"He spoke of the natural beauty of the North and of the pleasant and hospitable people that were met here, and there is no doubt that he will reâ€" turn feeling that he was well used and will be a booster for Northern Ontario in his home city, even if that is the place from which most of the comâ€" plaints have come." According to mining men who have just returned from the property a new ore discovery was mads on the Chiâ€" bougamau Prospectors property north "In view of recent complaints made by Amrican tourists of the treatment they receive when visiting Canada, it was interesting to get the viewpoint of a man whose business it was to learn all phases of any section of the world through which he passes. Mr. Richâ€" ards stated emphatically, that there was nothing to complain of so far as his personal experiences went. He found the conditions very much the same as in his own country, got along well with all the people with whom he came in contact and gave it as his opinion that a few disagreeable travelâ€" lers from either side of the boundary line could do a great deal of harm to the otherwise pleasant relations which exist between the two countries. Trafâ€" fic regulations did not differ very much from those prevailing in the U.S., this visitor said. There was nothing parâ€" ticularly irksome to him in having to observe the rules on either side of the f Csdar bay in the Chibougamau disâ€" rict of Quebec. The report states the rein has a minimum width of 20 feet, 1as been stripped for several hundred cr less common, it is refreshning read the following from the last issue cf The Haileyburian:â€" "On a tour of the North Country gathering information of the mining industry and conditions in general, a Mr. Richards, of the Detroit Free Press, was a Haileybury visitor on Friâ€" day morning last. He conducts a speâ€" cial feature page in the Sunday ediâ€" tion of his paper and in the interests of this travels over various parts of the world, but this was his first trip into Northern Ontario, although he has covered considerable ground in the province of Quebec. "Mr. Richards stated that he found the travelling over the Ferguson highâ€" way very fair, had no trouble at all and was thoroughly enjoying the trip. It was his intention to go on from here to Kirkland Lake in order to absorb little of the gold mining atmosphere. i Recently there has been considerable discussion in the daily papers in reâ€" gard to the usage given United States tourists in Ontario. There has also been much said about the condition of the Ferguson highway. As a matter of fact the Ferguson highway in spots was in very bad condition early this year, but at the present time the roads in the North are generally agreed by those who use them to be very good indeed. The Ferguson highway is not paved, but for a gravel road it will take as high standing as similar type of road elsewhere. It is a pity that after the weather and some work by the desariment put the bad pieces of road .nto gsod shape that there should be cortinued complaint about the road when the road is not in condition to deserve complaint. It seems to The Advance that some of the southern newspapers are either months behind the times in their complaints about the condition of the road or months ahead, because there may be difficulty again next year or with steady wet weather. The remedies applied of gravelling and proper ditching have put the bad strips of road in good conâ€" dition and motorists who use the highâ€" way appear now to be agreed that the road is good. Perhaps dry weather alone would have put the road in shape, but in any case there is no reason for "knocking" the road in the meantime as some southern newsâ€" papers and people are doing. However, it may be that this "knocking" will do some good in the way of more attenâ€" tion to the condition of the road. In the meantime, however, it is unfair and has the effect of unnecessarily frightening away tourists. Probably the talk that tourists are not well usâ€" ed in Canada also has some effect in keeping United States people from crossing the line in their cars. In view of both these "kicks," more or less common, it is refreshing to read the following from the last issue | DETROIT NEWSPAPERMAN FINDS ROADS ARf G00D Special Writer for Free Press Praises North Land and Canada in Genâ€" eral, THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO ‘, got aion h whom h ) it as hi able travel e boundar n â€" popiliarity.

She was anxious for her husband‘s safety, but, like the wife of a pionesr of the air, she was not letting herself think of her husband as lost.
