Most of the towers are sfeel and most of them function unseen by aver- age woods travellers. An exception is the fire tower at Parry Sound. Its lookout actually is more than 170 feet above the waters of Georgian Bay and the tower surrounding grounds are visited by thou- sands of tourists every year. To make the tower safer for visitors, its stairway is being closed in with interlocking wire mesh, This precaution has been thought especially impor- tant because of the number of children who vist "Tower Hill" and, with adults, admire and photograph the flower gardens and reforested areas which have earned high praise for the De- partment of Lands and Forests there, H. W. Hummel, assistant District Forester at Parry Sound says: "Since June, 1927. the sur- rounding country has been sur- veyed from Tower Hill. From the lookout cabin, 171 feet above Georgian Bay, one can see the smoke of Copper Cliff smelter on a clear day or the flicker of the lighthouse on Western Is- land--25 miles as the crow flies, "Tower Hill, before erection of the tower, was barren of ites, Reforestation cured this today a fine young stand of pine gives cover to birds, shade to travellers and is an asset to the town. During a bad spring storm, hundreds of birds of many species may be foundin the plan- tation waiting for good weather # to proceed to their nesting places "The odd-shaped stones bor- dering the walks and flower beds were picked up on Georgian Bay and add much to the place's scenic beauty. "The sun-dial, with its inscrib- ed motto 'It's Later Than You Think' was carved by Peter Mc- Ewen, former district. forester at Parry Sound, who also engin- eered the whole tower project. People checking watches with the sun dial are apt to forget that sun time actually is about 20 minutes later than Standard Time, | Coming Events | Thurs., June 2nd--Recital by pupils of Miss Edna Maher, A.T.
