The Winnipeg Telegram of Jan
uary third has this to say of an old
timer from Yukon.
Percy Reid wag a sourdough of
X>awson where he acted in several oJ
ficial capacities in the boom days,
com in? from there to Kluane where
he wag deputy mining recorder for
some time and afterwards at Car
cross and Conrad where he was
depute mining recorder and govern
ment agent.
Mr. Reid is a brother In law* o
H. O. MacPherson, the Whitehorse
druggist.
.Mr. Reid and his family have
many friends in Sfcagway.
"J. Bruce Walker vacated his
position as commissioner of immi
gration on the last day of 1918 and
iaa already assumed his new du
ties as director of publicity and In
formation. The position of commis
sioner is being filled by Percy Reid',
special investigating officer of the
department of immigration and col
onization at Ottawa, who will re
main her© until a successor to Mr.
Walker has Deen appointed.
"Mr. Reid arrived in Winnipeg oc
Januarv 1, and is now in charge ol
the western district which extends
from Port Arthur, Ont., to Kings
gate, b. C., with headquarters at
Winnipeg.
"Mr. Reid is well acquainted with
the work and territory as he act
ed in a similar capacity during
Bruce Walker's absence in Eng
land <i> 1917, when lie was appoint
ed to So oversea^ us Canada's rep
resentative on the Dominion's Roy
al commission."
DEVELOPMENTS
BEING STUDIED
Ottawa, Fob. 22.—Matters relat
ing to aero development and mail
services to distant part of Canada
will engage the attention oj th<
fiovernmeut and parliament this ses
siou, but the plans still are in ^
tentative state. A recently form
ed! Cauadiau aero club, with head
quarters in Toronto, in a letter ad
dressed to the government las!
week particularly advocates the
development of aerial services tc
distant parts of the Dominion, such
as tiie Yukon. The aero club al
so asks that prohibition againsi
private flying, impose^ during war
be withdrawn in order that comrner
cial air routes may be established
without delay.
The Dominion government also is
considering th© suggestion to de
velop an aerial service connecting
with the Royal Northwest Mounted
Police force.
FRED MACl.EWAN (iOKS HOME
Fred Maclennan left this morning
for Carcross where he will probably
meet his father, Fred Ma<-lennan,
collector of customs for th© White
horse district.
Fred, Jr., is returning from over
seas having just recovered from a
wound which he received from an
airship. The bullet or missile
struck him on the lapel of his blous
takiu? off a corner of the Maple
Leaf that adorns the collar and' tool
au oblique caurse down and across
his body, coming out just above the
hip.
The surgeons who attended hiii
told him that he had no right to bt
livinp as such a wound should by a]
theories an# examples mean sur<
death. That did not faze Fred an)
and he returns as vigorous ag evei
and that is going some for he is
accounted one of the best speci
mens of physical manhood in Yu
kon Territory.
Fred has hosts of friends who wil
fireet him with gladness and con
gratulate him on his wonderful es
cape from death from the Hun bul
let.
