Life
An English writer who either in fact or to get
matter for writing went Canada as an i'm
migrant has interesting things to say in
THE London Standard" of his experiences. He
thinks. for instance that immigrant with only
a small sum at his disposal should go directly to
the West and as far West possible He did not
do so and hence his experiences relate chiefly TO
ice bound Nova Scotia and snow, imbedded
Montreal He found the town Canadian. ap-
parently a diamond in the rough-very rough. in
fact-but OF course his remark applies only TO
Canadians such a IS immigrant will be likely
to be thrown in contact with. The democratic
character OF the manners he observed impressed
him unpIeasanty. Here, for instance. is his pct-
lrs OF Montreal manners as seen by an English
man. I'm the hotels in the streets, In Offices and

offensive disregard OF them It arises largely from
Ignorance OF their very existence. Speech is
brusque and aggressive in tone, though not in

outward forms OF courtesy are mere relics of
mast age ,. The rows of feet he saw In the hotel
windows also impressed him, also the fact that
Canadians are valiant trenchermen, eating practi-
cally three dinners every day, for one meal is
exactly like another and meat is eaten three times
a day In short the Engli Imam does not seem
to have been favoraby impressed with "Our Lady

mistress in her own household and can afford to
90 her own way leaving the immigrant to go his.
