In those days the Toronto ?Olio Library allowed six books to be borrowed for a month at a time--the only stipulation was that two of them had to be non-fiction, My eix books never lasted anything like a month; and my poor father was delegated upon his return. to the city to choose six new books and bring them back the following week-end, This process was re- peated several times during the summer and to tell the truth his choice of reading matter was often infinitely better than my original selection. Once he brought me ;'Lust for Life" by Irving Stone (and that's well worth reading). It is the biography of Vincent Van Gogh and I think the screaming reds and yellows of his paintings were indelibly impressed upon 'my mind because the book was read basking in the golden sunlight of an exec'ediagly hot August. But enough: of me. In our library is a collection of books for young people under the general title of "Great Stories of Canada". They have been written over a period of years, by a variety of people; some are still in preparation. There may be a few we still do not have but I am sure that, if requested, they could be obtained. The titles are listed, on the frontispiece of each book. The twentieth book in this 'series is of peculiar interest to us because it is' written by Robert D, Ferguson, who taught in Wingham District High School for eight years. His book is called MAN FROM ST. MALO It is, of course, the story of Jacques Cartier, It recounts all' three expeditions. to New France, Ina deals in greatest detail with the second in 1535-36. Cartier emerges as a real person, begin- ning with his life at the age of fifteen haunting the harbour as the fishing boats returned. He also had actually sailed at, that time "In European waters as cabin-boy and deck-hand. "French 'and Spanish political rivalry is dealt in some 'detail. The wars between Charles V of Spain and Stanley Wheeler, of Brussels, were visitors with Mr. and Mrs. N. T. McLaughlin on Sunday. --Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Ard spent the week-end in Welland. Mrs. Jean Davis returned home with them after visiting for the past two weeks with• rian daughter, Donna. Francis I of France are recounted with brief clarity, and mention is made of the other early explorers to North and South America, The desire for wealth and -possessions indeed dominated' the courts and kings of the .sixteenth century. This book will appeal to readers. of many types. I Ictiow one twelve-' yeareold, who prefers biographies --that is exactly what the "Man from St. Maio" is. It Is also hle- tOrY, adventure and a, rousing good story to boot, The writing is smooth and vivid. The. account of the men's suffering from scurvy you will not easily forget and the cruelty of a Canadian winter is here: "Storms that were born on the barren shores of the Arctic curiae Sweeping across the tundra and through the woodlands to hurl themselves furiously against the French encampment, Then the place became a chaos of howling winds and swirling snows. It was as if the devil's that were said to inhabit the New World had come screaming together in -one insane attempt to destroy this little camp that had dared to raise itself in their midst. At the gates of the fort the shivering sentries bent like old men against the blizzards. Their cheeks were touched with white patches of frost-bite, and their hands, stiff with bitter cold, could hardly grip their mus- kets. a, ." -A ten-year-old child could read this story With understanding and enjoyment.

I recommend it highly, Two Fatalities In District 6 Statistics for 'the 'month of April covering traffic accidents in Dis- trict No. 6, of which the Wingham area is a part, show that there was o4ly one fatal accident in the month, but it took the lives of two persons, All told there were 115 accidents, which caused injury to 38 people The police checked 5,243 vehicles, issued 2,433 warnings and laid 1,026 charges..
