Mr, Walker says that it was rather chilly weather in Mori-, da in the early winter months. i There has been considerable activity on their ski-ing grounds five miles south of the Bend, but the big handicap is lack of snow, which is very scarce at present, Owing to the lack of snow this 1 winter and the danger it in- volves, there is no toboganning l this year, as people do not use enough precaution to ensure safety, to all. I Mr. Walker may consider the opening of a trailer camp for the summer 'months, as the Bend is very much crowded,, as well as 1pperwash Park, and he would' have an ideal spot for •such ac- comodation at very little cost, the district purebase the tract a, land available on the lake front- age in flay 'Township, for a play ground in the summer months. 1 This could be put on a Paying basis they thought. 1 They felt Zurich should have more industries to keep its' young people occupied and keep thein at home.
