Britain's panacea for economic ills.

Colonists, until the last afty years, have always been land work ors, with the physique and the handiness of men with seasonal oc- cupations. A party of such men and women could build their own houses, break up virgin soil, clear the forest, eke out supplies by hunt- ing, and Bshing, live hard for a few years and struggle into comparitive prosperity. Then they were able to take on assistants, and settle- ments developed into townships. This was notably the process in America, where the growth wns facilitated by supplies of British capital, for building roads and railways, the purchase of machinery and other expenses of founding new centres of human activity.

Mr. Sinclair Lewis, the American novelist, has revealed that his latest book deals with the life of an American business woman.

He is enthusiastic regarding its possibilities of success, and no duuht it will join the already long list of best sellers, which include "Babbitt," "Main Street," "Elmer Gantry," and "Arrowsmith."

Mr. Lewis was trained as a re
