Others in the car felt the impact and told Sauve to stop and ascer- tain if there had been any one in- jured, but he refused to stop. One of the occupants of the car re- ported the incident to Chief Sey- mour, and he turned the evidence over to the Provincial Police, and the prosecution followed. Sauve was also given one month for fail- ing to return to the scene of an accident and render assistance, this sentence to run concurrently with the first term imposed.

Her head was com- pletely severed from the body. The deceased, who was about 70 years of age, had moved to Gananoque only a few weeks ago on a visit to her sisters, Mrs, Martha Henry and Mrs. Henry Jackson.

Goodwill and efficiency overwhelmed the most reticent guests, as they heard Captain Lehr's address in clear English, He was formerly of the German air force, : 'Guests has Detailed Story of Bremen Fliers Tells Experiences-- Lives Lonely Life--Eighty Miles of Frozen Coast In- cluded in Territory She Covers, On her. lonely Labrador station Nurse Greta Mae Ferris, who sent the first detailed interview with the three intrepid trans-Atlantic fliers after their arrival on thé Bremen at Greenly Isle, finds life in the bleak Northland full of 'active service and not without its recompenses, And, through the long, dreary winter, there is a summer Santa Claus to look forward to--the sturdy little freighter Wop, which visits Blanc Sablon in June with supplies for the coming wmter and with gifts and "extras" from all over the world. "What, more than anything else, do you want the Wop to bring you in June?" asked one of the secre- taries in the New York office of the Grenfell Association in January last year, The question was put more in jest than in earnest, for the Wop regu- larly makes her trip with necessities and with such luxuries as can be sent to the cottage-hospital at For- teau and the stations at Red Bay and Flower's Cove. But Miss Ferris chose to take the request seriously and to prefer an unusual request, Coal in Great Demand "Bring us coal," wrote Miss Fer- ris, "heaps and heaps and heaps of coal." Coal, she went on to say, is the hardest thing to keep, at her station, of all supplies--even when a seemingly inexhaustible store of it is laid mn at the beginning of the season. Just why, she did not then explain, The letter, however, con- tinued thus: "Today is particularly stormy and our frail shell is far from warm. Mrs. Wedderburn and I are hugging the Raleigh stove..our faces are warm, but our backs are freezing; after a time we reverse our positions, and all's well that ends welll "I trust we shall have all the snow shoveled away before you get here next summer, but fate has defied us so far; we are completely submerged and most fear a deluge when the rain makes its appearance,' Equipment for Winter When the Wop was loaded at St. Anthony a few months later scveral extra tons of coal were added to the "heaps" which had previously been the annual Forteau allotment. In ad- dition to fuel almost everything else under the sun, it seemed, was packed into the little mission supply boat. "We have to take them everything from soap and tobacco to rubber boots," chuckled Alired A. Whitman, executive officer of the Grenfell As- sociation in New York. "Here, take a look at this list," and he handed over. a typed memorandum which read. One large bag of flake] scraps. Twenty pieces of sacking. Six dozen sheets of sand paper. Six rubber balls. Three tins of milk cocoa. One tin trumpet, One roll burlap, . One rug. Fourteen large colored pictures. {4 Jeni to Central) COAL "Jedd" The Best in America COKE "Solvay" We are Sole Agents GM.C.

