"Will close with love from your son We are about as far advanced in trainâ€" ing as we can go and the boys are anxiousâ€" ly waiting for the word to go and help win the war. We will all be well pleased when it is over and we are back again with the friends who are so patiently awaiting our return. | We just got in from a three days bivouac |and had a good time although it rained both nights we were out but we don‘t mind a little thing like a wet night. We gathered ferns for a bed and with the aid of a few sticks and pieces of string made a good comfortable tent with our rubber sheets. There is one thing about a soldier n>matter where he is or what the corâ€" ditions are he can make himself comfortâ€" able and is always happy. We «went through a bog at dawn one morning and it was fine to see the ones ahead go sprawlâ€" ing through the mud, some went to their knees, some fell in the mud and when they got over they were a dirty looking bunch but no one minded it. We had to laugh going across, we at the ones ahead and when they got across they had the laugh on us but as Red Cameron udys this is the life and the only thing to do is to pack all your troubles in your old kit hag and smile, smile, smile. | Business Men are Interested. _ We have had a lot of rain lately and the roads are awfully muddy. We were out on a route march one day and came to a particularly muddy place in the road. Some of the boys noticed an officer‘s hat floating down the middle of the road and followed it down about a quarter of a mile when they came to a slight rise in the road and an officer on horse back came out of the mud ! ! ‘ _ While we were in quarantine I received a box of good things from the ladies of the Mulock Red Cross workers whichX fully appreciated and desire to express my sincere thanks for their kindness in reâ€" membering an o‘d Mulock boy. It was a great surprise as well as a great pleasure to myself and the five other boys who were in my tent. Although they did not know the senders they asked me to thank the ladies who sent it, for as you know a box always goes the rounds when one arâ€" From Bentinck Boy inEngland| _ The Quebec Bridge [South arey 4TH LINE GLENELG Witley Camp, Sept. 8th, mr.f . (By Rev. D;TINM) Pte. D. D. McCallum, C Coy., 160 Batt., Witley Camp. TJBR and daughter cess. | Ks W.F. > Quebec, Sept 20th, 1917. )| â€"It is difficult to get anything like an | adequate idea of the immensity of the | structure. One merely looking at it can ; hardly realize that the span before him | actually reaches over 1800 ieet of the | river. Only a view of its entrtnce from |a point near enough to see it will conâ€" |vince tne doubter that it carries a double |railway track, tracks for electric cars. a driving road and two passenger walks. | The feelings awakened by the sight of it | are those of sublimity and reverence. There is kindled indeed something of the sense of awe. Such an emotion was most natural in view of raising the centre span with all the dread conâ€" sequences that would attend its fall. With singular appropriateness Father McGuire of the church at Sillery when the span was constructed, had an early morning service of prayer for the sucâ€" cess of the work and a celebration of mass for those of his own communion. By this service he linked the emotions stirred by the event with the religious experiences with which they are akin. The bridge itseif seems as if possessed. with the" spirit of religion, for it‘s misâ€" sion is that of helpfuiness. Solidiy basâ€" ed upon the nether rock it reaches out | its strong and kindly arms to bear in safety the traveller and all his possessâ€" ion across the mighty flood, ‘I What gain it will bring to Quebeo or |â€" the country at large time alone will tell. Toâ€"day we rejoice that those who planâ€" ned the work and those who toiled with their best skill to complete it had their f labour and sacrifice crowned with sucâ€"| The bridge is truly a wonderful piece of work, The raising the centre span weighing some 5000 tons by seventyâ€"six hoists to a height of 152 feet, was no small task. This however was less difâ€" ficult than the constructing of the imâ€" mense cantilevers with strength suffiâ€" cient to enable them to support the centre structure and all the traffic it will be called to bear at the end of arms that reach out some six hundred feet from their only support, Perhaps the best commendation an unskilled onlookâ€" er can give to the work is to say that it is so well proportioned that the carryâ€" ing of the load seems to be so perfectly natural that it does not awaken the least surprise. | _ It was at first hoped that the bridge would be ready for traffic as soon as the other parts of the road were constructed but the disaster of 1907 and the lesser accident of last year delayed the work till the present time. Prior to the raiging of the span whispers were curâ€" rent that certain omens had been obâ€" served by Indians and other dealers in the mysteries of the future that boded ill for the success of the undertaking. No doubt the previous failures made the engineers doubly careful and in the final effort skill and workmanship won the day thus testifying that we are in a world when law and order reign and that it is of more importance to seek a good foundation to build according tothe plumbline and to use honest work and trusty materials than to trouble with the motions of birds or the visions of astrologers. Away in the fifties of last century men of vision had selected the same spot as a suitable place for bridging the river. Plans were then made for a suspension bridge but the erecting of the Victoria bridge at Montreal, for the time, put the scheme out of mind. The building of a bridge here, though delayed was not abandoned. When the constructing of the Transcontinental railway became the policy of the government the bridge was an integral part of the scheme. By the route of the Transcontinental, Quebec is brought sixty miles nearer Winnipeg than Montreal is.by her presâ€" ent railway connection, and by the bridge across the St Lawrence Halifax is brought two hundred miles nearer Winnipeg than it is at present. "There" at Pricevilie Fair No doubt this joy had a close connecâ€" tion with the hope of material gain to come through the opening up of a new avenue of communication, yet the imâ€" mediate occasion of its outburst was due less to the thought of profit than to the delight of seeing the successful compleâ€" tien of a task that had called forth such marvellous skili in its design and such patience and preseverance in its execuâ€" tion. The story of how the company and its engineers held fast by their plans and purpose in the face of reverse after reverse will be told with pride to our children‘s chiidren. UE SapPid i t ntinin ic t sintnnisiints insd se d When the connecting section of the bridge was duly placed in position there was no mistaking of the signs of joy everywhere expressed. The catastrophe of last year was marked by asilence that was oppressive. With the snccess toâ€" day the whole city became vocal, Bells rang. sirens shrieked, flags were unfurl, ed and talk and laughter prociaimed the gladness that everywhere was felt. ’ This afternoen the north and south banks of the St Lawrence were linked together by the lifting of the centre span and placing it in the innerâ€" arms of the two cantiâ€"levers which has so long been ] outstretched to welcome the connection, e qo q 2 aeaaatmmmmatenmmmmmemmnmendonmmmmmmmspemmmentemmmee ige South Grey Sunday School Associntion DRS.
