AflU urawr TUE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVTLLE, ONTARIO THURSDAY, AUGUST 23, 195! Lurrent and Con fidential CENTENARY AT MOOSONEE To most people the name Moos- onee signifies only some remote spot in the northland, for which,, *for some unknown reason, the high and low temperatures are If given on the weather forecast. But Moosonee. situated on the tidal Moose River, 12 miles from .James Bay, with close to 300 years of fur trading history behind it, *,backed by dense forests of slim gpruce and pine, and facing to- .ward the cold waters of the bay where Henry Hudson in 1611 was abandoned by his mutinous crew -Moosonee personifies the north. Here Cree Indians fromn farther ,north around Port Albany corne in 24 foot freigbt canoes to spend the summer. With their resident Cree brothers they trade at the Hudson's Bay store, the free trade store, or the Hudson's Bay trading post on Moose Factory Island, four miles out in the Moose River. . At the beginning of August this year, the Crees for many miles aiong James and Hudson's Bays gathered on this island, along wit'n 200 or more piigrims from al parts o! Ontario, to celebrate the 'centenary, August 5, o! the Angli- can Church at Moose Factory. This tremendous influx of visi- tors was put up in the Hudson's Bay Staff House and the pew1y completed, ultra-modern bospital 'which has just been buiit by the Department of Indian Affairs ta serve a large area around the Bays. No less than six bishops were present,' headed by Bishop- tPLAN TO AT' jR. J. Renison, an old friend of the Crees and the Eskimos, and at the colorful and impressîve 10 a.m. service on August 5. Arch- deacon N. R. Clarke was conse- crated as suffragan (assistant) bishop of Moosonee under Bishop Renison. Eariier in the day, at 7:30, Hoiy Communion was held in the Cree language. Afternoon and evening services were aiso held. Rt. Rev. W. L. Wrigbt, Bishop of Aigoma, brother of J. DePencier Wright, a former rec- tor of St. John's Anglican Church, Bowmanviiie. was, present and took part in the services. The present church building was erected in 1860, and has a unique feature. Once in its his- tory, the church was moved off its base by high flood water and great blocks of ice. After this, pegs were let into the floor, and if the height of the flood seems dangerous, these are puiled out and the water allowed to rise in the building. Things get a bit dirty and sodden. but this dam- age can be remedied. The main thing is that the church stays put. Northland Railvays Two of our friends from Bow- manvilie took the 667 mile jour- ney north by train and spent four days at Moosonee and Moose Fac- tory Island. They went, not as piigrims to the centenary, but as ordinary vacationers, and stayed at Log Lodge in Moosonee, the oiodge being run by the Ontario Northiand Raiiway, formeriy the Temiskaming and Northern On- tario.

It reached Cochrane in 1908. Many proposais had been made for a rail connection to James Bay, but it was 1932 before the steel rails led to Ontario's sea- port at Moosonee. Riding the Ontario Northland, our friends say. is like travelling along Main Street. Each mile is marked from Cochrane on, and to these markers, faiiing a rail- way station, come lumbermen, trappers, farmers, Indians. Some come to catch the train, some just to see it go tbrough. Everybody seems to know everybody else along the line, and passengers pile off when the train stops, to have a littie chat. Then the whistle toots, and it's "ail aboard" again. Out of Cochrane, the train is known as the "Polar Bear," and is as famous in the north as the "Sky Chief" in the U.S., though maybe flot as speedy owing to its accommodating stops along the way. When the Polar Bear puiled in at Moosonee on Saturday night, August 4, bearing our friends, and about 200 people bound for Moose Factory Island and the centen- ary celebrations, it was just four hours late. Our friends were staying on the mainland. but the pilgrims had to be transported to the island, though it was now 10 p.m.. and dark. Barges had been provided for this purpose, but as the tide bad gone out by now, baring the many sand bars in the river, these were no longer practicable. So the 200 pilgrims were packed into the 24 foot Cree canoes and set off through the dark night. The navigators of these always wear bip rubber boots, and if tbey run on a sand bar, they hop out and shove off again. Quite an ex- perience for landlubbers though. Their trip by Polar Bear and canoe. and tbe colorful and im- pressive services the following day are something tbey wiil prob- abiy neyer forget. ROMANCE 0F THE PAST If you're stili with us on this jaunt into Ontario's romantic northland, we'd like to tell you that the Hudsgn's Bay Company was founded in 1670 because of the dîscovery of rich fur peits in the Moosonee area by those two intrepid French coureurs de bois, Radisson and Groseilliers. Being In the bad books of the French Governor at the time, and unabie tb placate him even with their rich cargo of furs from this new source, they left New France in disgust, and contacted the English in New England. From there they went to England and saw the newiy restored monarch, Charles II. himself. The King was impressed with their story of rich furs, and so were a group of rich merchants. The King outfitted two ships to make the voyage to Hudson's Bay in 1668. Radîsson's "Eaglet"' was driven back by a storm, but Groseillier's "N o n s u c h" won through. wintered at the mouth of the Rupert River, and brought back a rich cargo. Fort Charles was bulit on that site. The mer- chants who had financed the venture, along with the King, were so impressed by its success, that they formed a company on May 2, 1670, known as "The Gov- ernor and Company of Adventur- ers of England trading into Hud- son's Bay." As a symbol of its obligation to the Crown, the company was to "yield and pay yearley to us. our heires and successors, two Elkes and two Black Beavers whenso- ever and as often as we, our heires and successors shahl hap- Pen to enter into the said Coun- tryes.'" This payment was made when George VI and Queen Eiz- abeth visited Canada in 1939. The next expedition that went out in 1670, traded with the Crees at the mouth of the Moose River and about 1673 a fort was built on Hayes Island in the river. About 1736 a new fort was built on Moose Factory Island, and to this day in 1951, fur trading still goes on at that post which is where the Anglican centenary mention- ed eisewhere, was celebrated. The famous R.C.M.P. have a post here from which they administer jus- tice to this part o! the north. Two important things w e haven't mentioned: everything south of Cochrane is referred to as "outside," even tbough Mdos- once, 186 miles north. is consid- ered only a taking-off place for points farther north; and Moos- once ls becoming famous for the shootmng season of the great Can- ada Goose. The Bays, Hudson and James, are a gathering place for hundreds upon hundreds of these birds on their way south in the Fail. Hunters going north for wild goose sbooting have the experience of their lives. If you want to read a book about the north, try "The North- land Ontario." by O. T. G. Wil- liamson, Public Relations Director for the Ontario Northiand Rail- way. YouIli find it fascinating.

