.At 9.15 Saturday eight our train
pulled out of Winnipeg arnidet the
cheers of the party, heartily lespnuded
to by the many who came to see the.
scribes and their ladies uff. We were
all ready for aur control table berths
after the busy but enjoyable time
spent in the 'Peg and required no
rocking to be epeedlly wooed by Mor

When Sunday morning dawned we
bad said Goodbye to the fertile Plaine
of Manitoba and were steaming along.
0.45 or 50miles, art hour across the
prolific prairlea 'of Saskatchewan,
heading for the well known .city of
Saskatoon, 475 miles distant Pram'
Winnipeg, After doing full justice to
'n t diol 1 .cat'
the excellent rnenn 1 the r g ,
we arrived at 11.30 a, In. in the fine
city of Sakatoon, with its population
of 30,000 and bearing many evideneea
of a newel:w'Otl4 City and Laid Out on
roostpretentious prOpOrtiOtle. It is
well located on the Saskatchewan
river and is deeltned to become a
renter of greater importance before
many years.
We had ltaiilly stepped from the
platform of St. Jerome car before we.
were greeted by R. W, and Mrs.
Aloore (the latter being better known
to Brusselites ae Miss Nettie Brown
of other days.) Altera drive
through the principal streets we
reached the eon]rol table home of our
host and hostess. which they recent-
ly purchased, and were soon enjoying
their hospitality at a well ladened
dinner table, intPrapered by many a
query and answer. Galled Mrs. Ib-
bertsun (nee Mise Pearle Sharpe) up
on the telephone to enquire if they
would rent their home and when ehe
pressed for the name cif the speaker
and we had to confess we were THE
13nuss 1,.s Posse, she immediately
wanted to make a date, Mr. and
f
SAMoore gave ll4 !he full benefit
of

enjoyed tour of this well favored
place we all went to Dr. Ibberston's
for tea and a bogy few hours chattiug
over (says that are past, and the pros-
pects of time to come. In the even-
ing we attended Knox church and
heard a gond sermon. Mre. Ibberstwu
is one nI the valued altos in a com-
petent choir. Met Mrs. Jas. Ireland,
formerly of Brussels, who is also a
member of the choir and she and her
husband residents of Saskatoon fur
years. Our party were guests of the
13oarcl of -Trade and after au auto
drive were taken to the Saskatoon
Club fur refreshments and words of
welcome from the city authoritiesand
the Editor of the well known Star-
Phoeuix daily newspaper, whose of-
fine and equipment are journalistic
genie not often met with even on an
extended holiday trip. The Saskatoon
folk made us feel very much at home
but like many another experience in
life ends all too quickly and when our
engine tooted our leave-taking at 9.30
p. LLL. our company was a unit In eat-
ing it a day full of good things.
Edm >ntnn lovas our next stop, 328
miles Nether West. The route took

erable of it ranches. thriving towns
and villages, few of which we tarried
at hilt we remember Melville and

containing populations of about 1500

to sample packages and bottles of
mineral water. Lake le 3 miles distant I

Oliver and Mrs. Smith and children,
now visiting in Brussels, own valu-
able farm property close by Watrous.
Wainright is the site of the famous
Buffalo park covering 160 square miles
or approximately 100,000 acres, the
largest fenced park in the world.
Fence ie 7 feet high and of woven
wire. There are over 3,500 head of
buff do in the park now. Cattalo a
cross between a cow and buffalo are
also found there. Moose,elk, deer
and antelope are preserved in the
park.
At 0 30.a. in, Monday morning our
eyes were gladdened by the sight of
Alberta's capital in all its glory and
pictureequene.s, the nrginal. Hudson
J3ay, fort affording a site for the im-
posing :Perliauieitt Buildings. Ed -
1000100's population is said to be
about 0-0,000. Our gond friend Bar-
rieter Ilea, an old aleKillop township
boy, who has more than made good in
Alberta, took charge of us at the de-
pot tad ens0onsing us in his Cadillac
car, and inviting our old friends Mrs.
Arthur Smith and Nurse Bailey, for-
merly of Bi'ueeeis, to accompany us,
we sped through:the-businees and resi-
dential sections, visited the parks,
schonls, fine parliament buildings,
called at our chaufirur's home, view-
ed the city from the top of the block
in which Mr. Rea's office is located
and landed et the home of Druggist
Harry Dickson, (a resident of our
horse town and a graduate from the
L T, Pepper, dreg store, now owned
by J. Fax) and family where a cor-
dial welcome was accorded and an
extra good dinner,for which the
bracing drive had prepared us, was
rnuch enjoyed. On our morning hike
we visited pne of the city sthools and
introduced by Mr. Ilea, who is chair-
man of the Board of Education, was
given tete unexpected honor of ad-
dreeeing a few words to the pupils,
whom gond style stood and saluted
at our entrance ttnd exit. Had also
the pleasure of a call at the Methodist
Parsonage at the Highiands, where
we met Mrs. (Rev.) G. 11. Cobbledick,
(the rev, gentleman being absent et

As all things terrestrial must come to
an end so did this banquet and our
friend Rea, whose kindness w111 never
be forgotten, motored us to the depot
where we bade farewell to a bunch of
old time friends whom we were glad
10 meet and just as sorry to part with.

