the georgetown herald wednesday evening april 9th 194 b the editors corner homecoming week the ontlia news letter has formulated a plan which other newspapers are enthusiastically taking up for bringing tome of the much needed american dollars to canada this summer ft has suggested that orilha hold a gigantic homecoming week to attract former citizens especially those who are now residing in the united states some of orilhas advantages as a visiting spot are outlined proximity to tourist resorts fishing camp borden etc and business and municipal leaders in the town are enthusiastically endorsing the scheme other resort towns such as port elgin have voiced their ap proval of similar plans and no doubt many towns will organize for the purpose of making up some of the business which was lost last year by adverse propaganda in the states whether georgetown has enough former resi dents living in the united states to make such a plan feasible or not is a question which we cannot an wfe do know that we can all help by writing personal letters to friends in the united states whethathev be former georgetowners or not impressing jon them the attractions which canada offers as a vacation land it only costs three cents to write a note to a friend over there and if it can help in persuading him to come to canada this summer it will be three cents well spent what can georgetown offer with the recognized summer resorts vieing with one another for tourist trade we are prompted to ask ourselves just what georgetown has to offer a visitor first of all we could point out the unsurpassed scenery with which this district is gifted the forks of the credit picturesque limehouse with its old lime kilns the milton hills are but a few of our scenic at tractions in addition to this we are within easy driv ing distance of such beauty spots as niagara golf enthusiasts will find the cedar crest course on a par with any club in the country and will get a real kick out of some of the unusual shots with which the course abounds for the fisherman there is an abundance of trout streams in the immediate vicinity where with the proper introductions the nimrod can while away the hours with rod and reel another feature which might impress visitors would be conducted tours through the town s industries the paper mills smith fit stone woollen mills paper making especially is a fascinating process and we are sure that visitors would welcome the opportunity of seeing its manufacture american tourists would no doubt be impressed with a display by the local militia sections of which are drilling every night in the week an hour s drive to toronto means that the t georgetown visitor is within easy access of one of can s ada s most important cities with its parliament build ings museum and art gallery and the great canadian national exhibition in the fall u these are just a few radom observations on topics which a writer might expound upon in letters to american friends horses horses horses hones horses homes crazy over horses horses horses so ran the worts of a popular song a few yeans bade but after our experience last weekend we cant believe that the writer of the lyrics was ever on a horse either that or he was born and brought up in a saddle and never realised the blessings of good old terra anna while visiting in london we were persuaded in a rash moment to go riding perhaps we had been reading too many romantic stories of horses and bounds or perhaps it was just a moment of weakness on our part but a telephone call was made horses reserved and the die was cast like ail oaul horaehack riding is divided into three parts a mounting b staying on c dismounting mounting is a relatively simple process with the aid of an hg groom some helpful comments from nearby spectators and a tremendous burst of energy on the part of this wouldbe rider the perilous ascent was made and we found ourselves ensconced on the back of out mount who was christened queenle after a bit of coaxing from the attendant and some perfectly good horse language from us giddy up hi yo etc queenle consented to stroll leisurely tato the paddock or oorral or whatever they call the circular yard from which one takes off so far this was easy we settled back comfortably in the saddle grasped the reins firmly remembering that one of the first principles in dealing with animals is to show that you are the master the attendant explained that rifling a horse was just like driving a car the reins are the steering wheel you are in the drivers seat and chats all there la to it that ib all there is to it or almost all except that we have new seen a ear yet that refused to go through a gate queenle seemed perfeouy wfidag to move as long as she was moving in the familiar confines of the paddock but a she didnt believe in far fields looking green bray time we approached the gate which led to the wide opentspaces queerde would resolutely torn away and keep going in bar circle after fifteen minutes of cejoung urging threatening and ex postulating we became resigned to the fact that queenle was not flotnff to leave the yard if she had anything to do about it as it is tapcut toargue too ion with a lady we decided that one could ready learn more about riding in the yard anyway one of the tricks in riding is something they cah posting this is one place where honehack riding differs from automobiles it occur when the horse is moving lust a bit faster than a walk and all toot feet are eommg down at different times while the horse is dotag tins it is up to the rider to miss as many of the four bumps as posjite to do this you rise slightly in the stirrups grasp the hone flnnjy between the knees and slide down every fourth btgnp repeating ttw jii hum rata ttiebotsedeclde to waft again very simple when one cete on to it they say 1 after a dehgfatful hour of alternate posting and walking broken queenle rwrenturwl misoonoeption that the time was up e headed for the stables and stood expectantly by the gate to the cttsax of the day dismouoting this tamed out to i atnplest piuote of all and was accomplished almost entirely st eonafcts of loooenmg the footfrom one

