OUR hostess has kept us on

WE have been receiving south-
ern hospitality at its best . . We
have had, three engagements to-
day (May 2) and still have a din-
ner party to attend tonight „
Columbus is full of retired army
people, and they all carry on in
a style "similar to their army
days, although not quite so elab-
orate and, of course, they
can't get the help they used to
have before the wg , How-
ever, they are all very interest-
ing and all have travelled every • -
where you can think of . .
* *
WE drove through the military
reserve (Fort Henning, Ga.) on
the way in, and you never would
know the place , . . miles and
Miles of barracks and other build-
ings erected during the war . . .
Fort Henning comes right to the
outskirts of Columbus now; both
have grown out to meet each
other . . There used to be
about 12 miles of open country
between them When we were
here before (April 1938) . . .

MY diet has "gone with the
wind" . . I'm so full of south-
ern fried chicken, rice, strawberry
shortcake with whipped cream,
etc., that I'm frightened to get
on the bathroom scales . .

IF I thought it was cool in
Florida, it sure is making up for
it here . . The temperature
rises to about 86 every day, al-
though the evenings are cool,
which is a saving grace'" . . . The
flowers here are at their very
best—roses, gladioli, sweet peas
and asters . . We see them
everywhere we go . . . * *
HAVE been playing a card
game called "samba" . . . It is
like canasta and seems popular
around here . . Don't mind it
occasionally but wouldn't like it
for a steady diet , „
*
SATURDAY evening, we were
out for a dessert bridge at a re-
tired army officer's home . . .
We had first part of dinner at
home, and went for dessert and
coffee and a good game of bridge,
and both Mrs. H. and I received
pretty camellias as guest-of-
honour prizes . . . These retired
officers 'live in fine homes . .
Most of them had Philippine ser-
vice, so have gorgeous Chinese
rugs and furniture . . .
* *
SUNDAY morning, we attended
church . . . Then we went out
to the Officers' Club (at Fort
Henning) for dinner . . It
looked just about the same as I
remember it, except that it has
three swimming pools out back
instead of one — one for small
children, another for young peo-
ple, and a huge one for officers
and wives . . There are a lot
of gay umbrellas and chairs dot-
ted around the edges of the pool,
with tables at one end . .
• *
WE had a grand dinner—jel-
lied tomato bouillon, tossed sal-
ad, half a southern fried chick-
en, french-fried potatoes, and
squash and onions . .. The squash
are different from ours — very
small and are cooked with their
skins on which you eat . . . Hot
rolls, lime sherbet and coffee ..
*
TODAY is as hot as hades . . .
After driving around the Post
(Fort Kenning) and resting at
the golf club, we came home
and were absolutely soaked .
* *
EXCEPT for the old section of
stucco_houses, it's hard to recog-
nize the place (Fort Henning)
There are miles and miles of new
buildings and residences .
They train paratroopers, so now
have a large air station with a
great many Air Force personnel
. . . However, the Air Force has
its own section—like Camp Bor-
den--with its own club and resi-
dences—all temporary buildings ,

OFFER OLD SCHOOL
GODERICH—At a meeting of
Goderich District Collegiate In-
stitute Board, • it was reported
that the new building has pro-
gressed to the point where its
completion is assured well in
advance- of the opening of school
in September. As a result, the
present building is being •offered
for sale by tender with possible
possession on July 15.
THE VOICE OF
TEMPERANCE
So the brewer's money has won
again. This time it is the Canad-
ian dratha league. It had no
money. It wanted to make ex-
travagant awards. The brewer
has lots of money. He would
underwrite the financial needs of
the drama league. The price he
asked was that the trophy should
hear his name. The drama lea-
gue succumbed to the brewer's
temptation. So now it will not be
the Governor General's trophy
but the brewer's trophy that will
be the award offered to the win-
ning dramatic society. It is high
class publicity for the brewer.
For the drama league it is an
association • that it cannot afford
to make if it wants to be free
anca independent and if it wants
to hold the respAt and good will
of the Canadian public. It is not
to be tolerated that our institu-
tions 'of learning and culture
should accept the patronage of
the brewer.
