Reeve Kerr made a 'few closing re- marks thanking the proprietors for the use of the theatre and expressing his pleasure at the loyalty expressed by the very large attendance at the service. Minisâ€"VIEW “llFE” The orchestra played will “Polo Nord" and Mr. JuV'3nen sang in Finnish “Sun- day M-crning." He has a» very fine voice and impressed the audience very fa- vcurably. “O God Our Help in Ages Past" was sung before the National Anthem con- cluded the service. Our new King is a modest. quiet and true man, worthy of his ancient lineage, and with his Scottish consort, is the type of Royal Personage to ‘carry on the moral standards of our royal throne. Dr. Fraser carried the cosmopolitan audience with him. We were only too sorry that he did not ask for three cheers for King George VI. He would have had every person in that hall on his feet if he had done so. 1937 is exactly one hundred years since Queen Victoria. was made Queen of Britainâ€"and during that timeâ€"a century the most expansive in history --â€"Cvur throne was held by Victoria. her son and grandson. “No place in the world." said Dr. Fraser, “is there where the common man is heard. as in England, where he lives in safety and freedom. A coinci- dence which is not sufficiently stressed was also brought out by the speaker. He smke of the British Constitution -â€"â€"how it has evolvedâ€"the British Crown and what it means, and how it has survived and why we love it. And why when crowns in Europe tumbled and fell the throne in Britain endured through the wisdom. sense .and in- fluence of the people surrounding it. and their love of the sovereign who oc- cupied it. The Ukrainian Orchestra composed of a number of children all in native cos- tume and very beautiful too. under the direction of Mr. M. Kostynyk, sang in their own language “The Danube River F lows." and were rapturcusly encored. Mr. Kostynyk himself made a most picturesque figure in a blue velvet coat with peasant blouse and scarlet trou- sers tucked into high Russian boots. as he conducted the orchestra. Mandolins were played as the children sang. The audience sang “Abide With Me" before Dr. Fraser gave his address. Dr. Fraser made a splendid speech. He gauged the feeling of the audience there and in delicate and feeling man- ner touched the note of common pa- triotism to a common country and a common King. He gave illustrations in simple language and stressed the im- portance of British freedom and right which all may learn 'by practising ”the sovereign art of living together.” 1 South Porcupine Held Unique Service The band played an overture. The people sang as one “All People That on Earth Do Dwell." and “O Canada." before Archdeacon Woodall offered prayer for the King and his people.

There were pictures of great cities at night and by day, of sunrise over Marathon in Greece, and over the coast of Siam. of common folk with whom the brothers became friends, of places in the Holy Land. The most impressive picture was that taken of the Taj Mahai in the moonlight, with a sky of gold speaked cfi-ered a ride by the same driverâ€"at other times they did not know which one was ahead. At one point, LeRoy, waiting for a ride was surprised to see a car that was travelling at top speed skid to a stop and the driver ask him how he got ahead, when he (the driver) just saw him one hundred miles back. and had been travelling at sixty-five ever since, and no one passed him. The race was won by the younger brother who reached home a day sooner than the elder brother. From Palestine they crossed the Syrian Desert to Iraq, and across the Persian Gulf to India where they tra- velled in the third class coaches with the Indian people and slept in railway stations. From Calcutta they proceeded to Burma, were lost in the Malay jungle from which many men have never returned, and journeyed up the coast of China to Shanghai. In Shang- hai, the younger brother LeRoy became ill, and all trouble coming at once. their suitcase containing passports and 1400 films was stolen. However. the sun soon shone again, for LeRoy‘s ill- ness was not serious, and the suitcase“ min-us some souvenirs, was recoveredl They stayed there for a month in a sailors’ home, and then secured jobs a'bsard a tramp steamer which brought them to Vancouver. Now, for the first time, the brothers tried a method of travel that they advise no one else to try â€"â€"riding Heightsâ€"and in this manner reached San Francisco. From this, southern city it was a “thumbing" race‘ home. Sometimes the brothers were After visiting Greece. t‘hey travelled to Palestine, to remain there for three months exploring the sacred places of Scripture and making friends wherever they went. While there, they studied archaeology at the American School of Oriental Research.

Mr. Toll said “we cock-ed our meals and darned our socks." prov- ing that it was not all play on the 30.- 000 mile trip. In Paris the brothers sold their vehicle of transportation and began their hitch-hiking adventures. Appar- ently, the people were unfamiliar with the American hitch-hiker, but, never- theless, stopped their cars, being our- ious to know why these two young men were standing by the road with their thumbs in the air. (NOt always “standing,” for in one of their pic- tures, the brothers were reclining at the side of the road). They travelled through Switzerland and Italy, being twice arrested in the latter country be- cause the authorities were against their method of travel.
