distance of 90
miles, but the remaining 100 miles
to Beaver River Crossing is unfin-
ished. This line was projected origin-
ally to join North Battleford with
Edmonton. Mr. McIntosh urged the
road be completed, and estimated the
cost to be not more than $350,000.

The other line was from North
Battleford to Edmonton, via Spruce
Lake.

Motor Car Industry

Demand For Cars In United States
Puts Industry In High Gear

The No. 1 industrial colossus of the
United States, the motor car indus-
try, is in high gear. In haul-away
trucks, in freight cars and in drive-
away processions the product of the
assembly lines is moving from fac-
tory to dealer and on to consumer
in heavier volume than at any time
during the last five years. 1

Gaining momentum steadily under
the impetus of a swelling consumer
demand, the industry has assembled
more than 1,313,000 passenger cars
and trucks since Jan. 1. During 16
weeks of 1935, ‘the industry produced
as many units as were manufactured
in all of 1932. Output for that year,
lowest point in the depression, was
1,431,494 cars and trucks.
