RE: "HOLIDAYING IN CANADA ON
THE OTTAWA RIVER
Ottawa, Dee. 17, 1941.
'The Editor, The Huron Ehrpositor: •
Dear Sir: Now that our "Good
Neighbors" are formallyranged be-
side us, it occurs to me that many
Canadians might find My Queen's
Canadian Fund Book a suitable
Christmas souvenir of Canada to send
to friends in the United States and
elsewhere. Many features and photo-
graphs were included especially to do
honor to "Uncle Sam." The title page
has idle flags in color entwined and
the- supporting mottoes: "In God We,
Trust" and "United We Stand" ---a bit
of prophecy written last March.
A brief interim report might be in-
teresting to your readers:
1, One thousand books have been
disposed of and about a thousand re-
main to be sold.
2. This book has been reviewed in
nearly one hundred papers, magazines
awe publications, giviag valuable pub-
licity to Caniela's tourist trade and
the fund.
3. As a result of this effort on be-
half of Her Majesty's Fund for Mr
Raid Victims in the last few months
it has been My privilege to forward
to London the sun: of $350.00 ie all to
date.
May I thank you and all helpful
friends for your assistance herein and
bring you all Tin Tines historic and
;immortal Yuletide greeting, "God
bless us, every one!"
Yours, faithfully,

For surely someone is waiting for

Red Cross Notes
Since the last report was made
from the Hensall branch of the Red
Cross Society, one other contribution
toward the Blanket Fund has been ee-
ceived, namely, Mies A. Moore, $2.00,
bringing the total to date to $130.00.
Again we thank all those- who have
given blankets, quilts or money for
this project. Membership fees are
slowly arriving and once again we
would urge former- members to re-
new their fees, if possible, before De-
cember 31, 1941. We ,had last year
430 members. This year to date we
have 185. Your response to this urg-
ent appeal will save the executive a
great deal of time in organizing for
a house-to-house canvass and ani -
dentally gasoline will be saved by
eliminating the need of canvassing
using gasoline to call. Please co-op-
erate in this matter and show your
interestand loyalty to Red Cross
work. Soule of the following facts,
which were revealed at the annual
meeting of the Hensall branch of the
Red Cross, may be of interest to
many people: Our campaign for Red
Cross donations in 1939 produced a
revenue of $971.25. The campaign .n
1940 resulted in a revenue of $1,188.27.
Our total receipts from all 'sources,
since our organization was started,
have been $5,442.63. Our total expen-
diturek$4,659.73. Certain percentages
of our receipt a have to be forwarded
direct to Toronto. We have remitted
to headquarters, including the Blan-
ket Fund, $1,192.00, We have also
spent on wool $1,699.00; hospital sup-
plies, $930, and relief supplies, $638.
The report of the purchasing commit-
tee, given by Miss K. Scott, contained
this information: 2,213 yards of ma-
terial have been bought during the
past year, besides 1% bolts of sheet-
ing. The cutting committee's -report,
presented by Mrs. Luker, stated that
1.451 articles of clothing had been cut
in that department. Miss Buchanan,
R.N. of the Hospital Supply •Commit-
tee, reported that 143. articles, speci-
fically hospital goods, thad been made
during the year. The hospital com;
mittee and the sewing committee ,co-
operate to -a large degree in their
work and when' the quota of hospital
supplies is met the members of the
committee join in with the sewing
committee. The sewing committee's
report was presented by Mrs. C. Cook
and 1,414 articles were reported as
Completed during the year. The knit-
ting committee's report was present.
ed by Mrs, W. 0. Goodwin, 1,818 knit-
ted articles haying been completed
during the year. 'This is an' increase,
over last year of 459 articles. The fol-
lowing summary is worthy of hearty
congratulations: ,1,053 pairs of socks,
56 turtle -neck s'eeers, 196 sca;rves,
army and navy, 276 pairs of mitts,
Mrs. Cook also reported for the In-
spection Department, stating that all
the goods shipped from the r ms
had been carefully inspected and 4d
met specifications. No complaints h
been received from Headquartefs
about any of the work or any w�rk
returned since our branch has been
organized. A great deal of credit for
this worthy record is due to the var-
ious conveners of the departments,

.FIRST HOMES QF CANADA
Wherever wood was available, the
log eahin or shanty almost invariably
,was the type of - home built by the
earlieSt Canadian. settlers and there
was little difference in the essential
characteristics of these dwellings
from one area to another. On the
Prairies the sod house. provided a
noteworthy variation due to the ab-
sence of wooded areas. Progress in
the early settlements was rapid, the
on4.yoom shanty in Central Canada
(now, Ontario emit -Quebec.) often be-
ing replaced by stone or brick struc-
tures within a single generation. In
other areas, frame dwellings predom-
inated even in 'the later stAges of de-
velopment. The nineteenth century
witnessed a great change In the
homes of...,Canada. brought about by
more abundant supplies of building
materials, better* transportation facil-
ities ,and the rapid growth of cities.
Concentrations of population necessi-
tated greater emphasis on water sup-
ply, sanitation, fire prevention end
communication systems.
The principal urban development in
Canada came after 1850, with Mon-
treal, Quebec and Toronto being the
only cities. having more than 30,000
persons at •that time. Growth was re-
tarded by devastating epidemics a-
niong the poorly equipped immigrants
and by feverish spe'culation in land
'values. Improvements in homes and
