This popu- larity and enthusiasm is due in a large extent to Dean Hodgson of this town operating a summer resont in Haliburton for several years. And this year Harold (Hap) Gilbought and aperated another popular resort in the same caunty which has already become the mecca for vacatign- ists. Haliburton County, named for Judge Haliburton, author cf the widely read Sam Slick stories, was invaded by the trapper, pros- pector and se ttler, over a hund- "red years ago. Although fanm- ing was net a success in Hali- burton, the abundance of white pine created a thriving lumbering lndustny, which prospered for many years. Its mare than 600 lakes, many ai them mcrm 1000 ta 1400 fcet above sea level, and bush-clad bills, make it the ideal setting for sumnmen vacations; but not until the companatively necent pnograrn oi road building was undertakei, was it very wiclely known out- aide its own borders. With the advent of paver-' highways, and improved gravel roads, Halibur- ton is rapidly coming to the fore- front among Ontario's play- grounds. All of its more import- ant lakes are now readily access- ible te the metorist, and well- appointed tourist accommodation is to be found in ail sections. Its chain system of lakes, with iconnecting waterways, or short ;portages, make this region a ca- Snoe-tripper's paradise; and manyý of the lakes are well stocked wt bass, lake salmon, and çp.ke itrout. Almost 90 per cent of Hall- iburton is bush land, and deer are 7plentiful; consequently, it bas 1been a favorite hunting groulpd 1for many years, and every fali 1sees a large irflux of hunters, many of whom have been cern- ing since the days when canoe and wagon were the only means of transportation. The Haliburton Highlands offer ideal conditions for winter sports, and this feature is being rapidly developed by resert keepers, and a good ski tow bas already been constructed adjacent to Halibur- ton town. There is no reason why Haliburton should not equal the famed Laurentian winter resorts in this respect. Early' in October, Haliburton presents a special attractionrworth a weekend rnotoring trip to gaze 1upon. The fail feliage is a riot af 7gorgeous coiouring, breath-taking 1in its spiendor. Warm, sunny Ldays, and frosty nights are the magie pigments used by Nature, to paint a harmeny of colour be- yond the craftsmanship of any 1human artist. West Durham Women's Institutes Well Represented at Convention Mrs. M. M. Snowden Several bus loads af West Dur- ham Women's Institute members attended the Centrai Ontario Area Women's Institute Convention an Thursday, Nov. 2 at the Royal York Hotel, Toronto, when 1,000 wemen registered. Mrs. J. R. Fatshen, F.W.I.O. President, in speaking af ber at- tendance at the Asseciated Coun- ty Wemen ai the Wanld Conven- tien held in Cepenhagen necently, described in detail the setting fan this world arganization gathering. Because of a difference in ar- rangement af districts in the dif- ferent countries, Canada was en- titled ta more delegates per mcm- ber than other ceuntries. It was significant that peoples af other ceuntries look to Canada fer lead- ership. We who have been 50 fav- ered must net fail in eur respensi- bilities. Madam R, Vaudelet, Quebec, luncheen guest speaker, in speak- ing on "Pantnership is aur Bus- iness" reviewed mistakes made ever the last 150 years in the palitical pnoceedings in this coun- try with the resulting lack ai un- denstanding between the people of Quebec and those of other provinces. We must bring aur religion eut into tbe open. The social use we make ai aur re- ligion is ail important when God looks down. It is stupid ta try ta work with a lack ai unity. It murit seem we are not far remaved frem the jungle. Even with language bàrriers nemoved it may take 100 yeans ta unda mistakes ai the past. John Fisher, well knawn radio cemmentaton, in his address saîd the subi ect nearest bis heant was "Saving Canadian Children far Canada." He said the Women's Institutes came into beîmg be- cause, tbneugh ignerance ai prap- er cane, a mother lost ber child. Canada teday bas a shameful re- cord in the death rate ai children under one year ai age. If aur support ai the "Save the Child- ren" prognam saved anc child that anc might be the rescuer af a natien. Mn. Fisher also spoke of aur need ai a langer popula- tien in Canada. In addition ta aur higb infant dcath rate Can- ada lest 7,000 educated persans te the U.S.A. in one ycar. Our third loss was thraugh refusing ta ad- mit those needy iolk from war- ravaged ceuntnies. Ron Hendensan, U.N. reporter, pinch-hitting for (Red) Faster teld ai 22,000 mien, women and chiidnen standing in lime, many with lunches, ta get into the Unit- ed Nations meetings and ai how evcny word is listened ta imtently. Praeeedings listened ta thene mcant much mare ta those who attend the sessions than the im- pression anc gathers fnom a bogged down pregnam indicated by Newspaper beadllnes. The W. I. is represemted in a cansulting capacity. The World Health Pro- gram cansists ai promotion ai mental, physical and social bealth, nat iust absence from disease. Dr. Margaret McCready, Dean at MacDonald Institute, Guelph, spoke an "Womcn as Home Econ- amists." Women, especially in rural arcas must be realîsts wben it cornes ta the need ai decent wonking- conditions and home hclp. Women need time out with and without their busbancts, especially where thene are yaung cbildren. This is impassible in tea many rural homes. Dr. Me- Cneady has a visian af a training scbool for home helpers which will give graduates a social