Ransom, PORT PERRY STAR -- Wednesday, July 5,1972 -- 5 Beautiful beaches Canada's Magdalen Islands in the Gulf of the St. Lawrence River contain the most beautiful beaches in the world, according totraveller, writer 'Harry Bruce. Bruce has explored every corner of the globe in search of beautiful "beaches, in- cluding Southern California, Mexico, Antigua, Southern France, the Adriatic coast of Italy, and the Baltic shores of Denmark. The beach sand on Mag- dalen Islands is so fine and crystalline that the islanders export it to foreign glass manufacturers, The small 55,000 - acre archipelago, with a popula- tion of 13,500, is also famous for its flowers. During spring and summer when the hills are ablaze with daisies, buttercups, clover, and other blossoms the fragrance drifts several miles out to sea. Graduates Patricia Marjorie Bray, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Bray of R. R. No. 1, Oshawa graduated June 22 with honours, receiving a "Bruce pin from the Wellesley Hospital School of Nursing, Toronto. Pat was a former graduate of Port Perry High School and Raglan Elemen- tary School. (continued Well, I took our guest home for lunch and we figured out some kind of financial arrangemeBt that would baffle a Phila. delphia lawyer. Took him back to the airport and saw him off. As far asl know, he made it. though a bit wobbly, ~ Then we spotted some young fellows preparing to do some sky-diving. One of them, an old student of mine, rushed up, said hello, and volunteered that this was his first jump. So we decided to watch. We'd known him since he was a bit of an altar-boy. I tried to reassure him by asking which leg he thought he would break, whether he wanted cremation or a regular church service, what kind of flowers he liked, and such. He took it very well face growing whiter, sweat streaming. After a great deal of muddling around, which seems inevitable when people play with boats or aircraft, they took off, three of them. } We watched the perfect blue sky as the aircraft climbed to height. Then out came a brilliantly-coloured chute. It even opened. And it descended into a thick bush, about three miles away. Two more chutes blossomed, drifted down, and both land right in the middle of the airfield. When the first one went into the bush,, I bet my wife $50 to a-filter cigarette that it was John Cardwell. our young friend. It was. A rescue force went out and after half an hour found him dang- ling from a maple tree. By some strange alchemy. I knew it was John. I'd tried to teach him English, He wasn't hurt, and it was a fine Satur- day, and I think I'll take up flying again, and maybe even sky-jumping. -- The Argyle Syndicate CATCH UP ON FOOD COSTS Sop Tag Crystals 479: 3 ; g1 ° Frit Drinks 2:49: 3481.
