Reti.irns frQmirrp
to Germany
Mr. Adolph, Morenz, of Dashwood,
returned last week from a three
months' trip to Germany, his native
country, was an interesting caller at
the Times -Advocate, and in the pres-
ence of a few of air, Morenz' friends
he displayed- a number of interest -
Ing articles and told a very interest-
ing story of hie visit overseas.
Mr. Morenz crossed the Atlantic
on a British boat and on his return
he .same over on a< German liner,
He was the oldest elan on board and'{
became quite intimate witil the cap-
tain. In company with the youngest'
child on board, a little girl from
Finland, he hacl his picture taken.
Mr. Morenz enjoyed his trip both
ways, not being seasick at any time.
The present movie of travel is vastly
different from what . it was when he
came to Canada many year ago.
117r, Morenz found conditions
vastly changed in his native land,
although Ile was surprised to find
that most of the farmers still gath-
ered grain with the cradle. There
are no fences dividing the Yards,
the field crops being sown in long
stretches. Farm labor is plentiful,
wages being paid at the rate of
about fifteen dollars a month, while
girls receive frons six • to eight dol-
lars.
• Mr. Morenz brought with him a
number of interesting articles. He
had a brick of pressed coal a little
bigger than half the size of an ord-
inary brick. This he said would eq-
ual about two or three ordinary
sticks of wood. He also had a pair
of slippers which cost him 24 ,cents'
in our money and several beaded,
articles that cost about four times
as much i11 Canada to what Mr.
Morenz paid for them. He also had
a fine leather purse that cost slim
25 cents and in the purse he carried
the German coins now in circulation.
One of the things that impressed
Mr. Morenz was the tremendous
consumption of beer by the big ma-
jority of the German people. To
take away this, beer Mr. Morenz sai.d
would cause a revolution in Ger-
many. A german beer glass contains
about a. quart of liquid and Mr.
Morenz was amused one day to see
one man 'smoking a long pipe and
at the same time dringing the beer.'
The plan never took the pie from
his mouth and at the same time he
quaffed off two quarts of beer with
evident satisfaction. The Germans
are plain -living people and seen to
think that we, as Canadians, live
to high. • On board the .boat the
,.1Germans never; touched .'tlie pud,-
dings that were provided, preferriug.
meats and vegetables. Mr. Morenz
brought with hint a German loaf of
bread which resembles very much
a loaf of round home bread although
it was considerable heavier and Mr.
Morenz says lies heavy on the stom-
ach. The loaf, he said, would last
almost a week.
Mr, Morenz brougnt hone with
numerous post cards and pic-
tures of important places he visited,
among which were some wonderful
cathedrals built in early times. At
present 1:di'. Morenz says very few
people go to church. He showed us.
a number of family group snapshots
taken while he was there. He has
several brothers and sisters and
their families were photographed
along with 1tlr. Morenz. The sad
Part of parting with his brothers
and sisters was the fact that he never
expected to see thein again: Mr.
11loreccz has a son who fought in the
English army while his sister's son
was an officer in the German army.
He carries with him- a picture, of
both the boys. There is a none 'too
kindly feeling throughout the Em-
pire for the Americans or Canadians
altnough Mr. Morenz was hailed by
his relatives gas' the rich uncle from
Canada. He bought a suit of clothes
while there for which he paid six-
teen dollars. Germany, in territory,
is. the size of the province of Alberta
and has a population of about 62,-
000,000 people while Alberta has a
population of about three-quarters
of a million,
