' Ali' Mail Service
Lest season we enjoyed the bene-
iilts of Air Mail to the province, the ionly criticism ousted to thu ser- vice. was the delay oi' several weeks bet/ween the date the. late ‘1\ain se'rvice`.was cancelled and the _date the air service was established. !We trust that in the event of the second train being cancelled this season, that the air mail will be re-established on the same date.
In conclusion ladies and gentle-
men permit me once more tc ex- press my great pleasure at meet- ting so many of the _ropresentatives._ men and women of the province. and who are iodsy so deeply inter- ested in its present and future wel-
resented here allow me to express io you my sincere congratulations _and to commend you on your cour- age; determination and ability for the success that has marked your en’orts during such a trying period. This ability and the thought that l should like to express is very clearly portrayed in the following poem that I found on my desk a few dayf B80.
