Only twenty miles north of Calgary in the little village of Airdrie, we fzund Dr. and Mrs EKdwards (formerly Miss Annie McCracken of Aberdeen). Dr. Edâ€" wards eoenducts a drug store in conâ€" nection, while Jim MeQracken, her lbrotber, for three years ran & succes$â€" ful general store here, sold out and ‘1 now operates a barber shop and pool Eroom, a lucsatiye business in any western town. Later on in Airdrie, we ram across Jim Warmington, anâ€" other old Durham boy, who is on a ranch a few miles west and likes the open life after four years of it. He may be home this winter. Mr and Mrs Jas. Ledingham, formerly of near Dornoch, we met in Cressfield, where he is manager of a general store. They are now ten years West ernets. While in Olds, Alberta we had opâ€" portunity to inspect one of the three Schools of Agriculture, which the Provincial Government has recently opened, the other two being at Claresâ€" holm and Vegreville. There are 53 young men in attendance here, of many nationalities, but all are being moalded to form one nationality and that the most eflicient type of Canaâ€" dian farmer. Alberta‘s new P rovincial Treasuser ‘ Hon. A. G. MacKay, M. P. P., now sits on the Cabinet berches instead of being in the cold shades of Opposâ€" ition as Ontario‘s liberal leader. We discovered him standing beside us at Red Deer station but had time for only a few words. Along with Preâ€" mier Sifton and other prominent libâ€" 'emls, he recently attended a banquet tendored another Ontario boy at Olds ‘Hon. Duncean Marshall, M.P.P. for Olds, now Minister of Agriculture for Alberta At Lacombe we were pleased to spend a few minutes with Geoa.*L. Hughes, for many years in S. F. Morlock‘s store, now buyer and manâ€" ager of the dry goods dept. of a large store there. â€" He often sees Fred Smith, who is teaching 12 miles from the town. Some 200 miles east of Edmonton, we found one of Saskatchewan‘s baby cities, North Battieford, one of the most enterprising as well, Despite the dull year, building operations were more liyely than in other large provincial centres and the 6, 500 presâ€" ent inhabitants look for 15,000 by 1915 or 1916. It is prettily located on the north shore of the North Saskâ€" atcbhewan, while across the river lies " the old town ‘‘ Battleford, with }about 1500 citizeus, They are poorly connected, only by one large bridge and that built for trade reasons we learn, some two miles east of North Battleford‘s main street, when there was a stroug rivalry. The distance is thus five miles, whereas a central . large bridge would shorten the route to about 1% to 2 miles An auto service is run between towns, Both places have upâ€"to date new post ofâ€" fices, N. Battlsford is rapidly develâ€" oping as a wholesale centre ard in |company with Cameron McIntosh, an old Dornoch boy, uow editor of the News, we visited their splendid new Collegiate. We a‘so were pleased to see here after four years absence, our cousin and namesake Peter Ramage, of Egremont, who has a homestead a few miles out and is engaged in carâ€" penter work during the summer. Toâ€" gether we visited in the old town Mr and Mrs Litster, who is C. N R. station agent. Mrs. L,, intends leav ing in a week or so to spend the winâ€" ter with her parents, Mr and Mrs Robt. Renwick, Dromore, Still homeward bound, we spent a half day in Saskatoon and on to Reâ€" gina. In Sherwood‘s large new dept. store here, Miss Pearl Wilson, formerâ€" ly in Grant‘s store, is one of the most suocessful salesladies and resides with her sister Ida, who is a graduate nurse here. Welater met with W.0. and Mrs Swanston, formerly of Egreâ€" mont and residing with them is his sister Miss Rlizabeth, former teacher in Holstein, now teaching in Strathâ€" cona school here. We regret she was absent at time of call.â€" Miss Oliv: Welish, formerly of Cleveland, a forâ€" mer visitor of the Brooks family when in Durham, we found at her post as librarian of the Children‘s dept. in the Public Library, While in Port Arthur we took opâ€" portunity to inspect the fish hatchery and found it interesting to examine the development aund processes of the eggs of whitefish and yvarious species of trout. We regret the supt. Mr McNab, an old:â€"friend of the Mcâ€" T ink THE DUOKHAM REVIEW Cormick family of town, was absent ea our call. In retarning a little more rapidly than previously anticipated, we much 1egret we were obliged to forego seeâ€" ing other friends we had before met, especially in Winnipeg, besides some we had hoped to visit. In bidding a paper goodâ€"bye to all we again acâ€" knowledge the kindness and hearty welcome extended by old friends and by many new ones, we have been O mecsghes. / Oe e T privileged to make. Our tour has left impressions not only of the greatâ€" ness of our country, its vast possibilâ€" ities for the future and its wonderful variety of natural features, but also has given us ample evidence of the enterprise of anmerous Ontario citiâ€" zens and of the kindness of heart of many from old South Grey. i Mr Alex MGillivray and son Reg* gie, from Chatsworth, visited Sun: day at Mrand Mrs John McGillivrayâ€" Mr Wom. Bailey lost a valuable colt one day last week. a We are pleased to ear that Mr Alex Hobkirk is improving these days aud hope he will soon be able to be around agzain. A young farmer arrived at the home of Mr and Mrs Thos, Reay to {J_:lp share the joys and sorrows of ife. Don‘t forg«t the Xmas tree on Monâ€" day, the 22nd ot Dec. Mr James Brunt bas purchased the farm owned by Mr Harry Brunt and hl:s been busy doing fall ploughing there. Owing to the inclement weather on Sunday, the annivesary services in the Methodist Church held that day were not so well atiended as this,| much looked for function generally is. ] Notwithstac ing thestorm and chilling «tmosphere a larae number turnml\ out at night and listened to a powerâ€"| ful discourse from Rev. Eddy of| Mt. Forest. § Rev. Mr. Eddy â€"»was recently on a trip to the Pacilie coast and was greatly inspired by the majestic appea) ance of the Rockies, In addition to his text, he took the mountains as a setting to his sermon and at times he would give descriptive references of the grandeur of these mountaing creating imaginary pictures in the minds of his auditors that were highâ€" ly pleasing . Commencing, the minister compat ed the immensity and majesty of ihe mountaius to the same virtues and qualities reposing in God â€" himself, asserting that the strength and power of the mighty hills were in proportion to the mightiuess of Him in heaven. Passing from swhis point he viewed the attitude of God towards man‘s sin. This evil be declared grew in a person as rapidly as the person willed it to do so untll sin became habitual. But God‘s attitude neyer compromised towards it, although he nevyer ceased loving the sinner, His next lesson he based on the broad borizon of the Pacific ocean afier passing the Rockies, The preacher declared tbhat unlike this scene the imind horizon of many people were narrow and they lacked sufficient perspective in the journey people were narrow i sufflcient perspective of life. The ascendiog feature of mountaing to heayen and their utter solitude were factors, he considered, that were strongly conduciye to prayer, He pleaded that communion â€"with the father might become more common and conducted in a more spiritual mood than hitherto. Great credit must be given to the : choir for the splendid part they took in the services of the day, Never have this body, about 25 strong, disâ€" played n ore stellar abil.ty than in the antberms and special selections renderâ€" ed on Sunday. Both in choral work and in part singing their work ranked high and praise was not stinted in their behalf by the congregation, They are an organization any chuich could be proud of.
