THE CANADIAN SHREDDED WHEAT COMPANY, LTD. SHREDDED WHEAT WITH ALL THE BRAN OF THE WHOLE WHEAT AN ENJOYABLE :TRIP 1214 Wolseley Ave., Winnipeg 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 FtvM E uff' This Bank has always taken an active part in financing the,. farmer. - The requirements of those en- gaged in farming will receive careful consideration by the Manager at any of our offices.

Spittal, Branch Mgr., Witigharn A Savings Department ,at Beery Branch Thursday, September 3, 1931 began a most delightful trip over the hills and through the 'valleys of WiS- consin. It is a beautiful drive all the way, reminding one very much of our own Muskoka and Algoma country, with perhaps more Agricultural land. good. Crops in Wisconsin are Oat 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, C.
