He staked claims, made discoveres and had a bit of luck in deals. With his winnings he returned home and for a while rested and enjoyegd himself. In those years there were periodical real estate booms, so he engaged in selling lots at various points. Returning to Porcuâ€" pine he went underground at the Dome and later worked in the mill, beâ€" coming quite attached to this work and quite expert at it. Then the war broke out and he enlisted in the artillery, gyoing overseas for three years. When he returned to Canada he and several other ambitious youths, having heard of the copper boom in the southâ€" west states, went to Arizona and roamed from camp to camp, workâ€" ing for a few months here and there and seeing the world. Eventuâ€" ally the home pull proved to be too and he came back to Canada to resume prospecting..

Eventually luck smiled onj him and his interests became valuable.| In the simple recital of his history there has been little room for intimâ€" ate details, But behind the shifting | scenes of what would appear to be a| wandering life there was a great deal! of hard work, of ingenuity, of willingâ€"| ness to undertake anything.

Being smart and willing his boss made him timekeeper, later bookkeeper and still later a sort of purchasing agent. At a point farther along his employer found that he was expert in a canoc and hag him handle freight on the Frederickhouse River. Leaving that job he entered the service of the railâ€" way, as a sort of freight agent. Whil» on this work he picked up telegraphy which was one of the ambitions of the youth of the day. Born on a farm he could do certain things, such as drive and care for horses, fall timber, do rough carpenâ€" try, run a canoe, handle a riflie and crect a tent. Such accomplishments were common to all young men of thet time, as they uSsually spent part ‘of their time in the woods, winter and summer.

The adventurous ones amongst them roamed the country in box cars or hitchâ€"hiked the â€" highways _ learning things that were more likely to be harmful than useful. More importâ€" ant, they became â€" rather hopeless, lacking wages and what goes with them in the form of enjoyment and stability. It seems pitiful that while the government could not do anything for them then it is willing to spent billions now for another purpose. Amongst other jobs that were availâ€" able was that of bridge building. This was well paid work and in those days the superstructure was originally of timber, in the art of handling which all farm boys had been initiated. A few months‘ experience and a man could qualify fairly well as an expert. But the work was dangerous and a few stuck to it for long. railways. A young man had to serve an apprenticeship for years and had to stick to his job or the union would not have him. Boomers on the line were used in emergencies and in exâ€" ceptionally busy sceasons. But a felâ€" low could get a job with a contractor who lacked an engineer or a brakeâ€" man; the contractors did not give a hoot about unions. | __Constable Graber, on the stand, said ELhut upon information that a fight was ‘on in front of the Contral Hotel, Bruce lAvcnuc. he had arrived there at 12.20. iHe saw J.
