Ontario there are quite a num- ber and we wil mention Ehora fipt. It is north and a littie e ast ai Kitcbener and boasts -besidet its sccnic Gorge along the river, anc ai the fincst and iniait nteresting muscuma wc have scen. It was just opened lait yeen an July 16, and when we were there about the third week in August, there bed been 1900 adult visitons. The museum is on the main street ai Ehara in what wes an oId store. It represents 20 yeans' work by the Wellington * County Histonicel Research Sa- ciety and received the full sup-_ pont, during the hast two ycars, ai the Women's Institutes. There la a wanderful collection ai pioneer furniture, utensils, fanm implements, and costume. Mennonite Market Kitchener, Waterloo and the Grand Valley are ful ai bis- tory. This is Mennonite coun- try whose story is so interest- ingly toid in Mabel Dunham's book, "Grand 1Aiver", elso ber novel, "Trail ai the Conestoga". You might like ta take these along or rcad thcm firat, be- fane travelling that way. If yout j. like bistary at alI, we guaran- tee yau will find them ful ai interest. Kitchener is a thrivin.c cty with beautiful park s, but the most interestmng thing fan the. visitor is the Mennonite Market on Saturdey mornings. This market has the most wonderful display oi good food yau are ever iikely ta see. Men- nonite women are famous for their caoking, and thein men fan farming. Some ai the men and women are in their awn distinctive dress, as are the Amish people. The Amish did nat migrate ta Cari- ada from the United States as did mast Mennonites, but came direct from Germany. Just don't miss seeing this market on a Saturday marning. You'Il be dreaming ai the foad for a long time, and it la made uni- que by the dress and personal- ity ai the Mennonites and Am- ish.

"lIt aonly acquired a physicai exist- ence et Boston," he said. The first message wes sent aven the first long distance ' une between Brantford and Paria, eccording ta bis own words. In Guelph and Geit are very fine exampies ai early atone architecture. A number ai the notcworthy bouses are describ- cd in Kathenine Hale's, "Hi- toric Hauses ai Canada".

Dunduru Clatie At Hamilton thejre 15 LMous Dundurn Castie, home ai Si.r Allan MacNab, built mL. 1832. The Castie is now a rnuseum end is weli worth a visit. Mac- Nab had a most interesting ca- reer, beint a veteran oi the War ai 1812 at ae717, a clever lawyer. and politician, reprçs- entlng Hanmilton for 30 years and rising in the Government; and knighted for his part in putting down the Rebellion ai 1837. The Castie is on the grand scaie and its story, taid ir the bookiet which is sold in the great hall as you enter, is very interesting. The pioneer exhi- bits upstairs are ai interest, and jut goingi throtigh the big roams, the dining-roon, espe- cially, where state banquets were held, is a reai experience. Richard 'Beasley f irst bufit on this site in 1777. Ojd Niagara We have not had the pleas- une ai visiting Niagara-on-the- Lake, but it is ful ai history, being the capital site chosen by. Governor Simcoe (known then as Newark, we believe). He and Mrs. Simcoe lived there, af which she tells in lher diary, a fascinating volume, il- lustrated by her awn very good sketches, and the garrison was 'statîoned there. This diary ia in aur awn iibrary, by the way. At 'Niagara-on-the-Lake are some very aid and fine houses, and St. Andrew's Churcb. Sim- coe later chose York, now Ta- ronto, ta be the capital ai Up- per Canada. We- forgat ta mention Brant House, the reconstructed house ~ oi Joseph Brant, famous Indian chief, at Burlington, now a muséum.

The boys are too tall, have huge feet and banda, pimples, and acutely cansciaus of it, make themselves as ob- noxious as passible, pon lads. They're sa conacioua ai the girls beoming girls that it is painful ta watch them. Coming up the ather side of the street are a couple of fel- lows £rom Buffalo, N.Y. Tbey're about 45. They went up for a beer while "the girls" weiNt shopping. Just one beer, mind you, ta wash down' the dust. Tbey're as menry as a wedding bell and are busy buying tickets ,on boats and cars.

And that dear oid couple along the street is from Rosetown, Sask. They leit here fifty years ago. They toiled through the drought years. They aimost iast the homestead. They raised a big famiy and sometimes there was bareiy enough to eat. But then the good years came aiang, and a hungry world turned wheat into gald. Thd ohd folks are retired -now, and the boys are running the farm. Sa they came back east for a trip, and they're enjaying every minute af it, looking up old friends,1 visiting scenes ai their yauth, and drinking in ail those won- denful tz'ees and that wonderful water. But they're beginning ta get a littie homesick for the prairie. Dad wants ta get home for harvest time and Mother wants ta get back ta ber grand- children.

She leans on the desk and smiles, white teeth flasbîng against tbe brawn ai ber face. You surreptitiously reach araund and pull your wet shirt away from your back, ready for any mad fiing.
