much better idea m what the subject looks like than any description of it would convey the word though is used to name several different kinds oi scenes it could mean movies of course or it might mean photographs or snap shots again there is such a thing as word pictures and then there are these innumerable pictures that hang on memory s wall often the mention of some particular word will recall one of those memory pictures the mention of the city of nanalmo which you will know is located on the is land or vancouver recalls to mind this picture we had shipped our car across the straits that saturday af ternoon and upon landing at nanalmo we had all gone to the barber shop for a hair cut there are times when a hair cut can make one feel so much better and this was one of those times then we put up our tent in jth motor camp and although were far from home and only had a tent to live in yet we had the usual saturday night bath it was early to bed that night and wakening early on sunday morning we stepped out side the tent to see what was going on there were quite a few motor ists in camp that night but as we stepped out the only ojiher person in sight was a lady combing her hair out side her tent about four tents down our row she was quite stout and was wearing riding- breeches at that time bobbed hair was quite the thing however ths lady hadn t adopted the abbreviated fashion a yet and she had a ravy headoederk brown hair and it was quitelong somehow the long hair djdn t seem to fit in along with those riding breeches on that stout lady and even et every time ar nanalmo mentioned that using picture flashes across mem orys screen anothei picture that we often speak of occurred one morning early in the city of st catharines the garden city is quite a lhely smart city but as we drove a sister of turs to the early morning train that day it wa almost as quiet as any rural com munltj arriving at the station ahead of the train we sat in the car and tried to think of something in terestlng to sav no doubt you know how difficult it is to keep up an in tore t ng conversation undtr those circumstances as we sat there taxi drove in in a hurry the drhe jumped o it and picking ip his fare grips hustled along to the baggage room q illc smartly he was dresstd in his proper uniform a nav blu outfit with peak cap and all howe r in his haste to dress that morning hi had neglected to shove in his shii t tall and perhaps you can plct ire him hustling along with those grips need less to say we found plenty to laugh at until the train arrived that morn ing often it ls an amusinir picture of thus kind that we remember best or all v v v when driving through the country we often notice something or other that we would like to investigate further if we only had the time on the last saturday of august this fall we were coming through the city of kitchener on our way home and we arrved directly in front of one of the city churcnes just as a wedding party was coming out the usual decorated car was sitting at the curb close by however a large soft drink truck was parked directly in front of the church and apparently it was intended to be there the bride and groom jumped up on this truck to have their picture taken of course we didn t stop to find out why this particular arrange ment had been made however it gave us something to think aboufcrf we wondered perhaps if this parti cular romance hadnt started with a nickel and a bottle of pop and two straws please away back in their younger says of course possibly either the bride or the groom or even both or tl em may have been employed by the soft drink company that owned the truck however we like to think of the two straws please as the better solution to the mystery v v v we understand that initiations have been curtailed in schools colleges and universities and the reason given of course ls on account of the war we fall to see where the softpedaling of initiations ls any help towards winning the war the fresh men that will miss this ceremony will be missing something that ls im possible to replace as they are only freshmen once initiations are not un like these jokes that the guests like to play on the bride find groom at weddings the groom does every thing that he can think of in order to tool the guests so that they will be inable to decorate the car that they intend using on their honeymoon and jet if the guests don t find the car and decorate it both bride and grom eel as though they have been ihort chaneed in both instances u is good lesson in the art of beln
