adventurous career in Europe re-
turned to Canada. the land of his
birth, and eventually became secretary
of the highway commission of the
province of Manitoba, with headquar-
tiers in Winnipeg, breezed into town
and spent most of the day shaking
hands with his host of friends and
renewing old acquaintance of more
than a dozen years ago.

to Omaha in fifteen years; he kept
busy all day asserting to his old
friends that it was the most pleasant

turn after the war is over.
Although Major Hodgins has been
