Nevffonad, land on, a student exchange pre- gram sponsored by the Centene nial Commission set up by the goverpment. The purpose Pf this trip is to acquaint a student with a pro., yince other than hie own. In my estimation this pure pose was admirably fulfilled as I look on NeWfeundland with opened eyes and regard it as a second horne. Our party consisted of 24 students and two adult chaper- ons, Mr. and Mrs, purecher of Windsor. We left Ontario July 15 and were joined in Montreal by Gordon Robertson, appointed by the Centennial Commission to travel with us to observe and help us, Mr. Robertsop works with public Relations for the Federal Government. We arrived in North Sydney on Friday morning at 4:45 and changed to the ferry, William Carson. For many of the sto, dents this was their first ferry crossing and many were sea- sick. I enjoyed it though. We arrived inPort-aux,Bas- ques, Newfoundland at 4:00. They cll say les delicious:I" Try some .today for Gander by bus. From the Gander High School we were taken to our billets' homes, That evening again we attended a. dance hOsteea in Gander was Carole Jenkins and her family, I had a very enjoyable time there. g I PeNeWfoundland pevelop- merit company's Woods where we saw the lumberman cut down the trees and tractors heel the logs away. After this tour we ate at the dining hall of the lumbermen where we were treated to a hen but delicious meal. After dinner we went across Red Indian Lake, There we all got some driftwood which Mr. and MrS.Noseworthy Were kind enough to mail home to me. Tuesday evening we were treated to a dance by the Chamb- er of. Commerce of which Mr. Neeeworthy is President, We had Wednesday morning free and then we had luncheon at the Canadian Legion Hall.

At the banquet I was at the head table seated between, the Acting 'Premier and the Minis- ter of Public Works, Premier Smallwood was in Prince Ed- ward Island. We were preeented with souvenir booklete here. We were then taken on a tour of the surrounding country.

Baskets of white and yellow glads and brass candelabra de- corated the church for the oc- casion. The wedding music was supplied by Albert Dunn, RR 1 Deniield, who also accompanied the Misses Mary, Judy and Pat Kennedy of Ilderton who sang The Wedding Prayer and 0 Perfect Love.

Prior of Portage la Prairie, Man., marked their golden wedding anniversary with an open house for friends and relatives. The groom of fifty years, Herman G. Prior, is a native of Exeter and is well known here as he frequently visits in the community. Mrs. Prior is a native of Forest. Mr. Prior was engaged in the mercantile business with his brother, the late N. J. Prior for 48 years retiring in 1956. They have two sons and one daughter: Murray of Winnipeg, Mrs. Brian (Jean) Best of Win- nipeg and Douglas of Vancouver B.C. There are four grand- children. Mr. and Mrs. Prior enjoy good health and have always been active in church and com- munity service. Every 2 Qt's purchased, a free balloon will be given EAT LOBSTER Thursday we journeyed to Eastport where we got live lobster and boiled them on the beach. It was too cold to eat them there, so we went to a building. I'M sad to say I didn't enjoy the lobster but many of our group did, While returning home we at last saw what I expected to see, some small villages. The only word to describe them is quaint. The scenery is beautiful and I noticed that with every com- munity of over five houses, there was at least one church, Thursday evening we ate at the Gander Terminal, shopped for souvenirs and left for St. John's by plane at the beauti- ful Gander Terminal. Since it was my first time flying I was really excited but I was amazed how little there was to it. It seemed no time until we were in St. John's Airport and meet- ing our new hostesses. I stayed with Norma Tubman and her family in St. John's. As an example of Newfoundland hospitality, the Tubman's told me that if I saw anything in their home that I liked, I was welcome to it. I was treated and felt just like a member of their family. On Friday morning we toured St. John's. We saw the dry docks and I was amazed to learn that it is mostly Portuguese ships that dock in St. John's Harbour. Also we visited the War Me- morial and Signal Hill, From Signal Hill you can get a spectacular view of the city of St. John's, the narrows of St. John's and the Atlantic Ocean on the other side. Signal Hill has seen many battles between the French and British and also it was from here that Marconi made his first wireless broadcast across the Atlantic. We ran behind schedule and had to skip some of our tour but we were able to go to city hall and meet Mayor Mews and then on to the Confederation Buildings. At the Confederation Build- ings we met the Acting Premier Mr. Curtis, and the Minister FIRST VIEW IMPRESSIVE Our first sight of Newfound- land was rock rising from the water and we all wo ndered where the beach where we were to have our lobster bake was. From the boat we could see snow-capped mountains and I only wish that sight could al- ways stay in my mind. We left port-aux-Basques at 5:00 and arrived in Corner Brook at 11:00. Might I add here that the meals on the train were just delicious. On the way to Corner Brook we tried to invent a cheer and when I said I was a cheer- leader I was appointed just that. We used a South Huron cheer changed around a little. We were supposed to arrive in Corner Brook at 8:00 and a dance had been planned but due to a little accident of a car of the train unhitching on the main- land during the night, we were delayed. The dance was cancelled and we went to our billets' homes. I stayed with Donna Sheppard and her family. They had a lovely home and really made me feel welcome.

Come on in out of the heat To reside in Seaforth TOUR PULP PLANT Saturday morning we visited Bowater's Pulp and Paper Mill, the largest mill of its kind in the industry. The raw lumber comes in and goes through all the processes in the one mill and comes out the finished pro- duct. Then it is shipped all over the world. Needless to say this is the largest industry of Cor- ner Brook and I would say of Newfoundland. In the afternoon we were taken cod jigging in Bowaters' boats. We were taken to the Outer Bay of Islands and we fished all afternoon. Only one of us, Bob Cooper from Kippen, caught a fish but we all had fun trying. After supper at our billets, we went to a dance at one of the high schools. After the dance the Ontario students entertained with a hootenanny. On Sunday morning my billet and I went to church with Mr. Max Sirrims. Mr. Simms was citizen of the year and district governor twice of International Lions Club which includes the Maritimes, Maine and the Is- lands of St. Pierre and Miche- lon. He won the supreme achievement for starting ten clubs. Of these there are less than 40 in the world. Sunday afternoon we visited Deer Lake at which is situated the power plant which supplies Bowaters' Mill. Water comes from Grand Lake via a canal nine miles long. Corner Brook is only on 50 cycle although the rest of Newfoundland is on 60 cycle but it would be too ex- pensive for the mill to change over. After visiting the Bowater Power plant we went to Bowater Park to have lunch and then went home. Although it was supposed to be a free evening the Corner Brook students challenged the Ontario students to a five-pin bowling match. We had fun but there are mixed opinions as to who won. VISIT CITY HALL Monday morning we went to the oily hall where we signed the guest book and listened lb a good-,bye speech.
