E. REYNOLDS & CO. Phone 49 King Street Colborne Nineteen ex-service men's families, Bent out to Canada by the British Empire Service League, arrived at Quebec recently on the Canadian Pacific liner "Montrose." These families, totalling in all about 100 persons, have been carefully selected and have been given training at the Ministry of Labor's Training Farm at Brandon, Suffolk, England. The men will carry on farming in the Western part of the Dominion. A» unique "Seeing Canada" expedition will set out from Ottawa on August 4 this year to visit the principal points of interest in the provinces from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The party to make the tour will include a selected number of delegates to the World's Poultry Congress, to be held at Ottawa in July. Practically all the nations of the world will be represented, and the party will journey first to the eastern part of the Dominion over the Canadian Pacific lines. Record wool clip and wheat output for the past year have placed Australia in a condition of prosperity that was never so great as at present, according to J. M. Myres, correspondent of the London "Daily Telegraph," when interviewed at the headquarters of the Canadian Pacific Railway in Montreal recently on his way from the Commonwealth to England. He estimated that the exports from Australia had probably reached a record figure. The farthest north settlement in the world, Bache peninsula, is cheered by radio programmes. Situated in the Arctic Ocean, 750 miles above the Arctic circle, this far-flung outpost is situated ten and one-half de-grees off the North Pole. Here there is a post of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the garrison consisting of Sergeant Joy, two constables, and a few Eskimos. From November to March they do not see sunlight. Their one great pleasure is in listening to radio programmes from the outside world. A unique musical event will take place at the Chateau Frontenac, Quebec, May 20 to 22, when a folk song and handicraft festival will be held. The songs will be sung by local singers, famous for their knowledge of traditional airs of Old Quebec. French-Canadian folk songs are gaining in popularity throughout the country since so many them have been translated into Eng" lish by John Murray Gibbon, of Montreal. Charles Marchand, one of the outstanding interpreters of these old-time songs, will figure prominently at the coming musical festival. President Coolidge's natal State, Vermont, has been brought vividly to the aftention of the Middle West, Ontario and Quebec by a special train, known as the Vermont Maple Sugar Special, which has been touring the western states and which visited Ontario and Quebec in the latter part of April, carrying special exhibit of Vermont products and also a car of Canadian Pacific exhibits. Governor John E. Weeks, Vermont's chief executive, and Mrs. Weeks, together with his staff, the United State? Senator for Vermont, and many other State legislators and representatives of leading business interests, were aboard the train durin.tr its extended tour. Sidelights on the Chinese situation were thrown by travellers from a trip around the world, who arrived at the Windsor street station in Montreal recently, on the last lap of their journey. They were: Harrison Williams, well-known public Utilities financier of New York; Paul Cravath, general counsel of the Missouri Pacific Railroad; and Colonel R. B. Worgan, of the Indian army, who had joined the trip at Madras. Mr, Cravath was in Shanghai, his arrival corresponding with the capture of the city by the Nationalist forces. Mr. Cravath' stated that he had not heard a shot fired on that day, and would not have been aware he was in a city taken in open war if he had not been informed of the fact.
