Without intention, so to do, she has struck what the advertising men work so hard to acquire...the human interest angle. Quebec is natural, simple, lovable. In our race for a living we of the cities have reduced life to a system with every action in subordination to hours and minutes. But in Quebec the habitant' rises above the leash. He has something in himself which holds him to old ways. To family life, to the farm, to the horse and hand-plough; to the scythe, to cows. Wives and daugh- ters and boys of all ages lend a hand at everything. All the changes of the seasons fit in to the scheme of life. And yet there sems to be no particular scheme, no hurry. none of that driven feeling. No friction. And so when we get into Quebec we are sensible of a freedom of spirit. The shackles of “the drive” fall away as we come once more under the benison of the simple and the fundamental. Here by the road are the wayside Crosses common in Old France and once in Old England. The Mower IS abroad in the fields. The dogs drawing their little carts still hold the road. And nothing is more humanly appealing than these dog carts of the Quebec highway. The “Dog of Plan- ders" has won his way to publicity on the screen. but these “chiens” of Quebec have had no Jackie Coogan to do them justice. And yet what a part they play in the life of this great Province, far larger in extent than Flanders. How the dogs fill niches in the households, jobs long ago elim- inated from our scheme of life. are performed by the dog carts as a matter of course. in Quebec. Boys of :he family break their hand in from babyhood, harness- :ng, unharnessing, driving “le chien.” The boy that as \lz.

Pleasing entertainment was given at the meeting by new soon as he is big enough will have tne horses. in hand. “Deep meaning oft lies hid in Chlldlsh play down 1n Quebec. And yet the dog cart is not merely a means toward an end. As farm life is arranged in Quebec, the dog cart is no mere child’s toy, but part and parcel of French thrift. Boys sent an errand cover the miles in the dag cart. Wood to be brought from the distant woodlot on the mountainside is loaded into the little cart. With the aid of these “tiny horses and carts” small boys do this work quite easily, releasing their fathers and big brothers to men’s jobs at the plough or with the heavy scythe. Textile workers in the big mill below Montmorency Falls, living in Saint Gregoire and other villages nearby, have their dinner-pails brought to them by their small boys in dog carts and if you happen along this road at dinner-time it is to see perhaps as many as thirty or forty of these little chariots. The Speed attained of the dog is surprising. especially when homeward bound. Then, little M’sieu can hardly hold him in. . But yo 1 must not think ’tis only youth that these gay dogs of Quebec serve, their tails wagging, flying along with the babv in the cart and the family blood of boys and girls running helter skelter gathering framboise in their pails. What would the old. . . the oldcouples. the old women. do without their old dog and his little cart? But. I think perhaps one never realizes more. how much a part of every day life the dOg cart is, until you happen along by some wayside smithy and see the smith hard at work turning, twisting, heating, hammering the miniature axles and tires in the most matter of facr. manner, part of the day’s work, as much as shoeing a. horseâ€"Victoria Hayward. musi °al talent. herv. the young «-laug‘htnrs 01' Rm: and Mrs. Preston, who gave a sweetly-I‘emglorcd duct. th't-csllllwnts \wm» scrx'ml as usual.
