Important Harbour In North

Dutch Harbour In Aleutian Islands
One Of Finest

Although the Aleutians are located
in the far north their climate is not
severely cold. Rather they may be
said to be always “chilly,” damp and
foggy. Dutch Harbour, Unalaska, is
the first harbour of importance in the
jislands. This deep, landlocked har-
bour is one of the finest in the North
and has played an important part as
a way station for ships during the
gold rushes to the Yukon and to
Nome. It is connected with the rest
of the world by a radio station. Dutch
Harbour is on the shortest route from
Seattle to Tokyo, and with the estab-
lishment of coaling stations may con-
ceivably become such a Pacific way

With the appointment of A. J.
Clar?:, to the position of farmi manag-
er in the Melita, Mantioba zone, the
the Colonization Finance Corporation
of Canada, Limited, completes its
farm management programme in the
province of Manitoba and eastern Sas-
katchewan. More than 400 farms in
this area are now under expert man-
agement and cover an agricultural
district approximately 170,000 acres.
Mr. Clark, who was born in Mon-
treal, came to Manitoba as a child,

ours in animal husbandry. He shortly
became attached to the
branch of the Saskatchewan Govern-
ment, where he remained as purchas-
ing agent until 1926, his duties tak-
ing him not only over western Canada
but through both Ontario and Quebec.
Since 1926 he has been on his own
farm at Stonewall, Man., where he
has specialized in pure bred shorthorn
cattle and Yorkshire swine.

With Frank W. Reinoehl as chief
farm manager, the following six have
been stationed by the Colonization

over his new duties immediately:
Russell W. Gowland, Winnipeg zone;
H. J. Siemens, Brandon; A. R. Jud-
son, Dauphin; W. J. McLeod, Mooso-

Exploring Mystery Of
Easter Island Images

New Jersey Millionaire Taking Scien-
tists To South Seas:

A yacht, reputed to have cost more
than $1,500,000, nosed its ~ shining
white hull into Glen Cove Harbour,
New York, to be made ready for @
trip to Easter Island, where 20 scien-
tists will attempt to solve the mys
tery of a “lost civilization.” The is-
land is in the Polynesian group in the
South Pacific Ocean.

Since the discovery of the island
on Easter Sunday, 1722, by the Dutch
Admiral Roggeveen, there have been
various indications of existence of a
past culture.

‘The expedition of Pldridge R. John-
son, of Moorestown, N.J., will try to
determine, among other things, who
carved and erected huge stone stat-
utes on the island; who made the
wooden images, found in profusion
there; and what feats of engineering
Were required to move the stone im-

tons.

Huge blocks of stone form the walls
surrounding some of the cities, and
the origin of the stone is a mystery.

Aerial Photography

Speed and Vibration Make Fast Lens
A Necessity

In the camera equipment for aerial
mapping operations as carried on by
the Topographical Survey of the De-
partment of the Interior through the
co-operation of the Royal Canadian
Air Force, a fast lens must be em-
ployed, as not only must the speed
}of the aeroplane be taken into ac-
count, but also any vibration that
| may occur to the camera which its
| mounting in the 'plane does not elim-
|inate. As a general practice, lenses
working at a maximum aperture
equal to one-quarter of its focal

|

jlength, are employed. Lenses of this)

speed and having a fairly large cov-
ering power are now obtainable. To
further speed up the action of ob-
taining the aerial photographic
record, the emulsion with which the|
photographic film is coated, is espe-
cially prepared by the manufacturers
so as to be supersensitized to the
image-forming rays of light.

Arctic Posts May Be Given To
Canadians In Future

An important change in policy on
the part of the historic Hudson's Bay
Company is being talked of in the
western Arctic. It is understood that
Ashley Cooper, the new governor of
the company, decided that hereafter
Canadians shall be offered posts in all
Canadian areas rather than the previ-
osu policy whereby ambitious young
men from the Old Country were
aa in. The Northern Trading

To Solve World Troubles

Noted British Author Says World
Should Be Declared Bankrupt
H. G. Wells, noted British author,
has formulated the following prescrip-
|tion for the ills of the world:

The world should be declared bank-
rupt and its debts written down.

The issuance of money should be re-
stricted to one central world author-
ity.
War should be abolished and all
foreign offices, diplomatic services,
arsenals, dockyards, war offices,
navies and air-forces scrapped, dis-
banded and pensioned.

‘The earth should be ruled by a dic-
tatorship, not of this man or that
man, but of informed and educated

{common sense.

Canada’s Oldest Tunnel

The Canadian Pacific Railway tun-
nel under the Town of Brockville, On-
tario, was opened Sept. 16, 1854, 77
years ago. At that time the tunnel,
built under great difficulties, was
lowned and operated by the Brock-
| ville and Ottawa Railway, later ab-
sorbed by the Canada Central Rail-
way, and finally by the Canadian Pa-
cific. It is said to be the oldest rail-
way tunnel in the Dominion, and

\trains still pass through it daily.

Motor Vehicles In Canada
There were 1,239,886 motor vehicles
registered in Canada at the end of
1930, an increase of 44,249 over the
total registration at December 31,
1929. The “automobile density” of
Canada is one motor vehicle for every

eight persons In the Dominion.

“Husbands,” said an old Scottish
woman, “are verra like teeth. They're

but they leave an awful blank ahint
