A.REI R.O. EYESIGHT SPECIALIST H E aox Dear Friend Roy1 recall my promise to write you. so here I am, this Thursday, in Indian Harbor, a fishing village with the main road Just a few yards from the Atlantic ocean, .and Just a few miles from Halifax. Yrevlous to this year I carne clown by way of Boston, crossing into New Bruns- yick at Calaise, Maine. This year, by Montreal and River du Loop, thea route is longer, gasoline much high- er and roads not nearly so good. There are no less ttham, four t311 'bridges and one Ferry, seventy cents for each bridge and one dolls. for Ferry. From Montreal to Border of NeW Brunswick, people all speak French, even if do speak Dnglish they ex pent you to talk French, The drive is very picturesque, houses are built rpra•ctically touching the roadway and very close to each Other, as farms are 20 rods wide and a mile long in most sections. Telephone poles are all painted white one-half of their height, which snakes it better for night driving. Railroad crossings are made very .conspituous and a full stop must be made by motor vehicles. Alter leaving Grand Falls t he mad follows the Sit. John River. I saw at least six "drives" as they are called by lumbermen. Logs are floated down to Fredericton. or Sit. John, from hundreds of miles up the St. John and its tributaries. The front of each drive is held by loge chained together, which as you know is called a "boom." One drive in particular must have been 250 yards wide and a mile long. A cook house and sleeping quarters were built right on the logs. only ta^ paper shacks of course but they looked quite cheery. Smoke pour- ing from an old stovepipe and the cook waving at ua as we passed by, After arriving in 'Halifax my first engagement ,was to Spryfleld. Just two -and -one-half miles from City Hall. This suburb has sprung up over night as it were. Population has increased so much children go to school fust one halt of each day. (not 'enough schools) so they take their turn. A couple of years ago it was all rock and wilderness, a few summer camps that was all The population, of Halifax has al- most doubled .since the war and so the peovle are spreading out. Sev- enty per cent of houses in Spryfleld are lust boards and nearly all built on Sunday or after regular working hours. I paid fort.two cents for a dozen eggs and forty -true cents for a pound of butter. Halifax is probably the most Cos- mopolitan city in the world to -clay. Sailors from every pont on the seven seas, soldiers, airmen, from everywhere. Women and girls are not allowed on. the streets after mid -night without an escort. If found the city provides one free of charge, Ole takes them home within a radius of seventy-five miles. Last Sunday I went to Cam,/ Hill hospital to see Gordon Harmon. He has been there almost eight weeks, is very poorly but in, good spirits. I ran into. Monty Brothers, who is in the air force. He has his wings, also a couple of stripes, Weduesdtly, June 4t11, 1911 IOR STORES Brussefs - 'Phone 64 ...

Imagine one nran walking ahead of his oxen, another between the plow handles and probably three more all digging out rocks. All on about one-tenth ole an acre. It sure helps the labor situation. Indian Harbor, as I mentioned before, is a fishing village. At Present they are catching Jobst ra,•; The pirce is poor, twenty cents for big ones and ten cents for thole under nine inches in length. Last night a little girl was selling them in the hall for 15c each, all cooked and ready to eat. Weather is very backward, and "planting,' is just starting. Any farming in this community is done with oxen.
