Davison "That Touch" Joseph Denny We have read the Midas "touch", the Drake and the Nelson "touch" but did you ever come in contact with the Quebec "touch"? : In Quebec one is touched for every- There is a two per cent. Pro- vincial tax (or touch) on all purchases, a two per cent City of Montreal tax, on everything but food, but should that food fall into the luxury class there is also a tax on that. Then you are touched if you pass "over a toll bridge in Quebec, and their number is legion. L For a small sized bus in which we travelled "the price was $1.25 cvery time the bus passed over the Royal Victoria Bridge, and- for buses of a larger type some- times the owner is charged as much as 60c. more. Small passenger cars have to pay also but the rate begins at 30c. upwards according to size and - trucks Have to pay -accordingly. In Ontario we have noticed a great deal of roadwork being done especially around clection times, but in the Pro- torn up continuously whether an election is coming or not, so "that after having paid to visit Quebec one is quite happy to return to Ontario the place of his adoption. Quebec by this time is quite recon- ciled to be under British rule. She knows that under any other form of government conditions would® not be quite so happy. As she is she is sure of retaining hoy religion and language but being | merged into some other country might be the means of losing ~~ her identity. In travelling over the rough roads of Quebec in one of the modern buses one is reminded of the combination of the ancient and the modern just as one finds today in old England in . Devon and Cornish towns with their narrow streets and cobble stones (thought in many of these - English towns there is nothing but the cobble We read sometime ago } tations of Rusaia are built quite a little piece away from the towns owing to graft. In Quebec a large number of her towns and vilages are built on the same prin- ciple though one never expects to find any existence of graft in the Province of Quebec. A vast transformation has taken place, in the Province of Quebec dur- The coming together of the ancient and the mod- ern having a strange effect on the stones left). mode of travel, and it occasioned much surpgise to find that there are no fewer than fifty-six new bus routes in operation leading in and out of Montreal, and all in so short a time. It might also be interesting to note that for an ambitious person there is no more promising field to reach the top than in the ancient Province, and if one has acquired success there the way is made easier for him because of that success than in any other Pro- vince.in the Dominion. It is strange to sce some old village being jnvaded by - some up-to-date motor -vehicle, The old village still has the primitive appearance, the cen- tral edifice being the very imposing church - surrounded -by streets and stréets- in which the habitants with their numerous progeny still exist. In the earlier days it was no uncommon experience to run across families con- taining a couple of dozen in number, nor does the examplet of their neigh- bours of other origin seem to affect thew in any. way for large families are quite the: fashion for thé=French Canadian wherever he dwells. For a long period the French Can- adian has felt the effect of the de- pression with the rest of us, but he does not seem to be quite so extrava- gant as the other dwellers of Canada. They can made a full meal of pea soup and be quite content with the repast, nor has their mode of living made any great or noticeable change during the years, : - The habitant is not quite so am- bitious as the other people living in the sister Province. He is quite con- tent with his small holding while the other nationals are always sceking to increase their substance, At- the pesent time labour is ex- tremely scarce as elsewhere, It is also dificult to get and very unsatisfactory at that. In the lumber camps men are demanding a higher scale of pay and the farm labourer is looking for an easier existence and is flocking to the factory where the wages are much higher and the hours of labour are stated. This state of affairs is af- fecting women as well as men, General prosperity has replaced a long and depressing period. = There appears to be quite a demand for young English lads who can speak French in preference to French boys "who can speak English. Last Saturday. we met a group of hunters from Montreal who had caught sight of three bears, the next day we learned that they were con- tinuing their quest, but this time they were looking for Goldilocks. The -cities, towns and villages of Quebee still continue to have charms for the rest of mankind. The Churches are very appealing and the crowds that resort to them-in-all kinds of weather and in all seasons and at all hours of the day especially in the carly morning, still continue to rebuke those of us who are not faithful to our.religious obligations, The English speaking people of Quebee in the present trouble are drawn much closer to the habitant and the later now takes his national obligations much more seriously just as his English speaking compatriot is doing. In the last war the French Canadian was rebellious at the ap- he knows today that if Britain loses would mean the loss of all that he as a French Canadian, like the rest of us, holds dear.
