Bernard Freedman is noted for his rganizing ability and the in- creasing interest in chess in Can- da, is unquestionably due to his nthusiastic interest in its de- elopment in this country, special- y among the young people. Some ave raised the question whether e can play chess as efficiently as e can organise the game, there- ore we print the game played ome 25 years ago, and also for ur readers information, state hat Bernard beat Mr. J. B. Mor- ison, in 1934 at Haileybury. Ont. r. Morrison is Past Dominion hampion. We are advised that he reason Mr. Freedman does not ppear in competition very often a that He prefers to concentrate is energies on organising. 12. 13. 14. 16. 16. 20. M.

We had decided to lodge in cauins, not without a little trepidation as our knowledge of such accommo- dation was nil. We realize now it can be very pleasant experience. It is possible to find scrupulously clean cabins, heated if necessary, with Marshall mattresses on the beds, showers etcetera, usually for less cost per night than an hotel room. We set off on a Mon- day morning (not a holiday Mon, day) after packing a bag of clothes apiece with a thought to change of weather, a picnic ham- per of canned goods, lots of Ber. viettes, a primus stove, billy cans a small kettle and a minimum amount of tableware. This mini- mum reduced us to amusing situa- tions at times but it saved dish- washing and on our return the sight of our silver and table lim:n made us feel positively affluent. With deck chairs folded in the jack of the car, maps and our copy of Ontario Guest Service at hand, we were off and stopping only once or twice for a bite and a cup of coffee en route we leisurely cov- ered about one hundred and ten ‘miles of The King's Highway T-?. ‘and arrived at Presqu'ile Point. Until we found accommodation ‘for the night we had decided to leave the picnic possibilities mi- determined and picked out the most promising looking snack bars. Woodmere lodge which also had cabins for guests gave us our first taste of cabin life. As their cabins were not housekeeping ones the Get yourself a good companion, mine was my husband, tune up your car and I promise you a pleasant week if you are friends with the weatherman. Your route might be in a totally different part of Ontario than the one we took; it might in fact be anywhere in Canada or The States but to be really efective it should be new to you.

A" Pleasant Week But We Are Still Open For Business By Louise Linton KB? Q-NG KxR K-B2 K-B3 K-34 At the hotel dock was moored a beautiful sailboat which had travelled under sail manned by only three men acmss the Atlantic from England via the British West Indies, taking twenty-two days for the trip. It is to leave Presqu'- ile heading for The Panama Canal and The Pacific in Sept. For $2.50 one could take a morning or afternoon. trip of two hours from the bay onto, Lake Ontario and back. From the lakeshore on Wed- nesday morning, as a storm arose, we watched it dipping up one rol- ler then down into the next and wondered how the passengers were faring. As the Lodge guests responded to the breakfast bell Tuesday morning we tasted the first fruits of our freedom: bathed and dres- sed at Jeisure then retraced out steps to the beach on the lakesi,ic. There was not a soul for miles while we cooked our breakfast, This routine we followed until we left Presqu’ile. The Presqu'ile' lights are tltt1nttg the oldest on the Lake and were planned in 1727. The main light of the fantastic Grit Light has been shining since 1840. As we drove away the words on an an- cient marker of an old sett'rcr‘s tombstone told us that 'nn von- der sand dunes lie the remains of the first settlers of Brighton dis- trict, Obadiah Simpson of North Carolina 1755-1809 and his wife Mary Lord of West Chester Coun- ty N.Y. 1760-1808 United Empire Loyalists. De Lanceys Regiment settled on lot 4 Con 2, then ann ship of Cramahe now Township of proprietress must, have thought we lived on air during ouri'stay. We drove off as soon as we un- packed our clothes and taking our picnic supplies drove to the Lake- shore. We were rewarded for not dining at the Lodge. Presqu'ile as it's name implies is almost an is- land, really a curved peninsular poking out into Lake Ontario. The lakeshore has been preserved as a natural park and picnic grounds. Miles of lakeshore bays covered with tiers of small flat pebbles and farther inland reforrestated in strategic spots with northern pines spruce and fir, is a spot of beauty to gladden the heart of anyone who loves the outdous. Returning to the cabin to swim in the bay, we discovered an ever- green-arched road which we de- cided to explore in the morning. We realized that the lure of Pretsqu'ile could keep us prisoner for the rest of our week so made a firm decision to first visit the lighthouse then leave for Hali- button. . Tums AND GUIDE. WESTON -Continued on page 5 Carriers are now paid ten cents for every new customer they re- port, four weeks after the date of reporting them. And of course, the larger the route, the more money the boys are able to make. If you want regular carrier de- livery, phone Zone 4-239, and you will be added to the list of nur friends made through our force of.carrier boys and girls. A Problem _ A problem which more than ore of our carriers has mentioned re- cently is the case of the "moving debtor." Perhaps we are all more or less familiar with the people who run away from debts, but this isn't the kind of person of whom we are speaking. No, it. is just any ordinary citizen', who when he or she moves to another street or an- other district, just neglects to tell the T & G carrier and myth due amount. It's probably just a matter of 5, 10, or 20 cents, but to the carrier that amount may mean quite a lot, especially when they are saving to go to the Ex- hibition or for Christmas presents (not already. please). And re- member too, that the carrier must pay for every paper he or she takes out of this office and mun-- ally suffer a loss if a paper de, livered is not a paper paid for. Probably you are not planning on doing any moving, but, if you are or will be, please remember your T & G carrier. Thanks, we know you will. Due to the hard work of the T & G carriers, the contest was a successful one am! brought in more than two hundred and twenty new customers in a three mmth period. (220, that is). When this little column is being written, the party for T & G car- rier boys and girls has, as yet, not been held and the prozes nut yet presented to the Ist and 2nd winners, Paul Roe and Richard, Yerex respectively. But we add here our belated congratulations to the boys who did a swell job. Also to all those carriers who did a fine job in the contest and kept the leaders on their toes. Contest is Success "Going around behind the per- son you are rescuing prevents him from grabbing you," Gus shouted. "It also plncys him in a good posi- tion for towing." That made-Gus about his -tirut order. ' "When rescuing a person," he yelled, "always swim behind him." I steered around behind the little boy. He tried to grab me again, but he eouldn't reach me. I wasn't worried about making my first mucus. After all, Gun Ryder wu standing on the dock shouting irutruetiona. And In well " being 'supervisor of my cum).

I looked up and found that I had already arrived right at the end of the column. "This hold protects you from the person you are towing," he con- tinued. "Grab his wrist and swim strongly if he is struggling. And remember, in most cases rescue il on its way and most accidents take place a short distance from safety." "First,' he said, "grab his hair and swim, using your free arm for stTkitur.", _ - I found that worked, and " though the boy could struggle, he didn't interfere with my swim- ming. Excellent One Gus shouted again. "The cross-chest carry is a little more difficult," he said, "but In excellent hold. Cross one arm over the boy's chest and under his arm. Then press your hip into his back and use your other em to stroke to safety." - "No, no, Elmer," Gun shouted.
