To - Legendary Ontario Patriarch Pictured Lake Erie Baron By Fred Coyne Hamil, Macmillan, 326 pages, Illustrated, notes, bibli- ography index, end-paper maps, $5. Canada's noted for its rugged individual: ists and none exceeded Colonel Talbot in -achievement and cccentricity. Upper Canada, he became al- most a legendary figure in his lifetime, esteemed by few and exgggaled by many. A cadet of one of the most ancient Anglo- Irish baronial families, the Tal- bots of Malahide, he renounced a promising army career for the life of a pioneer and backwoods- man in what is now Southwest- ern Ontario. He found the an- cient country of the Neutral In- wilderness. When he died, a half-century later, he had changed this vast stretch of swamp and forested land into prosperous settlements with comfortable homes and thriving villages, all linked together with good roads. : Dr. Fred Coyne Hamil pens a fascinating portrait and only modern complete biography of this patriarch of Southwestern Ontario leading his people out of the wilderness into a prom- ised land of plenty. His avowed ambition to hew out a baronial estate from a generous land grant was' further stimulated by his appointment as government agent to locate, settlers. on Crown "waste lands' and superintend their performance of settlement duties. He quickly took advan- tage of this extension of author- ity and, at one time, his rule "from Long Point, on Lake Erie, to the Detroit River, a distance > of 150 miles, was as despotic as that of his feudal ancgstors. { An aristocrat by ibirth and tradition, he was an autocrat by by Laune Whelan Just about everything your darling wants -- in ONE pat- tern!

You will want to order every pew design in it pioneer era was" A founder of, nature, The surname Talbot was derived from an ancient, if ex- tinct, breed of bloodhound, and the colonel was keen to scent, rebellious tendencies. Moreover, he had a temper as red as the - lion "rampant gules" -on his coat-of-arms and the courage bequeathed him by six centur- ies of warrior ancestors. With an administrator of such a back- ground almost anything might happen--and almost everything did happen. - The author is to be congratul- ated upon_his skilled selection of material, which presents a vivid portrait of the Colonel in his various moods and activi- ties. Implusive and aggressive, he fancied himself a "benevo- lent despot 'who was the father of his people. and his settle- ment"; and he acted this pater- nal role with faultless exacti- tude. Settlers who worked hard and fulfilled their duties had little to fear; but the slothful and land speculators felt the flail of his wrath. His grants of land were as arbitrary as his rule. The settler ha dhis name pencilled on the record of his lot, If he dealt faithfully by the requirements he eventually received the deed; if he failed to meet his obliga- tions, his name was rubbed out and a new _one inserted. Not in- frequently the Colonel erased a half-dozen names from a spe. cific lot before a settler was found to meet his rigid require- ments. This policy of grant and erasure was frowned upon by the Government and the Colonel was more than once forced to "visit England to plead his case, 'Dr. Fred Coyne Hamil, an as. sociate .. professor of history at Wayne University, Detroit, has written a magnificent biography."

We notice it more, I sup- pose, after the warm, sunny weather we have been enjoying just lately. Gardens around here are still bright with colour -- geraniums, petunias, "and chrysanthemums, and even "nasturtiums, as we have not yet had even one killing frost. The weather thas been grand for all the geranium slips I planted about 'three weeks ago. They are still outside in their pots, doing far better in the rain than they would in the house. While I was at it I repotted two big ferns and a begonia and started a philodendron from the parent plant. Visitors came along last week and took away over a dozen geranium slips and yesterday I pulled up three big plants for a friend so she could take off as many slips .as she liked, . In the house I have been hav- ing a wonderful time . .. "red- ding up", no less .. , and keep- ing Partner busy burning all the stuff I have been throwing out, And it really took courage be- cause I hate to throw things away. However, I wag determin- ed that this time I would really make a clearance. Magazines and papers were tled up ready for the next paper drive -- and tied up without being looked - over first! That's the part that takes courage. Start sorting them out and- you're lost. 'You know haw it goes . . . better save this magazine, there's a good article ~here on making use "of your spare time! Well, that certainly can be thrown out .. what we ! really want to know is how to find spare time. So... it, didn't "take long to get the magazines together once I had decided not to look through them. Then I attacked cdds and ends of woollen and cotton goods left over from dresses, drapes and pyjamas. Small usable ' pieces went into one box for quilt tops; big pieces for rugs. The best part of old: sheets was reserved for pillow. covers: 'the rest for dusters and floorcloths. Then I got into my writing ma- terial . . , carbon copies of sto- ries and articles written years ago. Some of them rejects, some published and forgotten. In fact I found enough scribbling paper to last me the rest of my life. -Discarded 'wearing apparel was another. problem. By the time things are not fit. for us to wear «they -are not much good for any- thing else either. So . . . off "with the buttons; rip up the seams, cut off the collars and presto -- more con- tributions for-braided rugs. The same with' old drapes -- faded but lots of wear in them vet. Mixed with brighter strips faded goods never show up in a rug. Then I got into a cupboard where Bob's treasures aré hid- den. 1 brought them into the 1 Youre TIRED ALL THE TIME Everybody gets a bit run-down now and then, tired-out, heavy-headed, and maybe bothered by backaches.

They're giving a mock fueling demon- stration before a civilian audience where ground-to-air Nike - missile centers are being set up. Deadly rockets, the Nikes are designed to intercept enemy bombers should an attack ever be made on key cities. 1 THIS HORROR SHOW ISN'T -- This grim "death-head" is really the remains of an airplane fuselage used in a fire-fighting de- monstration. The Department of Aeronautics at Bradley Field in Windsor Locks was showing airport officials the use of dry chemicals for fighting airplane fires. a light of day. Later, Bob was here so I took him upstairs, "Look, this 'stuff of yours -- what can I throw out? Most of it army relics -- duffel bag, canvas belts, service berets, radio earphones, water-bottle and canteen -- what's thé good of it all?" Alas I came up against a brickwall. "Throw them out.. what for? Put everything to- gether in one box and forget about it. Those canvas belts might come in darn handy some day. And I might want this . . . and this . . . and this!" "Well, why don't you take the stuff home with you?" - "Heck, you've got more stor- age room here than we have." So that's that. The things must be kept -- but it is I who am stuck with them--plus a whole pile 'of aircraft magazines. Partner, also, has been bitten with the "redding up" bug. He has been spending his evenings . the last two weeks making a braided doormat from baling twine. And I'nv telling you, it's quite a nat. Just think of the yards and yards of baling twine that has been burnt or is still hanging up in scores of barns across the country. Some of it may have been made into halter ropes or into mats as Partner has been doing -- but I expect most of it is being wasted because no -one has time to deal with it. If you just stop to think it is almost criminal the amount of stuff that is being wasted year ins and year out. In towns garbage collectors are paid to take away stuff that there should be a use for -- cans, bottles, waste paper and so on. And then more money is spent on incinerators to get rid of the accumulated waste from thousands of homes where there isn't so much as a kitchen stove to burn a paper _ bag. And with_everything wrap- ped and double-wrapped these days, waste paper, in" some homes, becomes quite a problem. Unavoidably, we do our share of wasting too, but not with paper. All afternoon we have had a lovely fire burning in the living-room, using no other fuel than tightly rolled newspapers. Paper logs, 1 call them.
