ern Canada Are Highly
Satisfactory.

Until few years ago Mr.. Henry
Lohmann lived at bingham, Ill. He
thought he would better his condition
in new country, where he would
have wider scope for his farming OPP
erations. 1t would not seem essential
to refer to Mr. Lohmann, at this par
ticular time, as of German blood, but
for the fact that so many false state
ments have gone out as to i'll treat
ment of Germans in Canada.

der date of January 80, 1916, Mr.. Lob

interesting letter by saying: There
are schools in every district. The
