A. nd flot just concerning dogs cither. One vegetable gardener lias littie hope of seeing anything for his efforts, as cats keep digging up ail his prospective crop. As cats owners are flot required by law to keep their animais unider restraint, unlike dog owners, I'm not sure what the answer is to this problem. Tho' one lady may be showing us the way - she keeps lier cat on a long leash when lie is out in lier garden. Per- haps if we ail showed similar consideration towards our neighbours feelings and didn't wait for laws that make us take such'steps, maybe the world would be a better place to live in. This goes for other "nuisance" areas - excess noise, garbage etc., as well as for pets. Councillor Gerry Emm called withi a reassuring message for the "poor road condition protesters". [t seems that the wet Spring that we had caused delays in the works prograimme, but he has hopes that there will be littîe cause to complain very shortly.

AGE *__ BOY -GIRL SCHOOL 1 st Session 2nd Sesson___ A different vacation idea for Canadians can be found in India. Houseboats can be rented on Dal Lake at Srinagar, Kashmir, for as little as $15.00 per day per couple. This price includes a com- pletely furnished boat, f ood, maids and cook. Climate in Kashmir during the summer months of lune, July and August is ideal. Houseboat in Kash m ir Indian vacation idea K ASHMIR, India - As Canadian travellers be- come more sophisticated from year to year, many sum mer vacation ideas sceem old bat. A trip to Europe, the cottage, or camping can actudlly be- come commonplace after a while. The question of how to spend those summer vacation hours in a different manner becomes more perplexing. India certainly bas one ans- wer to the problem, and flot an expensive one at that. How about a houseboat in Kashmir for as low as $15.00 per day per couple? This price includes a completely furnished boat, food, maids and cook! Which is pretty difficult to equal. And for unbelievably beau-' tiful landscape. Kashmir is hard 10 beat during lune, July and August. This Indian state, slightly smaller than Great million inhabitants, is in the heart of Asia. Few people real- ize it is further north than Tibet. The climate in Kashmir dur- ing the summer months is ideal. Today, there are a variety of races, national costumes and traditions in Kashmir. For the overworked Canadian, Kashmir can be exactly the right tonic. The Dal Lake, near the capital city of Srinagar, is a major attraction. This is where the houseboat reigns supreme. The houseboat was inve»ted near the end of the last century because of a Maharajah's edict prohibiting land ownership. So, people took to the water, and brought the houseboat into being. Today, the houseboat bas turned into a haven for tourists. Evening cocktails on the upper deck, with a sunset over the towering Himalayas,is a moment not to be forgotten.
