New scenic thrills await the tou- rist taking the trip up the Pacific Coast to Alaska. The ever-chang- | | cler scenery is primitive, rugged ana unspoiled in its natural beauty. Mountains, towering higher than the Alps, hold the onlooker spell- bound. Glaciers, compared with which those of Switzerland are in- significant, creep slowly down the mountainside, lacing the brown tone of the rock with their incomparable blue-green beauty. The Malaspino Glacier is fifteen hundred square miles in area--an irresistible force slowly grinding its way to the sea. Rivers of every size and temper are to be seen from the tiny musi- cal rill gurgling its way to join some larger, more torrential river, to the placid swift-flowing Yukon with its course within a few miles of the sea, but wandering twenty- three hundred miles to reach it. From June until September each mountain base is smothered in a tangle of wildflowers. Blue lupines, wild | pink peas, huge bluebells, rosy-hued fireweed, areas of gold and white daisies and larkspur, blend in- to a riot of color. The Northern Lights--misty fans of light, or a colossal arc spanning the earth like a huge rainbow from horizon to horizon, cast a mystic glow through the night. In primitive Indian villages, gro- tesque Totem Poles biograph the superstitious beliefs of the natives. Cities steeped in romance en- Hance the spell Alaska weaves for all who visit this lovely land. Ju- neau and Skagway--founded by the Russians, were used as supply bases by the 'early gold-seekers and still hold much of interest for the visi- tor. Visit Alaska this summer--travel by Canadian National Railways to Vancouver and there board a pala- tial Canadian National Steamer for the five-day voyage through shelter- ed Scenic Seas, rugged magnificence marks every mile of the journey -- luxurious comfort aboard ship com- pletes the enjoyment of this most wonderful of boat trips. Any Canadian National Agent will supply illustrated literature and full information. -------- Took Thumb Off. While operating a sawing machine on the farm of John Bissonette, near Lombardy, Ernest Bissonette, son of Mr. and Mrs. James Bissonette, suf- fered a badly mutilated thumb when his left hand was drawn under the circular saw and the thumb was cut to the bone. The wound was s0 Sér- fous that it was necessary to operate and the thumb was amputated. On April 18th, at Toronto, Rich- ard Ferguson Green, eldest son of Mrs. S. B. Gearing, Picton, and Ethel Maud Dale, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Dale, were married.

The Citizens Band ac- companied them to and from church. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hubbard, Kingston, spent the week-end here with friends. On Saturday evening a little after ten, a motor car bumper went through ome of the large Wright dry goods windows.

There has been some talk of a court at the town park; also a bowling green there, both of which would likely prove very popular with a large number of our citizens.
