B OIV&MVI.LE.ONTAIMO PAEEa TmmSDMAT, OCT. @th, lm6 THE SLAZONED WOODS Each year the glolous colars oi the Autumn trees crowningc the his and carpetlng the val- leys, came as a shock ta aur eyes and spirit. The colors are so vlvid, the beauty sa lncred- ible and spread with sucb a lavish band, that we ask our- selives, is It passible? Sa much beauty, there for ail ta see and cherisb *ho are blessed wîtb Sa mucb beauty ta store up ia tbe mind's eye and record on color film for the nigbts wben the wet wind blows or the snaw swirls in a world bare oi leaves and life and color until anather Spring, another Au- tumn. Witb the perfecting oi colon film, more and more people ae taking clor pictures, and Fal ofiers>the ,most spectacular OP- portunities ta colar enthusiasîs. All alang the roed tbrough the Maliburton lake district lpst Sunday, people were stopped. getting shots ai a color bacýk- drap behind the Octaber blue ai the water. Wiben winter winds howl and the woods stand stark and bare, these lucky people will be nelliving that perfect Autumn Sunday with the pictures so carefully taken. Everywhere aiong the way too, fromn the time we st'arted out in the morning until aur return in late afternoon, picnic hampers were out on roadside tables and hungry families were enjoying good food in the clear, crisp air, warmed by a welcome sun. We had ours by Maple Lake, near St. Peter's Anglican Church, the lovely stone church we have told you about before, which somehow seems so un- expected in that sparsely set- tled country. Prose is of little use in this magîc season of the year, phrases from the poets are s0 much more satisfying.

The dey we went ta Elmira, we wenk on up ta Arthur, Mount Forest, Durham and across ta Kincardine. It was wonderful ta see that great expanse of blue water aiter travelling in dry, lnland country. With 'a real sense of expcc tation we started south'to God- erich along the famed 1Blue Water Highway". We kept loaklng for the waters af La k e Huron ta came in vlew again- but we looked in vain. We saw Lake Huron again at Gaderlch. We felt flot only let dawn, but pasitively gypped, na other Word wlll do. That highway is flot nearly as much oaiaa"blue water hlghway"ý as 401 beside Lake Ontario. Ini fact the for- mer is simply net a water high- way at ail. It is an out end out misnomer, and we would like ta ask the Minister ai Travel and Publicity for Ontario why it is flot only sanctioned, but widely advertised as such, lur- ing helpless motorlsta from the U.S. and Canada ta travel a lakeshore route which daesn't exisi? We think it is very un- fair, and very poor "public re- lations", much as we hate that phrase. Our own Highway 401 is a beautiful road, thraugh beauti- fui and typical Ontaria caun- try-side, with frequent views ai the shore llne and wide wa- ters ai Lake Ontaria. With a goad amount ai truth, one cau]d caîl it a "Blue Water Highway". The best and truest example ai a water highway is Na. 33, es- ecially framn Adolphustawn ta Kingston. The waters ai the Bay ai Quinte and Lake On- taria lap the shore only a iew yards away irom the road ai- mast every mile ai the way. And we understand from thase who have travelled on down No. 2 along the St. Lawrenceý from Kingston thraugh it Quebec, that the river isie quently in view. Sa haw about it? We won- dered as we turned off at Gad- erich ta corne acrass ta Strat- fard, just haw many thausands ai motarists eech year have feit as bewildered and annay- ed as we did. We have plenty ai beauty spots and attractions in Ontario far travellers from without and within. It seems ta us faolish and unfair teala- law such misrepresentations as naming a highway a "Blue Wa- ter Highway" because it runs parallel ta Lake Huron-yet out ai sight oai t. NOT ONLY THIS BUT EVERY DAY We have every reason ta be thankful, most ai us, as we ap- proach the day Wvhich this rich country ai ours bas set aside for thankful observance. Wei have food, and peace, and beau- ty. Our hearts shouid be full, nat just on Thanksgiving Day, but every day. Especlally should those af us wbo are well] be fervently thankful for the gift oi health, and aur prayers be with thase wha are without this priceless gift. 7H! EMAIN TIING I04 IMANKFuL FOR.
