The erection oi new churches and schools goes on space; there has been marked progress in the realm as well as in social welfare and humanitar- icn effort.

But any summing up of Nineteen-Thirty leav- cs ’a healthy credit mark to the good, and as a bassls of encouragement for fthc future. -’ Our Extensive Trade Radiation v The ramifications of Canadian ‘trade continued on a world-wide scale during $370, covering a hundred or more countries and ports. This is in striking contrast with the narrower "limits oi‘ earlier days. Ships carry- ing Canadian products found their way to the Seven Seas and scores of British and foreign ports. from the Atlantic seaboard and the Pacific portals of Vancouver and Victoria. - The increase in the nll Dominion ‘ trade of 621 per ccnt between 190') and the present, or from 355 millions ‘in value to two and a half billions, tells the story from a. different angle. ‘ For example, Canada sells fish to amliundred countries, canned. salmon l to-Ihair as many, fruit to distant lands well as Great Britain our agricul- tural implements go around the a; realm 9g vforld, railway ties to the Soudan, macaroni to China, butter to Ilong- by the British trade,- ‘ ‘IKchg, and cool to Peru.

There is a. satisfactory absence of electoral corruption compared with former days. Democracy in the making is showing advance. We seldom need to apologize for our leaders, indeed we may point with pride to the char- acter of our teri premiers snd their cabinet personnels, as well as the peo- ple's representatives. They strlkehs. high an average in 1930 as in pre- vious years. The high reputation of our judiciary has on the whole been nlaintained. The attempts to defy the law have brought severe punish- ment. Mob law is practically unknown, n lynching would be unthinkable, and the reign of law-the basis of nl‘. civilization-is recognized in Can- ada as in other. psi-ts oi the Em- pire. l This does not imply that we are free from dangers or disintegrating tendencies. Eternal vigilance is still the price oi national integrity. The drink evil continues to be an evil; ally degree of gambling is an un- healthy symptom. Sectional Jealous- ies retard national advance and any lowering of ethical standards reacts on every citizen but with dangers and tendencies such as these fully realized and faced the future may also be faced with courage and hope. 1930 may therefore be summed up as, upon the'whole, a. good average year, with substantial prospects in i031 for a Happy.

Yet, as Dr. J. S. Lsnkford, points out, it didn't start out very well when we remember that every ail- ment where there wss s fever or high temperature, was treated in the most ridiculous manner; bleeding, purging, induced vomiting, blisters; no bath, no water allowed in the hottest fever. And this treatment prevailed for over twenty years. Then came the pathologist who studied the tissues affected by dis- case, the physiologist who studied the tissue swhen in normal health; and experiments on animals. Records of all this were kept for general everyday use. Then came the use of anaesthetics, and operations were rendered pain- less-the greatest blessing that ever came to humanity. Then came Pasteur with his know- ledge of organisms and Lister who applied this to surgery, thus render- ing surgery safe for the first time in history. _ Koch then discovered the tubercle organism. Klebs and Loeffler dis- covered the diphtheria organism which was quickly followed by the development of antltixin, and the reduction oi deaths from diphtheria from thirty to forty per cent to less than one per cent. Roentgen, discovered the X ray, whose value is beyond words. Brown-Sequard, and Sajous then opened up the marvels of the duct- less glands showing how these glands were regulators of the various pro- cesses oi the body. Then came more knowledge of the foods and their values, including the wonderful vitamins. Banting then discovered insulin and‘ that dread ailments, diabetes, was brought under control. Finally Minot snd Murphy dis- covered a cure for that baffling dis- ease pernicious anaemia by the use of the liver of animals. Oi course there are s. great many other-developments that should be mentioned—-clinics, hospitals, nfises, more accurate instruments, public hygiene. However the big thing is that medicine is now stripped of all my- story, and measures to help mankind are progressing rapidly all over the world.
