Bell Canada You don't have to go to Expo to write a column about it. I could write a book. The country is full of Expo ex- perts who are only too ready to fill you in on everything about it, after spending two bewildered days there. We've been hearing about Expo from friends, relatives, neigh- bours, and casual acquaint-. ances until we have Czech blown glass coming out our ears. 8 It's rather amusing to have people who have never seen anything bigger than the county fair dismissing the Russion pavilion as "brittle" or "ponderous," or praising the British pavilion as "sul tle" or "wonderfully under stated."

Everything we've "heard about it has been contradic-. tory, from the availability of lavatories to the price of meals; However, that's life,' that's people and that's pro- bably Expo. Today we leave. We're &ll set. My wife hasn't slept for two nights and has a blister on her heel. Kim has a fall- en arch. I have a vicious corn on the ball of my foot. But never mind that.
