A native of Bayfield, and a vet-

Edwin P. Gower, passed away on
Monday, February 24, in his 95th
year. Service was held in Toronto,
Mr. Gower was the last of the
early pioneers of Hayfield, and

While still quite young. The Gower
family was quite active in the
work of Trinity Anglican Church,

call the Old Gower, orchard, at the
sistith west corner of Bayfield. The
orchard has since been destroyed
by the inroads of the lake, and no
longer exists. The property was
once owned by Thomas H. Elliott.

before emigrating to Canada, also
entered the bank, and served with
the Canadian Bank of Commerce
,in New York, Guelph, Hamilton,
London., and also at Kitchener and
Windsor, where he was manager.
In 191.1 he was appointed assist-
ant manager at the main Toronto

While at London, he joined the

the Riel Rebellion.

Thieires Break Into
New Public School
The new $120,000 Public School,
which was officially opened last
fall, was broken into during
Thursday morning, February 27.
Thieves gained entrance by break-
ing the glass in the west door
and reaching in to push the bar
down.
All six classrooms are locked
every night, and the thieves tried
to pry doors open with a screw
driver. The only room entered
was the Kindergarten room and
cash stolen from the deck of the
teacher, !Mrs. Howard Scones.
Roy Consitt, manager of school,
discovered the break-in when he
went to the school at 8 p.m. and
phoned the principal Robert Rea-

in Switkerland, Mrs, Path and
tourist were taken by a chairlift
up Mount Pilatua to a lovely hotel
and there she met relatives of a
well known Varna family who
spent many a summer season in
Hayfield.
The trip to °A.ustria across the
Principality of Lichtenstein was a
great contrast to the unmarred.
beauty of Switzerland. Austria
was an occupied.country , during
and after the war and shows many
signs of poverty. The very old and
the very young alike were seen
laboring by hand in the field. The
roads from Innsbruck through the
Brenner Pass was a narrow ledge
on the mountain and the skill of
their driver was appreciated by
the group. Due to a landslide, they
were forced to stay in a very
small Italian town overnight arid
saw the real rural living of these
people, Venice was described as a
city which must be seen to be
believed. Its beauty would be
more easily shown by the pictures
she took there, The stay in Venice
was for two days. She wished it
had been for two' weeks:
From Florence, the art centre
of the world, 'they continued to
Rome where the perfect preserva-
tion of the City Wall and the
Pantheon impressed everyone. A
trip to the coliseum was not in-
cluded on the itinerary but Mrs.
Path and her cousin spent the
very early hours of their,last day
in Rome visiting this historic am-
phitheatre alone. The dens where
the lions were kept which killed
so many Christians• thrown into
the arena, are still intact.
From Rome the tour went
through the Italian Riviera dist-
rict which vies with. the French
Riviera for tourist trade. At Genoa
they visited Columbus' birthplace
and at Milan the great cathedral
and opera house. The tour con-
tinued through Simplon Pass to
West Switzerland on a.- narrow
er had to back up sometimes twice
tains with turns so sharp the driv-
ledge road through great moun-
to get around. They stayed in
Montreaux and visited Geneva at
the opposite end of Lake Geneva.,
Here the impressive League of
Nations building overlooks the
beautiful lake. The party continu-
ed from here through Troy. The•
district around Troy is famous for
its delectable snails greatly enjoy-
ed by two gourmets but not ap-
preciated by Mrs. Path and her
cousin. The next stop was charm-
ing Paris. From Paris they travel-
led by train to Calais. Through
this part of France the great de-
struction of World War II was
still aparent especially at Calais
where Mrs. Poth embarked for
England and the tour of the Brit-
ish Isles commenced.
The president, Mrs. Leroy P6th,
chaired the meeting., Mrs. Roma
Middle-teal was to .charge of the,
devotional period, the theme of which was fellowship, After the
Pledge she read,4 Peeria. Mrs. Fitzsimons offered prayer, St-

make this hazardous trip.
The ship• docked in Liverpool
and. from there they went by train
to London, In London the first
shopping of the trip was undertak-
en, and the trouble of handling
different currency began. The
pictures Mrs. Poth took from the
tower at Windsor Castle were. ob-
tained' by accident when she be-
oame separated from the party
through her interest 'in the dining-
room of the castle, The table
there seats 52 pepple without 'be-
ing extended, All through her trip
the speaker says, "She became the
tail on the dog", as she took her
coloured slides which so many
have already enjoyed since her re-
turn.
From Dover the party crossed
by ferry to Ostend, Belgium and
met their guide who accompanied
they all through the European
trip. He was "Short" by name
and disposition' but, as the tour
proceeded Mrs. Poth said she could
understand more readily how this
disposition had became short, with
22 persons from different count-
ries to try to please and keep on
schedule.
. They travelled in a 40-foot
Modem coach to Brussels and
Bonn, In the hotels there they
found feather ticks oved and un-
der them: Not uncomfortable but
not long enough for complete cov-
erage. These ticks were very
beautifully covered with damask--
lovely enough to be table linen.
Coblence was next on the itinerary
and a tour of the huge Deinhard
wine cellars. These are all under-
o ground and served to shelter all
the residents of the city during
the war, when it was badly bomb-
ed.
The road followed right beside
the Rhine River through very
beautiful countryside and 'through
Weisbaden. The Rhine flows be-
tween high hllls on which are old
castles and forts etched against
the sky. At Heidelberg on the
Neckar River, they visited the old
university with its famous prison,
where misbehaviour was followed
by imprisonment, and on the walls
of the prison can be seen the name
of several famous men who served
their terms there in the years
gone by.
From Germany the party cros-
sed the Gerinan-Swiss frontier in-
to picturesque Switzerland. The
true old world beauty and charm
was so apparent in Switzerland
with its bright green grass on the
mountains. Here the cattle arc
pastured on the slope and each
herd is distinguished by/bells of
different pitch. The Swiss accom-
modation was apparently built
within the last 25 years and were
most comfortable, on an island in
Lake Lucerne, The group enjoyed
a folk concert complete with na-
tional costume, yodelling and mu-
sic of the Swiss horn, This instru-
ment is approximately twice the
length of the musician playing it.
Flag waving was another part of
the program and the performer
seen there is the same artist ap-
pearing in Cinerama Holiday, a
film which has recently been re-
leased in Canada. During the stay
