YOUNGER WOMEN An authority on hygiene and physical development is author of the statement that women, are younger today at forty than ever and, at all ages, are healthier than the women -"t of preceding genertions. l' A generation or two ago the average woman of forty was .; a lady who wore a shawl across her' shoulders while she sat by the fire and crocheted. ?he was well past the, prime of life and was pretty well tiretj out. . Today, the woman of forty looks to he thirty, plays golf -ir' and tennis and drives an automobile, engages in some pas ,nt. times daring the evening, and then is down first to breakfast in the, morihg fresh 'arid ready for another day, which would have been a killing pace in graridmother's day. ' One of the causes for this extraordinary healthfulness of the modern woman is the change that has taken place in her mode of clothing herself. She no longer wraps herself , up like an Egyptian mummy or loads herself down with pounds of heavy and superfluous raiment; , v But has not woman's attitude toward herself contributed much to. her transformation? Though; a mother of several children she can . now go iii fori various activities and dress youthfully without fear of criticism., The women of today $re to be congratulated on the great advance step they have taken.

Si ' : , CANADA-UN1TJED STATES MIGRATIONS 1 f During the early years of the great industrial boom in the tjiiited States, Canadian workers came across the border in fine) large numbers ns to excite great alarm in the dominion,, lyhoso development and prosperity depended mainly upon a hipidly' growing population. 'The United States was get ting' the men Canada desperately, needed. , V In 1925 the United States attracted 122,181 Canadians, arid' fos several years after that the pull southward was nearly as strong. Although Canada was drawing emigrants from the United States, at the same timte, the balance of exchange always favored this country. j. Tho extraordinary steps taken1 by the dominion govern ment to check this exodus and to draw Americans to Canada, whiclf were to some extent successful, have not been neces sary since the Industrial and agricultural slump below the international boundary. The United States is not now so much of a land of promise to Canadians, and there are oppor tunities for pioneering Americans in the. Canadian North west. . '...,.. ,: . i During the first seven months of last year 13,641 Caiia dians returned to Canada, and also 10,000 citizens of the United States, The Canadian population passed the 10,' 000,000 mark last year. ,.

They assure continuous sympathy, Understanding and peace between them and along that peaceful border that is the marvel of the world. .
