When we told the driver our destination, he snapped, "You don't want to go that way!" Then he rattled off different directions which thoroughly confused us. We transferred from one bus to another, ,We rode the subway for a few miles and finally entered the grounds on a street car. The crowd buffeted us past the double ferris wheel, the roller coaster and' other rides that I can't name. We heard .the laughter and screams of the passengers. Our Venturesome minds wanted to join them, but our stomachs rebelled. Barkers challenged us to play their games,but we ignored most of them and saved our money. However, we were tempted to let someone try to guess our age, because most poeple think we're younger than we are. We hated to admit our years, though: too many people stood around. In the Coliseum, we saw the food, agriculture and science exhibits. We hurried past the livestock stalls. Being farm 'girls, we thought we had spent enough time in the barn. In the Horse Palaces we waited a half-hour to see a draft horse show. Later we learned the competition was held in another ring. Our feet appreciated the rest, anyway. As we wandered through the Hockey Hall of Fame and the Sports Hall of Fame, we admired the achievements of by Elaine Townshend Canadian athletes. The international building provided samples of the life styles in other countries. We were fascinated by the Russian china, the Philippine furnishings, the Tahitian clothing and the French jewelry. A Virginian lady handed us colourful pamphlets and invited us to "Come on down." Outside, each country sponsored a cafe. When we stopped for dinner, we encountered three problems! translating the menus, deciding what to order and finding a seat. We finally settled in the Bavarian Tavern. Which exotic dish did we order? Chicken on 'a roll. We like to know what we're eating. In mid-afternoon, a rain, shower chased most people' inside.We shared a table under a canopy with a couple from Australia, who entertained us with tales of their country. Instead of spoiling our day, the rain. gave us a chance to meet people. In the evening, we heard Olivia Newton-John performing at the grandstand. We learned one thing: girls aren't the only ones who swoon over movie stars and well-known personalities. A fellow risked life and limb to bolt over 'several rows of chairs and place a rose at Olivia's feet. Meanwhile, a chorus of male voices serenaded her with "We love you, Olivia". They were well-rehearsed and hit only a couple of sour notes. In front of us, a boy about eighteen- years-old Moaned with delight as she sang his favourite songs.When she announced her final number, he pleaded, "Oh, no! Pleases don't go." While the fireworks closed another day at the CNE, my friend and I followed the crowd through the gates. in spite of the rain, our sore feet and the prospect of a long ride home, everyone seemed happy. It's part of the magic that draws thousands of visitors to the Ex each year. 4 Odds n' Ends THE CNE BALL-MACAULAY Care BUILDING CENTRE Check These Down To Earth Prices !
