Diary Of Vagabon by Dorothy Barker There is one place I alvray. head for after I have checked in at the Hotel Vancouver. It is a ' .small shop on Itobso4 'Street with a mid-Victorian at mosphere "rode a courtly gentle! man as sole proprietor. 1111 to go there, not only to ptu;* chase my favorite blend of tea' but because 'it stirs memories and thoughts offar away places;; Memories of my first cups of tea, which i py grandmother called Bishop's Tea, This was a concotion of weak tea 'and warm milk seasoned to almost, honey sweetness. It was usually my reward for diligence after an hour's practice learning .may "stitches", while sitting, at my grandmother's knee on a little petit point footstool. ''cerning cltepptele, a different memory 'pattern forn.s, India, Ireland, England and the exotic Asiatic countries, where mail of his ing?rients originate, conjure up memories of tra. vele, books' thathave been en. joyed before ;.a; crackling fire, or. Of persons whose friendship Inas been .offered over a brew of strong tea. In . 1894, J.D. Murchie's father, John, stopped off in -Montreal after journeying from 'Scotland and found this land to his liking, He had some expert. ence in the old country in the tea blending business and when he learned there was a large number of British settlers on the 'west coast, decided that his success as a tea merchant could be assured in that area. At first the shop was situ. ated on Cardova Street. J.D. Murchie has never'knoWn any Or perhaps it would be the. memory of a press club party, in Calgary, Alberta, honoring a' small Japanese Soprano -- whose whose name I .have.forgotten - after ter performance as Madame Butterfly. It must have l,,, been this party that gave me my taste for hot green tea, ser. ved with ritual in tiny, handle. less, porcelain cups. - Talking with J.D. Murchie about the origin of his famous tea shop and the various types of tea which are specially blended for a large and die. Other career than the tea bust.. nese and for the past 25 years, his customers have found their way to the "new shop" at 1008 Robson Street. There, a ledger holds the reciPe s of many secret t blends handed down In .families from one generation to another and guarded carefully by the owner of Murchie's and ' his staff. • ASIS FOR NO. 10 Most popular, however, is Mr. Murchie's own blend which is simply labeledMurchie'sNo. 10 Blend. It contains a delicate .balance of eight different teas and, when brewed, if you watch carefully you' might even see bits. of jasmine blossoms float` ing in your cup. Tea blending is a science. Often Mr. Murchie, who is a bachelor, told me it is diffi. cult to 'find the right brands for a flavor desired. He does . all his own buying with the as• sistance of two or three agents TRAIN TO TORONTO 3 Ask about convenient departure in the Asiatic countries, Ceylon and India. With him is his niece, Miss Marion Frost, who has learned from her uncle many of the intricacies of tea blending din and may prove tobe ,. the one who will carry on the Murchie tradition. . Statistically, it was inter: eating to learn that apoundof - tea makes at least 240 cups while only 60 cos of coffee can be made from a poundof ground bean~. • 'Tea,',. said Mr. Murchie, "is the world's best and cheapest beverage"'. Murchie's sell coffee, even instant coffee. They sell tea canisters too, and here and there on the shop's shelves one 'can find teapots and small china coffee mills that make attrae• tive gift items. These, however, are only a concession which Mr. Murchie yields to the modern shopping trend. His business is tea, and what a perfect brew any one of the Murchie blends make! and return times For information, phone the local CN Passenger Sales Office CANADIAN, NATIONAL 40.65 GREAT BUVIN HOMELITE CHAIN SAWS!- - .