stand- ing equal ta stenographers and other office workers. A special treat was aiionded the gathering by Mrs. Le"i Tomlin- son af Jamaica who was a visitor in the city. She accepted an in- vitation ta address the conven- tion and said that after a few days in Canada she had decided that Canadians do flot advertise themselves enough. As head of the rural group in social weJfare in Jamnaica Mrs. Tamiinson toid af their problems in a land con- servation programn and of the pests ta be controlled in agricul- ture. The Jr. Institute Girls' Clubs did fine work in demonstrating arm, wrist and finger bandaging, decorating and furnishing a girl's raom and the care of gloves, shoes and clothing Brampton High Scbool Glee Club provided a musical program and Mrs Alex McKinney outlined the history oi agricultural socie- tics in speaking for the fail fairs. The following day resolutions wene deait with, asking for many social reforms. Study Water Levels As They Effect Spawning of Trout A survey has been initiated by the Department ta determine the effect af iluctuating water levels on the natural reproduction of lake traut in Halîbunton lakes. It is necessary ta determine whene and at wbat depth the lake trout are actually spawning. In order ta daoits, eggs sbauld be recovered fromn the gravel and rock rubble over wbich trout ac- tivity has been observed. In al probabiiity, the trout that spawn in deep water are the only ones that contnibute anything ta the reproduction af the species in such lakes. Water levels and depth af ice aven the spawnîng areas wiil be checked at intervals throughout the fali, winter and early spring, or until the eggs have hatched. It is some consolation ta note that mast af the large draw- downs on Haliburton lakes are efiected bei are the traut go an ta the shoals and spawn. Peru has the highest af the Andes Mountains. They tower 19,000 feet. A j. WHEW ! 1 WHAT A WEEK! Finst, let me explain that last wcck's column made veny enjey- able rcading due te the singular fact that we had a guest column- ist. Lorna Wanrack, a last yean's graduate af B.H.S., new an the Statesman staff, is the girl whe reponted an the Hallowe'en panty, and we are vcry grateful te ber. Thnce clubs ai the Lit. Society held initiai meetings last wcek. A geed turneut te the Record Club clccted Jerry Piper as lead- er along with two helpens, Janet Dale and Catherine Teeple. They have decided to keep Wcdncsdays for their me±ings, be it cither at neen or ai ter four. Any ai the diffenent types ai records can be used, as, we understand, Jackie Elliott bas secuned the lean af a new three-spccd player from home. The Drama Club met Thursday, when it was decidcd that meetings would be held te coincide with the production an which they weuld be wonking. It was aise decided that a student sheuld direct each productien. Time wili pessibly be spent in wniting piays and studying the science ai staging. Temonnew <Friday) we are geing ta classif y ourselves as te the dif- fenent types af chanacten we can pertnay (strictly ion fun). If you would like te jein, bring yeur lunch ta fifth form. Th. Art Club wili meet Mon- days aiter schooi in lA unless othenwise announced. Miss Smca- ton will direct the club and thus it is beund te become anc ai the mest popular i.nd active clubs yet fonmed. Velîcybail bas aise made its de- but although littie free time bas been feund fer it. In the vanieus games: 2A defeated 2B, 2C de- featcd lA, 2A dcfeatcd 1C, and lB dcfcated lA. If any girl did net have a good time at the Twirp Dance, Friday, she can only blame it on herseli. Althaugh no rules wene given, it was generally assumed that the gzirl bad the privilege ai asking the boy ta dance, since she was also required ta faat the bill. That, for those ai you who are stili in doubt, is the meaning ai that beautiful word twirp-«'The Wo- man Is Rcquired To Pay." The muuic for the dance, provided via record by Gary Parkhiil, was ex- ccedingly goad. Saturday night about fiity stu- dents and teachers attended a presentatian by the Earl Grey Playens ai Tweiith Night, in New- castle. It was really gond and much marc enjoyable than the av- erage Hiollywood movie. Yes, this is the same anc that Shakespeare wrete! TOO MUCH WASTAGE If rejects in normal manuiac- turing were ta run aven two or three per cent, management wauld have cause for seriaus ai- arm. Yct in the secondary schools af Canada, less than bahf the stu- dents who start reach the gradu- ation stage, reports The Fiman- cial Post. Quoting from the recent report ai the Canadian Research Cam-. rnittee an Practical Education, Dr. G. E. Hall, president ai the Uni- versity of Western Ontaria. in a recent address, pointed out that even among the better-than-ave- rage students, about 25% filed ta compiete high school. Ini the average intelligence group thec proportion was 60% af the boys and450% af the girls. It is not lack ai finances that is responsible for this poor showing. The main reason, reports Dr. Hall, is laclc ai interest in further schooling on the part of the stu. dents themselves. This, says The Post, indicates that samethlng is seriously lack- ing in aur system ai public edu- cation. Many have daubts pandered the familiar lines ai Shakespeare: This abave ail: ta thine own self be truc, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thau canst mot then be false to any man. Words are not always the aux. Mies of Truth. The spirit, and flot the letter, performs the vital functians ai Truth and Love. Q $ 1300 i H O O P E R,'S Jewellery, and Gif t Shop PRONE 747 DUH.S.