If many more o! our relatives de- cide to take the big plunge we will bave to bit tbe boss up for a raise. or else go in for counter- feiting. Before we go broke we intend to buy another dollarsi worth of tickets on that nifty1 Buick to be given away by thbc Lions Club on August 2 4. If xvc don't win the car we will know our dollar is being weli spent in1 maintaining a ward in the new1 hospitai, purcbasing an anaestbet-1 ic machine, an x-ray machine and1 conducting T.B. survcys. Most o! us have probabiy tbrown mnany a dollar down the drain that1 didn't bring us the satisfaction1 that a buck's worth of tickets oni the Lions' Buick will. It doesn't look as though our Royal Cousins intend fa pay us a visit this trip. Weil, xve shouldi worny if they don't want to ride1 in our jeep, shake our grubbyi littie band and admire our ragged paint-spotted overalîs. Guess we wilI just have to go on hobnob- bing with the proletariat. According to the Christian Sci- ence Monitor a preacher living in Illinois, dlaims he saw growing in bis garden, a whole row o! plants that are producing both tomatocs and potatoes. He sax-s the tomatocs arc growing on the vines and potatoes on the roots. He further dlaims he only planted potato seed in the plot. That gentleman should -be more care- ful how he spikes bis coffee these warm days. I once imbibed a skinful o! vin blanc and vin rouge. The mixture so affected my eyesight that I didn't notice the Colonel's rank insignia, with the resuit that the Colonel be- came so concerned that be ne- commended I be kept in the clink for three days f0 see if my eyes would came back t0 normal. The M.O.'s didn't use penicillin in those days, but our old Colonel was resourceful. he was kind enough to sec that I was given three days' pack drill, in the hooe that the eyesight cure would be more effective. It was! Some time ago, a sanctimoni- ous chap bandcd mc soi-c liter- ature that stated positivciy there is a Hell, and that if I wasn't care- fui. I'd cnd up square in tl;.P middle o! the old man-trap. The nice old gentleman who gave me the tract doesn't smoke. swear, chew, drink or tell lies (he says). But he does hoid mortgages in several centres on working men's properties, and those mortgages return bim interest rates from seven to ten per cent. He bold me he neyer takes chances. Mie amount involved must not be too great, the prbperty value must be at least twice the inyested value. the interest must not be less than seven per cent, and as much more as the traffic will bear. Although he admitted to me that the interest from his invest- ed capital is more than sufficierA to keep him and his wife in comfort for the remainder of their lives. they are busily seek- ing proof of age in order to drag $40 each per month out of the federai treasury, via the Old Age Pension. We can only assume be is happy at the thougbt of pro- curing more ¶noney to lend out to bring in more money. I think any person who takes advantage o! another person's needs. by gouging him for ten per cent, is rapidiy quaiifying bimself for an extra hot seat in Gehenna. His concern for my soui's wel- fare would be more commendable if he used more practical Chris- tianity toward the poor wage ear- ning slaves who borrow his money.

We have just received word that a couple o! ex-mule-skinners of our old battalion have had to quît the businesses they have been engaged in since their discharge from the Army back in 1919. They both emigrated from Scotland ta Canada in their youtb. Both serv- ed during the entire first world war with the 19th Bn. Slowly en- croaching blindness bas forced Bill Kirkaldy, at the age of 55 to turn in bis Lieutenant's badge to the Hamilton Fire Dept. His pension will be smnail because he dici fot compiete bis full time. The other chap is Jimmy Da- vidson, who bas been a trucker of coal for over tbirty years, but who bas bad to quit at 59 because bis heart just won't stand the strain any longer. Bill could really wear a uni- form, wbetber it was tbc kilted dress o! bis beloved Highland Regiment, the 'plain kbaki o! the l9th Bn.. or tbe natty, dark blue o! the Hamilton Fine Dept. When Jimmy was in the army bis but- tons were seidom shiny, bis uni- form rarely looked idy, he was aiways bumming tobacco or some- thing. But there neyer bneathed two more lovable, generous, syým- pathetic fellows. Bill wili have a smali pension. Jimmy won't because he operated bis own truck for bire. I bate to sce two good guys like these pushed un- ceremoniously fa the sidelines by fate. It must be a bitter pill ta swaliow. for them. "Old soidiers neyer die, they fade away." Yes, but the "fading away" hurts when Vets like these get bit be- low the beit. Tbe value o!
