An account of Canadian loggers enduring severe river drives. Men work in cold camps, facing jammed rivers, floating logs, and tidal obstacles. Wages range from two to two dollars daily, with meals provided and a fierce, enduring pace driving the winter timber harvest.
The fragment describes rough logging practice using cast-hook gear and a stout wooden pole with an iron spike. It notes how logs are adjusted to fit and how care is needed when retreating over rough ground. A few lines reference expert river crews and risky maneuvers with plunging logs.
The article notes wild pigeons once abundant across the United States and Canada vanished mysteriously and in large numbers. Now they are reappearing in some former habitats, though not likely to reach former vast numbers. Readers recall times when pigeons were plentiful and valued for food, with hunting common and destructive, before a sharp decline in the late 19th century.

The writer appeals to regional and national figures to consider the welfare of youth facing segregation.

The report references World War II era movement with mentions of bodies recovered near Pemontat and battles in the Sloewa area.

J Harguyne and Henry O'Mara appear amid a string of disjointed references to places in Ontario and Philadelphia.
