Thee with sweetness fills the
breast."
The Rev. E. J. B, Harrison
introduced the special speaker,
Rev, George Hamilton, former-
ly of Old Crow Mission, Yu-
kon, who was a classmate at
Huron College.
Mrs. Hamilton is a registered
nurse and they have two small

not a patient should! be flown
out, to hospital or a doctor
flown in.
The speaker, a dedicated and
enlightened young man, kept
his listeners' interest through-
out his address, He showed pic-
tures and examples of beautiful
bead work in the form of a
stole •and a frontal completely
hand made by the Indians.
Contrary to popular belief,
his parishioners were all Arctic
Indians, not Eskimo,
Describing the Indians, he
said, "The women do all the
work while the men hunt, trap
and fish." Those same women
were devoted church members
and WA workers who put God
first, the Queen second and
then the Bishop, in their way
of life."
Continuing, Mr. Hamilton
mentioned the two seasons —
summer and winter with temp-
eratures as' low as 84 degrees
below.
In November, Rev. and Mrs.
G. Hamilton and two children
go up to Fort Simpson, Dio-
cese of the Arctic, 'to continue
their missionary work among
the Indians.
Mrs. R. H. F. Gairdner th-
anked the speaker and wished
him "God Speed."

anked the Bayfield branch for

Mr. and Mrs. LeRoy Poth
returned home on Thursday af-
ter a trip around Lake Huron
and Lake Superior (including
points west). They are most
enthusiastic about this trip in
the autumn to view the colour-
ing and varied scenery.
They left Bayfield on Wed-
nesday, October 11. The leaves
this side of Parry Sound were
brilliant. They spent the first
night in a motel at Sault Site
Marie; accommodation was at
a premium as this route around
Lake Superior is being well ad-
vertised and there was a con-
vention at the Soo.
The scenery on the Trans-
Canada Highway from Sault
Ste Marie to Wawa, with the
trees of flaming red, crimson,
yellow, orange, green and' gl-
impses sometimes of panoramas
of blue water and islands and
huge rock cuts, was breath-
taking.
There are excellent observa-
tion points with signs far- en-
ough ahead to give one an op-
portunity to slow down and
turn off the highway.
Hunters and fishermen were
plentiful, they observed, and
Kenora seemingly as busy as in
the summer tourist season.
There was' a heavy frost that
night.
The Poths found the wind
rather keen in Winnipeg but
the old prairie sun came out
and the temperature soared
to the high seventies over the
weekend.
In Winnipeg they visited Mr.
ad Mrs. James Maitland (form-
erly Mary Jean Moorhouse)
and went to see their son Pet-
er Maitland at Dynevor School
for Boys. This is for students
who wish. to exert themselves
mentally, spiritually and phy-
sically. Mrs. Poth was most en-
thusiastic about 'the curriculum.
It is operated by St. John's
Cathedral and housed in an old
rectory about 30 miles from
Winnipeg. (It is featured in the
Star Weekly, October 28). A
training incident last slimmer
was the boys being taken to
The Pas and they had to row
themselves back 500 miles and
live on hardtack. Fathers of
the boys on vacation accomp-
anied them and so the trip
could only 'take a certain time.
One night they rowed all night
taking turns at the oars while

Rambling With Lucy
(<imcv WQQ*)
Did you ever deal with a tempergtental chimney?
is more .caprieionS than a wayward child; more mune,
-dieta.ble than a woman; and a provocator of language
which should not. be used in polite society 1
The October days have been for the .mpst part so
bright and warm that there has been the need' of only
the odd furnace fire at "The Hut", One evening last
week the Master at "The Hut" came home about' holf-
paat five, Lucy decided that there should be a fire lighted
in the furnace. He dashed outside first to pick some
green beans for dinner and get the potatoes on to cook.
Then he went down cellar,
For the moment, he forgot the practice of stuffing
lighted paper into the clean-out at the base of the chimney
to warm it up first. He set the fire with old cedar shingles,
paper and wood, and put the match to the paper. Horrors!
The smoke curled' around and came out the furnace door
so he shut it, Then he bethought himself of the clean-out
at the bottom of the chimney, but the smoke belched out
in his face.
So he turned the grates over in an effort to get a
circulation of air. No flame could be seen but smoke
poured out around the dbor and every crevice. By this
time it was drifting around like clouds upstairs. (How
it ever got into the hot air ducts is a mystery).
At last the Master could stand it no longer. He opened
the cellar window and came up gasping for air. The tears
from his eyes streaked down his' smoke-grimed face like
little rivulets — well, almost that bad! He wrapped the
Matron (Lucy graduated from a bride to a matron on
October 15) in a mohair throw, opened all the doors and
windows, and went outside.
Lucy thought it was to clear his lungs, but it was
to see if smoke were coming out the chimney! After a
tantalizing length of time, during which Lucy sat wonder-
ing what could be wrong, the Master returned, He announc,
ed that it was drawing now — a, tiy little wisp of smoke
had curled up and then it grew stronger — and more black!
So down cellar again he went, and opened /the furnace
door. Soon the smoke was sucked up the chimney from
the basement.
But although the smoke finally blew outside from
the main floor, and /the doors and' windows could be closed
one was' continually getting a whiff of Smoke from some-
thing. (For a time at least, smoked herring will not be
on the menu at "The Hut".) And, yes, it has happened'.
After putting up with that chimney and its whims for
15 years, the extra length of tile and brick needed to
correct the malady caused by an east wind, Lucy has been,
told, is being added this week.
The Master has no notion of being smoked out of
"The Hut" a second time.
