Islanders I Have Met

P! . ‘Islander Abroad’

‘m. ‘muraday evening u last week. I bade farewell to Winni-

, peg for the month ol May, for a

visit to Toronto. where I am the guest of lolls from Invernosa. Scot- land.

when I got on flee train at the‘ CPR. Station, I found the porter busily engaged in making up the beds, so I stood in the entry‘ oi the carriage, looking out the win- dow, until I could see daylight no longer. As I gazed over the vast stretch ol llat prairie land I ssw flooded acres. and little or no signs of spring apart from some har- bingers oi’ the season flying about.

Upon retiring, I did not see who would be my companions lor the journey, as they had retired before I came back into the carriage. However the following morning I learned. and behold, there was s. stoutlsh body in middle lile. and a. young son. which proved a care indeed. The mother had a table set up—what for, I haven't yet learned-and it was there for the day. The laddie, who was train sick most of the journey. kept kicking me under the table, and the moth- er piaced all her cigarette ashes on my seat and crowned it ail. by spilling a bottle of gingerale over everything.

I tried to enter into conversation with the lady and sll I could get in reply was, “I think Canada should join the States," or “Com- munism is terrible."

000

Across the aisle from us. sat two well travelled ladies. one lrom Scotland formerly. the other, s. newcomer lrom England. The Scot- tish lady travelled much in the States and throughout Canada. and many stories o1 interest she relat- ed. The other lady. the newcomer. came nut from England last year. to carry an her profession oi nurs- ing in America, but being unsatis- lied with the American way o! lire with her lore-flushing ol pro- paganda. is duo to return to Eng- land in July.

Down the aisle lrom us. sat a little girl, with her mother. who had ior her enjoyment a box ol trinkets ol various kinds. The girl, about every live minutes. had the misfortune o! upsetting this box. sending marbles, etc. over the floor. Every time the box leli, the passengers would say. "There it goes again.“

I O I

All day Friday it snowed, and through White River and ‘Cha- pleau. the trees were covered branches hanging with the Christ- mas appearances. ‘The trip by Lake superior, though the weather was unpleasant. was quite the thing. scenic and beautiful. The different camps along the shores of the Lake were busy — much wood—logs -—was in evidence (or the Pulprand Paper Mills. One new camp W85 opened a couple of years ago and it is now well built up-on the shores ol the Lake - with beautiful and well built homes constructed in a. well planned lown like appearance. This place is called Marathon.

O O l

On Saturday morning, I arrived in Toronto. greeted by a rain storm. This seems to be Torontos way of greeting me, lor every time I arrive in this beautiful city o! Upper Canada, the clouds drop down their tears.

In the afternoon. I wrote a let- ter to the lolk in Winnliiiu. mailed it and went for a short walk. vis- iting the usual most frequented places --"Woolworth's and Kres- ge‘s."

O I O

0n Monday. I went for a walk on Yonge St. to the city limit-s. two and a hall miles distant, re- tracted my steps and went south on the same street. to Baron's store on College. Bay and Yonge Sts. The whole Journey covered. on loot was over eight miles.

Enroule south. I saw on Mont- gomery and Yonge Sta. comm’, on ths'grounds ol a sub-postal sta- tion, a monument. On it. I read, "Site of Montgomery's Tavern.

“Original headquarters of Wil- liam Lyon MacKenzle, leader in the Upper Canada rebellion. scene of brici skirmish on 7th. Dec., 1837 resulting in deleat of insurgents by Loyal Militia commanded by Lleut Col. Ja-mcs FltzGlbbon.

Further along on Yange 9t. I saw the Alexander Muir Memorial gardens, and the Mt. Pleasant cemetery. This cemetery is one and a halt miles long, intersected by Mt. Pleasant public highway. Jain- ed by a tunnel driveway underneath the highway. The cemetery is eas- ily ono quarter mile wide, and has in it something oi’ the nature ol a ravine. The driveways are paved and the cemetery is most. beautifully cared for. containing trees, flowering shrubs and beds of flowers. Many men llnd lull time employment there; and when I walked through part ol the grounds, I saw men working, mowing grass. cleaning monuments. seeing to flowers, etc. Alongside the cemetery is a funeral parlour. a florist shop. and a tombstone dealer.
