There was -'nutdu\luwmhfl the â€"rough ~exteriorâ€"of this. Western Dofald paused for & moment on |! the corner of Granville Street while|! the Cosmopolitan crowd flowed past } him. Stolidâ€"faced klootchmen, dressâ€"| ed in‘ flamboyant colors, with basâ€"| kets of clams on their backs, rubbed #houlders with the haughty, turâ€" banned â€" Hindu. The little brownâ€" « faced Jap darted here~and there amongst the crowd. A ‘Chinaman came swiftly around the corner of an alley, moving with a peculiar trot, a pole across his shoulders, from each of which dangled a basâ€" ket filled with fish and vegetables. Another Chinaman, with a hhe of true Oriental impassivenesg, riding a bicycle down the street,â€" a clay pipe jutting from his mouth, was .extremely incongruous.. The * wide, wellâ€"paved streets and the city‘s general air of modernity were imâ€" pressiye. In common with many â€" other easterners, Donald had picâ€" tured Vancouver as a rough Westâ€" " ern town.. "I‘m: pretty lucky in finding < a friend like you," DPonald said foelingâ€" ly/as they shook hands. "That‘s all .:g:o. my. boy," Gillis replied awkw .

Across the Inlet, that sparkled in the sunlight, were huge mountainâ€"peaks, their tops covered with snow. The homeâ€" coming passengers‘ were smiling happily, while a look of eager inâ€" terest shone on the faces of those who were strangers to the Coast. ‘The sun was shinipg brightly as the train rushed along: theâ€"edge Is not equalled by any otherâ€"tea. Donald engaged an «inexpensive room and at once began a sear for employment. Many of the minâ€" ing and logging camps were closed for the winter, and work was scarce. He applied to all the engineering firms in the city, but their answers were invariably the same: "Nothing doing until spring." Days passed, and as late winter merged into spring there was a stir throughout the city. Men who had spent the winter in idlenegs were "going out" again. Loggers in their characteristic blanket ghirts hangâ€" ing ‘ loose outside their trousers, eould be seen on all sides saying goodâ€"bye to their friends. One morning Donald counted his rapidly dwindling cash and found that he would have barely enough to tide him over the weekâ€"end. ..
