 This may be termed the "Age of Youth" No other period boasts the care, thought and specialization that is s1bestcwed on the younger generations of today. Elective courses in higher classes have de- yeloped into schools where pupils are permitted to choose their std- dies and their own way of studying.
 Summer camps for boys and girls are logical outgrowth and are growing in popularity. Eastern Canada is a popular territory for such camps and they are patroniz- ed generously by American parents.
 Moosewa and Aldercliife are two boys camps located in Nova Sco- tia. both with many successful sea- sons to their credit. The Lauren tian Mountains in Quebec afford many admirable sites for camps where mountain climbing, fishing, boating and bathing are enjoyed in the bracing. pine e-scented atmos- phere.

In response to a question by Sen ator Dimond, Mr. Knickerbacker said the rates of the Alaska Steamship Company and the Admiral Line are identical and are agreed upon by the two companies in conference, He said further that this custom was not only known to but is approved by the U. S. Shipping Board
 MT. Dimond questioned him further relative to the insurance and de- preciation reserves ca.r.cd by the company, which he explained in de- tail as boing required by the Inter state Commerce Commission and GOV cred depreciation on ships to cover necessary repairs and replacement and that the insurance reserve GOV cred certain company property, in cluding some ships, on which no in- surance was carried otherwise. It would be impossible, he contended, for the company to chargc orr an excessive amount in either form with out getting into serious trouble With the Interstate Commerce. Commission 1 Both Mir.
