The year 1912 with its achievements
_..._ failures. its joys and its sorrows
is closed and a. new volume is being
opened.
The past year has been an eventful
one. On the pages of future history
it win srosu ioi-over scsissd with the
record of one of the hloodiest .and
cruelest wars in recent centuries, the
war in the Balkans, and the new year
sees the war still in progress, still
illled with menace to Europe and the
world.
In Great Britain it has seein much
social unrest, some labor troubles.
another step forward in the growing
democracy which is gradually revolu-
tiosaing tho oid land, but withsi tho
strength, the confidence and the ever
increasing prosperity that has for
ages been the distirlguiiihiilg fW-turd
of the land of the flag on which the
sun never sets.
In Canada there has been uninter-
rupted prosperity. Immigretion has
reached a figure never before BP-
proached in her history. Jack Canuck
is a growing, lusty youth and, this
year, has generously oflered to help
his father by sending a Christmas
present of thirty-five million dollars
to build three dresdnaughts, which
the old man does not particularly
need but which hc will accept with 8.

NOTES.
It is hoped that with the little
break on the western route, caused
by the accident to the Earl Grey,
the Minto's work there will be car-
ried to a satisfactory conclusion this
winter and that there shall be no
further interruptions until the limit
‘set by the Department, “as long as
possible," will have been reached.
The landingof 'malls and passengers
at Tormentino on Saturday in tho
teeth of one of the heaviest gales in
years is the topic of discussion in
marine circles and Captain John L_
Read is receiving unstlnted and well-
merited praise for his skill and un-
conquerable determination. When he
announces that the “as long as pos-
slble" has been reached there will be
no doubts raised.
