can wander around to your hearts content and if you dont want to nobody will bother you Very different from city stores in general where it is a common experience for clerks to dive down on you We can say however that to the fullest extent were patrons of home industry As we think we should we move round from store to store thus trying to give alt an equal share of our small family needs We believe have been in almost every store in town since our settlement here We have always been an ar dent supporter of the individual merchant as we have always been an advocate of private en terprise Our purchases at Jim Wilsons store were not by any means considerable a couple of dollars worth of goods But we received as much courtesy as if we had spent Thai is Jims secret of success an easy friendly

when we entered Of barbers the following ex tracts are from a book we have in our collection The trade of a barber is clean simple and ab solutely essential I know noth ing so necessary apart from food clothing and shelter as the presence among us of bar bers Barbers are often blamed for talking too much whereas thoy are often more sinned against than sinning Barbers are a bravo and a cheerful class of tradesmen They luxuriate in nil that appertains to beauty in head and face and their souls retain the innocence of cherubs Surely Jack with his own fund of wit will appreci ate the above quotation- For wo- left his emporium feeling better as our good wife assured us oven looking better We met Dick Buchanan on Saturday and were glad to see him looking fit after a long spell of months sickness We know Dick as member of the recrea tion commission who was in from the start lie is deeply interested in its activities and in its future success fie is an easy man to work with in

to meet increasing needs We have more to any oh this at later date Meanwhile we were glad to hear of the sue cess the store is- exper iencing With the warm sunny days of last week our thoughts fly to much enjoyed vacations of other years and we begin to plan for this summers holidays I had a small guest the other day and to entertain her and myself I brought out a handful of picture postcards and if she was enter tained as much as I entertained myself then there is no cause for complaint How picture postcards take you back to happy summer out ings and it seems but a week or so ago instead of that many years your memories are so clear and vivid Some cards of Belie Fountain for instance re call what a charming spot that is and you hope most sincerely that someone has taken it over and restored the oldtime beauty It is in the wonderful Caledon Hills near the forks of the Cred it Another postcard was Billy Bear Camp at Bella near HuntsviMc what memories that card called up That was years ago and it sure was a wild trail lending into it is also along the same trail but it must be far easier to reach by now I recall we passed a liny deserted hamlet called with gaunt houses the very soul of desolation in such a Pickering College boys used to take winter trips up there to in those days wonder if they do still Still another card shows the little steamer Cherokee enter ing the narrows of Muskoka Lakes showing the rocks and evergreens so typical of that region Another was the Anglican church at Bala and I studied it hard to see if the church bell was still on a sort of framework the front steps for there was no tower or steeple on the little church I wonder is it still there I recall it wasnt far from the bridge but theres no date on the card The Cowley Fathers may have ser vice there as in many other pla ces in Muskoka Then another card still of a place near there but in Bala Park called Inn whore we spent one summer holiday before war No And still another card recalled delightful memories It is called View from the verandah The Canadian Inn Quite jnear there if you remember is situated the wonderful garden I told a few years ago in the delightful surroundings of Lady Batons summer homes now in others hands The glory of that garden still haunts me and a friend whom we met there living in Washing ton always reminds me of it in her letters and of our en joyment of its beauty Oh what memories a small piece of card hoard can recall Still another is Balm Beach on the Bay there is ano ther lovely spot as are all the beaches along that wonderful I shore is to the northeast of Wasaga nearer and I not far from Thunder Bay and near a new subdivision called Blue Water Beach Years ago when visiting In we visited these lovely benches oh and I also went Ion camp meet ing of Indians on their reserve on the Christian Islands Oh what wonderful places there are to visit on your sum mer holidays So lovely and so interesting Just see what a handful of
