A. LONG HIEN!
•
A few days. ago Jack Gdbbings and
Paul Hovey, two young men of Clin-
ton, returned from their hike,- They
set out, on June 28th, with the weit-
ern coast as their goal,
Jack and Paul.etruek out first for
Northern Ontario and went as far'
north' -as Heacist, which is within one
hundred and fifty utiles of James
Bay-. While in the north they des -
ended' the
es-cended'the International •Ni'ckle and
Hollinger. Geld Mines. It was a new
experience to.. go down ,a mile under
the surface of the •earth. Then the
hikers returned south r n d sou h as .far as
North Bay and then struok westward
to Sault Ste. Marie.- There they
crossed into Michigan, After cros-
sing through the northern sections of
Michigan and Minnesota they turned
north. again to Canada, Reaching
Winnipeg they .started west through
the Prairie Provinces to Edmonton.
Both the young men ware loud in
their praises '.of the Canadian Rock -
les,. Mount Robson, the highest
peak in the Canadian Rockies pre-
sented an impressive appearance to
the hikers. One of the glorious
sights in the Roeldes is the "meeting
of the waters" of the Upper and Low-
er Thompson rivers. The spectator
stands on the railroad ridge and
gazes thousands of feet below on the
rushing, whirling waters in the deep -
cut chasm. Naturally they rested
when they arrived at Vancouver, the
Gateway to the East. Here the
young men had their first swim in
ocean water,.. in the Pacific. They
also saw several huge Ocean Liners
among which were the Orient and
the Empress of Asia.
Tha young men turned southward
and crossed again into the United
States. Near Seattle is a mighty
struoture of a bridge, hundreds of
feet above the bed of an empty river.
This is supposed to be the deepest
canyon spanned by a bridge.
Following .the Ridge Back moun-
tain range clown the coast, the hikers
finally reached the stretch of high-
way vihich runs along the sides of
the Mountains from four to five
thousand feet above sea level, There
was no need to go hungry for fruit,
great vineyards and orange groves
were on, every side.
When they reached Los Angeles
they parted fora few days, Jack
having relatives in Los Angeles and
Paul having soma in Riverside. Dur-
ing their stay in Los Angeles and
the near -by cities they saw many im-
pressive sights. Near Los Angeles
they spent the night on a mountain-
top and awoke to find the cloud's be-
neath them. When the vision is
clear, sixteen cities may be counted
in the surrounding community. There
is also situated near Los Angeles the
Groat Western Air Port. Giant
planes carrying from forty to fifty
passengers descended or' rose from
the cemented field. Just as one i
pays a visit to Monte Carlo in South-
ern France, so the young nen visited
Agua Caliente which is quickly be-
coming as popular as the notorious
Monte Carlo. At one table tlhere,
goldis the only currency used in
gambling.
A visit to California would hot he
complete without to visit to Holly-
wood. In the great filet metropolis
the young men visited the Chinese
Theatre where a large number of the
"opening nights" are held. The
homes of the movie stars were quite
attractive, some of the homes they
remembered seeing belonged to
Douglas Fairbanks, Charlie Chaplin
and Will Rogers.
Deciding that they had time to go
farther south Jack and Paul travel-
led into Mexico. At this ,point
in their wanderings some one gently
but firmly relieved them of their
financial woreies. Penniless they
returned to Los Angeles and calculated
h ow far they had
gone. 'The •.-mileage amounted to
nine thousand. They now decided to
head' for Ontario. At the border of
California, their packs were closely
inspected. Everyone goingein or oet
of California are watched closely,
according ,to Jack and Paul. -
?I'hey struck out through Arizona
across the Mojave desert, visited
Needles, the hottest town existing.
It was only 125 in the shade, if there
is any, shade there. Death Valley,
just as gruesome ,as its naane was al-
so .visited. There, the temperature
hovers around 150. In Colorado there
is a certain little stream of water
.supposed to contain geld. Jack and
Panni spent a day panning for it but
luck was not with them.
