"Motives for Canadian manufactures are now urgently needed by the many industries that are obliged to use designs and trade-marks in producing manufactured articles.

Consequently, Canada relied on foreigners for them and the war having exhausted the energies of many of the European designers, the supply has been inadequate. New designs are constantly required and manufacturers have been compelled to turn to other sources for them. American designers as a result realize, more than ever before, the wealth of motives for designs to be found in North American museums among the prehistoric and historic collections of the handiwork of the peoples of various countries.
