The people of Ottawa and tile parliament and government d! Canada gave the Trumans a re- ception npproaching in warmth and show, that given the King and Queen In 19.39. The president sail! he never had n better time and appeared to mean it.

Earlier Canada's governorl- general. Viscount Alexander and Itady Alexander had been guest at the White House. Their visiE caused conslderlble local Interes and they were well entertained.

Prime Minister Mackenzie Klné also visited pring and was

the president las g-glldst at the‘

government hospitality centre. Blair House. As in the case ot all his

previous visits there was no show or ceremony and tow outside oﬂficlal circles knew he was them. That. however. is apparently how the prime minister wants it to he.

by action of the war-born ofllce of defence transportation putting an embargo on coal shipments to the Canadian National Railway lines.

Lone Bandit Raids Train

CHICAGO, Dec l0 - A gunman single - handedly robbed the passengers in two cars of a New York Central assdnﬂer train of jewelry and an undeterirned amount of cash between s suburban station and the downtown terminal Saturday night.

Judges Robbed -

Judge Roger Kiley o! the Illinois

appellant court, one of several‘ Judges and lawyers among the vie- tlms, estimated the cash loot at $360. l-te said several watches and rings were taken from passengers in the rear car. l-l. E. Brice, 55. a porter, said the robber boarded the train when it stopped at the Englevwood station and that. he carried n paper bag into which he forced about 10 Das- sentters in the rear car to drop their wallets. watches and rings.

Jumps 0f! Train

The gtlnm-ln then moved forward to the dining car where he robbed Douglas Tate, head waiter. of $196.20. He jumped from the train as it slacltened speed approaching the terminal.

The robber was described as

about, 30 years old. Among his other victims were Judges Joseph Burke and John C. Lowe. also of the ll- ltnolsjpnellant court, Alex J. Reta. former Illinois Congressman and now assistant Chicago corporation counsellor. and Benjamin Palmer. law professor at the University of Minnesota. Judge Kiley told the judges and lawyers had boarded the trrlln at South Bend, Ind.. where they st- tenderl a meeting o1 the National Law Institute.

It was built by United lllmpire Loyalist: in 17074 alter the? sought zoluge in Upper Canada rom the American Revolution, and it serv- ed the growtng community until 1880. At that: time it was aband- oned to use as a horse barn and storage place for barley en route to Oswego breweries and was ra-f consecrated as a, church only in 1911. ‘ Inst Summer the little building. which seats about 250. was the centre of an eastern Ontario pil- grlntage which the board o! trust- ees plans as an annual event. Rev. Whattam of Toronto. lee- cretary-trcasurcr of the board of trustees and grandson of one of the church's builders described the church as “just the same as when it was built. ' "It's never been painted but some years ago the old rla-phoards were removed. new ones put on and the old ones replaced on top to preserve the original appearance while strengthening the fabric." Rev. Dr. .'>sse l-l. Arnup. fortn- or moderator ol‘ the United Church qf- Canada and principal speaker at the pilgrimage service, said that the shrine fund stood at more than

.000.

"The proposal is t. build a cot- tage on the large c rch grounds nnd have n euperannuttted minis- ter live there to show people around." he said.

Near MacDonald Home

Over the fence on the west side of the churchyard is a grass-cov- ered hole in the ground which was once the cellar of Blr John A. MacDonald's boyhood home. The Hay Bay pilgrims "visited the cairn of cemented ﬂeldstone which com- ntemorates the connection with Canada's first prime minister. '

It is unlikely little John A. ever attended the famous church be- nlde his home. He was only 10 when hle family moved five mile: loutb- ' west to the Stone Mills o! Glen- ora and besides he was a Presby- terian.
