Your columnist is no “mamby- pamby" but he, with others, was rlvlighied to read a Times and Guido editorial on this topic in the Sept. 25 issue. i Ten days ago a small para- ‘jgrnph in our daily paper told of {an expert bushman-Taylor Car- ( michael-who came to the defence inf a magnificent deer which was liming hunted down by a savage TO m. wolf, 49 miles north of Massey-in a wild and lonely area.

I Touring Notes Probably some people rvrul in their reading of bank holdups, capture of criminals and follow in every dotuil the court cases that follow. Othvrs take delight in reading stories of unhappy people or take small children to shows that vis- ualize crime. This is the type of Canadian We hhe to read about-a brave mun defending t'y harmless t't'etb- turv azainst an enemy. Those of us that have travelled in tlw north country, and this is "away up" not near Schombcrg llill' oriliia, have met up with such mm, and men they are. hats off to them!

September thirtieth, Senior Publn School wrlmmed twenty-two teachers from Leaside. They went through all the rooms, looking at wrark the pupils were doing ot' at work on tlw wall. In the Social Studies' room the school museum was on display. Included in this display were a charcoal- burning iron, some Italian t?itrrency and newspapers dating back to 1903 from Toronto and Weston. At three o‘clock an assembly was held in the auditorium. The school orchestra played "Carnival of Venice" as the classes assembled. The president nt' the Brefect Coun- cil, Bob Ferrell opened the pm- gramme by introducing Diane Dover who welcomed our visitors. Following that the accotxiionettes played a duet. A speech choir re- cited "Casey at the Bat" while a pantomine was being enaclred on the stage. Michael Palmer gave a speech entitled “This Game Called Golf." The assembly ended with Gar Pink leading the school in the singing of the school song, fol- lowed by God Save the Queen. The Leauide teachers then were served twheshments in the Home 'Economics room by the girls in Form 10. I Christmas Cards Christmas Cards are rolling again for smother year.

Coming home for the evening meal, clearing up his books fur the day and posting them to his head office, he chatted with his son Don. In a few minutes when Don was in another part of the house Mr. McIntyre took a heart attack and passed away. It was a great shock as he was apparently in good health, going about his regular duties with the smile and good fellowship that characterized “his associations in the world. He was in his 61at year and has been a long resident of Weston. Mr. McIntyre was associated with the Christie Brown Company for the past 33 years. He was due for pension and retirement two years ago but felt so fine that he continued. In the early days, he and his brother Alex were up in the Timmins country, before it was open, driving' dog teams over the many lakes. It was said that Andrew would face the Shaw and blizzards with a cartuinty of making his camp. A copy of a nowwapor published in Inida on August l.", mm deliver, mi in London on August 14.

It’s 3 Victor; LP, LM-147. l Richard Strauss' opera, "Der ', Rosenkuvulier," is an involved . story of gay life in the 18th cen- I ' tury Austrian court. He "ranged u , wonderful mite from it which is I available on an early Columbia LP l (ML-4044) played by Oi'mandy Ind . the Philadelphia Orchestra. Large- "lt' the same musicians, known in ‘the summer as the Robin Hood Dell liorchestra, have recorded a very similar suite of "Der Rosenkava- lier’s" major attractions. (Victor iii/L48). Both sets include the fa- mous waltzes and the older Co- lumbia's recording still seeml very good. Victor's, as of 1952, is better «if course. I prefer Dorati's Suite, ‘sliglitly, ' it many will want the (Columbia disc for it's coupling of N'DeuLh and Transfiguration.” Yet this in turn is coupled on a recent Victor with another Sir-nuns work, (Till Eulenspiegel," so the choice ‘is involved. If you want lots of J' Richard Strauss, these two Victor ua' discs would be a wise choice. The Jewish "Kol Nidrei" is a sacred chum used on their Day of 'Atonement, Yom Kippur. Max ‘Bruch, born of German Lutheran parots, wrote a set of variations for 'eello and orchestra on this them, and it is recorded for Victor ly Pablo Casals. It came first on )78's and is now beautifully copied on 33 rpm (LOT-1028). The music (is serous, even sad, but strangely ,quiot and eomforting--deep string 1 tame in lovely long, smooth phrases. "ith it is coupled Boecherini's B i Flat Concerto for 'tFlo, also play- .‘eoL by Pablo Casals. It is a .thoroughly competent and vital ,concertn, even by modern stand- »‘nrds, despite the composer's slight ‘fame.
