Jobless Ask Inquiry Of Bus Traffic

CALGARY. ' Sept. 39. —- Investiga-

tion into the bus and truck business

o: the province was asked here yes- wrday by former employees oi the Canadian Pacific Railway in a con. ierence with Hon. Vernon Smith, minister of railways and telephones.

The delegation, composed o1 men made Jobless through closing of the railway shops here last week, urged that the province tax the motor and bus truck business, and in co-opera- tion with the federal government subject the highway passenger and freight traffic to regulations similar to those under which railways oper. ate.

"There is considerable reason in the plea of these men. and I told them that the matter would be giv- en ‘every consideration," said Mr. Smith at the close oi the confer- ence. "

T. ll. lloDwmlll. ‘Ibronto, presi- dent and general manage of the Canadian Pacific Express 00., in an address before the Calgary board of trade, said: "So far as I am ablc to see into the future of Canada, she must go forward, with railways as the main source oi her transporta- tion requirements.

“Some of the hidden costs of high- way transport which are not at the present time chflTkeable to those who use it are:

"l. The additional cost of heavier construction and greater mainten- ance of highways necessary because of the nature oi truck and bus oper- ations. ‘

"2. Aditlonal cost oi maintaining rail service during seasons when

l meals daily and while the meat is ' digested more rapidly than the cer- geals, from our experience in the ‘ ranch, it would appear to be im- material whether the meat should be ied at the evening meal o: at the morning meal. While there is no doubt that it would be most de- sirable that the stomach should be empty before the next meal is fed. as iox breeders are aware, foxes have a keener appetite for meat than for cereals. Therefore, if the cereals should be fed at the meal where there has been the longest fast, it will insure this food being eaten, so that it is very question- able whether there would be any greater advantage feeding the meat at the morning meal in preference to the evening meal, which appears to be the general practice."

TORONTO, Sept. nr-Tfllk about the Girl Guides to most people and it will be found that they consider them a sort oi minor offshoot of the Boy “ ‘ , designed so that a stray sister here and there need not feel to much out oi it when she compares her lot with her brother's

Actually, as lsord Baden-Powell re- vealed thc other day, there are more Girl Guides than Boy Scouts in this country—l00,000 more.

What is this movement that is making such enormous strides, par- ticularly among our own girls, and

dreds of girls from over thirty dif- ferent countries together in a camp near Lyndhurst?

In essence, the Girl Guide move- ment is the same as the Boy Scout one. Both aim at producing good cltizens-resouroeful-seli reliant and imbued with the spirit of mutual help. Like the Scouts, the Guides are expected to do one good deed every day-and they do it.

The Guides have their own camps and their own rallies. They learn to do all sorts of things, and when they have learned them thoroughly and passed tests in them, they get badges for proficiency.

For instance, there is a cooking badge. To win this a girl must be able to make plain cake, cook vege- tables, and also prepare and cuok certain simple dishes oi meat, atc. No bad testi One wonders how many typists in the big city offices could make any sort of shape at it.

So, while the Guide movement makes its appeal primarily to the adventurous instinct which the best little girls, like the best little boys. always possess, it doesn't forget the "womanly" things. And the young men of tomorrow who marry ex- member oi this great sisterhood will be sure of getting wives who can not only face up to emergencies when emergencies happen along, but can also do the routine jobs of “ousekeeping-those Jobs on which a man's comfort and digestion de- pend-ln the right way.
