by rain and sleet yesterday created In
this city and vicinity the most disa-
greeable weather conditions known In
many years.
During the early hours of the day
heavy, wet snow fell in huge flakes.
This condition prevailed for several
hours. Shortly after noon the snow
turned into n steady drizzle of rain
that continued with intermittent peri
DDS OF sleet, all afternoon and far into
thu night Much of the snow that was
left from the recent blizzard was quick
ly converted into slush and last night
the streets were inches deep. The side
walks throughout the city were COW
cred and the crossings were almost i'm
passakle.
The work of the street cleaning de-
partment was undone and the city's
streets are in a worse condition than
before thousands Of snow shovelers
went TO work after the blizzard. Dur
ing the evening the temperature fell
enough 10 turn the downpour of rain
into "A coating of ice over buildings
and trees. In Central Park the trees
creaked under the weight of the thick
ice. Many branches fell. This condi-
ton prevailed throughout the other
parks Of the city.

enues q high-power wire fell across the
backs OF a team of horses drawing an

Messrs. ]. f. Blum and j. Crumper
of Manchester, Washtenaw County,
Michigan. paid a visit to Alberta last
summer and saw there Mr.. Shantz,
one of the good old Pennsylvania
stock. who had come recently-some
seven years ago-from Ontario with
S24 in his pocket. He has certainly
prospered, as he now has over seventy
head of cattle, has a good loghouse

all respects looks thrifty and we'll

crops of oats and barley. After spend

where the crops appeared very prom.
Using and heavy; continuing up the
Regina and Long Lake road they came
to Saskatoon on the crossing OF the
South Saskatchewan River. OF this
district they say:
THE country here pleased US better
than any we have seen. We drove out
eighteen miles In northwesterly d.
rection through the Smith settlement.
This is a wonderful district; the
growth was splendid; all kinds OF
grains and roots we're perfection. The
older settlers had good buildings OF
all kinds and looked very prosperous:
in fact, we came to the conclusion that
we had found what we were looking
for, a good country. While the nature
of the soil changes and is in some
parts light, in others stony. and again
heavy, generally speaking 1t leaves
nothing to be desired Hay and water
are also in abundance and wood can
be found along the river slopes and
islands. We have decided to locate
there and shall certainly advise our
friends to do likewise. We also trust
that this report may have the effect OF
drawing the attention Of land seekers
to this district. and can honestly ad

None knew thee but to love thee,

Our belief in a future life must al
ways be consoling. Surely this can
not be the end of human aspirations
and growth. Beyond this uncertain
and unsatisfactory existence there
must be a world free from the disap-
pointments, the sorrows, and the pains
of earthly life. AT any rate prefer to
believe that, and to feel that our friend
who has gone to that "bourne from
whence no traveller returns,' is today
happy in the wider vision and a larger
Interpretation of Gods plans and pur-
poses than is possible to us who are
left behind. For him ''Life's fitfu1

loyal, true. He is the gentlest memory
of all my friendships. The recollec-
tons of our associations and his many
kind acts will DE sweet to dwell upon
as the passing years go by and the
evening of life draws near. Sadly
speak the word, "Farwe11n" I loved
him living, love him dead. Then
Farewell to thee or to that part which dies.
But to thy name and bright. imperishable fame
We cannot say farewell. Within our hearts
there lies
memory of thy glorious deeds and name
