Actually, the drive on the larger. river, the drive extends well into the fall. On Quebec's St. Maurice River, scene of the world's biggest log drive, the. etioVe- naent of pulpwood is a thaw -to - freeze -up operation. ,. • The milor part of the drive usually attains its climax in mid -summer, but, after July 15, an equally important activity, the "sweep" takes place. The drivers go back some 200 miles up river to remove thousands of stray logs along the shore, an operation which accounts for a substantial portion of the drive. Last Saturday, with their poles, floating camps and colourful, two -stemmed, four men -boats, which they call "teteux" (suckers), they arrived at LaTuque, where the first down river plant is located. At LaTuque the local pulp mill operates a sorting gap, a huge, complex floating platform equipped with several convey- ° , and which removes the /wood belonging to that corn- cpany from the river, and sends the other logs over the dam .= their way to five mills below. It will be late September before the men, get on with the "lower -sweep." They will then have 100 mires and three more darns to go, before they and the logs they shepherd X) reach Three Rivers, Canada's newsprint capital. This will occur towards the end of October, and perhaps later, long after next season's cut- ting operations are waderViie • • ...r.Y.••• .„,r,,rif04*00R0.**4 . . 11, in the rich forests of the upper valley, The St. Maurice River Booni and Driving Company estima- tes that this year's drive, after the sweep has been completed, will involve in ,the neighbour- hood of 100 Million logs, total- ling around one million tons of newsprint enough to supply the enormous requirements of all the daily and weekly news- papers in North America for two months. period .reinained about the same —10,000 cases. Storage stocks of shell eggs reached a high of 249,000 cases this year about 8 per cent more than the peak stor- age holdings last year. However,' the combined total of eggs sold to these three outlets represents only about three__weeks' egg market- ings. Exports, up 85 per cent over a year ago' and storage hold- ings up eight per cent, represent only slightly more than average marketings .for a week. LLASHM 10 a.rn.

A series of lectutes followed, given by the ambassadors from these countries, and two days later we left for RCAF' Station Lachine near 'Montreal.

Hague, which gave us a chance to see how a Dutch family lived, We were all greatly surprised in the fact that the typical; Dutch family was very similar to our Own. Tour Dutch Towns During our stay in The Hague, we toured all surrounding towns under the guidance of Dutch Air Force officers and members of the Royal Netherlands Aero Club, who helped us in every 'way and saw that we had a wonderful time. While in The Hague we were fortunate enough to have dinner with Lt. -Gen. A. Baretta, chief of the Dutch Air Staff. We saw also many museums, one of which con- tained most of Rembrant's original paintings. On our tour, too, we tqok in the famous Peace Palace, which was built by all the coun- tries in the world in order to preserve peace. After leaving The Hague, we spent a few days at Deelen Air Force Base, which was an import- ant German airfield during the war. While at Deelen we again toured all the 4urroundin.g towns and cities and participated in a colorful Dutch festival a t Nijmegen, which was celebrating the fact that it was 700 years -old. On completion of the tour we flew south to Maastricht and the Limburg- provinces. Here we oured a Dutch coal mine and'were freatly impressed with the ad- vanced industry of Holland. Our tour also took in the famous old Alhmaar cheese market, and two excellentair shows in which we saw some splendid flying by the Dutch Air Force and the RAF. Ocean ,Cruise Our next temporary home was at Hilversung naval base and from there we • toured the great naval port of Den Helder and were taken for an ocean cruise on a naval training vessel, • We were also fortunate enough to tour the Dutch aircraft carrier, "Karel Doorman," which was certainly one of the highlights of the trip. A tour of the harbor installations at Rotter- dam also proved very interesting and after a few days of touring the surrounding country we left for Ypenburg Air Base, which will soon be one of the biggest bases in Europe. The colorful and historic Dutch towns all made the trip most in- teresting and proved to be an education in themaelves. The tour of Holland over, however, we left Schipol airport on August 13 for London, England, where we joined the main party ,of Canadian ,cadets for a thorough tour of the city. Here we saw the changing of the guard at I3uckingham Palace, Madame Tuissard's faineeis wax, works, Westminster Abbey and many more interesting places. , On August 117we left England by North Star aircraft and headed for Dorval via Iceland and' Goose ' Bay, Labrador. The return trip took about 18 1 hours and we certainly' were glad to see Dorval and home again.,. uesclay, 1SeftT., Zipper Cases $2.95 to sii.o0 Text Bois FoR GlonER 11 1) [sTRR couLEui ATE ECSTITITTE 01,14'1 cul., Lisc AVIV!
