CHERS' CONVENTION
IN NORTHERN ONT,
Cochrane Inspectorate Teachers'
Convention met at Cochrane on the
evening of Sept, 28th and at 10 p.m.
boarded the train for Moosonee;
The T.&N.O. Ry, Co. had smooth
running pullman cars for the conven-
ience of the 160 teachers taking the
trip, We crossed the Moose River on
the new $1,000,000 bridge. The bridge
of 18 spans, each span being 110 ft.
We arrived at Moosonee at 8 a.m.
being 667 miles north of Toronto.
'We breakfasted at James Bay Inn,
very beautiful and swell modern ho-
tel. .After breakfast we were taken
three miles by House Boat to Moose
Factory on Moose Island or Factory
Island as it is more commonly call-
ed. At Moose Factory is the Hud-
son Bay Trading Post, one of the
first to be established by the H. B.
Co. It was captured by the French
in 1686 but re -captured by the Eng-
lish in 1693.
We visited the Anglican Mission,
which was established in 1851. The
residential Missionary, Rev. J. Black-
burn, took us through the Indian
Residential School where the Indian
children come to receive an educa-
tion. This is a Government institu-
tion. 1.Ve next visited the Anglican
Day School, where the children of
the resident Indians receive their ed-
ucation- The junior classes (7, 8, 9
and 10 years) were in session. These
children all speak English, Cree and
Eskimo fluently. They sang the hymn
"Jesus Love Me," in all three langu-
ages for us. We also visited the fol-
lowing very interesting places: "The
Old Forge" which is the oldest build-
ing in .Ontario, being erected in 1740
and we had an interesting chat with
the smith, Mr. Thomas Moore.
The Boat Shed where till very re-
cently all the boats up to forty tons
capacity used. there, were built. The
Factory Cemetery where the first
Bishop of Moosonee, John Horden,
and others connected with the early
history, are buried. The Old Powder
Magazine with its copper roof and
copper door. This building is all
wood, copper and stone, not even an
iron nail was used in its building.
The Indian village where the Indians
live rent free in the H.B. Co. houses,
_ moving in and out as they please.
The Indian encampment where the
Iidians camp when they come in with
their furs. Most of these were dress-
ed Indian fashion with the papooses
in their old fashioned cradle strapp-
ed on a board and carried on the mo-
ther's back. The Indian boys were
out shooting birds with their bows
and arrows with which they seemed
to be very expert.
The Anglican Church which one
spring floated away, has holes bored
in the Boor so that when the water
rises it can come in through the
floor, and this holds it in place.
After a game of softball we left
Lecture by Rev. V. Patterson Much
Aprreciated.
The chicken pie supper served in
the school room of the Presbyterian
Church, Bluevale, on Friday evening
under the auspices of the Ladies'Aid
Society was a decided success and
drew a large number of people. The
tables which were decorated with
fruit and flowers, looked -very attrac-
tive and from six o'clock until after
eight the waiters were kept busy ser-
ving pie. After the supper was serv-
ed a good program was presented in
the auditorium of the church. The
chair was occupied by Rev. Kenneth
MacLean, pastor of St. Andrew's
Cherch, Wingham, who filled the po-
sition admirably. The program con-
sisted of a lecture, "Scottish Life and
Character" by Rey. William Patter-
son, who pictured, the Scot as having
many outstanding characteristics, be-
ing especially shrewd, honest thrifty
and careful almost to the degree of
being tight, but unselfish.
The humorous side of the Scotch -
man's life was portrayed by several
stories which were indeed fitting.
M.r. Patterson finished his lecture by
(lettering that the scotehman stood
for industry, education and religion.
The musical part of the program car-
ried out the theme of Scotland. Af-
ton Waters and other such selections
played by Mr, Fred Hollenbeck On the
violin accompanied by Mrs. J. C.
Higgins were much enjoyed, while
Mrs. Harold Lawson of Clinton, Mrs.
Leon Kauffman, Bluevale, Messrs, A.
Ramsay, Wingham, and W. L. Spelt -
of Brussels, delighted the audience
with their vocal solos, several of
which were scotch. Miss Margaret
Turvey gave two good readings. The
singing of the National Anthem
brought a very enjoyable evening to
a close, .

Liquors to be Cheaper
Cost of British liquors to patrons
of Ontario Government stores will
likely be reduced on November 1, as
a result of increased British prefer-
ence announced in the House of
Coientons, • Ottawa. Commissioner
Stewart McClenaghan of the Ontar-

question of passing on to the public
the reduction in liquor duties will be
given thorough and immediate study.

Wingliaen, ,OetariO,
it was there the ships from England
used to unload their cargoes for
Moose Factory and other H. B. Co.
posts on James Bay. Here we had
a splendid view of James Bay. The
Moose River is twelve miles wide
where it flows into James Bay.
Returning to James Bay Inn, at
Moosonee, we all enjoyed a splendid
fowl dinner and the evening was
spent in sing -songs and dancing, af-
ter which we boarded, our train for
Cochrane, arriving there at '7 a.m, on
Friday. Friday was spent in the reg-
ular sessions of the Institute in
Cochrane.
The Missionary reported excellent
crops on Factory Island, The land is
well adapted for growing any of the
hardier grain and vegetables. We
saw splendid potatoes, beets, carrots,
beans, cabbage, cauliflower and on-
ions, all of ‘vhich appeared to be ful-
ly eual to any grown in Southern On-
tario. At present the Dominion Gov-
ernment have several experimental
plots of grain on the Island.
We were astonished at the num-,
ber of Husky Dogs to be seen ev-
erywhere. On Factory Island alone
there are over 400 Huskies. They are
dangerous when hungry and will not
hesitate to kill one of the cattle or
even a child if they chance to, meet
one when hungry.
We have the distinction of being
the first Teachers' Institute to visit
Moosonnee, •Others will likely fol-
low, but we have led the way.
