Mr. A. K. McLay,
Ripley, Ontario.
Dear Mr. McLay:-
I have been thinking. that 1 sho'ild
�rcg-the good people of Ripley kit w
h
you of our safe arrival in
rough
Winnipeg and also of our most enjoy-
able trip.
We left Ripley early Tuesday morn-
ingand had a splendid run to Sarnia.
Harvest had begun and a good many
fields of fall wheat were in stook
especially as we neared the border
city. Apparently the wheat crop in
Ontario or that part of it at least is
good. We crossed the border with-
out any trouble on either side,In
fact the customs officials both at Sar-
nia and Port Huron as well as at
Noyes and Emerson were very Cour-1
teous. This was true of all the peo-
ple we came in touch with on our trip i
'extreme courtesy marked the conduct
of all service station men and others.
They all seemed anxious to do
what they could. And giveus an en-
joyable time as we passed through
-their country. The double K on our
license number caused no little merri-
ment at times especially was this: true
at the Beach at. Grand Haven where,
we spent Wednesday afternoon wait-
ing -for. the boat. . There were a great
many people there enjoying the de-
lights of that well known and popu-
lar resort and we are amused as peo-
ple would pass by, glancing at our
number. And smilingly remark K.K.
Klu Klux and one young fellow said,
"All youneed is another K." We are
hoping that the impression would not
get abroad in the States that every-
one in Ontario belonged to'the
The country through Michigan es-
pecially on- the Western side, is of a
rolling nature and very much like On-
tario. It is a beautiful drive from
Port Huron to Grand Haven. At
Grand Rapids we called onan old
friend from Belmore; who is living
the former place and. with him. we
,spent a pleasant hour. We had a
Igood trip across Lake Michigan there
was just enough sea running to make
it interesting. On the boat we met
i Mi. Allan McKinnon, who was re-
turning to Manitoba from a trip to
Ripley, and had a good chat with him,
There is a good harbor at Gran Ha-
ven, well sheltered .at the mouth of
the river .and with a great depth of
water. There seems to be lots of
shipping there,
We landed at Milwaukee at 6 o'-
clock in the morning and from there

Thursday, September 3, 1931

harvest. was general both through
Michigan and Wisconsin.
Passing through Superior city, we
called on a cousin of mine, whom 1
had not seen for over thirty years,
Needless to say we had a good time:
He is the President of the North
Western Oil Company,
Before we resumed our journey he
made -us promise to stay over on our
return journey; so be might show us
the points of interest around Super-
ior and Duluth.
Leaving Duluth we drove over the
great Iron Range of Northern Minne-
sota. -It was a little out of otrr way
but there is a good road all paved
for over a hundred miles.
This is the region where the bulk.
of the iron ore of North America is
mined. There are a great many cities
and towns along the range. At Hib-
bing a city of 16,000 we saw the larg-
est open mine in the world: They do
not sinkshafts as in most mining op-
erations but take off the surface soil
and there the great ore body lies ex-
posed. It was a most interesting
sight and I would not have missed it
for a good deal. It is well worth any-
one's while
ny-cne'swhile motoring from Duluth to
Winnipeg to take the trip by way of
the Iron Range, at .FIibbing also is
the largest and best High School in
America so we are told.
The open mine at Hibbing covers
an Area of 1,060 acres two and a
half miles long and from one to a
mile in width, so you see it is some
hole in the ground, yet with all their
mineral wealth they are not neglect-
ing the finer arts, as their well equip-
ped school and churches show.
Corning through Western Minneso-
ta, we reach Prairie Land, where the
result of the Western draught be-
came more and more apparent.
Oats were seen ready to out but not
more than six inches high.
They were Somewhat better in
Manitoba, but not very much.
Taking it altogether we had a de-
lightful trip and enjoyed every mo-
ment of it, driving at Winnipeg we
found our friends in good health and
with them we are anticipating a good
holiday. I trust all are well around
Ripley. Give our best wishes to all,
and assure them we cannot forget
them,
I was thinking of you all on Sun-
day, we had morning service in the
basement of St. Paul's here on ac-
count of the heat,
Your sincere friend,
