Before there was a star to shine.
Before the grape was in the wine.
Before 4 single bird awning
Hcraldcd coming of the spring;
Before there was n rose to kiss
The bosom of n winsome miss,
Before there was lifting song
To ring and carry life along
Before there was n thing at all
On this terrestrial. whirling ball.
Beneath the seas. or stretched above.
Before 1t all, was Love.

Montreal, its metropolis. Built on the
Island of Montreal that lifts Mount

st. Lawrence and Ottawa rivers
mingle, its site is admirable. This
marks the head Of ocean navigation
and here the great ocean-crossing
ships meet the lake and river boats.
The cargoes brought from the west
by boat and rail are transferred to
ocean carriers and start on their way
to faraway ports by an initial voy-
age down the mighty st. Lawrence,
thirty feet deep at this point.
During 1917 Montreal witnessed
the sailing away from her wharves
of more than sixty-five million BUSH

grain came into Montreal by rail,
