I heard no one speak of him in my terms ave thou He has a place in the heel"! at all true Britishers. 1 like this story about him best of all. It has not keen published and l heerd it on very good authority so I do hope it is true. An American nevul ship was clicked in the Thames end three young midshipmen (if thet is the Am- erican term for young navel officers) made up their mindn they were going tr. see Churchill before they sailed 'back to America. U-UCI 'V -u-u-vâ€" v-.â€" They vlent to Gutteravflle and were told by the gatekeeper that the great man was seeing nobody that day. Being K‘Americans. and young. they found a ' place to break through a ience and trespassed far enough to see- the gentleman walking in hia garden. ‘ They shouted "Hi"-â€"-and Churchill saw them and asked them what they were doing there. They told him and their open nomination melhed his heart. Heâ€"toid them to bust through the fenre, took them into the house, dined and wined them, gave them each a souvenir cigar, and then made each one swear solemnly that they would. not let a word of their esca- pade leak cut. “I don’t want to be- deluged with all the other members of your. crew," he said. When they reacted mid-Atianticâ€"-and not till then, did he give them permission to tell. What a triumph to boast about! I thought perhaps I might crash the gate with the-magic “I am a Cana- dian tourist.” but I thought better of it. So I did not realize ifiy ambition. However I did sit on the doorstep of No. 10 "Downing -St., one quiet Saturday afternoon much to the amazement of a nice young English policeman. I 'spoke' to him after- wards, and told him I'was sane, but had told some of my Canadian friends I would do just that. and when the opportunity offered I wOn my bet. These English policemen are very well educated men and most oblig- mg. The 01:! saying, “Ask a police- :man" still is true for most ,any- thing. ' ‘ I found them wonderful. Another grand institution for Canadian tour- ists 'is Canada House off Trafalgar Square in London. When I wanted information I went there and found the attendants most obllging. I wanted to be directed to the Belgian Embassy, as I knew I must have a Belgian vise on my pass- port if I wanted to go to Belgium. The attendant not only gave me expli- cit directions but escorted me to .the proper bus for'Eaton Square where 'the Embassy is situated. And while on the subject of cour- tesy and .politeness'I would. like to give a word of praise to the tele- phone operators of England. Wherexer one goes one sees these telephone kiosks for public conven- ience. Along every highway at half- mile intervals is a telephone booth lighted up at night. Naturally I always prefaced my request with the words “I am a Can- adian.” Before leaving England I wrote to the tourist bureau telling them of the excellent service I had re- ceived and on my return to Canada found that the “Globe and Mail” had listed South Porcupine as the location of\one person who had sent praise- worthy approval of the English tele- phone operators. to the Tourist Bu-l reau. I?' have often asked the operator to locate somebody for meâ€"perhaps knowing nothing beyond name; street and town. an] have alwaxs had perfect courtesy. Next week I hope to giVe a' des- cription of my yiSit to Belgimn and to the Canadian Cemetery it Adegem where some of 0111' Algonquin Regi- ment heroes are buried. The Kiwanis dinner meeting on Monday took the 'form of a Remem- brance Day observance. ‘ President Wm. Boyd was in the chair and Walter Honer introduced Mr. Percy Boyce of Schumacher as guest speaker. Mr. Boyce. in an excellent and in- teresting talk held his audience as he told of personal exfleriences as ' a veteran of the First World War. He was thanked by another veteran of World War lâ€"â€"Dan McLellan. Singing and a. solo "One Sweetly Solemn Thought," by Lloyd Hunkin brought thg evening to a close.
