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. '-:'.'.'.':;' :' ' :- i; .

: , 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. ,. '' ' :
. These exchanges of citizens are beneficial to both coun
tries. They assure continuous sympathy, Understanding and
peace between them and along that peaceful border that is
the marvel of the world.

brown shirts of Europe get their converts among those who
have no shirts of their own,
