This quaint, friendly, country store is located at the north end of Whit- by on the main street of Brooklin. Many years ago, this building was'a country church, whieh was moved to its present location from Win- chester St. %1-For*.years, it housed a dry goods store and the home of the Morley Ross family.

Be sure to wrap up in a muffler or scarf, and of course, you'll need head- gear and boots.. Keep in mind that fab- rics that are slick and cool to. the touch won't be as warm as those that are soft and fluffy.
