The Dominion and Atlantic Railway pregented each of us with a handsome illustrated book, descriptive of the "Land of Evangeline." They also fed us with apples and pears. ' After we had seen the promised land from "Look-off" we visited Grand Pre, and saw the pretty Memorial Church, now a Museum.

All is so peacful now, and the tragedy of the expulsion of the Acadians is nothing but a memory. In the Memorial Park The well that used to supply water to the Acadian villagers is still there, but its well sweep has the end of the pole sunk into the ground, and there is a fine collection of dank lichen and moss on the well stones that form the curb. 'No one drinks of the coolwaters. Grand Pre is the birthplace of Sir Robert Borden, and we were shown his un- pretentious home nestled among the trees. The villages gave greater evidence of prosperity than the farms. The homes are surprisingly well kept, and in some of the larger towns there are small estates with splendid buildings and well designed grounds and gardens. In spite of the great abund- ance of stone, we did not see one stone house, and brick houses are just as scarce. It is indeed a wooden country down there. One style of building is very common--the shingled house or barn. Not only do they shingle the roof, but the walls are shingle cover- ed. Something of the appearance of bricks is thus secured. It is hard to tell what the durability of this covering is, but from a passing view, it looked as though the shingling idea had real building value at small cost. We were a bit late to see the best flowers, and Nova Scotia had suffered from the prevailing drought as we did in Ontario. But in some of the villages we saw glorious voung hydrangea trees, with blooms that would be the envy of any flower lover. Upon return to Halifax, the Halifax Board of Trade had pro- vided for our pleasure a band concert in the Halifax Public Gar- dens. These Gardens cover seventeen acres, and are said to be among the finest on the continent. Our view of the Park was very slight. The day had been crowded, and that night we slept without rocking. Tuesday was a fine day. They were all fine days in Halifax that week. The only rain we saw was on the following Sunday morning, when the weather must have wept because we were go- ing to leave. The delegates went to their business session, and the ladies went out shopping on Tuesday. They did not find the mad rush that is indicative of the Queen City. Shopping is much more leisurely in Halifax. For that matter everything seems to bet more leisurely. You don't have to stop, look and listen, and make a dash for it at every corner. The fact is that there is something homey about Halifax, and after an absence of a few days we returned on a Saturday evening to find the streets crowded much as our own streets are crowded in our towns and small cities. One of the most delightfully personal courtesies extended to the delegates was the presentation of a beautifully illustrated brochure and booklet, descriptive of Halifax Harbour. This specially prepared edition bore the name of each delegate on the presentation page--*"Presented to Samuel Farmer by the Halifax Commissioners with their compliments and best wishes for an enjoyable and profitable visit to Halifax, Canada," was. the in- scription on the copy given to the Editor of the Port Perry Star and all the other delegates were similarly treated. Evidently the Harbour Commissioners meant what they said, for they took us for a delightful sail through the Harbour. This excursion was arranged jointly by the Dartmouth Ferry Commis- sion, the Halifax Board of Trade, and the City of Halifax. Halifax Harbour is and will be the foundation of the greatness of the City of Halifax. The port is considered the.third among the ports of the world, and during the Great War it played an im- portant part as a haven for Allied shipping. In that wonderful harbour they were safe, and its ten square mikes were well filled with ocean liners upon that occasion. ! During the war an attempt was made to wreck the harbour facilities but although the damage inflicted was very great, and the loss of life much worse than was generally understood, the perpetrators of the deed fell short of their purpose. Had it not been for the natural curiosity of humanity, the loss of life would have been comparatively small; but hundreds of people went to see the ship that caught fire after the collision. There was an explosion, and hundreds were killed. But Halifax people do not talk of that tragedy, except when an occasional survivor recalls the loss of his loved ones. One man said that his wife phoned to him after he had left for business. She was frightened, and when he reached home, he found that his wife and three children had been killed. "War is hell." In all the advertising of Halifax Harbour one main feature is stressed--""Always open to all shipping." The facilities for load- ing grain consist of six conveyor belts, each being capable of carrying grain at the rate of 12,000.to 15,000 bushels per hour. An automatic car dumper unloads six railway ¢ars of 2,000 to 2,500 bushels each an hour; and two tack pits with power shovels, unload five cars per hour." There. is elevator accommodation for 2,200,000 bushels of grain. There are endless other figures and facts. If you are inter- ested especially in a commercial way, the Harbour Commission will gladly supply you with all the facts. To most of us the charm of the excursion was the beauty of the scenery. The coast of the Harbour is 'rugged, and has much to remind one of the historic-interest. One of the most romantic monuments is the square Memorial Tower on the shore of the North West arm of the Harbour. We managed to get a number of fine snap shots, and wish that cuts did not cost so much, so that our readers might share the beauty of the scenery with us. Upon our return to the hotel, another treat awainted us. After supper, a musical entertainment and moving pictures were given in the ballroom of the Nova Scotian.Hotel...
