BRIGHT WATERS AND HAPPY LANDS Situated in the heart of On- tario's vacation land--and known to the Indians of long ago as the "Bright Waters and Happy Lands' are the Kawartha Lakes. This chain' of lakes, six hundred feet above Lake Ontario and over one bundred and fifty miles in length, constitutes' one of the most popu- lar summer playgrounds in Cau- ada, There are almost unlimited op-: portunities to indulge' in your favorite outdoor recreation, so there may never be a dull hour during your sojourn, however long it may be. But perhaps the greatest attrac- tion the Kawartha Lakes offer is the fishing. Small mouth bass and maskinonge are caught in the larger lakes, while there is good fishing for speckled trout in most of the inland lakes. Bobcaygeon, reached by the Canadian Pacific Railway, is ideal- ly situated as the central point of entry to the lakes. The best and most adequate accommodation is to be had for very reasonable rates, while boating, bathing, ten- nis and fishing are at one's door- step. Ask nearest Canadian Pacific agent for Kawartha Lakes booklet or information regarding rates and train service. Mr. M. R. Johngon, C.P.A., C. 'P.R., Oshawa, Ont.
