Alf Smith flew to Brussels, Belgium, July 5 to visit Col, and Mrs. George Galley whom they knew when Col. Galley was at the Centralia air base, Before returning home July 27 they toured six countries in a most delightful holiday. As they left Detroit by night they spotted Tiger Stadium below.

They toured the harbour. visited the house where Reubens lived for 40 years and viewed his paintings. At Ronquieres canal barges were lifted on a ramp to a lock 200 feet above. They saw the site of the Battle of Waterloo and viewed the mound of earth that marks the place of Napoleon's defeat. Dinner in a house built in 1627 and awkwardness." This is one of the observations of Richard Robinson, 94, who has been a Huron County farmer for many years. Mr. Robinson, RR 1, Zurich, is one of a number of Huron County residents who are being in- terviewed by the six students working on the historical file for the county. The interviews are to help students to understand what life was like in the early 1900's. Besides interviews, the team members are busy taking slides for sequences also to be available to students throughout the county. Houses from pioneer days to the present, fire-fighting equipment old and new, and the development of schools throughout the years are just three of the topics covered by slides along with voiced-over narration also prepared by the students. A walking tour of Goderich to be available in booklet form is also underway. The main work is the historical file located in the county offices, Goderich. Progress is rapidly being made on its contents. Working in three teams of two members each, the students have collected a wealth of information was an interesting experience as they watched their steaks being prepared over an open hearth. Never in any restaurant were they served a glass of water with their meals. Holland was the land of flowers. There were planter boxes even on the roofs of buildings. They took a boat tour of the canals and harbour at Amsterdam, visited the home of Anne Frank, the cheese mart at Altmar, the windmills grinding mustard at Zen Damm, took the train to Arnhem, the site of a battle during World War II, and a boat tour on the Rhine. Generally, language was no problem. "If you need direction," the Galleys had said, "ask a younger person. He is more likely on Huron County from 1900 to 1914, They are now working on the years 1915 to 1929, , Sources for the information going into the file include newspapers, Tweedsmuir histories, P,U.C. records, municipal records, telephone system records, district• in- surance company offices, local histories, and especially people, The project is sponsored by the Experience '73, P.E.O,P.L.E, program of the Provincial Ministry of Education. The Huron County Council is meeting additional expenses. Ther students, all residents of Huron, are learning a great deal about their County through all phases of their work, but par- ticularly through the interviews, Being a student now sounds a lot easier than being one in 1905. As Mr. Robinson put it, "That was when we really went to school and the teacher had a big stick or something . . , it was :come or I'll fetch you." to know English". Later, accompanied by the Galleys, they drove through the Ardennes and Luxembourg into Germany, through the Kaisen- slauter area where steel mills stretch for miles, on to Baden in the Black Forest region, Baden, the site of hot springs and a Roman bath, is the home of Cyril Ralph friend of the Galleys. He took them into the hills where grapes are grown and interesting castles stand. Baden has a Canadian air base. The Americans have bases and military equipment in the area also, The next day they crossed at Basle into Switzerland, stayed overnight in Geneva, then proceeded into France. As they drove through the Alps they were reminded of the warning given by the Swiss general when Hitler demanded passage through the land, "You may come through but it will cost you a million casualties". Gun emplacements are concealed in the slopes overlooking the roads. Camping sites for the car and trailer in France were most attractive. Mr. Smith remarked about the fine herds of Ayrshires in the country; in Holland the cattle were Holsteins. In Paris they camped alongside the Seine. The buildings of the core area gleam, having been cleaned of grime by order of de Gaulle. "I never saw so many wrought iron railings in my life," said Alf, "the designs on them were beautiful." The Smiths went to the top of the Eiffel Tower, 1200 feet, had a boat ride on the Seine, visited By MRS.

Proceeding north they saw Compiegne and the railway car where surrender terms were signed following the wars, the Canadian war memorial at Vimy Ridge and the cemeteries, beautifully maintained. Some trenches of World War I remain undisturbed. Belgium with an average population of 700 per square mile seemed crowded as compared with Canada. Some adjustment was needed to the five hours 'difference in time and to the fact that it was broad daylight at 4.30 in the morning. The weather was pleasant, generally cool, making the vacation a memorable one for Mr. & Mrs. Smith. Personals Mr. & Mrs. C. Vande Ven, Holland, are visiting at the home of Mr. & Mrs. Tony Martens.
