Turn- 'ing east at this point, which in `earlier days was no mean village, ,but which today has lost much of `its 0ld-time life and `activity, the road led on through the Scotch township of Oro, past the villages of Edgar and'Rughy, on to the busy, bustling, business town of Orillia, where the visitors` `were again cordially welcomed by the .members of the Water & Light Commission. ' ` - ~ ' 1.-.`! A.-...v... \J|JIlI1J1lA.7Dl\.I1Lu Orillia recently had some 0 trouble in c0nnection,wit`h_ itst water `supply which is taken by c gravitation from Lake Couchich- (1 ing, a short distance above thell Narrows at which in the days ofiiz Champlain the- Indians spread their__we-irs to catch. sh and `through which pass the waters of Lake Simcoe on their way to the S_evern River and on to the Geor- gian Bay. To overcome this they installed at at large expense; a filtration plant, and in addition a chlorination equipment that now gives the town an ample quantity of pure water to meet all require- ments. For lighting and power they` bring their electric juice from Ragged Rapids where the municipality has on its own in- itiative develop_erl a power in- volving a large outlay of capital As, elsewhere, the demand for this power has wonderfully increased, so much so that the Commission are at the present obliged to pur- chase several thousand kilowatts from the Severn system with which Collingwood is linked up. This, however. will he released in a few months when the new de- velopment at Swift Rapids in which Orillia is interested to the extent of an expenditure of one hundred thousand dollars-will he completed. . Not only this, but this plant will add several hun- dred horse-power to the Severn L system and in turn permit the `other municipalities to meet, in [a measure at least, the call for V additional service. With Orillia _ the whole business was a venture . which at times in the earlier days, _ before the education of the pre- . sent time had -attainedthe point I now reached, taxed the .) the uttermost. .Difficu1ties had .) to be overcome, `but even these. . failed to deter the people, of the ; east Simcoe town who persisted ; intheir efforts with theresult . that they ultimately won out, and today they have the satisfaction of knowing that. they have gottenl over thehill and are now assur- ed of success. By their experi- ences others are now proting, but because of this there is no regret on-the` part of the 0rill_ _ ians`. They appear to glory in their leadership and none would deprive them of anything in the form of credit. ' 1'1! town to. . While in Orillia it was `gratify- ing to the visitors to learn that all the several large industries were operating to capacity and that the town was generally prosperous. The stores have the appearance of being live business spots, the activity of the mer- chants being reflected through the columns, "of the three local papers, in all of which they car- ryT,large and well written an.- nouncements week after week. With them the use of printer s ink is. a business getter,` Iiotvan expense._ - \r--r -_-.. - At Waubaushene, the trip on land terminated for the time, the party transferring itself to a ne gasoline launch which had -been arranged for by the Orillia friends. It wasnow a matter of `a sail of over forty miles, twenty ` miles up the Severn River and re- turn, through beautiful natural scenery, here and there dotted with asummer cottage and at three different points showing by immense works the efforts of man to make _use of the great. body" of owing waters. -cvv `Across from_ 'W.aubaushene, 1 four miles, is the hamlet of Port 4 Severn, which a score or more: years ago was the location of a L large lumber industry, but which is now merely a place for lock- ` ing through into Gloucester Pool, which in .time--`-some day--it is expected-will be the western `ter- minus of_ t-he celebrated Trent Valley `Canal which has been un- der construction since 1838 and is yet far from being finished. At Port Severn the river.has been checked by a large` cement dam, through `which is one lock for the passing of launches and other small craft, this with the back" wall raising the water several ' feet several miles upthe stream, and forming a storage basin that . will he of. `great use `in the days . of the 'canal--after the war and . then. some. .

It was this plant that originated through the, Simcoe Railway & Power Go., -the` plans of which were but partiallyl developed when the Ontario Hy-., d1'0' Commission purchased the` plant and put it into the Hydro zone. - * | Originally the Big Chute con- s_isted of three streams, the Lost, Channel, Six-Mile Chute and Big! Chute, but all are now forced in- t.o the steel flume which leads to the "turbines located in the ne cement power house situated just below the cement dam. The de- velopment at this point is now 2,400 horse power, but plans are now prepared and preparations are being made to increase this to 93,600 horsepower, this, how- ever, depending in a measure on the labor situation. From the Big Chute the entire party continued another nine miles up the river to the Swift Rapids`, where. the development exceeds that at the Big Chute and also that at the Ragged Rapids a couple of miles yet further up the-`stream. -The development at this point is _a joint affair, the Dominion Government which is building the dam and the lock of the Trent Valley Canal and the town of Orillia which is install- ing the machinery working to- gether,` the expenditure involved amounting t_o three_quarters of a million dollars, of which Ori.llia .is responsible for one hundred. . thousand dollars.

Knowing something of the merits of the new power it is ' that ' therefore. not surprising when, a few years ago, the Ont- ario Hydro Commission entered this district and `offered to ex- ' Shncoe, -Collingwood at once becameiin- tend its operations to terested and at the rst, oppor- tunity oilered to co-operate and assist in the building up of .a system that would be bigger and better than that `which had ser-` ved the town for a score of years The decision was at- most unanimous and in accord- ance with the mandate of the people the proffered contract was accepted by the municipality. Other towns also fell into line and the `Provincial Commission Big at took over the plant. at the Chute on the Severn River which there had been established a or partially established an `elec- trical plant by a -group of Mir]- `land men. At once this `power was further developed and inn- proved and immediately there was ,an increased demand for energy; indeed, so great has this proved tobe that at the present not only this development, but that at Eugenia Falls, which was lirtkedin a few monthsago, is overtaxed, the demand exceeding by many kilowatts.
