Curiously, this ambition to win out in competition is one of, per- haps the greatest, means by which the progress of the world is main- tained. Many of the rich b_ecome richer and by their increased wealth many of the poor have become poor- er and by the increased wealth of the one the world's material wealth and material progress are increased. Perhaps some day the limitations of honesty and fair dealing may form part of our business methods. may enable the strong competitor to show some compassion for his weaker brotherand enable him to prosper, but we have not yet arrived at that stage. The right to make all one can and keep out of the peniten- tiary is a far-reaching one and at present there appears to be no help for it except the honesty and honor aforesaid and these do not appear to keep with competition.

States seems absurd and unreason- able as well as foolish. The big re- public can be in no possible danger’ of attack from any quarter. No air fleet would attempt in cross the Atlantic whatever the provocation to do so might be. The United States has now a navy equal to that of Great Britain, and far greater than that of any other of the great powers-incomparably greater than that of France. And in the late war American and French armies were fighting side by side against a. common enemy. No nation on the face of the earth is so secure against invasion or attack by sea or land or air as the United States.

Rayon is the name given tirartl- ficial silk, the production of which is very rapidly increasing in various countries. It is now being manufac- tured at Cornwall, Ontarlo—where the mechanical and chemicgl pro- cess of converting vegetable fibre in- to thread and textile fabrics is being carried on day and night. Some idea may be formed of the extent of ray- on produetion in the world by the fact that Canada alone in i925 im- ported artificial silk ‘to the value 0f $4,914,005, while partly manufactured goods of the same material account- ed for over $3,000 more.
