Courage to Change “In Balfour‚ where he landed early in the morning‚ he almost lost courage when he found out that nobody understood him. But at the hardware store a man- the same who had made him a present of the cap he was wearing-had made signs to him as if pitching sheaves‚ meanwhile talking to him‚ tentatively ‚ in short monosyllables‚ apparently asking questions./ he thought that now he looked exactly like a Canadian.” (Frederick Philip Grove 21-22).

Russia lost the Crimean War‚ they saw that they were stuck in the past. While the rest of Europe had gone through an Industrial Revolution improving their militaries and other aspects of their economy‚ Russia was stuck in serfdom without the need to advance. This led Russia to be trying to compete with far superior technologies. The loss showed them that they need to catch up to Europe. They imposed a series of reforms to try and improve their economy. One of the first changes they made was getting

7th May 1918 Yesterday my love went to war and I promised I would write him right away. I miss him with every passing moment and hope he comes home safe and sound. The kids are still sad to see their father go but have faith that he will return. I plan on getting a job here shortly. I’ve heard from several people that they are accepting women in the work force‚ even in factories! Lucy down the street just got a job after her husband left for war.
