The following summary of Dr. Mullallyb address, from the Mont- real Star, will be read with Inter- est by his many blends here:

“From Dr. Mullally came a plea to adult rlislunen in the city to in- culcate a wider knowledge of Irish history 1n the minds of the young. ‘W; should foster l. deslre in our young people to visit Ireland,’ he remarked, as he added reininia cences of his own visits to —the lmcl of his forefathers. He recalled that the school commis- sioners oi’ Montreal entertained the Idea at one time of unchanging teachers with Irish teachers. Tho plan fell through duo to tho in. ability of local men to speak Gaelic. ‘That avenue is closed for the time b81118.‘ he continued, ‘but there is nothing to swP You (Irish societies) from cndowlni! scholar- ships which would make possible the interchange of Irish and Irish- Canadlan students.’

“Poems of Canada's beloved poet, Dr. W. H.

building centering around Montreal and points to the south and east, including the first railway and adjacent lines. The Grand Trunk loallluy was, in turn. absorbed on January 3o, 1923, by the Canadian National Railways, which thereby inherited these pioneer lines. It is worthy of note that pars; of the original line o! the Champlain and St. Lawrence Railroad, the progen- itor of the Canadian National sys- tem, still exists as a right-oi-way, forming a tiny part of the 24,000 miles o.‘ line now used by the Can- adian National Railways.

From the acorn grows the oak, a mighty tree which epreads its bran- ches in all directions. From the puny efforts of Canada's first ven- ture in railroad building has grown a mighty transportation system, spreading its lines across. the Dom- inion to all important centres and DQYOIRlwlO vast cdonlzatlon areas. When the first railway was laid down in Canada in 1836 the vision of neither statesmen nor railway builders had envlwiged the linking of the two oceans.

The figures 1836-1936 are shnply data but what a. wealth of sig- uiflccnce they contain historically in the development of Canada in its many aspects. but especially in the advance of transportation fac- ilities, without which that develop- ment would have been impossibe
