At its _inception t wasvery 1 I dubiously regar d, but today people !` 1 are not incredu ous when optimists lppredict that the road will some day tpay the national debt. A large fac- I.` ` tor in the C.N.R. success was the! courtesy of employees in meeting` the L: public. After referring briefly to!` conditions in` ,Col1ingwood, Dr. Ar-11 thur bespoke the co-operation of the ;` 'C.N.R. in the town s_ development. ' I `IT A 13......

It was not fair to let these take the cream of the traffic at the season of the year when operating costs are light- -,l ler, while the railways are compelled. [to give a twelve-month service and` also to meet heavy overhead charges. When feed is short a farmer can cut |down his rations to stock-a bit, but, [it was difficult for railways topdo this ' .where servzes have to be maintain-i ed. .The C.N.R..management showed ' great ability"~'by increasing its returns I inthe face of such opposition and its I prosperity was a matter of gratica- 1 tion to the people of Canada.
