Yet, we were amazed, on our recent trip, at the variety of scenery ... from and very elite, but what we enjoyed • most, during our short stay, was a walking tour through the old part of the city with its fascinating narrow, up-and-down streets, its ancient chur- It Seems to me... rocky spurs and frozen spires, with huge glaciers, crevises and crags, to the gentle valleys where soft green meadows carpet the slopes, and win- ding streams sparkle between flower - strewn banks. Then, there are the sub -tropical towns, growing among vineyards, aloiig Lac Leman that re- mind you very much bf the Mediterranean. And all this is contained in an area not much larger than south-western Ontario. The Swiss we spoke to were incredulous that we live in a country so large that we must pass through four time zones to cover its breadth. Our first stop was Zurich and, of course, since we now live in the Zurich, Ontario area, we were anx- ious to see its namesake. It's Switzerland's largest city and finan- cial centre, and much of it is modern by Gwyn Whilsmith ches and other buildings, some of them with bright, medieval pictures painted on their fronts. Many of them date back hundreds of years, making me realize that, in comparison, anything we have in Canada is not old at all. Eating in Switzerland was always a wonderful experience, and that night we enjoyed delicious Swiss veal in mushroom sauce and noodles, a deep blackberry torte and strong, black coffee served on a tiny restaurant balcony, bedecked with red geraniums, overlooking a narrow, cobbled street. Then, it was off to our beds at the Helmhaus for our much needed and first sleep in Switzerland. Next day, we headed south-west in our. rented car, stopping briefly at Lucerne and Thun.

Interlaken looked lovely, but just a bit too 'touristy' for my taste. Starting out again, we were soon driving through the gorgeous valley that was leading us to Sanaan. It look- ed exactly how we thought Switzerland should, with soft green slopes dotted with gabled chalets, and mountains rising up in the background (all of which I described in last week's column). One of the intriguing places we visited while staying at Sanaan was the enchanting, walled, medieval village of Gruyeres, which dates its on which no cars are allowed. is Please turn to paste 7 history back to 923.

As of September 1, all students with special needs have the right to an education program appropriate to their individual needs and abilities — a big step forward for our children, for our school boards, for our teachers, and for all those who believe in equality of educational opportunity. During the last five years, Ontario school boards, teacher education institutions, teachers, and administrators have worked together to make this goal a reality. Contact your local school board to find out about special education programs and services available in your area. Education is every child's right, and everyone's responsibility.