In telling of the wonders and beau-
ties of the painted desert Paul and
Tack vied with one another. In fact
it is almost impossible to describe
it. The sands and roaks are of bite
colours of the rainbow, The . sight'
roust 'have been magnificent! An-
other unforgeta le sight to them wass
the petrified fo11eet in Arizona, As
a matter of •eourse they felleWed the
Grand;Canyon which everyone knows
is in Colorado and which everyone
visits who travels to the Western
Coast in the States.
You maycomplain of -your rough
roads, but according to Paul and
Jack those •of which, we might com-
plain in Ontario are highways 0010 -
pared to those in Kansas. Laughing-
ly they . said that they travelled'
"ranghly"speaking several thousand
miles in Kansas, the centre of the
corn belt in the United States. Leav-
ing Kansas .they passed through M'is-
some, Iowa. and Indiana,nneventfully
until they reached Chiefly. In the
Windy City they were `relieved se-
cretly of their packs which contain-
ed a few,exsgnal bgs
eton •in • and
P g
several souvenirs among.; which were
chunks of the petrified forest. •
Front Chicago they moved on to
Detroit. Here they were requested
to be iilterviewd over' the radio sta-
tion WJR., The .young Men who had
submitted to being held up' in Mexico
were shy of the 'demon "mike." They.
refused to tell of . their :travels and
hurried on home.' The. ' young men
assume that they eavered twelve
thousand • miles through five pro-
vinces of Canada and nineteen States
in the Union. This is no small en-
dertalring: when we realize that
Canada in all its, breadth stretches
six thousand miles frown coast to
coast.
They walked on foot, for the most
part, 'wearing running ehoos. Per-
haps for days they wld net re-
ceive a lift and they slept wherever
night overtook ahem. • Imagine their
delight to snuggle down lietween soft
clean' sheets in a luxurious bed after
nine weelcs of the great open spaces.
noir proud boast is that they
slept in beds only three times from
the time they left Clinton until they
returned home. The _husky young
hikers do not appear a bit the worse
for their nine weeks hike. Besides
a •healthy coat of tan they have a
memory that will last thein a life
time.

DIES SUDDENLY
?The account of the death ofArchl-
hald Weir, taken from the London
Free Press, may be of interest to
some of our readers;
"Archibald Weir, ICC., one of the
oldest andmost respected members
o£ the legal profession In Western
Ontario, died at his home in this
eity very suddenly this morning at
2 o'clock. " He retired to bed appar-
ently in his normal good health. His
age was 75 years and he had prac-
tiised law in this .city since 1893, up
to the time of his death.
Ile was widely known and recog-
nized as possessing a profound know-
ledge of the profession to which.he
was passionately devoted. Since he
was called to the bar, 41 years ago,
he had not been known to take a
holiday, and itis prnfessionat and ac-
ademic mind was as keenly alert as
that of a man in his prime. • He had
attended the office as usual on Sat-
urday last.
.Born ie. 1855 in the County of Mid-
dlesex, of north of Ireland farrmieg
stock, he was graduated from the
University of Toronto in 1885 and
later received his L.L.B. degree at
Victoria University. He was called
to -the bar in 1889, and after practic-
ing a dhort time at Peterboro he
carne . to Petrollia, practicing with
the firm of Dawson, Weir, Gresnizen
from 1890 to 1893. In.that year he
carne to Sarnia and established him-
self in the practice he carried on. to
the day of his death.
He was recognized as it most
able counsel •and 'deo as a matt of
unusual academic ability. A prolific
reader and a keen thinker, the late
Mr. Weir was almost held in ven-
eration' by ?fire younger members of
the profession. His tremendous
capacity for work was a byword in
this city, but withal he was a kind-
ly, generous man. He, received his
K.C. ni 1921. His interests were his
profession and education.
For many years he was a member
r Education of the Bead of Edu at ou hese and
he was aresi e ,t
p d n of the Lambtoit
Law Association, He was also the
Brat president of the reorganized
Canadian Club of this city,. He is
survived by Ibis widow, formerly Ag-
nes Cruickshank of Clinton, one son,
Charles Weir, his partner in the
firm of Weir & Weir; one datighter,
Agnes, Toronto; g , o f a brother, the
Rev. Richard Weir, of •Vancouver,.
