Guardian staff car- toonist, tcld Rotarians at their weekly luncheon yesterday. A few years ago if. was extremely diffi- cult for a cartoonist to have a career in this country and many promising men went to the Unit- ed States where there is it bigger field for their art. Today there are about 20 full-time cartoonists and a number of free lance men working in Canada. In tracing the history of the profession. Mr. Runtz said that possibly the drawings found in caves in the early days might be construed as cartoons. but he he- iieved the first serious beginning was made in Rowlandson's time by those who believed in getting the idea across no matter what type of drawing was used. Ho- garth and Daumicr developed the social cartoon and the famous English magazine Punch brought cartooning to the fore. so popular had cartooning be- come and so rich the rewards of top flight artists. that almost everyone who had any talent for drawing made a try for this pro- fession and thousands took cor- respondence courses which offer- ed to make cartoonists of any- body who had innate ability. Although there is still room for good cartoonists, the field is so competitive that it no longer of- fers faibulous reward!.AThc .young cartoonist first needs a sound art training. a grounding in psycho- logy. and a fund of general know- ledge. As he is in some ways like an editorial writer. he must do a lot of research and study on the subjects he is cartooning. Former- ly most cartoons were done in pen and ink. but now the brush and crayon are popular as well. In making the cartoon. the draw- ing is often made four or five times the sire of the cartoon ap- pearing in the paper. Mr. Runta mentioned some of the great cartoonists past and present of Canada as Racey. Frise. Thorson. and Wright. Guests yesterday included Messrs. Jerome O'Brien.

Mr. Stanley. for 20 years coni- Sudbury nickel deposits of North- sm Ontario beyond the dreams of their disoovsrers. . He initiated research that found thousands of peacetime uses for nickel after the demand for the metal for armaments manufacture had slackened with the end of the First world War. Born in Little Falls. N.J.. h took his degree in mining engineer- lng at Columbia School of Mines in New York in 1901. . He joined International Nickel upon its formation in 1902 and rose to superintendent of the subsidiary American Nickel Company plant at Camden. NJ. He went to cobalt in Northern Ontario in 1906 to investigate silver discoveries. He was again in Can- ada in 1009 to study the Porcupine gold strike and, on the basis of his report. his ccmtpany acquired the Dome property near Timmins. In 1912 he became general stip- crlntcndcnt of the parent comp- any, in 1018 vice-president and in 1022 president. As an engineer. Mr. Stanley made numerous advances in nickel met- allurgy. in 1905 he discovered monei. s nickel-copper alloy out.- stsndlng in applications where strength, corrosion-resistance and appearance are requisites. In 1920 he patented his method or recover- ing nickel by electrolytic refining. He patented the Stanley process for monel refining in 1925. It used an electric furnace to make nickel- copper alloys from nickel-copper materials and to cast it directly into ingots. The present International Nickel Company of Canada. Ltd. produces '15 per cent of the world's require- ments of nickel. During the Second world War, to meet an unprece- dented demand. the finn undertook a 835,000,000 expansion program.

Around 8700 of this amount has been spent in securing the neces- sities for the homeless and the remainder will be spent according to the pressing needs of the fam- iiies. Among materials and supplies purchased for the four families were groceries. bedding, stoves. co:.l and advanced payments for three months rents. Practically all the family mem- bers have been placed in living quarters. it was learned. one or two of the victims are living at relatives. awaiting permanent quarters. More clothing than that needed was donated by charitable citizens. Mr. Gormley was high in his praise of their response and stated that the catholic Social Welfare Bur- eau Sisters contributed greatly to relieve the urgent situation by looking out for the children and providing mattresses.
