CANADA SUFFERS MUCH
 ON ACCOUNT OF WAR
Ten Thousand Dwellings Vacant in
 the City of Toronto.

Canada had been financially very sick since 1913, having borrowed be- yond reason. No part of the empire was so ill prepared to meet war cris- is, and none met it more bravely. Cost of living jumped. Enlistment of nearly 130O00 reduced supply of labor. A "back to the land" move ment was inaugurated. Canada had been growing in the wrong direction; despite increase of S4 per cent in pop ulation by immigration, rural com munities had gained only l7 per cent in 10 years, while the urban increase had been 62 per cent. Land under cultivation had decreased from 4.62 to 4.42 acres per capita between 1909 and 1913. The new campaign has brought an increased acreage in grain alone from 20 per cent; this years agricultural production will be 30 per ! cent to 40 per cent above 1914.
 The government has granted leave of absence to SO,OOO enlisted men in camps; they may retain harvest pay and also their soldiers stipend. The government had distributed seed grain to the value of more than s. 300, 900. besides direct relief of over 100000.
 The western provinces gave their cities aid in caring for the unemplOy- ed. Ontario commission has recom- mended government employment az encies, industrial insurance and vOca- tionl guidance-a socialistic program that would have shocked Canada two years ago.
 Manitoba is the only province that enacted a general moratorium. Others left it to the courts to deter mine as to whether foreclosures should be permitted. There is com plaint in Manitoba that the morator- ium is working harm, and agitation for its abolishment. Unwritten law in Canada since the war is that prin- cipal shall not be exacted where in- terest is kept up and the debtor shows reasonable excuse. Building trades have been the hardest hit. In Toronto 10000 dwellings are vacant. But business sentiment is now more optimistic than for the past Is months. The impetus from war orders is beginning to be felt.
 Thrift now prevails. The consump- tion of spirits fell off SOO,OOO gallons, cigars 4S,OOO,OOO and cigarettes 27,- OOO.OOO in the fiscal year ended on March 3l.-Boston News Bureau.

QUEEN ESTHER

To Be Given Oct. 26 and ?
 The Douglas Island Womau's Club has arranged to give the sacred opera "Queeu Esther" and rehearsals are now being held each evening in the auditor ium of the Douglas High School, under the direction of Martin D. Robinson, and the production promises to be even a greater success than was Piuaiore, as given by the local talent in August
 Mr. Robinson has for years made a speciality of this opera and brings with him a complete outfit of oriental cos- tunes suitable for the entire cast and chorus, and his staging and dramatic action of the opera combined with the beautiful harmouies and melodies of the opera, make it one of the best en. tertaiumeuts that can be given by ann ateurs. About forty singers are CD gagged in the production and the best singers of Douglas Island are assem bled in the east
 Tbe story of "Queen Esther" is very interesting and each actor has an op portuuity to portray some of nearly all the phases of human character When King Ahasuerus divorced his queen, Vashti, he caused all the most beauti- ful maidens in his kingdom to be gath. cred together at his palace that he might select the most beautiful of all to be his queeu. The choice tell upon Esther, the niece of the Jew, Mordecai who was one of the keepers of the kings gate. Esther did not disclose her nationality or connection with the Hebrew people.
 Hamau was prime minister aud fla vorite of the king, and hereditary enc my of the Jews, SO when he noticed Mordecai did not bow down and do him homage as The couriers were wont to do, he became angry aud thought to destroy the entire community of Jews throughout the kingdom. With this end in view be obtained a decree from the king that all the Jews were to be destroyed and their property confs- cated.
 When Mordecai learned of this de- cree, he besought the queen to Letitiou the king for the safety of her people, which she did at the peril of her own life, on account of the law that no one shall enter the presence of tbe king

FLOOD OF GOLD pouRs INTO us.

As the end of the half year approach es, it is interesting to note that we have imported nearly half the amount of gold, on exchange operations that we exported during 1914.
 Last year next exports through New York amounted to $l91 ,543,O0O. There was exported to Paris a total of $ss,20O,000. to London $36, 6,s0000o, to Berlin $1,000,000 and to Canada $73,31S.000. Against this amount must be deducted $7,775,000 receiv- ed from Canada.
 If we continue to import gold for the next six months at the rate we have been doing since January l. we shall receive back practically all that was lost last year.
 The total gold engaged for import on the present movement since the beginning of the year now amounts to $S5,345,ooO.
 By countries, the sources of the known gold imports since January ! were as follows CanAda $57 7,920000, China $3,70O,OOO, Japan $S,375.00o, London $1,050,000, South America $I, 100000 Denmark $300,0O0, Holland, t2,000,o0O and France $11,500,000.
