It is a country, of Inlets, bay, lakes and trees, making a beautiful sight from that height. Settlements are few and far between. Four hours and a hiOf after leav- ing Montreal, we were gently net down at a huge airport in Newfound- land. Here we were given a past and taken to East-bound Inn for dinner. One interesting thing about New- foundland is that it seem* to be fm- un*xib!e to fret anything but tinned milk. The airport i so large that we real- ly did not see much of it. A railway train attracted our t- tetion and the engine carried a mes- sage painted on it* sides, "Britahi Deliver*. th Goods." After a stop of about four hours, the party embarked again this time with only eleven passengers, as two who left Montreal were bound only for Newfoundland. We settled as well as we could for a lone tedious night as the plane steadily forced ahead at a high speed.

Wednesday morning was spent at th British Ministry of Information, and at noon we met Major General, the illuii. P.J. Montague, who is sen- ior officer Of the Canadian Military Headquarters. This conference lasted some tim after which detailed instructions concerning the forthcoming trip were given, and we prepared to really start work the next day. The summary of rr activities will continue in the next article and more detailed accounts of the various pha- ses of our activities will follow later.

On comparing notes after this rou- tine, we found that nearly every member of the party was told a dif- ferent story as to when we might start. Some were told that there was no plane available while others were told to be ready at 8.30 the next morning, and others were instructed to expect a call sometime in the mld- Ide of the nigbt. This is probably part of the plan to ot keep movements as secret as pos- sible. Actually the cars called for us at the hotel early the next morn- Ing. The plane arranged for us was a large four-motored Liberator, which had been fitted, with two long ben- ches for us to sit on. Seven of our party had left a couple of days be- fore. but other passengers with us made the party up to 13, a fact Every moment seemed crowded with some appointment. Saturday was taken up with reg- istration, and application for ration cards, photos for our paRses of which there were so many that Mr. Napier Moore claimed that he had to buy a duffle bag to hold them.

Research has shown that darker honey has more accessory food value because it contains more minerals, especially iron, copper and manganese. Among the lighter-col- ored honeys are those from orchard blossom, maple, basswood and clover. The darker honeys with their strong hearty flavour include those from dandelion, golden rod, and buckwheat, ranging from lighter amber to dark reddish brown, writes W.A. Stephen Bee Division, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa. In making light cakes and cookies, or in sweetening 'beverages, or when it is desirable to maintain /a partic- ular food flavour, light honey is used, when honey is intended for a bread spread, or on pancakes, or in dark cakes, dark honey with its stronger flavour may be preferred. All honey is sweet, but honey to more than sweetness. It is food ready to supply energy and flavoured with the perfume of flowers. It con- tains carbohydrates predigested su- gars; enzymes that air digestion; acids that do not cause acidity but contribute to a normal balance; vol- atile oils which give flavour and ar- oma; minerals elements neccess- ary in the building of blood, bone, and muscle; and coloring material pigments which indicate flavour and food value. <^*. *&*.:*&*. .^9.
