Fish held the rapt a‘tention of his audience. . His talk strongly brought out the peril to Canada of allowing bilingualism to spread. He had been an Orangeman for 20 years, been speaking for 5 years, and stated that if the R. C. Chnrch would keep out of politics, the Orange Association would cease activities. One of the first things taught Orangemen is to keep peace with R. C. people. A few of his points were ; Many Frenchâ€"Canadians had migrated to Ontario from Quebec to get away from the parish system, where in Quebec many places oneâ€"fifth the size of Durham had churches worth $50,000 to $100,000 ; once these immigrants seemed the balance of balance of power in a school section, they had the French languafi and â€" religi services taught in the public school, v}m the Govt. had now done away with by {:nki::g English the only language ; the Frenchâ€"Canadians were urged to raise Bilingualism and Imperialism GILLIESâ€" McCREERY June Weddings.
