Having lived by means of this type of gear in Canada's North, I couldn't help but be excited by the equipment which for a few years was the means of not only staying alive, but comfortably so. Perhaps the most impressive single feature of this great dis- play was the custom built rifles in which Epps is a specialist, and for which he is known to the master gunmakers all over Canada and United States. Lovely, Lovely: If you are one who stares starry-eyed at Pete Kuhlhoff's illustrated gun articles in Ar- gosy magazine, you'll go into orbit on a tour-hourf browse around the fine weapons slung there for inspection. Those of us whose exper- ience doesn't go much farther BOYFIELD BRIEFS Mr. Monty Poulter, Ottawa, and Miss Susan Keutsch, Strat- ford, were house guests of Mr. and Mrs. G. N. Rivers, last week. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Dillon and children, New York, were recent guests of Mrs. Bauer at her home on Lakeshore Rd. than the old Ross, Royal Lee Enfield and Short Lee Enfield and jungle carbine (and maybe a Cooey Ace) may not fully appreciate the finer points of custom built sporting rifles. but to a real gun buff, this is the place to go on those afternoons when the Old Man is pacing the floor 'and cursing the rain. It's not raining at Epps' Emporium and there's choice pacing for the gun lover. The chosen few are permit- ted to see the private collec- tion of more than 300 rare weapons, ranging from antique and modern hand guns to the odd and unique in rifles. This is a big4ime operation and no- thing but the very finest is tol- erated. See for yourself. Meanwhile, your reporter feels the urge to hustle home and rub a little three-in-one into his old Lee Enfield cut down job. and pray for a chance to hit the moose trails in the not too distant future. Pioneer Park Aims and Objects (Continued from Page One) sale and the Thursday night movies. The profits from the rummage sale go largely to pay the expenses of maintenance: the cost of having the grass cut and The garbage collected, and of providing a comprehen- sive public liability insurance policy. The movies, shown on Thursday nights during the summer months, do not net the Pioneer Park Association any real profit. In some years they have made a profit, but in others the films have run at a loss, and thus over the number of years the movies have done no more than carry themselves. Although the asseeiation has made improvements to the park —nine solid benches with con- crete bases have been provid- ed, and numerous trees plant- ed— the association is in some- what 'of a quandry as to what further improvements to make. In fact there is a feeling among the membership that perhaps it would be best to leave the park as it is now. They do not wish to attract huge, rowdy crowds. but rather to provide a quiet. tidy stretch of land offering an unobstructed view of the lake. The park was originally cal- led "Signal Point" because in bad weather storm signals were hung from a wooden cross-arm on the edge of the cliff. For a long time however, it has been known as "Sunset Point" because of the open view it af- fords of the Lake Huron sun- sets. It was with a commend- able spirit of public service that the charter members of the Pioneer Park Association pool- ed their resources and saved this land. The Thursday night movies they provide have be- come a summer tradition, and every clear night the beautiful sunsets that can be seen from the park testify to their fore- sight.
