Reviews Book
At Study Club
"Kanada," or Canada a It I
known today, was the topic of
the Wednesday Study club
member at the Girls' Commun
ity clubhouse Wednesday after
noon. Mis Helen Bullis review
ed the book. "Here's To Can
ada," by Dorothy Duncan in
which many Interesting point
were revealed.
The country ha an area of
3,669,000 square miles stretch
ing from the Great Lakes to
the North pole and covers a
surface larger than all the 48
states of the union. The popu
lation, 10,376,786, is less than
the number of people in New
York state alone and the ma
jority of the populace reside In
southern points of Ontario and
Quebec. In the 1,317,000 square
miles of Yukon and northwest
territories are 13,953 inhabi
tants, most of them Indians and
Eskimos.
The book (tressed that Can
ada is yet a young country and
has much to discover and de
velop in her fish, fur, nickel,
asbestos, gold, sliver and ex
tensive reserves of coal. Next
to grain, Canada's most import
ant harvest is timber from
which the northlandj yield
$175,000,000 annually. Quebec
produces more maple products
than any other province in Can
ada and Ontario takes first
place in farming, trapping,
mining, electric power, banking
and manufacturing.
Although many of the Can
adian provinces share a com
mon border with the United
State relation are closest with
Ontario, the author pointed out.
Modes of travel have changed
considerably especially that of
the mounted police, who now
use hi hone only for cere
monial purpose. For regular
duty he travels by canoe, dog
sled, motorboat and airplane.
