Thousands of Oshawa citizens took advantage of the opportunity offered them to see one of the crack British trains, and went down to the C.N.R. station to make a tour of inspection through "The Royal Scot," which was here for about four hours, and was the centre of attraction during the whole of that period. Even the officials in charge of the train were surprised at the number of people who -ient through the train, the final count, made just before it left Oshawa for Port Hope, being 6,854. Young and old, people of all classes and walks of life, lined up along- the: platform where the train was stopped, the queue at times being' at least ome hundred yards, long, and, braved the chilly - 'blasts and the discomfort of cbld feet as they 'waited their turn to see through the 'train. ~The luxurious appointments of "The Roghl Scot" caught the. eye of most of the people who went through it. The first-class sleeper, the first-class lounge car, and the, first-class rest- aurant car, with their individual sleep- ing compartments, and- their air of privacy as 'compared, with' Canadian trains, attracted much' attention. The people: were also. greatly impressed) with the small compartments even.in. the third-class cohchés, these being of the typical British pafter n, accom: modating'. about six or eight persons, and in stricking contrast to the Canadian "coaches. Many people expressed surprise at the height of the doors of the coaches above the ground, but this is explain- 'ed by the fact that in Great Britain, the platforms in the railway stations are all elevated, so that the platform comes almost to a level with the foot of i the' doors, thus providing easy éntry and exit from. the coaches. While visitors were not allowed to 'enter the engine, great interest was ~shown in this powerful locomotive which holds many records for speed and non-stop runs, and it was conced- ed that it was more compact than the engines "of the- Canadian railways. The special compartment for smokers, 'the special kitchen. car, with its cook- ing. equipment, the distinctive up- and the compartments of the vestibule coach,, were other features which at- tracted much attention and aroused the admiration of those who saw them. The third-class sleeper, with seven compartments each = accommodating . four beds, was also of much interest. In the first-class sleeper, all the com- partments. were of the individual type, with twelve single berths in the coach, some of them being joined by a-con- necting door for family use. At noon, when the train was due to be closed, there was still a long line of people waiting to see through it, so its departure wgs delayed some- what in order that fione might be dis- appointed, visitors being permitted to enter until 12.30 pm. A party of boy scouts and sea scouts under their Scoutmaster J. H. Rigg, was on duty as guides and guards on the train, There was no indication, however, or (Perry, Kolstery of the first-class dining car ) two scouts being assigned fo edch coach to protect the train from the the depredations of souvenir hunférs any person desirous of taking away souvenirs, the crowd passing through' the train in a very orderly fashioh, -- we wo-------------- = 4 WARRINER LODGE VISITS " LINDSAY ag In responsé to a belated invitation to spend the evening as guest of the { Lindsay Lodge, I. O, O. F., about. 25 | members of Warriner Lodge, Port motored to that northern : clime last Monday evening. It was the occasion of a visit from the Grand Master, besides a varied and lengthy 'program. The first degree was put on by a team of veteran members: of Lindsay. Lodge, all being members for 256 years and more. The work was well exemplified to a' class of seven candidates. After the degree about 200 sat down to a feast fit for a king," especially if he happened to be hung- ry. There was only one instance, in so far as the writer's knowledge goes, where at the end of the meal a chair créaked and groaned until it finally: collapsed under the apparent too much weight, and, deposited the occupant under the. table.. Of course this was just a passing incident for no- sooner, 'wis "the crash heéard-and- the 'causé iscovered when members observing ; that'a brother in the distance was in| need of assistance, and. .new. and stronger chairs: were: forth- -eoming inimediately. Without: further ado "the program procéeded. - Songs new- and -old, ac- companied by ihstrunients 'and men' of the same description, humorous stories about the Scotch and the Irish, with short addresses from members of the visiting lodges brought 'thé pro- ceedings up to the address of the eysning) that-of. thé Grand Master. "Grand Master Gray, who. has re pe | sented. the ; County. of , Leeds: in Legislature, proved himself - -a' very! fin 'teresting 'spedker; ~ 'His message: to all _Qddfénows," illustrated" by 'stores, incidents, to human | life; sgemed | to make the minutes - fly .very quickly. The outstanding feature of his -ad- dress was the contrast of Oddfellow- 'ship of a few years ago, when it was quite unconstitutional to give any 'as- sistance whatever to anyone except a member of the order, to the Oddfel- lowship of the present time in which they relieve distress no matter where it is found, circumstances permitting. The meeting disperséd- amid hearty | handshaking, as old friendships had been renewed and new friends made. "And as each bid the 'other bon voyage, betokened a spirft: of good will to such an extent to make one wonder if the world was made up bf such how could war be possible. : PORT BERRY HIGH SCHOOL + The Literary Society will hold its next meeting in the. auditorium of 'the school on Fr iday, November 24th, at 3 o'clock. The program. is .upder. the direction of Form. II pupils.
