Editor Advance -Times ,'In speaking about Central church, there is a feature here which you will seldom find anywhere, namely, two organs 'side by side, the latest one presented to the church by the Vet-:, eransin comemoration of the war, there is but one, key -hoard and the instruments can be played' separately or, together; the church has also' a peal of Bells which was presented by Hong R. B. Bennett, Leader of the oppositionat Ottawa, and cost, I hear, $zo,000,00, these bells are. not alto- gether satisfactory fwr the reason that the tower and church being low the sound is lessened through the building which is opposite and has close proximity of the "Herald!'' ten stories, on, the other corner the P.O. about. the same height, and the Hudson's Bay, six stories on the ' Other side; So • you see it is badly hedged in and the sound is therefore affected. The preacher related a very pleasant circumstance in the spiritual activities of the church. A young man drifting in there on a meeting night, he was practically a "down and out- er" not having any friends, the offic- ials and others took hold of him, gave encouragement and a job, he joined ' the church, lived a proper life after- wards and is now a respected citi- zen, helping to build up the country,. so the Institution stands 'there as a factor and beacon light to guide the poor sinner into the way of Truth and Righteousness. I noticed by an article in the paper here that there are 27 parks in this city, How's that? Also .Sr schools_: This is going .to; be a city sonic day. Called on A. H. Carr, formerly of Winghani in Real Estate and Incur-` I ance who told me that large trandae- tions are taking place in transfer of property, notably the corner of the 8th Ave., to. Hudson's Bay Co.; to enlarge their MammothStore, also adjoining this property the Snnp- Sort Co. have bought to build. The Eaton new building is. also close at hand, I tell you there must be money in pins, needles, halt pins, gutta, candy, paint and powder to do these things. We hopped abroad the 'Trans- Canada train at Broadview, .about 536 1'4514 JI'; miles east of Calgary the run taking. tip about fifteen hours with about 4 stops, so you see it is' no fool of a train. The same is "great" to use an expression, the composition of all coaches is steel, the finish anti furn- ishing is superb and "darkey'atten- 'dant for each car to wait on you hand and foot, more especially the boots, as it cost me fifty cents for a brush up and they did not need it, but that did not matter. I had also a brush down, hat included, oh yes, this is a swell train, a very high class one in- deed, prepared especially for . the `Elite of Wingham, and other impor- taiit places in our Country. The com- mon herd are not supposed to mix withus of the better class! It is de - e]ared by the C.P.R, people that this is the finest 'train in the world. There may be some more elaborate in furn- ishings and a few other extras, but take it altogether, it is unexcelled, the main features are the continuous run from ]4Lonteeal to Vancouver, which. you can figure on for ypurselves from time table, no such a distance cover ed. by any train in the universe, the run made very swiftly, the train stop- ping only at Divisional points or tak- ing fuel and water. These great trains are composed of, seven to 'ninecoaches including, bag- gage, dining and observation cars, the length being so great it seemed like taking a good long walk before break- fast in getting to dining car, on arriv- ing there, they roast you hard if you want a good square meal, however C.P.R. dividends must be paid some- how. Should you visit the City, call upon Mr. Osborne, Mayor, a Book- seller by the way, at the City Hall, who will give you the glad hand and present you with a copy of the "Mun- icipal Manual," giving interesting in- formation about this beautiful city. The recent •rains here have put the roads, in a desperate `condition, pre- venting us from seeing the great oil wells about 45 miles from the city, This is considered one of the great show features for tourists, but the awful ruts, holes, and mud are simply out of the question. By reading the local papers here,' many tourists ;com- ing up from the U. S. have had to come back as they become mired to the axle. The situation has become such that the government are becom- and are debating. spending an initial amount three millions to make roads Passable for tourists who are a big asset to the province. Speaking about cars, this city must be a paradise for dealers as there is a lot of "Junk" floating around nearly ready for the ash heaps, and the replacement will mean a mint of money, people are just crazy for ears, and they buy, money, or no money and I hear dealers have to fight them off. Some pay about $200.00, run them the sea- son, pay no more and have to turn them back for non-payment of bal- ance, the idea among the newly weds, apparently is, "What kind of .a gar- age is there?" The next consideration_ is a kitchenette, bath and room to sleep in, when out of the carp One of the greatest delights of 'a trip of this kind is to see God's great "jumbled: up mess" in the formation of majestic mountains dumped all over the place, some big, some little, but all inspiring, just mention a few; Three'Sisters, about so miles from the City, beautiful Castle, charming Cath;. edral, Hole in The Wall, magnificent Rundle, but why enumerate? They simply show the great creative pow- er of our Heavenly Father; as some: one has said "In the making of this world the residue left over was sim- ply thrown over this province in a' hap hazard way to bring beauty and grandeur for the delight of all man." We say and declare, which cannot be contradicted, the finest scenery in this wide world is found here and no necessity whatever to go elsewhere for natural enjoyment. Europe isnot in it, neither is the U. S.; Switzer- land is only.a backyard. The Yellow Stone Park is but a circumstance to it. IC' was over this trail a few years at ago, that the going was not very swift, it being "a dirt road for part going is not so bad but the coining back is a terror as the River and rocks are away below, The, journey of 85 miles back after dark would almost Make your .hair stand, this occupied only three hours.
