When Lorna went out, her aunt was in the hotel, and Heywksford was si‘tting in his seat, studying a magazine. As she approached she saw it was the magazine with her photograph and the chapter about her engagement intit; it flashed on her that perhaps he hadn‘t known she <was engaged, for. with an ultraâ€"modern carelessness of~ such things, she seldom wore her ring... ‘ "I don‘t regard myself as anyone‘s ‘presiarve,‘~" Lorna said. colouring, "I‘m a free individualâ€"at least, I hope so!

Ten minutes later when Lorna sprang out of bed she glanced out the window and saw Hawksford standing below by the car, waiting for her aunt.

If Lorna had not stepped out on to that balcony to look gt the long afternoon shadows, softening the clear cut outlines of the chaotic yellow hills, what followed in the strange and troubled months to come might have been very different... She shared her own room with htr aunt; on the left was her father‘s room; and on the right was Richard‘s. Hawksford slept downstairs. Hawksford was there to drive them to the hotel. Since the morning when they had gone to Mount Egmont, he and Lorna had not exchanged a word except on the matter of the car. The game .of excessive deference on his part was over; they were two formal. coldly estranged human beings. + ‘Bir Weston got out of the car at ‘Army Headquarters and left them, to ;drive on slone.

The situation was uncomfortable, she blamed herself more than ever for having been indiscreet.

CHAPTER 111 Twenw YearsA MthemmeAdnml Her one At the â€" banquet given by the Engleâ€" hart board of=trade to the visiting delegates to the meeting of the Assoâ€" clated Boards of Trade in 1925, Hon. Mr. Martin, Minister of Agriculture for Ontario, was the guest speaker. Hon. Mr. Martin made a great hit with his frank and able address. He suggested the establisanment of Creameries in the North and promised that the Goyvâ€" ernment would assiist in the financing of the same.

Macdonald iwere the representatives of the Timmins board of trade and not only put up a battlq for the resiolutions from Timmins, but also on behalf of the settlers in the North. Twenty years ago there was a very important meeting of the Northern Ontario Associated Boards of Trade at Englehart. The gathering made a number of urgent proposais to the government of the province and reâ€" ceived some definite promises : in reâ€" gard to previous proposals made. ‘It was promised that work would be started in 1925 on the Porquis Juncâ€" tion to Cochrane highway. It was alâ€" _so definitely promiseq that the "Rocky Road along the north shore of Lake Superior‘"‘ as the route of the Transâ€" Canada highway was "out" for good. Among the resolutions ‘before the. meeting was one sponsored by G. A. Macdonald, of Timmins, asking the Government to force. the ‘payment of money owed the settlers for pulpwood before permitting any reâ€"organization of the Mattagami Pulp Co., or the transfer of any limits held by that company. Another matter pressed on the government was â€"in regard to transients from unorganized territory. The Associated Boards; thought that the government, being the only authority collecting any money from unorganized territory, should pay for indigents from unorganized territory. Easier insurance rates for settlers was another matter advocated by the meeting. Rev. Fathers Lajois and Lambert, of Kapusikasing, asked. that $500,000 be ‘spent on roads in North in We xfailowmg five yearï¬ 9 »\Settlers Â¥ they said, | M.â€"__â€"__-_â€"_____‘_ Ancther organization in Schumacher twenty years ago was the Schumacher Social Club, formed at a meeting in the Recreation hall.
