The publishers in the party were C. V. Charters, publisher of the Brampton Con- servator, who bas been manager of the Canadiani Weekly News- paper Association for the past NQ years; George Lake, publisher of the Porcupine Advance, of Tim- mins, Ont.; Walter R. Legge, pub- lisher of the Gran'by (Que.) Leader-Mail, and Geo. W. James, publisher of the Canadilan States- man, Bowmanvîlle. The car in which the tour was madle was the Pontiac recently presented to Mr.i Charters on his retirement fromi the management of the C.W.N.A. The start of the tour was made at Toronto on the morning of Monday, Dec. 2nd. Western Ontario Lunch the first day was eaten at London, where the editor of The Statesman attended the Ro- tary Club. Shortly after leaving London we ran into snow. The road sanders were out, but we did find one short Istretch where we had beat them to it. Shortly before reaching Sarnia, the snow stopped in a sharply defined line which was quite amazing, and after that we dîd not see any snow until arriving home t.wo weeks later. Brief stops were macle at the Strathroy Age-Dispatch office in Strathroy, and at the Times and Guide at Watford, published by Wm. C. Ayiesworth. When nearing Sarnia, a strik- ing feature is the number of oul wells which are to be seen in al directions. Similar scenes were found in parts of Michigan. Michigan Hospitality Crossing over the fine high bridge that connects Sarnia with Port Huron, we entered the State of Michigan, and shortly arrived at our first stop, Birmingham, which lies just outside of Detroit. Here we were guests of George Averil, publisher of the Birming- ham Eccentric, and the man chief- ly responsible for the successful campaign of Michîgan's new chief executive, Governor Sigler. We later met Governor Sigler at the Olds Hotel in Lansing. We were entertained that ev- ening at the Berkley Club on the magnificent highway between De- troit and Pontiac known as Wood- ward Avenue. There certainly was no sign of any. shortage of anything and the hospitality that evening was of such a lavish na- ture that more than one member of the good-will tour wondered how long we could stand such feasting if that was a sample of what we were to get on the t-ip. First impression of Michigan is that it is just one huge automo- bile industry. Detroit, Pontiac, Flint, and the territory around them seema to be macle up of one huge factory after another, al either automobile factories or ai- lied industries. The roads are jammed with those speciai auto- mobile trucks that carry about five autos. The number of new automobiles being transported in this manner is amazing. Another strange sight was the number of toys for sale. Not on- iy in the stores, but at every ser- vice station there were so many toys on display that it did not seem possible that they could ahl be sold by Christmas. Passing through this automo- bile manufacturing area, Pontiac, Flint, Saginaw, etc., we arrived at Midiand at noon on Tuesd'ay where we were guests of Phil Rich, pub- lisher of the Midland Daily Press. Phil is a great admirer of Alaska andi is an authority on that part of the world, and really sold us on the idea of visiting that coun- try next summer. We were his guests at lunch in the Elks Club. The Elks séem to be strong in Michigan and usually have weil appointed clubs serv- ing meais daily to members. Midiand is a city which is grow- ing very fast, chiefly on account of the huge Dow chemical plants there. When we enquired what chemicals were manufactured, we were told that there were many kinds, but the best knowni is as- pirin, nearly all of that chemicai being macle in Midialnd.l Trlnlty W.MUS. instal 1947 Officers Trinity W.*M.S. met Jan. 7th in the Sunday School room. Wor- ship period, was in charge of Mrs. R. T. Hoskin who used as her theme "The Open Door." Mrs. Aubrey Smith and Mrs. Ella Strike assisted with excerpts on the above subject. President Mrs. C. A. Wight conducted the business session. Annual reports of secretaries -of ail departments were given show- ing a very happy and successful year. Rev. J. E. Griffith presided for the installation of officers and gave a brief address urging the members to continue in the good work of church contacts. Mrs. Hoskin, Mrs. A. S. Baker and Mrs. L. Nicholîs deait with Chapter V of "India at theThresh- old," Christian Youth brini New Life to New Tasks. The officers for 1947 are: Past president, Mrs. W. P. Rogers; president, Mrs. C. A.

Last event of the day was a visit to the School of Journalism at the university., This is a de- partment of one of the really large universities, the total num- ber of students in ail departments being 13,000. Leaving Lansing with regret, we hurried along through Battie Creek to Kalamazoo where we attended a Kiwanis meeting in the Columbia Hotel. They have a fine club with splendid' spirit. After a brief visit to a printing machinery house there, we con- tînued on through Three Rivers and entered the State of Indiana at Elkhart. One last initeresting comment on Michigan, which has a lesson for other states and provinces. The medical profession in Michi- gan, as in other states, has always been 'opposed to advertising in newspapers. There is pending in that State a bill which, if passed, wîll nationalize the medical pro- fession, and the doctors hiave sud- denly realized, perhaps too late, that they have madle a grievous mistake. They are now spending large sums in newspaper adver- tising to show the public what doctors are doing and can do. There is quite a story here, but space will not permit more about it in this article. (To Be Continued) Mr. and Mrs. F.
