Hudson's Bay Once again on bis annual explo4htion of Ca- nadian hîstorical sites, Dr. Will- lams bas been so impressed With his present trip that be has en- closed with bis letter the following essay on Canada's Receding Fron- tier. It is boped that his new series 6f technicolor pictures o! the.Arctic frontier wiil be shown -to his Durham County friends on his return. Canada bas only one remain- ing frontier-northward. Solitude and the deep Artie bold much in common. My first adventure ev- en to North Bay was a miscon- ception for I found that on the previous day it bad been pro- claimed a city wlth appointments that very much shaded my Old Ontario. In '36, Kirkland Lake furtber aston'lshed me and in '40, Coch- rane, The Kap, Hearst and North- eru Ontario's tidal waves over James Bay widened my hrizon's pride but this today isn't even the fringe o! the Arctic. Canada's Atlantic to Paci!ic 3000 miles tied by steel, leaves as much more for wings to hover over in Arctic solitude. As I write' I sense this solitude just as one can feel cavernous bleekness. I have been a question Îynamo in Western Canada since I le! t Toronto the middle o! June but here on the C.N.R. rails bound for Churchill, solitude answers no questions. I arn mocked by the train rumbling on and on, the locomotive had long since tired of whistling and solitude consum- ed the echoes. I wonder how short-sighted wil have been my conception of this new outlet o! Canadian transpor- tation-which faith concedes will yet be the great ocean port o!

How few the natives wiil be, their racial distinctions, bow crude their way of lite for I imagine in the extremity of theli crude living they hang their wash- ing out on the 5Mth Une of lati- tude. .When we reach mile 1500 frour Winnipeg the northern end of steel venture, the vista wiil sud- 'denly open and out of continuing days of this cloistered solitude we wiil be suddenly thrust into a n,-orthern isolated terminal of oc- ean port activity with great ships loading grain for Europe-wheal such as I saw on the prairies standing in solid golden phalanx head to head as far as the eye would see-Canada's west and north, the national miracle of a century of progress now feeding a starving world. I wiil see the Union Jack, the new Canadian citizenship, the Mounties, and a new military dis- play that has been screened from publicity. I understand we are to be entertained by some sort of Bail at the Churchill terminal and I may find myself attempting some sort of weird dance with my arm part way around the waist of some abundant Eskimo lady. But you say what of that cam- era ail this while? l'il take it along as I cross the estuary of the Churchill River to, where since early Hudson's Bay Co. days re- mains the 30 ft. walls of solid masonary of Fort Prince of Wales, atop which glaring cannon looked out upon the expanse of Hudson Bay waters, ever fearful of French invasion, for part of European struggle between England and France for the possession of a con- tinent as well as fur trade rivalry was fought on these shores in the depth of the Arctic before the be- ginning of the 18th century. Here Lord Selkirk's colony landed for an overland Arctic trek to the Red River Settlement with a misunderstanding sequel of the Riel Rebellion and adding to the romance o! the Red River carts. In ail, during our cruise, my camera has looked on some 2000 technicolor scenes of a varied cross-section of western Canada from the expanse of prairie, sky- line of the majestic Rockies, great harvest prospects and hailed out areas, pioneer glimps-es, some tracks of the old Hudson Bay trail Winnipeg to Edmonton, the ro-. mance of Lower Fort Garry, his- torical cairns, canyons and mem- orable rivers, church and racial life, great irrigation projects in the making, National Parks, with wild life, the highways, wheat- fields, cowboys, stampedoes, the cities and the plains, while dear- est of ail, the lonely settler's cab- in on the treeless horizon, the Indian and the tourist; so many of our American friends paying us an appreciated visit-all of which not pen nor oratory could depiet but ail of which the seeing eye of the tecbnicolor camera epitomizes in revealing reality - all of this added to some 4000 Dictures of 1historical Eastern Canada turns the pages o! history, strengthens our faith in nationbood, brings the Lpast to rub shoulders with the present, to assure us in prospect that not even the beadlands o! LCanada's possibilities have been ploughed; that the so-called bar- rens of Arctic solitude which are the geological rub-down o! great- er Rockies than we see today on the Pacific slope, are in reality but the lid, the cover, o! Canada's greater treasure chest; that soli- tude and faith will reveal on one o! this country's to-morrows known as Destiny-Let us have faith! "Men buy and seil by faith, the forges humn, The drays are laden, countless mill wheels turn, Great ships are chartered., trains run to and fro; A day-a single day-if faith were dead No fields were sown, no oven fir- ed for bread, Faith is the handman in a toiler's guise, O! aIl the world o! workers." "A Little Child Shali Lead Them"l A Statesman subscriber in Tor- onto who came back to the Home- land of Durham recently to at- tend a family reunion picnic, one o! those delightful and typically rural social events, sends us an incident which she says "was one o! the highlights o! my holiday."1 Before telling her story she makes these comments: You see scien- tists are telling us these days it is either co-operation or be blown to pieces. To me the newspapers are heading straight for the latter without really meaning to. Hem story follows: It was the afternoon o! the tam- ily picnic at Hampton Park where some 200 folk o! ages ranging !rom e ghty years down to twa menths weme assembled. After the usual chit-chat with relatives and a delicious supper tucked away, many o! us sat around to watch the varjous races and the fmolic o! the smaller fry. Tommy, flot quite three years, was seated on a bench by himself evidently enjoying a espite from previous romping. Billy, two years, came up to him; with both hands he began clawing at bis face. Watching, we expected Tommy to assert bis rights and claw or kick in return, but not so. He took It ail without even a raise of bis hand. Eventually be got up on the seat, turned bis back on the slappem, leaned bis bead on the back o! the bench theme to continue bis esting. The back did flot appeal to Bul- ly, so scatching immediately ceas- ed much to the satisfaction o! those who bad !eared there migbt have been a bit o! a scrap. How like childmen our world has become. We seem to desire to get at the othe.r fellow without knowing just wby. Could the na- tions not learn Tommy's plan, thus making another war impos- sible? Ramona Ruth.

