That is Muskoka, which legend says means "blue skies," Muskoka district comprises more than 1,600 square miles, chiefly of bush, lakes and rivers, and five or six towns and villages where vist tors can secure supplies or sou. venirs." While there are hundreds of lakes in the area there are two chains, The larger of these is known as the Muskoka Lakes and the other the Lake of Bays. The former comprises Lakes Muskoka, Rossean and Joseph and is reached bye C.N.R. and "Coach at Graven- hurst (Muskoka Wharf) and by C.P.R. at Bala. Steamers connect at both these ports with the trains and buses. The "Oné Hundred Mile Cruise" by steamer is a delightful way to spend a day seeing the dis- trict. LAKE OF BAYS : The second chaln comprises the Lake of Bays, Peninsula Lake, Fairy Lake, Vernon Lake and Mary Lake, and is reached by C. N.R. or Coach to Huntsville. The "Sixty Mile Crulse" is a popular eide trip on these lakes. Actually there are so many lakes in the Muskokag that from an airplane tfiere appears to be nidre wate? than land. The whole district is mountain. ous, with pine-covered cliffs pro- jecting themselves from water's edge. The water In the lakes {Is clear, soft 'and pure. Al though a three or fodr hours' drive north of Toronto the lakes and rivers in Muskoka are always warm enough during the summer season for comfortable bathing, The maximum temperature during the summer Is-about 89 degrees. Even on the hottest days the nights are comfortable for sleep- ing} The air is dry, clear and brac- ing, and hay fever sufferers find virtual immunity when in Mus- Xoka from this annual plague, Coin Demands Show Upswing Royal Canadian Mint Report R I a tl Iness Activities Extraordinary demand for pro- duction of coin, reflecting in- " ereased Canadian business activi- ty, as revealed 'in the 1940 report of the Royal Canadian Mint re- cently tabled in the House of Commons. - The issue of coinage from one cent to 50 cents was 122,138,000 pieces valued at $6,328,300, ex- ceeding 1939 by 83,660,668 picc- es, an increase in value of $2,- 998,668. The mint report said coin de- mands in 1940 "will no doubt constitute a record for many years to come." "Not "even during the whole period of the First Great War did minting operations exceed this first year of present hostilities in Europe. "Definite reasons for the ur- gent coinage requirements are ascribed to the general increase ~ in business and employment in-e cident to the war, and the with: drawal from circulation of all. United States currency by the public and banks owing to the higher premium on American money." - Pasture, Feed "Needs Stressed Canadian Farmers Are Warn- ed. That - Prospects of Dry 8cason May Curtail Crop Canadian farmers were advised to take immediate action to ensure sufficient pasture and winter feed for their cattle in view of the threat of an unusually dry sea- son to normal hay crops and pas- tures, in a 'statement issued by the Department of Agriculture the middle be June. + ""At- the very' time that extra milk is wanted to make cheese and evaporated milk' for Britain y the rainfall in Ontario and Que- bec hag been less this year than for Many years," said the states ment, Foti "This has reduced the hay crop and hurt pastures but it is not tod late yet to provide additional feed for cattle in spité of unfav- orable weather," For additional pastures.the de- artment suggested the sowing of udan grass or.rape. While milch cows can not be pastured on rape farmers may" conserve- their nor~ mal pasture for the cows by put- tg the other stock on rape. 'o supplement the hay erop the department suggested fowing millet, . the" Big Increase in-Bus--- hoe --taurant, is it all right to tip five --often-annoying-to-players-to have - .y and you calmly: valk out!" of the U.S. House of Representa tives, was the author of many _ quips, being made to secure'a quorum.

Non-Stop Trips Across Atlantic Soon It didn't It's the - Multiple daily schedules requir- ing 12 hours for non-stop contin- ent-to-continent flights may be expected of trans-oceanic air ser- vice within the next two years, J. T. Trippe, Pan American Air- ways system president, told the . annual meeting 'of the Royal Acronautical Society in London, England. He delivered the 29th Wilbur Wright memorial lecture. New-type clipper planes, de- tails of which Mr. Trippe said he was not at liberty to disclose, are expected to be delivered early next year. These planes should permit cruising speeds of at least 75 to 100 miles an hour greater than those now available and would be geared for high-altitude, Since May, 1939, when Pan American began trans-Atlantic flights; the Clipper-planes now in operation have completed 362 scheduled crossings, flying more than 20,500,000 passenger miles without incident, Mr. Trippe said. The planes have carried 4,685 passengers and 810,740 pounds of mail. i The war has brought about "forced-draft technical advance- ment" of trans-Atlantic" air ser- vice, he told the society, causing the airline to carry passenger and mail loads as great as 10 times the originally estimated* volume of traffic. The war has trans- ferred to the airplane about 30 per cent of the total trans-Atlan- ® tic mailg, he said. Ontario Cuts Toll Dr, J. T.

Dr. D, G.

Sceds from this plant produced offspring that had the same sensitivity. --0-- SHOT OF SUNSHINE Recovery of a large numbe} of apparently hopeless infection cases after the injection of a shot of "sunshine" directly into the ed to the American Institute of Homeopathy.

An automatic transfusion pump was used and the patient's circula- tion was not disturbed except for the detour the blood took through the pump and the small irradia- tion chamber where it was expos- ed to ultra-violet rays before re- entering the body.
