[The Major by Ralph Connor]@TWC D-Link bookThe Major CHAPTER XI 7/46
The speaker has told us about Canada, its great extent, its vast r-r-resources. Some of us haf known about these things while yet his mother was still sucking him [snickers of delight from the younger members of the audience and cries of, 'Go to it, Mack].
'Tis a great Dominion whatefer and will be a gr-r-reater Dominion yet so lang as it keeps to right ways.
He has told us of the mighty achievements of Cher-r-rmany.
I will jist be askin' him what has Cher-r-rmany done for this country or for any country but her ainsel? She has cluttered us up wi' pot-metal, cutlery an' such things, an' cheap cloth that ye can put yer finger through, an' that will be done in a month's wear-r-ring.
Musick, ye'll be sayin'! Musick! I was in Calgary not long since.