mall m5 am the date line now says april and the vacation period la just around the- corner it may seem out of place to mention vacation when there axe so many more serious subjects that we could write about however even in war time soldiers are given leave and if it is correct for soldiers to obtain leave we imagine that it is also very necessary for dvutana to get away from the dally grind for a time each year in fact it is necessary if we are to keep fit for almost any job vaca tions of course vary according tot cir cumstances and it la quite possible to have a very satisfactory vacation right in ones own back yard at home it was our good fortune a few year ago to motor through to the padflo coast on a ten weeks vacation and a few remarks about that tup mayin terest some of our readers our route wa via north bay to sault st mario and then aoroavuppas mgryi ed wisconsin to duluth then on west across minnesota and into north dakota and then we turned north in to mankoha again we turned west across saskatchewan going through such dues as hegina and moose jaw and then on into ajbenta and through medicine bat and northwest to cal gary by the way we saw the bookies before we reached calgary when we were still ninety nxbes from them prom calgary we drove west again to banff where we stayed several days and if any of our readers bap- pen to be worrying about where to go on their honeymoon we would uke to recommend a trip to banff at the moment we are unable to think of a better place for such a trip prom banff we turned south on the winde- mere highway going through to spok ane in washington state again turning west we drove across to seat tle and then turned north to van couver we shipped across to van couver island where we stayed three weeks and then shipped from victoria to seattle on the long trail back home from seattle we headed south on the pacific highway to portland oregon and then turned east up the columbia highway to walla walla and then we turned north to spokane from here we turned east and followed the yel lowstone trail across idaho and mon tana through such cities as butte liv ingstone and blsmark and fargo which are both in north dakota from there we crossed minnesota to duluth and came the rest of the way home much the same way as we went west in all we drove 7875 miles and the car expenses including a couple of new tires amounted to 19750 we could fill this whole column on this 6ui ject but you may take that trip yourself and it would be more inter estlng than reading our account of the trip the highlight of the whole trip was of course the rocky moun tains we had no idea of what they would be like nor can we explain them to you we only hope that you will see them for yourself some day and we are sure you will enjoy a trip out west as much as we did a trip of this kind takes one through four dlf ferent kinds of country first the farm lands of western ontario then the bush lan of muskoka wjh through to algoma and the somewhat similar country in the usa of nor thern mirthigm wisconsin and min nesota then the prairie with its wide open spaces and also with its gumbo and gophers then the foot hills and the rocky mountains with their peaks and valleys and their mountain passes it is easy to un derstand the love that a person would have for the coast after living there a short time with the rrb in sight and on the other hand the ocean we are unable to think of any thing else one would desire even yet we often wonder why we ever came back east again i following our weekly custom of writing a paragraph on one of the ingrediente used in the making of bread we come to the fifth one sugar this week white or granulated is the most economical sugar for the baker to use in breadmaking however brown sugar is often used for the making of brown bread sugar is us ed as a food for the yeast plant to feed on during fermentation and it is also used as a sweetener of the fin ished loaf bread made without su gar looks pale anaemic or perhaps it looks as though it hasn t been pro perly baked you may recall our remarks about the use of malt and we dated that malt was a sugatinrthq- proper form for the yeast to feed on sugar is not and it has to be changed to an invert sugar before the yeast can feed on it this change is brought about by the actions of enzymes dur ing fermentation while a certain amount of sugar in bread isanlmprov- vement in quality yet too large a per centage of sugar makes the finished loaf too sweet bread that le too sweet if very popular when first tasted but af ter a short time its very sweetness becomes nauseating and we soon begin to hope that we may never taste that oversweet bread again this is one reason that in certain countries the bread consumption per capita is be ing reduced from year to year and mall tuopm depot ticket offkw phons sow band fireworks hitler burnt la effigy saturday night in oeoige- scdsnoets newest terbobs aimed at war of total obstruction bow
