" Nowadays Kincardine Review-Reporter: The man who lives by the side of the road nowadayshas a housei full of dust. , ' V \ 5 j-:--- , iLast` Friday the Winnipeg `Free, , Press contained an interesting story . to the effect that a bona de offer had- . `been made by `a group of business, 1 men to complete the Hudson s, Bay . Railway. by private `enterprise upon ,' certain conditions. _The proposal` in- .|cludes also the construction of a rail- { way pier at Churchill where vessels drawing 35' feet. of water couldload and discharge cargo. While few East- ! ern people have any faith in the prac- ticability of the Hudson s Bay\route for general commercial tra ic,.there is a very large body of public opinion ` in Manitoba and Saskatchewan in fa- vor of completingthe Hudson s Bay Railway. Newspapermen were shown last week, in Winnipeg, moving pic- tures of the road and were given many gures by a -prominent engin- eer to prove that the railway should be carried through to tidewater and that the Hudson s Bay route .vou1d` provea great outlet` for the products of the West. Mayor Webb_Iof Winni- peg, in an address strongly advocat- ing the completion of the road, went so far as tosay that Hudson s Strait is open 365 days in the year---a state- ment he would have some difficulty substantiating. In the West, there ` seems toibe an impression that opin- I ion in the East is inuenced to a large } extent by the fear of loss of business ' through the diversion of traffic to i Hudson s Bay.- Such is not the case. 3 The people'east`of Manitoba would 2 have no obje"ctionto such a route be- ing open-ed if they wereconyinced of its feasibility. At present they can- - not see it as anything but a losing proposition and regard further ex- penditure upon it _as throwing good money -after bad. If satisfactory ar- rangements could be made to com- plete it as a private enterprise, the people of Eastern Canada would be (entirely satised to see it go through.

May yo ever-be jealous of be what you hope to be---an`g'els,of mercy, exemplars-of service and liv- ing exponents of the God-given vir- tue-charity. . If in your work you keep thes'e__,things in mind, you will have a career of happiness and use- fulness an@vill return glory to your Alma'Mater, the Royal Victoria Hos- pital, which now sends` you out, cle- clared Fatht `Brennan in conclusion. The Mayor's Congratulations Mayor Craig extended congratula- tions to the graduates and spoke on behalf of the hospital. The hos- pital is worthy of your kindest con- sideration. ` It is-a convenience to the town and surrounding country. He referred to the passing of the hospital by-law, saying it must have been gratifying to the management to know they had the `co-operation of the citizens. Like any business, the hospital has lean years and it gets behind because the overhead remains practically the same whether there be few or many patients, said Mayor Craig.

Father Brennan, who was the s evening's chief . speaker, com liment- ed the graduates on their c oice of profession ` and in the course of an eloquent address `dened the attrib- utes of a well trained nurse. _ , ' Hospital a- Necessity There was as time," said Father Brennan in his introductory remarks, - when a hospital was considered a , luxury or a useless and. extravagant ; `way of spending the eople s. taxes. The attendance here s ows that idea has been dissipated and that we now believe` a hospital .is most vital. and necessary in a community. The pro- gress and enlightenment of a town may largely be gauged by its hospital and the efficiency of the staff. Fa- ther Brennan declared the Royal Vic- toria Hospital to be a hospital un- surpassed for cleanliness, `courteous- ness, good management. and, above all, homelikeness. .From the training school of such an institution, taught by the medical men of the town.and `by the superintendent, these ve young ladies are now graduating, he continued. Since t ey have been` granted their diplomas, they are con- sidered capable and, being such, are well qualied for their life work. In -the-past three years they have been tried in the crucible of training and discipline, and now. possessed of pru- dence and good judgment, they leave the hospital and go forth to a greater wor , there to minister in `a great and inspiring _professio`n.

When in Win- nipeg last week the editor of The Ex- aminer talked. with newspapermen from various parts of thefour We_st- , ern provinces and all voiced a feel- ing of optimism. From those in Al- berta and Saskatchewan, particular- ly, ` most enthusiastic reports were heard. Several stated that crop pros- pects had not been so good at this period in ten years, splendid growth having resulted from -abundant rains and favorable growing _ weather. Somedamage was reported from cut worms and rust but ,this'~was not con- i sidered very s riousu With av`rag,e 1 weather from now on, these two _pro- . vinces have nothing to fear unless .~ V: be from hail. Prices, too,.promise ' 3'0 be good this year, judgingfrom the` gaelleral outlook for the world's wheat markets. Reports from Manitoba,al- so were favorable, though there had been slightly too much rain during the past two weeks. Business men, too, tell of improved conditions and] are hoping for a big crop at paying prices, which would put the West right on its feetyagain.

At a meeting held in Toronto last `Friday the arrangements were ye-affirmed and movement of coal is expected to start almost immediately. If Sir Henry can deliver Alberta coal in Ontario at a price that will make it a competitor with Pennsylvania an- thracite, he will be doing a .stroke of business that will help more to pop- ularize his road than almost anything"- alse he could do. This is a factor that Sir Henry should not overlook even if he has to haul the coal at cost.. ing a Roman arena in which aegreat crowd were watching those contend- ing and exhorng thenito ght a good ght, said the speaker.