There is an industrial school at that station, and the boys and girls--and some of their fathers and mothers, too-- are taught weaving, toy-making, and the making of hooked mats. They can do much of this work in the long seasen when they are frozen in with nothing to look forward to but the visits of the Red Bay staff worker, until it is time to fish again. or ; "On this trib, too, we had supplies for Flowers Cove, and dry goods, food, kitchen utensils, and so on, for Nurse Greta Ferris, in addition to her coal. You sec there is very little farming done in the short summers, although our workers are trying to teach the fisher folk something of agriculture and animal husbandry. Nurse in Labrador Has Big Job to Look After Miss Ferris, Who Sent First] There is 'alexander,' a tall crisp weed which is very good, used for fresh greens, although it cannot be put up, Berries of innumerable va- ricties' are plentiful, and these can be eaten fresh or canned to help withstand the long siege to come. Canned rabbit meat helps too, but for the bulk of their winter food the stations are dependent on what we send them. "After leaving St. chugged steadily north for three days. We were never out of sight of icebergs--beautiful when the sun strikes them--and one ob the big adventures of the trip was when one of these rumbled and cracked and broke dnto picces a short distance ahead of us, "First we made Red Bay, and there Minnie Pike welcomed us with beaming smiles and sumptuous 'mug-up." What's that? Why a mug- up? * * * I suppose you might call it the symbol of Northern hospital ity. When you come to any kind of a settlement, even if it is just a hum- ble. fisherman's shack, the family immediately 'biles' the kettle and makes a bit of tea--and this, with whatever there in the house in the way of bread or fish, is a muge up! "Minnie Pike looked pretty good that day, and after we had lunched she showed us around the school with great pride. She is a native product, trained at St. Anthony's several years ago and put ip charge of the resident pupils at the bay and the traveling workers who have their headquarters there, "At evening we were back on the Wop, and after a stop next morning at Flower's Cove we reached For- tcau on the following afternoon. Nurse Ferris gave us a royal recep- tion, She ahd her staff--including Nurse Alice Wedderburn and two station 'wops'--had roaring fires in the fireplaces and they scemed over- joyed to see us and our boatful of comfort. She's an unusually Ene per- son, is Mis Ferris; pure Canadian stock, with a wiry small body, fair hair and blue eyes which are al- ways sparkling with fun, he Reason for the Coal "Well she said after the prelim- inary greetings were over, 'did you bring me that coal?' "When we assured her that there were more than fifty tons of it in the hold, waiting to be brought ashore, she laughed heartily. *"'Fine, she said. 'That ought to get us througl). You sce our immedi- ate household here can manage on about thirty tons; but all Winter long there are the visiting patients, and the visiting well -folks, and coal to them is just so much solid gold, In fact they'd rather have it than gold, because it makes more heat Anthony we 15 | when heat is at a premium. We try to be selfish, and hoard every lump of it; but they look so wistful. Here it nught be explained that "wops," to Grenfell workers at least, are not Italians. They are college boys who, every summer, volunteer to go north with the supply be and cither remain at some p> ..ular station during the three months of vacation time o= .avel with the steamers on th .c rounds, Sometimes they are young medical students looking forward to careers of useful- ness outside the regular city or small town practice. Oftener they are just boys who go for the trip, glad to] pay their own gxpenses and work hard for the fun they get outgof it. Summertime Volunteers Frequently, however, a trip under- taken without serious intent beyond the summer's experience results in a new recruit for the mission work. Only about twenty wops a year' can be taken, as a general thing, but this summer there will be nearer thirty- five, for at St. Anthony there is 'a ship railway to be built and a dozen of the boys will be found, from June ui ® September, chopping logs, car- rying water and mixing concrete to complete the track up which the smaller craft may be pulled for the winter. Four boys were left at Forteau trying to figure out a way to get those fifty tons of coal out of the hold of the boat and into Nurse Fer- ris's neat sheds adjoining her cot- tage. With more mian power the problem would have been compara- tively simple, but it was in the height of the fishing scason and the men could not leave - their traps, There was nothing but a small un- stable wharf and the boat could not get within several hundred yards of that. Finally the wops located a lit- tle scow, to. which they lowered the coal from the deck in large baskets for ferrying to the wharf. Here a half dozen wildly 'excited children took over the task by transferring the lumps to their smaller baskets and home-made wheelbarrows, which they dragged or pushed up the hill to the cottage. It took three days to get the fifty tons stowed away, Hard work--but fun! Nurse Ferris at Home "The evenings were something to remember," said Mr. Whitman, "We would all sit around the fire and sing and tell stories. One wop had brought along his mandolin, and how he and the other boys could harmonize! But Miss Ferris could beat them all at story telling. We laughed till the tears rolled down our cheeks at her accounts of some of her adventures. She is a re- markable wéman, hard as tempered steel, ready for the sternest reality of gigantic effort when the situation calls for it, And bubbling with a sense of humor which is always finding stimulus in life in the North, "There was much in the news. papers when Miss Ferris trekked to the Bremen fliers last month, The world doesn't realize that such a trip was an easy one in comparison with many which she makes every winter. She is up there in charge of nearly cighty miles of coast, su- pervising the medical work--in the summer with the assistance of the visiting doctors, but in the winter doing for herself everything that gets done, or carrying her patients by boat to the nearest hospital, miles awa at Battle Harbar, when serious operations arc unavoidablz, She fs ¢n EVERY!
