Correspondent's travel notes
Home. again •
by Gwen
It --is a fortunate cir-
c_unstance that my three
sons are at present so
conveniently located to
aid me in my travels! My
,Christmas -trip to Calgary
was accompilished, by
very easy stages.
A pleasant drive to
Waterloo on • a Sunday
�:mornings for a family
Christm_ as party. It
snowed heavily for -the
rest of the day there and
the park across the way
was a winter wonderland.
My gifts from Ontario
-members of the family.
were opened..
:At -cleared in time for
the drive: to. Toronto with
Roger's family that
night. Doreen brought me
breakfast in bed and.. the
family gathered round
while I opened more gifts.
A drive to the Union
Station by taxi, ac-
companied by Roger.
Never one to linger, he
got me on the train ahead
of all the line-up. - em-
barrassing, but effective.
I was picked up by son
Larry at the station in
Ca-1-ga-ry just -in time to be
whisked off,to the Nellie
McClung school for the
Ghr}strn-ascon-cert --when
little David played on his.
auto -harp. A week later I
was deposited there by
Larry, Carol and family
for .my return trip, but
only after We all
ascended to the top of the
highest structure in
Calgary,> its tower ad-
jacent to the railway
station with its dazzling
spectacle of. the Rockies
beyondthe foothills.
At 'Toronto I was met
by Eric, Phil and
d:aughter Beth and driven
to Waterloo, where I
stayed overnight to
return in my own jalopy
to Bayfield in perfect
driving conditions on the
last day or the year.
VI -dwell on my perfect
travel -arrangements,
they were not ever thus.
A fewr_yanears ago, 'Eric
was in Brdon, Roger in
Philadelphia and Larry
' in Australia. '
I hope they're where
they'd rather be, the
arrangement certainly
suits me!

"And if there wasn't a
single word inside about
any of the political events
jolting the nation and the
• worlds -=-well that didn't
disappoint Abe ._..1,551
citizens of Moosamin.”
Its name is a grand spoof,
but does that matter? The
editorials, Maclean's
points out, which create.
the loudest feedbacks are
sthl- ,the tirades against
dog .owners. The weekly's
ancestor, The Moosomin
Courier, in its first issue
on. October 2, 1884
complained "Dogs • and
dogfights are the order of
the day in Moosomin."
I brought home"a copy
of the Rimbey Record -
:.from::. Alberta -for. edi:tor
Fitzgerald. 1 compare
with our paper,.: Rimbey
is a• small town near Red•
Deer. The papers are.
remarkably (or quite
'naturally?) similar - even
to the,Bill Smiley article -
dollars to doughnuts, he is
the , unnamed Ontario
humorist whose syn-
dicated column appears
in Moosomin's weekly.
Where does Bill -Smiley
live anyway'? I used to
think his home was
Clinton and'-Bartliff's his
-favor-ite-haunt.-
The Rimbey Record
flaunts a medallion
beside its name. It says
'CIA' Blue Ribbon Award
19791 - I seem° to. recall
awards to the Clinton
paper in the past. Why
not wave your flag on the
front page likewise, Jim?

Local Weeklies
Backbone of the
Country
There are 650 Canadian
weeklies. Their cir-
culation of 61/2 million - a
million more .than all the
country's-
dailies . - is .
rising by I0 percent a
year. These facts were
gleaned from
'MacLean's' January 7th.
The issue, fe,•turing
forecasts' for the •80s, was
`full of the gloom and

' sequently it was
reassuring to read that
