Not since 1945' had the CN provided a ski train until the first Sunday in January of this year when accommodation was sold out. The specials will run every Sunday until March 10, with the price including tow charges and transfers between stations and resorts. "Man," said one youth when he came to the Georgian Peaks station for the return journey to Toronto, "this is living, no traffic to buck, no icy roads to tackle and I can sleep all the way home." He did, if the rest of those tired youngsters let him. Some of their early morning exuber- ance w a s noticeably absent, but in a few lusty throats there was still a song and as the skiers dispersed in 'the Toronto station twelve hours from take-off . time there were calls of "see you next week."

Winter resort business is Boom In Sports Berated for their TV legs and below average physical stamina, the youth of Canada has blossomed into a sports conscious, fun seeking clan of ski enthusiasts minus only a yodel when it comes to taking daring slopes, T-bars and chair lifts in their stride. Not since • the immediate post-war years has there been such an upsurge in the partic- ipation of this rugged outdoor challenge to master skills that call for human endurance. Ski trains to winter play- grounds on the northern fringe of Central Ontario w.e r e a popular regular run for the CN when gasoline was rationed and new tires were something one dreamed about owning some time in the distant future. Every weekend these trains were packed with singing, smoking, jostling, fun seekers. Then rationing was lifted, tires were no longer a bootleg item and with a changing transpor- tation pattern, the ski ' train became a memory of post-war conditions. Now we seem to have gone full circle., Just as the old fashioned floorboard gear shift in car models has become one of today's status symbols, the ski train is again popular for weekend pleasure. Young Can- ada clunks into Toronto Union Station early every Sunday morning, the great dome of the edifice echoing to the tread of heavy boots a n d cheerful. Leading authorities on Can- adas food catering industry, as well as restaurant owners and operators from every province, including Mr. and Mrs. M. Schreiber and George Rether, all of Clinton, will participate in discussions at the 19th an- nual convention and exhibition of the Canadian Restaurant Association in Toronto, from March 25 to 28. Billed as Canada's greatest "show window" for the food service industry, the entire pro- gram for this four-clay meet is designed to show delegates ways and means of serving better and tastier food and giv- ing more prompt, efficient and booming, not only in Ontario, the Laurentians, but in Jasper National Park, the foothills of Alberta and on Grouse Mount- ain in Vancouver. New chalets, lifts and tows and winter resort facilities such as curling rinks and toboggan slides are constantly being add- ed tcz accommodate the influx of winter visitors from across the border as well as inter- provincially. Perhaps this exciting revival of enthusiasm in winter sports is just a throwback to our an- cestors. They padded across deep drifts on snowshoes. It hardened their muscles, ex- panded their lungs, strength- ened their hearts and contrib- uted to the production of a vigorous race. Skiing will do all of these things for this and future generations. Only 'more, it is adding substantially to our record increase in tourism statistics. courteous service to the public. A variety of problems per- taining to the industry will be discussed with specialists, ex- perts and authorities taking part. More international in scope than ever before, this year CRA convention will attract delegates from many parts of the world.

Bishop Conducts liensall .Church Confirmations HENSALL At a confirma- tion service held at St. • Paul's Anglican Church Wednesday evening, several candidates were presented for confirmation by the Right Rev. H. F. G. Apple- yard, Bishop of Georgian Bay, They included: Francis George Clark Forrest, Hensall; Thomas Saunders Vickerman, Exeter; Thomas Edward Plumb, Exeter; Allan Thompson, Exet- er; Margaret Marian Roberts, Hens all; Kathleen Anne Hen& erson, Hensall; Marsha Gail Adams, Exeter; Jill Susan Har- ness, Exeter; Theresa Elizabeth Reid and Barbara Elizabeth Reid, Exeter, were received into the full communion of the An- glican 'Church. During the . sermon, Bishop Appleyard pointed out to the candidates that the Lenten sea- son was a fitting time in which to be confirmed, because it was at this time that Christ went into the wilderness to prepare himself for a life of obedience and discipline to God. Just so do those who present themselves for confirmation re- new the vows made at their baptism—they put their lives into the hands of Christ, he said. It is a disciplined life but one which eventually leads to a life of freedom and joy, the Bishop added. The Trivitt Church, Exeter, was in charge of the music under the direction of organist, Robert Cameron. Following the service a re- ception was held in the Sunday school rooms, Station Clinton, was 'fined $10 and costs or five days in jail on a charge of driving with an expired 1962 operator's licence.
