Commissioner mcfarland returned last
week from Montreal where, on Mon
day night. he addressed the Canadian
Club and its guests on The National
Capital OF the United States Mr.
mcfarland was much gratifed at the
reception accorded him.
Until visiting Montreal the Commits
sioner had never witnessed the winter
sports Of Canada. During his visit the
country was covered with a heavy fall
of snow, an ideal condition for the
games in which the residents of the
country delight Mr.. mcfarland was
driven TO the top of Mt. Royal. which
rises to a height Of 1000 feet aad is
reserved as a public park On its sum-
nit is a toboggan slide half mile in
length and along the slope were nun
dreds of men. women. boys and girls
on snowshoes and skis and dressed in
the most picturesque costumes.
The Photographs recently installed in
the Executive Office as an experiment

rotary TO the Board of Commissioners,
who. by his long years Of service, has
acquired the reputation of being an

hopes OF arriving at his office an hour

numerous and important messages into
the monographs. TO be later Transcribed
and forwarded 10 anxious and inquir-

These dreams, however. did not ma

process was not a success.
