Cocoon" « (Continued fiom last week) Take any - fair sized Ontario town. Double the population,. Add a seup- con of Gallic joie de vie. Fold in a diplomatic corps. Sprinkle liberally with government buildings. Garnish to taste with civil servants. Serve on the bluff of a river and you have Ottawa. For a long time the site of Ottawa was but' another promontory along the river to_lengthen the travail of the fur traders; just one more point for Champlain to pass. (Scarcely the ideal partner for a game of bridge, that man), By the year 1817 its pop- ulation was J. B. Honey, who shortly thereafter sold most of his land to Nicholas Sparks. Sparks had: saved the. $240 necessary to make the pur- shase while in the employ of Philemon Wright. This Wright was.a Massa- chusetts man, who had led a party of some thirty New Englanders to the present site of Hull in 1800, and who had prospered there. Sparks .also did rather well by his investment. ... Caleb Bellows and Isaa¢ Firth kept, respectively, a store and tavern near Sparks constituted in its entirety the population of what now is' Ottawa when this spot was chosen as the northern terminus of the Rideau Canal by the Imperial Government. The purpose of building the canal was to by-pass the Yankee forts along rence River. Colonel By aivived. in 1826 to take charge of. the construction and the settlement which rapidly grew up was named Bytown in his honour. The cornerstone of the locks was. laid by the Arctic Explorer, John Franklin, in 1827; a year which also saw the eréction of. a bridge to connect By- town with Hull. The canal was com- pleted in 1832, : Bytown grew "rapidly, though for a number of years-its streets were so muddy that cows returning through | them to their barns had to be washed before they were milked. A natural arsenal so ready to hand could scarce- ly be overlooked by any of the politi- SE) government in. 1864. Richmond Landing, and they with Js scenic beauty and solitude. the New York side of the St. Law-. cal parties whih it came to choosing a capital. Bytown, however, was by no means the prototype of present-day Ottawa. By no means! . The population was heterogeneous. consisting of largely.of discharged soldiers and Irish labour- ers, The lumber industry was- -begin- ning to flourish in the Valley, and fun-loving lumberjacks began to pour inte town. Judiciously mix ex-soldiers; Irishmen, lumberjacks and whiskey, and who cares about the atom bomb? Certainly, life in Bytown, though often short, could not have been dull. The Irish must have though they were in Paradise. ! . Riproaring, swashbuckling, - sinful, ginful Bytown could not last. Many of the sinners met violent ends, some drifted away, a few died natural deaths at the end of a rope. Respect- ability claimed Bytown. name was changed to Ottawa; again, probably, to do honour to Colonel By who was, after all, respected as an officer and 'a gentleman, Stephen Leacock says, It became the seat of It had the merit No enemy from the States would ever find it," There is' no more "lovely cipitall in the world. than Ottawa, and none where the nearby fishing is as good. Its beautiful Parliament Buildings are situated on a high bluff thrust into a bend*of-the river which thus borders them on three sides. From the height of the Peace Tower a gracious pano- rama lies spread before the eyes. Thé government- buildings; "the winding Ottawa with Hull in the foreground; to the north the seriated ridge® of the Gatineau Hills fading into the blue of the horizon: the Rideau Canal, lined with greenery, bisecting the city; and, finally, the suburbs blending into the rich farmlands beyond; all these paint an unforgettable picture on the mem- ory. iz - - ee The climate is 'generally temperate though in the sultry days of summer captious "citizens 'have been heard to exclaim that Ottawa, despite-an ele- vation superior to that of its sister In 1866 its |. city across the river, is as hot as Hull, . Among many other things, Ottawa | is notable for its mayor who proves | that Emmeline Pankhurst's soul goes | § bravely marching on, and for a muni< 5 cipal government which has demon. strated that a city hall .is but an{# anachronism in modern civic affairs. The regeneration of Bytown as Ot: " tawa is a source of pride to the Sally | Ann. It fulfils the latter's promise that " a town may be down but it's never out." Its Horatio Alger-like rise from the wide-open wickedness of ¥ a frontier town to the stately emi-|§ ence of 4 great national capital is an example for any town which may lean a'trifle to the left of righteousness. Yet Bytown in the bad old days must have been--well--interesting. (Taken from "The Official Weekly Road Bulletingof Ontario.)

Russell of Utica, was presented last Sunday afternoon, with the gift. of a La-z-y Boy Chair, Mr.: Russell is in his sighty-fiist year. Born in Proton Township, in Grey County; near the town of Dun- dalk, where he pursued farming for many years, he and Mrs. Russell have spent the last six years in the Utica district. He is the type that does not quickly learn to take life easy, and his- family conceived this plan. as one by which their 'father might be "{n- duced to act his years, Hence the chair and its suggestion of ease. The address was read by one of Mr. Russell's daughters, the roses to Mrs. Russell were presented by one. of the "| grand-daughters, and a friend, Mr. 'George Kight, unveiled the chair at the appropriate moment. Mr. Russell made a fitting response and invited all present to test the comfortable quality of .the gift. - - - -- Two' Shows' Nightly--1 and 9 pam. > THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY, AUGUST 28-29-30 Dale Robertson and 'Anne Francis In thé Record New.

So Buick engineers aren't content just to mix that drop with air and touch it off. They've designed an engine that brings it catapulting into a cylinder head where it strikes a turbo- top piston--gets whipped into a' churning, swirling ball of tight-packed energy. Then it's fired. And when that happens, a drop of gasoline certaimly lets loose power.