(To be continued)
To change the order of affairs Inc
program called for a stop -over of 84
hours at the well known Jasper Park,
be autifully located in the midst of
the Rocky mountains. By autos and
saddle ponies the visitors made the
trip to Maligne Canyon, Pyramid
Lake and other points of high alti-
tudes, luncheon being served in the
Park when buffalo steaks were served.
&c. The peaks rise over 8,000 feet
above sea level and on their brow is
perpetual snow. The now historic
mountain, called after the martyred
Edith Cavell, rears its bead in majes-
tic splendor here to a height of 11033
feet. Aglacier, with arms extended
in the farm of a cross, clings to its
slope. In all the world there is prob-
ably no other inemorial so simply
grand to an humble nurse who fell
under a hail of bullets from a Ger-
man firing squad in Belgium. 4,000
square miles are included in Jasper
Park and a beautiful, quaint town
site hoe been laid out by the Govern-
ment in the valley at the base of
Pyramid mountain, close to the en-
trance of the Yellowhead Pass, at the
confluence of the Miette and Atha-
basca rivers. Scenery about Jasper
Park is beautiful and well worthy of a
visit. We had no expectation of find-
ing any- person we knew at Jasper
Park but Mrs. W. Huggin, formerly -
Miss Wright, of Jamestown, Ont.,
sought us out and we enjoyed a social
half hour with she and her husband,
who is an old Winghamite, and holds
a good position on the railway there.
Mrs. Huggin is a cousin to Jno.
Wright, and Mrs. Benson Wheeler,
Brussels,
A run of 2i hours brought our train
to Mount Robson where we were glad
to tarry for a half hour from 7 to 730
p. m. and revel in the wonderful
mountain sights. This mountain is
the highest and Most magnificent
peak in the Canadian Rockies and
your tape line would show rte height
to be 13008 feet if you tneasnred it. It
is a beautifully scenic spot located in
British Columbia. The sunset we caw
there was a real halo of glory, with
its glaciers, sheets of snow, lake and
river scenery as background.
We were to have arrived at Kam-
loops, 250 miles from 'Vancouver,
Wednesday morning, June 8th, but a
wash-out on the line, owing to the
melting mountain snow, causing
freshets, we were held up at Blue
River, a divisional point, all nigh,
not getting away until 10 a. m. next
morning when repairs were made at
the bridges. Time was enjoyably
spent, after breakfast, in base ball,
foot races, photography and writing
picture post cards. Got to Kamloops
in the afternoon where' we remained
for an hour or so, viewing the fine
town and automobiling, Kamloops is
located atm junction of the North and
South branches of the Thompson river
and ie a tidy town of over 5,000.
Town owns its utilities and has a
Government maintained sanitarium
for people suffering from pulmonary
trouble. Climate is fine. Thompson
valley is beautiful. Left Kamloops
about p. m. for Vancouver.
,From Lytton to Vancouver, a dis-
tance of 158 miles, we followed the
valley of the Frasier river, which is
790 miles long and drains an area of
nearly 92,000 square miles. Chilli -
week is a progressive town en route
with an industrious population of
some :8000 souls, lumbering, cement
manufacture, &e., affording avenues
for labor.

The picnic held Friday, June 24111,
at Walton branch of the U. h`. 0, was
a most successful affair front every
point of view, 1'lhe large crowd
thoroughly enjoyed the program and
keen interest was shown in the ad-
dresses of the various speakere, The
chairman, A. ,11oGaviu, after giving
a abort outline of the purpose for
which the picnic wee held, called upon
John King who bad been nominated
by the 17. F. O. to contest this riding
for the Federal House.
Mr. King did not cast illumination
on the political situation but exhorted
them to extend the ideas as have been
expressed from 17. F. 0. platforms
since that organizations came into be-
ing. He firmly relieved in a com-
munity spirit, and thought the same
spirit, should be extended to nations
as well. He said the U. P, 0. was a
separate and district political body
and embodied
in its tanks the
