We met many fine people dur- 'ing' our yearly visits, the Guppys, tthe Goddards and others, but this little story is about another fam- ily, the McAnthurs, with just a 'little glance at John and his wife, "who operate the fine Amich Lodge and Motel, and a closer and more \ complete look at brother Bill Mc- \ Arthur, who we think, has one of the most interesting jobs in the * district. For, while the beauty of Tema- "vami, its lakes and forests, its "hunting and fishing, were there .to attract visitors, it is the cheer- | ful. and efficient service of the | dikes of Bill that keeps people coming back, year after year. | > When Bill was first in the dis- , - trict, the chief, and perhaps; only means of travel around the lakes was by canoe, and a pleasant way 'it was, but the popularity of the faster, noisier power boat changed the picture, somewhiat, and it was | 'in this field that Bill started his : work, and at which he has spent an important pant of his life. «Liquid fuel, of sorts, was a nec- essity for many years before the coming: of the boats and motors, oil for the lamps of Temagami, fuel for »stoves,: and he; has been connected, with the oil business for the past 34 years: ».-There was' a slight break in Bill's 'Temagami residence re- cord while he served his country ... five years in England and on the continent, but he returned as soon as demobilized. He was the first to see the growing need for a boat service to all points of the Lake and he brought one, compiete with tanks from Bracebridge. Some scoffed at the idea, and the. first two years of building the business would have discourag- ed a less determined man. But more and more cottagers bought boats, and more and' more signal- led Bill for their gas and oil, and over the years the cottagers 'have learned to depend on 'him, for their fuel and for other things as well. i ~"As we said, the first years were tough, and while Bill made three trips weekly to maintain contact, he also returned frequently with part of his load. Now it takes seven trips.a week, and the empty boat' rides high and empty when he 'returns late in the evening.

He has also made many mercy trips to pick up sick and injured who were given first aid treat- ment by. sister-in-law Mrs. John McArthur.
