We went direct td Narrow Lake Portage and made ourselves at home at the Patricia Lodge, which was to be our home for the week we were there. 'It'is a very pretty spot over- yards to the westward is Narrow Lake. Across this portage, all ma- chinery and equipment for the mines on Narrow Lake must be taken, so it is usually a very busy place. The Post Office, 'Narrow Lake', is situated in the Patricia Lodge, and this is the nearest post office to the Bathurst and the Dunkin. There is another post office at Jackson Manion, about 10 miles down the lake. We were at Narrow Jake on two mail days, and on the first, 8 bags of mail were sent out, and the second, 6 bags were sent out. We were told that weekly re- mittances to Ottawa, at Narrow Lake have been as high as $700., $800. and $900. This money comes from the sales of Money Orders and Stamps. | During the boom of 1927, they have sent out ad much as 19 bags of mail Lin one day. ; The Woman Lake district is very beautiful. The water is very clear 'and the shores are rocky. In some places the rock slants right into the water making a perfect dock ,while 175 miles by radio, 1100 miles by wire, | and letter in reply travelled 1100 miles by train and 176 miles by airplane, and all that was done from 4 o'clock Tuesday afternoon to 8.30 Saturday morning. On our return trip we' flew from Narrow Lake to Sioux Lookout, stop- ping a few hours in Gold Pines. The cabin planes are most comfortable, and it is possible to walk around in them and look out the windows on both sides. On our return trip we were up 3500 feet, and were running about 1356 miles per hour. SRI CARTWRIGHT CIRCUIT NEWS Rev. F. W. Newell, B.A, B.D., Services September 1st.
