and during his lifetime the tactful way in which he filled it was very inadequately appreciated.The public life of the prince- consort cannot be separated from that of the queen.The prejudice against him, on account of what was regarded as undue influence in politics, was never fully dissipated till after his death.His co-operation with the queen in dealing with the political responsibilities which devolved upon the sovereign represented an amount of conscientious and self-sacri- ficing labor which cannot easily be exaggerated; and his wids- dom in council could only be realized.outside a very small circle, which in later years the materials of the history of that time became accessible.A Cultured Man: He was indeed a man of cultured and liberal ideas, well qualified to take the lead in many reforms which the England of that day sorely needed.He was specially interested in endeavours to secure the more perfect application of science and art to manufacturing industry.The Great Exhibition of 1851 originated in a suggestion he made at a meeting of the Society of Arts, and owed the greater part of his success to his intelligent and unwearied efforts.He had to work for its realization against an extraordinary outburst of angry expostulations.Every stage in his project was combated.In the House of Peers, Lord Brougham denied the right of the crown to hold the exhibition in Hyde Park; in the Commons, Colonel Sibthorp prophesied that England would be overrun with foreign rogues and revolutionists, who would subvert the morals of the people, filch their trade secrets from them, and destroy their faith and loyalty towards their religion and their sovereign.Received Abusive Letters Prince Albert was president of the exhibition commission, and every post brought him abusive letters, accusing him, as a forcigner, of being intent upon the corruption of England.He was not the man to be balked by talk of this kind, but quietly persevered.The exhibition was opened by the Queen on the 1st of May 1851, and was a colossal success; and the realized surplus of £150,000 went to establish and endow the South Kensington Museum (afterwards renamed \u201cVictoria and Alert\u201d, and to purchase land in that neighborhood.Similar institutions, on a smaller scale but with a kindred aim, always found in him warm advocacy and substantial support.It was chiefly at meetings in connection with these that he found occasion for the delivery of addresses characterized by profound thought and comprehensiveness of view, a collection of which was published in 1857.One of the most favourable specimens of his powers as a speaker is the inaugural address which he delivered as president of the British Association for the Advancement of Science when it met at Aberdeen in 1859.The education of his family and management of his domestic affairs furnished the prince with another very important sphere of action, in which he employed himself with conscientious devotedness.A Good Manager The estates of the Duchy of Cornwall, the hereditary appendage of the Prince of Wales, were so greatly improved under his father\u2019s management that the rent-roll rose from 11,000 pounds to 50,000 a year.Prince Albert, indeed had a peculiar talent for the management of landed estates.His model farm at Windsor was in every way worthy of the name; and the grounds at Balmoral and Osborne were laid out entirely in conformity with his designs.As the prince became better (Continued on page 6) Your RED CROSS is Ju Serving Today Ready for Tomorrow Let our experts take over your problem !

Does the petty government official who snarls|- \u201cParlez francais!\u201d think he's making his Province a better place to live in?He makes it unpleasant all around! We think that those of us who genuinely want the best of both worlds, French and English, are being held up to some form of unspecified ransom by the narrow-mind- ed bigots on both sides.It's about time for a third and unequivocal force to assert itself, in Quebec and across Canada: This is of those Canadians, regardless of mother tongue or origin, who genuinely seek to understand, converse with and love one another, Canada\u2019s power export likely to increase YOU SAY Foster caring underpaid Sir: In the March 31st issue of The Examiner, a sympathetic and understanding letter was written by Mrs.Sheila Baxter, a foster parent.She was responding to a letter from a mother alone with four young children, who, in choosing to keep her children, received less support and fewer benefits than a foster parent with the same number of foster children would do.Most of us would agree with Mrs.Baxter's kindly comments both in respect to the other mother's position and to the need for friendly counsel and encouragement.Foster caring is certainly underpaid, as Mrs.Baxter states, but she points out that sharing one\u2019s home and affection with foster children brings joys and satisfactions which are more rewarding than any financial gain.The need for foster family homes for children of all ages, race and creed, is so great that the child care agencies are constantly seeking foster parents like Mrs.Baxter.Anyone interested should telephone the Foster Home Recruiting Centre, 937-2589 for more information.MISS EILEEN B.GRIFFIN, Executive Director, Foster Home Recruiting Centre, 4018 