While the Atlantic Provinces Ec- onomic Council has been received with a great deal of enthusiasm by central Canada and the Dominion

interest displayed in it. it has not been easy to create enthusiasm at home. The purpose of the Atlant-

to explore every possibility of de- eloping industry, increasing pro-

to study and pubiizise the opport- unities for industry both old and new in the area.

The New England Council in the beginning placed a great deal of emphases on the importance of production and marketing surveys and in selling to any group that might possibly be interested in the advantages of locating in New Eng- land. Atlantic Provinces Econom- ic Council has this summer em- ployed a competent economist to survey and make studies of cer- tain phases of farm production and marketing in this area.

While APEC was originally the idea of the business community It has nevertheless made every provision for agricultural repres- entation and has shown commend- able intcrcst in tho problems of agriculture. Maritime growth has not kept pace with that of the rest of Canada. It may be possible to overconic this handicap but there must be organization in that direction, APEC provjdes an op-

mg THE CALL OF THE ISLAND

The west may keep the Rockies

With their caps of snowy white.

She may keep the proud old Totem Poles

Symbol of the lndiaii's might.

She can keep the Fraser Canyon Where the waters splash like rain, Andvthe wheat fields of the prair-

ies On the prairies may remain.

Let Ontario keep Niagara

Willi it's breath of foam and spray, And Quebec can keep her history And the wilderness of Gaspe.

Let New Brunswick have her wood- land

And the famed Reversing Falls.

Let Nova Scotia keep Peggy's Cove

Answer to the Artist's calla.

Newfoundland may keep her fish- erinen That around her wild coast roam, Where the lighthouse is a guiding light To guide the wanderer home.

From east to west I've wandered But no more again I'll roam. or my heart cry: for "the is- land” And the place I can call homo.

Where you live bill for the living

rid you dance for love of dance. And you sing for love of singing And lattgbters not percbance.

You may wander through It's val- leys Where a mile, And the people have I friendly word. and a friendly hand. And the warmest kind of smile.

farmstead dots each

Where there in Spring and lum- mer aunahino

And the falls are red and gold, And you hear the ring of sleigh bells

In the season of the snow.
