Who would have thought so many people lived in Canada? Twenty thousand of them stood it just as long as they possibly could and then streaked for New York. It's Easter time in Gotham and the Canadians are here scattering perfectly good money. Uptown hotel registers look lke time tables of the Canadian Pacific | Railroad. Big and little Dominion towns have poured a part of their population into New York. Montreal, Toronto, Quebec, Ottawa, St. John's and even far-away Winnipeg are ably represented.

The newest dances also come fn for close inspection and the Dominion bids fair to be right up to the scratch when the Invaders of “the States” get back home next weok.

Students from all the big universities ave spilling themselves into the mo- tropolis. From Canadian points alone fifteen special trains have been run. And in addition many thousands filled extra cars attached to the regular trains, An Evening World reporter ap- proached a group of Canadiana in the Waldorf and made a vain attempt to find out the sentiment in the Domin- ‘on on pertinent affairs of the times. “Wha' d'ya mean—Canal Tolls?” indignantly answered one. “Bay, though, how do you get to that hang- out where they've got that new dance wriggle?” “Ulster?

General Passenger Agent Vosburg of the New York Central Railroad is authority for the estimate that 20,000 1Canadiane have taken advantage of the low Eastern rate to New York. Apparently everybody who had $10 or $12 and enough for the “sights” left Canada for the Easter holidays, ‘There are nearly twice as many special trains as last year, #0 money aparently is looser _in the Dominion or the lure of the Great White Way grows stronger annually, Crowds are coming from other di- ! rections, too, Fifty extra trains have been added to the Pennsylvania's reeular schedule from Florida and Washington and by tomorrow night 50,000 are expected from the South.
