sy HA ea Ce, A Ini _ J MY a Tr HA Cs or 1 Cyd an OR a en, Co 2 SRT A A Letter from . England * by Rev. Mr. Denny London, England, 1935 Dear Mr. Farmer, Editor of the Port Perry, Ont. It seems strange not being able tu -¢onvey some news for the "The Port Perry Star". One who has not travel- led for a few years across the seas sees a wonderful change, The boats that carry passengers have complete- ly changed their mode of procedure. We are at present nearing Old Eng- land .in the R.M.S. Aurania and are travelling on the average of about 15 knots an hour. We are certainly being used well, everyone who has some office on the boat seems to vie with everyone else in showing the passengers every courtesy. possible, It matters not in what class the pas- sengers may be travelling, oven' the treatment accorded to the Third Class passengers today is fully equal what was shown First Clasy passengers twenty years ago, and the accommodation leaves nothing to 'be desired. The food provided is just as good as that furnished in agy large hotel, and just as daintily served and every delicacy in season it at the option of the passenger; in fact, everything is done to tempt his appetite, no matter how fastidious his taste may be. This boat, the Aurania, one of the Cunard-White Star liners is about 520 feet in length and about 65 feet in "breadth and yet is capable of supply- ing 'a population as large as Port Perry with food and ample accomm- dation for a fortnight at least. It has a crew of 230 and each one employed on the boat is well up to his job. § Yesterday the Purser very court- * eously sent a lad around with me to see the many marvels the boat con- tains. It is surprising to sée how many cold storage rooms' there are at the disposal of the people em- ployed in the kitchen, each one being filled at the -commencement of the passage and emptied at the close. The first class accommodation re: minds one of passing through the various rooms of some high class hotel, and in the beautiful weather we have experienced on the trip, -one would. not realize that he is im mid- ocean, for there is not the slightest jar or vibration, until he glances through a port-hole and sees the motion of the boat as she gently glides over the ocean. : The passengers are drilled on the first day of voyage in the manner of wearing life preservers and the crew have two or 'more drills to prepare them for any emergeney. Then several-times during the voyage the engineers are busily engaged in tést- ing the air-tight compartments so]- that in any case df emergency they are 'quite ready and, nothing 'left to chance. A fleet of dife bent is on deck] ready to let' down in the case of emergency and it appears to an on- looker that one is safer on board ship than he is in any of the stréets of our cities, where human life's seems to be held so cheaply. Thé well-being of the passengers is also well. considered. Everybody is rounded - up for service" 'on Sunday morning and. no one can say that he never heard the summons. Last Sun- day we were privileged in hearing the Church of England service 'beautiful- ly conductéd by thie Captain and First Mate. They advise that this is the custom on all British Boats every Sunday morning" and on this boat Mass is provided for any Roman Catholic person every morning. Nor is the social welbeing of the passengers neglected - for everyday there is something provided for him and every day there is something new on hand, so that none can com: plain that he is neglected in any way. In bad or foggy weather extreme caution is shown. Only one occasion were we held up and that was be- cause when we had been on the -wgter a couple of days, the fog was so bad that we were held up five hours. We are not only having a good time on the sea but are kept in cloge touch with the land by radio and every morning every passenger is furnished with a news paper containing. the latest news and printed as we travel across the main, so we are not lost, : though at gea. They say that England has changed ~ in recent years, but if that change is as drastic as the mode of travelling has been in recent years, then it will 'be a change indeed. It has been my pleasure to travel 'the ocean a few times but the hat has occasioned the greatest "pointments met here on Monday night will be discontinued on September 30, "SONYA Fi week end with her father Mr. Geo, Williamson, Sympathy is extended to Mrs. W.