St.Catherine st.west.Wheelchairs needed desperately Sir: This is an urgent appeal for wheelchairs ., .We have received many requests from people who have been stricken with Multiple Sclerosis asking us to help them get wheelchairs.These patients, most of whom are young adults, are desperate; they are obliged to stay in bed because they can not afford to buy them.IT am writing to you in the hope that you will print this letter so that the public will be made aware of the plight of these unfortunate victims, Surely there is a wheelchair somewhere \u2014 in an attic or basement that is not being used.Please, won't you bring some happiness and encouragement to someone who is in need of that chair and help them get a new lease on life.Being a victim of Multiple Sclerosis, I understand full wel} the frustration a person can feel when they must depend upon others to do things that they could do for themselves if they had a wheelchair available.Now that Spring is here, and the weather is nicer, these people who have been shut in all winter would be able to be taken out if they only had a wheelchair at their disposal.Just call me, Mrs.Evelyn G.Opal at 484-9028 or 482- 4269 and 1 will make any arrangements necessary.Mrs.Evelyn G.Opal, President.Mentreal Association for of power.Canada already ranks sixth in the world in production of electric power and is second in production of water-generated electricity.Water power accounted for 75 per cent of Canada\u2019s generating capacity in 1965.But it is expected for 75 per cent of Canada\u2019s generating capacity in pected that water power will be superceded by thermal plants as the main source of electrical energy at some time in the future, as total production increases.: The increase in exports of eleetric energy was made possible by a change of policy in 1963.At that time the Canadian Government abolished the export tax on electric energy and announced a policy for the development ef large low-cost power sources within Canada and the encouragement of export of surplus power te the United States.The new policy opened up large investment possibilities on three rivers, the Columbia in British Columbia, the Nelson in Manitoba and the Churchill River in Labrador.It appears likely that.within the next decade power from these locations can be made available to the United States markets on a firm basis and at prices which would be mutually advantageous.Also involved is the international tidal development at Pas- samaquoddy, in the Bay of Fundy between Maine and New Brunswick.For the future, growth in power consumption and close coordination of power systems are seen as the twin ingredients for further reductions in power costs.A long-term downward trend in electric rates, made possible by technological progress, has Increasing exports of electric power to the United States appear likely within the next 10 years, along with the continued phenomenal growth in Canada\u2019s own use There appears to be general agreement that the fastest growing market in the years ahead will be the residential market with its potential for space heating, air conditioning and greater use of electricity for appliances and improved lighting.Large Increases Generation of electric power in Canada inereased from about 12 billion kilowatt hours in 1926 to some 48 billion kwh in 1950 and over 134 billion kwh in 1964.It is estimated that by 1975, Canadian consumption will reach 245 billion kwh, Hydre and thermal generation complement each other.Thermal plants have certain clear-cut advantages: \u2014 They can be built close to area of high consumption; \u2014 They ean produce additional seeurity for services in areas now dependent on long distance transmission lines; \u2014 They can guickly supplement generation from hydro-elec- tric plants on rivers with widely fluctuating flows; \u2014 Idle eapacity in a thermal plant, even if it represents less revenue, means less costs since no fuel is used.Apart from these considerations, the choice between hydro or thermal power is likely to be determined in Canada by the availability of water power.More Power It is estimated that if the Canadian rivers were regulated to provide a continuous flow of constant magnitude, available undeveloped power would be more than four and a half times the present developed water power.Much of this potential cannot be developed economically, however, partly because of location and partly because of the expense involved in regulating water flow.been important to the growth in consumption, In addition to actual facilities (Continued on page 7) Multiple Sclerosis.ACROSS £4.Mrs, 1, Describing Truman à male DOWN party 1, What the 5.Elevators bore should 9.Soft drink make 10, Astringent himself 11, Certain 8.Like a recordings James Bond 12, Main idea or feature 8, Out of 14.Gaelle - the wind 18.Not many 6.Motorists 16.South buy of Ark, 8.Caravan 17.One of 83 drivers 18.Hon.in Ky.6.Below: 19, Clique naut, 20.Isiamie TV, Habit holy ety 8.Quiet 22.Irregular laughs 24.Carrie Nation\u2019s foe 28, Goddess of healing 26.Precipitous 28.Moved swift] 81.To: 82.Than: Ger, 84.Garden dweller 48.ze.to noon 37 Usally described an impish 88.Red capita.40.Choose 41, Implement 2, Mr.Lancaster _ aver 11.Pair of horses 13.Destiny 15.Buddha 18.À bell tower 19.Niagi- clans 21.Stick mama (OjTI
