The name MacMillan since the earliest pioneering days in this province has been synonomous with the vicinity of Brackley and many other parts of Prince Ed- ward Island. During Business and Professional Women’s Week which is being observed from October 5th to 11th it is interesting and inspiring to read the career of Miss Isabel MacMillan, president of the provincial organization of Business and Professional Wo- men’s Clubs of Alberta.
Miss MacMillan’s story courte— ously submitted upon request of the Charlottetown committee of the B. and P. Week makes for the best of biographical reading. It has all the exuberance of her na- tive Prince Edward Island and her province of Alberta—and that is quite a combination!
Now for Isabel MaoMillan's good story:
MILLER.
I was born in Millvale, Prince Edward Island. My father, Mur- dock MacLeod Mac-Millan’ opera- ted a mill in that community in conjunction with his farm, as did my grandfather, Robert Mac» Millan, before him. My parents later moved to Hunter River where they had a general store, and then on to Brackley Poin‘ Road farm. These moves were certainly not in the Island tradi- tion of staying “put” but there is an explanation.
From early manhood my ia~ ther had a burning desire to come west. When he sold the Mili~ vale place it was with the idea of moving his family west but my mother was a persuasive wo- man and she convinced him that the Mauc‘Millan destiny still lav
For instance, soup or a hot vegetable dish, a meat, cheese or peanut butter sandwich or two of enriched or whole grain bread, fresh stewed or canned fruit or a gelatin. or custard dessert, with a cookie, will round out a well- -balanced diet.

in P.E.I. with the result he pur- chased his brother John’s general store at Hunter River when this branch of the family migrated to Alberta.
‘ My mother won out again when the Hunter River property was put on the market and instead of turning westward. we settled down in a comfortable farm home on the Brackley Point Road.
Whether lMother finally realized the west was no longer either wild or woolly, or whether she was becoming aware that the Inv- ely farm community in which we lived oflfered very limited oppor- tunities for her family, I don‘5 know. But one cold March day during the first world war, the MacMillans entrained for Alber- ta, a move which precluded me trying my entrance exams to Prince of Wales College at the end of the term as planned. It has always been a matter of deep regretthat I didn‘t enjoy the experience of attending th at fa- mous school of learning.
After further schooling in Ed— monton. including a business course, I continued academic work at night school with the idea of some day going to University but the depression continued on and that dream went by the board. Besides I now had a chal- lenging job in most congenial sur- roundings.
One day as I was nearing the
completion of my business course a call cam." into the college for a stcnographcr who was a "good maker". Well, that was one thing we did learn to do in that lilllc clcl schoolhouse on Brackley Point Road and I got the nod:
It was in a printing plant. and in addition to my stenographir- duties I was to write heads for a weekly trade union publication. My P.E.I. background hadn‘t pre- pared me for this eventuality and I fully expected,lo get a little blue slip at the end of the week. “Good spellers" must have been in short supply or perhaps the editor, Elmer E. Roper, who hail- ed from Nova Scotia, took a len~ ient view of the inadequacies of a fellow Maritimer.
In any event I am still recei- vmg a weekly pay cheque from this same editor, who is now pre- sident of the prining firm, Com- mercial Printers Limited, one of the largest of its kind in the west. His son, G. Lyall Roper, is today the general manager. SHIPPING
Incidentally the Ropes name was well-known in Maritime sail- ing ship circles at the turn of the century. Mr. Elmer E. Roper re- calls being in Charlottetown on King Edward VLI’s Coronation Day with his father, Captain George Roper, who was loading a cargo of produce, probably Is- land “spuds” on “The Vivian” of Sydney.
Until recently I news-edited a monthly magazine. Nowadays high school yearbooks come un- der my supervision as well ‘as some other publications. One of the firm‘s subsidiaries is devoted to the production of forms and this also claims some of my attention. That’s what I like about the printing industry, there is always something new beckoning over the horizon. My sister, Sadie, also a B. and P. member, who started‘with the firm a. couple of years after I entered its employ, is new office manager.
