In the coming summer we may expect hundreds of visitors from the States. For many of them a good time means lots of leisure for hikes—visits to historic sites, scenic beauty spots. Let’s give them a really friendly welcome and help to make their stay as memorable as it can be! WHAT CAN I DO? The answer is plenty! Here are some of the things anyone can do. The suggestions come from a well-known Ontario hotelman: 1. Know the places of interest and beauty spots in your district and tell people about them. 2. When you write your friends in the States tell them about the places they would enjoy visiting. 3. Try to make any visitor glad he came to Canada. 4. Take time to give requested infor­ mation fully and graciously. 5. In business dealings, remember our reputation for courtesy and fairness depends on you. 6.

Stand the entire loaf ofi silced bread on end, 'Spread filling on top buttered slice and set it to the siue of the loaf. When the second slice has been spread se't it and the slice under it on top of the loaf, then set two slices on the “filled” pile. Yqu will only butter the oxle side of the slice upon which the filling is spread, but if filling is moist they will be tasty.
