A recent analysis of the induce- ments that bring visitors to Canada from across the barder showed that the strongest attraction is new and striking scenery. Beauty, spiced by wonder, is the greatest lure to travel, and this is the outstanding appeal made by the national parks. THE BANK OF TAIWAN, LTD. But, while the parks are an increas

Laboratory Instruments. Medical Department:Special and Expenditure. Adjustment calibration of Laboratory Instru ments: $320.
The laboratory .instruments which were sent to Britain for repair and adjustment were not completed and returned in time for their payment to be included in 1929 accounts. The sum vot ed for this purpose in the 1929 Estimates, viz. $500 has therefore lapsed. The arrival of Crown Agents accounts for January necessitates this request for a re- vote of $320.
