PAGE ~o~m UT CAIiAD!AII STATEUA3I. OWMANY!LE.ONTAM THMIPMAY, MAY,3O2M IMO Current ~ and Con fidential. By Elsie Carruthers Lunney BLOWN ON A MAT WIND A ncwscaster a couple ai Wveeks ega told his listeners ai the beauties that might be seen by molarisîs thet weekencl. Thaugh apple orchards were drifts ai fregrant blassoms at that time, he maae nat ane mention ai Ibeir fragile beuty. Aiter ail these ycars, we are somcwhet used ta the attitude ai Toronto newspapers and broadeasters, thal nothing wor- thy ai note exists east ai that city (unlcss in the fer east), s0 we werc bardly surprised Ihat this. caunty's apple orchards were ignored. But there was .no mention cither ai the Geargian Bey eppie district. Were thase blossoms aven, ar are peaich biossoms the only kcind' worth laoking at in Ontario? Wqll, yau and I know differ- ently, arid actueily we are much happier nat ta have had hun- dreds of cars miiling thraugh our beautiful countryside. Beau- ty cannaI be truly appreciated ini the nidst ai a crowd, nai can il be properly appreciatcc from e car. You have ta alighl from the car and wýalk aven the fields,' or down some over- grown road no langer used -by traific. Here are wild apple trees, growing emid poplers and pin cherry,- and strengeiy, their blossoms scem larger and decp- er in colon, the fragrance sharp- br and sweeten than in the cul- tivated orchard yonder. But the cultivated orcherd dliîghts the eyc 100, wîtb acre upan acre fo pink and white blossam. Here anecacn stand and sevor the peculier beauty ai cach. As the Mey wind blows gent- ly and warmly aver the rolling land, the woods, and the raad- side, anc can savon also e mul- titude of fragrances. It is nat a'nly apple biassom that cames down the wind, but Balm of Giiead, pin cherry blossorn, and fragrance from myriad 9ther ilowering wayside tres and sbrubs.

It ls a sad thlng for the city dwellers of course, but thcn' why did they leave the country ini the first place? - As we sit lI aur backyard on Victoria Day, caoking hot dogs over our autdoor fireplace and iooking out over a green ravine wlth towermng wiilows and an orchard beyond, We can't think of onc good reason. Not for us, anyway. PROPOSED VISIT A few wceks ega wc wnate about Phoche Roberts, an Am- enican Quaker who journeyeà thraugb Upper Canada in the 1820's. As we mentioned, il was through Mr. A. David McFaill ai Toronto, president ai the Yark Pioncer and Histarical Society, that we obteîned the copy ai Phoebe's diary. Mn.

Tbcy are very inîcresting exemples ai eanly Canadien art, be relates. Also, the barrel organ ai the 1820's with ils wooden pipes is the earliest pipe organ in Up- per Canada, and may be scen in the Temple museum. The or- gan bas beauliful lones, Mr. McFalls seys. Weli, we ccrtainly lntend tu make Ibat visit this summen, and we will have a great deal More ta tell yau whcn we do.
