Bartlett's drawings in "Canadian Scenery Illustrated" of 1841 is described by the author as having more interesting features than Niagara or Montmorency. The Chaudiere River descend- ed not in a continuous sheet, but broken by projecting rocks into three channels which again united before reaching the basin below. The overhanging forests of dark foliage varied and contrasted with the white foam of the cataracts, producing striking effects. These were heightened by the deep and hollow sounds of the waters and clouds of spray, which when illuminated by the sun exhibited a brilliant variety of prismatic colours. Widow, Three Children Are Homeless after Fire A Turnberry Township widow, Mrs. Clarence Howe, and her three young sons were left home- less as the result of a fire late Saturday afternoon, which com- pletely destroyed their farm home on the 12th concession of that municipality. Mrs. Howe blamed the fire on faulty wiring in the second storey of the home. She was first alerted when she heard a crackling noise and found par- titions ablaze. She escaped with her sons, George, 11, Don- ald 7 and David 4, then return- ed to the house to call the Wingham rural fire brigade. Vons Make $500 Payment to Board A meeting of the Wingham Lions Club was held in the Queens Hotel on Tuesday even- ing. A payment of $500.00 was made to the Riverside Parks Board. This is a further pay- ment towards the club's com- mitment to provide permanent washroom facilities at the River- side Park camping area. Lion Pat Brenzil reported the Lions Midget hockey team is current- ly in the playoffs. Arrangements have been made to hold a public speaking contest in Wingham on Tuesday evening, February 23. The club also approved holding the region contest, which includes clubs from Owen Sound in the north to Stratford in the south, in Wingham on Friday evening, March 19. The guest speaker was Jack Wooding, representative of a pharmaceutical firm, who spoke on the "Low Cost of Living" . He outlined the tremendous amount of research and development necessary to provide more effec- tive drugs at the lowest possible cost to the consumer. District Deputy Governor Wray Cooper was a guest of the club on the occasion of his of- ficial visit. Lion Wray gave a very inspiring address on Lion - ism and stressed the fundamen- tals necessary for a successful club. The campaign for funds for the Canadian National Institute for the Blind will be closed shortly. The club asks those who have overlooked making a con- tribution, to do so immediately. A group of young men who were passing noticed her plight and removed most of the furni- ture from the storey and a half insul-brick frame home. As a result most of their personal belongings were saved. Firemen had a major prob- lem on their hands as the lane to the home was blocked with deep snow. They laid over800 feet of hose from a creek but were unable to save the struc- ture. The brigade was called again about 1:00 a.m. Sunday when the remains of the build- ing flared up. They were on the job for another hour and a half. Mrs. Howe and her three sons stayed in a Wingham ho- tel after the fire, under the care of the Salvation Army. Accommodation for the fam- ily has since been found in an apartment over McKibbons Drug Store, Wingham Youths Address Group WHITECHURCH- The Y. P.