Cbippewas fmom one acre, bas named bis place "Pine Ridge Farm," designated by a new sign near bis gate wbich was uncovemed in the presence o! 100 neigbbors and other friends on August 19. The sign was painted in Mill- brook, and combines in a central panoramic view the two main features o! the farm, a row o! pine trees at one side of a field o! potatoes. It is a farm inden- tification suspended from a supporting frame o! iron pipe. Tuesday was Mr. Blakely's birtbday, and be recalled that at the Crop Improvement Associa- tion convention last winter some one suggested that he should name bis farm. The idea deve- loped then to 'christen' the place on the August birth anniversary. Speakers were Ed Summers o! Bowmanvîlle, Durham agricul- tural representative, and Frank C.

Would you prize the privilege of joinlng in worship there at a service with others of comnion interest in this historic building? Particularly would you like to hear Very Rev. Jesse H. Arnup, D.D., Ex-Moderator of the United Church of Cailada preach? Such an event bas been planned under the.auspices of the Truste Board o! Hay Bay United Church (formerly Methodist) and by di- rection o! the Bay o! Quinte Con- ference for Sunday, August 31, at three o'clock in the afternoon. This church of such unique his- torie interest was erected in 1792. It has been kept in good state o! repair under the trust'ceship of a Board o! outstanding Church Leaders. It is located on the south shore o! Hay Bay about four miles from the village of Adolphustown and can be reached from the south by crossing the Glenora ferry and travelling from Adolpliustown to the shore of Hay Bay. From the north it can be reacned proceed- ing southward frorn Napanee on the paved bighway. The Cqmmittee in charge con- sider themselves very fortunate in being able to secure the ser- vice o! the Ex-Moderator, Dr. Arnup, for this occasion. 1 1 district potato inspector, W. A. Davidson, Loui Woods of Bow- manville and others. Ernest Cavano, Reeve of Man- vers, presented Mr. Blakely wlth a tobacco set-pipe, pouch and jar !rom the Durham 500 Bushel Club. A heavy ramn passed over the district between 7 and 8 o'clock, but cleared off in time for the late-arriving farmers of the district. Group of BritIshers Delayed by Fog Fed by Red Cross The f ifth group of Britishers to come to Canada under the pro- vincial government's air Migration Scbeme arrived at the Red Cross Reception Centre on Jarvis St., at noon on Thursday, August l4th. It was the end of a delayed and fogbound journey for them and of a faith!ul vigil on the part of the Red Cross volunteers who bad remained on caîl since Ttaesday. The plane, originally due on Tuesday, August 12th, was next reported due Wednesday at 2 a.m. The Red Cross workers re- mained on caîl ready to report for duty any time on either nigbt whatever the hour of arrival. The plane was re-route4 for Toronto from Shannon Airport, (Eire) because of fog conditions and delayed at Prestwick, Scot- land, because of a short circuit in the generator. This group of 40 were served their first Canadian meal by Red Cross workers. They were given ration books ard in«For""-'! vided by the Provincial Govern- ment and assisted in send1ni <, les and wires to friends and re- latives. Aboard werç 40 people; includ- ing 33 men, seven married couples and one single girl, Joyce Bow- man. Brenda Summer and Wil- liam Carroll were married in England immediately before com- ing aboard. Two of the wives, Mrs. Ernest B. D. Cooke wbo will live in Toronto and Mrs. Harry E. Hollywood bound for Gaît, are Canadian girls. Carroll and Cooke were Englishmen wbo trained with the RAF here during the war. Said Mrs. Cooke "We were married at Moncton, N.B., and yesterday we spent our !ourth wedding aniversary in the plane over Iceland." The immigrants though somewhat fatigued, al declared the journey bad been fun and spoke warmly of the kindness shown them by Red Cross on their arrivai. ,TRUPMAY, ATYGUST 28th, 104-t SEPTEMBER 2id 1947 We Are Ready with a Complote stock of TEXT BOOKS FOR HIGH AND PUBLIC SOHOOLS - SORIBELERS, NOTEBOOKB SOHOOL BAGO, PENS, PENCILS, INE9 RULERS, ETC.
