Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Thirty-First Annual Report of the Commissioners for the Queen Victoria Niagara Falls Park, 1916
The military authorities required the use of an extensive area in the Park proper for camp grounds and the closing of the zone of the Park containing the plants of the power companies lightened the usual maintenance work. The force of workmen available was greatly reduced owing to the demand for men both in the district and with one of the power companies in Queen Victoria Park where ex tension operations were being undertaken. To meet the rising scale of the cost of living and the upward tendency of wage rates, increases were made to Park work men, and difficult as the situation was the appearance of the Park was kept up to a high standard of maintenance.
