That one was at the Merchatis ca (010) struck last June 28 enforce demands for a 40-hour week and a wage increase of 20 cents an hour, Settlement of the strikes followed a pattern of 13 cents an hour in- crease plus off-shift bonuses and holidays with pay. Last night saw the end of the strike at the Gutta Percha Tire and Rubber Company plant, subject to approval by union membership next Thursday, and ratification by a Kitchener mass meeting of settle- ment terms for the Dominion Rub- ber textile section in that city. The wage increase at the Kitchener plant is retroactive to May 19, At its height the rubber strike had workers idle in Toronto, Kit- chener, Hamilton, Bowmanville, New Toronto and Oakville, Capital Closeups By GEORGE KITCHEN Canadian Press Staff Writer Ottawa, Oct.26.--(CP)--Two anel- ent and yellowed pieces of cerre-- spondence -- letters exchanged by two men in the historic old prov- inces of Upper and Lower Canada ~have been brought together after a separation of,more than a cen- tury. Bo old that the ink is faded and the paper cracked, the letters bear the remote date of 1818, One was written by Francis L. Walsh of the Upper Canadian town of Charlotte ville and addressed to E. C. Tuttle, an early Montreal stationer and bookbinder; the other letter is Tut- tle's reply to Walsh. LA 4 Thus, one of the letters went o the budding metropolis of Montreal and the other travelled back along the dusty stage coach road by the shores of Lake Ontario and on into the thinly-settled Upper Canadian district now known as Western On- tario. Separated these 128 years, the letters came together unexpectedly the other night when this reporter, a collector of early Canadian let- ters and postage stamps, was visit- ing the Ottawa Philatelic Society and was examining the collection of W. E, D. Halliday, an authority on Canadian postal history and correspondence, Spotting a etter * dressed to Walsh from Montreal, I remarked casually that I had in my collec- tion a letter written by Walsh to Montreal in that same year--1818-- to a man named Tuttle, A quick check disclosed that the two letters actually constituted an exchange of correspondence those many years ago. Written in the precise penman- ship of the early 1800's, the letters in themselves tell a story. They tell of a dispute over three blank books which Walsh, as registrar for the District of Norfolk, had ordered from the Montreal bookbinder, Writing on March 36, 1818, Walsh remarked that Tuttle's charge for the books--""No less than sixty-two dollars, first cost"--would result in their being returned, and added: "The charge for them has been submitted to several of the officers of this government acquainted with their value who have assured me that the amount is much greater than what it ought to have been." He assured Tuttle that the per- son. who returned the books would "Not in the least be blamable if the books find their way to your place" and, with that parting shot, signed himself, "your most obedient, hum-/| ble servant." Tuttle, replying April 25, said the prices charged for the books "as modest as they could be" and were " as low as" any bookbinder would make them for in Montreal. He spoke of his "surprise" at re- ceiving Walsh's letter "more than 11 months" after the books were deliv- ered and almost nine months after they should have been paid for." "You will have my assurance with this information," he concluded, "that I do not allow the officers of your government, nor any other person, to make prices for my la- bor." With further letters in the corre- spondence lost or destroyed years ago, the outcome of the dispute re- mains a mystery of the past. walsh data his* letter from "Charlotteville, District of London, Upper Canada."

In the old days of the prize ring, a round ended with a knockdown and was followed by a 30-second rest period. In the middle of the ring was a mark, often made with a stick in the dirt, which was called the scratch. A fighter who could mot get up to the scratch by the end of the rest period was declared out. In the rough and ready days, a fellow who was not "up-to-scratch" were | hrs, Celebrating 32nd Anniversary Tomorrow Albert Street United Church, corner o' Albert Street and Olive Avenue, 32nd anniversary tomorrow, Special services ha been planned for the occasion and large congregations are expected. which will celebrate its guest speakers are to be present at both. services, Lost 8 Days In Bush, Hunter Swears Off: Survives On Raw Meat Sydney, N.S., Oct. 26 (CP)--Syrian-born steel worker Charles Shaheen was safe at his Sydney home today after wandering through marshy Cape Breton woodland for eight days. Shaheen staggered from district yesterday to climax an ine the woods in the Framboise tensive search that had almost been | given up. When he emerged from the dense underbrush he was 17 miles from the spot where he had entered on a hunting trip last Friday. Bearded and tattered, he stum- bled to the home of elderly Mr. and Mrs, Michael Curtiss of Louls Bay West who gave him food and noti- fled Sydney authorities, In broken English he later told of his experiences in the baffling Frambolse country: * "I eat partridge and rabbit, but no can cook them because my matches got wet when I fell in water. So I just skin them down and eat raw, in slices." He told of coming across an old bear and two cubs, and said: "The little ones had beautiful nice fur. Would have made a nice blanket for me to sleep on at night. But I wasn't taking any chances of tangling with old bear." "Look, this finger got so thin my ring drop off and I lose it," he said, telling of the bitter fight he had to gather food. When asked if he would go hunt- ing again next season he replied. "Hell no. No more woods for me. The only time I will want to see woods from now oh is from auto- mobile," ONTARIO REGIMENT 11th Bis) Army Tank giment NEWS DAILY ORDERS PART I by LT.-COL. L. W.
