They were on their way from Canada to Lon- don to take part in the dinner by the Prince . of Wales to Victoria Cross men from all parts of the Empire, slated to be held November 9.

Johnston, Teacher. Colborne THE EMERALD ISLAND ',Another Descriptive Ieetter Fx'e n Miss Findlater !Laurie,,Harboti •, Iroland September 4tha, 100 I wrote you last from Loieckincleti. ry, and since then I have seen a of the 'West Coast and am now ready to cross the Irish Sea to Scot- land, bidding farewell to the Einer- ald Isle of 'the Sea. One thing is 'sure—it Can ;Fever be more emerald than it .now is, for we have been del- uged with rain, and corning eastward this morning I saw, haystacks stand- ing in water nearly to their tops. Well, from Londonderry I went by motor down' through Donegal •Co., which is Free State property. It is all very wild, rugged, barren moun- tain sides, with heather growing far-- ther down the slopes, and the ever present peat bog, Here, too, the Free State Government is doing much to make good roads -whoever pays the bill, will have nq small one —and I cannot see that the surround- ing country will ever produce any- thing to carry over the roads:.. As it is, the roads are very good—certain- ly no mud holes, Our driver went ,hurrying on down hill and up dale,. thinking the road was his alone, and at the bottom of the hill making a sharp :turn to the left he ran into 2 coays, who were grazing peacefully, oil- the road side. I saw one cow go stumbling to the right, but on the left the ,other one was lying in the ditch, and after some persuasion she got up and staggered across the road. I do not know what happened to the cow later but the collision had a fine effect on the driver, and the rest of the road was. driven very carefully. From a place called "Ballyboffey" the country became quite mountain- ous, the clouds rested on the tops and in a short time rain began to fall and as we made our way through Barnesmore Gap we had a Paste of what it would be like in 'a winter storm; no place to go for shelter,. for the bleak hills are on the right ,and the turbid, trembling str•eat3T on the left. But we soon left the hills behind, and the country appeared once more, like a checker board of _green and gold. The little white cotes : tages were closer together, and all very beautiful, but far from profit- able. The town of Donegal was the first large place we carie to, and it is very beautifully situated indeed, but we hurried on and on to Ballyshan- non which is noted for its salmon fishing, and it is here• where there is the remarkable "salmon leap" where in going up the river the -salmon pro pel themselves straight -up. and over quite a deep water fall. At the end of the four-hour ride we arrived in Sligo. Now I always wanted to see the West Coast of Ireland—it is very beautiful indeed, and Sligo Bay is as beautiful as any, but Sligo town is far from clean. It has a fine hotel, couldn't be better, but, the rest of it; I'll spare you.' From here I went on to Ballina, and here a part of the country looked very well, neat and clean houses and out -buildings, and then another section is typical of what we have all read and heard— the chickens and geese in the house while the family pig grunts on the doorstep. The rain fell in torrents in Sligo, so after one night I pulled out for Enniskillen, that is, I re- turned to Ulster again. The Free State holds sway in Sligo County and town, so I made enquiry as to getting to Dublin, which is also in Free State. When I spoke of going to Ennis- killen the motor bus agent said, "Oh, I wouldn't be goin' to Enniskinnen, the bus is a wee one an' very uncom- fortable, sure now, you might far bet- ter take our. bus, (the Irish Free State) there ain't its equal nowhere," etc. When a workman carne to speak to him, he turned on him and. tri a very distainful manner, said, "Be off wid yis, don't you see I'm busy."— at any rate I lead made`' up my mind, 1 wasn't going to miss Enniskillen; I've read history too much to be fool- ed out of that, so to Enniskillen I' went. But I've forgotten to tell you that in Sligo 1 saw the notice of their taxation posted on the ,town walls, and I'm giving it in full so that yon can. compare .it with high taxes of Morris, Wingharn, etc.! To- tal tax 86 pence in the L., or $1,72 on $5.00; 36 pence of this goes to poor 'funds, 34 pence to county sys- text, 16 pence to roads: Think of these poor. people, desperately poor people paying $1.'72 on every $5,001 Well, Enniskillen too, was deluged with rain, but it let tip one afternoon, and some very nice folk from Dub- lin took tie with thein all: around the Loughs Erne,s,, and it was a most de- lightful e- li ht til_ drive, 'i'1 g f d v ,err trtotot• car had air-filled cushions and backs, exceed- ingly comfortable. • From.

No one to whom 'I spoke seemed to think the Free,State could: possibly get along without 'Ul- ster. As far as I saw, Ulster surely is far in advance of the Free State country. From the city of Armagh to Portadown there is by far the fin- est agricultural country I've seen--- many een-many apple oi;chards, good up-to- date buildings, and all looking pros- perous. If the Free State can wave its wandover southern Ireland, and produce such fine results, it will be performing a miracle. I've enjoyed my trip into Ireland very much—everyone has been kind- ness itself to me, and when you say "Canada," they all say "That is where ncy son wants to g'o." - In conclusion I would say, that the kindest thing' our forebearers did for its,was to come to Canada long before we were born. Canadian born men and wo- men cannot understand the problem' to be solved here—these kin of outs in Gt. Britain and Ireland will have to solve thein themselves. But, there is one way we, can help, and that is to give the right hand of good- fellowship to . every British subject who comes to Canada to make ' his home -he needs a home with us, and weneedhim too, if the British Em- pire is to survive—"United we stand!".
