It's interesting 10 meet the customers who come from all over Canada and many other parts of -the world, as well. For in- stance, last week we sold an old oil lamp to a couple visiting from West Germany, a cupboard to another young pair from Chicago, a necklace to a lady from England, an old child's mug to a charming man from France, ruby lamps to residents of Saskatoon, and a lovely piece of lace to a lady from Edmonton. I'm also intrigued by the items of- fered to us for sale and the people who come in off the street to sell them. Not long ago, an elderly lady carried in two hand painted plates telling the owner of the shop she was desperate for money. Where she came from we do not know since no one in the store had ever seen her before.

Seems to me... try knocking on doors and ferretting out garage sales. This week, one of them, a happy-go-lucky fellow, brought in two gorgeous pieces of Staffordshire he had picked up in somebody's garage. I have no idea what he paid for them, but I expect he made a healthy profit, and they riow fetch a handsome price in the store. We used to hear of unsuspecting souls selling off family treasures to unscrupulous buyers who turned up at their doors. I suspect this still hap- pens to some degree, but on the whole I think most everyone is much more knowledgeable to the worth of their antiques... although many still get a shock when they walk around the Nomads visit Guelph camp Fourteen families of the Ausable River Nomads Campers attended the 26th annual Campvention of the Na- tional Campers and Hikers of America in Guelph from July 12 to 19.

There's a lovely, inscribed silver pitcher, picked up at a local auction sale, which was given to the winners of the men's curling bonspiel in Saskatoon in 1936. As I polish it I can't help wondering how it came to Ontario and where the men are who played their hearts out 50 years ago. At that time curling fever hadn't reached Ontario, but in the West it was running high. Every tiny town had its sheets of natural ice in a draf- ty, old rink where young and old gathered to throw their rocks with great precision and sweep like mad with their long straw brooms. Curling was a game to be enjoyed, to be sure, but one to be taken very seriously. Even we little kids got in the act by making rinks in our back yards and using jam tins filled with frozen water with bits of wood sticking out for handles. It all came back to me when I went o see "The Black Bonspiel of Wully MacCrimmon," at the Huron Country Playhouse, last week. It's about a curlin : ame be and ima 'nation as t MR. AND MRS.
