Wed., June 3rd.
Dear, Mother, Dad and Mary,-
Despite the difficulty in writing on
one of these old trains I want to get
a letter started to you and hope you
will be able to make out the scrawl,
What is so rare as a day in June,
especially when it is springtime in
the Rockies. It is a marvellous day
and we are right in the mountains.
We left Shilo on Monday night at
8 o'clock our whole regiment getting
on the train. There wasn't much to
see that night but the prairie, We
went through Brandon, then over to
Regina. I woke up about '3.30 when
we got to Regina where the train
was stopped for a few minutes but
you couldn't see much. All day yes-
terday we were going through Sask-
atchewan and Alberta. We stopped
in Saskatoon and had a bit of a
march last night. The whole regiment
marched around Edmonton so I have
had m walk 1
Y k in Sask. and Alta. too.
Taking that north route gave us a
little more variety in the scenery as.
there wasn't so much flat prairie. At
times it was quite rolling country
and reminded me of good old Ont-
ario.
I
went t
oe
b d ing cod
time,
me
about 11, last night and slept right
through. e were stopped at Jasper
Park about 3 a.m. but I slept right
through it. There were 13 coaches
on our train out that far and there
we picked up another 12 coaches of
soldiers going through to the coast
so we have a large train now.
I won't forget my first view of the
prairies when we were coming from
Camp B. for a long time. -Nor will I
forget the first view of the moun-
tains this morning. T found it a very
impressive sight to see them tower-
ing up on both sides with snow on
the peaks.
In some cases the clouds seem to
drape themselves around the tops
and sometimes seem suspended on
the sides.
The train has just stopped as a
horse was crossing a railway bridge
and slipped between the ties. A lot
of fellows -got off and got it out and
we are on our way once more.
We stopped at McBride, B.C., to
have a little exercise. It is in a valley
in the mountains and is a nice little
spot. It is amazing to find such a
spot in the mountains. Incidentally
we are travelling C.N.R. We follow-
ed -the Fraser River for a long time
this morning'. It is quite a river and
flows quite rapidly at spots.
We passed Mt. Robson this morn-
ing and it is the highest peak in the
Canadian rockies, being 112,972 feet
above sea level. That would be some
baby to try and climb.
At times you would hardly guess
that you were in the mountains. The
pine trees are dense and for the last
few miles the country seems fairly
flat because of the trees for miles on
each side of the racks. I haven't been
able to see a mountain for some
time now and it looks more like parts
of Quebec. There are small settle-
ments up through here where they
have lumber mills. We have been in
the mountains for 12 hours yet you
see these things and we must be half
way through them. There are lakes,
rivers and the odd toad. It isn't
nearly as rough and rocky as I
thought it would be. It ishard for
me to describe and hard for you to
conceive unless you see it.
Thursday a.m.—We stopped last
night at Prince George. It is another
mountain town with a population of
about 3,000. We marched around
town for a while and got some exer-
cise.
Thursday evening—We got to
Terrace at 3 p.m. and marched up to
our new lines. The last part of the
trip was much more picturesque than
the first. The mountains were much
more rugged and there were some
quite deep ravines and fastflowing
streams.
Our new location is out . of the
town in a sort of valley. In every ,
direction you see mountains, the tops
of anost of them being covered with
snow. -It is really a pretty spot and
quite warm too. The distance to the
mountains varies from about 1. to 30
miles, They are certainly huge.
We are in tents and as yet have to
get our blankets, dishes and case for
straw for mattress, We will sleep
right on the ground and I think it
will be o.k. Don't worry about me as
I am fine. Gained six ilii. at Shilo.
Trope you are all fine, love, Stewart,

SALVAGE BULLETIN
Several tons of salvage were
brought in during Tuesday's collec-
tion from the East Side of Seaforth,
Egmondville and Little Scotland.
Three business men donated their
trucks and Boy Scouts, Wolf• Cubs,
committee members and the truck
drivers brought the salvage to head-
quarters. In the evening a squad of
sorters from the Presbyterian Church
arrived and before they left every-
thing was sorted and ready for sale.
The next local collection will be in
the West Side of Seaforth, and will
take place early in July. Be ready
iforit with your salvage!
Rummage articles are wanted by
the Salvage committee. The money
from the sale of these articles will
will be used, with all other monies
received from salvage, as donations
to War Charities. Look around your
house and garage for some articles
that you are tired looking at, but
that you know someone else would
be glad to buy. Chairs, tables, baby
carriages, children's tricycles, that
extra car jack in the garage, etc.,
etc. As high as $10 has been received
by your committee from the sale of
a single article donated and sold in
this way.
As no jute whatever is now com-
ing into the country, all jute bags
are desired and will be resold and
put into production by your com-
mittee. The Government has asked -
that people be info>;nred that jute.
bags should not be used as aprons;
in fact it is now illegal to mutilate a
bag. Turning in all jute and cotton
bags and having them turned back
into production is the only way that
the present scarcity can be partially
made up.
Boxes will be sent to local boys
overseas immediately. The Overseas
Committee would welcome names
and addresses of any who have gone
overseas since Christmas. . Please
leave names with Miss Alice Daly,
Special thanks is due the local
'Salvage Committee whose generous
donations are making this undertak-
ing possible.
