! THE TERR CE NEWS, FRIDAY, OCTO3=R 29 1926 Brewing isan important . 14 industry in British Columbia : “EW citizens give thought to what the Brewing E ‘Industry means to British Columbia, as- an industry, yet it is an important factor tn the industrial life of this province. It is not: necessary to emphasize the millions of. dollars invested in the brewing industry.-in this province. The thing that must not. be lost sight of is that there are hundreds of men employed through- out the year in the making, storing and transporting of the products of the breweries of British Columbia. a ' Breweries are constantly improving and keeping modern their plants. The Amalgamated Breweries of British Columbia have spent over $300,000 in the last few months for improvements and equipment. Breweries are an important customer of the farmers of British Columbia, their purchases of grain and hops running into huge figures each year. There is no British Columbia industry that spends more of its tota] income right in this province than the i brewing industry. ‘ The brewing industry brings large’ sums of morey into the province, British Columbia beer is attracting attention abroad for its purity and high quality. Export markets in Australasia, China and India, are constantly growing, ” British Columbia beers are winning their way in these countries in direct competition with beers from Great Britain, Germany and Czecko-Slovakia. They are winning their way on quality and they are powerful advertisements for this province. Facts like these are not romantic, but they are important and should be considered by every citizen. They are not commoniy mentioned by those whose business it is ts attempt to destroy the brewing industry in their determination that the. people of -British Columbia shall be prevented from enjoying a pure and healthful beverage in an Open and above board manner. _ Proof of the high quality of the beer manu- factured by the Amalgamated Breweries is the remark on recent analysis. made by. McDonald and MeDonald, analytical chemists of Vancouver, stating: “By the analysis, semples prove to be excellent beer. They are high in extract, nitrogenous . matter, phosphoric acid and ash, while the acidity is low and the volatile acidity practically - nil, which is proof that the beer is a wuclesome nutritious beverage.” (Signed) McDONALD & McDONALD, Per A.

RUDRA an Rev. T. D. Proctor Writes | | Of His Big Trip to Europe ——" ' The Mission House toa Hazelton, B.0, Dear Mr, Sawle: . In answer to your. request I will wonderful trip which I was privileged to. take thist summer, Although you are no doubt anxious to hear all about ‘ing you something of our own coun- try, for unlike the majority of travel- lers I tried to see the beauties of our own Dominion before going, abroad. Leaving Hazelton.on a beautiful day in spring, the 14th of June, every- thing was looking beautifully green fous summer, As I went east the mountains and rivers apriealed to me more than ever and the whole of the local scenery made me ask myself. the beautiful scenery? ; ‘he lumber camps all along the way to Jasper were working full swing and gave one a little idea of the glorious future for the timber industry of this northern district. The next thing to impress me was Mount Robinson, which stood out beautiful and clear, Then came a few day’s stop at Jasper. This with its wonderful natural park, with . Jakes and mountains on every side: with its most wonderfnl summer resort. And now, having returned from viewing Burope, I consider it to be the most scenic summer enmp which I have seen during my whole tour. - a My next stop was at Edmonton, where I niade a tour of the city and the surrounding district. The crops were in splendid condition and gave every assurance of a bumper yield. which I learned on my return had yielded ‘in many instances a8 much as 70 bushels of whent to the acre, I then made.n break in my journey to visit my old parish of Lashburn. just east of Lloydminster, Sask. I noticed many thousands ‘of acres of: new land under cultivétion and all showing signs for wonderful returns. Then continuing enstward I stopped off to visit my old «university at Saskatoon, Sask. Every graduate is ewan University will one day stand: second to none. The plans have al} been drawn up on a magnificent scale and are being carried out to the let- ter, My old college of Emmanuel alse eulled for n visit, and rightly so, for it turned cut more theological grad ates this year than any other theo- The next city of note to enll for n stop-orer was Winnipeg, Man., which like all other western cities showed signs of grent prosperity. After tak- ing several motor tours in and around the city, one’s attention was next nrrested by the wonderful mail-order store, which is one of the largest buildings on the American continent. Then avain hoarding the train we soon came to the end of the prairte provinces, an thousand miles of the finest grain producing country in the world, and the crops ‘all along: the Iine looking so well that one wonder: ed how go nivch grain could possibly be consumed. But after visiting Lon: don, Berlin and Parls one reall#s] how small a proportion of the world’: population this could satisfy, for these three cities nlone contain approximate- ly 15,000,000 people. Having left ‘the western provinces behind, we came to Ontario, where the orchards were all looking in. fine’ shape, ‘mines very active, and all the businessnien hopeful of @ record: year. To see Toronto and the dirrounding district “called for ‘three days, .whteh I gindly spent: and-felt well rewarded, for the scenery was: wonderful and -the. ‘ Takes maguificent.: The’ city Itself 4s) far the finest city in Canada. To men- tion all things worthy of note which T saw there would be impossible with so little time at my disposal, but I would advise all who can to go there and see for themselves, The ‘next thing to do was to take o side trip to Niagara Falls—one of the wonders of the world. To see the raging torrents rushing headlong over the rocks with such force that if arrested and developed would pro- duce 6,000,000 horse-power, which would supply the North American eon- tinent with Nght. It is at present sup- plying’ the largest power-house In the world, but it is capable of producing at least sixty times as much power. fo follow it caurse as we did for some miles, filled one with such won- der and amazement that it is tmpos- sible to express one’s feelings in mere words. After taking a view of the falls from both the Canadian ond the American side, we passed on to the a day’s sightseeing and visiting its noted buildings, we boarded a palatial ocean liner to cross the Atlantic ocean ‘t trip which some dread and some enjoy: a trip which I enjoyed, but which T now dread, the reasons for which will be explained later. However, thee trip along the River St. Lawrence is not only enjoyable but most wonderful, passing as one does the quaint French hamlets every few miles with their beautiful church spires; then under the famous bridge at Quebee with the largest central syn in the world, one at last sees the rocky “cliffs of Quebec and Abraham's Heights topped by the gorgeous and or five days' journey of open water. But not a moment is dull. On deck there are different games going on. concerts, picture shows, bridge ‘and whist parties, dances and numeraui other forms of entertainment. Ther from the deck one locks with’ amaze ment at the great expanse of water with the white-capped erests rising in- to great waves, each one rivalling the other for height and foree. Then one may witness occasional whales rising | qut of the water, but the most won- lass in the evening after dark, all derful sights of oll are the ships which brilliantly Hghted, and you realize that you are not alone on the mighty ocenn, Then again on no hot summer day the temperature changes and everyone is looking out for icebergs, until one gets a beautiful view, as I did, passing one which was reported: sunset Is rivalled only by the rising sun as seen from.an ocean liner, J sat up until 445 aim. to witness it, but it was a sight never to be for- gotten.
