Montreal Honors First Skipper in Port
1. C.P.S.S Montrose bringing first passengers to Montreal, 1923 Season. 2. Captain Edmund Aikman, Commander
of the Boliogbroke.
TWENTY years ago Montreal was but a"mere calling'
place for ships." It had practically no ,modern cargo-
' handling devices or equipment, its wharf sheds were just
wooden shacks which were actually taken down in
winter to prevent them being blown away, and much of
the merchandise was stored in the open air at the mercy
of the wind and weather. Now Montreal is the greatest
port of Canada and' it is the best located. lt'rom a mere
riverside stopping place for ships, it hasstepped into the
front rank of ocean' ports, and has become equipped with
facilities for the accommodation of ships and for the
handling and storing of freight that are unrivalled on the
ciintinent. Despite othe fact • that Canada has less than
10,000;000 population and that the ,United States has
more than 110,000,000 Montreal now handles a greater
voluip of business than any ,.port on the American
continent with the solitary' exception alf s sure York, are
The principirl reasons for M p
the facts that it is nearly earl one thousand anal m
iles inland

Twin Cities, a thousand miles further inland. Were it arra.
all year port, Montreal would be the chief one of the -
continent, but for some months *inter closes the beauti-,.

mouth of the great .river must wait until the ice gees out.;