B. AND P.
I am a former president of the Edmonton Business and Profes- sional Women’s Club and the Ed- monton Branch of the Canadian Women’s Press Club. I have been Publicity Chairman for The Ca-
business ,
nadian Federation of Business and Professional Women's Club: for
the past four years and was also,
in change of public relations for gross allcurlcd by some lull.) wo- men in Montreal two years ago. the International B. and P. Con-
Now provincial B. and P. pre- sident for Alberta. I am the wo— men's representative on the Prai- rie Regional Employment Com-
mittee of the U.I.C. and was a.
member of the Edmonton Hospiv tal Board for nine years. FROM SCOTLAND
On the paternal side of—lhe family, the first of the MacMil— lans to emigrate to P.E.I. was Lauchlin and his wife, Sarah MacP‘herson, They came from Lochaber in Argyll, Scotland in 1803 on the ship Polly and landed in Belfast.
I noticed this reference to Loch- ‘
aber. Scotland, the home of my paternal ancestors in the Colum- bia Encyclopedia:
“Lochaber—mountainous dis- trict, Inverness — shire. Scot- land lmy family records give Lochaber as in Argyl-l — its pro- bably on the border between the two counties) East of Lochs Le- taven and Linnhe. Glen, moor, mountain and water are celebra- ted in Allan Ramsay‘s “Lochaber No More", (As a song sometimes titled “Farewell to Lochaber”.). T0 COVEHEAD
In 1806 MacMillans moved to Oovehead and at the time we left the Island this» land was oc— cupied by a great grandson John MacMillan Lauchlin and his wife had five children, Donald, Mar- ion, Ewen, John and Catherine.
Donald married Margaret Mutrh of Lot 28. daughter of Major Alex Mutch who settled in P.E.I. in 1786. My grandfather. Robert. was one of the Donald MacMil- lan's nine children.
My mother was also a Mac- hlillan. whose father Alexander MacMillam came 10 the Island in the 1830‘s also from Argyll- shire. Scotland. At one time he operated stores at four different centres on the Island and was also engaged in ship—building with his brothens Angus and Archibald, he latter a sea captain who look the vessels to England and ef- fected their sale.
PORTFOLIO
From 1891 until 1900, my great uncle. Hon. Angus Ma-cMillan, held the portfolio of Commission- er of Public Lands in the admin- istration of that period. He was also president of the Bank of Summerside for many years pre- vious to its amalgamation with the Bank of New Brunswick.
Both my parents have passed on, my mother just three years ago.
My sister, Sadie. and I main- tain a home in Edmonton, and together with my sister, Alberta, and her husband, Fred Elke and their childire, have a. cottage at Gull Lake where we like to “get away from it all” weekends and holidays. My two brothers, West and Robert (the latter was a member of the world champion Superior Hockey team in the 30’s touring Europe with them) have an auto electric business.
My sister, Dorothy, Mrs. Cyril Toombs, still resides at Rustico.
"You mean to soy— iusi 3-u-dhy may send backache away!”
Sounds good!
Logical, too! You see the normal job of the kidneys is to remove excess wastes and acids ~30 often the cause of backache—from the system. Dodd’s Kidney Pills stimulate the
kidney; in this function and so my bring you that welcome relief from backache they have many others. Try just 3-a-day. You can depend on Dodd’s—in the blue box with the red band. 64
My Uncle Dan. the last of my mother’s family now retired from farming and living in Vermilion, Alberta. has recently been visi— ting at the Tooml)s home. is his first visit to his Island home after 55 years sojourn in the Mannville district of Alber- ta. He went TCA and in a post- card to us after his arrival n P.E.I. indicated he was very thril- led with this, his first plane trip.
If I have any hobby, it"s walk- in: “Nipper”, a lovely beagle who doesn’t give too good an ac- count of himself even though he did attend obedience classes with me as “handler.” I’d hate to tell you his score in the final tests as politely amused kennel folk watched my not too successful of- forts to make him behave like a good dog should.
