decided tuesday at the sep- i tember meeting of halton county i council in the court house milton i halton had originally agreed to i sponsor an open season if the sur- j rounding counties would also pcr- mit licensed shooting in their own areas but at tuesdays meeting it was learned that of 10 ontio counties approached on the idea neighbouring peel wellington and waterloo had declined the offer councillors afraid an open seas on here would make halton a mcc- ca for hunters from the surround ing counties also agreed to de cline tli applause is all for the 0 le had a mote memo pad for a couple of weeks now to ask if you saw the giant weather balloon that cre ated such a stir when it appeared over toronto must admit that wed never haveeen it if a friend from stewarttown hadnt phoned to tell us about it at that time our in formant didnt know what the hea venly object was either it was quite exciting to speculate about what it could be there are so many beautiful big trees in town it was difficult to find a good spof for viewing it but when we dd- find a cjear place there was the object clearly visible and bobbing around slightly high in the eastern sky the oddity ap peared to be about five times the sine of the evening star and while found and luminous it dldht hav a shining quality completely mystified we thought keith barber might have a powerful en ough telescope oi some such equip ment ta get a better view since he is head of the georgetown ground observers corps unfortunately he was away on holidays corning away from his house however we mentioned the star to his next- doorneighbour george glassford as it happened mr glassford has a very powerful pair of binoculars with which be could distinguish the heavenly object as a balloon with a sort of basket affair suspended from it a weather balloon was his guess this together with his theory that its light appearance was caused by reflected rays from the setting sun was substantiated by the daily papers the next day after talking to mr glassford we went home somewhat relieved af ter all the starlike object was a thought provoking sight southampton to see their courty museum aond yoa it was with a few reservations that we took the family we knew we would enjoy the expedition but werent too sure about them however n neednt have worried because they were most interested thought on myrd mention that because if you like browsing thru a museum dont let the children miss out on it be cause you think they might be bor ed they wont be in fact theyll likely be able to outlook and out- absorb you t the womens institute of bruce county is mainly responsible for this very fine museum they took over the old southanapton-pub- lic school when it was vacated for a new building each room holds a separate department of the mus eum the collections ate large and varied with the section on in dian relics particularly outstanding the exhibit covers nearly every phase of life of the bruce county pioneers it would be impossible to tell you aboutthem in detail however one exhibit in the early furniture department stays in mind most vividly it was a set of three chairs which had been handhewn out of the trunk of a big tree the backs and seats were u in one piece and there was not a nail in them anywhere must admit the chairs didnt look too comfortable but they more than anything else rook my imagination back to the days when the comforts of every day living were few and what there were had to be wrested by hand from the land and forest the heavens provided an other interesting phenomen on a few weeks ago too this we would never have noticed either bad it not been brought to our attention trees and advanc ing years seem to have cut down our stargazing activities consider ably with the result that soie times we miss a lot this time we would have missed seeing a size able comet it appeared directly north of us and had quite a long tail of light we had never seen a comet before so were grateful to the friend who called us there is one little exped ition we made on our lake huron holiday that id like to mention before thoughts of sum mer vacation are completely be hind us on one

next to the bannister you would have thought they had been gouged out with a carpenters tool and smoothed over so uniform they seemed these hollows had been left purposely as a permanent memorial to all the children who had passed thru the halls of learning of the old school and in the process had made good use of the high smooth bannister for sliding all those hollows were worn by the feet of the pupils who used the steps as a brake for their too swift descent i can well be lieve the receptionists remark that there are a number of people liv ing in southampton today suffer ing from bad backs because of falls from that inviting bannister q having succeeded in get ting the family interested in museums i wasnt too sur prised when on a recent picnic to the elora corge park they pied the wellington county museum and wanted to go thruit that sui ted us fine so we stopped to see if it was open on sunday we found it was indeed and that there were quite a number of sightseers in side situated on a corner of the main business thoroughfare of el ora the museum was formerly an old store and residence built well over a hundred years ago we were told it has a quaint old world appearance from the outside and the interior has been conver ted into a charming and artfully arranged museum the decor has kept the atmosphere of a 19th cen tury home with deep and gener ously sized casement windows over looking the grand river which shines directly below i just men tion these things because they all add to the enjoyment of viewing the museum the display of antiques donat ed and lent by wellington county- families is excellent as in the bruce county museum they deal with every phase of pioneer life i was especially intrigued with their collection of carpet bags- commonly carried by some of the early settlers the displays in a museum you more or less have to see for yourself however because what would interest one person mightnt appeal to another but i know youd find must to interest you if you ever visit the beautiful elora gorge park a look thru the museum completes a nice days outing and mow im ashamed to admit i havent been to see haltons museum there is one
