FRENCH FIRST TO smu: IN WEST` Prof. Sissons'Pays Tribute to Canadians of Foreign Extraction An interesting talk on Peculi- ar Peoples I Have "Met in the West was delivered by Prof. C. B. `Sissons, B.A., LL.D., of Victor-` ia College, Toronto, before the Women's Canadian Club in the Library Hall on Saturday after- noon last. At the outset speaker made reference to the fact that he had been born in Vespra Town- ship, near Barrie, had received the greater part of his education `here! and had, in fact, attended school; with the president of the club, Mrs. Quinlan who, he laughingly remarked, had always been able to win scholastic honors when he had failed to do so. .1. .(1-.....I.'..o.- `D-nun: i Wltll tne uuuuua. _ _ In 1870 the Mennonites settled in southern Manitoba. He describ- ed them as a. peculiar religious sect, but nevertheless hard work- ing and in a sense progressive. '1`hesepeople, he pointed out, were made all kinds of promises by the Canadian Government which were not by any means lived up to. Our government had given these people land with the right to have their own schools and teach their own language (German). .They are a plain and simple people, pos- sibly the severest religious sect in the world. They do not believe in} war, any kind of stylish dress or articial ornamentation, while their form of education is purely elementary. Their mode of living lie the pure, simple. life.

A colony of them had 10-` cated some thirty miles south of - Winnipeg. They proved them- selves to be good farmers and were well disciplined. Similar col- .onies had since sprung up in Sas-` 'katchewan and Alberta, and today} were quite an inuence in the life` of Western "Canada. The ch,` ,speaker said, freely inter-m I with the Indians and as a res t today there is quite .-a population of half-breeds.

Liv- ingston s forefathers came from` ,Scotland and naturally it follows `that he is a Presbyterian, a mem- `ber of `St. Andrew s. Fraternally he is a Mason and also a member of the Kiwanis -Club. Only recently he was elected treasurer of the `newly-formed Barrie Automotive `Association, which embraces all local automobile dealers, and pre- haps he is most` at home in this` role, for he is never so happy as `when trying to sell a car, along with his elder `brothers, Frank and Bill, with whom he is associat- ed. All will agree that Alderman `Livingston is possessed of a sales- l.man s chief asset-a pleasing per- `sonality-and this, too, goes a `long way in politics, into which he `has just made his debut. Selling` I ` autos and politics offer plenty of "scope for an active, ambitious `young man.
