Teils Story of Canadian Pacific Railway and Building of Dominion NEW BOOK MAKES ROMANCEF OF HISTORY erican once reâ€" ferred to the Canâ€" adian Pacific Railâ€" way as "Canada on Wheels." Great as it is, the Canaâ€" dian Pacific would be the last to apâ€" propriate such an appellation. It can be truthfully said, , however, that to understand the reâ€" Zlcent history of the Dominion one R. G. MacBETH _ must know that of the Canadian Pacific. Now at last comes a volume, well illustrated with photographs, which presents that history in its most palatable formâ€"that is, in a form emphasizâ€" ing the human factor,â€"*"The Roâ€" mance of the Canadian Pacific Railâ€" way," by R. G. MacBeth (the Ryerâ€" son Press, Toronto, $2.50). THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO The author, who has a number of historical works to his credit, is singularly well equipped. Apart from his literary skill, he has the advantage of having lived in the Canadian West all his life. He has always been in close touch with the Canadian Pacific, though he is careful to point out that he has never bsen connected with it and has written and published hl% book independently. Mr. MacBeth here traces the amazâ€" ing story of the company‘s developâ€" ment into the world‘s greatest transâ€" portation system; of the steamships, of the telegraph and express; colonâ€" ization; irrigation; hotels and bunâ€" galow camps; of its war service and of all its activities, with a wealth of interesting detail which illustrates the brilliant administrative and orâ€" ganizing ability of its executive. Canadians should be proud, as Mr. MacBeth reminds them, that their country appr oved the construcâ€" tion ‘of this pioneer transcontinental when the population was only 4,000,â€" 000, though the United States had not dared to undertake aâ€" similar road till she uad ten times that numâ€" ber. The frightful difficulties, poiiâ€" tical, technical and financial, through which the company‘s sponsors and founders fought their way to victory are well summarized. For instance, it is recalled that sections of the line north of Lake Superior cost $500,â€" (»00 a mile to build, and a muskeg ast of Wmmpeg swallowed seven trac]@, before 1t was conquered. The author shows that the triumphant accomplishment of the work was esâ€" pecially creditable because it took place in a period of immense depresâ€" sion. Sir William Van Horne, general manager and later president, that man of tireless energy, vision and determination, is the central figure in the volume and there are many anecdotes illustrating his versatile character. But all the other great men of the company â€" Mount Stephen, Shaughnessy, Beatty, 4nâ€" gus and a host of othersâ€"receive their due. Lord Shaughnessy‘s fine words: "The shareholders and direcâ€" tors of the company have always been impressed with the idea that th« interests of the company are inâ€" timately connetted with those of the Dominion and noe effort or expense has been spared to help in promoting the development of the whole counâ€" try‘" are amply backed by the comâ€" pany‘s deeds. And the author makes a statement which is very a propos when he says: "The country and the railway, in such a case as this, must stand or fall together. Each is necessary to the prosperity of the other. Hence for one to attempt the destruction of the other is practically a roundabout but effective way for that one to commit suicide." N ANOTHER MEETING POULTRY AsSSOCIATION ON FTRIDAY Another meeting of the Poreupine Pou‘try and Pet Stock Association 1s called for the Council Chamber, Timâ€" mins, on Friday evening of this week, March 27th, at 8 p.m. All} members and others interested in poultry and pet stock should attend. "The meeting wiil have several mattem to consider and al} poultry fameiers should be Toronto, â€"Montreal and Ottawa have agreed to start what is known as Saving Time,"‘ on May 3rd, this year,â€"the eanliest yet for this bug to go into effect, â€" These three cities are the only ones of any size in Canada that continue to kid themâ€" selves by monkeying with the elocks, Ircquois Falls is the one town in this part of the North that did not reâ€" cover after the war from this queer form of se‘fâ€"kidding. l oronto, â€" Montre? ha\'e agreed to start s **Daviight Saving facetious Amâ€" ) COnsl should OGGCIOENTAL CURLERS WIN FROM DRIENTALS A. 8.

The tyelfth end saw the seore a tie, the thirteenth put the Club one to the good, and it was then decided to play the fourteenth end to give the Orientals an extra chance, but the Club again registered one point.â€" Seeking an excuse for the loss of the game Skip Prout with rare gallantry tried to take all the blame himself, but Doe. Melnnis thought it was because his red trousers were too large, â€" while Elvin Urqubhart was equally insistent it was the lack of a fez. Pete Macauley thought the A. S. D. Club were! represented by a stronger rink. _ The representatives of the Club know why they won, but 4s it i8 e\'pectcd that challenges will e coiming in thick and fast in the near future this will be kept a secret.
