V. .`-Vckinson, who has i recently come to live in Barrie from Quebec, gave an interesting talk on 1 the St. Lawrence River at Kiwanis on Monday night. Mr. Atkinson spent the greater part of his life in Quebec and acted as chief engineer on many large public works and private enterprises. He is familiar with the province and the St. Lawr- ` ence River and its possibilities. He strongly advocates that Canada alone proceed with the deepening of the _ St. Lawrence, which would not only provide work for a great many men, ' but would in other ways heip to solve Canada s economic problem.

The river may be divided into four ` sections-the Great Lakes section to Ii-imrston; from there to Three Rivers; then the Estuary or tidal water section to Orleans, and the Grr.-zit Gulf section. The St. Lawr- ence is fed by many important nivers, the French River, the Spam -is/h. the Ottawa, the Richelieu and the Sag-'inaw. 'T`lnr-w- i: ran rivnr nf mu-l1 irnnnrf.
